private Platinum Woods Hotel (RP Thread)

Honey quickly followed the mare up the stairs. She looked very regal in her armor and it made slight clinking noise as she walked. Reaching the first floor, she heard a sceam. She noticed a grey stallion her age running from his room. Her must have been the cause of the scream. I wonder what he's so afraid of. I hope this place isn't haunted... She was afraid of ghosts. This wouldn't be the relaxing vacation it was supposed to be if something showed up. She shook her head, of course there was no such thing a ghosts. They simply weren't real, unless you where in the Everfree Forest. The Everfree Forest was scary... She was so glad she was posted in Old Canterlot, as opposed to somewhere outside the gates. She loved Old Canterlot, with it's homey streets and wall of mountian. Honey was lucky to be posted near her home, some ponies where sent out to the Griffin Kingdom, of away to where the zebras roam.

 

Somepony adressed her. She blinked a few times and snapped out of it. It was Iron Wing, she was saying somthing about her room. ''Okay,'' she responded. ''I can't wait to see where I'll be staying. I just love old castles.''

Hellcat slwoly trotted over and handed bell some tissues to wipe her eyes, "are you going to be okay? if youd like to stay in this room for the time being, your welcome too it." she smiled in a friendly manner "i kinda miss having company, im on the night watch at fort trotsnobyl out on the edge of the frozen tundra near stalliongrad, and its a lonely post." she chuckled, then sighed, "sorry, i tend to talk about myself alot, its a bit of a habit really."

[Driz 1,552]

"Um... Sir? I doubt that we can keep the guests in their room, but i think we can be sure that in the evening nopony will leave the castle."

 

Benjamin looked down at the floor, thoughtful. Iron Wing was right; it would be difficult to keep things safe and organized. The last resort would be to inform each and every guest about the frequent hauntings in the castle, but that would probably just empty the place in a second, putting an end to both Benjamin's and Iron Wing's job.

 

"That old fool should have thought about that before transforming this place into a bucking hotel..." Benjamin mumbled, referring to the landowner. Then he turned back to Iron. "Do what you can to avoid any kind of discomfort regarding the guests. I will take over the night watch."

 

She went upstairs without losing any speed.

 

Benjamin observed as Iron Wing ascended the staircase, followed by the yellow pegasus mare. He gave both a last emotionless stare and moved behind the reception counter, quietly studying some papers.

When Hellcat gave her the tissue she pushed it away and stood up. "Yeah, i'll be fine." She said a little to mean. She hoped Hellcat didnt take offence to it. "And thanks for letting me stay in your room. So your miliatry? Ive never been in it but i considered it." She said as she went to the second be and pulled the covers out a little. "But yeah, that didnt go as i thought it would." She sighed, getting into the bed facing away from hellcat. "Im just going to go to sleep." She closed her eyes and started dreaming.

hellcat nodded, "alright, ill probibly be up for awhile longer." she said quietly as she turned and nestled into her own bed, but couldnt sleep, and ended up laying there for hours, wondering what too do with herself, mabey she WAS a vampire and that was why she couldnt sleep.

shaking her head she laughed softly, no that cant be it

Jester stopped, breathing heavily.

After catching his breath Jester went to the reception table when he arrived there he saw a gray pony with a red and black mane.

He hysterically told the stalion behind the desk "there is a yellow monster with black stripes in my room."

They arrived at Honey Swirls room. "Well, we are here. Hope you enjoy your stay. If the room does not satisfy you, we can find another one. Also if you need anything you can ask me anytime." she said to the guardian comrade. She did put down the luggage and smiled a bit. Iron opened the room and entered it, looking around. Somehow the window was open. "Oh? Excuse me, somepony of the staff members has opened the window. I shall close it..." Iron said and went further into the room with the luggage of Honey Swirl. She dropped the luggage near the bed and went for the window. She hadn´t noticed that another pony was already sleeping within the room out of sight to her position.

Honey Swirl Stood outsise the room and poked her head in. She looked around, noticing some stuff in a corner. They must have been using this room for storage. I bet they didn't have time to clear it out before the guests showed up. She thought as she took a step farther in room. The armored mare was right, the window was open. It seemed that a cloud had drifted in, as there was one floating in the corner of the room. She shivered, as there was a slight breeze coming in from outside.

