False Past and Broken Promises
There was a knocking on the man's door as he sat down on his couch. Isaac walked over and opened it to see three familiar fillies. "Hey girls. What's up?"
"We need a hand with something." Scootaloo said.
"With what?" He asked as he let the girls inside.
"Ya see, Ms. Cherilee assigned us a book report and we need a book." Applebloom started.
"Why not go to Twilight?" He asked.
"Twilight would recommend that we do it on Star what his name," She said with a groan. "and we kinda want to really impress her."
"So we thought that we'd do it on a book that no pony has ever read." Scootaloo added.
"Since you're from another dimension, we figured that you might have a book we could borrow." Sweetie Belle said with a smile.
"I'm sure I have something you might be able to find interesting." The man then led the small fillies into his study where all the books were kept. "Are you three working on this project together?"
"Eeyup!" Applebloom said with a smile.
"Okay, so what are you three looking for?"
"I want something with action!" Scootaloo said.
"Something romantic." Sweetie Belle said.
"Something ah can relate to." The farmer said. Isaac ran a hand through his hair and thought for a moment.
"Let me see what I can find." He said with a gulp. The girls started looking around the bookshelves. One book in particular caught Applebloom's eye.
"Hey girls check this one out." She said as she held up the book. The two fillies made their way over to their friend and looked at the cover.
"The Diary of a Young Girl." The girls read the synopsis as Isaac walked back into the room.
"Sorry girls, but I couldn't find much." The three fillies then ran up to him with the book in hand.
"What about this one?" Isaac looked at the cover and gulped.
"Um...look girls there are some....complicated things in this book and-" He was cut off as the girls all put on their best puppy dog face. "Fine, just be careful with it. It's the only copy I have."
"Thanks!" As Sweetie Belle raised her hands in victory the rumored 'Curse of the Crusaders' struck. The book flew out of the mare's hand and hit one of Isaac's glass fitted pictures of him and his parents. The photo fell to the ground and the glass shattered. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry Isaac!" The filly yelled as tears formed in her eyes.
"It's alright Sweetie Belle, just some broken glass." He said as he walked over to the photo. As he cleaned up the glass something was attached to the back of the picture. The three fillies stood on their tip toes but could only make out a few words. Sweetie noticed that the man's hands were shaking and his face was contorting as he read the piece of paper.
"You okay Isaac?" She asked with a gulp.
"I'm....fine." He managed to say. "Girls, you'd better get started on that report." He said in a flat tone. Applebloom walked over and picked up the book.
"Are you sure you're-"
"Just go!" He yelled. The three girls immediately jumped at the volume of the man's voice. The trio charged out the door and ran outside. Isaac stood frozen as he looked down at the sheet of paper. He set it down on the desk and slammed his fist into the wall making a hole in the wall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Twilight was sitting in the library talking with Rarity.
"You're seriously going to go through with it?" Twilight asked.
"Yes," She said with a sigh. "I do care for him, just not in that way and I tried Twilight, I really did." Twilight let out a sigh and looked at her friend.
"It's okay, I guess you gave him a shot and that's all that counts." The mare was then cut off as the door opened to reveal the three young fillies.
"Sweetie Belle, did you get started on that book report yet?" Rarity asked as she eyed her sister.
"We just got the book." She said as she showed them the novel. The group then saw Spike come down from upstairs and yawned. Rarity gulped as she saw the young dragon.
"I don't think I've read that one before." Twilight said as she looked at the cover. "Did you three get this from Isaac?"
"Yeah and ah think somethings bugging him." Applebloom said.
"What makes you say that?" Spike asked as he descended the stairs.
"Well, he was acting weird." Sweetie Belle said in a low tone. "One minuted he's his usual happy self then the next he yells at us for no reason." The filly said with a groan. "I mean, what's up with that?"
"No reason?" Rarity asked as she cocked an eyebrow.
"Well," Scootaloo said as she rubbed her head. "we kinda did break a photo."
"Girls! That photo was probably important!" Twilight said with a sigh.
"Curse of the Crusaders strikes again." Spike said with a chuckle.
"Yeah, but he found some weird piece of paper behind the photo." Applebloom said. "It looked like some sort of official document ya see in town hall." The two mares looked at one another in surprise.
"Did you see what it said?" Rarity asked.
"I couldn't get a good look at it, but I did see one word that looked familiar." Sweetie Belle said. "It was a long word and it started with an A."
"It had some fancy lettering on it too." Scootaloo said.
