Hey everyone! First of all a happy new year to all who celebrate new years as we enter the new year of 2019! its been a long year and another curse hitting my family every time we go to visit our family members in Baltimore! And by curse I mean we caught the flu! Every time we go there we get the flu and we even made preparations this time to avoid this! Enough of my ranting as I move onto everything else! I was able to type up at least one chapter for several stories its been a while since I updated! Which reminds me to have to get a chapter typed up for the Requester of the story Growing Pains!

Forgive me for my procrastination I just have been unable to properly sit down long enough to type enough for that story to make even a chapter! Also I have a large announcement to make concerning two stories!

Someone had come up and requested to be a Beta and when given the choice he picked AOMFV and I picked between two he had thought he could work with and picked Silent Singer from the two as the other was one I promised I myself would work on!

The name of the beta is Tarnum427!

He sent back a chapter for Silent Singer I decided to post today instead as I wanted to do the reveal on upload day! Don't really have much to say except that I'm going to do my best to type up chapters for stories I've barely updated! Have a happy new year and hope you all made your new years resolutions!

Its been two weeks since that little talk I had with the Pegasus. Things have been real quiet despite the tension between the ponies that live here against the ponies that were brought here to work. The workers do their best to stay out of their way and unfortunately due to the incident a few weeks ago their handlers let some of them mess around with the girls. Thankfully Big Mac was around the corner whenever it happened as I was kept busy with finances and talking with the project leader of how everything is going. From what I know they should all be done by next week and I told them to take their time... with also the threat that if things were horrible due to them rushing to get done I would hunt them all down and bury them underneath the newly planted apple trees...

that had made her eyes go wide when I told her and she instantly rushed out and began yelling at some of her handlers. What she was yelling I had no idea but I had a feeling she had told them to do just what I told them what not to do and took the threat to heart. I also saw more of the four Pegasus who had originally barricaded themselves into the main bedroom. They came down and talked to the others in quiet whispers but stopped talking and glared at me whenever I entered a room and would resume their talks with the others when I walked out.

The two ponies also haven't woken up yet... if they didn't wake up by noon today I was going to bring them to a doctor to check up on them. While I may have been told that they were alright body wise as they were all healed up I would rather get the words from a professional Although maybe if I wasn't an idiot I would of called one in soon after they first arrived but yet I didn't due to the fact my brother had come and dropped them off.

Haven't heard anything from my so called family either which... slightly frightened me to be honest. While I'm glad that they haven't given me any form of communication with all the things that have been happening I couldn't help but be worried that something else big was going to happen. With the lottery that's coming up in two weeks was made even more frightening due to this peaceful time that's been happening. Although maybe I'm just being overly paranoid... I couldn't help but be afraid and worried.

Sitting on the porch I overlooked the entire front half of my property as humans and anthro's alike worked nonstop. With the finishing touches on the large apple tree farm the three apple family members all quickly set to work on them making sure they were all going to be big and strong so they could get a good harvest once the apples come in. Fluttershy was once more handling the animals with the assistance of the two other young fillies that are on the property while the rest mainly assisted with watching the cows, cleaning the barn, as well as cleaning the house. They haven't started yet on the massive kitchen that would be needed for Pinkie Pie to do large batches of her treats but from what I was told they would begin it tomorrow should everything they were building today went as planned.

Deciding to check up on how everyone was doing I stood up and made sure I still had a pocket knife with me as I didn't want to reveal anymore of my hidden gun locations on my property. Something I learned when living with my grandfather was learning how to throw knives as well as being able to shoot accurately... throwing knives was his way of dealing with the Pendragon Curse so how could you blame him.

Walking around I could see some of the companies handlers tense up as I walked past them as well as tense up when I looked in their general direction. They were afraid of me which was a good thing in my opinion at the moment as it would mean they wouldn't do anything to drastic in the future. Seeing everything was going good with the others in the barn I noticed that the sun was very high in the sky which meant a single thing... it was time to make a call for a doctor... making my way back to the house I gave a small wave back to Sweetie Belle who waved at me when she noticed me before she dropped the chicken that was trying to escape her and chased after it in a panic. Giving a small chuckle I walked into the house and up the stairs before quickly entering the two ponies rooms.

Giving them a sad gaze I walked over and checked their foreheads and quickly checked their bandages as I found they were still all healed up just that they wouldn't wake up. Fluttershy had been able to set up something to force food down into their stomachs with water as well but it wasn't as good as it should have been. Pulling out my laptop as I walked back into the living room I opened the page and brought up a search for anthro medical assistance.. and I sat in shock at what I saw...

there was no such thing as a place who would give assistance to an anthro due to a big belief saying that should a anthro be unable to work then they were not worth the effort of healing and were put down... although I did see that there could be a small chance of getting a anthro that worked at a hospital but the chances were extremely slim. I could go to the Center and see if I could find out anything for a anthro that could be of help but that would be a waste of a trip if I did nothing else. I went shopping a few days ago and we already were filled up with all the necessities although once the large kitchen was put in I would have to go with Pinkie and Mac to get more supplies so she could do her thing...

but before I could think further another massive problem appeared in my head. I couldn't leave them alone here with the company. They would somehow twist it into their favor to get the girls and Big Mac in trouble and they would most likely succeed. The problem is unless I helped the two comatose anthro's something could develop and we wouldn't even know it. Going to the Center was a priority that had to be done those weeks ago but was all forgotten about until today...

pulling out my phone I quickly called Ben knowing he wasn't on duty at the moment and was most likely out to lunch... he quickly picked up. "yellow?" I chuckled.