 

That's funny, the cloud isn't drifting around. Even though the wind was blowing, the cloud stayed stationary. I bet somepony put it there to clear the skies after the rain. Or maybe the staff had know there was going to be a pegasus staying here and wanted her to feel at home. Okay, She thought fluttering into the room. I'll just move it over by the bed. She hovered next to the cloud, her eyes just below the edge of the cloud.

[Zhooves 843]

As the heavy sleeper he was, he didn't notice the two walking into his room. Not even the metallic hoof-steps woke him up.

However, the noises did make him move slightly - he slowly rolled over onto his side, almost at, and facing the other edge of the cloud from where one of the two ponies had come from, where he started snoring quietly, wrapping himself up into his wings and part of the cloud.

Sitting behind the counter, Benjamin was fully concentrated on the work papers he was reading. It contained some information about the guests when they first booked the hotel rooms, so it would be good to study them for a while. However, under the counter, something odd caught his attention: the reserve key of the room number 40 was missing.

 

We barely inaugurated, and there is already a lost key?... He thought, as his left eye slightly twitched in annoyance. Iron Wing...

 

Benjamin raised from the chair and was about to go upstairs ask the armored worker about the missing key. When suddenly, a blue unicorn jolted downstairs.

 

"there is a yellow monster with black stripes in my room."

 

Benjamin's eye twitched once more. Even with all the paranormal events in the hotel, such thing as a 'monster with black stripes' was surreal. On top of that, Benjamin eyed the pony's cutie mark - a jester hat. It was obvious that the hysterical pony was just a clown - the "monster" was probably a joke or a prank.

 

Benjamin sighed, giving the unicorn a cold glance. "If you excuse me, sir, I got no time to play. I have business to take care of. " He said, as he walked past the jester pony, towards the stairway.

 

A monster, right?... Fool... You haven't seen anything yet.

He waited outside the door a little while, not sure what to do. He then got up and paced a bit. After a while the colt he met eariler ran out of a room with panic writen all over his face. "Whats his problem?" He said to himself. He continued to pace. He finaly got tired and layed down infront of Hellcats door and feel asleep there.

[ThatBronyGirl 49]

Honey Swirl was just about to turn and buck the cloud towards the bed, when it moved. She wouldn't have even noticed, had she not had her hoves on it. She squeaked and jumped back, falling out of the air. As the terrified mare sat on the ground, the cloud started to make odd noises. She looked over to Iron Wing, who was still busy with the window.

 

''Did you hear that?'' She wispered. The noises had quieted after the initial movement, but if she pricked her ears, she could hear a soft wispery noise. ''Iron Wing, it moved.''

 

She was certian that clouds shouldn't move, but this castle was creeping her out. What if it's a ghost? Honey Swirl wasn't made for this sort of thing. She was a domestic gaurd, for Luna's sake! She wasn't trained to deal with moving, noisey clouds. She hoped Iron was made out of tougher stuff than herself.

[Iron Wing 237]

@@Zhooves, @@ThatBronyGirl,

 

"What?" Iron Wing replied to Honey Swirl while she was closing the window. A moving cloud within a hotel room? Perhaps there is an intruder or something like that... She thought. "We´ll fix that in a minute..." Iron said and walked over to the cloud. She grabbed the cloud and pulled strongly on it causing a pony to fall to the ground. "Who is there? Identify yourself!" she grumbled while investigating who had fallen on the ground. She looked a bit closer just to see that it was the pegasus called Zhooves, another guest within this hotel. Iron Wing was a bit confused what could have happened. Perhaps within the earlier confusion downstairs a staff member has forgotten to do the register entries for room 40? she thought.

 

"Oh... um.... i beg for pardon. Mr Zhooves. There wasn´t an entry within the hotel registry that this room was already in use. We shall correct this mistake." she said to the sky blue stallion. Iron Wing turned around. "Well Miss Honey Swirl, because of an earlier confusion downstairs it appears that we have booked this room twice." Iron Wing grinned embarrassed. "Good thing that i have the reserve keys. Well, except the reserve key for this room. Maybe i can have a look at your key Miss Honey Swirl?" she asked nicely. "We just get you another room then." Iron Wing suggested. Luckily she had the keys for some of the room on this floor because she had cleaned up some of them some time ago.

