- Another one shot I'm working on. Will hopefully power on through and finish it soon.
- Sitting in the middle of a wide open plain Luna and Anonymous sip tea and stare up into the night sky.
- Luna takes a sip of her tea before giving you an admonishing look.
- “You know you really shouldn’t be sleeping on the job Anonymous.”
- You sigh heavily.
- “Luna…. Why is it every time I take a break from my backbreaking labour you show up and kick my dream to the curb, replacing it with tea time?”
- “Backbreaking? I find you here so much I doubt you do any work at all.”
- “Well it’s a slow season.”
- Luna chuckles and shakes her head.
- “It’s the holiday season Anonymous. The busiest time of the year for the mail industry. Your manager is going to scream your mane off if he catches you shirking your duty.”
- “What about you? I bet you’re in Canterlot right now sleeping on your throne. Probably drooling too.”
- “I beg your pardon! A princess does not drool!”
- “Celestia’s probably poking you with the royal stick. Trying to stop you from snoring too loud.”
- You laugh at the mental image before turning away and looking up at the stars.
- Suddenly Luna is right in front of you pulling back her hoof to strike you.
- You throw up your hands to shield yourself.
- “Wo Luna I was just kidding!”
- She gives you a sinister smile.
- Everything goes black.
- You hear Luna whisper directly in your ear.
- “Wake up.”
- You’re thrust back into reality as something big slams into your stomach.
- “Oof”
- Your eyes shoot open to see Derpy sitting on you, her hooves latched onto your face as she yells.
- “We got a job Mr Nony!”
- You spring up from the comfy boxes you had stacked into a makeshift bed, throwing Derpy off of you. She spreads her wings and flaps them, lazily hovering above of you.
- “We got a package to delver! Number one super important delivery!”
- “Jeeze Derpy try to be a little more gentle. Almost lost my lunch there.”
- She smiles happily at you.
- “Sorry Nony but we got work to do! Special delivery! Chief wants us to handle this together. The best of the force!”
- Best? The clumsiest and the laziest workers partnered up…..
- “Alright Derpy. Where are we going?”
- Derpy flys over to the map on the wall and slams her hoof on it.
- “Right there.”
- Yawning you rub the sleep from your eyes and walk over.
- “Where?”
- She taps the map again.
- “There!”
- “Derpy you’re pointing at a mountain.”
- She smiles again.
- “Yep!”
- You stare at her dumbly as she continues to tap the map and smile.
- Turning away you storm out of the warehouse.
- “Chief!” you yell out. “Where the hell are you?”
- You notice him talking with a bunch of pegasi. They hear you yelling and stop to stare at you.
- The chief face hooves and trots over to you.
- “Anonymous this had better be important.”
- “What's the big deal sending me to a damn mountain?”
- “Calm down Anonymous, its not that big a deal.”
- “Not a big deal? I can’t fly!”
- “Anonymous. Its not that far and from what I hear its not much of a climb. Get it done and you and Derpy can have the rest of the day off.”
- “Rest of the day? I won’t get to the mountain before the day is over let alone climb it! Why can’t you just send a pegasis?”
- “The parcel is too heavy for pegasis.”
- “Then use the flying truck cart thingy.”
- “It lost a wheel.
- “What? It lost a……what?!
- “Sorry Anon its up to you and Derpy. Everyone else is busy.”
- “Wait….why send me along with Derpy?”
- The chief glares at you.
- “To keep you from dumping the parcel in a lake and running off again.”
- “That was one time and it was full of bees…..angry BEES!”
- “Those bees were dormant!”
- “Tell that to my ass! They stung it like fifty times!”
- “ANOYMOUS!” The chief yells..
- “You are taking the package to the mountain and that is final!”
- He flutters his wings. Bringing himself right up into your face.
- “Get your winter gear and get out there!”
- Stepping back you raise your hands up in defeat.
- “Alright alright” you mutter.
- Turning away you slip into the clothing station. Derpy’s already there trying to put her gear on.
- She looks up at you and beams. Bringing her front hoof up to hoof bump you.
- You begrudgingly return the bump.
- “Heck ya super delivery team on the case!”
- You get your gear on and help Derpy into hers.
- Comfortably snug in your thick coat, toque, gloves and scarf you head outside.
- Its starting to snow heavily again. Weather team must be outdoing themselves for the holidays.
- “Ok Derpy. Where’s the package?”
- “I’ll get it!”
- She takes off into the air like a rocket.
- You hear a crash. A couple of frightened shouts followed by ponys yelling angrily.
- Sighing you run off in the direction Derpy went.
- You find Derpy being chewed out by one of the higher ups, some unicorn desk jockey.
- Derpy is sitting with her face down apologising.
- Time to defuse the situation. Grabbing some snow you quickly make a snowball and bif it at the unicorn.
- It hits him square on the snout making him jump back in surprise.
- You walk up and with the smuggiest grin you can muster you say in a terrible austrian accent “Chill out.”
- Open mouthed with shock Derpy and the unicorn stare at you completely dumbstruck.
- The unicorn is the first to laugh.
- Ponies love terrible jokes.
- He turns to Derpy.
- “Just try to watch where your going next time.”
- “I will. Sorry again…”
- “Its ok Derpy. Mistakes happen.”
- The unicorn walks off chuckling to himself.
- Derpy punches you in the leg.
- “Ouch what the hell?”
- “Chill out?! Are you serious?!”
- “Hey it worked didn’t it? Now where’s the package?”
- >Derpy crosses her front hooves and pouts.
- “Oh come on. It wasn’t that bad a joke….Lets just go get the package and get out here.”
- >Derpys face lights up.
- >“I’ma go get some provisions! Its gonna be a long trip!”
- “Wait Derpy!”
- >But its too late. Derpys once again zooms off. Probably to that sugary place.
- >“Anoymous!” some stallion calls.
- >Turning around you see the Unicorn you biffed a snowball at.
- >“Your parcel is over here.” He points behind him to a large box wrapped in paper.
- >You head on over and inspect the box.
- “How heavy is this thing?”
