- >You are Anonymous
- >The batpony stallion currently standing in your doorway is starting to piss you off.
- >Of course, anybody standing on your porch at 2am would piss you off anyway.
- "Look sir, Gingersnap is asleep, come back tomorrow and we can talk this over in the morning."
- >The stallion takes a step forward, raising an accusatory hoof at you.
- >"How dare you give my miserable bastard son a name, you have no right to do such a thing!"
- >You blink, mentally reeling from from the stallion's outburst.
- >"Dad?"
- >You turn to look at the source of the young voice, concern crossing your face as you spot the colt sitting on the last
- few steps of the staircase.
- "Gingersnap, you shou-"
- >"You little shit! How dare you run off and try to replace me!" The stallion shouts, barging past you to loom over
- Gingersnap.
- >You stand dazed in front of your open door watching as the stallion towers over the colt, all the while verbally
- bludgeoning him into a quivering ball on the steps.
- >"DADDY!"
- >The colt's scream is cut off with an ear shattering "oof", the noise seeming to reverberate in your mind.
- >You finally snap into motion after the stallion lands another kick to Gingersnap's side, your gaze tunnels to focus on
- the once again raised hoof.
- >You bull rush the stallion, a satisfying thud, followed by loud cracking noises adds to the primal feeling coursing
- through your body.
- >Your hands shoot to the batpony's neck, making the other male's eyes bug out as you apply most of your body weight to
- his airway.
- >Already winded from the tackle, the stallion's struggles quickly die off as his eyes flutter closed.
- >You shakily gain your feet, spitting on the unconscious stallion as you do so, and turn towards the stairs.
- >You cringe as you see Gingersnap, curled in upon himself and quivering, wedged as far as he can get into the corner of
- a stair and the wall.
- >You cross the short gap in a few strides, leaning over to scoop the shuddering child into your arms.
- >Only to be knocked back onto your ass, ears ringing as the cowering foal lets loose a skree of mortal terror.
- >You try again, crawling over towards the colt, whose only response is to once again let out a terrified skree.
- >Wincing, you persist, moving to sit besides Gingersnap as he attempts to scramble away from you in fright.
- >Pulling the distressed foal into your lap you hold him tightly as you begin to rock back and forth.
- >Whispering the same lullaby from a few days ago, your eyes water as the struggling child bites into your forearm in a
- desperate plea to escape.
- >Sometime late, you aren't quite sure how long, you feel hooves gently remove the exhausted bundle of fur from your
- bloody arms.
- >You look up into the motherly eyes, vaguely registering the owner as your coworker's, Velvet Dusk.
- >"Come on Anon, let's get you two over to my house for the night."
