Swiffer wakes up with a yawn and smacks her lips. She still feels Blueblood and Tania snuggling in her stomach. ‘That sleeping spell worked like a charm.’ She thinks before giggling to herself. ‘Magic joke!’ She giggles for a little while, before calming herself down. ‘Alright, that spell oughta be wearing off any minute now. Those two were so tasty too. Mmm, can’t wait to taste them again on the return trip.’ She thinks pleasantly to herself.

Tania was the first to wake up, having a bit of a migraine for some odd reason. She rubbed her head a little before she noticed that she was not in bed anymore, now in someone’s stomach. ‘Oh crap! Were we snatched while we were asleep!?’ She was quick to say as she tried to wake Blueblood up, trying to stay as quiet as she could. “Blueblood. Blueblood wake up!” She whisper shouted, starting to freak out a little as she was quick to assume it was one of the ponies who caught her singing and wanted to keep her, taking Blueblood as a little bonus.

Blueblood stays asleep, mumbling to himself and rolling over. A giggle echoed through the stomach. “Don’t worry Tania, it’s okay, I’m here. It’s Swiffer.” The mare says. “We’re still in our suite in the castle, you two were asleep when I got back so I just cast a sleep spell so you wouldn’t wake up when I ate you.” Swiffer says with a giggle.

Tania really wasn’t amused with Swiffer’s idea of a midnight snack. “Seriously Swiffer, we already spent enough time in one stomach, and I had to do that cause I passed out from some kind of magic exhaustion thingy. Not to mention rude since you just swallowed us without letting us know. I almost had a freak out cause I thought we were snatched!” It seemed obvious that she woke up on the wrong part of the stomach… which was everywhere.

“I’m sorry, I just couldn’t help myself. You two were right there, and my sister got a taste of you guys. I had to have a taste.” Swiffer apologizes. “I wasn’t trying to spook you or anything.”

“Swiffer, you acting as if you’ve never tasted the both of us before. How many times have you done that already this month?” Tania said, thinking that Swiffer was just making another reason to eat the two.

Swiffer sighs. “I know, it’s just that you two looked so cute. So cute that I could, and did eat you. I’m sorry, and I know I should’ve warned you, or asked first.” She says sadly. “Go pick up Blueblood, he’s still going to be asleep, but he’ll wake up soon.”

Tania let in a small breath, trying to calm herself down before she said or did anything that she might regret. “It's okay, but please warn us next time. For all we know, we could've assumed it was you, but was really a snatcher.” She accepted her apology, but felt a little hurt that Swiffer would do that behind their backs.

“I don’t think so, snatchers would’ve had to deal with Princess Twilight and her student Starlight Glimmer. They tend to stay on the roads, looking for any tinies wandering the streets at night.” Swiffer replies. “I’ll make sure to give you guys warning from now on.”

“Still, you never know.” She said, knowing that anything could happen and no one would know it.

“Well, what’s done is done. Go pick up Blueblood and I’ll let you both out.” Swiffer says.

“Alright, sheesh.” She mumbled as she picked up the sleeping stallion, now only waiting for the mare to cough them out.

Swiffer coughs the two up and lets them out in the bathroom so they can clean up, bringing over tiny towels and getting their tiny tubs ready as well. Blueblood stirs, waking up with a yawn, before being surprised to find himself in Tania’s arms. “Um, what happened, and why do we smell like stomach juice?”

“Ask our other roommate.” She simply said, starting to take her shirt off and showing a white bra she was wearing, followed by taking her pants off and showing her matching panties.

“Huh?” He asks, puzzled, before turning to Swiffer. “What does she mean?”

“I kind of ate you two while you were sleeping. Tania woke up first, and had a bit of a freakout.” Swiffer summarizes.

“More upset cause you had your mind on just eating us then being polite to ask us first. I already woke up in one stomach yesterday, I don't want to make it an everyday thing.” She clarified, making sure to add bubbles to her tub before she went in and completely stripped herself of her clothes, leaving them on the side. Once she went in the hot water, she let out a small sigh of relaxation.

Swiffer sighs. “I did say I was sorry, and I’m not going to make it an everyday thing, and I promise I’m not going to eat you anymore unless you are fine with it.” She replies. Blueblood on the other hand simply starts filling his tub with water and soap just like Tania had.

Tania paid little to no attention as she sunk a little in the tub, wanting almost her entire body in the warm water. If anything was to bring her in a good mood again, it was a warm bath… or some close cuddling.

Blueblood gets into his own tub and relaxes, his head resting on one of the sides. Swiffer stands there for a moment, before sighing again and filling her own tub, getting ready to take her own bath. When the tub is full she gets in, resting her head by Blueblood and Tania in case they want to talk.

“So… going to visit your sister again? Or perhaps one of your friends you said you were gonna meet here.” Tania decided to ask, resting her head on the side as if it was like some tiny dangling fruit off of a bubbly drink.

“Hmm, one or the other, possibly both.” Swiffer replies, she then looks at the two. “What are you two going to be up to?” She asks curiously.

“We’re planning on seeing a secret village that Pinkie is hiding. Since Twilight is a good friend of hers, me Blueblood and the others can see it for ourselves.” Tania explained, sounding a little excited to see her first secret village.

Swiffer giggles. “Ah, the village hidden by Pinkie Pie. I’d almost like to come with. I’ve been itching to see it too.” She says. “But I promised some friends of mine I’d be visiting them.”

“Oh, okay then. I'll let you know about the whole thing afterwards.” She notified her, not wanted to leave her Bestie behind on the stuff.

“I’ll hold you to it.” Swiffer says. “For now though, it’s time to sit, relax, and soak.” She says with a sigh.

“Agreed.” She mumbled, almost disappearing into the soap bubbles as she could honestly stay there forever if the water didn't get cold.

-

The group, Blueblood, Lindsey, Stacy, Tania, and Tyler are gathered together, heading out of the castle. Lindsey of course being the one walking, the group of tinies staying in between her assets again, as they head to Sugarcube Corner to talk to Pinkie Pie about visiting the village. “Hmm, guess you guys will be doing the exploration of the village. I’m obviously too big.” Lindsey remarks.

“Well, we don’t know if the village is out in the open or not. You could always just watch from a distance… but that really isn’t better, is it?” Tania tried to be optimistic for Lindsey. “And if Pinkie is as odd and random as ponies say she is, who’s to say she doesn’t have something to make you join in?”

“Hmm, maybe.” Lindsey replies as she gets closer to Sugarcube Corner. “Well guys, we’ll be finding out in a bit.” She says as she opens the door and heads in. “Pinkie Pie. We’re here to see the village.”

Pinkie Pie hops out in her typical manner. “Twilight told me you guys wanted to visit the village! Um, you might want to give me those four first.” She says with a giggle. Lindsey looks at the pink pony confused, but pulls out the group anyway. Pinkie Pie hops up close and looks at the group in Lindsey’s hand. “You guys ready to see the village?!” She asks excitedly.

“Yeah!” Tania simply answered for everyone, even though everyone was more confused than excited, wondering why the four of them had to go first. ‘Maybe we need to go in first to warn everyone about Lindsey so they won’t freak out.’ Tania was first to assume.

“Alright then. Get ready, because you’re on your way!” Pinkie says excitedly, before licking up the group in Lindsey’s hand and gulping them down. Pinkie Pie giggles a bit. “Now it’s your turn Lindsey.” She says advancing on the woman.

“Um, Pinkie, what’s going on?” Lindsey asks, starting to get a little fearful, and backing up.

“Silly, you’re going to go visit the village!” The pink pony replies, licking her lips, before pouncing, and swallowing Lindsey down with ease. Anypony or tiny just coming into Sugarcube Corner wouldn’t even know that she’d just eaten someone taller than the princesses. The group lands in her stomach, first being Tyler, then Blueblood atop of him, followed by Tania and Stacy. When they looked around, they find that it is huge, and in the middle of it is an actual tiny city, complete with cars, electricity, even suburbs and farmland. The only difference this city has in fact is that it is inside a pony’s stomach. Blueblood and Tyler gape at the site, with the latter keeping his Doctor Who jokes to himself.

“A-are we still in Pinkie’s stomach? She could've at least given us a heads up.” Stacy was the first to speak, looking from her spot atop of the pile of tinies and one shrunken pony.

Lindsey slides in landing on top of Stacy, her breasts pressed against the crippled girls head. “Um, apparently she can eat anyone, and I seem to be tiny now.” She says stunned by what’s happening, and what she’s seeing. “Sh-she has an entire city in her stomach?!”

“Sheems to beh dat way Enshtine.” Stacy tried to say while still being squished by Lindsey’s breasts.

“M-maybe staying as a f-falling pile won't help us grasp to what's going on.” Tania suggested as the weight of two people on her back was starting to hurt.

Lindsey gets up and pulls Stacy off with her, allowing Tania to get off of Blueblood and Tyler. “Oh, you’ll probably need this Stacy!” They hear Pinkie Pie say, her voice echoing around them. They then hear the gluck of Pinkie Pie swallowing and landing gently next to them is Stacy’s wheelchair.

‘Why did that land gently while we pretty much just fell into this place?’ Stacy only asked in her head as she knew she wouldn’t get a straight answer. “Lindsey? Do you mind if you..?” She looked up at the girl as she wasn’t sure if she would help her back on the wheelchair.

“Oh, yeah sure.” Lindsey says, helping Stacy onto her wheelchair. Tyler gets up and helps as well. “Man, you’re a lot heavier when we’re about the same size.” Lindsey says with a giggle.

“Sush up.” Stacy simply says as she buckles herself onto her wheelchair and tightened the strap to keep her from slipping off. “So the secret village is in Pinkie’s gut. We should’ve seen this coming.”

Lindsey giggles. “Why do I have a feeling that Twilight knew and was keeping it secret?” She says with a laugh, sticking her tongue at Stacy for a moment.

Tyler looks at the city, absolutely puzzled. “It’s got electricity, there’s cars. It’s like she just decided to go to our Earth one day and swallow an entire city, no an entire county!” He says trying to figure out how this whole thing was possible.

“We should probably not try to figure it out. It’s not like knowing how this happened is going to help.” Tania spoke up, helping Blueblood to his hooves as she was also amazed by how this was all possible.

Blueblood looks around amazed as well. Then Pinkie’s voice echoes around them, as it giggles. “What’re you guys standing around for? Aren’t you gonna go see it?” She asks with fake exasperation.

‘How did she know we were just standing around?’ Tania thought, wondering if Pinkie was some kind of god that somehow looked after all of the tinies in this village.

Lindsey looks around, and sees a bus stop nearby, on the edge of where the stomach lining they’re on turns to soil. “How does she eat with this here? Wouldn’t that destroy the city?” She asks.

“Like this!” Pinkie says with a giggle, swallowing a whole cupcake. It lands near the group with a thud, but it stays upright and on the stomach lining, which starts moving it along, never touching the dirt as if there were a barrier keeping it from doing any damage to the city. Then they notice something else about the cupcake. It’s absolutely vast, much bigger than it would be outside of Pinkie’s stomach, in fact it dwarfed the city even.

Tyler looks between the two. “Well I guess that’s one problem solved. We’re microscopic now. That’s why the city can fit this easily.” He comments sounding more fearful than usual.

“How is that even possible?” Stacy just had to ask. “Does Pinkie have some magic in her stomach like what’s on the tinies now?” She tried to guess, thinking that she did, and the increase in magic also made them smaller. ‘Is this permanent?’ She thought, a little scared that she would probably have to stay in the same area so she wouldn’t get squished.

Pinkie’s giggles echo some more. “You know, Twilight has been trying to figure out how I can do a whole bunch of things since I met her. She finally came up with an answer a while ago. It’s Pinkie Pie.” She says with a giggle. “It’s funny, I’m so difficult to figure out, even I don’t know the answer! Oh, and don’t worry, when I cough you back up, you’ll all be back to normal. Well, unless you want to stay. I think there’s some places for sale in there. Oh, and there were a few leftover Mes from the Mirror Pool, they’re living in there too. Except for one. I saw her at Manehatten a while ago, but she got away.” She says, as if this is all completely normal.

Stacy decided to follow the book-horse’s reason and just let it slide and not think too much about it, already getting a headache by just hearing the pink pony’s voice. “Fine, I’ll accept that reason.” She mumbled, rubbing her head a little.

A bus pulls up to the bus stop. Lindsey looks over. “I guess we should get on, after all it looks like it’s going to be a long walk to the city.” She says. “Well, let’s go.”

Tyler walks over to the back of Stacy’s wheelchair. “Want my help?” He asks.

“Oh, thank you.” She smiled a little as she was already being helped onto the bus, Tania and Blueblood being the last to go inside.

When the group sits on the bus, a passenger in the first seat turns around and looks at the group. The passenger stands up on her hooves, using her forehooves to stand against the seat. She giggles. “Welcome to the City of Pinkie Pie. I’m your tour guide, Pinkie Pie. Are you guys ready for a fun time taking the tour?” She asks excitedly.

“Uhh, sure?” Tania answered, still a little lost and confused on how this is even possible.

The Pinkie tour guide giggles. “Well, Pinkie Pie did tell you about the Mirror Pool didn’t she?” She asks with her excited smile still on her face.

“Y-yeah, but we don’t even know what this mirror pool is.” She admitted, the others nodding as well, agreeing that they didn’t have any knowledge of this pool.

The Pinkie giggles, tapping a hoof on the seat, which causes the driver to start the bus moving toward the city. “Alright, I’ll tell you all about it as we head to the city. So, Pinkie Pie used the mirror pool a few months ago to-”

-

“-And that’s how the rest of the Pinkie clones came to live in the city.” The Pinkie guide finishes as the bus pulls up to a stop. “Oh, we’re here. Come on, it’s time to take a tour of the city. Well, the fun parts anyway!” She says excitedly hopping off the bus merrily.

“That was honestly the weirdest story ever, but this is Equestria, so anything is possible.” Tania admitted, being the first to get off the bus followed by Blueblood, with Tyler and Lindsey helping Stacy get off last.

“It’s okay. We Pinkie Pies are always weird. Even we can’t figure ourselves out. Wanna see me do the hoof thing again?” She asks with a giggle. “Or how about the one where I make my face look like a version of me from a different universe?”

“Uhh, no, we’re good for now.” Stacy was quick to answer once she was able to move on her own.

Tour Pinkie giggles. “Well alright, let’s start the tour. So, as you’ve already seen, Pinkie Pie City is a microscopic version of a tiny city that is fully functional. Every Pinkie and Tiny living here are reduced to microscopic size to fit within my bigger self. The city is also protected by the mysterious magic or whatever that makes us Pinkie Pies what we are, so it doesn’t get smashed by the food she eats or flooded by what she drinks. There are plenty of places to go and things to do in Pinkie Pie City. So where do you want to go first, a theater, restaurant, shopping, something else?”

Tania only looked at the others for any suggestion before she choose one for themselves.

Tyler looks between them. “Movie anyone?” He asks.

Lindsey giggles. “It’s probably just the movies the ponies have Tyler.”

“Oh. Oh well, we could use it to learn more about them I guess.” Tyler says. “Or we could see if they have any of our movies.”

