A Flier's Angel Chapter: 6
"Stupid Pterano..." Spike grumbled, sulking in the rocking chair. "I was the only one who liked Rarity before he showed up..."
"Will you just put a stop to your complaining already?" remarked Twilight. "Just sitting around feeling sorry for yourself isn't going to help solve your problems, and besides, we have a much bigger problem in our hooves..."
"What are talking about?" the baby dragon asked. "We aren't dealing with anything that serious..."
"But we are, Spike!" she argued. "I suspect that Pterano and those so-called "friends" of his are up to no good!"
"But how could you just assume something like that, Twilight?" he questioned. "You don't actually know if they are evil..."
Quickly turning around and letting out a heaving sigh, the unicorn admitted, "I just don't know why, but when I first saw those goons in town, I received a very bad vibe off of them... Something about them is just so, odd..." Turning back towards Spike, the determined Twilight Sparkle then spoke, "Which is why I must find some sort of spell to reveal their true intentions! I'll do whatever it takes!"
Pterano smiled as he was walking by Twilight's home. He had just finished helping Applejack, and was happy to have done so. She clearly was a good pony herself, but… None as fine as Rarity was! The flier couldn't help but smile at the thought, that young sophisticated unicorn. "Hmm, I think we both would make a good match… Yes. A very good match indeed!" He failed to notice Twilight Sparkle nearby, watching him.
"All right, it's settled..." the unicorn whispered to the dragon. "I'm going out to follow him..."
Before Twilight was able to leave just yet, a concerned Spike questioned her, "Are you sure you'll be alright all by yourself?"
"Relax, Spike!" she assured him. "I know what I'm doing..."
Pterano stretched out his wings, as he felt a tiny ball hit his clawed foot. Looking up, he blinked as he could see Apple Bloom playing with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle; apparently, they were playing a game of soccer together. Smiling, Pterano gently kicked the ball up onto his knee, and then gently kicked it back towards the trio of fillies.
"Thanks for our ball, mister!" Sweetie Belle happily replied to the flyer, clutching the ball within her hooves.
Pterano waved to the girls in response as he continued on walking, completely unaware that he was being followed.
"Well, he hasn't done anything wrong so far... At least not yet, anyway." Twilight Sparkle quietly noted to herself. "But, I'd better keep going..." She then continued on trailing the oblivious Pterano, anxiously awaiting his next move!
Pterano watched as some flying soda fizz went shooting right out of Sugercube Corner, as Pinkie Pie came running out in a panic trying to catch it! Seeing as how she wasn't' going to make it, Pterano then leaped into the air and caught it as he then slowly put the cap back onto it. "Here you are, my dear." he beamed.
"Thank you, Pterano!" Pinkie Pie giggled. "You're so nice!"
Having observed the scene in hiding, baffled Twilight then remarked, "He still hasn't done anything bad? I just don't get it!"
"Muwahahahahha! All these ponies shall become my victims!" Pterano sneered evilly, as a dark shadow then casted itself over his head. However, it instantly vanished once he happily said, "My victims in me for being so helpful to them, that is."
"GAAAAHHHH!" she exclaimed out of frustration! "I thought for certain that I had him that time! Ugh... Where'd he vanish off to, anyway?"
Pterano glanced back as he soon vanished off behind a small building. Waiting silently, he then popped out in front of the surprised Twilight Sparkle. "Hello, Twilight." he greeted softy, a tone of hurt in his voice.
"Oh! Hey there, Pterano!" the unicorn smiled, trying her best to hide her suspicions of the flier. "What brings you here?"
Pterano looked at her warily, but was quick to inform her, "I couldn't help but notice that you were following me. Now, why do you suppose that is? Is this true?"
"What are you talking about?!" Twilight laughed hysterically. "I wasn't following you!"
Pterano stared at her suspiciously, as he then looked her up and down. "Dilated eyes, quickened breathing, and laughing hysterically... You're lying to me." Looking at her with saddened eyes, he asked, "Why were you following me? Have I not been at all good? Don't you trust me, friend?"
Hanging her head in shame, she finally confessed, "I'm very sorry about all of this, Pterano... I'll admit that, I was in fact following you... But the fact of the matter is, I just felt that I couldn't trust you... Just like you said." The guilty unicorn then slowly turned to leave...
Pternao then surprised her as he came up from behind her with a hug. "That's alright, my dear! I forgive you." he smiled.
Completely baffled at this, Twilight Sparkle then asked, "You do?"
Pterano nodded, as he admitted, "I believe I do understand on why you don't exactly trust me. Big friendly new person comes to town, saying he wishes to help all those in need does seem rather suspicious. I'm very sorry if I came off as a bit too friendly to draw attention, merely I was just expressing myself on how I usually am. Although, you're not the first one to become suspicious of me: many beings just can't believe someone can be so nice all the time." The flier lowered his head sadly at that.
Placing a hoof on the saddened flier's shoulder, she then insisted, "Is there anything I could ever do for you to make up for what I did?"
Pterano quickly thought to himself, "Well, perhaps being king of this land would be nice! I could have you serve alongside me as one of my advisors…" He grinned at the idea, but then concluded, "No, not yet. It's far too soon to. For now, I just need to focus on keeping things nice and simple. Yes!" Smiling to the pony, he assured her, "There's no need for you to do anything for me at all, so no need to worry."
"Oh. Alright, then!" smiled Twilight. Beginning to set off, she then informed him, "Well, I guess I'd better be on my way now! Keep up the good work you've been doing in town for everypony, Pterano sir!" The unicorn then bolted right back to the treehouse to meet up with Spike!
Pterano waved casually as he watched her leave. "Hmmm, I need to act now. She's on to me, and if she finds out any of my plans, well, then everything will be ruined!" Smiling, he told himself, "I need to get Rarity to fall in love with me. That way, she'll side with me whenever I try to do what's right."