As the cloud got pulled away, he fell to the floor, landing in an awkward position. As soon as he hit the floor he woke up, and after a few seconds of recovering from his sudden awakening he quickly fell over and stood up as tall as he was, giving the two in the room a creepy stare. His pupils had shrunk to an almost abnormal size, he spread his wings, and for once he stood up to his full height, which he usually bent down a little to hide.

 

He stood over the two, staring for a few seconds before shaking his head. His eyes had returned to their normal state, and he bent back down a little, before looking at them again with calm eyes.

"Hm...? Um... What are you doing here? Oh, a mistake you say? Well, that's good... That I can hear again, that is..." he said with a quiet voice.

While she was sleeping peacfuly she had awaken to a loud thump. She let out a quiet yelp as she woke up. She looked ove and saw Hellcat. "Umm, Hellcat...are you awake still." She asked keeping her voice down. If she wasnt awake she didnt want to wake her new friend.

[AustralianFries 213]

"So... Tired", Felix muttered to himself. The stallion pulled the covers that were laying on the floor back over himself. The dream he had experienced a few moments ago was rather intense, and he felt paranoid as he thought about it. Felix grunted after wrapping himself up inside the warm sheets. The pony laid in bed, gazing up to the ceiling, analyzing his nightmare. He quickly found himself uncomfortably warm under the trapped heat of the blankets and tossed them back to their original place. Felix couldn't go back to sleep.

 

A few minutes past by, and Felix forced himself to get up. The tired stallion sat upright on the side of the stiff bed, his ribs and back ached as he hunched over. With a sigh, he shifted his weight forward, and stood on all fours. He trotted over to the window, and slid the curtain to the side. He paused, re-imagining his nightmare. His eyes shut slowly, and the pony breathed out steadily. He allowed himself a few moments of bliss, as the suns rays struck him with warmth. The thought of the nightmare he had experienced slipped out of his mind.

 

Felix opened the light, wooden door. He took a small step into the hallway, so only about half of his body was out of his room. His head turned to the right, so he could look all the way down the long corridor. With a small exhale, Felix fully exited his room and shut the door behind him. He turned around and locked the door. He started to slowly trot down the hall. The pony moved his black glasses from the top of his head to in front of his bright green eyes. Most ponies had never even seen his eyes before, and he was notoriously known for wearing them. Felix was still half asleep, but felt more awake as he advanced down the long hallway. He slowely trotted into the lobby, once again, lookong for something to do. He couldn't fall asleep, so he concluded that he might as well sit in the lobby and think of something to entertain him.

hellcat rolled over and looked at bluebell "yeah, im awake, whats wrong?" she tilted her head and looked over at the younger mare, her eyes glowing a light red, before she stands up and trots over, "i havent felt right since i went too bed, *shakes her head *and i dont understand why."

[Driz 1,552]

Benjamin reached the first floor and trotted towards room number 40. The door was open - perhaps that was exactly where that young pegasus mare from before was going to stay. And as soon as Benjamin scanned the insides of the room, his doubt regarding the missing key was pretty much cleared: there were two guests inside - one of them sleeping - and Iron Wing with them, looking helpless.

 

"I was going to ask about the reserve key of room number 40, which was missing from under the reception counter." Benjamin said, entering the room. "But it seems like there's no need for such explanations anymore."

 

He glanced coldly at the iron worker, with an upset look on his face. He was hard to impress, but easy to disappoint. Not like Iron Wing really deserved his disappointment, but it was Benjamin's job to be strict. "Unfortunately, we cannot keep two guests in the same room. Unless you two are related, perhaps?"

[Dautt 77]

Jester went to his room hoping that the bee had left.

He looked through a small opening on the door, unfortunately it was still there.

He waited outside the room for it to leave looking through the door every few minutes until he fell asleep on the floor in front of the room.

Benjamin came into the room and asked about the reserve key for room number 40. He glanced coldly to Iron Wing with an upset look on his face. Iron Wing was a bit disappointed and angry about this expression. She went over to the manager, stood before him and started to tell in a dampened voice so that the guests couldn´t hear them. "Don´t give me that look. Because the reception pony Steve got scared of the spooky atmosphere within this castle, he went off back to Ponyville without even telling us. So i am working on the reception now for straight 4 hours because the guests who waited on the reception desk too long started to grab the keys like thieves..." she snorted to the manager.