“I think anything is possible in this secret city.” Stacy added, knowing that they shouldn’t be surprise if they did have human movies. “Heck, this place had electricity, I bet this place also has a movie studio, even an animation studio with voice actors and everything. Just expect the unexpected.”

“Alright, follow me. I’ll take you to the theater then.” Tour Pinkie says before hopping off, down the sidewalk.

The group follows her a little ways until she reaches the theater, showing all sorts of movies, from one’s expected at a pony theater, to movies that had only just been coming out when a few had vanished.

“Told you.” Stacy smirked as she spotted one that was very odd to see on the theater posters. “My Little Pony: The Movie? What the heck!?” She saw that four of the six ponies on there she noticed, not being familiar with a white unicorn and a yellow pegasus. “Okay, I did not expect that.”

“Uhm…” Tour Pinkie says, with sweat dripping off her head, she rushes over to the poster, pulls it down and begrudgingly eats it. “That one, that one is um, we’re missing the roll.” She says unconvincingly.

“I’m a little interested in seeing that.” Tania couldn’t help but admit. “Must be full of action, adventure, and probably loads of musical numbers.”

“And spoilers, so it’s off limits.” Tour Pinkie says, pulling another random poster out of nowhere. “How about this one?” She says, before looking at it. “Fifty Shades of…” She suddenly eats that one too. “Eeww. That one tastes awful. Um, how about this one?” She pulls out yet another one, this poster showing cartoon people that look a lot like a few of the ponies. “Yeah, how about this one? No spoilers here!”

“Eh, not really. It looks weird with the different colored skin.” Tania shrugged, not really feeling it as the first one. “Let’s get some tickets to the first movie.” She said, Stacy agreeing as she was curious as well.

“B-b-but, sp-spoilers.” Tour Pinkie stutters, pulling out more and more posters of different movies, ranging from Sci-Fi and Fantasy to Noire and Based on a True story films. “H-how about these?” She says nervously. “Wait, I know, how about instead of a movie, we watch this.” She pulls out of nowhere a set of Blu Ray cases, all of them displaying the same characters from the first poster. No spoilers in these, plus you’ll get to know us better.”

Tania had a feeling that this Pinkie wouldn’t let them see it. But she really wanted to… so badly. She only sighed “Fine… but it’s probably not as good as the movie.” She crossed her arms.

Tour Pinkie let’s out a sigh of relief. “Seriously, you don’t know what you just saved yourself from. The movie hasn’t happened out in Equestria yet, so you’d need to sign contracts to not tell anypony, and you’d have to get a house here until the events in the movie have happened. Trust me, if you just want to visit, you don’t want to see the movie.” She says, before looking happy again. “But, since you’re going to see the show. No need for contracts or anything, it’s all happened. Well, except for the last season.” She says before leading them inside. “You might get through one season before you decide to go look around the city some more, or go back home.”

“It’s okay, I think we can just continue with the tour.” Stacy waved dismissively, not interested in watching anything anymore.

“Oh, okay.” Tour Pinkie replies, sad that she ruined their theater experience. “So, anywhere else you want to go. We have all sorts of stores we can go to, some arcades, a mall, a lot of the restaurants you probably miss.” She suggests.

“Maybe we could just visit the park… if they have one here.” Tania suggested.

“Oh, we have several of those! Follow me.” Tour Pinkie says, hopping off again. The group follows her until they reach what is obviously the park. Sidewalk paths, rolling hills, pristine man-made lakes with some having fountains, playgrounds for children, ramadas with barbecue stands and tables for families wanting a bbq at the park, plenty of benches in well kept flower garden areas.

“Ah, this is much better.” Tania was first to sit down on the grassy hill, right before she laid down. “It feels like actual grass, it’s weird.”

“That’s because it is actual grass, silly.” Tour Pinkie says. “The entire city, and the surrounding suburbs and farmlands actually arrived from your Earth after the entire area vanished, and it arrived here, safe, sound, and being protected by whatever magic allows us Pinkies to do the random things that we do.” She explains.

“And no one here has tried to figure out how this is possible? I mean in this village, not just Twilight.” Stacy just had to ask, this being something they had to figure out whether or not this would help them in some way.

“They tried for a while, but couldn’t figure it out. It’s really hard to figure out anything with us Pinkie’s actually.” Tour Pinkie replies.

Tyler looks at Stacy. “Somehow, I don’t think we’ll ever get an answer for why everyone started to end up here.” He says.

“It still wouldn’t hurt with a hint at least.” Stacy said while rubbing her head again. “I’d like to sit down on the grass too, if that isn’t too much.”

Tour Pinkie giggles. “I think it’s because a group of people are writing stories on the internet.” She says, looking at the group with a grin.

Tyler walks over to Stacy. “Well, somehow I doubt that.” He says looking at Tour Pinkie, before looking at Stacy. “I’ll help you out.” He lends her a hand in getting to the ground.

“Thanks.” She smiled as she was helped out of the wheelchair and was now sitting on the grass with Tania.

Blueblood nuzzles up to Tania on the grass, while Tyler and Lindsey sit closer to Stacy. Tour Pinkie Pie joins them on the ground. “Do you want genuine Sugarcube Corner pastries?” She asks.

Tania blushed pink when Blueblood nuzzled close to her, starting to pet his head on instinct. As for Stacy she had to lean against one of them to keep her sitting up without using her arms as much. “Maybe a small snack wouldn’t be bad.” Tania answered for everyone once again.

“Yay!” Tour Pinkie shouted happily, before pulling out a half dozen cupcakes. “There’s one for each of us.” She says handing the cupcakes out to everyone. “I made these cupcakes especially for each of you.” She informs them cheerfully.

Tyler takes a bite of his. “Woah! It- it’s my favorite, but how?” Tyler exclaims.

“It's Pinkie, don't ask.” Stacy says as she starts to eat the icing off the treat.

Tania on the other hand tears the bottom half and puts it on top, making a cupcake sandwich.

Blueblood mimics Tania’s actions, before taking a bite. “Mmm, you’ve never met us before, how could you know our favorite desserts?”

Tour Pinkie giggles. “I have my ways.” She answers.

“Swifter probably helped her out.” Tania decided to assume, feeling that she knew about the village, so it wouldn't be a surprise if she told the party mare Tania and Blueblood’s favorite pastry flavor.

Tour Pinkie giggles. “Nnnnoope. Actually Pinkie Pie helped me, and as for how she knows, she’s a party pony, and she specializes in getting to know everypony and every tinies favorite.” She says.

“Why do I feel like we’ve all been spied on, all of a sudden?” Lindsey asks jokingly.

“Probably cause we were.” Stacy simply says as she nibbles on her cupcake. “And we haven't spotted her cause it's Pinkie we're talking about.”

Tour Pinkie giggles. “Yup, that’s right.” She says.

Lindsey laughs. “Well, I’ll just have to get back at Pinkie Pie then. She ate me, I wonder if I could do the same.” She says, not all too seriously.

Tour Pinkie giggles. “Well, she’d probably have to make sure she’s got nothing on the calendar, but I don’t think she’d mind.”

Stacy just decided to stay out of it, as did Tania who finished her cupcake already.

Tyler laughs. “Do you mean full sized or tiny swapped Pinkie Pie?” He asks.

“Well, tiny swapped of course. It’s impossible to fit a whole pony after all.” Lindsey says, giggling.

Tour Pinkie giggles some more. “I betcha’ I could fit. I could probably get myself into any one of you.” She says, apparently accepting Lindsey’s challenge.

“I think she was just joking Pinkie.” Tania told the pink mare. “It's one thing for ponies to eat us, but I'm not so sure the other way around would be better.”

“Regular ponies maybe. I’m not a regular pony though, Pinkie Pie isn’t a regular pony.” Tour Pinkie says. “So, who wants to try?”

Lindsey giggles, reaches over, and pats Blueblood. “I’ve already eaten a pony, this one in fact.”

“Not me thanks. I’m just not that kind of guy, I’d rather be eaten, than eat someone.” Tyler says.

Blueblood nuzzles up against Tania. “Me too, but I’ll only let Tania. If she ever decides to size swap.”

Tania couldn't help but blush when he said that, but that only left Stacy, who was currently distracted to see what they were talking about. “Hmmph?” Was all she said through stuffed mouth full of the rest of the cupcake.

Tour Pinkie giggles. “I’m going to try and get into one of your stomachs.” She says. “Want to eat a pony?” She says looking between Tania and Stacy. “I’m tasty!” She says, as if she were a mother attempting to convince her kids to eat vegetables.

“N-no, I'm good.” Tania was quick to move away from Pinkie.

As for Stacy, she couldn't really move away on her own, and was still eating her cupcake, unable to really answer.

Tour Pinkie licks her lips with determination and approaches Stacy. “Are you ready to eat a pony this time?” She asks.

She almost choked on her cupcake as she was able to swallow it. “Wh-what? I didn't say anything about doing this.” She was quick to say, wanting to back away, but could only go so far with two arms.

Tour Pinkie rushes at Stacy while her mouth is open, almost literally diving in. In that move, half of Tour Pinkie is inside Stacy, but doesn’t seem to be showing up at all, except for an occasional hoof shaped bulge. The rest of the mare is hanging outside of Stacy, but not for long, the mare seems to pull herself the rest of the way in, the tip of her disappearing into the girl. The only thing showing that the mare was inside the woman is a slight bulge under her shirt, and the occasional hoof print from within, amazingly no damage seems to have been done.

Tyler, Blueblood, Tania, and Lindsey stare in amazement. “Okay, I think I might want to try that.” Lindsey says, still watching the slight bulge in Stacy’s stomach. She even reaches out and presses a hand on it. “Wow!”

Stacy’s face was cherry red after that happened, getting more embarrassed when Lindsey touched her stomach bulge. “D-don't do that!” She was quick to cover her midsection as she honestly felt really weird and uncomfortable feeling the movement inside her. “H-how are ponies even used to it? It’s freaking me out! It's all weird inside…”

“Well, as the only human expert on this subject, until now I guess.” Lindsey starts. “The ponies probably like the feeling of closeness, of surrounding and protecting a loved one. They, uh, also don’t have something about the size of the typical dog in their stomachs when they do.”

“I like it in here. Feels kinda nice actually.” Tour Pinkie’s muffled voice is heard from within Stacy. “Oh! Oh! You should get on your wheelchair and go around the park! That sounds like it’d be fun!” The bulge says excitedly.

Stacy only tightened her hold on her stomach bulge, the blush never leaving her cheeks as she kept on feeling the mare move inside. “S-so I'm guessing the n-normal way to bring them out isn't g-going to work..?” She guessed, thinking that she couldn't cough out something that was as big as a medium sized dog.

“I can see why you’d be worried, but you shouldn’t be. I’m not coming out the, *ahem*, exit. I’ll come out the way I got in.” The bulge says moving around a bit. “It is really comfortable in here though.”

“Mmh…” Stacy couldn't help but cover her mouth as she made that sound, the blush forming on her cheeks again.

“I heard that. You seem to be enjoying yourself. Oh, I’ll definitely have to try that.” Lindsey says, watching the bulge as she moved in the girl.

“You like it when I move around in here?” Tour Pinkie asks in her typical innocent manner. She continues to move around. “Does that feel good too?” She asks, clearly just wanting Stacy to be happy, not trying to arouse her or anything.

Stacy kept her hand over her mouth, the blush only turning a deeper red as it was actually arousing, it being close to her nethers, it being the lowest spot where she can ‘feel’ things.

Lindsey looks to Tania. “Do you want to try now. I have to say, that looks like fun.” She comments. In the meantime the bulge continues to move, hoofprints start to appear more frequently, the mare within rubbing the girl’s stomach from the inside.

“Uhm, n-no I'm still okay. Besides, it doesn't look that fun… a-at least not when you're the same size.” She admitted, but still a little curious if she could do that with Blueblood and it didn't have to be just Pinkie.

At this point, Stacy couldn't keep sitting up on her own, now using both her arms to cover and even try and stop the movement, but that didn't stop her from letting out some shaky breaths with a blush on her face.

From within Stacy, Pinkie’s voice calls out. “Um, do you want me to come out now. Or I guess at least stop moving that much.” She asks.

“Y-yes please…” She barely made a whisper as she kept her hands over her stomach.

The bulge in Stacy’s stomach, suddenly disappears, only to reappear at her collarbone before traveling up her neck, when Pinkie Pie suddenly jumps out, landing on her rear hooves with her fore hooves up in the air. “Tada!” She exclaims.

Blueblood nuzzles up against Tania some more. “I wonder if we could do that?” He says out loud, he then blushes, showing that he had accidentally said that.

“I-I don't know, maybe? But I don't think you'll be a small bulge like Pinkie… I'd probably look more pregnant with you inside.” She couldn't help but giggle at the idea of having a dog-sized stallion in her gut.

Meanwhile Stacy seemed out of it now, feeling as if she just puked her whole lunch, which also made her feel empty inside. She felt too weak to even sit up on her own, her hands shaking a little.

Tyler pulls Stacy up into a sitting position and leans her against him. “Well, that was interesting.” He comments before looking at Stacy. “Are you feeling okay?” He asks. “Can I get you anything?”

“She’s probably feeling pretty empty, because she had me in there for a while. Her stomach had to do a bit of stretching and it’s going to take a little while for it to shrink back down.” Tour Pinkie says, before looking to Tania and Blueblood. “You two should try it, it’s really fun! Though, if you get stuck in there, it’s about a twelve hour wait to get out, and it doesn’t smell really good. Oh! Oh! If you do, you should totally light your horn up! That would look so cool!” She exclaims with a squeaky smile.

“What? N-no I don't think we meant right now.” Tania tried to avoid trying that, not sure if the same thing would happen if it wasn't Pinkie, for all she knows, he might not be safe inside her body more than she was outside with the magic.

Lindsey lets out a giggle. “I’ll try it. Come on Blueblood, visit your old room.” She says, still giggling, rubbing her stomach. “I kept it nice and tidy for you.”

Blueblood lets out an awkward chuckle. “Thanks but no thanks, only if Tania wants to.” He replies nuzzling up against Tania some more.

Tania blushed pink when Blueblood nuzzled close to her, making the girl wrap her arms around him. “I-I'm just not sure it's… safe.” She admitted. “I-I mean… I don't know what might happen if it was Blueblood, since Pinkie is… Pinkie.”

Tour Pinkie giggles. “Well, he’s got the same magic spell on him as you do, and ponies are really flexible, and squishable. Just give it a shot, you might like it, there’s literally no way to get closer than for him to be inside you. If he’s in your tummy, then he’ll literally be right next to your heart.” She says, giggling more.

She was still hesitant in trying, seeing what Stacy went through, she wasn’t sure if she could do the same. “I… I just don’t think I can do it now.”

“Well, you don’t have to. If you’re worried about the side effects though, they wear off real quick, even quicker if you go to a restaurant afterward.” Tour Pinkie replies. “All Stacy really needs to do is either wait for her tummy to shrink back down or to get something to eat. Actually, she might even want to eat me again!” She says with a giggle.

“NO!” Stacy was quick to shout as she never wanted to do that again.

“Maybe a restaurant is a good idea.” Tania decided to change the subject as she didn’t want to talk about eating ponies all day.

