As the sun rises, Gel sits up, instinctively reaching for her journal. ...I really have to consider sleeping in...especially with all that happened yester...day... She pauses, blinking at this. ...that's...strange...I can remember everything from yesterday... She opens up the book, looking through all the details there. ...yeah, everything...I can't believe it...my memory's fine again! She squeals in excitement, hugging the book close to her chest. This is just fantastic!
As she has this realization, images start flooding her mind. One after the other, like a movie played at ultra fast-forward, they flicker in and out before she can even process them. As more and more pile up in her head, the pressure of so many things at once starts to press on her brain. Still they come, they press down on her consciousness, all trying to get in at once as even more come in. As the pressure mounts even further, Gel lets out a scream before passing into blissful dreamless unconsciousness.
The changeling slowly opens her eyes, letting her glassy gaze move about the room. She doesn't speak, doesn't even think as she takes in her surroundings.
Rhino is at her side, replacing the cool damp towel on her forehead. The pets are at the foot of the bed, looking on. The stallion notices as she opens her eyes, his expression anxious, but his tone soft. "Love? Can you hear me?"
"...end the senseless hate..."
His eyebrows knit worriedly. "Love? What do you mean?"
She sits up, shaking her head. "...m-my dad's last words...'end the senseless hate'... I remember everything I’ve ever forgotten..." She looks up at him, frowning slightly. "...I...I think he meant the distrust...between ponies and changelings..."
Rhino gently pushes her back down into a prone position with a hoof. "Woah there, lie back down, just in case you're still a little weak. Now, why would your dad say something like that? I'm not saying it's bad, it's just very... well, let's just say I guess I know where you get it from now..."
"...it really is...maybe the first step is...to get ponies to be more open-minded?" She hugs him close, nuzzling him back. "...oh, yeah...on a related subject, I forgot to mention...Twilight is making a changeling detector..."
He flinches. "Oh dear... that's not good... Knowing her reputation, she'll probably get it working, though, I guess she'll never know unless she actually has a changeling to test it on. Regardless, maybe it's best that you minimize your time at the library from now on... one of the worst things that could happen would be you being exposed before we're ready." He shakes his head. "As for what the first step would be... do you realize what a massive thing this would be? I mean, accepting one changeling would be difficult... but getting forgiveness for an entire species? This is big love..." he raises a hoof to his head, "I... I don't even know what to say..."
"...then...I guess we'll have to work on that first step, first..." She taps her chin, quietly thinking. "...I don't know...what I do know is that I'd like to have a job, soon...but nothing in this town seems to work for me..."
Rhino puts a hoof to his chin. "Well, I might have an idea on that... We can always come back to the previous subject another time. Anyway, well, maybe I can have you work with me?"
She blinks, looking up at him. "...a-are you sure? I-I mean, your co-workers wouldn't be upset?"
He tilts his head. "Why would they be upset? They like you, they know I like you. You seem like you would be able to pick it up quickly. Lastly, there are three ponies working at the clinic, total. Hay, you've seen that it's just me in the mornings. If anything, we could use more staff, we just don't like to advertise it because we do well with what we have."
She sighs softly, holding him close. "...you have no idea what that means to me..."
***
The pony and changeling happily sigh as they cuddle on the stallion's bed after a nice lunch. The pets have all crashed on the couch downstairs for their usual post-food naps. All-in-all, this could be considered a lazy day for them. Gel simply wants to relax around the house after running around all the previous day and her little mental overload this morning. Rhino, being the laid-back pony he is, is all too willing to join her.
...I'm glad we have some alone time, love... She giggles, happily cuddling closer to him. ...I needed to have some time alone with you...
He chuckles, his laugh rumbling in his chest to her through their entwined bodies. What, did you miss me? He kisses her forehead. Not that I mind of course, if you did.
Of course I missed you. She looks up at him, playfully pouting. Why wouldn't I, after hardly spending any time with you the past two days?
He smiles and kisses her pouting lips, thinking in a playful tone. Yes, shame on things like work keeping us apart... He looks down. Good thing we have team players like the bed here.
She grins, grabbing him and rolling so she's on top of him. ...good thing...because I'm not planning on letting you out of this room until dinner... Her eyes narrow slightly as one of her hooves draws little circles in his fur. ...you see, I have a plan for us...it was supposed to be for your birthday, but...well, we all know how that turned out... She frowns, looking down from where she's sitting on his lap.
