"Sure thing," Sil made it a point to bring his cup with him this time as he walked away with Arpe, "Alright, what did Blackie do this time?"

Arpeggio lifted the vial. "I'm pretty sure this is his, because I can't think of any other ponies that would have these kinds of things on them normally. Do you feel okay?" He put a hoof to Silver's forehead.
Silver pushed Arpe's hoof away in a bit of annoyance, "I'm FINE. And you're at a college party. ANYPONY could be carrying around ANYTHING. More than likely roofies. Blackie and Ferr were watching my drink. I really doubt I would have been roofied. ESPECIALLY since nothing has happened to me since I took a drink of this." Silver emphasized his point before downing the rest of the coke and throwing the empty cup into the crowd, "You know, if you REALLY don't feel like being nice, why don't you just go?"
At this point, Arpi glared at the grey pegasus. "Alright, fine! Sorry for caring, Silver. Y'know, I thought you'd trust your friend who has shown on multiple occasions that he cares about you over the one who nearly slit your throat with a piece of broken glass, but I guess not. At least now I know how Stella duped you so easily back then." The brown pegasus shook his head in slight disgust and walked off, leaving the party.
Silver huffed slightly as he turned around and walked back to Blackie and Ferr, getting worked up and a bit woozy already from the bit of extra stress, Hmf. That stallion. Just... hmf. I just need to get back to Blackie. I swear, getting this stressed does things to me...
Calmly sitting on his seat, Blackwing strained to hear the conversation that was taking place between the two ponies. Having only been able to hear bits and pieces, he sighed a bit in relief as Arpeggio stormed off, and Silver walked back to them. He had to do everything in his power not to break into a satisfied smile then and there. Thank Celestia. I had no idea how Getting Arpeggio away would work, I really should work on my evil planning skills.... he thought to himself as Silver rematched them. "Hey bud..... I'm sorry man..." He said, setting a hoof tenderly on his shoulder. "I guess tonight were finding out who our friend friends are..." He said, looking slyly over at Ferrarity as he said this.
"It's fine..." Silver said, sitting back with them and smiling, "he just needs some time to get used to the idea of trusting you... he seriously saw a vial on the ground and thought it was yours after you spiked my drink or something." Silver chuckled, "Heh, but I trust ya still... you just... need some time to adjust is all. Everyone does."
Ferrarity giggled at Blackwing, smiling back still the same as he was at her. "You sure do know how to impress a mare, and I thought I was fast." She looked around to Silver with a caring smile. "Don't worry Silver, Arp will come around in time, I guess he just doesn't like social gatherings as such. Though he should lighten up a bit, it's the weekend! A time for fun and merriment with a party like this!" She spun around in her chair with her forelegs up to emphasize the whole party scene, almost falling off as she flailed around a bit but caught herself then giggled at herself for acting a little silly.
He stuck out his hoof to steady the red mare before she fell, seeing that she was alright, he brought it back to his side with a laugh. "Dont fall over now, the last thing we need to have happen is you split your head open." He said with joking laughter before turning to Silver. "Dont worry, he will get over himself! I cant really blame him though.... After what I did and all, hes just trying to look out for you is all." Blackwing said, trying to sound like he cared.
"Ya, you guys are right... heh," Silver smiled a bit more, "I swear, when I get worked up I start getting all woozy. I mean, I even START thinking about something like Arpe being so... suspicious and I start getting lightheaded!" The feeling started to return as he started ranting, the drug starting to flow some more, almost reaching that critical level where it would knock Silver out cold. "I could only imagine what would happen if I had some alchohol in me!"
"Thanks Blackie, got a little dizzy there. But let's just enjoy ourselves and have fun the way we want to tonight!" She looked to Silver and giggled. "Well don't go drinking anything unless you want a repeat of your drunken adventure! Just relax and have fun, it's what we came here to do after all!" She raised up an empty shot glass then giggled at her mistake and picked up the last full one she had and drank it. "Mmm, good stuff! I like having a high tolerance!"
"Well that makes one of us! My tolerance lever is probably not as high as it aught to be." Blackwing said laughing with Ferrarity.
I just need a little bit more, something to push him over his edge... he though to himself, running his hoof around one of his empty shot glasses when it hit him. He i stopped the empty Vodka bottle that he had set to the side, and poured two shots, trying to hand one to Silver. "Come now, just one shit Silver, for old times sake! Come on! Drinkitdrinkitdrinkit!" He said, egging on his friend to take the shot.
Silver waved a hoof in front of him, dismissing the shot, "Blackie, please. I already said I wasn't going to be drinking tonight." he said in a slightly irritated tone, "Not after last night... my head just hurts thinking about it."