"Hmm." Twilight said as she put a finger to her lips. "Some sort of document with a letter A." She sighed. "Anything else you can remember?"
"It looked like it had the 'tion' ending. Like in action." Sweetie Belle said.
"Adaptation?" Rarity asked.
"Closer, but no." The farmer said. Twilight thought for a moment and gulped as the word came to her.
"Adoption?"
"Yeah! That's it!" Scootaloo yelled. Both mares looked at one another and gulped.
"I thought Isaac said that he was raised by his parents?" Rarity asked. "Who hides an adoption form?"
"If the child doesn't know." Twilight said. Rarity's eyes shrank as she made the connection. "Rarity get the others and-" The mare was cut off as they heard a deafening noise come from outside. The group rushed out just in time to see the human wearing a black leather jacket with red trim, a black helmet that covered his head with the visor pulled down riding an odd machine with two wheels. The human also had a backpack strapped to his body.
The mares looked in awe as the machine rocketed down the street with a cyan blur chasing after it. Dash flew along side it and tried to get the driver's attention. Isaac didn't even look as he twisted the throttle and he shot forwards, leaving the mare in the dust. Dash slowed down and came to a stop as the human drove off down the road. Twilight, Rarity and Spike then came running up to her.
"Can somepony tell me what the buck I just saw?" The cyan mare asked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The man drove far out of town and cut off on a dirt road. He stopped as he spied a cave and slowly drove into it. He stopped the cycle and threw his helmet off. Isaac grunted and threw the helmet to the dirt floor as he sat down and leaned against a rock.
They lied all those years.
My entire life.
All they did was lie.
"Who am I?" Isaac yelled as he fired a bolt of blue magic from his palm. The rock across from him instantly shattered as the bolt hit the hard surface. The man looked in horror at the shattered remains of the rock. He looked at his palm and saw a dull blue light glow underneath his skin. "What am I?" His vision started to alter and he found himself back in his mind.
He looked ahead to see a dark cloud of blue smoke in front of him. "Great now what?" He asked as he got in a fighting stance. The smoke the started to colonize and take form. Once it was done, a tall dark blue Alicorn mare stood before him wearing odd armor. She rivaled Celestia in height, but looked more like Princess Luna. Her fur was jet black and her hair was like the night sky.
"Luna?" He asked as he relaxed his stance.
"Close, but no." The being said as it slowly walked towards him. "I'm not as nice as her." She said with a wicked laugh.
"Okay, so who are you?" He asked as he watched her like a hawk.
"That depends on what you say to my offer." She said as she circled around him taking in his full body. "I can show you how to use my magic."
"Your magic?" He asked as he looked at her. The beings eyes were light cyan and were spliced.
"Did you honestly think that you were a natural at magic only after you got some of our blood?" Isaac connected the dots and his eyes shrank. He immediately backed away from the shade.
"That makes you Nightmare Moon then." He said with a gulp.
"Well, it looks like you have some brains after all." She said with a chuckle. "That's right, I'm Nightmare Moon, but you can just call me Moon." The dark girl said with a grin.
"Getting pretty friendly all of a sudden." He said as he frowned.
"Well, we are considered roommates." As Isaac turned to walk away, the shade appeared before him. "I can help you, you know." She said with a smile.
"How?"
"I will teach you magic that no one, not even Celestia or Luna know about." She said as she got closer to him. "Just imagine it, the ability to do whatever you want whenever you want."
"And you're just going to teach me just like that?" He said in a suspicious tone.
"Well, I do require one thing from you." She said with a smug smile.
"That would be?" The dark mare leaned so that she was next to his ear.
"Pleasure." She said in a soft tone. Isaac's eyes shrank as she extender her tongue and licked his ear. "It get's lonely on the moon." She said in a pleading tone. Isaac gulped and backed away.
"Forget it!" He bellowed. "No way in hell." He said as the dark mare pouted.
"Oh well, can't blame a mare for trying." She said with a coy smile. The shadow then grabbed his hand in a shockingly strong grip. Isaac grunted and tried to break free. He felt a burning sensation on his hand and the mare let go. "When you decide you desire my power, just ask allow some blood to spill on the seal."
"Don't hold your breath Moony." He said as he clenched his fist.
"We shall see." The dark mare said with a smile. "Until next time." She said as she gave him a wink and blew a kiss. Isaac rolled his eyes as the dream world collapsed and he looked at the cave once more. He looked out in the cave entrance and saw that it was getting dark out. The man heard a few rocks being crushed under feet and immediately stood up.
