“Rarity?” Octavia steps in front of the white mare. “How come you’re not picking anything up if your horn is glowing? Are you planning to cast a spell or something?” She asks.

“Ahhh perfect, Octavia just gave me the right oppotunity to make Rarity drop whatever she’s planning.” Twilight moves behind Octavia to use this gesture for Rarity will still see her yes, but will also be seeing Octavia too. “I have this under my control.”

“For Octavia’s sake I can’t do this. Not in Canterlot, not with Luna nearby, not with Celestia coming back anytime soon, not with Octavia here and with the chance of her getting harmed.” Rarity took the time to think this through and ceased her magic making her armor fall back to the floor.

“I-I sometimes let my horn glow whenever I get surprised.” Rarity doesn’t like lying since a lady is ever so truthful.

“Oh well that’s something new.” Octavia moved to at Rarity's side. “All righty then let me lay down the details given the face you made when Twilight came in. I’m going to have lunch with my long really long estranged mother somepony I have never spoken to you about and I know you don’t know who she is so I’ll be brief like Rainbow Dash brief. My mother Harmonic Breeze was once a famous singer, fame and money took over her life basically abandoning me and my father, then my father and I went to visit her to which we found her having sex with another stallion, my father’s heart shattered, I severed everything with my mother, my father and I bonded so much but with his shattered heart he got cancer, ok you already know about my father so I will skip those sad details, anyway I decided to reconnect with my mother seeing that she is the last of my mortality, and I know Gold Sky will want me to reconnect with her.” Octavia took hold of Rarity and Twilight bringing both of them close while in her happiness Rarity eyes Twilight with anger filled eyes while Twilight gives Rarity a smirk but a controlled one thinking Rarity has mastered something. Something powerful. Nonetheless, Twilight telepathically connected to Rarity’s mind.

“You’re finally back Rarity, I’m glad you’re back from wherever that weakling took you.” Twilight said the last word to get a reaction from Rarity, whether it be good or bad.

Rarity will not spring Twilight’s trap rather she will restrain herself. “Wow, now I see why you always acted weird whenever I invited you to join me and my mother for tea. But why will you want me an-and Twilight to join you if you don’t mind me asking.”

“Dang it!” Twilight sees her trap will be untouched.

Octavia let’s go of the two mares giving Rarity nice distance from Twilight Sparkle. “Well I always planned to have you join us because you are the most mature mare I know besides Celli, Cadance, and Luna.” The gray mare said Luna’s name last on purpose and not because of alphabetical order. “Also Twilight here was a big help to make this happen thanks to her advice and became my shadow when I visited my mother again. Isn’t that right Twilight?”

“Oh yes it is.” Twilight happily holds her head high like a peacock even though it’s the male peacocks that have the beautiful feathers but Twilight is still proud like one.

“Hmm so that explains Twilight’s sudden closeness to Octavia she thinks she can use her book knowledge to help Octavia reconnect with her mother so Twilight is doing this for her own personal gain and not to find Gold Sky however, I’m quite appalled for hearing her call Gold Sky, weakling. Still I must handle this with great care and keep my mind clear so Twilight cannot find out about Gold Sky and more importantly Gilda.” The galaxy in Rarity’s mind starts revolving sending out thought after thought into the fray confusing Twilight with things like dress, chocolate, lace, sapphire, silk, pink blood diamonds, scrambled eggs, not Spike in order to protect him, Shining Armor to really throw off Twilight, Luna to spook her a bit, Cadance to contain her, cookies, and Celestia to really remind Twilight whatever she plans Celestia will eventually find out. (Big if though)

“Any who! Times are wasting so let’s go have lunch!” In her joyous mood the gray mare pushed the two mares to get them moving along. “I’m happy to have you two join me!” Now if only the happiness can be reflected on the two but for good reasons there is no happy being reflected, happily though both will agree to put aside what they want to keep Octavia happy.
Octavia mean so much to both mares sort of like she is a ring that is so beautiful it cannot be worn by anyone but it can only be cared for.

“Watch yourself Twilight!” Rarity mouths.

Twilight just tips her nose up likes she’s the one with the poise and grandeur.
So the three of them with Octavia in between for a convenient stroke of luck canter out of the palace while up above Luna smiles for Rarity is away from Rainbow Dash, of course, what can be the source of her immense discomfort whenever Rarity and Rainbow Dash are together? Well it’s the fact Luna knows they are both made for each other and Love is something she cannot interfere with even though she is with Rainbow. Luna is afraid a spark will just resurge. A spark she thought was put out when she gave Rarity and Rainbow their little date but it looks she herself is the one being tense about the spark for she doubts Rainbow’s Loyalty and she doubts Rarity’s word.

“Octavia, where are we going to have lunch?” Twilight asks.

“Well I originally planned to have lunch with her in the nice restaurant she sings at to secretly shame her but I decided not there also I planned the Sugarcube Corner but I changed my mind instead we’ll go to the nice café in Ponyville.” Octavia points at the path that will lead to the front door of her mother’s dominion. “Twilight if I’m not asking too much can you teleport us to Ponyville? I don’t feel like using the train today.”

“Sure it won’t be a problem Octavia.” Twilight laid her left hoof on Octavia’s shoulder but paused for three seconds for she will have to place her right hoof on Rarity’s shoulder and Rarity is giving her the serious eyes along with pointing to the forehead meaning a telepathic connection needs to be established.

“Just this once Twilight I will let you touch me but if you try anything else so help me Celestia, Luna, and Cadance. Trust me I am greatly restraining myself right now.” Rarity lightly flicks her head to her shoulder so Twilight can touch her.

Twilight touches Rarity. “I am also restraining myself too Rarity.”

Just then in perfect timing. “All for Octavia’s sake…what!” Both mares say it at the same time. “Stop it!” In perfect unison. “No you stop!” Unison again.

“Kiss me!” Uhmmm Rarity wasn’t in sync with Twilight on that one. “Oh that was so me.” Twilight gives Rarity a wink. “All right we’re teleporting.”

*Poof*

The three mares reappeared in front of Harmonic Breeze’s door and Octavia did the knocking. In one minute the old mare opened the door. “Octavia.” Harmonic breathes out with a touch of happiness but stopped her arms from rising knowing a hug is still out of the question. “We’re going to have lunch and there is Twilight, hey Twilight.” Harmonic waves to the lavender Unicorn. “Rarity, oh my, I didn’t know you knew my daughter!”

“She’s my sister in law, mother.”

Harmonic Breeze oohed to hear this before doing an oh. “You’re her husband’s sister, wow.”

Rarity opened her mouth to speak. “Any who.” Octavia took Rarity’s chance and started speaking. “Let’s go to lunch, come along mother.” Octavia got the old mare moving.

“It’s past lunch time Octavia.” Harmonic Breeze points out.

“Yes well lunch still sounds better than early dinner wouldn’t you say.” Octavia looks back at Twilight to get an encouraging smile.

“Oh this so isn’t good.” Rarity tells herself.

“I guess you’re right about that.” Harmonic Breeze agrees with her daughter.

With the occurring walk to the café Rarity’s azure eyes shift to gaze at Twilight, knowing that mare is trying to read her mind, still Rarity kids herself to see this as time she’ll be spending time with her friend after all Lauren said she will forgive Twilight so why not take this opportunity to see Twilight as her good friend to which she is of course…on the surface. Below the surface is the mare who thinks like the Razor, maybe scared of the Razor, likes the Razor, and can be like the Razor. A great mind can do great things be it good or bad, Twilight will put her great mind to use at Rarity's expense. *Quiet sigh* Rarity shifts her eyes away from Twilight feeling cold that she can think Twilight is her friend right now, she is the enemy, an enemy that is capable of anything just like the Razor and an enemy who has Octavia in her grasp. Now she doesn’t want to think what if Twilight has Gilda in her grasp. “So help me Lauren.”

Twilight shifts her violet eyes to gaze a bit at Rarity. She made no attempt to read Rarity’s now unreadable mind due many thoughts being thrown around sound like a mixture of different languages or Pinkie Pie speaking ultra-fast about cake frosting instead she begins to feel guilty how she harmed her dearest friend so many times not just physically but emotionally as well Twilight asks herself if there can ever be a friendship between them given the circumstances, inside she hopes there will be one. A friend like Rarity who is there to help no matter the extremity or mess, so why can’t her resourceful mind come up with something to heal the wounds? There’s the black rose stopping that thought process plus lust also she deeply desires to have Rarity by her side. Oh dear Twilight wants two things but as she is right now she will rather have one, Rarity’s heart. Besides when it boils down to get what she wants…it’s all a means to an end. Gold Sky can attest to that plus Princess Celestia unintentionally though, oh perhaps Delta Scorch too...add Fluttershy…ahh, and Rainbow Dash.
At arriving to the café all four got shone to their table, Rarity errked to the prospect of sitting next to Twilight however, Octavia tapped the chair next to her so Twilight can sit there giving Rarity a sigh of relief. After ordering, a long silence fell, clearly nopony has anything to say much less small talk like how’s the day today or has anypony been to the theater to see the classic film Arriving with the Breeze. Octavia rubs her belly, Rarity gazes at the to be mother while thinking, Harmonic Breeze awaits if her daughter will be nice or not, and Twilight wonders where Rarity was all this time. Heck Pinkie Pie will so spice up the atmosphere, but well it’s only the four of them and Pinkie Pie has somewhere to be at.

“So.” Twilight takes the silence and kills it in its sleep with a pillow. “Rarity.”

“Great.” Rarity hates the fact she saw this coming.

“How was your little trip?” Oh that evil smirk on Twilight’s face.

“Trip?” Octavia acts the way Twilight expected. “Rarity, you went on a trip and you didn’t tell me?”

Rarity grabbed her drink to buy some time to think up something. “Don’t say Griffon Republic, don’t say Griffon Republic.” *Ahem* “I’ve been to the Stronghold of Tyre and it was uh revolutionary.” Well a Lady can’t lie and Rarity isn’t lying per se she’s not saying where she’s specifically been.

“Stronghold of Tyre? Where’s that at Rarity? I never heard of that place.” Octavia asks.