 

"My shift was over 5 hours ago! Because i am working now within my freetime i managed to plan and organize most of the guests rooms who arrived here since Steve left. I don´t think i have to tell you that before my freetime i finished my work on the party room, placed every statue you ordered to the right locations and managed to finish the repairs in the dining hall..." she continued grunting. Iron Wing was annoyed and kinda shirty right now. "Now if you would let me finish my work, please..." she then said with an melodic and ironic voice. She turned to Honey Swirl and grabed her key. "We´ll get you into another room Miss Honey Swirl. Just follow me..." she said with nearly singing every word. She got the luggage and left the room, following the corridor to room 34. She opened the room and went in. The room was big and nice with a huge bed and much possibilities to relax. Iron Wing gave Honey Swirl the original key of room 34 and went outside. "I hope you like your new room. If you excuse me, i have work to do. Call me if you need something..."

@Iron Wing

Everything happened to fast to process. A blue pegasus had been dumped out of the cloud (turns out it was his room, oops), the gloomy grey stallion had come in and gotten angry at Iron Wing, then she was swept away to her new room. A key was givin to her and Iron went to leave the room.

 

''Excuse me, Miss? You didn't mean it when you called us.. theives, right?'' She looked hopefully towards the blue mare. Honey had thought she had found a freind... if that wasn't true, then she wanted to know now. It was probably just said out of anger. The blue mare seemed nice and members of the Royal Gaurd tended not to think like that towards civilians.

Iron Wing turned to Honey Swirl to answer her question. Although Iron had talked quiet with the manager, Honey seemed to have heard a couple of things. "Of course i didn´t mean it... you see, i just got a bit upset some minutes ago..." she started, more calm then before. "I am the main worker and in charge of the repairs of this castle. Because there is much to do with this old building, much strength and endurance is needed to keep up the repairs. On top of that, i am the only pony that can lift huge weights on construction sites into the air so i have to do all the hard work..." she sighed.

 

"Of course you can imagine that after a work day i just want to go relax somewhere. But today it just wasn´t possible. Somehow our reception pony wasn´t here so i have had to work within my freetime. Some of the guest just grabed keys without asking the staff members of the hotel. And they didn´t register within the hotel registation book so i had to do a lot organisation stuff on top of that all. I am just worn out a bit... I didn´t want to insult you, so i hope that you accept my honest apology. I don´t suspect any thieves around the guests." she said somewhat embarrassed.

Bell looked around the room to see what hellcat meant. "I-im not sure i understand." She said a little on edge now. She didnt like the thought of something bothering a millitary pony. As far as she was concerned, it probably isnt a good thing. "Do you mind..explaining?" After saying that she thought she heard something and let out another quiet yelp. She looked over to Hellcat for answers.

He then saw the mare Iron Wing helping somepony with..books? No luggage. He yawned again and decided to go back to his room. About half way there he colapsed on the floor and feel asleep again.

"Don't you dare speak to me like this again, tin can!" Benjamin bashed his hoof on the ground, staring deeply into Iron Wing's eyes, confronting her. "I could kick your miserable flank out of this hotel if I wanted." He shouted angrily. "I couldn't care less about how hard is your work. You work for me, and I demand you to work decently."

 

His lecture was soon interrupted when the last rays of sunlight subsided behind the forest outside the window, announcing the nighttime. Benjamin quickly regained his posture, glanced at the yellow mare guest and then turned back to Iron Wing. "...Accommodate the guests properly and go back to your room. I'll take over the night watch, as I said before." He said, as he trotted back to the staircase, going back to the reception downstairs.

He watched as the other ponies left his room. As soon as they left, he noticed it started to get dark outside, and he immediately felt revitalized.

"Well, it's time to get up I guess... No point in sleeping this early." he said, as he left the room, feeling sort of confused as for what he could do that was of interest.

He suddenly stopped, and gave off a tiny smile as he realized: There's a party-room here...

As soon as he was done thinking, he flew back into his room, grabbed his lyre, a small sheet of paper, and a blue pencil, which he placed in behind his ear.

"I'm ready I guess..." he said with a slightly shaky voice, as he started walking towards the party-room...