Tour Pinkie giggles at Stacy’s reaction. “You know you liked it! I heard you, I was right in there after all.” She says somewhat seductively, as if trying to get Stacy to eat her again, only this time of her own volition. The mare then looks over to Tania. “So, which restaurant do you want to go to. Chinese, a steak house, italian, sandwich shop, fast food?” She asks, ready to take them wherever they want to go.

Tania only shrugged as she wasn’t sure where the others wanted to go.

Lindsey giggles. “Chinese sounds good. It’ll let me give Blueblood a bed of rice to lay on.” She says teasingly.

“Hey, I’m just glad to have some of our Earth food again.” Tyler says, letting the others decide.

Blueblood just looks between all of them. “I’ve never had your food before. From what I’ve heard it’s close to ours though. I’ll let you guys choose.”

“I guess Chinese it is.” Tania shrugged as Stacy didn't answer.

“Alright, buffet or actual restaurant?” She asks Stacy, considering she is the one with the stretched stomach.

“Chinese… restaurant.” She simply said, not wanting to go overboard with a buffet.

“Alright, follow me.” Pinkie says, waiting while Tyler helps Stacy onto her wheelchair. The group then heads off with Tyler pushing Stacy as she is too weak from hunger. They make their way to the chinese place and go in.

~

The group exits the restaurant after having lunch, and they head to Tour Pinkie’s apartment to rest up and relax. “It’s been too long since I last had Chinese. That was great.” Lindsey says, relaxing on one of the couches in the apartment. Tyler sitting next to her, and Stacy in her wheelchair next to them. Blueblood and Tania both take up a recliner. Finally, the Pinkie they’re with is bouncing happily around thinking up other things they could do.

“I was honestly surprised that Stacy could use chopsticks like me.” Tania couldn't help but mention, thinking that she would be the only one. “Also, I never thought I would have some pan-fried noodles again.” She sighed as she wish she could've asked for extra for the road.

“You learn a lot of things when you're a hermit like me.” Stacy said, flicking a few chopsticks she took with her, it being one of the minuscule things she learned back on earth.

“Yet you were using it more like a spoon with that whole bowl of rice you ate.” Tania couldn't help but laugh at the memory in her head.

“It’s not her fault. She had a whole pony in her stomach, she had a lot of room to fill up after Pinkie jumped out.” Lindsey says with a giggle.

Tyler laughs. “She almost had Pinkie back in their too when she nearly mixed up her mane with chow mein.” He adds.

“Hey! It's not my fault that sack of A.D.D. didn't listen and just forced herself into me.” Stacy tried to defend herself with a blush on her cheeks.

“Hey! I’m not a sack of ADD, I’m a sack of sugar!” Tour Pinkie says with a giggle. “And I wasn’t forcing myself into you in the restaurant.” She says with a giggle.

“Still, I wouldn't have been that hungry if you didn't do that.” She crossed her arms as she turned her head away.

“Awe Stacy, it’s okay. She didn’t mean any harm, plus you did seem to enjoy her time in there.” Lindsey comments, trying to keep Stacy from getting into one of her emotional fits. “If it makes you feel better, I was trying to find an excuse to eat either Blueblood or Pinkie the whole time just to try it, because of what you seemed to be going through while Pinkie was in your stomach.”

Stacy still had a blush on her cheeks. “You're only saying that to make me feel better.” She mumbled. “It doesn't matter anyways, it already happened, and it's not like we can go back in time to stop it from happening.”

“Twilight tried that once. It didn’t work out too well. Oh, and Starlight nearly ended Equestria doing that too.” Pinkie comments. “The others could try it though, if it’ll make you feel better.” She then giggles. “I could even swallow Tyler and take him with me.”

“You know I wasn't being serious, right?” Stacy didn't even know what the mare was talking about. “Again, what happened already happened.”

Blueblood just lies against Tania. “No thanks anyway. I’d rather Tania have an empty stomach before we try.” He shivers a bit at the thought of sitting in digesting food, an experience he never liked.

“I’d rather just watch you dive into someone.” Tyler says.

“You can stay in my stomach for a while Pinkie. I’d like to try.” Lindsey says with a giggle. “Well, until it’s time for us to go, or we decide to go somewhere.”

Tania still had a pink hue on her cheeks as she started scratching Blueblood behind the ears, seeming to be comfortable and relaxed to almost fall asleep on the recliner.

‘I really don't see what's so great about eating one another.’ Stacy thought as she decided saying out loud would just start a whole debate on whether it's good or bad.

Tour Pinkie hops over to Lindsey and stands on her lap, hooves on her shoulders. “Ready set go!” She shouts before suddenly cannonballing into Lindsey’s mouth and down her throat. A bulge that swiftly disappears under her collarbone only to reappear just below her ribs. “Oh, it’s nice and comfy in here too.” Pinkie’s muffled voice is heard.

Lindsey sits there, her hands slowly touching and feeling the bulge. “Woah, that’s different!” She exclaims. “This definitely isn’t like eating tinies. I can feel everything. Oh, it feels pretty good though. Like she’s giving my stomach a massage, while my stomach is trying to give her a massage.” She says, blushing profusely as the mare shifts and moves visibly within the bulge.

Stacy only felt a cold chill up her spine when she saw the stomach bulge, hoping that she wouldn’t have to do that anytime soon. ‘Weird kinks...’ She mumbled in her head, turning away as she rested her head on her hand, in which her arm was leaning against one of the armrest of the wheelchair.

Lindsey raises her t-shirt enough to reveal the bulge. It moves and shifts, before suddenly Pinkie’s face appears, like her stomach is one of those pin impression toys. The mare starts making different faces, her muffled giggling can be heard the whole time. “Wow, I never took myself as a toy.” Lindsey says with a giggle, watching the mare’s face disappear and reappear. “Want to try after I’m done, Tania? It definitely feels interesting.” Lindsey asks.

“Interesting to you… but that’s kind of weird.” Tania had to be honest, only thinking back to those alien movies where they would burst out of a human’s stomach, the bulges being constant like Tour Pinkie and her hooves.

“Well, this whole situation with us being in Equestria is weird, but we might as well try to get used to it. Though, I don’t think we’ll have to get used to eating ponies. Except maybe you if Blueblood enjoys it.” Lindsey says with a bit of a giggle.

Lindsey stands up and stretches, tightening her abs, causing the bulge to disappear. “Woah!” Pinkie’s muffled voice is heard again. Lindsey stops stretching and the bulge reappears and she then starts walking around the apartment. “Wee!” Pinkie’s excited voice can be heard as Lindsey makes her way around the living room.

Tania blushed at the eating Blueblood part, still hesitant on eating anyone really. “I… I’ll think about it, but that doesn’t mean I’ll do it right away.” She said, still feeling uncomfortable around the idea of eating her special somepony.

“Never said it had to be right away, or that it even had to happen, that’s between you two.” Lindsey says as she stretches some more, watching the bulge appear and disappear. “This is pretty interesting feeling. I don’t look like I have a pony in my stomach, but I do. I can feel her moving, but it’s like she doesn’t weigh as much as she should.” Lindsey says, as she moves about. “Hey, Pinkie, where’s the bathroom? You should probably shower after I let you out.”

“Down the hall, first door on the right.” Comes Pinkie’s muffled reply. Lindsey follows Pinkie’s directions and heads off to the bathroom leaving them alone.

Tania still felt indecisive on the idea of eating Blueblood. Almost every day in Canterlot he used to be eaten by every staff member that spotted him. She just didn’t want to be another name on that list.

Blueblood continues to stay nuzzled up next to Tania. “I’ll leave it up to you Tania, if you want to or not. I wouldn’t mind if you ate me.” He says, glad that she wouldn’t eat him out of malice, unlike the Canterlot staff. If she can eat him anyway.

“I don’t know. Lindsey is okay with doing it, but I’m not sure if I could handle eating a dog-sized pony.” She admitted, rubbing her hands together. “And I don’t want to be like all those other ponies.”

“I don’t know if it’s possible, but we could try sometime later, maybe when you don’t have a full stomach.” Blueblood says, skeptical if he could fit, assuming it’s just Pinkie being Pinkie. “But I wouldn’t mind if it was possible, because you’re not like all those ponies who ate me. You actually care about me, love me. I only feel comfortable within my aunts because they care about me too. I would love to add you to that list.” He says.

Tania’s cheeks turned red after he said that, not really thinking on how Blueblood might feel about it, or more specifically that way. “I-I’m still a little worried on what might happen. Pinkie is different, but I don’t know about someone who’s more… sane than her.”

Pinkie’s head appears around the corner of the hallway. “Hey! I’m sane! Just a little on the odd side!” She says before disappearing again.

Lindsey comes back out, giggling a bit. “She smells of soy sauce. It’s gonna take her a while to shower that out.” She says before sitting down next to Tyler. “Oh, I feel kind of empty now.”

“Maybe we should visit a cafe or something.” Tania shrugged as she didn’t feel like going to another restaurant after they just had a meal of their own.

Lindsey giggles. “Nah, I had enough Chinese food. I’m just gonna wait for my stomach to shrink.”

“Oh, okay then.” Tania mumbled as she leaned against the recliner instead, starting to feel more tired.

Tyler lays back on the couch. “I agree, time for a nap.” He says tiredly.

Blueblood curls up more on Tania’s lap. “Mmhmm.” He hums in agreement.

Lindsey stretches and yawns a bit. “I do have to admit, I’m tired too.” She says, leaning against the couch as well, opposite of Tyler.

Tour Pinkie looks at all of them. “Well, I’m glad I got out of there. Well, I guess it’s time for a nap.” She leaps onto the couch between Tyler and Lindsey and curls up much like a dog.

Stacy, on the other hand, could only rest her arms and head on the armrest of the couch, while still sitting on her wheelchair. But it wasn’t like she didn’t like it or anything.

Bringing Blueblood closer, Tania nuzzled close to him, hugging him like a plushed animal as she began to drift to sleep.

~

Blueblood slowly wakes up, with a yawn, but then he freezes. ‘This doesn’t feel right.’ He thinks to himself as he feels the area around him. It’s soft, warm, and moist, and the texture is extremely familiar. He hears a heartbeat pulsing around him and a soft breathing surrounding him. He opens his eyes only to see utter darkness, so he lights up his horn and finds out very quickly where he is. “I... I’m in a stomach.” He says with a strange calm as he gazes around, unlike the normal, wide open spaces of a stomach due to his tiny size, this one is a lot more cramped. He feels like he’s lying in a hammock, or he’s been put in a sack.

He’s lying on his back his rear legs pressed against the stomach walls, and the back of his head pressed against the other side. His fore legs are folded against his belly as he lays there in an odd calm. “This is oddly nice.” He says quietly, just lying there, listening to and watching the organs of whomever he’s in working.

Lindsey stifles a giggle, as she watches Tania’s sleeping form. She’d seen the girl swallow the stallion as both of them napped, and now she lays there her stomach bulging slightly as the stallion is now obviously awake, and the light from his horn shows through her shirt. She giggles once more as she walks over. “Wakey, wakey Tania.” She says gently. “I guess subconsciously you wanted to try it after all, because Blueblood is enjoying his time sitting in your stomach.”

Tania didn’t believe Lindsey at first, trying to push her away while she slept. “Nice try Lindsey, but Blueblood is right he-” She stopped as instead of feeling the fur of her coltfriend, she felt her shirt, or more importantly, how quick it was for her to reach her belly. She finally opened her eyes to see the very noticeable bulge under her shirt that was her distended stomach. “Wh-what the-?” She was quite scared as she sat up and the bulge only got more noticeable.

Lindsey giggles some more. “Told you, there he is, he’s even glowing to let you know.” She says patting Tania’s slight, but noticeable tummy. “Isn’t that just cute.” She says with a giggle.

Blueblood, still positioned as he was in the stomach, feels it shift as the person moves. He hears Lindsey’s muffled voice, and then Tania’s echoes around him. “I’m in Tania.” He says to himself. “I knew there was a reason I felt so calm.” He reaches out a forehoof and presses it softly against her stomach wall. “Hi Tania.” He calls out. “I kinda knew that I’d like it in here. It’s nice.”

Tania honestly didn’t know how to feel about this. She was worried, scared, confused… but felt good for some reason. She had a red blush on her cheeks after hearing Blueblood’s voice. She wanted to apologize, or to just take him out before anything happens to him, but she was just too embarrassed to say anything.

Lindsey giggles some more. “Now all you have to do is sing with him in there. The acoustics are probably amazing.” She says, before thinking about it. “You know what, at some point we’re going to have to try that. You and me switch places, you swallow all of us, and you sing a little song with us in your tummy.” She says a bit enthusiastically.

“Wh-what? I-I didn’t mean to do this. I don’t even know how I did this while I was asleep. I don’t sleep eat… I think.” Tania was more scared and worried then actually ‘happy’ to have anyone inside her… not in that way, you pervs. “I don’t even know how to let him out!”

Lindsey starts to laugh a bit. “Well, there’s two ways. You cough/burp/throw him up, or you wait a good ten to twelve hours. Like Tour Pinkie said. Now he’s not going to be capable of jumping out like Pinkie did or anything, so I suppose you’re going to have to be a bit more forceful. Personally, I think it would be kinda fun to watch that light making its way through you, but I don’t think you want to do that.” Lindsey says, still giggling. She holds out a hand. “Here, let me help you up. Takes a little while to get used to the extra weight. I guess it’s like being pregnant, only they’re in your stomach and it’s a pony.”

Tania’s blush never faded as she took the offered hand and was helped off the couch, having to have one hand on her belly as she stood up. “It feels so weird...” She admitted. “I’m a little scared honestly.”

“Scared of what?” Lindsey asks, still focused on Tania’s stomach. The bulge, just a little bit larger than hers or Stacy’s when it was Tour Pinkie, but still seemingly so small that you wouldn’t expect a full sized pony to be in there.

“I-I don’t know. N-no one has ever heard of a tiny eating a pony, and lot’s of things could’ve happened if I t-tried.” She said, listing the many outcomes like actually digesting him, being unable to cough, burp, or puke him out, and even the alien themed escape with the results of her being no longer living.

Lindsey laughs. “Well, I definitely don’t think he’s going to try an escape that would hurt you, and as for digesting him, you’re forgetting he’s under the same spell that we, you all are under. Trust someone who held him in her digestive tract for a couple months, he’ll be fine. As for being unable to get him out, well there’s always a way. If you can’t get him out either the fast way or the natural way, we could always talk to Starlight, she got her friend Trixie out of a Manticore and Cody out of a moving Rainbow Dash, so I’m sure she can get Blueblood out of you.” She replies. “So, you shouldn’t be worried about it, as I said he’ll be fine. He actually seems to like it in there.”

“B-but I don’t want to go out like this.” She also admitted. “I… I feel as bad as when I was caught singing in public. I’m just not curling in a scared ball cause you’re all my friends… and you wouldn’t judge me.” She let go of Lindsey’s hand as she hugged her belly tight as if to try and hide it. “You and everyone else might be okay with it… but I need more time… I don’t even know how this happened.”

“Well, you swallowed him, while you were sleeping, head first too. It was like watching a snake eat a mouse. After you managed to get around his horn though, it was smooth sailing. Should be glad that their horns are smooth and blunt at the end, rather than sharp and pointed.” Lindsey replies, patting Tania’s belly again. “Don’t worry, whether or not you continue is all up to you. He’s not going to force you to eat him. Actually, frankly, most tinies are probably going to be jealous of you, kind of like they are with me. Unless somehow tinies can swallow regular sized ponies, but I think that’s stretching it a bit.”

