//------------------------------// // World War D! // Story: All Mares Want The D // by Diablomuerte2 //------------------------------// World War D! 4:00 AM Rainbow Dash awoke in the morning being covered in limbs from various mares. She had forgotten that her house was inhabited by her "marem" and she was sleeping right in the center of a mare fiesta. She usually woke up very early to get her early morning weather duties out of the way before she either napped or hung out with the group of now sleeping ponies. This morning however she was not able to get out of bed unless she wanted to disturb the web of mares that was ensnaring her. After two minutes of listening to mumbles and light snoring she decided her hell would end and moved abruptly which in turn did the very thing she was afraid would happen. Each mare woke up in various degrees of speed and elegance. Rarity being the most elegant of them had an attractive morning yawn that made Rainbow Dash want to wake her again. Fluttershy's yawn was too cute for Rainbow Dash to process and that made her morning that much more awkward. Applejack woke up with a snort and a "huh" killing the mood for Rainbow Dash entirely.... ____________________________________________________________ 4:30 AM Rainbow Dash was in the middle of a marem shower, as Pinkie called it, and she didn't know how to feel. It sounded like a fantasy scenario but in reality it was really awkward. It wasn't the copious amount of touching she had to endure that bothered her it was the minor complaints made during said molestation. The shampoo was too fancy for Applejack's taste and she and Rarity got into an argument about it. Twilight and Fluttershy were arguing over who should tend to Rainbow Dash's wings, in which they both made solid points. Then there was Pinkie Pie. She was just staring at Rainbow Dash the whole time she was cleaning herself. Pinkie Pie's eyes never left Rainbow Dash's body and it made Rainbow Dash shiver. ____________________________________________________________ 5:00 AM Rainbow Dash was ready to eat something small before she began making the weather set to whatever the schedule called for. She decided to look at the schedule and noticed it had a rainy symbol which meant there was going to be a rainy day. She felt nervous about a rainy day for some reason. She couldn't put her hoof on it but something about today felt like it was going to be a nightmare. She decided to ignore the negative thoughts swirling in her head and just enjoy whatever Fluttershy was going to make for the group to eat. It was Fluttershy's day to make breakfast according to Twilight's itinerary for the week's events. ____________________________________________________________ 5:10 AM The early morning darkness was only more ominous by the lack of noise and life around Ponyville. Rainbow Dash hadn't notice how quiet it got because usually she was drowned out by the sound of how awesome she was. This morning it felt like she had entered the ... "Heh, Twilight Zone, sounds kinky," ____________________________________________________________ Meanwhile, just outside of Ponyville, a flock of griffins had huddled up and relayed the plan for operation Waifu Snatch. Gilda was leading the charge and knew Ponyville’s layout and how annoying certain inhabitants can be. "Alright we clear now?" The other griffins nodded and were getting excited about the prospect of having Rainbow Dash in their flock. Gilda didn't like the idea of sharing the D, but she knew that alone she couldn't overpower Rainbow Dash and kidnap her. She didn't know what kind of resistance she would face and didn't care in the slightest. All she knew was that her and Rainbow Dash were destined to be together. ____________________________________________________________ Meanwhile, on the other side of Ponyville, The female members of the Wonderbolts were preparing for their own plan to win Rainbow Dash over. Spitfire had the bait needed to lure Rainbow Dash in, afterall it was Rainbow Dash's dream to become a member. She had to get a majority vote on this situation and so she allied herself with the other mares from the squad and ignored Soarin’s disapproval.. "Alright girls, We come to Ponyville with one goal in mind, to get the D and we won't fail." ____________________________________________________________ While all this was going on there was a secret group of mares who were unhappy with Twilight's little plan. Lead by a pissed off Mrs. Cake the Alliance of Stolen Waifu was ready for their own attempt to secure the D. Mrs. Cake was formerly an ally of Pinkie Pie until she turned on her when Twilight came up with her little gimmick. She wasn't going to allow that prissy purple princess and pink plotting pony to take her D away. She had many mares with her and they each wanted the D badly. ____________________________________________________________ The stallions had been abandoned by their former leader, Spike, and were not plotting anything except for Big Mac. Big Mac could feel the shifting winds and knew a shit storm was brewing and he needed to keep his remaining family safe. He boarded up the windows and locked the doors to ensure that his home wouldn't be accessible in the coming apocalypse. He knew he should warn the other stallions but with a foal and elder pony needing him more, it was all stallions for themselves. ____________________________________________________________ During this moment in time Discord had been keeping an eye on things... Literally. He had kept his body in Canterlot while his eyes were hovering Ponyville watching Rainbow Dash. It was like a perverted voyeur experience that was also fun because of the torment he brought on the entities of day and night. He gave them all the details of Rainbow Dash having a shower with the group of ponies that Celestia lovingly referred to as "Sluts." While his eye was maintaining visuals for the princesses his boredom escalated until he sensed something ominous about the day. He was due for some reward for spying on the boring pony who got all the mares in a frenzy. ____________________________________________________________ 5:15 AM Spike was walking along the tracks to avoid the wilderness and keep clear of possible angry avian fiends. He had been travelling and his body was worn out from the distance he had managed to travel. As he trudged along he thought he heard the faint whisper of a roaring train speeding through. He looked ahead and saw what appeared to be a train from the Crystal Empire being powered by magic alone. It had an aura around it was blazing through at an insane speed. The train was about to collide with him but it stopped dead in it's tracks. He almost urinated himself but luckily he kept his composure and sure enough the pony guiding the train came out and said two things to him. "Get on!" ____________________________________________________________ 5:20 Rainbow Dash was doing her routine weather patrol duties and making sure the weather was altered precisely as needed for the day. She usually got up early to work alone since she hated having to work in a group, since other pegasi couldn't keep up with her. She was able to make a sky