He boops her nose with a hoof. Hey, you know how I feel about you getting sad.
***Warning, Sensual Scene***
She looks down at him, a glimmer in her eyes. ...maybe I want you to cheer me up... She slowly grinds her hips against his, leaning down so her face is mere inches above his. ...maybe I could convince you to wear that coat of yours...while I cheer you up...
He shivers. Well, I don't think you'll have to work very hard to convince me... He wraps his hooves around her and brings her into a kiss. Let's see if I can start with cheering you up... He continues kissing her, slowly becoming more passionate, avoiding her fangs purely out of reflex now.
She smirks, pulling out of the kiss momentarily to nip his neck. ...you're doing quite well with that, love... She resumes the kiss, continuing to gyrate atop his lap.
Inevitably, his pride begins to make itself known due to her actions. The slowly stiffening rod scrapes her chitin as she grinds. At the same time, Rhino's tongue asks if it's partner was home, Gel's mouth muscle responds and the two begin their dance.
She breaks the kiss, panting for breath. ...so, love...what would you like me to do? She smiles, giving him a lidded look. ...I'm yours to do what you want with, this afternoon...
He shifts uncomfortably as he lies on his back. Love... you know I'm not really good at being... well, assertive in these situations... He averts his eyes. It just seems... selfish... Let me just put on the coat like you wanted...
She sighs, rolling off of him. Of course, this leads to her falling to the floor, flat on her back. "Oof!' She slowly stands up, shaking her head. ...well...that could've gone better...
He is instantly at her side as he slips on the coat. Are you alright, Gel? He looks over head and runs his hoof along her back. Anything hurt?
She pulls her wings close, grimacing. I-I'm fine. Really. She moves to walk around him, blushing softly. ...I can't let this get in the way...and I forgot he can read my mind. Fuck.
He narrows his eyes and grabs her gently but firmly in his magic. I heard that. He lays her stomach down on the bed. Let me see what's wrong.
She groans, carefully extending her left wing. ...really...i-it's nothing...just some mild pain...
He carefully starts running over the base of her wing. Where exactly is the pain? He keeps his touch gentle as he works.
As he reaches the middle of her wing, she yelps and retracts it, blushing even more. ...um...I-I'm ticklish?
He straddles her in order to keep her still. Are you sure? That yelp sounded a little off... He reaches for the wing to gently extend it again.
She grits her teeth, refusing to make a sound. ...i-it's nothing...p-please, just leave it alone... She squirms underneath him, trying to pull her wing away.
He pulls his hooves away. Ok... I won't force you into anything... He sits back down with his ears pulled back. He gingerly places a hoof on her back and starts to rub. Is this okay?
She sighs softly, starting to relax. ...that feels nice...thank you...
He still looks subdued as he continues rubbing her back. Sorry for hurting you... I just thought you were being stubborn through pain...
...well...that's sort of true... She looks over her shoulder at him, clearly embarrassed. ...I was trying to get you to...be more assertive...it sort of worked... She giggles, shaking her flanks at him. ...you got on top of me, after all...
He blushes as he realizes their positions, as well as his pride barely out of its sheath. Oh... I umm, I suppose I did... He stays quiet a moment, unsure what to say. So... do you like the coat?
Oh, I love it... She grins, moving her tail to tickle at his stomach. ...Doctor Rhino...say...I think I have something you could help me with... She winks at him. ...if you catch my drift...
He blushes even harder as he realizes what she is doing. O-oh... "Umm...what seems to be the trouble?"
She curls her hooves up underneath her, instinctively putting on a shy persona. "...D-Doctor...c-could you please take a l-look at my..." She trails off, too embarrassed to say it. "...i-it's warm and wet..."
He slowly de-mounts her, her tail spring up as he does so. His face burns as he lays down behind her. He clears his throat to hide his nervousness. "Are there any other symptoms you can tell me?"
"W-well..." Her tail flicks as she looks back at him, blushing brightly, her treasure glistening from her arousal. "...i-it's really...s-sensitive..."
He looks on, entranced by her now visible treasure. "You don't say..." His nose eagerly takes in her scent as he raises a hoof. "Tell me... how does it feel when I do... this?" He strokes slowly down the part of her that is just to the side of her slit.
She coos softly, her rump moving against his hoof on instinct. "...i-it feels...absolutely amazing..."