"Who's there?" He yelled. Nothing but silence filled the cave. "I'm warning you, I'm in no mood for games. Show yourself!" He said as he got into a fighting stance.
"P-Please, don't hurt me." A shaken voice said. Isaac looked to see a cloaked figure standing in the cave.
"Mind if I see you're face."
"You'll just run away and scream." Isaac registered the voice as a girl's.
"Believe me, I've seen a lot of crazy things these past few months." He said as he relaxed his stance. "I give you my word that I won't run away." The hooded figure stepped forward. As she stepped into the light Isaac saw that she possessed no fur and that her skin was Ivory black. A jagged horn also sprouted from her forehead. The creature's hair was a light blue as was her tail
She also seemed to have a pair of wings coming from her back. Unlike Dash's and Fluttershy's wings, hers looked more insect like. The creature's eyes were light blue and spliced. "Who and what are you?" He asked in a calm tone.
"M-my name is Isis, I'm a Changeling." She said in a frightened tone. "Who and what are you?"
"Isaac, Human." He said as he walked closer. The creature then felt lightheaded and started to fall. Isaac rushed forward and caught her. "You okay?"
"I'm just weak." She said as he gently sat her down on a rock. "I haven't eaten in a few days."
"Hang on." Isaac walked back over to his bag and pulled out some food he hastily put in his bag before riding out. "Here." He said as he handed her an apple. The Changeling let out a sigh and reluctantly ate it. "Don't like apples?"
"It's not that," She said with a sigh. "Changelings can sustain themselves on food, but it doesn't give us as much sustenance." She said in a flat tone.
"What do Changeling usually feed on?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Love."
"How do you feed on love?"
"It's.....complicated." She said with a sigh.
"I'm just gonna chock it in with magic." Something then rose from the back of his mind. "Wait, a friend of mine told me that Changelings attacked Canterlot."
"Yeah, that's why I'm here in this cave." She said with a sigh.
"Hiding from the cops?"
"That and my own people." She said with a sigh.
"Your own people?" He asked in confusion.
"Yes, I hide from them." She said in a low tone. Isis lowered her head and sniffled.
"Hey, I didn't mean to make you upset. I'm sorry." He said in a serious tone.
"It's okay."
"Why are you hiding from them?" He asked as he sat closer to her.
"I opposed the attack on Canterlot." Isaac looked at her in shock. "I didn't think it was right so now I'm banished." She said with a sigh.
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay." She said with a sniffle. "I chose this path, it was either exile or death, which is the same thing to a Changeling."
"How so?"
"When a Changeling is exiled their link to the hive is cut off and we are branded as traitors." The woman rolled up her sleeve to reveal an odd symbol branded into her skin. "Changelings will eventually die if they do not feed on love regularly." She said with a cough.
"How long ago did you feed?" He asked.
"A week, a record amongst most Changelings."
"I can get you help! My friend is a Unicorn and can-"
"No! They'll have me killed!" She said in a scared tone.
"You didn't even take part in the attack." He fired back. "I'm on good terms with both Princess's I can help you."
"It doesn't matter." She said as a few tears formed in her eyes. "Changelings were always despised and treated like dirt, even before the attack." Isaac moved closer and comforted her. "Any Changeling sighted is to be arrested, detained and deported." She said with a cry. "They'll kill me if I return." Isaac put an arm around her and sighed. "I can never go back."
"That's something we have in common." He said as the Changeling looked at him. He said with a sigh. "I just found out that I was adopted and I'll never know who my real parents were." Isis saw the sadness in his eyes.
"I'm sorry to hear that. At least you were loved."
"That's debatable."
"They raised you as their own, even though you weren't theres to raise." She said with a frown.
"What about your parents?" He asked.
"Changelings are born in a hive system." Isis groaned. "We're taken when we are young to serve the hive." She said in a low tone. "I never knew my parents, I was taken at the age of six and put in deployment as a low level drone." She said with a shrug.
"So how do you feed on love?"
"We impersonate somepony they love and feed off the emotions."
"Okay that's a bit underhanded."
"We do what we have to do in order to survive." She said in a cross tone.
"What happens to the one you impersonate?"
"I've never killed anyone if that's what you're wondering." She said in a rough tone. "I usually knock them out and cocoon them."
"Cocoon them?" He asked as he immediately stood up.
"I don't have the strength for something like that." The changeling then cringed and immediately started coughing up green liquid.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm at my limit." She grunted. "I'll die soon."