“Phew. Well Octavia the Stronghold of Tyre is in the uhmmm Felidae & Avian kingdom. I went to deliver a new clothes line and ended up staying for a few days to create dresses and suits for the citizens there also did you know their vice president is a mare or in this case a female.” Technically Griffons are both felidae and avian, technically.

Octavia and Harmonic Breeze oohed in delight, Twilight could care less. “They have a mare err I-I mean a female vice president, wow and I’m amazed you’re doing great business outside of Equestria.”

“Me too.” Says Harmonic Breeze.

“Why thank you Octavia.” So far things are sailing smoothly.

*Ting* Twilight realizes something in Rarity’s words.

“Say and what’s the name of this kingdom? Surely if Felidaes and Avians can live together then they must have a really nice sounding name like the Kingdom of Unified species or Empire no not empire uh the United Alliance! Hehehe this is quite fun actually.”

Rarity found herself in a rut, she’s flawless coming up with designs but not flawless at coming up with names like she literally called Twilight’s beautiful gala dress the star dress really she called it the star dress and Fluttershy’s gala dress the light green one yeah the light green one. She wished she remembered the names Gold Sky called his tomahawk and knife; they were called something like the Wind’s Claw and Harbinger of Death. Well not much to her taste. “It’s called…” Twilight speaks up.

“The Griffon Republic, Octavia. Rarity has the tendency to go into too much detail sometimes and she went into too much detail right now by calling the griffons their family name and clade…they’re scientific classifications Octavia. Of course back to topic, Griffon Republic, Rarity you went to the Griffon Republic right?” Twilight won’t use her telepathy to verify if Rarity really went to the Republic she will have to rely on her intuition something of which seems very illogical to her for she considers emotions to be very cryptic even in the best interpretations.

“No this isn’t good!” Rarity keeps her poise to prevent Twilight from reading her facial expressions. “Yes.” Seriously answered. “I tele, traveled, I traveled to the Griffon Republic got a warm welcome and found out the vice president is a big fan so much of a fan she even brought me to a meeting where the president, general, secretary of defense, and an old member of congress discussed something important regarding their military but the old member sure had a lot of wine to share.”

Twilight can’t tell if Rarity is lying or telling the truth, her telepathy only picks up massive gibberish from the spinning galaxy. Octavia and Harmonic Breeze are very impressed by Rarity’s little trip. “Rarity even though you went on a business trip I will call it a vacation in my opinion.” Harmonic Breeze moves her hair back. “And the griffons, are they big as the stories say?”

“Bigger. Bigger than Big McIntosh big, I mean even the females are big as for height yes they’re taller than Big Macintosh but not as tall as Princess Luna also they’re strong I flew on the back of one. Oh they have the best tea ever!” Rarity wished she had some tea from the Griffon Republic right now instead of zero calorie soda.

“I wish studied more about reading one’s facial expressions and I should have studied the infrared magic spell when I had the chance so I can see her body temperature!” Twilight fumed while stopping herself from making a mad facial expression.

Rarity went on providing details ignoring Twilight looking at her but had to acknowledge Twilight whenever a question come from the Unicorn's lips. “So Rarity, did anypony else accompany you on your business trip?”

Oh how this lady is pushed to a corner where the thing to do is lie and hope Octavia will accept it like it’s truth because if the gray mare accepts it then Twilight cannot question it also there is Harmonic Breeze to add to the peer pressure. “No, nopony accompanied me Twilight.”

Octavia accepted it. “Like why would Rarity need anypony to accompany a savvy business pony like her? She can take care of herself. Can you Rarity?”

As if lying once isn’t bad enough. “Yes.” An opening presented itself to maneuver this into territory Twilight won’t trek. “Though I would have liked if my Spikey-Wikey accompanied me, oh it will have been a vacation rather than a business trip.”

Octavia couldn’t help but place a hoof over her heart to once again hear Rarity speak so dearly of Spike. Harmonic Breeze, on the other side of the table scratches her head in complete confusion given the reason that what kind of a pony will be called Spike. “Who’s Spike? Is he some kind of super athletic pony or is he a rock star?”

“Spike is my num-num-number one assistant Harmonic Breeze also he isn’t a pony he’s a young dragon. A purple dragon who has a big crush on Rarity.” Twilight explained.

“He’s a dragon?” Harmonic Breeze eyes widened. “Did I hear it right, did you say he’s a dragon and he has a crush on y-you? An-and Rarity do you like him too??”

Before answering Rarity turns to look at Twilight not with the slightest form of dismay but with a fierce sly smile remembering how Twilight went silent when Rarity first told Twilight about her loving feelings for Spike. “No Harmonic Breeze I don’t like him, I am deeply in love with him. Ooh not a day goes by in which I don’t think about him and his durable as diamond but soft to the touch scales.”

*Glass shatters* In the midst of those words Twilight vented her discontent by dropping her glass to the floor scaring Octavia a bit.
“Perfect I knew Twilight will get upset.” Rarity feels less tense now. “I hope she gets speechless and teleports away giving me time to think up something and also ask Octavia how she’s gotten so close to Twilight.” Rarity almost forgot about somepony. “Oh and get to know Harmonic Breeze too for Octavia’s sake.” Even though she may get mad or maybe tear eyed but most likely mad to talk to such a mare who did great harm to Octavia and Allegro Note.

“What happened Twilight?” Octavia asks.

Twilight did a deep breath just like the way Cadance taught her. “I jerked my arm accidently hitting my drink.”

Rarity groans under her breath. “Well the food is here.”

Indeed the food is set before them; Octavia only gave her mother a one second gaze and gave Twilight a hearty smile. For Rarity Octavia also gave her a hearty smile and to this happy smile a radiating Twilight looks into Rarity’s eyes and Rarity looks into Twilight’s eyes. Both know what they have to do.

“All for Octavia’s sake.” Both chanted in unison and smiled to one another like what they’re doing is a genuine act.

Twilight with the last word gives Rarity a wink.

“Wonderful!” Though Octavia does not show it, she is happy to be with her mother, sister in law, and wise friend.

In Sweet Apple Acres.

“I know Big Mac, the wait is becoming almost unbearable for you isn’t it?” Bon Bon asks.

“Yes Bon Bon the wait is always the worse part and the food is still amazingly steaming hot.” He placed his nose over the food to sniff the dancing steam. “Eeyup the food is still warm.

Bon Bon stands behind him and starts rubbing Big Mac’s back.
“Big Macintosh, I think this is the absolute worst time for me to ask you this question but my curiosity is getting the best me so I have to ask. Uh what did Lyra tell you that made you get so scared?”

Big Macintosh blew out his breath blowing off the steam. He isn’t afraid right now but the thought of Lyra Heartstrings doing what she has planned for him if Bon Bon kisses him is just disgusting. Disgusting for the fact she will inflict her will on the noble mind and body. “If you want to know Bon Bon then please stay where you are right now because Ah don’t want to see your face and those cute cyan eyes of yours.” The red stallion took a deep breath while twitching his ears to hear any sudden movement from the cream colored mare. “Lyra licked my nose and told me if you were to ever kiss me on the lips she will find out, she will come directly to me and will do anything in her power to seduce me so…you know. Or use brute force but that part will fail still she knows Ah am very noble and almost honor bound.” Big Macintosh turns the chair so he can look at Bon Bon. “Ah still have my purity if you’re curious about that too.”

Bon Bon’s eyes widened. “Big Mac you’re still a vir…” Interrupted by a snort.

“Don’t act all surprised and with that tone of voice too. Why is it that many see me keeping my purity until Ah find the right mare for me a sin? When the sin is giving up one’s purity before committing themselves to their wife or husband. Yes Ah’m handsome even you will happily admit that and so will Ah but others will ask me how many mares did Ah score with to which my answer will be telling them to get lost. Ah face temptation, conflict, peer pressure, and sometimes Ah feel a bit lonely when Ah see Gold Sky with Octavia, Caramel with Wind Whistler, Princess Cadance with Prince Shining Armor, and the Cakes. All of them have found the Love of their Lives but Ah have not. Nevertheless, Ah will never dishonor myself and just have sex with any mare and that’s that, no. Ah will find the right mare then we shall commit to each other by sealing our love through marriage and unite our bodies for we shall become one because our Love is wonderful.” Big Mac looks down breaking eye contact with Bon Bon but starts smiling for no reason. “True Love is what Ah desire. True love is why Ah will never dishonor myself like everypony else does.”

Bon Bon rubbed the back of her head and sighed for she is ashamed for being surprised how Big Macintosh is doing the right thing. “Big Macintosh, I’m sorry for getting surprised when you are simply doing the right thing, I-I just used toooo…” Bon Bon stopped to wave her left hoof in the air for a bit. “Think that stallions are prone to just go and uhm, uhm, uhm, score with mares and truth be told I also thought mares will go and score too. I…I guess I’ve been indoctrinated by some of society to think what I thought about stallions and mares. I’m sorry Big Macintosh, I’m very sorry.”

Big Macintosh softly smiled. “It’s okay Bon Bon now come here and give me a hug.” He took her into his arms. “At least you’re not curious anymore and Ah love you Bon Bon Ah love ya very much.”

“Ah Love you too Big Mac.” Bon Bon’s smile suddenly turns into a frown to the fact Big Macintosh has been threatened by Lyra but even then when his honor is on the line he stands his ground to protect her. “So how’s the wait coming along?”

*Groan* “Oooh why did you have to bring that up. You either want me to hug you or go back being impatient like Pinkie Pie waiting for popcorn to pop.”

“Oops how about you keep hugging me Big Mac and then you go back to being impatient. Deal?”

The red stallion chuckles. “Deal. A deal that will always be a deal Bon Bonny.” He ended up laughing in the end.

“Oh you Big Macintosh.” Bon Bon’s frown reverts back to its smile.

*Knock knock* Big Macintosh gasps like Rarity being graced by a surprise visit from Princess Celestia. “She’s here! She’s here!! Bon Bon, she’s here!!” Big Mac held Bon Bon in front of him and just starting shaking her like he’s trying to get fleas off of her. “She’s here!! She’s here!”

“Oooh I think I’m getting nauseated. “Bon Bon’s face start getting green.’’

“Uh Oh.” Big Macintosh puts down Bon Bon so she wouldn’t vomit on the dinner they worked so hard to create. “Bon Bon, hit the sack!”