His shaft twitches at her noises as he forces himself to maintain a professional demeanor. "And this?" He takes his other hoof and runs it down her outer lips.
She cries out in pleasure, straining to raise her rump for him. "...yes...oh, yes...so good..." She blinks, her face burning bright blue from her own actions. "...s-so...w-what do you think it is, Doctor?"
Her steadily rising rump forces him to stand up to keep level with it. "Well, in my professional opinion... you my dear, are aroused." And frankly, so am I...
"A-aroused?" She squirms under his gaze, accidentally brushing her tail across his nose. "...w-what can I do about it?"
His eyes flutter from the swish of her tail. "W-well, usually... you either wait it out... or you satisfy it... either yourself or have someone else do it for you..."
"...Doctor...c-could you please...s-satisfy it?" She bites her lip, letting her tail flag high, draping over her back. "...I-I can't do it, myself...a-and I don't think I can bear it, much longer..."
His eyes widen as he forces his voice to be steady. "There are a... variety of techniques one could use... There are those I used earlier..." He rears up and places his hooves on her flanks to steady himself. He bends his knees so that he leans over her back to get closer to her ear. "Are there any others you've heard about?"
She trembles underneath him, looking over her shoulder at him. "...w-well...m-maybe you could...m-mount me..." ...with a minor modification, of course?
"That... would certainly do the trick..." He simply adjusts his hooves slightly and he is in the proper position. His shaft lies against her treasure, the tip poking past her teats. Modification?
Just this. She squeezes her legs together, effectively locking them around his length. "...um...just...do what feels natural?"
Rhino swallows before pulling back and pushing forward once. This one stroke shows that in this position, he rubs the entirety of her slit, between her teats, and all the flesh in between. Her legs locking around him also create a constant pressure as well as keeping his pride from going anywhere they don't want it to go. He goes in and out once more, his breath tickling her ear. Wow...
She groans softly, feeling so much pleasure from that one movement. ...that's right, love...just like that...
He pumps again in response to her groan. His hips slap against her own as he increases speed. His pride stays slick from her leaking juices. He leans down and licks her neck as they continue.
She begins to moan, losing herself in a sea of ecstasy. "...yes...m-more...p-please..." Her hips begin to move in time with his, pushing back with every thrust forward.
"With... pleasure..." He pushes in and pulls out faster and faster, slowly increasing the force behind it. He starts to bend his hind legs as he pulls out and straightens them when he goes in, pushing into her underbelly and grinding against it.
She cries out as his sudden force causes her to rapidly reach her peak. "...I-I'm almost there..." Her legs tighten around him as that familiar coil tenses in her belly.
He increases his efforts, his own release approaching, though not quite as fast. With bend and straightening his knees, her back end is starting to be literally lifted by his thrusts. He legs swing on the upper peaks of his grinds against her sensitive flesh.
She throws her head back, her mouth open in a silent scream of pleasure as she hits it. Her juices squirt out onto his shaft, soaking it even as her legs squeeze him even more.
Unfortunately, the extra pressure from her legs combined with the lubrication, causes him to slip out out her leg lock. As he slips out, she starts to fall to the bed with him supporting hr back half. Likewise, he begins to fall forward without her to lean on. The result of this is that his pride finds its way quickly into her treasure, stopping as it hits a barrier a few inches in.
She yelps, forcing herself to stay completely still. R-Rhino! W-what did you... She looks over her shoulder at him, eyes wide in shock. ...y-you almost...
He backs out quickly, laying down on his stomach. I am so so sorry, I did not mean to do that! Everything just slipped and the next thing I know... that happened! Are you okay?
She tenderly places a hoof on her flank, wincing slightly. "...I-I think I'm fine...just...s-startled me..." She lays there for a few more moments before turning away, blushing bright blue. "...I-I don't think I'll be moving for a while..."
He crawls up next to her. "What do you mean? Is this a call back to when you said you wouldn't let me leave the room until dinner?"
"...n-not really..." She looks back at her hind legs, embarrassed. "...m-my legs aren't responding, at the moment..."
"Ah... I have heard of that happening..." He thinks a moment before looking at her. "I think if I get the blood flowing and the muscles unclenched they should get feeling back fairly quickly... would you like me to try?"
"...if you would, please..." She sighs, resting her head on the bed. "...I-I'd greatly appreciate it...a-and maybe I could return the favor sometime...Doctor..." She giggles, pointing to the coat still on him.
