On Velvet's request, Rainbow Dash followed quite meekly her downstairs, until the old mare returned to the entrance hall.

"Just a minute," said Velvet, as she moved towards the big and old wardrobe near the entrance door. "I have to take something for you."

The mare strongly wished to attack Twilight Velvet, and force the sham to stop dead in its tracks, even if she had agree to satisfy Velvet's completely non creepy desires. However, something back in Rainbow's head told her that attempting to fight Velvet was like trying to brawl one’s self image in a mirror: it was stupid, pointless, and likely to hurt. The mare tried several times to get the voice to shut up, but nothing could do the trick, and thus, she was forced to just stare at Velvet while she was shuffling items in the wardrobe.
Not too later on, Velvet terminated her quest for whatever she was looking for.  She levitated the item with magic, then looked back at Rainbow Dash, revealing the object in the process.

The magenta eyes of Rainbow Dash widened, and she backed slightly.
That item was a carpet beater.

"That's what you get for disobeying me," said Velvet sternly, as she walked towards Rainbow Dash, and the blue mare just stared at her.

Rainbow Dash now urged to fight back, and beat Twilight’s mother down. But at the same time, the pegasus could not bring herself to lay a hoof over Velvet, even if the latter was going to lay some hits with a beater.

Suddenly, Velvet changed trajectory towards one of the sofas in the room. She sat  upwards on the sofa, and said.
"Get over here and bend over."

After saying that double-entrede-filled sentence, Velvet looked sternly at Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow Dash sighed, and did what Velvet told her.

Once Rainbow Dash was in position, Velvet undid the diaper's tapes, slid it off, put it aside, and raised the carpet beater.
The cyan mare bit her lip, in attempt to dull the incoming rump pain...

Rainbow Dash heard a swat, and felt a rush of pain. She hissed, as Velvet repeated the gesture five times.

Then Velvet asked.
"Are you sorry?"
Rainbow Dash, feeling humiliated and a bit in pain, was going to say "Yes." However, the desire of fight back overtook the mare, and made her say.
"No!"

Then, since Velvet was just behind her, Rainbow Dash tried to kick the older mare with her mighty rear hooves.
However, Velvet, clearly foreseeing that, blocked the two hooves just few inches from her face. Once she blocked the hooves, Velvet hanged the blue mare upside-down, and forced eye contact.
"Do not even think to hurt me!" sad Velvet, while she slowly put Rainbow Dash back in position. "For this, I think I will escalate the punishment even more!"

The blue mare gulped, at the thought about how that could get worse.

However, her mind could not concentrate well on at, because meanwhile Velvet had resumed the swatting with the carpet beater.
After twenty or so of those swats, Velvet freed Rainbow Dash, ran in another nearby room, and returned in the entrance hall with a rope.
"Now, since you have been a bad filly, I think I will have to limit you some more." That said, Twilight's mother quickly tied the wings of the cyan pegasus to the body.

Rainbow Dash, feeling almost mutilated by the block on her wings, tried to get free from the rope by buzzing them and mess it with her hooves, but to no avail: she was, literally, grounded. Velvet hastily put the diaper back on Rainbow Dash's rump, and said
"Don't try to get free from these ropes until I tell you to do so. And now, unto the next and last phase of your punishment."

Rainbow Dash was going to say something to the old mare, but she was caught by surprise by the firm magical grip of Velvet, and the following dragging to the starting point, the cameretta.

Velvet lowered the handle of the door with her right hoof, and then opened the door, allowing to see what was going on in the room.
Namely, Rarity was going around a frilly dress-wearing Applejack and praising-mocking the prettiness of the dress wore by Applejack. The farm pony just stared the ground and blushed. As for Fluttershy, she was peacefully playing with Twilight and Pinkie Pie.

Rainbow Dash greeted her five friends, as she was dragged in by Velvet. The five stopped dead in their tracks, and looked at Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Applejack with worry, the others with curiosity.
"What happened, Rainbow Dash?" Asked Applejack.

"I also wonder about what our dear friend Rainbow Dash endured," said Rarity.

Before the other ponies could ask any more questions, Velvet said.

"Your friend has been a bad filly, along with the other three young ones. As such, she is being punished. Ah, and the other three too."

Rarity moved her face towards Velvet to express disbelief, Applejack looked sideways at Velvet, Twilight and Pinkie Pie looked puzzled, and, finally, Fluttershy did what she was used to do in such situations: worry.

"Oh my gosh, Rainbow. What have you done?"

"I tried to give back your toys, the ones that the CMC stole from you!"

Fluttershy looked down to the floor and lowered her ears.
"Actually... those toys were really theirs."

Rainbow Dash uttered a "Darn" as Velvet dragged her into a corner that contained a stool.
Once in the corner of the room, Velvet dropped Rainbow's rear hooves, and said.
"Now sit on the stool, and face the corner for three minutes. Once the three minutes end, you are done."
Sighing, Rainbow Dash nodded, and sat on the stool.

Once the pegasus mare was on the stool, Velvet came back to the other five mares, and tried to make them ignore Rainbow Dash.




Meanwhile, upstairs, Applebloom was sitting in the crib, and she was pressing the front part of her diaper, and moaning in desperation.

"Gotta pee, gotta pee really badly," she whispered.

Woken up by Applebloom's lament, Sweetie Belle asked.
"Why are you moaning, Applebloom?"

The yellow filly crawled towards her white friend.
"Because I need to go to the bathroom, but the room is too dark to see where the door is!"

Sweetie Belle shrugged.
"Can't you try to figure that out, by opening everything that looks like a door? Besides, we have a diaper on us that we can use, and I don't think Velvet would let us go to the bathroom."