"Ben I need some assistance with a couple things... some advice." I told him.

"then tell the great Ben what you need." he responded as I rolled my eyes.

"i have to leave the farm but with everything that's been happening I cant trust the construction company to somehow get my anthro's into a large amount of trouble. With the fact my brother was the cause for the first incident I cant leave them unattended... and I have to go to the center to see if I could find help for a couple of the anthro's under my care..."

"question... does any of them have a gun? And by them I mean your anthro's..."

"Big Macintosh has a gun with him since the first incident."

"then I could notify the chief that due to this reason he could send a patrol car to watch from a distance away with binoculars and could keep an eye on the farm. New rule that was put in place due to large amounts of incidents concerning the anthro's and money obsessed companies who get lots of money from these incidents taking place... ill call the chief now and let him know to send a car your way... and ill make sure its a good one..."

"thanks Ben... have a good one."

"you as well, I'll call once the lookouts in place." he hung up on his end as I quickly closed the phone and frowned slightly. Even if there was a lookout they would be limited in where they could be watching. Concerning the large area around where I live was plains and with the new additions to the farm it would be near impossible to watch everywhere with all the places something could happen. Looking out the window and towards the barn they could possibly be almost done with everything in the barn so I could possibly have them all stay in one place in sight of the lookout. While it would set back the chores a bit until I returned and there was a chance the lookout could simply lie about what was happening was heavy on my mind. Putting my laptop away I left out the back door and went towards the newly planted apple trees in search of Big Macintosh.

Quickly finding him talking with his sister I approached them which made them stop and look towards me in confusion. "i got to leave the farm for a few hours at least. Don't know when ill be back." they nodded. "but since I don't trust the company to not try anything... there's going to be a police lookout watching over the farm from a distance. Ill find out where he will be and I want all of you to stay within his line of sight." Applejack looked confused while Big Mac nodded with a stoic expression on his face. I turned towards Applejack before I began speaking to her. "could you let everyone else know whats going on so they wont be confused as to whats happening?" she nodded before she walked off away from the two of us. "Big Mac..." he looked towards me as I continued to watch Applejack walk away. "I'm giving you a lot of trust at the moment... should anything happen..." I looked him straight in the eye. "do not use the gun... only use it should your lives be on the line... OK?" he nodded.

"Eeyup... may I ask where your going?" I nodded before quickly responding.

"i need to get help for the two in the bedroom. If I remembered earlier I would of done it sooner but with everything happening it was furthest from my mind. I hope you all forgive me for forgetting to get them help until now." he nodded. "the reason why I said a few hours is so I could find out some other things about everything that's going on with my family and their company." he nodded.

Walking away with a small wave I simply walked around the entire property until eventually my phone began to vibrate so I pulled myself away from everybody and went out of hearing distance. "this is Lance."

"Lance the guys in place and he says hes got a good view of the entire front of your property with the few exceptions of the large trailers. Hes got eyes there and I've already notified him of all the anthro's on your property and will respond in turn should anything happen. Hes got orders from the chief though that at the first sign of a big incident about to happen to call in some reinforcements and quickly rush over to diffuse the situation. Hes a honest man Lance so don't be worried." I gave a sigh of relief knowing that belief was now out the window.

"ill be leaving now... all of the anthro's will be staying near the front porch with orders of no one being allowed in the house... does he know which one has the gun?" I asked him looking over the front of the property using my eyes to skim the horizon.

"he knows its the one who's big and red. He also knows of the four Pegasus in the master bedroom and the two who are knocked out at the moment..." he was silent for a bit before he responded. "so all your bases should be covered should anything happen. I'm on the call list should anything happen so ill be over there if something does happen and ill let you know if something comes up." I gave a breath of relief.

"thanks for your help Ben. Hope to god that nothing does happen." he chuckled.

"with you lance you might as well beg." he hung up as I chuckled at his poke towards me before pocketing my phone and quickly letting Big Macintosh know where to have them all and to keep an eye on the house... once he walked away I went in search of the project director and found her talking calmly to a small group of her companies handlers. Waiting for her to be finished I approached as the others walked away with a nervous expression on their faces as they passed me. "Miss Walker?" she jumped and quickly spun around with a look of surprise. "apologies for scaring you."

"i-its alright." she quickly got herself under control before looking me straight in the eyes. "what may I help you with?"

"I'm letting you know ill be off the property for a few hours at least so you wont be able to find me. My anthro's are all going to take a break from their work as they haven't had a good break in a while so please don't bother them. They wont have anyway to contact me should you need to... I'm giving your company a lot of trust here Miss Walker..." she gulped at my slightly angered tone as I growled lowly. "should anything happen it will all be on you." I didn't even give her a chance to respond as I walked away and towards the truck.

Pulling my keys out and starting up the truck I gave a small wave to the girls and Big Mac as I maneuvered myself to get to the dirt road leading to the actual road as I gave a small sigh just knowing something was going to happen.