"Don't push it on him if he doesn't want it Blackie. I'm sure he has enough on his mind right now." She put a hoof on Blackwing's shoulder to try an reassure him and hope he wouldn't press Silver anymore with the drink. "I'll drink it with ya though if you want!"
"Come on! Its just ONE teeny tiny shot! I know for a fact that YOUR tolerance is FAR greater then it taking one measly shot to get you spun." Blackwing said, ignoring Ferrarity, pressing on, but not trying to force the matter. "Just drink this ONE shot, and I wont bug you the rest of the night about it." He said, putting the shot in front of him. "I mean.... Whats the worst that can happen?"
Just the slight annoyance of Blackie wanting Sil to take the shot was enough to make that wooziness in Silver's head worse, and impair his judgement just a little bit. "Fine. Gimme that." He said as he snatched the glass out of Blackie's hoof and slugged it down, having almost an immediete effect on his heas, seemingly shutting it down, his eyes glazing over. "B-bad ideear," Sil was able to slur out, starting to sway back and forth in his seat, "I-I don't feel sooo good."
"Blackie! I told you not to press him, now look what you did to Silver." She glared at Blackwing while presenting a hoof to the seemingly drunken grey pegasus. "I think we need to get you back to your room for some rest Sil, come on I'll help ya." She got down from her seat and went over to Silver and tried to help him down steadily.
"SHIT!" He said in mock surprise at the situation, putting down the shot that he still never drank. He frantically got up and stood over the grey pegasus. "Hes not looking too well.... CRAP! I didnt intend for THIS to happen!" He said, running his hoof through his mane. "Ill take him Ferrarity, I cant let this ruin your night. Besides, you still have shots you need to take." He said with a chuckle and a smile. "Dont worry about this, alright? Ill take him up to his room, you can just enjoy the party. Ill catch up with you tomorrow or something, alright?" He said, tossing his friend onto his back. He gave her a peck on the cheek.
Ferrerity perked up at the peck but shook her head in response. "Shots or not, I'm going with you! I can't leave Silver like this, it doesn't put my mind at ease when something like this happens to a friend. There will be other parties, I don't care if this is the big one or whatever. A party is a party, but friends are more important then drinking and dancing."
Im so close, I know for a fact that she cant come, I wouldent know what to do if she did, I would never get him alone then. I just need to get her to stay behind.... But apparently, NO amount of talking is going to work... He thought to himself, trying hard to think of an excuse. Silver wasent light, military program or not, he was not the lightest load. His eyes darted around, his mind desperately trying to think of an excuse. His eyes landed on her again, and for the second time, a lightbulb went off while a tiny part of him felt terrible. He pulled her into a long, deep kiss. He put his front hoof around her neck, pulling her close to him, attempting to throw as much passion as possible in.
"Let's get go-!" She was caught off guard as Blackwing kissed her all of a sudden, her eyes going wide as possible from it for a moment, she felt it was more passionate this time though and it made her relaxed. She couldn't go against the kiss as it somewhat overwhelmed her and she just closed her eyes and kissed back as it just felt natural for her to do so at the moment.
Blackwing held the kiss for a bit longer, making sure that he would get his point across. By now HIS mind was even in overdrive, not sure if it was anticipation or hormones in the slightest. When he was done, he brought his mouth up to her hear. "Ive got this alright? Feel free to meet me up in my room later tonight, in about two hours, if you want some more though~." He whispered, nibbling slightly on her ear when he was done. He turned around, and walked for the door and into the cool night air, not looking back, hoping his plan had worked.
Maybe going insane wasent so bad.... I mean.... Its helped me with the mares, though I have NO clue what I was thinking with the end.... But then again, I AM kidnapping my friend and dragging him off into the woods with no real motive other then the sake of proving a point and sheer FUN, but I digress. He thought to himself, giggling FAR more then he should have been at the thought.
And so he walked into the forest after walking for about an hour or so as a slow, steady pace due to Silvers body weight, he found a quaint little cave. It wasent very hidden, but who would really think to be looking about this deep in the forest for CAVES. He walked a little bit of a ways in, and realized two things.
1. He didnt have a light source
2. He didnt have anything to tie him up with!
Kicking himself mentally, he set his friend down on the semi-damp ground and zoomed off to his dorm. He quietly snuck in through the STILL open window, he grabbed a roll of duct tape that he kept in his bedside table, and pulled out a small oil lamp from his closet thing. Grasping the lamp between his teeth and the duct tape in his pocket, he raced back to the cave where he had stowed Silver. He landed in the entrance and walked in front of him, dropping the oil lamp and duct tape.