“Ye-yeah sure.” She wobbles up the stairs trying to keep her food down. “Oooh never knew he can make me this dizzy.” Luckily Bon Bon makes it to her room and really hits the sack.

“Okay Big Macintosh, outside is Pinkie Pie and she’s ready for a dinner but Ah made her not just any dinner Ah made her the best dinner. Okay, okay, let me see.” Big Macintosh checks his breath. “Hmmm it can use a minty touch.” He sprays some breath spray. “Hmm much better. Alrighty then here Ah go.” Big Macintosh opens the door. “Huh!? What the heck?” Pinkie Pie is nowhere to be found instead all he finds is a rather large box on his door step. “That’s weird shouldn’t Ah be signing this?” He looks around for the mail stallion. “Strange he must have been in a hurry huh?” He sees a note taped on the top. “It’s say to open it inside. Eh it could be something cool inside.”
The red stallion pushes the box inside. “Better make this quick in case Pinkie arrives any time soon.”

However the instant he places his hoof on the box it just opens up with confetti shooting out and party horns blaring scaring the friendship is magic out of Big Macintosh.

“BIG MAC!” Yes it is who it is. “I’m here for our nice dinner.”

Big Macintosh came back around. “Such a clever way for her to show up…another reason why Ah love her.”
“Perfect now let me show you to your seat Pinkie.” With grace Big Mac shows the pink mare to her seat smiling happily as he does because he will having a moment with the mare he wishes to spend the rest of life with and a mare whom he will honor by one day proposing to her.

“Wow, Big Macintosh everything here looks it’s been cooked by the best chefs in Canterlot; hey are those apples covered in pony Dane chocolate!” Pinkie’s creepy long tongue licks her chops just like Maslow’s dogs drools when it hears the bell ringing.

Big Macintosh chuckles again feeling pleased with himself to see Pinkie’s admiration in the food he and Bon Bon cooked up. “Yes those apples are covered in pony Dane chocolate.” He takes his place in front of Pinkie and gives a hearty smile so he can receive one in return from Pinkie allowing him to feel more pleased with himself.

“Wonderful Big Macintosh, wonderful as Rarity getting the finest cloths or Rainbow Dash being told she’s awesome as ever.” As Big Macintosh wanted she smiles at him.
“Dig in Pinkie Pie.” Big Macintosh pours apple juice for Pinkie and both break bread to enjoy this dinner.

From the top of the stairs Bon Bon takes a peek to see if everything is going well and to her satisfaction everything is going well.

“Love take them over.” Bon Bon says in her mind.

***
In Ponyville.

Rarity and Twilight still give each other serious glances to one another knowing each has plans but for today both agreed to stay down by having a truce for Octavia’s sake. It can be compared to the truces created by the Northern and Southern Hellenics who always spent years fighting each other, pray tell in their abilities the Southern Hellenics were superior in the battlefield given their militaristic upbringing starting at birth while the Northern Hellenics were superior at sea given their close relation to the sea, of course, the truces will come when a much more threatening enemy from the west will come prompting both sides to put aside their differences and unite under a common goal only to be conquered by someone else many years later but that’s a different and it does not apply to Rarity and Twilight Sparkle in any way. Theoretically if the two mares can be compared to these once glorious societies Twilight Sparkle has both of the traits that makes each one superior to one another in those certain aspects while Rarity has a mixture of both but not in the fullest extent like Twilight Sparkle. And Octavia the lovely gray mare is the cause for this truce and this cause is going unintentionally test the strength of this truce. Truly…nobody can really blame Octavia.

Meanwhile Harmonic Breeze and Octavia are in a slow conversation. Slow for the fact both are trying to keep it going by finding common ground in…well something. Octavia though is passive to feel her heart getting used to Harmonic Breeze the mare who is her mother and nothing more adding to the passiveness Octavia has been taking time in the cover of night to remember the scarce moments she spent with mother the moments that are loving and not heart breaking.

Mother, Harmonic Breeze, will brush a young Octavia’s hair while saying how beautiful it is. “Oh Octavia your hair is so beautiful imagine how you will look when the wind is making it fly all over. I must say you sure did get my hair but you got dad’s eyes now will like me to straighten out your bangs sweetie?”

“No mommy I like my bangs the way they are. Now when is father going to be done with the food? I can’t wait for our picnic in the park!” The little gray mare asks while being stroked by mother’s once loving hoof.

“I’m sure he’s almost done sweetie, cooking isn’t exactly a simple walk in the park and it does take time. But will you like me to pack a scarf in case it gets windy?” Harmonic Breeze asks.

“I don’t think it’ll get windy mommy and if it does it so what. I love it when the wind glides over my coat and it will make my hair fly over my face. Ooh father!” Octavia sees Allegro Note holding the picnic basket. “Is everything ready!”

The stallion lowers the basket so he can speak. “Yes my dearest Octavia everything is ready, now let’s go have fun.” He quickly but tenderly rubs Octavia’s cheek.

That is the last time all three them were a family because two days after that nice picnic a record producer discovered Harmonic Breeze’s angelic voice and from there Mommy became into just a somepony who harmed her and father.

Even then that is in the past thanks to forgiveness so at least if and that is a big if, if Octavia wants to do something out of nostalgia then she can decide to have a picnic with mother and let the old mare brush her hair, just like in the last memory.

Meanwhile, Rarity gives Twilight a serious glance she points to her forehead making Twilight tilts her head a few degrees but obliges out of curiosity just to hear Rarity’s beautiful voice and record it so she can replay it over and over like a fantasy.
“Stop looking at me Twilight! If we’re going to do this and just act like the good friends we are which we’re not by the way then you will have to stop looking at me! I mean it, stop!”

Twilight can’t tell if she should be surprised or not. “We are good friends Rarity, you know Friendship is Magic or in case you forgotten you said so yourself when we first met and probably the reason I started to fall in Love with you but the more you keep this up the more blind you will become.”

Rarity without thought gives Octavia a smile and starts eating her food as a cover for the telepathic havoc going on in her mind. “Blind! The only one who’s blind here is you Twilight. You think you can have me as your loving soul mate even after what you did to me, humph, well Twilight I will fight you to the end and I shall drag you to Princess Celestia so she can see what her faithful student has done to me.”

“Oh Rarity huh?” Twilight felt a nudge from Octavia.

“Twilight, mother here won’t believe me when I told her you’re Princess Celestia’s most faithful student and very close to you.”

Still on the page of pride with a twinge of exasperation due to being distracted from recording Rarity’s voice but will direct this saturated outcome to Harmonic Breeze. “Well that’s very stupid of her to doubt your word.” Again under any normal circumstances will Twilight talk like this but this isn’t a normal circumstance in the first place so all is forgiven.

Octavia on the other hand or hoof takes Twilight’s very unkind words with a lighthearted giggle. “Heh you can say that again but Rarity will prefer that you will not, right Rarity?”

“Oh huh what? I-I mean no yes no what just happened I was lost in this…edible stuff.” A lie from a lady who couldn’t even identify what she’s eating. Talk about acting on the whim of a daze that is beclouded by ire for being close to the Alpha Wolf and is forced to act like a cuddly domesticated dog just like the Alpha Wolf too if that makes things any better. Poor Dire Wolf.

Octavia shrugs off Rarity’s little out of character spasm.

Twilight clears her throat to get back on Harmonic Breeze. “Harmonic Breeze, I am Celli’s err Princess Celestia’s most faithful student and yes, I am very close to her also If you’re wondering I am the most unique Unicorn there is or as Rarity will put it- chic, unique, and magnifique!”

Rarity maintains the flawless poise but rolls her eyes in disdain to hear her words be used by Twilight to show a squeaky clean image through deception. “Please let this end. I really want to take Octavia to Gold Sky.”

Telepathically wise, Twilight secretly listens in to Rarity’s thoughts but what she hears is complete rubbish from the king of diamonds to the mane of Nightmare Moon, Wind’s claw, Harbinger of Death, Discord in a suit Rarity made for him, Spike tearing a green dragon apart, Fancy Pants & Fleur-di-Lis, rubies, stag meat alright that’s weird, war which is also weird, more Nightmare Moon, and other stuff oh plus a drooling female griffon with wide eyes. “Rarity is dealing with my telepathy in a rather ingenious way, man it’s me so happy I can give her a big wet kiss. I will really love that.” Indeed.

After some real laughter from the mother and daughter and fake laughter from Rarity and Twilight followed by Twilight giving Rarity another wink the four finally shut up and eat.

*sigh*

“Cadance?” Shining Armor, gently nuzzles his wife on the cheek but get no response in return. “Cadance, are you in deep concentration again?” The stallion receives no response from his wife. “All right then, I will leave you alone and I will handle the ruling.” Shining Armor gave Cadance a peck on her cheek and left.

Cadance is in deep concentration telepathically watching over four ponies at the same time hearing countless thoughts going about fortunately Cadance is able filter each one with ease, that dream she had hit too close to home especially Luna turning in Nightmare Moon again and Gilda dying the same way her father did even though he offered his life to save hers to no anvil.

Little does anybody knows besides her and the Yahshua, is her reaction at feeling Gold Sky die the first time. Cadance only frowned but immediately accepted it and even joked with Tia when Tia telepathically requested her to avoid the dining room and go somewhere else with Shining Armor so Cadance acted like a little devil for laughs.

Why did Cadance exhibit such behavior when she felt her own brother die?
Well the reason is…she knew Yahshua had something planned for Gold Sky, she knew already Yahshua will give Gold Sky a second chance but he will not give a third chance. That is why Cadance acted the way she acted around Tia and Octavia she already knew Gold Sky will come back.

However, now that there' a chance Gold Sky will die again she is serious. “He is my brother and he is Love. If he goes what’s to happen if I am incapacitated and Love is needed? Only I can weld the Element of Love and probably him but that still has yet to be seen. And seeing his thoughts only I can enlighten him to his purpose, being a father, that is his purpose and if Gilda goes before Octavia gives birth to her son then truly as Gold Sky said in the dream; it doesn’t matter. For if he loses purpose then he loses all direction and will end up following one direction out of instinct.” Cadance focuses on Gold Sky’s mind to see what he sees through his eyes. “To kill the one who took away his purpose.” Then. “Isn’t that right father?”

