Life and Death

Chapter 11

Now if you were expecting a “scene” between Light Bulb and Trixie, I have two things to say. “TROLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!” and “U mad bro?” I’m going to keep stuff like that separate from this story.
Light Bulb woke up the next day in Trixies bed, thinking about the night before. Trixie woke up shortly after, “Good morning, did you enjoy yourself?” Light responded, “Yes I did, and I didn’t know it was possible to use an umbrella like that.” Trixie giggled, “I’ve learned a lot in my travels.” Light replied “So it would seem. I need to get to the library and do some research on message therapy.” Trixie questioned “Why are you interested in that?” Light replied “I’m thinking of getting a job at the spa as a message specialist.” Trixie, confused, asked “Is that your special talent?” Light replied “I have many talents.” Trixie asked “Show me what you know.” Light dispelled the disguise surrounding her horn, becoming Star Light, she Told Trixie of her name change and that holding the spell over horn was becoming a bit taxing. Trixie said “Understandable, any spell being held over ones horn can be draining.” Star told Trixie, “Lie down on the bed, and let me take care of you.” (get your heads out of the troughs) Trixie complied, lying down on the bed on her belly. Star began rubbing Trixies back, applying gentle pressure at the proper points. Trixie began groaning slightly as stress began to melt off her bones and out of her muscles. Star started to apply gentle pulses of magic to the points, increasing the amount of pleasure Trixie was getting from the experience. Her groans started getting louder. Star held off for a second to advise Trixie to renew the soundproofing spell that she put up last night, she did and Star continued. Trixie groans letting louder and louder until she screamed in pleasure, her body fell limp as her whole body relaxed itself. Star jokingly asked “Do you enjoy yourself?” Trixie barely managed to reply, “That felt great.” Star giggled and left Trixie to recover.
As she walked through the town back to the library, she began to notice more stallions than she would have otherwise. Little did she know, but being under the influence of gender swap spell doesn’t just alter appearance, it changes the ponies entire physiology and has an effect on the mind of the pony in question, not only causing them to act like the gender. They, for all intents and purposes, become the said gender. She wouldn’t know any of this, only having read the spell and not the warnings associated with it. She took notice of a Dark Pegasus stallion and walked over to him, she said “Hello, What’s your name?” The Stallion looked at her, and became slightly nervous; he replied “My name is Thunder Lane. What’s yours?” She replied “My name is Star Light.” He asked her “Are you related to Dashing Light?” She replied cryptically, “In a way.” They spoke with each other for a while, and eventually Thunder asked “We should get together again sometime.” Star replied, “We should, next week?” He agreed and Star left him at the shop.
She got back to the library, and Twilight asked “Where were you last night?” Star replied “I got caught up at Trixies?” Twilight asked “What were you doing at Trixies?” She sniffed the air. “Oh, I, ummm……” Star spoke up “She said it was payment for helping her out with her show at the party a few days ago.” Twilight blushed slightly, “I’m preparing a report for Princess Celestia about what happened, as well as a research report about the creatures.” Star asked “Are they sentient?” Twilight replied “I don’t think so. When separated from magic it seems to act like an animal, acting on basic instincts. At least that’s what I can determine from the one live subject I have. I need to ask you some questions about your experience with the creatures when they first appeared in our world.” Star agreed and spent the next while answering questions about the creatures based on what happened during the party.
“Spike, I have a letter for the Princess.” He came from the kitchen, got the letter from Twilight, inhaled and blew a stream of green fire onto the letter and it dissolved into a stream of magic that flew off to the princess. And almost immediately the Princess replied.
To Twilight Sparkle
I am on my way to investigate this creature you spoke of in your report, as well as question this “Dashing Light” He may well have something to do with the arrival of these creatures. Keep him at the library.
From Princess Celestia
Twilight read the letter again, before handing it over to Star Light. “I guess I had better get prepared.” Star said. She dispelled the disguising spell around her wings before performing the gender swap spell. Dashing was sitting on his rear, rubbing his head with his hoof when Princess Celestia flashed into existence in the library in a flash of light. Twilight and Dashing both bowed in respect. She motioned for them to rise and they did. “I read your report, and wish to see this creature.” Twilight nodded “It’s tied up down in the basement.” Celestia looked at Dashing, “I’ll talk to you later.” Dashing took a step back sheepishly, smiling innocently. They spent about 3 hours inspecting the creature and the bodies of the other 2 before coming back up from the basement. “I see, and you have no idea how they were receiving their commands?” Twilight replied “None, any link to magic the controller had, was shut off.” Celestia looked at Dashing, and said to Twilight “I need to speak with him alone.” Twilight replied “alright, I’ll go speak with Rarity. I need to ask her about a few things.” As soon as Twilight left the library, Celestia put up a soundproofing spell and another spell that blacked out the windows.
Celestia put on a serious face and asked “Who are you?” Dashing replied “My name is Dashing Light; I am an Alicorn of unknown age and origin.” She sighed “I want the truth.” He replied “That is the truth as I see it.” He really was telling most of the truth and Celestia knew it. “You need to tell me everything so I can determine if you are the cause of the creatures appearance.” Dashing relented and told her everything. How he had been injured in a fight, the strange glowing being of light, and even of his visit from Luna.
After a few more questions, Celestia asked “So Tim…” Dashing interrupted, “Sorry for interrupting, but can you please call me Dashing? From what I understand, I can never go back.” Celestia nodded, “As you wish, Dashing would you like a cup of tea?” Dashing replied “Yes, I would love a cup of tea right now.” Celestia noticed a strange smell in the air. “Did you and Twilight……” Dashing asked “what? Did we wha……..oh, OH, nonononononononononono. It was somepony else and with me. I haven’t taken a shower yet.” He visibly blushed at the thought of Celestia asking Twilight about it. “She’d probably have a heart attack if you asked her about it.” Celestia nodded and replied “Indeed she would, I won’t bring it up to her.” Two cups of tea floated into the main room, and they began to sip on the tea, when Dashing remembered a bit of knowledge he had gleaned from Celestia during their time together. Using a form of innate magic granted to him via his cutie mark, it allows him to tap into the knowledge and memories of those around him at will. He doesn’t like to use it. But, He wanted to see what she looked like when highly surprised. He waited until she was taking a sip of tea and asked “I heard something in the winds about a Prince Greyscale.” Celestias eyes went as wide as dinner plates and a spray of tea flew from her mouth, “How did you hear of that name?” dashing replied “I heard it in the winds.” Celestia raised her brow, and then shook her head. “I’m not going to push the issue, but don’t bring that up again.” Dashing replied “As you wish.”