"Wait, there has to be something I can do." He said in a concerned tone.
"There isn't." She said as she felt herself becoming weaker. "Except."
"Except what?"
"I feed on you." Isaac cringed as the thought of her using him for a food supply. Isaac bit his lip as the woman collapsed on the ground.
"Okay," The Changeling looked at him in confusion. No one had ever willingly offered to provide her with love. "how does this work. Do you bite my neck like a Vampire or something?"
"A what?" She asked.
"Will I turn into a Changeling if you feed on me?" The woman shook her head. "Okay, fine. What do I do?"
"Why are you trying to save me?" She asked as she coughed again.
"We're alike. I'm from another dimension with no way back." He said as he crouched down and slowly lifted her head. "I can never go home and the fact that you spoke out against violence proves that you are a kind soul."
"But what I've done-"
"Is nothing compared to what I have done." He said in a flat tone. "So just shut up and do what you have to." Isis gulped and focused the last bit of magic she had. A bright light filled the cave and Isaac shielded his eyes. When he opened them again he saw the form of a young human woman with crimson red hair and light green eyes.
Oh god, anything but her. He thought. The figure then started to glow bright red and Isaac felt some of his strength being sapped away. Isis felt bad for the human and put a hand on his back. The man refused to look at the impostor and held his head in shame. Isis felt rejuvenated and quickly returned to her original form.
"Isis, do me a favor." He said with a pant.
"What?"
"Never, ever take that form again!" He said with a sigh.
"I'm sorry. I automatically take the form of the most loved one of whoever I'm feeding on the most." She said with a gulp. "Thank you." Isaac stood up and turned away.
"If you ever decide to move out of this cave." He said with a sigh. "Then my door in Ponyville is open."
"You don't have to do that." She said with a sigh.
"It's the least I can do for a friend who's down on their luck." He said with a weak smile.
"F-friend?" She asked.
"Well, considering I just let you use me as food I'd say that makes us something." He said with a shrug. "Plus, I can tell that you're a good person or Changeling in this case." Isis gulped and shook his hand.
"Hopefully, we can skip the feeding next time we see each other." Isis said with a chuckle. Isis gave her a quick hug before walking back to his vehicle. He put the helmet on his head and started the engine. He looked towards the sky and saw that it was starting to rain. He revved the engine twice before speeding off back towards his home.
An hour later he came across the familiar small town. He looked at his watch and saw that it was close to ten o'clock. He cut the engine and kept it in neutral. As he rolled by Carousel Boutique the door opened and a voice called out.
"Isaac is that you?" Isaac removed his helmet and squinted as his eyes got use to the light and saw the robed figure of the white Unicorn mare. "Hurry and get inside before you catch a cold."
"I'm fine. My house is just-" He was cut off as he saw the mare's sapphire like eyes pierce him. The man let out a sigh and rolled his vehicle towards her. After the man covered it with a black tarp he had packed in his bag he made his way inside.
"What in the name of Celestia were you doing out there?" She said as she put her hands on her hips.
"I was just coming back from a ride."
"On that...what did you call it?"
"A motorcycle." He said as he sat down on the couch. "I do that whenever I'm stressed out and I needed to clear my head." Rarity then remembered what the CMC had said earlier that day. The seamstress sat down next to her friend and wrapped him in a hug.
"Sweetie told me. I'm so sorry Isaac." She said as the man returned the hug.
"It's fine I-"
"No, it's not." She said in a strong tone. "If you keep bottling these emotions up then eventually you're going to explode and do something you're going to regret."
"Well what should I do Rarity?" He yelled. "It's not like I can go talk to them or anything!" The mare gulped. "I can't find out who my real parents are, or go to my fake one's graves! I'm stuck here with nothing!"
"Your house is-"
"Can you really call a house a home when the people you love are gone?" Rarity ran out of words. "That's what I thought." He said as he sat down. Rarity gulped and bit her lip.
"I know that you've felt alone since you got here, but you need to see that you're not." She said as she leaned her head on his shoulder. "I know that we can never fill that place in your heart, but we're trying to help you as best we can."
"I know. It's just," He started with a sigh. "nearly all my life I've followed the path that was set out for me and I was betrayed at almost every turn." Rarity gasped. "I do trust you guys, but I can't help but keep my guard up. It's a defense mechanism and it's not fair to you."
"Or to yourself either." The mare said in a soft tone. "You have a lot of ponies who care about you."
"You mean Dash, AJ and Shy?" The white mare nodded. "Yeah I know."
