Midnight didn't answer him until she had put everything from her bag away. She placed it back on the rack and walked back to the small kitchen area to make some tea.
"Oh, about 3 years is all. Would you like some tea?" She put the water on the burner and turned to walk to the doorway to the room he was in in case he had anymore questions.

Midnight smiled softly at him made her way out from under the table. Her wings were folded at her side still and she noticed her legs were still shaking a little. She made her way to the light switch by the door and flipped the lights on. The room wasn't terribly big. There was a small area that looked like the kitchen to the right and over near the table where she just was, was a bed. To the left when they came in were two more rooms with closed doors. She looked at him for a moment and then walked over to one of the doors and opened it, "You're welcome to stay in this room if you'd like. I can move some things around if they're in your way. But make yourself at home, even if it is only for a night." She stepped back away from the door and smiled at him, "Thank you for what you did just now and until we got here for that matter. They don't follow me to the house very often but when they do they do so with a purpose..."
Walking over to her saddlebag she removed it from the small hanger that was mounted on the wall. She walked to the small kitchen area and began to put away the things she bought while she was in town, trying to keep her mind from the events that transpired before they arrived. She was still a bit shaken up and tried not to show it, though her hooves still shook a little while she put things away.

Midnight hadn't noticed him walk over as she had brought her hooves up to cover her ears from the scratching at the walls. Her eyes opened as the sound of the flute reached her ears. Her ears twitched a little at the sound and she glanced up through the dark. As her eyes adjusted a little better she could see Granyl and smiled lightly to herself. The sound of scratching and growling slowly began to subside until the night air was quiet and still again. Midnight hadn't noticed, as she had started to hum along with the tune of his flute until she felt her breathing was regulating and her heartbeat slowed to a normal rate.

Midnight removed her saddlebag, cowl, and cape, hanging them up near where she was standing. She jumped at the sound of the Timberwolves outside scratching at the house and growling. She made her way to a nearby corner and crawled under a low-to-the-ground table that seemed to be conveniently placed there. She stayed under the table, ears pinned to the back of her head, eyes shut tight, and she was trying to calm herself down and keep herself from shaking. However, she didn't seem to make a sound, as if she was trying not to. Small whimpers would escape her when the Timberwolves got close and scratched the wall near where she was.

Midnight nodded upon seeing him get through the door. When he opened it, it wasn't necessarily heavy, but he could tell it wasn't a wooden door. She took one last glance behind her and her blood ran cold. Behind her was a pack of the Timberwolves. She turned away from them as she rushed through the door into the dark house. The pack seemed like they had gone through this very routine before. Four of them split into two groups and circled around both sides of the house while two others stayed and went to leap at the door, barking loudly. Midnight tried not to back away from the front door as was her usual habit. She swallowed and managed to tell Granyl in a rather shaky voice, "The door has an automatic lock when you close it from this side..."

Almost directly after he started galloping, her hooves carried her after him. Her legs may be short but they seemed to carry her well enough. Behind them, barking and growling could be heard as the Timberwolves started the chase. Midnight's house could be seen through a few more group of trees. It looked like a normal house but it seemed to have been redone a few times in what looked like heavy wood that had signs of scratch marks. She made sure her voice carried enough over the noise of their hooves and the Timberwolves to reach him in front of her, "The door is unlocked but if you don't mind, could you be ready to close it behind me? You may be able to close it fast enough before they can get their paws through the door..."

She blinked up at him, not realizing he had heard her. A genuine smile crossed her face, "Thank you, but I can explain more when we arrive at the house. We just have to cross through these trees and we'll be-" Her eyes widened and her head shot to the trees across the river. She narrowed her eyes and her pupils became small slits as her ears perked atop her head. "We need to hurry, go ahead of me the house should be just beyond these trees. Hurry!"
As she said it, glowing green orbs shown through the darkness of the trees and she turned to start running, watching them.

She gave a light smile and her features softened as she stopped to gaze into the stream, "It is. It's far away from everypony that can't handle my appearance..." She commented to herself and shook her head. She looked back, "We're almost there. Just a little ways to go." She crossed the bridge and it was a bit rickety but not badly enough to cause concern. She waited for him on the other side, seeming to not be as paranoid now.

Midnight glanced up at him and noted how he seemed to be thinking about something. She frowned a little and then blinked at the sudden glare of the moon. They came into a small clearing with a stream running through the middle of it. Midnight turned to the right towards a small but sturdy bridge that seemed to have been built just for the means of crossing the river. She glanced around for a moment into the trees behind and around her.

Midnight looked up at him with a wary glance and nodded, still quite unsure why she trusted this pony so much. She would never put her life in the hooves of any other pony that she even knew remotely. Yet here she was trusting that this stallion she just met would get her safely to her home. She tried to calm down even a little; she had done this plenty of times before, and it always had the same effect on her. She tried to act strong for herself but the reality of the situation always carried itself to sit upon her shoulders when it wasn't welcomed. She gave him a small smile trying to reassure him that she was reassured, shivering a little at the sudden chill she got. She focused on the path ahead and continued walking trying not to think about the things around them in the trees.