Tania couldn’t help but smirk a little at the pun she wasn’t sure if Lindsey made accidentally or on purpose. “I guess, b-but I really just want to see Blueblood again… I don’t think I can take a day with him or anyone else inside my stomach.”

“Don’t worry, you’ll see him again, all you have to do is get him back up, or, well, wait for nature to move him along. Nature will take a while though, so you have plenty of time to get him out. For now though, if I were you anyway, I’d just take the time to enjoy how close he is now. Think of it like this, he’s literally right next to your heart, you’re holding him in the largest hug ever.” Lindsey replies. “Personally, I just want to see what happens if you stretch, will the bump disappear like mine did when it was Pinkie Pie, or will there still be a noticeable little divot. Obviously, you’ll still see the light, which I have to admit is pretty cool. You should lift your shirt, I wonder if you can see his outline in your belly.” Lindsey says excitedly.

Tania wanted Lindsey to stop talking about this, the red blush never fading on her cheeks. But was just too flustered to say anything. “C-can we just get him out already?” She asked, not answering her question or showing what might happen.

“Aww, but I wanna see you give him a bit tighter of a stomach hug.” Lindsey says with a bit of a pout. She is faking it but she does want to see if Tania can make him seemingly vanish for a moment. “Just once, give him a little stronger hug and I’ll help get him out. Please.” She pleads.

“Maybe next time, but now I just want him back here where he’s not in some tiny’s stomach.” She crossed her arms as she really didn’t have the willingness to just do what Lindsey wanted her to do. “We don’t know how long he’s been in there, so I don’t want to waste any more time.”

Lindsey giggles. “That’s where you’re wrong. Remember, I saw you eat him. It’s only been about ten minutes, he’s got hours before your body decides to move him along.” Lindsey says in reminder. “Besides, he’s not in some tiny’s stomach, he’s in your stomach. You make it sound like some stranger came in and ate him.”

Blueblood stays laying down in Tania’s stomach, relaxing in the warm, spa-like climate, with the sound of her heart beat, her breathing, her voice, and even the gurgles of her stomach as a calming ambience. He only moves to nuzzle her from the inside, causing a portion of his face to be imprinted on her shirt until he’s done nuzzling her. “C-could I maybe, stay for a bit longer?” He asks. “I really like it in here.” He says. “It’s just so relaxing, so calm in here, and I feel even closer to you.”

Her cheeks turned red when she felt the nuzzling, and even heard him request to stay in a little longer. She really felt uncomfortable, and embarrassed, but she couldn’t say no to Blueblood. “...f-fine. But I’m not going outside.” She gave in, giving a single request as she didn’t want to be seen like this, while also being insecure about her singing, she was also insecure about how she looked on the outside as well.

Blueblood manages to roll over and stand up. The stallion moves around a bit, much like a dog, going in circles before he lays down, curling up inside her. “That’s okay Tania. As long as I can stay in here for a while.” He replied, nuzzling against her stomach.

Lindsey watches as the bulge grows, rippling as the stallion moves around, before it almost completely vanishes within Tania, looking more like she had when they had finished their chinese food.

Tania couldn’t really do much to stop it as the blush only grew on her cheeks as she really just wanted to lock herself in a room and stay there until this was all over.

“Awe, look, it’s almost like he isn’t even there. It’s so cute how they can just disappear in there like that.” Lindsey comments, giggling some more. “I’ll have to see if this is possible outside of Pinkie Pie. Personally, I think this is all because we’re in her that allows us to do this. I could be wrong though.” She says. “I kind of hope not, it would be fun to eat ponies, like they do us.”

“Yeah, a little taste of their own medicine.” Stacy spoke up, moving to where the two were. “And guessing by a missing stallion, Tania already made the move.”

“I didn’t do it on purpose.” She repeated herself, not wanting to sound as if she ate him cause she wanted to.

“Stacy, we were the ones who made the move first. Besides, Tania was asleep when she ate him, guess she was just a little hungry after digesting her chinese food. Besides, I’m not saying I want to get revenge on them, I just want to have a little fun.” Lindsey replies, defending Tania a bit. “I’d love to feel Cody, Daisy, Tyler, and yourself sitting comfortably in my stomach.” She smiles in a kind manner. “We’d all be so close. Oh, Starlight and Twilight would definitely want to study this if it’s possible.” Lindsey stands there giddy about the prospects. “As long as it’s safe of course. I don’t want to hurt anypony.”

“I know, I was just kidding about the getting back… but maybe ‘the gulper’ should be the first to be eaten outside of Pinkie’s town, city, whatever.” Stacy said, thinking that maybe Dash would love to know how it feels, more curious on how the mare would react then just getting back at her for all the tinies she may or may not have frightened when they arrived.

“And doesn’t Nightmare Moon kind of do that already, except she’s a pony herself. And she shrinks them down as well?” Tania asked, not sure if this is going to technically be a new thing that can happen.

“Well, Nightmare Moon focuses on Snatchers, and I believe that new one, Daybreaker will do the same thing.” Lindsey says, before looking at Stacy. “Good idea, getting Rainbow Dash. Do you want to switch and do the honors?” Lindsey asks with a giggle.

“Perhaps...” She said with a smirk on her lips. “I honestly want to se-er. Hear her freaking out once she realizes what just happened. It’s going to be like a prank in it’s own way.” She said, already feeling giddy with excitement as just the idea itself. “I bet she’ll taste like skittles.”

“Does this mean that we have to leave now… j-just like I am?” Tania asked, a little worried on what might happen if they leave, and how tinies and ponies might think of her now that she ate the only shrunken pony as a tiny herself.

“Well, if you want, I could hide you until we get back to the castle. Plus, if we can’t get Blueblood out of you the quick way, Starlight can help you.” Lindsey replies to Tania, before looking back excitedly to Stacy. “I just had an idea, one I know you’ll love! Perhaps instead of switching with me you switch with Twilight or Starlight. Then one of us catches Dash, and when she tries to escape, we have a, nice, romantic french kiss to keep Dash trapped in our stomachs.” Lindsey says giddily, knowing that Stacy would be very tempted by the offer.

“Well, I honestly thought the first idea was to trick Dash into coming, and Twilight using the spell on her so she can move the spell onto her. But maybe that idea will leave more of a mark on her.” Stacy smiled, just imagining the look on her face knowing that she’ll get what she deserves from her little tiny hunting goal.

“I guess you’re interested in revenge. I just want to feel as she flies up and down our throats.” Lindsey replies. “So I guess that means, in order to make sure she takes the hint you’re going to have her stay for the full trip, huh?” Lindsey says with a bit of a giggle.

“Maybe… maybe not.” She didn’t answer completely, the smirk never leaving her lips. “Any way to let that pegasus know what kind of impact she’s leaving for all the tinies she’s tried before.”

“Well, I guess we’ll be finding out what happens when a switched tiny shrinks with a pony inside them.” Lindsey says. “That would be pretty funny to watch considering the magic here. A tiny coughing up a full sized pony.”

“I-I don’t think th-that would be safe for anyone.” Tania just had to speak up. “I-if Rainbow Dash doesn’t have the spell on her, d-doesn’t that mean she’s at risk to being injured by the stomach acid?”

“Remember yesterday how I was in Twilight’s stomach? She hadn’t switched me with someone, she used some spells to shrink me down and to make it so I could breath and not be hurt by the stomach acids or her throat muscles. She could do something similar to Dash.” Lindsey says.

“Yeah, but I don’t think the princess would undo her spell and let a giant human stay in her stomach, am I right?” Tania asked, knowing that with so many risks, she wouldn’t take the chance.

“If she were to do that, she’d probably monitor to make sure nothing goes wrong.” Lindsey replies. “She is a rather curious pony after all. She loves to run experiments.”

“Even if it has the risk of harming someone?” Tania asked, hoping she wouldn’t approve of that, since that wouldn’t really sound good since she, Blueblood and Swiffer was living under the same crystal roof with the alicorn.

“Of course not, she makes sure that her experiments are safe. She wouldn’t dream of harming another living being.” Lindsey replies.

Tania mentally let out a sigh of relief after hearing that. “So I don’t think she would do that to Rainbow or Stacy, much to your curiosity.” She said, thinking that maybe now is a good enough time to change the subject. “Anyways, if you want to do it that badly, we should probably get going.” She said. “Right after I try and get Blueblood out.” She was quick to add before she started making her way to the bathroom, needing her privacy as she felt it was rude to try and do it in front of everyone, two of the four ways being rude in public. It took much longer then when Stacy and Pinkie did it, but after the sound of the shower being used, Blueblood was the first to walk out with a clean coat, while Tania looked disheveled, with messy hair, and an even messier dress she was wearing.

“Pinkie’s physic breaking thing probably made it easier.” Stacy commented, recalling that she didn’t look that bad, only feeling as if she didn’t eat for a whole week.

“Probably. That sounded pretty tough. Then again, Pinkie also doesn’t have a horn and can bend and twist farther than most. Well, and Blueblood probably didn’t want out just yet.” Lindsey says, looking at the stallion with a mischievous smile.

“I-I might have wanted to stay…” Blueblood admits with a small smile. He then makes his way to Tania, nuzzling one of her legs.

“Still think eating a same size pony is a good idea?” She simply asked the two as she knows that the last part wasn’t that great. But her grumpy mood was shortened when Blueblood nuzzled close to her, making her blush as she pet the stallion’s mane a little to show that she appreciated the gesture.

Lindsey giggles. “Well, yours was trying to stay inside. I’m sure Dash will want out.” She replies, starting to giggle some more, already imagining the pegasus struggling within.

“He wasn’t trying to stay inside.” She simply said, knowing that Blueblood wasn’t forcing himself to stay inside.

Blueblood blushes a bit. “She may have, uh, had to try a couple times. I kept ending up being stuck in her stomach, with a hoof lodged in her throat.” He says, a bit embarrassed. “I had to sit up and hold my forehooves above my head to get out.”

“Felt like I was trying to puke out my own stomach...” She admitted, not really liking the constant, yet familiar feeling of puking.

“Well, at least you discovered one way to get him out.” Lindsey replies. “It won’t be as hard next time, now that you know. If there is a next time.” She says, knowing Tania wouldn’t want to. Blueblood looks down sadly, as if knowing that Tania probably wouldn’t want to eat him again. “Anyway, let’s get going. I’m looking forward to spending some quality time with a certain rainbow pegasus.”

“Alright, let’s just wake Tyler up and then we’ll be on our way.” Stacy said, stretching her arms a little as she waited for one of the two to do it instead of her.

After waking Tyler, the group heads out. Tour Pinkie getting them a bus back to the edge of the city. Pinkie Pie first coughs Lindsey up, who grows back to her full size. She then quickly coughs up the others. The group make their way back to Twilight’s castle, with two of them eager for a fun prank on the cyan and rainbow pegasus prankster in the town.

Lindsey walks into the castle and heads straight toward Twilight’s study. There is something the princess has to see first. Something that has to be tried. “Sorry Tania, but you’re going to have to try and eat Blueblood once more. We’ve got to show Twilight. Well, if it’s possible anyway.” She says to the girl before going into the study. “Twilight, you’ve got to see this. Pinkie Pie showed us something that is pretty interesting. Tania and Blueblood can demonstrate.” She tells the Princess, setting the two on the table.

Twilight canters over. “What is it? What are you two going to show me?” She asks the two standing on her table.

Of course, it was too late for Tania to say otherwise since now the princess wanted to know and see what they ‘discovered’. But seeing that all eyes were on the two, Tania just couldn’t say no now. ‘I hate you so much Lindsey...’ She thought negatively, turning to Blueblood as to let him try something first before she had to do anything herself.

“Alright, let’s uh, try with my rear legs first.” He whispers to her, not knowing how she’d got him down originally. He turns around so she can grab his rear legs and start swallowing him.

Feeling very awkward in doing this, she first started with a little taste, getting used to his tiny flavor before she actually started putting one of his hand hooves in her mouth, soon doing the other. It took all of her willpower to not gag, but it didn’t take long to already reach his midsection, his hind legs and tail already through her mouth. She had a pink blush on her cheeks as she decided to shut her eyes to try and make her forget she was being watched doing this. They could see the large bulge on her neck that was part of his bottom half, having to breath harder than before since this was a struggle in itself. After a few more minutes, she was already finished, slurping the last bit of his horn before she had to sit back, and show the very noticeable stomach bulge that was Blueblood, the size kind of overstretching her dress as it was lifted up, the bulge hiding her panties thankfully.

Twilight watched the scene with a gaping mouth. When Tania finishes, Twilight looks closely at her massively distended belly. “Wow! I... I didn’t know this was possible.” She looks closely at the two, but then looks to Lindsey. “Do you think you could?” She asks.

“Um, yes Twilight, but, you know there’s a slight problem. You know, from being in a stomach.” Lindsey replies, not wanting to hurt the Princess, or worse.

“Oh! Well, hold on then.” Twilight replies, her horn lighting up and her aura surrounding herself for a moment. “Alright, let’s try it!” She says excitedly, before turning around just like blueblood.

Lindsey sets Stacy and Tyler on the table. She then grabs Twilight’s legs and carefully stuffs them in her mouth and starts swallowing her. Slowly but surely, the princess starts going down her throat, just like Blueblood. Eventually, the princess finds herself as a bulge in Lindsey’s stomach. “Wow! This is amazing!” Twilight says, muffled by the flesh and muscle. “I didn’t know tinies, humans, could do this.”

“Neither did I.” Lindsey replies to the pony in her stomach. “We just found out from Pinkie Pie, or really a mirror pool clone in her stomach.”

‘I really don’t see how this could help anyone.’ Tania thought, deciding to stay quiet as she rested her head on her large stomach.

Blueblood feels her head and nuzzles up against it. “I still think it’s really comfortable in here.”

“Well, at least someone is happy.” Tania admitted, starting to lightly rub her stomach since it hurt a little by the stretching.

Lindsey rubs her engorged stomach as Twilight moves around inside. “He’s not the only one, this feels pretty good actually.” She says as the pony within her continues moving around, her magic aura causing her stomach to glow as Twilight examines how this is happening.

Tania wanted to ask, but Stacy was the one to beat her to it. “So is this all we’re going to do?” She simply asked, arms crossed as this seemed boring on her side.

“Hold on.” Lindsey says, still rubbing her stomach. “Twilight, Stacy and I had some, plans. I was wondering if you could either switch Stacy and Rainbow Dash, or switch with Stacy and cast those spells on Rainbow Dash. We’re planning on pranking her.”

Lindsey’s stomach suddenly deflates with a flash and Twilight appears in front of them. “Oh, okay, I’ll help out then.” She replies. “Hmm. Back in a second.” She says after thinking a moment, vanishing again.

Stacy was a little curious on what Twilight might do, resting her head on her knuckle as she was still a little bored. “What do you think she’ll do?” She asked out loud to no one in particular.