"I was talking about me." Isaac's eyes shrank as he stared into the mare's crystal blue eyes. Rarity put her hand on his and slowly closed the gap between them. She softly pressed her lips against his and moaned. The man was stunned at the action. His mind was in confusion as it is. He acted on basic instinct and returned the kiss.
Rarity broke the kiss and stood up. Isaac's eyes widened as she opened her robe and revealed her naked white form. Her breasts were like two orbs that were begging to be held. The mare gently kneeled so that one leg was beside his. Isaac slowly reached inside her robe and ran his hand through her pristine fur. Rarity locked lips with the man again and slowly moved her tongue inside his mouth.
The man slowly moved his hands up her hourglass form and found themselves on the mounds. Rarity gasped as he slowly started to squeeze them, making her moan. Rarity broke the kiss and looked into the man's deep blue eyes.
"Let's...take this upstairs." She said as she panted. Isaac quickly got to his feet and scooped the mare up in his arms.
"What about your sis?"
"Sleepover at Sweet Apple Acres." She said as she put her arms around his neck. "So we have all night long." She said in a lust filled voice. As the two got to her door Isaac balanced on one foot and used his right to kick in the door. "You beast!" She said in a playful tone. Isaac then saw that around her room were several half burnt down scented candles.
As they got into the room, Isaac spun around and ganged the mare's position so that she was upright. Her legs were wrapped around his waist and her back was flat against the wall. "Oh Isaac~" She purred. The human started to smother her neck and chest with passionate kisses. The mare could feel his clothed member stiffening and press against her marehood.
Isaac then balanced the mare and wrapped his arms around her back. He held on to her as he neared the bed. He gently laid the mare down on her back and took a moment to thoroughly look at her. Her hourglass figure accented her snow white fur perfectly. The mare slowly sat up and let the open robe slide off her majestic body. As she laid back down she motioned with her pointer finger to join her on the bed.
Isaac slowly crawled on top of her and pressed his lips against hers. Rarity's horn glowed and the man felt as though his clothes had become ghosts and phased off his body. "I'm glad Twilight taught me that de-fabrication spell." The man could smell the lust coming from the mare's nether regions and slowly snaked a hand down. The mare squealed in delight as he started to play with her button.
Isaac used his other hand to cup her breast. The smell from her snatch and the candles were intoxicating. Rarity was moaning more than ever as she was reaching her climax. Isaac felt the mare's walls clamp around his finger and a familiar wetness coat them. He looked up at the red faced mare who was panting. "Please, I can't wait any longer." She begged.
Isaac moved so that he was directly over the mare. His rock hard cock poked at her moist entrance. As Rarity moaned Isaac pressed his lips against hers and forced her mouth open. As their tongues danced, Isaac slowly slid his rod into her moist caverns. He wrapped his left hand around the mare's body to give her back support and used his right palm to massage one of her breasts.
The mare wrapped her arms and legs around the man's scared body. Her tail was firmly gripped around the man's right leg. Rarity was in pleasure as the man picked up speed and increased his pace. Rarity could feel the man's pillar poking at her womb. Rarity was now gripping tight enough to draw blood from the man's back. Isaac felt a familiar pressure building in his rod.
"Isaac, I'm-"
"Me too." He said as he gave one last thrust. Rarity clamped her eyes shut as she felt the overwhelming pleasure course through her body. Isaac soon felt the day's events take it's toll and he slowly climbed off the mare and laid on his back next to her. The mare smiled and used her magic to pull the covers over their bodies. Rarity rested her head on the man's chest and the two soon drifted off to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Isaac woke up with the sun shining on his face. As he slowly sat up he felt something pull him back down. The man froze and looked to see the white mare smiling at him. "Morning dear." She said with a smile.
Oh no. The man thought. No, no, no, no, no! He yelled at himself. Isaac quickly jumped out of bed and looked at the mare in fear.
"Isaac? What's wrong?"
"We....you and I....last night." He was too freaked out to form proper words.
"Best night I've had in a very long time." She said with a giggle. The mare sat up taking the sheet with her so she covered her exposed areas. Isaac felt himself becoming ill and his face turned almost as white as Rarity's fur. "Are you alright dear?"
"I broke my promise to Spike." He said in disgust. "I had sex with you." Rarity saw the dilemma and summoned her robe. She wrapped the soft garment around her body before she walked over to his side.
"Spike and I are no longer together." She said with a sigh. Isaac looked at her as though she had lobsters crawling out of her ears.
