You've been nothing but a pain in my ass since I got you, so you better behave and let me sell you, or this'll be the last auction you'll ever be in." >He gives her head a jerk before he let's go, and before he can pull his hand away, she bites him right on the pinkie finger. >"AAAAHH!" >Pulling his arm back, he brings it back down full force, backhanding her across the cheek. >"OW, You JACKASS!" >"I told you to BEHAVE!" >As he yelled the last word, he stomped on her chain, forcing her to hit the floor. >He turns towards you and the crooked man, and gives a toothy grin. >"Let's start with this one." >He let's up on her chain, allowing her to sit upright again. >"This ones a little feisty, but with a little discipline, she'll be obedient in no time. Let's start her bidding at... two hundred." >You raise your hand to place your bid. >"I have two hundred. Do I see two fifty?" >The crooked man doesn't say anything. He just keeps glancing at the yellow one with the same crooked smile. >The trader, seeing that he's not getting any more out of her, looks a little irritated. >"I guess not. SOLD! To this gentleman right here." >You walk up and pull out the proper amount of money. >After handing him the money, he hands you the chain and paperwork for the pony. >"Heh heh heh, enjoy your purchase, stranger." >You only give a nod in response, having learned a while ago not to engage in conversation with these people. >You turn and start to walk away, your new purchase in tow. >You get about ten feet away when she starts to pull against you. "Come, little one. Don't struggle." >"No, please, you have to help her!" >Turning to look at your pony, you see she has her eyes locked on the yellow mare being shown off by the trader. >Tears are streaming down the yellow ones face. >The crooked man is giving her a very hungry stare. >"Please? She's been my friend since we were filly's. I can't just leave her alone." >Giving one last glance at the yellow one, you turn around and start heading home again. "Sorry, little one. But I only had plans to buy one of you today." >You get a few more feet away before she starts to pull even harder. >"Please! I'll do anything you want! Just please get her out of there before something bad happens to her!" >Stopping in your tracks, you turn and face the blue one. "Does she really mean that much to you? Is she worth it?" >"I would do anything to guarantee her safety." >She gives you a look of pure determination. >Sighing in defeat, you start to head back. >The trader had already started her bidding at four hundred. >You get there right as he's about to seal the deal. "Four fifty." >The trader looks at you in confusion, and the crooked man gives you a look that could curdle milk. >"OK? Four fifty. Do I hear four seventy five?" >"Four seventy five!" >The crooked man gives you a shit eating grin. "Five hundred." >The shit eating grin drops and you can see him clenching his teeth. >"Five twenty five!" >The trader is starting to smile with the thought of the payout he's about to receive. "Five fifty." >Looking at the yellow one, you see she has stopped crying and is giving you a look of complete shock. >"Five seventy five!" >You see the crooked man starting to sweat. >He must be reaching his limit. >With one final grin, you shoot him out of the bidding once and for all. "Eight hundred." >The trader has the biggest grin in his face and the crooked mans jaw has dropped. >"Eight hundred!? Wow, um... do I hear eight twenty five?" >The crooked man just looks at you in defeat before turning around and walking away. >"Sold! To the gentleman from before!" >As you walk up to pay the trader, the blue one runs over and gives the yellow one a hug. >After all is said and done, you're on your way back home, with two ponies in tow. >The yellow one is leaning on the blue one while they walk behind you. >She had started crying again, but this time, her tears were from joy. >The blue one was smiling with tears in her eyes. >Smiling internally, you turn the corner to your estate. "Well little ones, we're here." >They both look up at your home, mouths agape in awe at the size of it. >The blue one is the first to speak. >"This is your house?" "Yes, now let's not dawdle. I want you to meet the others." >"The others?" "You're not my first pony purchases, little ones." >"Rainbow Dash." >you turn towards her and see she has a look of slight irritation. "Excuse me?" >"My NAME is Rainbow Dash, not 'little one'." >You kneel in front of her, and she dons a look of defiance. >Yellow one watches you two, fear filling her eyes. "Rainbow Dash, hmm?" >She slowly nods, still seeming apprehensive. "Well then. My name is Anonymous. You may address me as 'Sir'." >Rainbow glares at you. "Or Anon, if it better suits you." >She drops her defiant look and cocks her head in confusion. "And what is your name, little one?" you say to the yellow one. >She doesn't say anything, she just drops her head. >"Her name is-" "Shush!" you put your hand in front of Rainbow's face. "I want to hear it from her." >You put you hand on the yellow ones chin and gently pull her head up. "Go ahead and tell me. I don't bite." >She looks into your eyes for a second, looking to see if you mean what you say. >"Fl-flut...." "I'm sorry?" >Fl-fluttershy... s-sir." >With a warm smile, you stand up. "Well then Fluttershy. Rainbow Dash. Shall we?" >You turn back towards your house and start heading inside. >As you reach the front door, you open it and step aside. "Why don't you two step in first? Don't worry, I mean no ill will towards you two." >They both look at each other and start to head inside. >You walk in behind them and shut the door. "Welcome, little ponies, to your new home."   ~~~   >You are Rainbow Dash. >And you can't believe your eyes. >This humans house is huge! >It's even bigger than it looked from outside! >As you take in the sites, you hear the human start walking past you. >"So how do you like it?" >After walking in front of you, he turns and looks at you both. >You still don't trust this human, so your not going to give him the satisfaction of answerin- >"It's beautiful!" >Fluttershy! >"I've been in this world for a while now, and I've never seen any place so... so... extravagant!" >This makes the human smile. >He turns around and looks at it himself. >"Really? This old place? Why it's nothing more than-" >Ignoring him, you grab Fluttershy and pull her close to you. "What are you doing!?" you say in an extremely hushed, but urgent tone. >"I was just complimenting him on his house. Why?" >Her tone was hushed like yours, but calm. "We can't trust these humans! After everything they've done!" >"Rainbow Dash, we can trust him." "Yeah? And how do you know that?!" >"I looked into his eyes. I saw no malice in there." >You're about to retort when the human turned back to you. >"And that's all there is to this place. So nothing special." >You glare at him, while Fluttershy walks towards him. >"That was a wonderful story, sir." >... >Ohmigosh. >She just called him sir. >"Didn't you say something about other ponies?" >"Ah yes, I did. If you would be so kind as to follow me." >He takes off to somewhere in the house. >Fluttershy starts to follow him without hesitation. >You were thinking of just staying here, but if he decided to do something to her, you wouldn't be there to stop him. >You start to follow them deeper into the house. >As you three are walking, you notice that Fluttershy is holding a conversation with the human. >How can she put her trust in one of them. >They've done nothing but cause harm to ponykind. >As the three of you continue to walk, you hang back a bit. >They don't even notice you distancing yourself. >You continue walking for a couple more minutes before you notice they've stopped and are waiting for you to catch up. >"Are you alright, Rainbow Dash?" asks the human. >You just grunt in response. >"