He lit the lamp and hummed to himself as he worked on binding Silver. He propped Silver up against a wall and started binding him TO the wall in an upright position. His body looking like he was attempting to make a snow angel, but in a rock wall. Having used nearly the entire roll of tape in the process making SURE he wasn't going to squirm his way out, he tossed it to the side.
Ferrarity was a bit speechless after Blackwing pulled out of the kiss, and even more so after he whispered those words into her ear. She gaspsed faintly out of surprised by his words and blushed deep red. She was again lucky her red coat hid most of the blush as she just blinked as he walked of then she just turn back to the bar and sat there for a bit after that, not sure what to think as her heart was racing faster then she could run. He...said...oh boy...IdunnoifIshouldbuthesoundedsoconfidentandIdu nnoifIshouldbuthe'ssosweetandI... She kept thinking to herself at a fast pace almost feeling like passing out til the bartender snapped her out of it a bit. She perked up her head and got back to reality then ordered a bottle of her drink and just drank the whole thing down to try and relax a bit before she fainted. She was able to calm down a bit and still remain sober, but she couldn't get what he said out of her head as she kept thinking about what she should do. For the moment she got up and went out to dance a bit and think over what Blackwing said.
Arpeggio was fuming for a lot of the time, shaking his head; he'd been resting on a cloud when he'd left the party, muttering angrily to himself. His sensitive ears flicked a bit as he heard a zooming sound going both towards and away from the dorm. "...What the...?" That was certainly interesting. He didn't expect anyone else to be away from the party yet... Where was that sound going, though?
"Hm..." The large pegasus glided down towards the ground, walking in the direction he'd thought he'd heard the sound going.
Silver started to stir awake, well, tried to stir, then realized he couldn't move. He woke up, still feeling a bit fuzzy headed and noticed that he was completely duct taped to a wall. "Ugh... I knew just having one drink was going to be trouble..." Silver closed his eyes, trying to shake away the fuzziness, not even bothering to look at where exactly he was, "Haha you guys, real funny. NOW LET ME DOWN!" After a moment of no response, Silver opened his eyes, then realized that he had no idea where the hell he was.
Blackwings ears perked up at Silvers screaming. He had wandered deep into the cave, looking for either its ending or something of interest. He let out a loud sigh before turning around, shaking his head as he made his way back to the wall he had taped Silver up to. He stayed further back into the shadows of the cave, the lamp casting strange shadows. he snickered silently to himself, contemplating how he was going to go about scaring his friend. "Now now, Silver, no need to yelllll" He said, attempting to slightly higher the pitch of his voice. "Unless, of course, you WANT a reason to scream, because I KNOW I can give it to you, tell me, think you can fly without wings?"
Meanwhile, Arpi continued to wander in the forest, ears perked. His eyes were pretty much useless due to how dark it was, so he had to rely on his hearing. "I could've sworn I heard something around here..." He was beginning to wonder. This could be dangerous... then again, everything he went through in that year of high school was pretty dangerous... the brown pegasus continued to trek on in the darkness, ears perked.
After a while of dancing and drinking, though she drank mostly soda or water the rest of the night, Ferrarity was still contemplating Blackwing's invite, his words still going through her head as she sat down and took a break. It's been about an hour and a half, so I should decide in the next thirty minutes if I should do this or not. She looks at the clock and stares at it for a while while she thinks it over many times. Some of the songs she heard in the mix seemed to speak to her, and everything else before hoof was pushing it to come to this. The red mare was unsure of what to do but since the party was winding down a bit and a few drunks were falling all over the place, she decided to leave and head back to the dorm rooms. She walked slowly on her way there, talking a few routes out of the way as she sighed. I'm going to go through with it I suppose, this Saturday night couldn't get any crazier....just fun...I hope. She blushed a bit at the thought then started for the room of a certain black pegasus. No regrets.
"Ok, seriously Blackie, it's funny, I got drunk and woke up taped to a wall... somewhere..." Silver looked around for crazed pegasus, seeing some flame dancing down the walls of the cave, "You got me, you can let me down now. And flying without wings? I would only need enough speed."
A wide smile spread across Blackwing face, the light dancing off his white teeth, leaving only the outline of a sinister smile in the darkness. he chuckled, "Oh Silver, so quick-witted and ego-driven. Fine then, you scream, I cut out your vocal cords and eat them like spaghetti, that would make sounding off a bit difficult, wouldent you say?" Blackwing stepped into the light, he looked normal, all except for the clearly insane smile and laugh that accompanied him, but something about him was a bit... off. His eyes looked.... A little too big. And a little too green. He held a knife and roll of duct tape under his wing. "YOU arent going to go anywhere, I have something I need to take care of before the night is out, I hope you wont miss me too much," He says, getting close to Silvers ear. "i'm SURE Arpe misses you..." He whispers, preparing the roll of duct tape, hoping that he would make it in time for Ferr.