“Yes it is my dearest daughter.” Says Yahshua.

“An Immortal living the life of a Mortal is nearly a curse upon itself especially when the immortal tries to fill in the void through the wife only to awaken the mortal anger.”

Meanwhile.
“Wait a minute!? How the hell did Octavia’s father end up with Octy as his nickname if his name is Allegro Note??” Hmmmm thinks the adorable lavender Unicorn.

***

In the Canterlot Palace.

Princess Luna cannot decide whether she should take Delta Scorch on walk with her through the nature surrounding Ponyville or perhaps go pay Cloud Kicker’s work place and use her royalty status to give the Pegasus an early release from work or lastly just go out with Rainbow Dash to reel in from her deep uncertainty to the time Rainbow Dash and Rarity spent together. “
“Son, Future Daughter in Law, my dearest love.” The three faces revolve around Luna’s head. “Which one can I choose?” The latter is the most logical choice given this is Luna.

From above Rainbow hovers down to be before Luna with only one question in mind. “Luna.”

Feeling warm to be with her Rainbow, Luna rubs her head against Rainbow’s cheek to enjoy her love’s physical touch. “Oh Rainbow let me enjoy this.”

But Rainbow Dash wants answers now and not later! “Luna, I want to ask you something!” She jerks back her head leaving Luna rubbing the thin air.

*sigh* “What is it you ask my lovely Rainbow Dash?”

“Luna you never demand any of my friends to give you the royal formalities you otherwise will demand from your subjects. Rarity is my friend and your friend too so why will you belittle her like that! Why!? I saw the way you looked at her when you appeared before the both of us. I saw disgust and massive distrust when you focused on Rarity and that little aggravated groan you made when Rarity asked you a question just angered me but for you I suppressed it because I didn’t want to embarrass you in front of Rarity.” Rainbow’s wings shoot out to express the seriousness inside.

Luna hides what she’s thinking, given her age and her heart fearing losing something so precious through an argument. She will use age, emotion, and facial expressions to answer the question. “Rainbow Dash, let me put it this way you and Rarity already had your little date and you sealed it with a kiss…loving one…a kiss two ponies that are made for each other will naturally give each other. Why do you continue spending time alone with her when you spend that time with other friends or use it to spend time with my son or maybe Celli. I understand you care about her a lot but considering the pain she’s given you perhaps you reconsider about bringing her with you to your Wonderbolt auditions.”

“Wha!!?” Taken by surprise Rainbow connects the meaning of the words Luna has spoken. “That was only…okay not the only time, I kissed her and I think she enjoyed it but, but what are you talking about pain!? She has not given me any pain Luna in fact she is the one who tried to take away my pain.”

With a serious demeanor like the light a Lunar eclipse Luna causally explains. “Didn’t Rarity rejecting your love for her harmed you? Do you think you will be able to get over such great pain and then be so close to her without even thinking about that pain not even once?”

Rainbow folded her wings back to her body. “I didn’t know Rarity was in love Luna and do you think I will be cruel enough to attempt to take something that isn’t mine in the first place. Yes I was hurt but I got over it, you know why Luna?”

Luna will go along. “Why?”

“Rarity is my friend and she shall always be my friend Luna. I know she will never let me down; she will take me into her arms in case I need to cry on her shoulder, and in case I haven’t told you before Rarity was the first pony I ever fell in love so I think even you should see that will leave a place in my heart Luna buuuuut!” Oh man Luna does not like what will come after this even if she’s expecting it. “Why are you so uncomfortable whenever I’m around Rarity? Do you think we’re…” *Ting*

“Huh?” Luna clearly heard the sound but she does not know where it came from or what it even means.

In the end Rainbow Dash ears drop just like her head moving down a low angle that’s always prevalent in a frown. “You know what Luna, forget it, just forget it. I understand everything now. I am the Element of Loyalty Luna, I love very much and will never turn my heart away from you but seeing the true reasons you acted like this to Rarity I can only see you are afraid that I and Rarity will somehow or magically fall in Love to be forever together.” Rainbow wipes something out of her eye. “That is never going to happen Luna. I have you. Rarity has Spike.” Time for the ultimate words. “Or Rarity will have Spike and you will have no one becoming a reflection of me.”

Still hard as rock. “I know what you’re aiming at my dear Rainbow Dash but please think about the next time you and Rarity spend time together.”

Rainbow shakes her head. “Luna I can overlook your insecurity but given the fact you’re an Immortal and a Princess, two words describe will perfectly describe you that obviously will prevent me from overlooking your insecurity. Stupid weakling.”

With that Rainbow walks away to be alone.
“I know tomorrow will lift my spirits.”

Luna on the other hoof.
“I may be weak but I’m not stupid.”

Twilight will just plainly ask.
“Octavia how in the world did your father get the nickname Octy if his name is Allegro Note?”

“Oh if I remember right Twilight I think the reason he got that nickname uhh what was it again.” Octavia taps her head a few times to persuade her mind to remember. “Ahhh! I remember, he got that nickname because he sold his first eight violins in less than one hour prompting his clients and friends to call him Octy. I also thought he was called Octy because he was a crazy extreme stallion when he was younger and was called Crazy 8 the Daredevil.” Octavia laughed like she’s hearing her father’s over the top adventures for the first time.

“I never knew that Octavia, I thought they called him that because he was really good at whist and won eight games in a row.” Deep down Harmonic Breeze feels shame for not knowing this about her husband whom she broke.

“Well now you know mother.” A warm voice to touch the old mare without the presence of scorn to harm the old mare and harm her thawing heart.

After some time the lunch came to an end and Octavia hugged her mother pointing to the path that says this little get together is ending soon. As normal if normal can be colored on this mother and daughter, Octavia keeps her guilty pleasure of saying good bye to mother tied down knowing if she embraces it then this attempt to reconnect has no absolute purpose and will lead back to scorn along with murdering the forgiveness she gave to Harmonic Breeze.
Harmonic Breeze knows her place in this departure to give affection to Octavia is a tiny ping on the unseen armor Octavia has. She knows what she desires is still selfish given how the healing process is in ongoing process, yes, Harmonic Breeze wants to hug her daughter but she has to hold herself back. It’s sad or not so sad nevertheless, healing takes time just like a normal wound on the body. “Good bye my daughter.” Harmonic Breeze pats Octavia’s shoulder and Twilight Sparkle teleports her away.

“Well with this done I can finally ask Octavia if she will come with me to the boutique so I can unite Gold Sky with her along introducing Gilda to her new mother.” Rarity has the confidence to say Gilda in her thoughts knowing Twilight will have no way to pinpoint this thought and connect it to Gold Sky providing Twilight a possibility to harm him.

Haplessly Octavia has other plans in mind. “Thank you mother, I hope I can hug you the next time I see you.” The grayish purple eyes secretly look upon both Unicorn mares. “A little outing will do us good.”

Just as Rarity takes her step forward to ask Octavia her life changing question, the gray mare beats her to the punch. “Twilight, Rarity will like to have some fun with me in the Canterlot business district?”

“Octa…” Rarity is gravely cut off by a certain adorable Unicorn who to make matters worse has an arm over her shoulders.

“Why of course Octavia, me and Rarity will like to join you, right Rarity?” A smile concealing a smug grin beams onto Rarity.

Rarity so wants to unleash her retribution right now and that’s only for the physical contact occurring right now. “For Octavia’s sake.”
“Yes Octavia, I’ll be more than happy to join you and, and Twilight Sparkle in the fun.”

Octavia giggled happily. “Perfect let’s all have fun!”

“So help me Lauren.” Rarity smiles like she has nothing to lose.

Twilight with both mares in her arms teleports to the business district. *Poof* Little did anybody or anypony know there’s a festival happening, a festival celebrating the birth of Canterlot. “Oh my I completely forgot there’s a festival happening today.” Twilight admitted to Rarity and Octavia.

Rarity groans. “I hate to the fact I know what all of this is going to lead.”

“Look a photo booth!” Octavia drags the two Unicorns in with her.

“I knew it!” Rarity wishes she wasn’t right. So all three are in shifting about in the bench to take the perfect pictures and while Octavia bends down to put a bit in the slot, Rarity loses her false smile and sticks her tongue out at Twilight while Twilight sticks her tongue out too in retaliation then both revert back to their false smiles when Octavia got back up.
*Bright flash* A perfect picture showing three happy mares.

*Bright flash* Octavia crossed her eyes, Rarity makes a wacky face, and Twilight sticks her tongue out like a rock star. “Rock and Roll!” The lavender Unicorn yells.

*Bright flash* A very serious family portrait.

*Bright flash* Three heads touching one another and each one has a smile on the lips. Oh and good thing Octavia is in the middle.

All and done.
“Oh you guys look at us! We look so cool together, hey Twilight your bangs are sort of messed up.” Octavia compared & contrast living Twilight’s bangs and photo Twilight’s bangs. “Here Twilight let me fix them.” Octavia with her hoof fixes Twilight’s tricolor bangs. “There!” Another compare & contrast. “Wunderbar!” Octavia allows Twilight’s magic to levitate the photo. “So what do you think Twilight?”

“WOW! Rarity and I look like a wonderful couple in the third photo! I want these photos!!” Only Rarity can notice some drool developing. “I love them Octavia, hey can I have the photos!”

Rarity can only imagine why Twilight wants the photos. “Uh Twilight.” Rarity is restraining her voice to prevent anger from being in it. “I think Octavia will like to have those photos as a keepsake.”

“No, no Rarity she can have them. I have another photo strip right here.” Pays to find the photo booth that prints out two photo strips.

“Hohohoho, thank you Octavia!” Twilight hugged the gray mare with 0.00001 percent of her physical output.

“Oh please Twilight I beg you not to use Octavia in any way to your benefit, please Twilight keep her out of our conflict.” Rarity begs knowing the telepathic link is still online.

“I hate to admit it Rarity but you’re right.” Twilight telepathically responds.

The three mares continue having fun and again Rarity gives Twilight a serious glance while Twilight blows Rarity a kiss.

***
In the Griffon Republic.
“Oliver, can your son fly yet?” Gold Sky asks, then. “Valerie, can you son fly yet?” He asks her too.

