>You follow Rarity to the Private Suites tower, which is surprisingly close by >Thankfully >You come to the area outside of the towers, and see a sight that sends a shiver down your spine >A checkpoint >A guard pony stands at the desk, next to a sign that reads 'I.D. Required' >You hurriedly pull Rarity into a secluded corner with a nudge on her tail >"What is it darling?" Look, I can't explain right now, but there are two things you need to trust me on. One, I am innocent. Anything you hear anyp0ny say about me is a lie. Second, my life is at risk here, and I desperately need your help. If the wrong p0ny sees me, I'm dead >"So what's the problem?" See that checkpoint over there? Can't happen, for me at least. He recognizes me, I'm dead. >"So what do you want me to do?" I don't know, can you do a teleportation spell? or an invisibility spell, or.., i don't know- >She cuts you off >"I have an idea" 1/?   >You watch as she walks over to the guard, shopping bags dragging behind her on the ground >You hear from around the corner >"Oh, if only some big, strong, handsome pony could help me carry these bags to my room! They're just soooo heavy" >You watch as the guard pony walks away with him, and she looks back and winks at you >Well that was easy >You take your chance and quick-walk past the gate and into a courtyard of sorts >You see a bush to your right and step into them >They'll make a good hiding spot >You wait for about ten minutes >Every so often you peer between the leaves and branches to check if they were coming back >Though probably hear them >Well, her, you'd probably hear her >Ten minutes turns into twenty, and twenty into thirty >Finally, you hear her familiar voice float down the steps 2/?   >"Thank you for the help darling!...and thank for the help...unpacking" >Unpacking? >Unpacking!?! >You were crouching in a bush fearing for your life while she got busy with the guard! >In the bush next to you, Sweetie Belles pops out and yells >"Oh come on!" >Before dissapearing back into the bush >Damn her and her bush bending powers >The guard retakes his post, and you dart for the staircase >Rarity already started on her way back up, but you catch up to her Unpacking? You were getting some while I squatted in a bush, fearing that the most powerful pony in Equestria would rain hellfire down on me at any moment?!? >"Oh yes, well its just,....it had been so long......and one thing led to another......heh heh....." >You don't respond, because you've both arrived at the suite 3/?   >Rarity trots in and takes a seat on the bed >Which is still un-made and disheveled >And is that...? >You decide to take a seat on the chair with the seat-cover >"So, what is this I hear about you being a fugitive?" >So you tell her everything >About Fluttershy, and the dreams >About Celestia and Luna, and how you might destroy the universe just by existing >It felt good to have it all out in the open with somep0ny >She just was quiet afterwards, then finally she said >"Oh Anon, I'm so sorry, for everything you've had to go through here. Not all ponys are like that, I swear!" I know Rarity. So, you're ok with having a fugitive stay with you? >"You can stay here as long as you need darling. Or until the world explodes from you doing so, whichever comes first" >She smiles and you laugh, getting up off the chair and giving her a hug 4/?   >Later that night, you layed out the sleeping bag you found in the closet >Rarity had nodded off a while ago, you had stayed up to think out a course of action to take tommorow >Nothing had come to mind >As you lay down, you wondered what the next day would have in store for you >You fell asleep ................ >You woke up the next morning feeling refreshed >You hadn't felt this good since you got here! >Well, you guess thats the power of a goodnight's sleep >Wait............ >A good nights sleep! >No dreams! >No Earth-body mind control! >Haha! You didn't know if it was a good sign, but at this point, anything that didnt take you closer to destroying all life in the galaxy was good! Rarity! >She doesn't wake up, but murmurs in her sleep >".....No picklehead42.....Pickles don't go there........." >You diregard her babble as a bad dream >As you celebrate, a knock rings out from the door 5/?   >You hurry over to the bed and wake Rarity up, forcefully >"Anon, I was having the most..interesting dream" Theres somp0ny at the door! >"Oh, go, hide!" >You walk into the bathroom and close the door >You hear Rarity open the door, followed by >"Oh, goodmorning your highness" 6/6
