"Fallout Equestria: Chapter 7 — Velvet Remedy"
Her!
She was still as beautiful as the first time I saw her. It had been the birthday party for the Overmare’s daughter. Velvet Remedy
had come in to sing her a stunning revision of the Happy Birthday song. I had been painfully jealous of the filly for weeks after.
Actually, she was even more gorgeous than the last time I saw her. I’d followed her out into this wasteland.
To see her now, against this backdrop of rusted metal, old hardwood, bloodstains and liquor — her
song so clear and majestic through the din of lowlifes — made her breathtaking in comparison.
My heart fluttered like a butterfly trapped in a jar. Part of me wanted to run to her.
Part of me, small but insistent, wanted to be furious with her, to blame her for getting me
involved; it didn’t matter that the only pony who forced me out of that Stable door was me.
My eyes flickered back to the guards making their rounds. Even if they weren’t looking in my direction, in moments they wouldn’t
be able to miss me. Following either cry of my heart was out. Instead, I scooted back silently, and retreated the way I came.
This threw a new wrinkle in the plan. Now, getting Velvet Remedy out of captivity was my highest priority. Not
to suggest the other ponies in those cages were any less important to me. But something personal had been
added to the situation. In my head, I entertained the thought of her how happy she would be to see me.