The mother and father lower their peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, both in fact haven’t been paying to their son’s flying ability mainly and their son hasn’t made any notion that he’s ready to fly or probably knows how to fly. “Well I don’t know Gold Sky. Oliver, do you know if Jonathan is ready to fly?” Valerie asks.

“I really don’t know my love.” Oliver looks around to find his son. “Hey Gold Sky, do you know where Jonathan wait a minute do you think if he’s ready to fly?”

“Why will you ask him that Oliver?” Valerie asks with a tilt of her head.

“Well Gold Sky raised Gilda yes, so probably he should know when a griffon is ready to fly. So Gold Sky do you think if Jonathan is ready to fly?”

“Heh I haven’t thought of that.” Valerie concedes. “Gold Sky, if you don’t mind me asking did you teach Gilda how to fly and if you did was it through a step by step process or you just took her to a high cloud and pushed her off so instinct can kick in. Like my mother did to me.”

Where can Gold Sky start? “I didn’t do the push off the cloud method that’s for sure. I did the step by step method starting by first letting her ride on my back so she can feel the joy of flying and the wind flowing around. I remember Gilda standing on all fours flapping her wings enjoying the wind going through her feathers, after that I will have her build up her wing muscles by doing a lot of exercise. Hehehe I remember she will tire herself so much she will go inside, fall asleep on my bed knowing I will come and cover her with my wing. She was too tired to listen to my heartbeat. Next I will encourage her to hover off of my back while in the air, of course knowing I’m close by she will hover in place while I will give her some pushes prompting her to move left, right, up and down. Finally for the last step we both sat on the highest cloud and she jumped off, that is after I gave her a kiss on her forehead for good luck.” Gold Sky pauses to remember something else he shown Octavia and Mother. “She went into free fall; I of course flew down to save her but she told me not to and on her own she flew. She flew laughing with joy seeing how she can enjoy something whenever she wants and to help me feel her joy in her incredible feat she flew into me and hugged me tight.”

Truth be told.

Celestia believes the four dreams Gold Sky showed to Octavia before he died are lies while Octavia reshaped them to her own dreams replacing Tavi the daughter with her desires for a son.

However, two are those dreams are just dreams while the other two are real but of course reshaped. Little Tavi is Gilda sleeping under Gold Sky’s wing and teaching Tavi to fly really happened but with Gilda, basically Gold Sky in his own way told Octavia he is a father of a daughter. He didn’t lie as Celestia thinks; he just showed Octavia what matters to him and how he wished to incorporate Octavia in them.

“I can imagine the hug Gilda gave you Gold Sky I bet it’s like Jonathan tackling you with a hug every time he sees.” Valerie compliments before succumbing to soft laughter.

“You can say that again Valerie. Ahem, anyway…” Gold Sky stops so all attention can be directed to somebody coming.

“Gold Sky, did you ask them to come outside?” Jonathan hopped on Gold Sky’s head. “Did you ask them?”

“OH! Almost forgot, Oliver, Valerie. Jonathan and I want you two to please come outside so he can show you something.” Gold Sky flaps his wings to get the two up.

“Sure.”
Oliver & Valerie follow Gold Sky outside.
“All right Gold Sky let’s do this!” Jonathan leaped off of Gold Sky’s head and flew into the air for the first time in front of his parent’s eyes. “C’mon Gold Sky!”
The Alicorn joins Jonathan in the air putting on a show for the mother and father who are pretty much speechless. “He can fly!?” Valerie asks the oxygen.
“Jonathan can fly!?” Oliver too asks the oxygen
“HE CAN FLY!!?” Both yell.

Jonathan swooped down wow his parents with a barrel roll as he fly upwards and joined Gold Sky in a dive to earth. “Jump!” Gold Sky and Jonathan Teleport one second from ground impact.

*Poof*
Both reappear in front of the parents. “Jonathan you can fly! YOU CAN FLY, YOU CAN FLY!!” They grab their son and hug him tight.

“I-I’ve secretly been practicing and I wanted to fly with Gold Sky so both of you can see me for the first time. Ooooooh!” Jonathan feel mommy and daddy hug him too tight. “Mommy, daddy, you’re squeezing me too hard I think I can’t breathe.”

“Hehehe, this is so cute.” Gold Sky tells himself.

From above a griffon wearing bronze armor and no cape to show he is of no branch but a messenger. “General Oliver sir.” He declares in a voice of great respect not for rank but to witness the general being a loving father.

*Long sigh* Oliver closes his eyes to hear his name come after his rank, he knows why the messenger is here and he knows what he’s thinking Valerie is thinking the same too. Valerie lets go of Jonathan leaving Oliver hugging the child. “My son.” Oliver coos and opens his eyes. “I am very proud of you, truly, if words can express my joy to see you fly then know I will say them. Nevertheless, I am very proud. My son, I love you very much.” The father kisses his son’s head before letting go of him.
“Valerie, my wife.” Oliver takes Valerie into his arms. “I love you very much with all of my heart and nothing will ever take that away from me. Valerie, I love you and please don’t lose hope.”

“Why did he have to use that word.” A small irritating tingle runs down Gold Sky’s spine to hear that word.

The wife kisses her husband before letting go.

Oliver regained his composure and turns to the messenger. “Yes, what is it you want to tell me.”

“It’s almost time for the briefing sir.”

“All right let’s go.” Before flying off Oliver gives his family and Gold Sky one last look.

Valerie frowns and lets out a long breath telling Gold Sky she is saddened by her husband going to this meeting that is involved with the conquest that will soon be launched. The wife is afraid for her husband. She is afraid for Oliver; he just fought in one war, now he is entrusted with thousands or maybe two million lives and they follow every word his mouth ushers. On top of that he will feel responsible if any of his troops perish or get wounded and there’s the female soldiers to take into account too if Oliver listens to instinct. BUT. On top of those apparent attributes that could be considered flaws there is one…thing...his scars. They have yet to heal and an open scar is a random arrow looking for flesh to pierce though it will be his flesh.

Gold Sky comes by Valerie and gently places a hoof on her shoulder in an attempt to comfort the saddened griffon. He’s curious about Oliver’s sudden transition from joy to silent along with Valerie too, he could use his telepathy to find out why but he will not breach the privacy of someone’s mind just satisfy his little curiosity, after all if curiosity killed the cat then he does not want it to kill him. Ironically, it’s quite funny to him if a cat kills him. Especially if it’s little white kitty Rainbow Dash sometimes runs into.

“Valerie, is there something wrong?”

The griffon places her hand on Gold Sky’s hoof patting it a few times to acknowledge his kind gesture. “Gold Sky, thank you for asking.” To keep her sadness contained along with hiding it from Jonathan. Val, changes the subject to hear a bit about Gold Sky and Gilda. “Gold Sky, tell me. When Gilda tired herself out why did she go to your bed instead of her own?”

Gold Sky removed his hoof from Val’s shoulder and plopped down on the ground. “Gilda loves being with me, not a minute will go by in which we’ll not be more than a yard away from each other. I mean really, I had to install a lock on the bathroom door so I can enjoy my showers and baths in peace or she come in making a big splash but more importantly I wanted my privacy. Hmmm, after I mistakenly spared Mao’s life I started to hear cries so I follow the cries praying I’m not late in case an infant is dying, instead, I find Gilda just minutes after she hatched on the floor. Something came over me and for no reason I take her into my arms to sooth her only to realize Love is taking me over and I begin loving Gilda with all of my heart. She feels me.” Gold Sky smiles. “She looks at me with her golden eyes and reaches up to touch me.”

Valerie being a mother feels what Gold Sky is feeling. “So why did you name her Gilda?”

Gold Sky shrugs. “I really don’t know Valerie, I just named her Gilda, that name just popped up in my mind so I named her Gilda. Oh my dearest Gilda, my daughter, my flesh and blood, my heart living outside my body. I had to home school her seeing going to school will require her being away from me. Literary, I had sit in the back of the class all day so she can see I’m here because every five seconds she’ll turn around to see I’m there. Heck, I couldn’t go to bathroom all that day. Ha!” Gold Sky pauses to laugh. “Any who, Gilda loves me and she wants to always feel my love so that’s way she got on my bed to fall asleep, she knew I will cover her with my wing and keep her close.”

Valerie leans over giving the Alicorn an affirmative nudge on the shoulder. “I still amazed how you a pony and Gilda a griffon can be father and daughter.”

“Is there something wrong with that Valerie?” The Alicorn spoke in a speak softly but carry a big stick tone.

Valerie caught the significance of her question. “No, no, no, no, Gold Sky, there’s nothing with that, I’m sorry if I accidently offended. I-I-I, uhhhh…uhhhhhh…uhhhhh, you’re a loving father and if you’re her father how come her mother didn’t stay with you after she mated with you.” Out of desperation Valerie says something illogical and really out of logic place.

Gold Sky scoffs. “I did not mate with a griffon Valerie! I did not mate with a griffon, seriously! I was two hundred and three years old when I had…you know, for the first time and after I got married! And I did not mate with a griffon! I adopted Gilda! Now great first Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and now you to ask me that!”

From out of nowhere. “Mommy, when he said you know for the first time and after I got married, did he mean sex?” Jonathan.

Both Valerie and Gold Sky are practically speechless like Rarity and Rainbow Dash when Twilight accused Cadance before the wedding.
Gold Sky might as well answer Jonathan’s question. “To put it bluntly Jonathan, yes. I didn’t have sex until I was two hundred and three years and married and no, I did not mate with a griffon. Are you satisfied now?”

“Gold Sky!” Valerie snaps. “How can you be so graphic like that! He’s just a little boy and he doesn’t need to hear such things! I mean really I bet you weren’t so blunt with Gilda when she uhm asked you where babies come from.”

Actually. “I told her, mom and dad have sex and then baby comes after a few months.” Gold Sky was sure as shoot blunt back then.

“Dang, never mind I guess. You’re so weird sometimes Gold Sky.” Valerie then turns to her son. “Jonathan, now you know where babies come from and please don’t ask those kinds of questions when Gold Sky is around all right.”

“Yes mommy.” Jonathan hops back up on Gold Sky’s back.

“Say Jonathan how did you know what Gold Sky meant?” Valerie asks.