He blushes. "I'd umm, I'd like that..." He stands up, his length hanging below him quite obviously, but apparently forgotten for the moment by its owner. Rhino walks back behind Gel and sits down. He puts both his hooves on one of her thighs and starting a crude massaging motion up and down it.
She coos and closes her eyes, happy to feel him massaging her. "...that's really good..." She peeks one open, a small smirk on her lips. ...I wonder... Her horn discretely lights up.
He doesn't notice her horn, focused as he is on making her feel better. He switches to her other thigh and starts to repeat the process he performed on her other one, hsi large hooves working as well as they can into the muscles below the hard chitin.
She giggles, trying to pull away but unable to at the moment. "D-Doctor! I-I'm ticklish, there!" Even as she says this, her magical aura slowly starts to form around his length, doing nothing but existing at the moment.
He grins. "Well the, I guess when you're able to pull away, that means you've got the ability to move your legs back." He really gets into the massage, working into the muscles below the surface.
She laughs, her forehooves clawing at the covers even as her hind legs just stay there. She shakily solidifies her aura, starting to stroke it along his pride as a retaliation.
His body stiffens as he feels her magic. He smiles playfully. "Ah ah ah, if this is the ticklish spot then this must be the other one..." He moves one hoof to the mirroring spot on her other leg even as his first one continues on the ticklish one.
She gasps, her body torn between the two responses. The result is a high squeal of ecstasy, even as her magic becomes firmer and faster. I-I won't...lose this race...
He grunts as he works her legs. Oh, now squealing is just cheating... you know how that gets to me... His grips unintentionally tighten as they move up and down her.
...i-it's not like I can help it... She looks over her shoulder at him, flicking his nose with her tail. ...starting to get feeling back...so we best make this count... She grins before a soft moan escapes her lips, her magic spreading down his shaft and to the orbs underneath, tenderly caressing them as she works his stallionhood.
Well, I guess it would be good for us both to be fresh for the next round... He works her legs as he has been, but doesn't resist the mounting pressure in his loins. He grunts as she moves her magic. Not much farther... but... won't I just make a mess on your back?
...I don't mind, love...and, to be honest... She giggles, giving him a lidded gaze. ...I actually welcome it...
Well, I guess it isn't that much different that our stomachs... He grits his teeth as a few pulses go through his pride. Almost... He presses both of her sensitive spots at once again.
She squeals once more, her hips reflexively pushing back towards him. ...y-you're really a natural at this... She squeezes his rod twice before stroking it even faster, a little faster than they was going earlier.
He doesn't respond to her thought, as that last squeal of hers was what he needed to push himself over the edge. As her strokers speed up, he growls and begins to release. His seed shoots out of his length in waves as it twitches. After a time, the flow stops and he breathes heavily in the afterglow while his pride waits to see if it will be needed again.
She giggles, shaking her hips at him. "...did the view do that for you, Doctor?" She winks before realizing what she did. "...oh, hey...I can move my legs again!"
He smiles. "Excellent. Of course, now the question is: What are you going to do with this newly rediscovered movement?"
"This." She flips over and wraps her legs around his head, pulling him into the valley between her teats. She smirks, looking down at him. "...what do you think of that?"
He takes a moment to collect himself from the rapid movement. He looks up, his eyes remaining on her teats a moment before he looks at her face and gives her a cheeky smile. "Well, I'm happy I get to see your eyes the whole time again."
She sticks her tongue out before letting go, carefully getting off the bed. "...well...that was really nice, love..." She nuzzles his cheek, giggling softly. "...it makes me wonder what we'll do for my own birthday..."
He blinks rapidly at the sudden change of attitude. "Wait, what? Is that it?" He blushes heavily as he stands up on the bed. "I mean you said... And then I said... I mean... Is that the end?"
She looks over her shoulder at him, flicking her tail slightly. "...oh? Did you want something, Doctor?" She slyly smiles, giving him a lidded gaze. "...something...specific?"
He seems to be fighting himself as he shrinks back a moment before straightening up and nodding. "Well, I don't know if I have... Anything specific in mind yet... But perhaps it's time we discussed payment?"
She tilts her head, looking up at him with wide eyes. "...payment? B-but...I don't have any bits on me..."
He walks over and nuzzles her. "I never said anything about bits... besides..." He walks back to the bed and slowly crawls onto it, offering her a quick view of his pride before laying on his stomach. "I'm sure we can figure something out."