Twilight reappears with Dash suspended in her magical grip, which then extends to Stacy who is floated off the table and sat in her normal sized wheelchair. Suddenly Stacy grows and Dash shrinks down to tiny size before being given to Stacy. “Did I help?” She asks merrily. Dash sits in Stacy’s grasp too surprised and scared to do anything.

It was all so sudden that she had to be given a second or two to process what happened, seeing that Dash was now in her hands like a cute little mouse. She couldn’t help but smirk, it looking kind of sinister in Dash’s eyes. “Absolutely.” She made sure to place a hand over Rainbow’s back so that she wouldn’t try and fly away. “I owe you big time.” She looked over at the mare. Being curious, Stacy gently grasped her from her back, wings folded by her side and flipped the mare upside down. Almost imitating a pet bird, her hooves gripped onto her fingers, while she could only look at the giant woman. Stacy couldn’t help but giggle. “It’s like holding a pet bird.”

Twilight beams happily at Stacy, before looking to Tania. “Alright, you two are coming with me. I need to research your discovery some more.” She says, snatching up Tania and heading off to another portion of the study.

Lindsey walks over to Stacy and looks at the tiny Rainbow Dash. “Well. I guess it’s time to get this party started.” She says before looking over to Tyler. “Enjoy the show!” She says with a giggle, receiving a thumbs up from the tiny man.

Dash starts to struggle. “What show?! What are you guys going to do with me?!” She asks in panic.

“Isn’t it obvious? You have my magic on you, so there’s only one thing we can do with you… that is age appropriate.” Stacy said, the smirk never leaving her face. “And besides, I’m sure you’re a little curious on what happens to the tinies you try.” Her grip was gentle, but also tight enough to not let the pegasus easily slip out of.

Dash’s pupils shrink to pinpricks and she gulps nervously. “N-no! P-p-please!” She exclaims in fear.

Lindsey walks seductively over to Stacy. “Oh yes. We’re going to have a lot of fun.” She says in a playful whisper to Rainbow Dash.

“Would you like to do the honors?” Stacy asked, quick to shuffle her hand to now pinch the short end of Dash’s tail, making sure to not be too far for her to slip through, nor too close to be uncomfortable.

Dash struggles and flaps her wings. Once powerful, at this size she’s completely unable to escape Stacy’s grasp. “No! Please! Don’t do this!”

Lindsey giggles. “I’d love to do the honors.” She replies to Stacy. “Oh Dash, stop worrying, you’re just like a tiny.” She says to the tiny pegasus before swiftly closing her mouth around the struggling pegasus, Stacy slipping her fingers away as the mare’s tail was all that was showing between the girl’s lips. “Hmm. MMM! Oh. Shuch a tashy little ony.” Lindsey replies with her mouth full of Dash, slurping the pony inside. “Wach this.” Lindsey says, opening her mouth wide, revealing a drenched Rainbow Dash, struggling to stand in her mouth. Carefully she uses her tongue to shove Dash to the back of her mouth.

“No! No! Please no! AH!” Dash screams as the woman swallows her without shutting her mouth. Her finger tracing Dash’s descent into her stomach.

Stacy leaned over and was bold enough to feel the small bulge going down her neck as well. The odd feeling making her giggle on impulse. “It’s so weird feeling it from the outside.” She admitted. “And I guess Dash feels the same way.”

Lindsey giggles. “Yup, Skittles doesn’t seem to like it on the other side. Oh! Check out my tongue, I think I’ve got a souvenir for you.” She says opening her mouth wide and sticking out her tongue.

Curious, Stacy leaned a little closer to see just what was this ‘souvenir’ was that Lindsey had. It didn’t take long for her to notice a blue feather or two on her pink tongue. She honestly wasn’t sure if she expected her to just pluck the feathers off of her tongue.

Lindsey pulls her tongue back into her mouth so she can speak. “How many feathers?” She asks with a giggle.

“I think it was only two or three. Not a lot.” She answered, a pink blush on her cheeks as for once, she was rather close to Lindsey’s face. She was also a little glad that she could be the same size as her, even though it wasn’t going to be forever.

“Well, that’s enough for each of us to have a souvenir. So, want to grab yours?” Lindsey asks with a giggle, sticking out her tongue and plucking one of the feathers from it.

She was quick to nod in at the offer, blushing like a flustered schoolgirl that spending time with her senpai, even after she knows that Lindsey doesn’t swing that way. ‘But damn it does she mess with me!’ She thought, lifting a hand and taking one that was not as small as the one still on her tongue, or as big as the one that Lindsey picked without seeing.

Lindsey stands up. “Hold on, I’ll be back, gotta give Tyler his souvenir, and maybe I’ll be back with an extra playmate.” She says, winking at the girl stuck sitting in the chair. She then heads over and scoops Tyler up with her mouth. She comes back, opening wide, showing Tyler clutching the feather and sitting up on her tongue. “Rehy oh hlay?” She asks with a full mouth, causing Tyler to bounce when her tongue moved.

Stacy wanted to ask what she meant by ‘play’, but not wanting to ruin what was already happening, she only nodded at Lindsey’s question. She had an idea, but she wasn’t sure if Lindsey would go that far for a little ‘fun’.

Tyler sits there, not knowing what to do. He is stuck after all, at the whim of the two giant women. On the one hand, the girl he viewed as the sister he never had, which had him rather flustered. On the other, the crippled girl he has a crush on. He sits there, waiting for something to happen. Lindsey giggles, rocking Tyler a bit. “Whell? Wha’cha waihing for?” She asks.

“Wh-what do you mean?” She stuttered, not sure what exactly she was putting down that Lindsey wanted her to pick up.

“You hook hike you whan’ ho dho shomething. Gho ohn.” Lindsey says, suppressing giggles as Tyler bounces on her tongue.

“... I don’t think you’ll like it.” Her blush faded a little, glancing away as the thing she wanted to do was most likely something that ‘friends’ wouldn’t do together.

Lindsey raises an eyebrow. “Hry me.” She replies, before closing her mouth and starting to really focus on tasting Tyler, waiting for whatever Stacy was going to do.

Stacy’s blush turned from pink to red when she thought about it. Counting to three in her head, she shut her eyes as she grabbed Lindsey by her cheeks, and pulled her in for a kiss, it being sudden, forceful, yet passionate. But she didn’t just do it cause she wanted to, she began using tongue and was now starting a little wrestling match to see who could take Tyler into their mouth and swallow him.

Lindsey was caught off guard by Stacy’s timing, but not by the kiss, knowing that Stacy had probably wanted to. Then she was caught off guard by how quick Stacy was in attempting to take Tyler. She was planning on eventually giving him up to Stacy, but what was the fun in getting a freebie, the best rewards are earned after all, so she fights back a bit.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash is pacing back and forth in Lindsey’s stomach, flapping her wings to dry them out. Hoping eventually to escape, but for now, she has no choice but to stay in the massive stomach.

It was easy for Lindsey to see that this was her first time trying this, it being easy for Tyler to be taken back every time Stacy had him. But Stacy wasn’t going to give up so easily either. The red blush was still on her cheeks as she continued to make out with the girl she had a crush on, while also trying to get the said crush’s friend from her mouth. She would assume this was a dream if she wasn’t able to feel everything that was going on.

Lindsey suppresses a giggle as Stacy continues to fight her for Tyler. She feels the pony in her stomach take off, flying around to try and get out. ‘It’s time.’ In one swift moment, Lindsey gets the pony out of her stomach, shooting her up into the dueling mouths. Dash crashes right into Tyler and both plummet into the back of Stacy’s mouth. Lindsey takes the moment to get out of Stacy’s grasp and backs off.

Stacy was caught by surprise when that happened, the actual impact of the two flying in her mouth making her break the kiss. Feeling the two in her mouth, she covered her lips as she had a red blush on her cheeks, not expecting it as her reflex didn’t make her swallow the two immediately.

Lindsey walks over to another chair and sits down. “There you go, that’s my apology for leading you on for so long.” She says before relaxing in the chair.

Dash is wrapped around Tyler as he stands in the back of Stacy’s mouth. She shivers and shakes with fear, not being used to the other way around at all. “Aw, come on Dash, you know there’s nothing to worry about. This is what you do to tinies all the time.” Tyler says to the terrified pegasus.

“Ish...” She cleared her mouth a little by pushing the two into one of her cheeks, making her talk more clearly. “It’s okay. And sorry for kissing you.” She apologized. “I know you don’t swing that way, but it’s kind of hard to ignore the things that you do.” She blushed pink after saying that, right before she started tasting the two, surprised that Rainbow did taste like skittles.

Lindsey giggles. “Hey, I love to tease. It’s my thing, and you’re fine with the kiss, after all, how else was I going to transfer those two into your mouth.” Lindsey replies. “Dash goes pretty well with Tyler’s taste, I think.” She comments, thinking about the ever changing fruity flavor of the pegasus mixed with Tyler’s cola taste.

Tyler and Dash don’t have time to talk as they’re tossed around in Stacy’s mouth. Tyler lays there, just enjoying (Not in that way you sick *********) the attention, somewhat. Dash on the other hand is freaking out. She attempts to fight against Stacy’s tongue as best she can, unfortunately the massive tongue is a wall of pure muscle, easily overpowering the puny pony.

“It tashed kind of wird tah me.” Stacy tried to speak, sometimes moving the two from one cheek to the other. But when she swallowed some of the saliva collecting in her mouth, she accidentally swallowed Tyler first. “I think I swallowed Tyler.” She spoke clearly with Rainbow in one of her cheeks.

“Don’t worry, he’s fine. Might want to make sure Dashie there doesn’t escape though.” Lindsey replies, with a bit of a giggle. “So, how’re you liking swallowing your first tinies?” She asks.

“It honestly feels really weird. It’s empowering… but I do feel a little guilty about doing this to Tyler. Rainbow, maybe a little less.” She answered, right before she swallowed the cyan pegasus and cleared her mouth. “I don’t think I can get used to it easily.”

“Don’t feel guilty, I’m fine. It’s really nice in here. I know you don’t feel for me, like I do for you, so I guess it’ll be the same with you and Lindsey now, but it feels like you’re giving me a nice, loose hug. I don’t know how to explain it, but it just feels nice that you’re the one I’m inside.” Tyler says from inside her stomach.

“Empowering. That’s definitely one way of putting it. You definitely have power over others and it’s quite enticing. Personally, I find it a bit different. I like it because I feel like I’m protecting whomever I’ve eaten. Like I’m holding them in the closest of embraces. At least with the tinies I know like Tyler, Cody, and you.” Lindsey replies. “Oh, and it does take awhile to get used to. After all, you’re putting them into what should be the most dangerous place for them, and more, they’re alive and you can feel and hear them moving around and talking. When you get used to it though, it’s as I said, a nice pleasant feeling, like you’re holding them in the biggest hug you can.”

“Feels more as if I’m trapping them in a fleshy cage.” Stacy admitted, picturing herself as one of those birds in Alice in Wonderland that actually had a cage as a body.

“Well, in Dashie’s case, you are. In Tyler’s case, he probably doesn’t mind, and probably even views it as I said.” Lindsey says. “Yeah, I can definitely see it like that, but I guess it just depends on how you see it. After all, you view this as taking freedom away, keeping them locked up. I view it as keeping them held safely in my, well, stomach. Caring for them.”

“I guess...” She shrugged as she leaned against the chair she was set upon. “Do you even know how long this will last?”

“From what I remember Twilight saying, a day or two unless canceled.” Lindsey replies.

“I don’t think Dash would like being a tiny for a day or two… not after we tell every tiny that they can also eat her.” Stacy showed a mischievous grin as she had a feeling that would be her next plan. “I just want them to know that they can give their gratitude and thanks the same way she welcomed some of them.”

Lindsey giggles. “Did you know that the way she welcomes a lot of them has actually given her quite a bit of a fan base?” She asks, giggling.

“Possibly, but if she had those types of fans, I think they will be more than excited to hear that.” She said, knowing any fan base has fans that go a little overboard.

“Actually, they often tend to want to be eaten by her, just to hang out with her. They also tend to meet up with the pony’s Rainbow Dash fanclub.” Lindsey replies. “I know you’ve seen Rainbow Dash’s ‘bad side’ but she has a good side to this as well. She rescues tinies who are in peril when they show up, from appearing hundreds of feet in the sky, to being stuck in trees or on cliffs.” She continues, trying to get through to Stacy that Rainbow Dash isn’t just a tiny eating machine.

‘Sure. Ruin the moment why don’t you...’ She thought negatively as she wasn’t fond of Lindsey every time she did this. “Yeah, well if she’s so great, then why is she still called ‘the gulper’? Besides, you should know that people don’t care about the good side in anyone. They just care about their flaws, mistakes, and dark side.”

Lindsey sighs. “I know you’ve had a hard time in life and that’s what you’ve seen in others and see about others, but it’s not true for everyone. What about me? Did I just see your flaws, mistakes, and dark side? Or was it just you seeing mine?” She asks, a bit more seriously.

“Well the majority of the time I opened my mouth you threatened to eat me, so I think you can answer your own question.” Stacy said, a little grumpy.

“Everytime, are you sure about that?” Lindsey replies in a huff. “I seem to recall threatening to eat you only when you were, hmm I don’t know, focusing on my bad side!” Lindsey says angrily. “Heck, not even my bad side, just what you thought was my bad side!”

“Ah, yes. Of course you threatening to eat me at the multiple times you are like this is just me thinking you are showing your bad side. If that’s the case, isn’t right at this moment just you thinking I’m showing my bad side, in which it really isn’t?” Stacy said, crossing her arms as she leaned back on her seat. “Sounds to me like your safe and caring stomach seems more like a prison for people like me.”

“Oh yes I completely forgot, I threatened to eat you for no reason at all. I must’ve just imagined you insulting me at every opportunity.” Lindsey replies in angry sarcasm, standing up. “You know what, I’ve noticed a little pattern with you. Every time I do something nice, you repay my kindness with insults. So you know what? I’m not going to be kind to you any more. In fact, I’m going to leave. I’m going to buy that home for myself and take my friends with me. You can stay here with Twilight and Starlight.” She says even angrier heading to the door. “I bet they dump you off at a village in an hour after having to deal with your attitude. So, goodbye Stacy.” Lindsey finishes, opening the door to the study and leaving, slamming it shut behind her.

Once Lindsey left, she let in a shaky breath before she moved a little closer to the study room table, placing a hand to her forehead as she honestly felt bad for how she acted. But she had a feeling on how she Lindsey and Tyler were together, she knew that she couldn’t really be in the picture. To be honest, she really was just thinking about moving to the village, and with Lindsey’s words, it just sealed it. “Figured this would happen… I deserve to be alone after everything.” She told herself, taking in another breath to clear the lump in her throat. After a few moments of silent thinking, she finally let the two out and set them on the table, not even looking at them as she faced away from the two. She didn’t really stay for long as she unlocked her wheels on her wheelchair and left the room next. She honestly wanted to be alone, and having a tiny and a mare inside her stomach didn’t really make her feel ‘alone’.

But back with Twilight, Tania and Blueblood, the stallion was out of the tiny’s stomach, the alicorn taking notes on everything, but when she went to measure the tiny… something seemed off.