The young griffon shrugs and zips his mouth, telling them he has a knack finding meanings in cloaked words. “Hey Gold Sky can I grab your ears again?”

“Sure go ahead Jonathan, hehehehe it feels funny.” Gold Sky’s other ear twitches about. “It tickles hahahaha!” He falls on his belly laughing the yahoos out of his system. “Stop it; you’re going to make me pee! Hahaha!” His bladder really wants to empty itself. “Stop it hahahaha!”

“Here I got you.” Valerie took Jonathan. “Oooh too late…well good thing we’re outside.”

“Sorry about that Valerie.” Gold Sky blushes with shame. “I think it’s time for me to go home.”

“Awww do you have too Gold Sky?” Jonathan got back on Gold Sky’s head.

“Don’t be so glum Jonathan, you know what to do if you want to see me again and your mother looks like she can use some quality time with you, so give me my hug before I teleport away.” Gold Sky receives his hug. “Valerie, if you ever wish to talk about something just tell me alright.”

“Thank you Gold Sky and please give Gilda my regards.” She too gives him a quick hug and for good measure takes Jonathan off of his back. “Bye Gold Sky.”

“Good bye, Valerie. Good bye, Jonathan. Jump!” *Poof*

“Haah! That’s cool right mommy!”
“Yes it’s cool my son, it’s really cool.” However, Valerie’s voice is drawl and disconnected from Jonathan’s joy. “Come inside my son for some yummy chewy cookies.”
As Jonathan enjoys his cookies Valerie lies down on her bed thinking about her husband. “Oliver.” From her nightstand, Valerie opens up the book about the first campaign against the fascists. “The Vanguard, if he’s still alive then he is the only thing guarantying Oliver’s safety in this conquest.” *Ting* “Jonathan!”

“What mommy?”
“Do you want to see Gold Sky tomorrow?”

“YES!” The young griffon cheers.

“Okay tomorrow you call out to him.” Valerie has a plan.

“YAY, THANKS MOMMY!”

“Perfect.” Valerie sighs with hope. “Gold Sky, should know who the Vanguard is.”

“Oliver, Hajazar is a very religious providence and can be potentially dangerous along with the rumors or songs of the very existence of the Primordial under the control of Hajazar!” Vice President Martinez pointed out on a map.

Oliver scratched his head. “Singular or Plural?”

“Plural!” Kate replies.

“Primordials or not I intend to start with Hajazar for most of the Fascist soldiers came from that providence because of their accents and battle axes. And if and I mean if, yes I’m looking at you Kate, if by any chance there happens to be any Primordials then I shall take care of them myself.” Oliver pops his knuckles to display his fearlessness. “What kind of a providence worships deities while partaking in the slaughter of innocent griffons, humph, I call it a pseudo-religion. I will break their high priest, high priestess, prophet, prophetess, deacon, deaconess, master, hermit, lord, shaman, whoever, whatever is the head of their religion, I won’t kill him slash her I will break them and if their whatever it’s called head of religion is broken then the whole providence is broken once and for all. Keeping them away from the Republic forever.” Oliver finds some symbolism he can use. “I basically castrate them taking the fight out of them.”

President Madison. “If that is where you wish to start with Oliver then it’s time I tell you the progress. Construction for four massive zeppelin landing craft is completed, all of them are fully outfitted with charges and Hellenes fire.”

“Four!” Oliver gasps with shock. “Y-you had four massive zeppelin landing craft constructed!?”

“Yes, besides we need four zeppelins to hold the number troops we have have.” Ronald slid official papers to Oliver. “No I don’t want any wine.” He declines the drink from the oldest member of congress.

“Incredible. We have one million two hundred thousand troops! How many veterans, oh, thank goodness none joined oh wait, hmmm just a few, dang it! Well it’s their choice then.” Oliver lowered the paper. “Imagine if we had these numbers during the war.”

“I understand Oliver, anyway, what about the female soldiers? How many of them completed the training regimen and have their capes?” Ronald asks.

“Well…out of the thousands who enlisted only one third completed the training and are combat ready.” Oliver couldn’t help but smile lightly about this bit of information.

Kate, Ronald, and the old member of Congress all looked at each other with one question floating above but Kate beats them. “Oliver, during the training regimen did you lower the standards to make it easier…” Interrupted.

“No! Sorry Madame Vice President for interrupting but I did not lower standards and do so will be promoting inequality and it’s sexist. It’s like saying I have to lower the standards for the females because they handle it when I know full well they can. If Gilda can do it then so can they.”

“And what if some of the females are mothers?” Kate asks to test Oliver.

“It doesn’t matter if they’re mothers because they will be fighting alongside fathers.” Answers Oliver.

Kate smirks for she is pleased. “Now that’s what I wanted to hear Oliver.”

The old member of congress stands up. “Father, Mother, Husband, Wife, Son, Daughter all fighting side by side.” A cup of wine rises. “I never thought I’ll see this day in my life, eh, I’m too old for this. But I’ll put it in the words our youth speak. Far out!”

“Uhhhh, none of today’s youth say that anymore.” Ronald popped the old member’s bubble.

“Neat-o then.” The old member retorted with another phrase he thinks the youth still say.

“They don’t say that either.” Kate’s turn to pop the bubble.

“Fine! Uhh…EPIC!” Last chance.

Both President and Vice President went into thought while Oliver opened his mouth. “Right on. Today’s youth still say that.”

“Yes! Up yours Kate and Ronald!” The old griffon drank another cup of wine to celebrate. “Any way two diplomats are on their way to Hajazar to deliver a treaty so Oliver does not need to resort to battle.” The old griffon convinced everyone to use an olive branch instead of using violence first.

Meanwhile Oliver looks at Hajazar on the map.
“You shall pay for what you did to me fifty seven years ago. Diplomacy will fail. ”

*Poof*
The physical manifestation of Love reappears in the boutique still happy for getting to see Oliver, Valerie, and Jonathan especially when he gets hug that’s more of a tackle but still a hug nonetheless. “I think Gilda and Sweetie Belle are still having fun and Rarity is somewhere, Lauren is back in the heavenly paradise. I guess I can take the opportunity to feel the nice fabrics she has, hehe I always wanted to do that. Now I wonder where big sister keeps them?” He goes inside Rarity’s work room searching for the many rolls of fabric. “Maybe they’re in her huge walk-in closet.” So Gold Sky opens the door and walks in. “Hey this is Rarity’s nice pink day dress, I love it when she wears this dress, huh!?” The door closes with a loud echoing thud. “Huh?” An invisible drop of water falls into a pool of dark nothingness with the ripples lapping over the misery that for some time has been suppressed by the chemicals in Lorazepam but now it’s been more than twenty four hours since the last intake of the chemicals. The misery is awakened and allowed to go into the galaxy. “No…” Gold Sky feels warm breath stroking the back of his ears. “Please.” Something touches him in down there. “Where is it!” Gold Sky runs towards the door to find his medication but ends it running into the door. “Stupid door!” Gold Sky, concentrates to remember where his Lorazepam is. “Damn it! I left it in Queen Chrysalis’s palace!” Last thing he wants is being in front of the Queen whose heart he has in possession and cannot stab it fearing he will travel more to the side of the Razor turning him into the shadow standing behind Gilda. “Not now!”

The Darkness is closing in.

“Please! I’m begging you!” Heart rate escalates to levels only tolerated in Immortals. “Please!” Hyperventilation arrives. “Don’t hurt me ah!” Gold Sky falls to the floor curling up in the fetal position trembling to the…warmth. Warmth. The warmth, the warmth that forced itself inside of him. “Rarity! Mommy! No, no, no, can’t, can’t…why me, why me, Octa, no I’m nothing to her, please oh my Princess Luna please nooooooo! Noooooo! Please, please, please…please!” The darkness has a touch he can feel so liberally in two fronts where not even his tail can stop one front from being touched even after he covers it.

Silver Spoon in her joy invited Gilda and Sweetie Belle to her house. Sweetie Belle is obviously taken aback by this sheer change in Silver Spoon, really, this bully born with a silver spoon on her flank actually has a nice side to underneath her skin. So if Sweetie Belle applies what she’s witnessing to that psychology book she’s read out of boredom she can deduce out of nurture Silver Spoon is a loving, kind filly but out of nature which is attributed to the weakness of the flesh is mean. For everyone is born defected, it’s only a matter of degree. “Wow, I bet she will defend me and my friends from Diamond Tiara and maybe Diamond Tiara will become nice through Silver Spoon!” This part of Sweetie Belle’s thought is given by Gold Sky’s loving words to be open to the thought of anyone capable of being who they are if given the right push and that is without the possibility of using telepathy. Silver Spoon’s mother and father give the Aunt and Niece a warm welcome along being awed to meet a griffon especially a griffon who is family with a pony. Adieu as one will say to anybody Gilda and Sweetie Belle said good bye to avoid being given too much hospitality not that they didn’t mind but Sweetie Belle is still second guessing Silver Spoon. It’s understandable along with disheartening.

“So Gilda what did you think of Silver Spoon?” Sweetie Belle asks.

“Well I personally think she’s really nice also she took a great liking in me, perhaps in no time she will be a great friend and daddy will be very happy for me.” Gilda beams a grin to display her emotion in the reception rained down upon by Silver Spoon.

“Wait until she meets Diamond Tiara.” The little filly thinks. “Well what do you say if we go tell dad err I mean Gold Sky about our freaky err I mean crazy experience with Silver Spoon.”

Gilda abruptly stops to the sound of that idea. “Hey…” Instead the griffon just places the filly on her back and dashes back to the Carousal Boutique.

“I hope she doesn’t do this often.” Sweetie Belle doesn’t like surprises not even if they’re being on the back of a super-fast griffon.

“DADDY!” Gilda shouts upon entering the boutique like Gold Sky smelling her scent miles away isn’t enough. “Where are you!? I want to tell you what happened today! Daddy!?”

“Huh?” Through the soft touch of the Archangel, Sweetie Belle feels something in her heart tell something is not right and she has to fight it. “Gilda, I think he’s upstairs in Rarity’s work room or in the kitchen looking for the cookies Rarity hides but he always ends up finding them.”