Ferrarity was going down the dorm halls as she approached the black stallion's room. she reached out to give a knock, but felt a bit timid to tap on the door and see if he was in. She set her hoof down then ran off to her room, making sure she looked ok in the mirror and made sure she was smelling of alcohol or any other bad odors then sighs as she smiled at her self in the mirror. "Everything will be fine! There's nothing to worry about, it's the weekend and everypony's just out to have fun!" After giving herself a little pep talk she walked back out of her room and casually strolled back down to Blackwing's door and took a breath of confidence and knocked on it. Let's see what's behind door #1.
He laughed again, taking note of Silvers struggle to break his bonds. Just to be sure he wouldn't be going anywhere, he started to re-tape the struggling pony. When he was done, he brought his mouth right up next to his perky ear. "I bet you know ALL about his size, dont you, colt cuddler?" He whispered harshly, licking up the length of his ear when he finished. He started to duct tape his mouth shut, being sure to place several strands at different intervals and positions. "Now Silver, I need to go do.... Something, so dont you go and try to escape. Because if I get back, and youre a hair out of place, im going to maim you, K? He strutted over and picked up the oil lamp, holding it is his teeth, about to put it out. He slowly put it down. "Just in case you DO try to wiggle yourself out of here....." He grabbed the knife out from under his wing, and drove it firmly into his friends left forehoof. "Shhhhhh dont scream. It wont do you any good." He said as he played with the knife, wiggling it deeper untill it hit rock, or bone, either one was fine. He yakned the knife out roughly, laughing as he put it back to where he had grabbed it from. "Bye bye, Silvey." He said, blowing out the lantern as he took swiftly to the sky, racing back to his dorm, trying not to be late.
Ferrarity waited outside for a bit, tilting her head as the door remained unopened, she folded her ears back wondering what was happening. Did he forget? Maybe he just said that thinking I wouldn't show up. She shakes her head. No, it hasn't been that long, he's probably just running late! He wouldn't have done what he did other wise if he didn't mean it. I guess I'll just have to wait a while....unless this is part of his strategy to make me wait on purpose and get anticipated. Aaaagh, going to shut up now before I get worked up over nothing! She sits against the wall by the door and hums lightly to herself as she waits.
Blackwing took off and tore through the sky like his tail was on fire, taking the cold night air as he shot forward to his dorm. He landed in front of the dormhall, and was about to walk in. Wait, shit, I should take the window, just in case. Crap. He thought to himself, his thoughts moving sparraticly in his head, he found himself unable to focus. He climbed through his window and landed softly, trying not to make much noise. He went over to the mirror, straightened his tie, fixed his mane, and put on the best seductive smile he could muster.
Ok, just open the door, see if shes there, hopefully she hasent been waiting... He thought, opening the door and looking for the familiar red pony. "Hey there." He said, a slight smile across his face, leaning on the doorframe.
Fearrarity looked over to see the black stallion leaning in the doorway and gave a small smile. "Hey Blackie! How are ya?" She felt a bit silly asking that. "That was, quite a party earlier, huh? Sorry you missed most of it. But I'm glad you care for your friends like that, how's Silver?"
"Silvers doing wonderfully, I made sure he got into bed and that he was alright, hes probably going to regreat going to that party in the morning, I have a feeling that hes gunna be trapped between a rock and a hard place, haha." He said, trying to be friendly.
"I dont really mind missing the party, im not really a party-pony anyway, was never one for loud music and noise.... But who said the fun had to end at the party, hummm?"
Ferrarity giggled and shrugged a little. "I'm glad Silver's doing well. And no pony said it has to! The night's still young, right?" She smiled and gave a wink at Blackwing. "And I like parties! That one was pretty awesome, despite the loud music. It didn't bother me that much, and I had a blast!
He laughed, pushing silvers anguish into the back of his mind. "Yes, I do believe that the night is still quite immature in age, would you like to come in?" Blackwing asked, trying to be proper in a rather silly manner, pushing the door open a bit wider to allow her to enter. "I didnt really party in highschool either, never really suit me. Crowds arent really my thing, ya-know?"
Ferrarity giggled and nodded to his question. "Sure! That why you asked me here after all! And I like parties! It's always nice to meet new friends!" She walked past him inside, brushing him as she went by him and looked around the room. "Nice room, a lot better after that incident with the explosion!"