The changeling blushes brightly, her tail starting to rise on its own. "...um...o-okay, Doctor..." She slowly approaches him, stopping at the foot of the bed and nervously shuffling her hooves. "...w-what did you...h-have in mind?"
"Well, as the patient, you do have your choice of payment. Why don't you start with a down payment and we can discuss other options or continuing that one." He lets his eyelids drop as be smiles at her.
She gulps, moving forward and shyly kissing him, really unsure as to what he'd like her to do. She gently places a hoof on his shoulder, her eyes drifting closed as the kiss begins to deepen.
As they kiss, he gently grabs one of her hooves with one of his own and guides her onto the bed. When she settles down into a prone position on her stomach, mirroring him, he entwined his tail in her own, giving it a playful tug once it's secure.
She squeaks, breaking the kiss to turn her head away in embarrassment. "...w-was that alright? O-or did you...w-want more?"
He just smiles as he brings her gaze back to him with a guiding hoof. "And what exactly would you do if I said I wanted more?"
She smiles softly, leaning forward and tenderly nuzzling his cheek. "...I would ask...w-what, exactly, you want more of..." She bites her lip, her cheeks flushed bright blue.
"Well, I would think that is obvious..." He lies down, bringing her with him so that they are both lying on their sides, front to front. "...I want more... of you." He plants a light kiss on her neck.
She gasps before happily leaning her head back, allowing him better access to her neck. "...oh, Doctor...I-I'll gladly give myself to you..." She carefully wraps her forelegs around his neck and plants a kiss on his forehead, just below his horn. "...every part of me..." She giggles, moving one of her hindlegs over his hip and pulling him closer.
He snakes his forelegs around her back so that she can't back away as he continues planting his lips slowly down her neck. "I'm honored to hear that..." The two are almost touching now, there is only a small space between them. His pride, that he hasn't given a thought to for a bit, remains at attention, feeling its time will come soon enough. Rhino bares his teeth and gives a gentle nibble when he reaches the bottom of her neck.
She whimpers softly, her hips closing the distance and grinding against his. "...p-please...I-I can't take the teasing anymore..." She looks up at him, eyes wide and pleading.
He looks down at her with half-lidded eyes and a smirk. "Oh? And what exactly were you expecting to happen?" He leans down closer. "Tell me..." He kisses the tip of her nose.
She whines, biting her lip quietly. "...um...I-I was hoping..." She turns away, a small frown on her lips. ...what am I thinking? I can't ask him to do that...not to mention how much it hurt when he just bumped my hymen... She sighs, her ears flattening against her head. "...n-never mind..."
He nibbles the end of one of her ears gently. "Now now, no secrets..." He looks her in the eyes with his own understanding ones. "As your doctor," And coltfriend. "you know you are able to tell me anything." He smiles reassuringly.
She gulps, focusing her wavering gaze on him. "...I-I...w-wish to offer you my...v-virginity..." She blushes brightly, her eyes quickly turning away as soon as she finished her piece. "...I-I mean...I-I know it will hurt...b-but...I-I trust you..." She closes her eyes, bracing herself for whatever might happen.
His eyebrows shoot up as his character shatters. "G-Gel... but... we said..." He leans backwards, trying to recover after this little bomb she dropped. "I mean... You're sure...? This is a really big deal..."
She bites her lip, thinking about it for a bit. "...I...I don't know...I want you to have it...b-but I know you...w-want that moment to be special..." She blushes brighter than before, looking up at him nervously. "...i-it's up to you...d-do you want to...a-accept my present? O-or...d-do you want to have it later?"
Rhino looks away as he ponders this choice. His lower head voices its obvious vote, but its bias is well known. The stallion looks up and down her body once more before sighing and looking into her eyes. "I think... I'm going to take a raincheck. While it would make one of the, if not the greatest present, you're right. I do feel like saving that special moment, for an equally special time."
She sighs softly, kissing him. "...I'll stand by that..." She smiles, looking up at him with a gleam in her eye. "...but I hope you'll make that night memorable..." She winks before nestling her head under his chin.
He whispers into her ear. "You'll never forget it..." His whisper turns into a lick and then a nibble of her ear. "Of course... I plan on making every session memorable... Including this one."
She shivers but turns to look at him, coyly smiling. "...oh? And how do you plan on doing that, love?"
He smirks. "Well, details are sketchy, but I'm going to end this... with a scream." He locks his forelegs around her and aggressively locks lips with her.