“Hmm, something’s wrong. There’s something different about you.” Twilight says, getting a closer look, and when she does, she gasps. “You’re taller!” She exclaims. “In fact you’re taller than the maximum a tiny has ever been! You’ve gained an entire inch! How is this possible?” Twilight asks as she continues looking over Tania.

Standing next to Tania, Blueblood notices the change as well, now only coming up to just under the girl’s knees. “Wow, she’s right?! You are taller?!”

“Wh-what? B-but this shouldn’t be possible. How is this even possible!?” Even if it was just an inch, she was already freaking out inside as she wasn’t sure if it was the magic in her voice, the magic she had to be given via Princess Twilight’s stomach, or even her time in Pinkie’s village.

“I-I don’t know.” Twilight replies. “I, I need to run a scan, hold still.” She says, lighting up her horn and surrounding Tania with her aura in a scan. “Y-your magic reserves, they’ve grown! I think your magic reserves are making you grow somehow! I’m still just trying to find out how you developed magic and now it’s making you grow.” Twilight says with a bit of a sigh. “Ugh, tinies just keep getting more and more complicated. What’s next?”

Rainbow Dash flies into the room, still tiny. “Twilight! Twilight! Lindsey and Stacy had a fight! Stacy took things too far and now Lindsey’s angry and Stacy’s going to run away or something!” Dash says in a worried tone.

Twilight face hoofs. “I had to ask, and put Stacy in her wheelchair. I can’t change you back either Dash, if she’s moving then it’ll be dangerous for her to return to tiny size.” Twilight looks down to Lindsey and Blueblood. “Sorry, but figuring this out will have to wait, and uhm, guess you’ll be taking a ride too.” Twilight apologizes before swiftly swallowing the two. “Okay Dash, lead the way!” Twilight exclaims, following Dash as she takes off, flying down the halls.

Back with Stacy, she wasn’t really trying to ‘run away’ or anything, she was in one of the many guest rooms, not bothering in going to where Lindsey, Tyler, Cody and Daisy were currently residing in, figuring that the room is where Lindsey would most likely be in right now. She was sitting on the guest bed messing with her hands a little while shedding a tear or two. But once she heard the sound of clopping hooves, she was quick to wipe them away as to not be seen crying or anything.

The door opens revealing Twilight, and a tiny rainbow and cyan object floating next to her, obviously Rainbow Dash. “Stacy! We were worried. Dash told me what’s happened.” She notices that Stacy has been crying. “Sorry, I need to switch Dash and you back so she can find Lindsey.” Twilight says, her aura surrounding the two. Dash regrowing and Stacy back down to her tiny size. Dash quickly flies off searching for Lindsey and Twilight gets onto the bed, laying Stacy against the pillow, and lowering her head to get on her level. “What’s wrong Stacy?” She asks.

Stacy didn’t answer as she turned her head away from her. “Nothing...” She simply said, crossing her arms as she didn’t feel like talking.

Twilight sighs. “Fine.” Her horn glows and Tania appears, closer to Stacy. “Could you talk to her, she seems to respond better to you.” Twilight says, getting off the bed. “I’ll give you two some privacy.” Twilight says, heading out of the room and closes the door.

As soon as Tania opened her mouth, Stacy was the first to beat her to it. “I’m not talking.” She said with a bit of attitude.

“And that’s fine, no need to talk. I’ll just tell Twilight you just need your space.” Tania tried backing away, but only fell back on the pillow, it being too soft for her to actually take a step backwards.

Stacy only huffed and turned away from her, having to use her upper body strength to move her bottom half.

Now it was just the two together being quiet on the pillow, neither of them being able to get off the bed to even leave the room, both for size problems, but extra for Stacy and her… condition.

After a moment Twilight opens the door. “H-how’s it going?” She asks. She then sees them sitting there quiet, and with Stacy facing a bit angrily away from Tania. “That bad huh?” Twilight asks rhetorically, before sighing. “Stacy, we’re just trying to help you. Why won’t you let us?” She asks earnestly.

“Cause I don’t need help, okay?” She said with attitude. “I just want to be alone, can’t I just be given that?” She asked, wanting to just leave this castle already. “I just want to get away from all of this mess. I just want to be alone like I always have been.”

“Somehow, I don’t think you do.” Twilight says, considering how Stacy had started feeling like this. “You always get along with Lindsey up until she does something specifically to help you, and when you two talk about other tinies back home or ponies. Why is that?” Twilight asks.

“I don’t need to explain myself to you.” She simply said, not budging cause she didn’t want to explain her reasons, only to be shot down by someone else just cause things were different here and she was just supposed to accept it as if she just wasn’t on Earth not even a year ago.

“Why? What’s happened to have you think so little of others?” Twilight asks, having heard several of her fights with Lindsey.

“Simple: it’s the same way that people used to treat me.” She answered, still facing away from the mare. “You don’t think that crippled people like me don’t get talked down upon? I had everything, but then lost everything. And just being here, shrunken down just to be some horse’s snack for the day, just adds salt to the wound.” She slowly sat up from her spot as she looked at the open door. “Back on earth, the only solution was to just lock myself up and barely come out. I couldn’t do that with Lindsey and everyone else just dragging me along to everything they do. So now that this falling out happened, I’m thinking of just living in the village and never leaving.” She looked down seeing the tear stains on the pillow. “Ponies can’t come in without permission, and Lindsey can’t set foot without freaking out the others… it’s a win-win for everyone.”

“Sounds like just a win-win for you, and from what I’ve heard, you’d often enjoyed these outings as well. Even more, none of you tinies are ever considered by most ponies as just a snack. I know there are snatchers out there, and they don’t care about tinies, but the average pony does care about tinies and their feelings, even Dash.” Twilight says. “Now then, what do you mean by people treating you as you have us? What do you mean by being talked down to?” She asks.

“If you don’t get it the first time around, then I’m not repeating myself.” Stacy said, not wanting to explain more in detail as she just wanted to get this over with and be left alone.

“From what I know, Lindsey, Tyler, and I have treated you as an equal, as a friend. I know that Daisy does care about you as well, along with Cody. I also know that at your size and having crippled legs means you have a harder time getting around and getting things on your own, so we help you, not just because of your condition but also because we consider you a friend.” Twilight replies. “Dash cared about how you felt and even tried to eat tinies less while you were around her. So, what happened? What has made you so cynical, so pessimistic that you seem to despise everyone around you?” Twilight asks, not in anger, but in concern. Seeing much of her former self, of Starlight Glimmer, Moondancer, and Sunset’s former selves as well.

“Oh, friends. That’s what you see right? I get Tyler, and Cody and Daisy do little to nothing with me. But of course if Dash and Lindsey are friends with me, then it must be pretty normal to threaten one another into eating the other, and even abandoning me while knowing that I can’t go anywhere or do anything without them!” She said angrily, at this point in time not seeing them as friends. “Sorry princess, but I don’t see them as friends. Not anymore...” She took a small breath to clear the lump in her throat yet again. “And don’t tell me that bullshit about me saying harsh words to them, I know some people that could do worse, while also not regretting it afterwards.”

Twilight sighs. “From what I remember hearing about these incidents, you weren’t just berating them for something they’d done, you were outright assassinating their character, accusing them of things they hadn’t done, that you would belittle them for no reason, you make it seem like their only reason for being around you was to torment and abuse you, as if they didn’t care at all. How do you expect them to react when you make it seem like their only interest in you is much like a young foal’s interest in a toy some other foal has? Wanting it only to cast it aside as soon as they get it. How do you expect them to act when you treat them as enemies when you talk to them, and servants the rest of the time? ” Twilight replies, starting to get a little aggravated, seeing what Lindsey and Dash were talking about. “Cody and Daisy are often gone at school, but I had heard from them that they’ve enjoyed talking with you over the weeks. Tyler on the other hoof has spent a lot more time with you, helping you around when Lindsey can’t, pushing your wheelchair when you’re tired, helping to make sure you’re comfortable.”

“Look, I don’t need to make it any more elaborate for you to understand. If Lindsey wants me out of her life, then fine, I’m going to the village and I’ll be back in my comfort zone where I don’t have to worry about anyone but myself.” Stacy shook her head, just wishing she could get up and leave, but she could honestly be left here for all of time if Twilight wanted to.

“I don’t know, it seems like you want everyone else out of your life. After all, we try to invite you into our lives, but all you seem to do is push everyone away, violently, metaphorically speaking. So, again I ask, why do you act as if not just this world, but your own world as well, and everyone in them have something against you and are out to get you?” Twilight asks, keeping herself as calm as she can be, after all, she’d dealt with worse.

“I said I’m not going to explain myself anymore, alright!?” She shouted, not wanting to talk anymore. “I just want to be alone, and that’s it. I would like it more if everyone would not want to be in my business all the time. If I can’t go back home, then I might as well just be by myself and wait until I can or if I die for all I care.”

“And how do you intend to get to anywhere to be alone?” Twilight asks. “Being trapped up on that bed after all, in my castle, and with everypony inside knowing that you’re in here?”

“As if I would answer that.” Stacy huffed, not really caring where she would be left alone, just that she would be.

“Well sorry, but I’m not going to leave you all to your lonesome.” Twilight replies. “You may think all of ponykind, and possibly even all of humankind are heartless monsters, and that you are that one shining beacon among them, but fortunately for you, and us, most of us aren’t. However, I will be ‘merciful’ and put you somewhere you are going to technically be alone. You can pout, cry, yell, scream, curse, call us names, and whatever else you want, because what I’m going to do is, well, eat you. However, this time is going to be a bit different. I’m going to place an enchantment that will block out every voice from your hearing except your own and make you completely invisible to everyone else in there. You’ll be all on your own in there. There is a way to get out though, but I’ll let you figure that out on your own. After all, telling would be helping and you don’t want that do you?” Twilight says, igniting her horn and surrounding Stacy in her aura, setting the enchantments and teleporting the tiny girl into her stomach without giving her any time to object. “I hope you’ll figure out the true importance of friendship sometime soon Stacy, I don’t like having to do this to you.”

With a sickening splat of her body hitting the stomach floor from a small gap, she tried to be quick to find a dry spot, already kicking in her PTSD before she covered her ears and shut her eyes, but not before hearing Twilight’s last words. “Well if you didn’t want to fucking do this then why did you!?” She asked out loud, of course not getting a response as to actually see that whatever Twilight did worked.

But back outside, Tania couldn’t help but feel a little sorry, worried, and concerned for Stacy. “Are you sure that was a good idea?” She asked. “I feel like you didn’t think that through… or resolved it in any way.”

Twilight sighs. “I know it seems rushed, and I admit it was, but she needs to be in a safe environment where I can monitor her, and my magic will keep her sustained, so she can’t starve or dehydrate herself. I also know about her fear, and there isn’t much I can do about that, but there’s also the fact that since she’s essentially isolated, she’ll eventually have to start thinking about everything, and perhaps she’ll realize that perhaps she’s the one keeping herself back and not others.” Twilight replies. “However, if you’d like another shot at getting through to her, I’ll modify the enchantments so that you can talk to her and see her.”

“Listen, Princess. I don’t mean to say that your actions are wrong or rather… pointless, but they are.” Tania started. “You should know that some people or ponies may want to be alone for awhile. Probably want to be in their comfort zone… and I don’t think you belly is the first place in mind. All she’ll think about is what happened the last time she was in somepony’s stomach without thinking about her opinions, and probably what happened before that caused that.” She explained. “She’s hard headed, I can tell, just like my dad. But just like him, she just needs some alone time where she feels she can be herself. Maybe it would’ve been better to keep her in a tiny guest room, or a doll house.” She suggested. “You could place some spell to keep her inside, and also used that other spell to keep her from starving or whatever.”

“It’s not a spell keeping her from starving or dehydrating. I’ve done some research, the magic aura that shines in my stomach acid, well, just as it helped restore your magic reserves, so too does it keep her alive. I guess, if she needs though, I could cast an illusion to make it seem like she’s in a room.” Twilight replies. “I know she’s stubborn, hard headed, but she also needs to realize that some people, or ponies, aren’t going to sit there the whole time letting her talk down to them as if they aren’t people or ponies, but as monsters who could care less about her.”

“... Princess I don’t think that’s what she’s trying to accomplish.” She simply said. “And illusions are pointless now that she knows she’s in your stomach. I know you’ve heard this a couple of times from other tinies, but where we come from, we were the only superior race. There was no magical unicorns, no flying pegasus, or ponies that have very vibrant colors when they don’t have their coat or mane dyed. And we were also at the top of the food chain, nothing can touch us, and even the biggest elephants or the most dangerous tigers in the forest couldn’t mess with us unless they wanted a bullet to the head.” She took a moment to think before she continued. “Now just picture this, just one day you’re probably off to see your friends or read a good book, when poof. You’re in a new world, where not even your most strongest of spells can’t affect the superior race that’s… I don’t know, dogs or something. Some people can just accept it, just realize that they aren’t the only ones and that their once nice life where they don’t have to worry about anything is just taken away for the time being. But then there’s people like Stacy, who would prefer the ‘normal’ life they had. Where they didn’t have to worry about snatchers, ponies accidentally eating them, or even purposely eating them just cause they were hungry. You might think that Stacy is the only one, but there are a lot of people that would do anything to just get away from all this craziness. Heck, I even heard rumors in Canterlot that there’s a secret place in the Everfree that Tinies live in. Of course, no one has ever seen it, or more like no pony.” She realized she was getting off track and shook her head. “Anyways, I know I can’t do anything to really change your actions… but for people like Stacy, what you’re doing kind of proves that some ponies don’t really care about how tinies may feel. You didn’t even give her a chance to speak.”

“I sure hope there isn’t a secret place in the Everfree, that’s way too dangerous, I’ve heard that the creatures in there can and will rip tinies to shreds.” Twilight comments worriedly. “I get what you’re talking about, when you say that some tinies just want to get back to their normal life. If I could, I’d reverse the spell and send you all back home. However, from what I could tell, Stacy doesn’t want either life, she wants the life she had before her accident. She may have been different before it, she was probably more outgoing, but now she’s so reclusive, so pessimistic, she seems to believe that all of us are out to get her, that we’re monsters that need to be conquered otherwise we’ll take advantage of her. I know that it seems that is what I’m doing right now, that I seem like I don’t care how she feels, and of course she’ll take that to the next level saying I don’t care about any tinies at all, and that I’m a monster who’ll put tinies into my gut whenever I get the chance just like she’s said about everypony else, and Lindsey. Which is also why I didn’t give her the chance to speak, as she’d either just call me a monster even more, apologize as a means of getting me to stop, or have said nothing at all as she had been doing.” Twilight says, before sighing. “What do you think I should do? How do you feel we’ll best get through to Stacy?” She asks sincerely, laying down on the bed facing Tania.

“Princess… right now I don’t think there’s a way. She’s just angry, and it’s the kind of anger where you need to wait until she simmers down, and realizes on her own that she’s thinking irrationally. Maybe right now, you should figure out what happened by talking to Lindsey since she Rainbow, and Tyler were the last ones with her. I think it would be best for you to just leave her alone for now.”