"When and why did you break up?"
"I broke the news to him yesterday and I realized that I do care about Spike, but in a more...big sister little brother way. Like what he and Twilight have." She said in a low tone.
"How'd he take it?"
"I explained myself and he seemed to accept it, but he was very unhappy." The mare said with a sigh. "He is a kind dragon and will make somepony happy."
"Is that supposed to make me feel better?" He asked as he walked over and pulled his pants on. "How do you think he's going to react when he finds out about this?" He said as he made gestures between them. Rarity bit her lip at the words. "I'm sorry, I'm not trying to make you feel bad when I'm the one at fault and-"
"Your fault?" She said in a perplexed tone. "It's nobody's fault. We are two adults that were both in an emotional state and acted on it."
"Exactly." He said in a flat tone.
"Now you're confusing me Isaac." She said with a groan.
"I'm not supposed to get emotional." He said in a flat tone. "Emotions are just an obstacle to overcome and should be stowed."
"What idiot told you that?"
"My fath....The man who raised me." Rarity gripped her hair and let out a sigh.
"I made the choice to sleep with you just as you did with me. We have an equal share of the blame." The man finished getting dressed and made his way towards the door. "Where are you going?"
"To get what's coming to me." He said in a cold tone. "I hope to see you again Rarity." He said with a small nod and smile. Rarity stood frozen as the door closed.
Isaac started up his motorcycle and quickly sped towards the library. He stopped his vehicle outside the tree and stormed in to see Twilight at her desk. The lavender mare instantly ran towards him.
"Isaac, I heard what happened and-" She was stopped as he raised a hand.
"We'll discuss that later. Where's Spike?" The lavender mare saw the seriousness in the man's eyes and gulped.
"He's upstairs. I take it you heard about him and Rarity?"
"Something like that." He said as he walked past her. Twilight's eyes shrank as she smelled a familiar scent brush across her nose. The mare connected the dots and glared at the human as he hurried up the wooden steps. "Spike?" He said as he knocked on the door. The wooden door opened to reveal a drowsy dragon.
"What?"
"Mind if I come in?" Spike shrugged and opened the door for him. Isaac closed it behind him and thought of how he should tell him. "I....heard about you and Rarity." He said as the sick feeling creeped back into his system.
"Yeah." Spike said with a shrug.
"What exactly did Rarity say?"
"That she does like me, just in a more 'friend' way," He said as he hung his head in shame. Isaac felt a small light of relief shine on him. "and that she's interested in some other guy." The light then vanished and guilt crept over him. "Why are you asking?"
"Spike," Isaac started. "it pains me to tell you this but," He said as he hung his head. "I'm the other guy." A long silence fell between the two Isaac could see the rage boiling in the young dragon's eyes. "Last night....Rarity and I...I swear if I could change what happened then-" Was all he could get out before the dragon threw a punch at the man.
Isaac dodged it and wrapped the dragon in a full nelson. Spike was about to scream but his mouth was quickly covered by a fleshy hand. "Look Spike, you're pissed I get that." Isaac said in a hushed tone. "You have every right to hate my guts, but this isn't the time, or the place to settle this." The dragon squirmed in the hold. "I'm gonna let you go and we'll decide when and where we can settle this." The human let the dragon go.
Spike's eyes were like daggers that pierced the man's soul. "Now we can either talk about this or we settle it with our fists like a man and dragon."
"I'll take the second option." He spat out.
"When and where?"
"It's ten o'clock right now right?" Spike asked. Isaac looked at his watch and nodded. "You know where Rarity goes gem hunting?" The human nodded again. "Be there at noon."
"Public or private?"
"Definitely private."
"Hand to hand?" The man asked.
"Doesn't matter. Just none of those gun things."
"Knives?" Isaac asked.
"If you want, won't do you much good though."
"First to surrender or first to be knocked out loses?"
"Yup." Spike said in a flat tone. Isaac shook the dragon's claw and felt the density of the scales. Isaac walked out of the room and saw Twilight waiting for him. She quickly walked up to him and slapped him across the face.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" She yelled. "They just broke up!"
"I found that out this morning." He said as he rubbed the sore spot.
"Did you two work things out?" She asked in a hopeful tone.
"We came to an understanding." He said in a flat tone. Twilight sighed and returned to her work as the man walked out of the library. As he approached his motorcycle he looked back at the upstairs window to see the dragon glaring at him.Isaac gave him a small nod before speeding off towards his home.