In Rarity’s work room Sweetie Belle twitches her ears around to see if she can hear Gold Sky but at hearing nothing she call Gilda from downstairs to come up and put those felidae ears to use, remembering how felines have extremely sharp hearing. “Gilda, see if you can hear him.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re part cat and cats have sharp hearing.”
Gilda almost growls in discontent. “I’m half lion! Not cat, okay, lion not cat, lion not cat! And if you want you can call me felidae I’m okay with that term but not cat, all right, not cat!”

“Sorry Gilda, I didn’t mean to make you mad but do you hear Gold Sky?” Sweetie Belle feels terrible for upsetting her niece along with getting reprimanded.

“I hear him!” Gilda opens up the closet door to find her father in a state of total submission. *GASP!* “He’s having a panic attack! Wait that’s it! Sweetie Belle, daddy is having a panic attack stay with him while I look for his Lorezewhateverit’scalled.” Gilda in huge desperation dashes about the boutique to find that little orange pill bottle.

“Oh my!” Sweetie Belle left alone with Gold Sky doesn’t know what to do, she never heard of someone being attacked by panic but whatever it is it has to be powerful if it can turn somepony brave like Gold Sky into a cowering child. “Gold Sky? Ar-are you okay?” Sweetie Belle stands in front of Gold Sky in order to be in front of his line of sight. “I don’t know what to do!?” The young filly lays a hoof on the trembling stallion’s head. “Gold Sky, why are you sad?” Instead of getting words she gets terrifying mumbling. “Please Gold Sky speak to me in words I can understand, please speak clearly Gold Sky.” Sweetie Belle nuzzles big brother hoping that can make Gold Sky speak clearly. “Oooh what can I do!”

“Ugh! Where the hell is the orange bottle!” Gilda quickly but ever so gently out of consideration for Rarity lifts up the mattress. “Where is it!”

Sweetie Belle nuzzles Gold Sky again while her limited idea filled mind searches for anything until. *ting* “If Gold Sky singing to me and holding me in his arms when I’m afraid works for me then it should work for him.” Sweetie Belle quietly warms up her voice to sing that song Gold Sky sings. “Ah, la, ah, uh ah, ahhhh. Okay done with my warm up. Now how does that song go, think, think, think, oh yeah! Ahem!” First Sweetie Belle lifts up Gold Sky’s arm and gets so her words can have more of a symbolic impact. “Somewhere beyond the sea, somewhere waiting for me. My lover stand on golden sands and watches the ships that go sink, sailing. Uh, somewhere beyond the sea, she’s there watching for me. If I could fly like griffons, is that right? Err on high, then straight into her arms I’d go flying I mean sailing. It’s far beyond the stars, it’s near beyond the moon. I know beyond a doubt my heart will lead me there soon…Somewhere beyond the sea…” Sweetie Belle starts from the beginning because she doesn’t remember the rest of the song.

However in the galaxy the a small light flickers in the darkness then it simmers out allowing the darkness to reconquer everything, suddenly the same little light erupts unleashing many beams to scatter darkness from the galaxy driving away the misery and bringing back the brave stallion Sweetie Belle knows full & well. “Sw-Sweetie Belle?” Gold Sky looks into little sister’s eyes.

“Huh what.” Gilda hears Gold Sky speaking clearly and makes her way to the walk-in closet.

Sweetie Belle stops singing. “Gold Sky are you okay?”
The Alicorn sighs in relief to finally figure out he’s out of the darkness and back in the light where he can live without fear for the time being. “Thank you, Sweetie Belle, thank you for pulling me out of the darkness.” Gold Sky kisses little sister’s forehead and hugs her tight. “Gilda.”

“Daddy!” The griffon rushes to her father. “Are you okay!? Because you looked like.” Gilda stops. “Daddy I’m glad you’re back.” She hugs Gold Sky and Sweetie Belle praying Gold Sky will not experience another panic attack ever again.

“My dearest daughter and my dearest sister are with me but little sister comforts me…oh I’m so lucky.” Gold Sky closes his eyes to feel love rain down upon his spirit.

In Canterlot Rarity is persuaded by the gray mare herself to make three dresses one of which is for Twilight who for the matter of fact needs her measurements taken and who else can take very precise measurements? Well not Octavia that’s for sure.

“Oh Rarity this is so sweeeeet!” Octavia swoons to the purple dress Rarity has made for her in less than twenty minutes with top notch flawlessness. “This dress matches my eyes.” The gray mare twirls in front of a mirror.

“Wonderful.” Rarity whispers under her breath while boiling with anger to place her measuring tape on Twilight’s left hind leg.

Twilight takes advantage to use this moment to infuriate Rarity to feel more than warm all over. “Yes Rarity, touch me with your ever so sexy touch, yes touch me, touch me!” Wow, what a good use of telepathy.

“Be quiet!” Rarity moves to Twilight’s side after seeing Twilight lift up her tail as if to show something sacred. “Just be quiet Twilight.”

Twilight feels Rarity’s press the tape against her side. “Any form of her touch be it professional, loving, or forced feels soooo exhilarating like that night she took over me.” Twilight is almost drooling at this point. “Oh Rarity press your hoof against me and rub me with it! Oh yes rub me in a circular motion like you did with your tongue. Make me hot!”

More sweat runs down Rarity’s brow displaying her sheer integrity to stay calm. “Be quiet Twilight!” More sweat runs down her brow when she moves to be face to face with Twilight. “You better be quiet Twilight. Remember, the only reason I’m not beating you to an inch of your life is Octavia being with us, now know your place you foul mare!”

“Touch me.” Twilight persists.

“Be Quiet!” More sweat falls to the floor.

“Touch me again Rarity.” Twilight bumps her shoulder into the side of Rarity’s head.

“Just be quiet!” Rarity moves closer to get the measures for the width of Twilight’s chest.

Twilight jerks her head forward causing her nose to come into contact with Rarity’s nose. “Kiss me my love!”

“OH SHUT UP!” Rarity screams while her glasses fly off to land on Twilight’s horn who just happens to have a smirk.
“Oh…” Rarity drops her measuring tape realizing her concentrated demeanor has been shattered by Twilight’s doing. “I think Twilight is hot, great, now I must keep my guard up along with keep my thoughts going and going.”

Octavia turns around shocked to hear this kind of language come from the white mare that is the very meaning of elegance itself. “Rarity what’s wrong?”

Oh boy, Rarity will have to either lie or making something up on the spot. “I wooo, I got upset Octavia because, because I-I messed up despite being in deep concentration.” Rarity with her ultra-powerful hips butts Twilight into another room. “Give me a minute Octavia, I’m making Twilight’s dress.” Rarity quickly mashed many fabrics together to make a dress she wanted to be terrible but being so indoctrinated with perfection her magic disobeys her mind to create horridness and instead makes a very beautiful dress. “Dang it.”

“Ooh my head, hey is that my dress Rarity!?” *Boing* Twilight with her powerful strength jumps from the hole in the wall to land in front of the dress. “Ahhhh!” With stars in her eyes Twilight rubs her cheek against the dress. “Rarity I love it!” Wonderful on the fact Twilight is being genuine truthful about her joy for the dress. “Thank you!” And hugs her.

“Help me Lauren!” Rarity masks her dismay with a sigh of relief so Octavia can buy it.

Evening creates its mark on the sky reminding Rarity what is planned while right now is something gravely important. She has to choose one. One involves her little brother bonding more with her while the other is protected Octavia from Twilight along with keeping the anger chained down to save face that is. “I wish I can take Octavia to Gold Sky right now however, I know Twilight will be telepathically watching and as an act of superiority Twilight will inform Luna and Gold Sky might be killed again. Little brother will never defend himself from Luna he will just let her stab him slowly in heart.” In this Rarity is right. Purposely if purpose is taken away then Gold Sky will fight back with the same end result. “I have to wait…if only I had telepathy!” Rarity chooses the main objective. “Octavia.” With Gold Sky’s blood in her Rarity will rather commit seppuku to let the pain drive her off this path of this hastily made decision. “Thank you, for inviting me to lunch, I never knew about your determination to reconnect with your mother and I deeply respect you but I must go right now.” The azure eyes shifted to look into the violet eyes. “Something really important came up. So good bye Octavia…”

“What came up Rarity?” Octavia interrupts.

“Octavia, Rainbow Dash has invited me to join her tomorrow to a Dj Pon 3 concert so if you had any plans for me and you then you will have to cancel and rearrange them with Twilight.” The Dire wolf is placing Octavia with the Alpha Wolf nevertheless, the Alpha wolf cannot do anything to Octavia or it faces the sister and the brother as the Razor. The Dire wolf with the little fox who for a lack of strength makes up with slyness that’s interchangeable with sadistic creativity. Besides the little fox must have done something to cover his heart. “So maybe you and Celestia can do something, oh, you can add Twilight Sparkle into the mix.” At least the Dire wolf will make sure the Alpha wolf is restrained in the ultimate way.
“With Princess Celestia, Twilight will not leave her presence therefore if Octavia does what I suggested then that gives Gold Sky one day of protection but the next day I can use Fluttershy’s cottage knowing Twilight will never go there though I don’t know how Fluttershy will react to Gilda and Discord might share in Fluttershy’s discomfort. Still, it’s a chance that something may happen but it needs to be done.”

Twilight angered for these suggestions telepathically connects to Rarity’s mind. “What’s to keep me from going after Gold Sky! Huh, Rarity! What’s to keep me from going after him so I can get you.”

Rarity doesn’t think about the words she’ll speak telepathically. “Will you take away Sweetie Belle’s happiness Twilight Sparkle? Sweetie Belle, is very happy to see him but she is completely clueless of his death and you want to take away a child’s happiness? I understand what you’re capable of Twilight trust me I know up close and personal but I know you will not ever take away a child’s happiness. Will you?” If she can Rarity will say frak to express her anxiety.

Twilight stands by Octavia nuzzling the gray mare on head. “You may have won this round Rarity but I am really hot right now.” The Unicorn is extremely needy. “Maybe I’ll pay Applejack a visit!” It’s funny for Twilight to think Rarity may have feelings left over for Applejack. “I wonder if her tongue can work up wonders like yours!” A white spark flies out from Twilight’s horn.