Her question gets lost in the moment as she eagerly kisses him back, pulling him just as tightly to herself as he does her. She opens her mouth, her tongue pressing against his lips tentatively.
His mouth opens and his tongue darts out, quickly wrapping around hers. His hooves squirm against her back, one of them tilting upward so that it is stroking her mane. At the same time, his tail fidgets also, providing a small constant pull on hers.
She squeals, blushing brightly from his tail pulling. ...n-not fair...would you like it if I did this? She immediately places a hoof on top of his head, stroking his mane firmly.
Immediately, the rest of his muscles start to move sluggishly. I... like that... but in a... different way... He manages to gather enough strength to roll the two of them so he is on top. Keep doing that... and I'll collapse onto you... your move...
She smirks, removing her hooves from his head. ...brilliant move...just one flaw... Her tail whips up and around the base of his pride, the silken membranes gripping him tightly. ...you left yourself exposed... She winks, sticking her tongue out at him.
He immediately envelopes her mouth and tongue with his own. Well my dear... you do seem to appreciate me being a little more assertive right now... so I see your tail, and raise you some magic. His horn light up as two points of pressure appear on opposite sides of her slit.
She squeaks, surprised at his assertiveness. ...o-okay, you win... She breaks the kiss and looks up at him, panting softly. ...w-what...would you like me to do? And don't be afraid to ask... She giggles, her eyes gaining a lidded quality to them. ...for you, I'll do anything...
His own eyes go half-lidded as he sees her with her mane spread out underneath her like he enjoys. He slowly moves one of his hooves down her body. Alright then... don't hold anything back. His hoof reaches her teats and lightly flicks them a few times before going even further south.
She gasps, her back arching, pressing herself further against his hoof. Oh! Her tail, still around his length, clenches tighter in response to the stimulation.
He grunts through their still-locked lips as she squeezes. His hoof is now well slick with her juices. He runs it up and down the center of her slit, barely applying pressure.
She moans, her hips starting to move of their own accord. ...p-please...m-more... She deepens the kiss, trying to entice him into doing just that.
He obliges. They lay there, him with one foreleg underneath her back, his lips on hers, and one hoof on her other set of lips. All the while, she squirms from his touch. He puts a little more pressure to his hoof so that it dips slightly in her petals now. Nothing too far, but enough for her to feel the edge of his hoof in her.
She cries out softly, bucking up against him. ...yes...oh, yes... Her head rolls back, her tongue lolling out from the pure pleasure that he's giving her. ...y-your hooves are amazing...
His length twitches heavily from him watching her react, pulling at her tail as it does so. Atta girl... He kisses her throat as she leans back, his hoof going slightly deeper into her and swirling around inside.
She only becomes louder, more needful. ...R-Rhino...I-I'm... Her eyes squeeze shut, and she bites her lip, attempting to keep herself from going over the edge.
He only smiles. I did warn you love... I was going to end this... with a scream... He suddenly removes his hoof from her slit and presses down on the small nub just above it. At the same time, he uses his other hoof to pull her head back toward his and uses a kiss to muffle what is to come.
She screams in ecstasy, though the noise is stifled by his lips. At the same time, she hits her climax, her juices squirting out and drenching the sheets. As soon as it's over, she collapses onto the bed, panting for breath, her mind shorted out from the bliss.
He smiles down fondly at her. "You know... you are without a doubt, the best patient I have ever had." He lies down next to her and cradles her in a soft hug as she recovers.
She smiles wearily up at him, leaning up to touch noses only to nuzzle his cheek. "...t-thank you, Doctor..." She blinks, shaking her head slightly in confusion. "...y-you're going to wash that before work tomorrow, right?"
He chuckles. "Of course, love. Same as I have to change the sheets so we can go to sleep tonight."
***End of Sensual Scene***
***
Time passes and night falls over the town. Unbeknownst to the residents, a new visitor approaches. A blue pegasus stallion with a white mane lands just inside the forest borders. A moment later, in a green flash of flame, there stands a changeling. He stretches, having been disguised for the entirety of his journey. The words of his commanding officer echo in his mind, literally, seeing as the officer in question was repeating them to him over the hive mind. 'Find Colonel Gel and retrieve her report. Do not be discovered.' The drone nods before assuming his disguise once more and finding a nearby tree to wait until morning so that he could more easily spot his target.