“I think you should know Tania, this isn’t the first time Stacy’s had a falling out with, well, anyone.” Twilight replies. “I don’t think she’s ever figured out she’s thinking irrationally. All we’ve ever really seen is that we get her to calm down for a while, and it really isn’t calm just we’ve got her down to a simmer rather than a boil. I don’t know, she just seems to continue getting angrier and angrier with us just being around her, then she snaps, usually when Lindsey tries to talk some sense into her after a comment about mankind, ponykind, Lindsey, specific ponies, etcetera. I just don’t know what to do anymore, and this time she seems to have pushed Lindsey to her edge.” Twilight says. “I don’t exactly want to leave her alone, she seems to want to hurt herself or something. It’s another reason I’m keeping her inside my stomach.”

Tania mentally sighed as she felt that the princess wouldn’t let Stacy out. “Fine… but you should know that this doesn’t help anyone, you’re just redoing history that Lindsey did whenever she didn’t want to talk.” She started standing up from her spot, slipping off of the pillow and onto the mattress. “I thought you would see that what you’re doing won’t really change anything. Humans aren’t like ponies, and a little space might be enough.”

Twilight continues to lie there. “What do you mean? Lindsey made sure to talk with Stacy, all the time, the only reason Lindsey would threaten to eat her is because of Stacy’s attitude, not to silence her.” Twilight sighs. “I know humans aren’t like ponies, I should know, I’ve been one a few times. Trust me, a little space hasn’t done anything to temper Stacy, but if you want to find that out for yourself I’ll leave her here with you. You can hide or something, keep silent, and just listen to what she says to herself. I’ve heard several times how she’ll complain about how we treat her when she’s upset at us. You seem to want to find out for yourself though, so go ahead and hide real quick.” Twilight says, standing up.

Tania decided to try and see for herself as she decided to hide under the pillow of all places, not really having a lot of hiding places while she was still on the bed. She went far enough to feel the bed frame, hoping that it would be far enough to stay hidden, yet hear what’s going to happen with Stacy ‘alone’.

“Alright Tania, I’m going to let her out now. Just remember what I’ve said, she tends to blame everyone else, not herself.” Twilight says, knowing that the enchantments blocked the whole conversation between the two of them from Stacy’s ears. Twilight ignites her horn and Stacy appears in the air. Using her magic she cleans the girl off, removes the enchantments, and sets her down. “Alright Stacy, I’ve decided against keeping you in my stomach, you get your wish, I’ll leave you alone in this room.” She says, setting Stacy down on the bed, sitting her up against the pillow close enough for Tania to hear. Twilight turns away and leaves the room, shutting the door behind her.

“Freaking finally...” She grumbled, deciding to lay down on the pillow as she was only left to rant, think, and say things that people would most likely not want to hear from her. As expected, she started talking to herself on how the ponies and even Lindsey would just be okay with all of this. “Did everyone just lose their minds when they got here. I mean, seriously. Being eaten alive, this is stupid. Did some pedophile wrote a story on this? Of course those loners online might come up with this.” She continued with saying that it would be okay if some people liked it, but not almost the entire human population. “Of course on earth being eaten alive is the last thing they want, but now it seems like a regular thing here. Being in some disgusting stomach, with all those mushed up food, the terrible smell, and just the fact that you could go through the whole digestion process still alive.”

Tania kind of figured she would go on a tangent like this, rolling her eyes as she hope this wouldn’t be all that she would be talking about. Unfortunately, it was. Tania couldn’t take any more of this as she got out from under the pillow. “Okay. That’s it, I think you ranted quite enough.”

“Wh-what the-? Were you listening to me this whole time? Is Twilight in on this? I knew it was too easy for her to just give in-” Tania silenced her with a hand over her mouth… and the rest of the bottom half of her head.

“Okay, listen. I know this isn’t earth, and things are weird and unlike back at home. But that’s just the thing, this isn’t earth anymore. And some things can’t go back to the way it was.” Tania moved her hand off of Stacy’s mouth as she sat down in front of her. “Okay, you hate how you seem wrong all the time, right?”

“I’m not wrong, they’re just too dumb to-”

“Okay, I get it.” She cut her off before she started ranting again. “But just like you don’t like to sound wrong, they don’t like it when you make them sound bad. They aren’t the problem, it’s just you not accepting that what you had is gone, and that you can’t change it no matter how many times you talk down on people, or how many tears you shed.” She glanced away for a moment before she looked back at Stacy. “And I was just like you too. I didn’t like this change, I wanted nothing to do with ponies, being eaten alive or even having the risk to being snatched by somepony who doesn’t give a fuck on how I may feel.”

“...but?” Stacy already knew there was something else.

“But then I met Swiffer. She was the first pony I met. I had to since I needed an experienced worker to show me how to do my job. Of course, when I met her I was scared, quiet, and to myself. I just did my work and left to get away from her as fast as I could.” She admitted, first seeing Swiffer as a threat when they first met. “But even when I tried to ignore her, she would start a one sided conversation with me. Talking about her life out of work, the ponies and tinies she met, and even showed me some of the good places in the castle. I didn’t want to admit it at first, but I started to like hanging out with her.” She glanced away once again with a smile on her lips. “She took me everywhere around the castle, gave me some of her lunch when I forgot to bring my own, and waited until I was ready to see what this vore thing was all about. What I mean to say is that you might think that you’re always in danger, or that no one cares about you cause you’re small and defenceless. But that isn’t true. Sure, it’s in a weird and different way, but if they didn’t care about you, would Lindsey be with you all this time? Would Rainbow try to be a better pony for you? Or would Twilight actually go with the idea of you and Rainbow switching sizes? I don’t think people or ponies that were enemies would do that.”

Stacy was quiet the whole story through, still a little angry and riled up as before, but the story seemed to work as she wasn’t lashing out as of yet. “...you don’t know what I’ve been though.”

“Oh come on Stacy, you haven’t gone though a lot. Sure, you got snatched, but you aren’t the first, and you won’t be the last either.” Tania rolled her eyes as she knew Stacy was over exaggerating. “Just think on how everyone else might feel after everything you say or think or even do.” Tania decided that now she really needed time to think, being able to climb down on the quilt and went through the tiny door to give the girl some privacy.

Twilight sits down the hall, watching the door as she figured that Tania would be leaving fairly soon. She levitates Tania over to her. “So, how’d it go?” She asks, already figuring it went poorly.

“Well, you were right on the ranting stuff, but I think after the small talk we had, she might change, just a little.” She said, not noticing the center of her neck was glowing just a little.

“Wow, you just keep using your voice magic and you don’t expect it huh?” Twilight asks with a bit of a giggle. “So I guess you definitely got her thinking about things, at least a little. I guess I better teach you how to use your magic so you don’t keep accidentally mind controlling people.” Twilight picks up Tania and places her on her back. “I guess maybe we should listen in and see how she’s taken your talk.” Twilight says, approaching the door and casting a spell so they can hear Stacy.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea princess.” Tania said, not really liking to invade someone’s privacy.

“I just want to make sure that your accidental, um brainwashing, hasn’t done anything harmful.” Twilight says, partially true as she feared that without control Tania might accidentally scramble someone’s brain, and partially to see if Stacy had at least started questioning herself whether Tania’s magic had influenced it or not. “However, if you still don’t like this, I’ll take you back to the study to give you a magic lesson or two, now instead of later.”

“Y-yeah, I would like to handle this m-magic in me… I don’t even know when or how my magic grew anyways.” Tania said, rubbing her arm as she wanted to know if there was some way to undo this so her parents wouldn’t know what was happening. This was all in the dark for them, and seeing their daughter grow an inch isn’t going to help hide it.

“I don’t either.” Twilight replies. “I suppose that makes you my first tiny student. Hmm, it’s quite interesting to think that I have a student who can practice magic inside me.” Twilight comments. “First things first though, I really do think we should make sure your magic hasn’t harmed Stacy, after all, as a beginner you seem to be having unpredictable magic surges much like newborn unicorn foals.” She says casting a spell so they can hear Stacy, just incase Tania’s magic had some unintended consequences.

It was silent for some time, the only sound of movements from the tiny that was on the pillow. But after awhile, she growled a little. “I hate being wrong.” She grumbled, knowing that Tania was right about everything she said, not liking to be the wrong one or the bad guy, but knowing full well that she was. But she let out a small sigh that sounded as if she was sad. “But it’s not like it’s going to change anything… Lindsey probably doesn’t want to look at me anymore… even after I kissed her.”

Twilight immediately cancels the spell after hearing about the kiss. “Alright, guess you at least got her thinking about things, and she doesn’t seem to be negatively affected by your magic. I think we’ll go ahead and get to giving you a magic lesson, but first we should probably go check to see how Lindsey’s doing, maybe send her over to talk to Stacy.” Twilight whispers to Tania, feeling a little embarrassed for hearing something a little more personal.

“Oh, not a fan of gossiping?” Tania asked with a smirk, knowing that the princess wouldn’t go that far. “And I guess so, but I don’t know if it’s a good idea walking into the same room with a giant possibly angry human.” She said, not wanting to be one of the ‘victims’ of her anger, of course not thinking she would be that angry.

“Lindsey’s actually pretty good about controlling her anger.” Twilight replies. “I mean it can definitely seem like she’s getting carried away, but she keeps her cool. So, let’s stop by and see how she’s doing.” Twilight says, making her way around the castle toward Lindsey’s room. She stops for a moment, not sure if they’re in there but then she hears Dash’s voice as she talks to Lindsey.

“So, there really is an entire village in there after all!” They hear Dash say excitedly.

“Okay, so she’s in here.” Twilight says to Tania before opening the door and entering. “Hello Lindsey, I just got done talking with Stacy, you should probably go talk to her soon, but I want to see how you’re doing first.” Twilight says to Lindsey as she canters in.

Lindsey lets out a sigh. “I know, it’s just that sometimes it gets really tiring talking to someone who looks down at you all the time, even if you tower above them. It’s like she’s a cat, proud, aloof, and thinks you’re dirt.” She says.

Tania couldn’t help but giggle a little at the cat part, picturing Stacy with cute cat ears and a fluffy tail. “Yep. She’s a cat alright.” She agreed.

Lindsey giggles a little. “Yeah, I agree. Unfortunately she’s too cat-like. I just wish she could appreciate what I do for her, rather than focus on silly little things.” She then says, a little sadly.

“Well, I’m not sure if she knows that. From how she acted, I think she’s actually planning on moving to the village. She might’ve sounded like a little brat when Twilight talked to her, but I don’t think she said that cause she was upset. Did… did you say anything that might’ve made her think of doing that?” Tania asked, remembering the girl saying she would move in that village just to get away from it all, and that it would be a win for everyone.

“She might have pushed me passed my limits, and I said I wasn’t going to let her live at my future home here.” Lindsey replies somewhat guiltily.

“Did you really mean that?” Tania asked. “Cause if you were, I don’t think she has a reason to stay here either, since she isn’t that close to Princess Twilight or Starlight.”

Lindsey looks down, sadly. “It definitely sounded like it. I was pretty mad when I did.” She replies.

Tania started to feel a bit indecisive, she could go on Lindsey and scold her like some bad child, but seeing how Stacy sometimes acted, she could only assume that she either went too far, or Lindsey just couldn’t take another minute of her. She honestly had nothing really to say.

“Well, if you want to talk with her, she actually isn’t that far down the hall.” Twilight says. “About five doors, on this side. She’s on the bed in the room.”

“Thanks. I’ll go talk with her, see if we can fix this.” Lindsey says heading off to where Stacy is. “Alright Tania, let’s go have that magic lesson.” Twilight starts before remembering something. “Oh, Dash, where’s Tyler.”

“He’s with Starlight, though I might just go join Lindsey, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen Stacy. Besides a little while ago.” Dash says, starting to fly off after Lindsey. “Just talk, not revenge for eating me or anything.” She says to clarify, before leaving.

“Well, let’s get to my study so I can start teaching you magic.” Twilight says before teleporting the two of them into the study. “Now, to start with the basics…”

Lindsey walks into the room Stacy’s in and falls onto the bed stomach first, launching the girl into the air, and then catching her on her palms. “Hello there Stacy. We need to talk.”

All of what happened went by so quickly, Stacy didn’t even have a chance to scream in fright, the girl landing on Lindsey’s hand back first, a little surprised that it didn’t hurt. But after hearing Lindsey’s voice, she snapped out of her shock. “Oh, hi...” She mumbled, not really sounding angry or bitter, but she didn’t sound so positive either. “Here to tell me you found a house already?” She assumed.

“No. I need to apologize for snapping at you.” Lindsey says. “I shouldn’t have said that. I’m sorry, and I’m sorry that I keep threatening to eat you.” She continues, apologizing sincerely.

“It’s fine.” She looked away from her. “I should’ve seen this coming almost every time I tried to prove I was right. That I’m the only sane person on this planet that thinks all this vore stuff is ridiculous… but you don’t have to worry about me anymore.” She was hesitant on the next thing she was gonna say, but knew it had to be heard. “I’m going to move to the village anyways. Since I bring nothing but trouble and criticism… I had a feeling that I wouldn’t fit in your weird family anyways.” She couldn’t stop the tears that were blurring her vision. “You know everyone that was already here… and we just met not even three months ago. I know that I’m not close enough to be considered family, so might as well live alone… the environment that I’m used to.”

“You don’t have to Stacy. We still care about you and families do fight like that every so often. Tyler, well, he’s probably still crushing on you. I don’t know if you’re still crushing on me. I on the other hand, don’t really have anyone. So, I guess it’s not like you have to worry about another pony or something.” Lindsey replies.

Dash enters suddenly. “Or you can stay with me if you like.” Dash offers as she slowly flies in, waving at Stacy.

“I’m not doing it cause I have to. I’m doing it cause I want to.” She said. “If I say in a village, I won’t talk down on any ponies or even you. I can be alone like I wanted to be, and you can just have a nice life without me. It’s a win for everyone.” She remained facing away from the two as she wiped her eyes a little.

“Alone, with no one to help you, or to talk to, or even comfort you when you need it. Or most especially, no one to rescue you from snatchers if they get bold enough to try and raid a village. Are you sure that’s what you want?” Lindsey asks.

Stacy was hesitant in answering, but did so with another question. “Why should I worry about snatchers? You said that this is a small town, so it’s easy to notice if a snatcher is around or if anyone was missing. Besides, that’s how I lived on earth. Alone where no one can judge me, no one to bring me down cause I can’t move my legs anymore, and someplace where I can be myself and not be taken care of like some baby.”

“Yes, and no one to cheer you up when you get down, no one to help you when you need it most, no one to proofread the books you want to write.” Lindsey adds.

“You know, there’s plenty of space like that in my cloud mansion. I could even make a special room just for you, with some nice hard cloud flooring that you could use that new wheelchair for.” Rainbow Dash suggests.

‘These two are not going to let me go.’ She thought, not liking to repeat herself over and over again. She decided to just be quiet since saying something isn’t going to do anything.

Lindsey sighs. “Sorry, I should leave it up to you though. It’s your choice after all.” She says, setting Stacy’s tiny wheelchair on the ground and setting Stacy in it. “Come tell me when you’ve made up your mind and I’ll take you to a village, or Dash can I suppose.” Lindsey says, starting to walk away.

Dash stays with Stacy, ready to help if need be, even if it was just being a messenger to tell her friends that she’s moving to a village.

“You can go too Dash.” Stacy simply said, not really wanting to stay in this room any longer as she used the tiny door to leave the room, having to go through it backwards.

