It was noon on a Friday in Cloudsdale, and not a lot was going on. Midnight spring was at her Spa re-stylizing it for a new grand reopening. She made a motto that even went with it, Kick your hooves up and relax. It had been some time since she actually remodeled anything, let alone a whole spa building, but in the end it was well worth the effort.
Her new fashioned Spa consisted of white walls with gold flower trim, water blue mosaic tiles for the floor, and water blue stone counter tops. She hung up a banner that said Grand Reopening right above the front desk, she hoped that it would attract ponies to her spa
By the time she was done with the place she flipped the once closed sign to open. She took a deep breath and waited at the front desk ready to serve anypony who entered her Spa, she really needed the business, after all of that remodeling, she needed as many bits as she could in order to have the money she had before.

No soon had Midnight Spring flipped the sign as the door opened and a pegasus pony came inside. This was not just any pony, it was Whisper-Wind, a member of the elite military unit of Equestria, the Stars. Famous all over Equestria for their heroic deeds, and having as many fans as the Wonderbolts, or "Blunderbolts" as they call them.
Whisper Wind finally had some down time, a couple of days while his captain, Valkyrie Razorwing was off on her own assignment, thus leaving the entire unit free to their own devices. Whisper Wind had no liking for Valkyrie, or V as they called her. She had recently suspended his best friend, Horizon, off the unit.
He decided however, that since he never had time to properly relax after his encounter with the infamous Iron Shoes (the wounds earned in that fight still smarted), he might as well hop over to Cloudsdale. Lo and behold, a new Spa has just opened! The dark colored Pegasus decided this was the perfect chance for some R&R, and he entered swiftly.
"Hello," He said, half hoping the pegasus won't recognize him, and half hoping she will and give him a free massage. They weren't allowed to accept favors or gifts from civilians, but hey, he's on leave isn't he?

Midnight was looking at her hooves until a pegasus came into her spa. She smiled to the pegasus "Hello and welcome to Midnight Waters, open to noon to midnight." and she flew over the desk to shake the ponies hoof "My name is Midnight Spring, owner, and massage expert in this facility." she gave the pony another bright and vibrant smile flipping her mane from her face.

"Hi there! Name's Whisper Wind," He said, eyeing the reception area curiously, "Came here for some rest and relaxation. Been a long week." The Pegasus sent her back a bright smile, stretching his wings leisurely.
He wondered what services this Spa offered at all, and asked about them. Making sure to ask for the whole package. He really needed some relaxation. It wasn't like it's been any worse than under Percheron's time. But the added mental strain V has been adding to the job was really getting to the dark Pegasus. His dark coat felt like an old carpet on his skin, his eyelids felt heavier than his uniform armor. But the worst was this unnatural fatigue that enshrouded him. Without Horizon to goof around with, even despite all of his other friends in the Stars (of Course Pan took the chance to constantly make advancements towards him, since she knew how uncomfortable it made him).
Finally he snapped out of it and asked for the complete care package. A day of relaxation was just what he needed. And this mare looked like she might be a good conversationalist. Shouldn't be too bad should it? So long as V doesn't randomly show up and kick him out like she did with Horizon.

Midnight smiled at him "A full package! Very well then, a full treatment, that will be...." and she reaches over the desk and took out the spa menu reading it and doing the calculations in her head ...About 127 bits, and I am guessing that you would want to start now, so come with me."
She walked into a room with three spa massage beds. Next to the spa beds were two bottles of lotion. She guestered him to lay on the bed so she could begin "Now, in here i can give you a full back, leg, hoof, and wing massage, I just need you to lay on your stomach so I can begin." and she smiled to him.

Horizon did as he was asked, after all this is what he came for isn't it? Though he reckoned if a cute mare like that asked him to lie down on a bed he wouldn't say no regardless. Ugh, that must be Horizon rubbing off on him. Always going off with one mare or another.
Lying down on his stomach, he craned his head to see what Midnight was doing. She'd probably ask him to rest his head, but he figured it couldn't hurt to try and look. He couldn't help but wonder if she was the only pony in this Spa. He hoped he'd never want to come here while there was a line if that was the case.
It was very noticeable that he made no noise as he walked, nor as he levitated himself with his wings to the bed. After all, he was named Whisper Wind, and was a stealth specialist. He sent a smile at the mare, showing his pearly whites.
"So I notice this place is new, are you from Cloudsdale? I've been seeing a lot of folks from the colonies around lately." He mentioned, referring of course to colonies of the continent.

Midnight took a bottle of lotion and warms it in her hooves and she smiled a bit "I was born in Cloudsdale, my father was a doctor and my mother was a stunt pony, though I never liked those talents in my life, I was never keen on healing ponies with medicine, and as for flying.... well I get motion sick easy." She began to move his left wing outward so that she could massage it with a hoof and lotion. She started at the base of the wings and massaged it in between the hooves going to the tip and then back down to the base. "And what about you and your parents, did they do anything cool and awesome!" she said as she kept massaging his left wing carefully and softly.

"My dad is a Snowflake crafts pony in the Weather Factory. My mom's a cloud delivery pony, sending Clouds to Hoofington and Fillydelphia, which means she's really busy in the winter. Nothing too exciting. As for myself, I'm in the Stars." He said, a bit apprehensively, "We're based in Canterlot at the moment, but we move around." Undoubtedly by now she'd notice the many bruises and scabs on his body.
He rest his head quietly on the massage table and closed his eyes, trying his best to relax every muscle in his body. He also hoped the lotion wouldn't make his feathers sticky. He'd need them to fly, after all.