full of clouds become empty in ten seconds flat and no other pony could measure up. She had enjoyed her job, it wasn't the pay or glory that made it exciting for her though, it was just the freedom and open air that allowed her to be at peace. Well that was normally the case but she began noticing some figures ominously getting closer to her. She knew that she had spawned an obsessive fanbase seemingly overnight but these shadows didn't seem equine in the slightest. She recognized the shape after it got even closer and realized that it was a pack of griffins. "What are griffins doing in Ponyville?" She didn't want to get in a battle where she was outnumbered and figured no griffin would be insane enough to attack her while surrounded with her friends. Applejack had strength and Twilight had powerful magic. Combined those attributes with Rainbow Dash's extreme speed and no pony or creature could defeat them. She also remembered that Pinkie Pie had her powers of randomness which sometimes worked in their favor. She didn't particularly like getting Rarity or Fluttershy involved in war or combat since they were both meek. Still she had no option as she noticed another set of flying shapes heading in her direction while maintaining a distance as well. "Great now what?" she grumbled while getting to the safety of her home. ____________________________________________________________ It was still really early in the morning so the mares that inhabited Rainbow Dash's domain were still inside doing various tasks to get ready for the day. Rarity was making sure she looked fabulous, as always, to keep her professional image at work. Applejack was begrudgingly getting ready to get her apple bucking on. She knew that the farm still needed to be maintained for the betterment of Ponyville. Twilight was making a schedule and list because it's just what she does. Pinkie Pie was thinking of how to get her present from the bakery to the house since it was made with Mrs. Cake's help and she didn't have a chance to talk with Mrs. Cake after Twilight's plan came together. Fluttershy was psyching herself up to face her animals and teach them some independence. She was going to miss being surrounded by her amazing animal friends but her life needed a change and fast. Though they all stopped what they were doing once they heard the sound of the front door open and immediately close with a slam. They all rushed to see who would dare invade the home they shared. The culprit turned out to be none other than Rainbow Dash herself. "Dashie" they all shouted in unison which made Rainbow Dash jump. Rainbow Dash was breathing heavily and felt nervous about what lied in waiting. Applejack raised an eyebrow at Rainbow Dash, "Golly, what's gotten ya so worked up, Sugar Cube." Rainbow Dash didn't need to speak as they all began hearing the noise of imminent trouble approaching. ____________________________________________________________ Outside of Rainbow's house was the griffins and the mares of the wonderbolts. They both had arrived at the same time and were staring each other down. The situation got worse when the mares from Ponyville showed up and turned the already awkward staring contest into a three way tie. None of the mares or griffins said a word but much was communicated through their body language. The griffins glared and unfurled their wings in which was returned by the pegasi with their wings flaring. The unicorns were lighting up their horns and the earth ponies were stamping their hooves on the ground. The entire scenario seemed animalistic and civility was lost amongst the fray. Discord's eyes were keeping track of this moment and he knew that soon the war for Rainbow Dash was going to begin. ____________________________________________________________ 5:30 Discord relays to the princesses the fiasco at hand. Celestia in response decides to wake Luna up and alert her of the trouble brewing in Ponyville. When Luna was up she could see the look on her sister's eyes. "We must save our bride to be," Celestia stated in distress. Luna became energized even though she just recently was sleeping only minutes prior. ____________________________________________________________ The train was still zooming at an incredible pace and was near Ponyville. The integrity of the train's structure had been coming apart and the entirety of the train was threatening to shatter due to the extreme pressure and wear being caused by moving at the speed it was. With the pony pushing the train to it's limits it would surely be in a state of disrepair by the time it was done moving. Spike was still unsure as to why the pony guiding the train came alone. He was hoping to get to the Crystal Empire to find the pony who could stop all this and hopefully the pony who picked him up could be the one. "So what's the plan when we arrive in Ponyville?" Spike asked curiously. The pony replied "I'm going to fix the world and return it to normal. No matter what the cost I will not allow the chaos to continue especially when it's costing all the stallions the affection they deserve." Spike had a smile forming on his face. "Finally, everything will go back to normal... so how do you intend on fixing things?" The pony gave spike a menacing look, "By doing what needs to be done!" Spike's smile slowly disappeared and he began to worry about the safety of Rainbow Dash. ____________________________________________________________ Twilight looked out the window and got a gist of what was going on. She had formulated a plan to keep Rainbow Dash away from those waifu stealing whores. "Alright shall I go over the plan again or is everypony ready?" "Ready!" was replied in various tones by the ponies who were in the home. Twilight smiled and nodded, "Alright girls, let's do this!" ____________________________________________________________ Princess Cadence was moving around on her bed when she noticed it was empty. She rubbed her eyes and looked around. When she found no trace of her husband she began calling for him. "Shining... Shining... Shining Armor!" she yelled out with no response. She walked across the halls of her castle in search for him but had no luck in finding him. She decided to check on her favorite thing in the world since the madness began. When she went to the crystal statue of Rainbow Dash she was shocked to find the head was missing "Who could have done such a thing?" It wasn't a minute before it suddenly began piecing itself together and she gasped at the realization. "Shining... " She teleported to the train station and when she saw the train not where it was she became immensely worried. "I must save Rainbow Dash." With that said she summoned all her magic and was ready to stop her husband before something tragic happened. Just before she teleported in a rush a letter appeared via magic. The letter had caught her attention and her sudden surge of magic was gone. She looked at the letter and surely the content of the letter changed her mood entirely and made a wicked smile appear on her face. "Well, well it seems Rainbow Dash shall be joining me here sooner than expected. I guess it's time I get this place ready for the arrival of my dear Dashie!"