Dash leaves, her head held low, feeling as though she failed the tiny girl in some way. She canters off, her wings held loose in her sadness.

Stacy was now wheeling through the hallways, of course now with Lindsey going back on her word, made her indecisive. The giant woman did point out some things. Like who would be there if she had to go up some small stairs, or knowing that she can’t stay in her home forever. Before on earth she was delivered food online, but there’s no such thing as internet here, it would be a job in a half just to get stuff and come back home. But she still felt that they were better off without her, and that she wasn’t anywhere close to living under the same roof. The group known each other for years… and she was with nobody to make her a better person after the accident.

Even with Lindsey and everyone else… she was always alone.

Dash continues cantering away, making sure not to step on Stacy as she passes by. Further down the hall Lindsey is opening to her room, heading in to gather up Stacy’s stuff. She wasn’t sure what to do with the big wheelchair though, she didn’t need it after all.

Stacy was able to wheel her way to the kitchen, Looking around from her ground perspective, and feeling a little intimidated by how much bigger they were when she wasn’t being carried by Lindsey or some other pony. She rubbed one of her arm as she felt if this wasn’t in the same level, she would probably starve to death.

Spike comes whistling out of a pantry with an armload of gems and supplies for baking. He makes his way to a counter, dragging a stool by his tail. He moves it into place and climbs up onto it. He begins making his gemstone pastries.

Thankfully, Stacy was nowhere near where he was preparing some kind of gem-filled treat. She let out a small sigh as she was about to turn and wheel away.

Spike turns around and gets off the step stool, seeming to have missed something for his pastries, but he stops, noticing Stacy. “Uhm, hi there.” He says, somewhat shy around the girl, even though he is, well, dragon sized, compared to her. “Are you hungry Stacy? Do you want me to get you something?” The baby dragon asks.

“Oh, uh, n-no. I’m good.” She answered, not even looking up at him as she was still thinking about her situation.

“Um, is something wrong?” Spike asks, making sure the tiny girl is okay as she seems to be held up on something. He crouches to get more on her level and show that he’s listening.

“N-no. I mean, it’s nothing for you to worry about.” Stacy lightly backed away when he got closer.

“Oh, um, okay.” Spike replies, backing away from her a bit. “Do you want to talk about it anyway?” He asks. “Or help me make these gemstone cupcakes?”

‘I know that if I stay and help, sooner or later I’m going to be an added ingredient to it and be eaten alive… again.’ Stacy thought. “I guess I can keep you company or whatever.” She shrugged, not sure if he would be okay with that too.

“Okay, cool.” He says, carefully picking up the wheelchair and her, climbing back onto the step stool and setting her gently down on the counter. “Want me to set aside some batter for you?” He asks, thinking maybe she’d want to make a cupcake of her own.

“No. It’s fine.” She shook her head, not really in the mood for sweets at the moment.

“Oh, okay.” He replies, mixing the ingredients into the bowl, getting the batter ready. “Want a gem, or well, a shard of a gem?” He asks.

“Humans can’t eat gems. It’s like a pony trying to eat a rock.” Stacy responded.

“Well, I didn’t mean to eat, I was just wondering if you wanted to keep one.” Spike says as he starts to mix in some gemstones. “Tinies seem to really like these gems a lot like ponies do, so I was wondering if you wanted one.”

“Oh, well, I don’t know. I wasn’t really one for jewelry or gems. Besides, I bet the smallest one you have is as tall as my legs.” She said, emphasizing by lifting one of her legs a little.

“You could always look through the gem dust at the bottom of the bag, those should probably be the right size.” Spike replies. “Here, I’ll scoop some out for you.” He says, reaching into the bag and pulling out a handful of glittering dust, letting it sift out onto the counter next to Stacy, who sees a shower of small gemstones coming from the dragon’s hand.

Stacy only watched a small pile grow beside her as she wasn’t sure about the ‘gem dusts’. “It’s fine. You don’t have to offer me anything.”

“I’m not offering because I have to, but because I want to.” Spike replies as he keeps stirring the mixture. “Really, it’s fine if you take some.”

“But what am I supposed to do with them?” She asked, already having an idea to possibly sell the gem dust to the tinies in the village, but that was only if she was going to live there.

“Maybe you could get Rarity to decorate your wheelchair with it. Or maybe you could have her make a gift for a friend.” Spike suggests.

“Who’s Rarity?” She raised a brow as she had no idea who this was, most likely another pony.

“She’s the best.” Spike says, starry eyed. “She’s the prettiest pony I’ve ever seen, her mane is amazing! She’s a clothing designer and makes the best dresses in Equestria, she even makes tiny clothing.” He continues, fawning over the mare.

“Sounds like you have a thing for her.” She raised a brow at all the compliments he was giving to this pony.

Spike seems to snap out of it. “I, um, yeah.” He stutters, looking embarrassed. He starts pouring the batter into a cupcake pan.

“So, if she does clothes, then how can she add gems to my wheelchair, those are two different job types.”

“She’s done more than just clothes.” Spike says in Rarity’s defense. “She’s done all sorts of things. She could definitely make your wheelchair look great.”

‘Yeah, sure, okay.’ She thought sarcastically, deciding to keep her mouth shut for now. “Well, I don’t know how gems will make my wheelchair better. I think it would just add weight onto it.”

“Well, you could have her make a fancy dress for you, or some nice new clothes that have some gems in them.” He replies.

“Won’t clothes on gems do the same thing? And why would I need a dress?” She asked, not seeing a point in dressing pretty cause of… personal reasons.

Spike shrugs, not too sure himself. He puts the cupcakes in the oven to cook. “Maybe you want to impress somebody. Or you get an invite to the Grand Galloping Gala or something.” Spike says, thinking of something.

‘Being invited to a galla is the last thing I’ll expect.’ She thought, rolling her eyes. “I don’t think I have any of those reasons. I was only interested in one person, but they aren’t interested in girls.”

“Well, if you’re going to live with Lindsey you’ll probably being going with her and the others. She’s a noble now, so she has to show up to the Gala.” Spike says, before thinking about her other answer. “Maybe you’ll find somebody else you’re interested in.” He says with a shrug.

“No. I don't want to find anyone else… I might as well give up cause of my ‘personality’.” She said with added air quotes. “Besides, I'm thinking of just living in the village, so she can have a break from me, seeing as I don't do anything good to her.”

“Well, why don’t you do something that is good to her?” Spike asks, wondering if she ever thought of doing something nice.

“Well what can I even do?” She asked, drawing a blank on anything she could do like… this.

“Maybe a gift. Or something else she’d like.” Spike suggests. “I could help if you want.”

“I don’t think a small gift will do anyone good.” Stacy admitted, thinking it’ll be the many small things that she’ll never be able to use again.

“Are you sure? Sometimes the best things come in small packages.” Spike replies. “If you don’t try then you’ll never find out.” He says to encourage the girl. “You could always go with Tyler though, he seems to like you. He’s with Starlight Glimmer right now, talking to her and Susan.”

“Tyler isn’t someone I want to be with… I don’t go that way anyways.” She said, not seeing anything in Tyler that she wanted. “I just want to be out of the way of everyone… since I can never do anything right, apparently.”

“Well, what do you do they don’t like?” Spike asks, curiously, not knowing just how much she hated being in Equestria and around ponies, possibly even him, and that she assumed the worst with everyone.

“I don’t know.” She shrugged, looking away from the dragon. “I’m the only sane person who sees that eating people alive is weird and messed up… and they think I’m the harsh one. I just don’t see why people would just be okay with this. We weren’t made for any of this… yet everyone just accepts it like it’s nothing.”

“You’re not the only person, there are plenty of people who don’t like being eaten. That’s part of why the villages were made. There’s also plenty of ponies who don’t like eating people.” Spike replies. “There are a lot of shops and restaurants that don’t allow ponies to eat tinies because the owners don’t like to eat tinies either.”

“Well, that’s the reason why I’m thinking of just going to the village.” She admitted. “Lindsey, Tyler, and those two kids are so close, and I’m probably just an acquaintance to them.”

“So? Friendships take time, and friends fight too. Twilight and her friends haven’t and don’t always get along.” Spike replies.

“But it almost seems like we never get along...” She thought out loud, shaking her head as she feel like she doesn’t belong with them.

“Twilight and the others didn’t exactly get along too well in the beginning. It just takes time.” Spike replies. “Besides, there are plenty of times when you guys were getting along. You just sometimes get into fights about being eaten or eating people. Sometimes you also seem to fight because you don’t seem to trust anyone too easily, but those fights don’t happen all the time.”

“But they happen most of the time.” She mumbled, leaning against her wheelchair as she just didn’t know what she can do now.

“They don’t happen most of the time.” Spike replies. “You’ve just got to respect their feelings as much as they respect yours. Lindsey’s been in Equestria a long time, she was used to being eaten and now she’s capable of eating others. Cody and Daisy are practically brand new, they aren’t used to it yet, and Daisy only really likes to eat Cody because he’s her, um, brother. Tyler is brand new, he’s just really laid back, especially around people he knows. Trust me, you could be reacting even worse. There are some ponies and tinies that don’t like each other so much they stay as far away as possible. Some tinies have even started, killing other tinies and just last night some ponies.” Spike says grimly.

“Wait, what was that last part?” She asked, a little surprised on the pony killing part.

“Some tinies killed a couple snatchers, and nearly killed two noble ponies trying to get information to Celestia and Luna about the snatchers.” Spike replies grimly again.

“So I guess they aren’t part of Celestia’s snatching snatchers crew or whatever.” She assumed, knowing that Celestia wasn’t that kind of mare unless it was for drastic measures.

“No. I don’t think they knew about them, just thought they were buyers, but they hate ponies.” Spike says. “Nopony knows how they got the weapons they did, but they have them and can kill ponies with them, and they won’t hesitate to kill tinies that like ponies either. They could even be planning to kill the Princesses because of the first tasting.” He continues worriedly. “They might even come after Twilight first because our castle doesn’t have any guards!”

“And does Twilight and Rainbow know this? I mean, Dash was the first actual pony to taste a human for the first time.” She asked, now thinking on what might happen if she and everyone else here might happen to them. ‘And if they don’t hesitate to kill any humans who like ponies… Lindsey and Tania are in trouble.’ She thought, also wondering if they know too.

“I found out earlier this morning. Celestia sent a letter.” He replies, before giving her an embarrassed look. “That’s why I’m baking these pastries, to calm myself down to tell her, and Starlight and Susan. They’re in danger too. Maybe we should tell them now! Everyone in the castle could be in danger!” He exclaims fearfully, picking up Stacy and her wheelchair and rushing through the halls towards Twilight’s study and opening the door. “Twilight! Twilight! You’re in danger!” He yells as he goes in.

Twilight looks up from a book she’s been teaching Tania magic from. “What is it Spike?” She asks a little concerned.

Spike would start to explain, but all he ends up doing is making a bunch of odd noises and random hand gestures after setting Stacy down on the table. He is clearly panicking in the heat of the moment.

“Um, Stacy, you were with Spike earlier. Do you know what is freaking him out?” Twilight asks the girl, after listening to Spike for a moment.

“He got a letter from Celestia about something… bad.” She said, trying to put it down lightly before she continued. “Apparently there are some humans that are against snatchers as well… but the way they handle it isn’t like a slap on the wrist.”

“What?” Twilight asks, incredulously, having no idea what she is talking about. “Tinies are fighting back against snatchers? They handle it differently than we do? Could you tell me what’s going on, Either of you?”

Spike regains his composure a bit. “There are tinies, Twilight! Out there! Killing ponies and tinies! After you and the Princesses! Danger!” Or maybe he hasn’t regained his composure as he goes into a spotty summary of the letter from Celestia.

Twilight looks to Stacy hoping for some clarification. “There are dangerous tinies out there? They can kill ponies?” She asks incredulously, neither understanding how there could be danger from tinies or why.

“Yes, there is a group of rebel tinies that killed some snatchers. And since it’s most likely cause of the legal eating of humans, Celestia might be quick to assume that they might be after the two ponies who started this whole thing.” Stacy explained. “In other words, they might be after you and Rainbow Dash next. And if they can kill two professional snatchers, I don’t think they’ll have a problem with a bookworm and a pegasus that sleeps half of the day. Especially if those snatchers were perhaps a unicorn, pegasus, or both. I mean, each of them.”

“What?!” Twilight exclaims, her face draining of color. “Th-they killed snatchers! Th-they might be after Rainbow Dash and me?!” She continues worriedly, backing off. “Then that means. That means they’ll come to the castle and!” Twilight doesn’t finish as she takes off to warn everyone in the castle and her friends. Spike chases after her, asking if he should prepare a letter to Celestia, leaving Stacy and Tania alone in the study.

Tania was also in shock over the idea, but the first thing that came to mind was Blueblood and Swiffer. If those tinies caught the first shrunken pony, who knows what they might do to him. But of course, Twilight was gone before she could ask for a lift. “T-tell me that isn’t true.” She lightly begged, already shaking like a leave as she fell to her knees in front of her and grabbed her shoulders. “T-tell me that tinies a-aren’t going to k-kill the princesses.” She could already imagine her best friend gone, and Blueblood taken away from her.

“Well, real or not, I don’t think Celestia is going to put this aside.” Stacy said, not bothering in just being blunt and careless. “Besides, they’re tinies, it’ll take months for them to come from Canterlot to Ponyville, it’s not like they have steeds or anything.”

“B-but we’re in as much danger as Twilight and Rainbow is!” She said. “Th-they could get Swiffer, and Lindsey. And… and Daisy! They don’t like ponies, and Lindsey likes ponies too. Do they kill tinies that like ponies?” She started to ramble as she clung onto Stacy, the crippled girl not being able to really back away as she was stuck on the table with her. “We have to run away! Why don’t we go to the Crystal Empire? It’s not really cold up north. Or maybe the Badlands, it can’t get any worse than our own kind set up to kill us! Or maybe their afraid of dragons. I mean, who wouldn’t be afraid of giant, fire breathing-”

“Smack!”

Tania was cut off with a red hand mark on her cheek. “Get a hold of yourself, woman!” Stacy shouted, moving Tania’s hands off of her, but not letting go of her wrists. “We aren’t moving to another state. Don’t you trust your friends enough to believe that they can handle themselves!?”

“B-but the t-tini-”

“They aren’t here now! These are just assumptions, they might not know who Rainbow or Twilight is. Before they get here, Twilight might already be ready for them. They are just tinies like you and me.”

There was nothing but silence between the two, Tania still having some tears going down her cheeks, but she wasn’t freaking out anymore. It seemed that literal slap back into reality got her mind back on track. After a minute or five, Tania spoke up.

“Y-you’re right… I’m sorry. I… I’m just so scared. Wh-what if they take Blueblood, or k-kill Swiffer and Daisy just cause their p-ponies?” She admitted, sniffling as she didn’t want anything bad happen to anyone.

“I think Twilight thought of them too. Worse comes to worse, we might be taken someplace safer. But that’s only if Twilight thinks this might be too dangerous.”

Tania only nodded, before she slipped her hands away, and rested her head on Stacy’s lap. Stacy let out a small sigh, before she slightly moved Tania’s hair away from her face, knowing that the girl just needed some comfort after hearing the news of possible danger...