Applebloom answered offended.
"I don't want to play a guessing game. And I am a big pony, and as such, I must use the bathroom!"

"I know, but do you realize what the actual situation is?" The white filly expressed politely her contrast. Applebloom, naturally, did not notice the politeness.

"Yes, I do. But how is this connected to my wish to go to the toilette, instead of using a diaper?"

"It's connected, since us three, our sisters and their friends are all diapered because Velvet sees us as little fillies. And, from what I could understand, Velvet sees me, Scootaloo and you as months-old."

"And so what?"

"This means that Velvet considers us as babies that still need potty training."

Applebloom grew angrier.
"I still can't understand why you think Velvet would get angry at me, if I try to use the loo!"

Sweetie Belle remained more collected, but also raised the tone of her voice.
"Because she would not think that you were 'watering the daisies', but that you were trying to escape!"

Applebloom looked around her in disbelief, and hanged her mouth open for few seconds. Then she spoke up in rage mixed with confusion.
"How did you reach this conclusion, Sweetie? And why are you so worried about Velvet's punishment?"

Sweetie Belle answered with annoyance.
"Did you see what happened to Rainbow Dash, when she tried to escape?"

Applebloom slightly skimmed, as she answered with increasing annoyance.
"And so? Trying to escape from the main door would be incredibly stupid anyway, so how can she mistake going to the bathroom as an attempt to run away or break the punishment?"

"Once again, she considers us babies, and thus with limited intelligence and bowel control. It would not be impossible. In fact, it's dead cert."

Applebloom huffed in extreme annoyance.
"This discussion solved nothing! Now the pressure on my bladder has grown, and I went nowhere near the bathroom. Since I really don't want to use this, I am going to tempt luck."

Sweetie Belle sighed and lowered her head.
"As you wish. May the Energy be with you, because you don't know what you are going to do."

That said, Applebloom climbed, not without some struggle thanks to the diaper and her weight, over the wooden bars of the crib, and started to walk towards the opposite part of the room, with her crotch in pain from holding the pee for too long.

Each step looked like a small conquest to Applebloom, but she was still far from her location. But, deep in the yellow filly's heart, she knew she was going to use the bathroom like the big pony she was, and nothing was going to stop her.

Except, maybe, a sudden scare.

The door that appeared like a light high rectangular shape in the darkness suddenly opened with a loud creak, showering the room in natural light.  Applebloom backed slightly, because her eyes were used to darkness by that point, and light hurt a little. Few droplets of the yellow liquid were adsorbed by the diaper. However, Applebloom's banks completely broke down when Velvet appeared, and, noticing Applebloom in front of her, sternly said.
"Applebloom! What are you doing?!"

The yellow filly felt her heart filling up with fear and surprise. She wished to say something, but nothing came out, and so she blocked herself. As a result, Applebloom also relaxed her bladder.

She felt her urine exiting from her body and getting adsorbed by the diaper around her waist. When the filly realized that, another emotion, shame, was added to the mix of negative feelings that pervaded her.

"So much for big pony!" her mind screamed at itself.

The filly didn't know what to do, she was too ashamed to try to explain her behaviour, she was too scared to run away, she was too confused to try to formulate a reasonable thought... by that point, the only things she could do were cry, or stay there, and wait to calm down.

Applebloom in a whim decided that the former was not a completely bad option.

As soon as Applebloom curled up in a ball, and started to whimper and produce tears, Velvet, realizing the mistake, wiped her frown off her face, and picked up Applebloom with magic. Done that, she put the crying filly in her front hooves, and whispered in her ear.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. Hush, please. I will get you changed." And started to rock her.

Applebloom toned down her crying to sobbing, and, when she realized the reason for why she did that, she could not believe it.
"Did I just stop crying because I was rocked like a little foal?" she whispered to herself.

A very high-pitched and yet whispering voice suddenly spoke up in Applebloom's mind.
"But it felt... good."

Applebloom answered to the voice. "No, it didn't! I can't just have peed on myself, cried for it, and stopped crying because I was lulled a bit and got some sweet words! This didn't happen! No, it didn't!"

The voice answered with a sneaky tone. "Come on, what fun is there in begin a big pony, if you can't be a little one sometimes?"

Applebloom answered with passionate confusion. "That the others make fun of you! That... I can't describe it, it just feels wrong!"

"But you just saw your close friend doing those 'wrong things.' In fact, you followed her in her ride without any questions."

"But that was different. She didn't force me to use the diaper, when she used it. Also, I did it because..."

"Tell the truth, while getting caught walking away by Velvet was not pleasurable, you DID enjoyed getting rocked!"

"Not true! I don't even know why I started crying, I guess I realized it was stupid cry right there right now."

"You knew it. It's just you don't want to admit it. Besides, it's late to try to uselessly save your 'dignity,' since we are already on the changing table."

The yellow filly looked around her, and saw that, indeed, she was on the changing table of the cameretta, with Velvet pulling out the can of baby powder, a diaper and a wipe.
The yellow filly sighed.

"Alright... let's get this done."

Velvet untaped the diaper quickly, threw it in the bin, cleaned the area with the wipe, threw away the wipe, powdered Applebloom's nether region, took a diaper, slid it under Applebloom's rump, taped it to the filly's waist, then put her down on the floor.

"Well, that was fast. And at least I didn't..."

She could not finish her sentence, becuase Velvet forecefully put her pacifier in her mouth.

Applebloom sighed again. 

Velvet then exited from the room, and came back with a camera.
