Heart of Diamonds

Chapter Twenty-Five

A painful groan escapes my lips as I start to slowly, yet weakly awaken from the powerful blast created from mine and that foul creature’s magic colliding. I reach up to rub between my eyes with my hoof and as I open my eyes, I’m engulfed in a cloud of thick, black smoke. Unable to stop myself from inhaling the harmful fumes I begin to cough roughly, but I force myself to stand up.



Trotting through, I can see debris scattered all over the tile floor Goodness, that collision must have been a lot more stronger than I thought. It’s a total wreck in here. I keep my head lowered so I can prevent anymore smoke from damaging my eyes. Suddenly I bump into something and I lift my head to see what it is, but what I see causes fear to run through me.



It’s the cage from above that held my baby boy hostage “Connor!” I cry out as I see the cage broken into wooden rubble and I look all around to see if I see him. Quickly, I push the broken pieces of wood out of the way to try and find him. When I do, I gasp in horror as I see my son curled up in a fetal position, coughing violently “Oh Connor baby.” I sit down on my haunches and scoop him up in my forelegs.



He has his little hand up to his mouth to sustain his coughing as he looks up at me with tears in his eyes “Mommy!” He cries out, but coughs even more.



“Shh… it’s okay dear, Mommy’s here!” I lean down to kiss his forehead and rub at his back soothingly “Hold on Connor, I’m going to make you feel better.” Very carefully, I use my magic to levitate him to a safer place away from all the rubble and smoke. As I do I turn to see that Nightmare Moon was still out cold, or at least I hope so.



Suddenly I find a red satin cushion that was on the throne of Nightmare Moon and levitate Connor over to it, and gently lay him on it. My heart breaks as I see him violently cough, but I gently place my hoof on his back “Just try to stay still for me my baby boy, mommy’s going to use her magic to heal you.” He looks up at me with a soft smile as best as he can muster as I close my eyes to concentrate.



I open my eyes to look down at him sleeping peacefully and his cough finally subdued. Leaning my head down, I give him a tender kiss on his forehead “That’s it my darling boy, just sleep and I promise this nightmare will be over soon.” Since he is sharing this dream with me in his own mind, I use my magic to make him leave this nasty place and go to a safer place in his mind.



After making sure that he is safely gone, I turn to see the chamber doors opening and my friends come galloping in “Rarity!” They give me all smiles of relief as they come together in a group hug. I return their smiles and see Princess Luna trot toward us.



“You did well my friend, and it looks like Nightmare Moon’s reign of terror, for the time being has come to an end.” A warm smile creeps across her muzzle.



“I certainly do hope so princess… I mean Luna, because I just want these nightmares to stop, and I want Connor and I to live happily from now on.” I breathe a sigh of relief.



“Not…. so…. fast… you …. pathetic…. little…. worms!”



We turn to see the horrid mare get back to her hooves, but I can see her barrel heave in and out with heavy breaths. I look at the others “Girls, you all can leave if you would like to. I have this.” A proud smirk creeps across my muzzle as I slowly trot toward Nightmare Moon “Seriously darling, do you still want more?” I can see her limp toward me.



“How dare you talk to me like that! You should be scared out of her fur at what I’m fixing to do. I’m Nightmare Moon… AAH!”



Hearing enough of her rambling, I use my the ability of controlling my dream and simply blow a gust of breath at her and send her crashing into the wall. I giggle “Oh, hehe… I didn’t know my breath could be that strong...haha.. are you okay there Nighty?” I giggle some more as I use my magic to levitate her “Hmm… let’s see here, that all dark, black coat is intimidating, but certainly ghastly. I think a brighter color would look better on you, hold on.” I curve my lips in a thinking manner ‘Aha! This should be more our style.”



“Hey you nuisance of a pony, stop playing around! I’m getting tired of your….AHH! What in the Tartarus did you do me?! My precious and beautiful dark coat is ruined now!”



“Oh, what’s the matter Moony? I’m just trying to make you less frightful and a lot more cheery!” I smile with a blush as I turned her once dark, black coat into an all bright yellow with pink polka dots. The true colors of a coward who enjoys stalking their prey within their dreams “Don’t worry darling, I’m almost finished. Now let’s see, there is one thing you’ve caused me to hurt my son, but I got to admit it was very interesting.” I smirk as I light my horn up.



“I demand you change my coat back to normal you worthless…. whoa...whoa… what are you doing?!”



Letting out chuckle, I begin to shrink her down to a bite-sized morsel while keeping her in the air with my magic. A devilish grin crosses my muzzle “Mm.. now don’t you look like a tasty little dark chocolate drop.” I open my mouth and I allow her the chance to get a good view at the inside of what a true mare’s beautiful and luscious mouth looks like “Say bye bye my little honey drop.” I giggle as I levitate her toward my mouth and drop her onto my tongue.



“No, wait… can’t we talk about…..Ahhh mmmm!”



I clamp down my jaws around her, muffling her screams of protest. To make her pay for all she’s done to my son and I, I decide to swish her around in my mouth like a breath mint “Mmm..” Her taste is exceptional indeed I got to admit, she tastes heavenly for such a despicable, heartless pony. I continue to swish her around a little bit more before throwing my head back, and with one big gulp, I send her down my lovely throat.



Reaching up a hoof, I massaged tenderly at the bulge she makes within my throat and I can feel her travel down until she lands into my tummy. I let out a sigh of satisfaction and rub at my tummy “Mm.. for a classless, tasteless so called queen of nightmares, you sure were divine Nighty!” I giggle light-heartedly as I turn to trot out of the throne room.


Now I got to find my way out of this horrid place and wake up so I can go see my son.