Rarity rolls her eyes. “Do it. I don’t care Twilight, go and engage in what foulness you wish to do thinking I will give any of the slightest…damn. Give Applejack what she’s never gotten from me.” She gives Octavia a nice nuzzle. “Bye.” *Poof*

Octavia still waves good bye before being taken over by a sudden surge of sadness and guilt for telling a lie to Princess Celestia. “Twilight.” Octavia trusts Rarity but in this matter regarding mother, Twilight is one whom she can trust the most. For if she tells Princess Celestia what’s in her mind then the Princess will frown upon her and nothing is worse than that also if Octavia tells Rarity then the white mare will be shocked and probably, probably think differently of her.

“Great!” Twilight suppresses her needs for the time being. “Yes Octavia?”

The gray mare brushed her dress with her hoof to feel the flawlessness. “Twilight, Princess Celestia asked me if I hated my mother and I answered no because she’s my mother. Bu-But in reality I really did hate her with such a passion. I hated her for the fact she harmed my father and did not show an ounce of remorse, I hated her because she abandoned me her flesh and blood and never bothered looking for me when I disowned her. I, I just hated her! I don’t know for how long but I hated her and regretted missing her whenever she was away on her music career.”

Twilight is still needy but hearing this sudden out of the blue confession from the gray mare took by surprise and totally suppressed the needs to the bosom of the Black Rose’s roots. “Wha-wha- why are you telling me this Octavia and why would hate your own mother!?”

“I trust you the most in the matters concerning my mother Twilight and hated her but not anymore. I can thank my father for that.” *sigh* “I mean be real Twilight, would hate your mother if she harmed you, your brother, and your father. Be real just because she’s the mother it does not give her some kind of divine pass to be exempt from scorn. I hated her, yes, but in the end, now, I love her. Of course, you can assume your love for your mother is greater than my love for my mother and perhaps your assumption is right. I love my mother Twilight but I hated her once.” Octavia removes her dress. “Imagine if Gold Sky knew about my hatred for her, he sure will be shocked beyond comprehension. Anyway, Twilight please don’t tell my mother I hated her once otherwise it can break everything I’m rebuilding,”

Twilight nuzzled Octavia again. “You do know, you will need to tell her that.”

“Yes I know Twilight, and thanks.” Octavia embraces the lavender Unicorn. “Thank you, for not judging me and being a source of guidance for me. Who knows where I’ll be without you.” Then the gray mare kisses Twilight’s cheek. “I love you Twilight, I love you very much. Just like a sister.”

“Oh man.” Twilight feels some guilt for a change for being seen as a sister by the gray mare. “She feels so disconnected from everyone ever since that weakling died and finding out she’s going to be a mother all having an enormous impact on her. But with Celestia’s help she’s recovering though but also I guess she doesn’t want to feel completely alone, albeit she’s getting closer to Rarity and me. Cleve mare if I may say, connect to those who can be family or in my case see me as someone who can become new family since Rarity is her sister in law. I almost feel sorry for Octavia.” Twilight came to her conclusion. “One never wants to be alone.”

The gray mare let’s go of Twilight and smiles at her. Truly as Twilight thought, she does not want to be alone in this world, sure she has Celli but even then Octavia feels little, with Rarity Octavia feels close but nothing when it comes to mother, however, with Twilight, Octavia connects whole hearteningly with the Unicorn, by friendship on the surface, common ground on the outer inner core, and in the center of the core by the necessity of having someone who is the opposite reflection of herself. For Twilight is mare who thinks through reason by logic and not by reason by emotion. For logic is nearly unbiased while emotion is, therefore for Octavia, Twilight is a new addition to her heart thanks to Twilight’s obligation to always use reason. “Twilight? Why do you feel so warm, are you coming down with a cold?”

Twilight lightly blushed and remembers her needs. “I just remembered something I need to do Octavia and I will be really ashamed if I don’t d-d-do it.” Only Rarity can catch the true meaning of Twilight’s last two words.

Octavia shrugs with a upward of her head. “Oh well go do what you need to do Twilight, I don’t want you to feel bad if you fail.” She gives Twilight a small nudge on the shoulder. “Get a move on Twilight. I’ll be heading back to the palace and hey, maybe tomorrow we can do something fun together also ask Spike if he’ll like to join us.”

“Why?” Twilight asks in a most dreaded voice.

Octavia giggles. “Well I want to get to know that dragon Rarity is in love with that’s way.”

“Frak me.” Bitterness kicks out sympathy. “Sure I’ll be more than happy to see if he’ll come with us.”
Meanwhile. “At least Princess Celestia won’t be joining allowing me to think up something for Gold Sky if Sweetie Belle leaves him.”
Any who. “Bye Octavia.” *Poof*

Octavia will nothing but happiness inside every inch of her body trots back to the palace with dress in tow, she for one will be like Luna and show off the dress Rarity has made for her to Celli. Heh, Celestia might get jealous this time. Might.

*Poof*
“Huh?” Applejack looks up from her sixth drawing to this sudden flash of light. “Twilight?” She gets up from her desk and approaches the Unicorn. “What brings you here?”

Twilight got straight to the point as another spark flies out of her horn. “Applejack …oh hold on.” First the Unicorn sounds proof the room so no one can hear what happen inside oh and Twilight also added a scent suppressing modification too. “All right, ahem. APPLEJACK, HAVE SEX WITH ME RIGHT NOW!”

Applejack’s pupils shrink to black dots while her flesh flourishes with glee! “Wha-what!”

Twilight’s magic levitates Applejack and drops her on the bed. “You heard me Applejack now shut up and have sex with me!”

Applejack plus Chero shook their heads. “NO! A-Ah will not have sex with you Twilight! No, no, no, no! Never!”
“Oh Applejack.” Chero in the voice of a mare is pleased with the Earth pony.

*Ting* “What the frak! Applejack, what the frak did you just say.” Another surprise to take Twilight away. “Applejack, you are a frakken promiscuous mare and from out of nowhere you are turning down a chance to have some of the best sex in your life!”

For the first time ever Applejack feels ashamed to be connected to the word promiscuous, she drops her head to take in everything only to then raise it up with strength. “Yes Twilight! Ah will turn down the best sex because Ah am trying to change into a better so Ah can be with Dj Pon 3 and live happily ever after with her!”

A few seconds of silence… “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!” Twilight laughs to Applejack’s brave speech. “Well you’re stupid! Applejack you will never change trust I know your kind will never change not even in the long run for when you live off the short term satisfaction it’s nearly impossible to live off the long term you claim to be changing for.”

“How dare you Twilight! Ah am truly changing for Dj Pon 3 and if you don’t believe then fine whatever! But Ah will not have sex with you! Now leave me alone Twilight!” Applejack reaches for her hat.

Twilight jumps onto the bed. “I hate to cheat but I will get what I want Applejack and you will too!” Telepathy gags Chero and makes Applejack smile with lust.

“Oh come here Twilight.” Applejack brings Twilight down to deliver a long kiss.

Even though this can be considered downgrading to Twilight who wants Rarity’s heart she has to vent her mighty needs and who else can satisfy this then Applejack herself.

“Applejack, take me to places you want to go.” Twilight licks Applejack’s neck seductively. “Oooh yes!” She gets turned over to look up at Applejack being on top of her.

Applejack and Twilight have flesh pleasuring sex.

While Chero can only frown seeing this isn’t happening on Applejack’s will but happening on Twilight’s will.

***

In the Boutique.
*Poof* The white mare reappears eager to dance to the tune of Chopin Nocturne 20 with her little brother for all what happened today can be put to the back of her mind. “Now where is that record?” Rarity looked about her music collection. “Where is it, where is it? AH! Here it is!” She blows dust off the record. “Perfect.” Magic brings the record player allowing Rarity to place the record inside. “Now to get little brother.”
“Gold Sky where are you?” Rarity suddenly stops herself to laugh at herself. “He’s probably in my room feeling my fabrics…and eating my cookies!”
So the white mare trots upstairs expecting to find a trail of crumbs leading to her room plus some rolls of fabric on the floor too. “Gold Sky are you in here?” Rarity peeks into her room. “Oh…” The eagerness to dance with little brother is thrown out of her mind upon seeing Gilda standing by the bed stroking a sleeping Gold Sky’s head and Sweetie Belle asleep under Gold Sky’s wing. “Well, this is a sweet sight after all.” Rarity tells herself. “Gilda.” She gets Gilda’s attention. “What happened?”

The griffon carefully passes her hand over father’s left ear. “Sweetie Belle and I found him in your walk-in closet having a panic attack.”

Rarity’s ears dropped and looked at her brother with almost tear filled eyes. “Did he forget to take his Lorazepam?”

Gilda only shrugs. “I don’t know Aunt Rarity; I looked for it and couldn’t find it. So I think he left it in the Changeling kingdom. Luckily Sweetie Belle was able to calm him down by singing him the song he’ll sing to me when I was a child.”

Rarity sighs in relief. “I’m happy Sweetie Belle was able to comfort him.” Rarity in between words nuzzles Gilda’s cheek. “How do you feel though?”

Gilda stops stroking Gold Sky’s head to express how she feels witnessing her father in the middle of a panic attack. “I can’t imagine what can cause him to feel so scared and I couldn’t do anything to help him. Rarity how can he have so much fear if he’s the bravest thing I know in my entire life.”

“I-I don’t know Gilda.”

Gilda sighs. “Well what can drive him to live everyday with fear?”

“You.” Rarity mummers in loving affectionate tone.
“What?” Gilda exclaims above a whisper.

“You are what drives him to live Gilda, you are his daughter and he loves you very much. I now understand why he chose to never have children with Octavia. He failed you and if he failed you then what’s to stop him from failing again. He wants to make everything up to you truly he does Gilda but…” Something to say or to cover for the true fact of the panic attacks. “He has to deal with death first and death has an unknown impact on him.”

“Yes.” Gilda quickly nods. “I’m glad I didn’t see him die because if I did then I know we’ll never be together again.”

Rarity kisses Sweetie Belle and Gold Sky good night then leads Gilda to the guest room for some shut eye. “Good night Gilda…oh!”

“What Aunt Rarity?” Gilda stops grooming herself .

Rarity couldn’t help but smile. “Will you like to meet Rainbow Dash?”

“YES!” Gilda shouts for joy.
