Mad Max Monarch was a normal run of the mill mercenary, until he met Eris. Now he will see how one decision will change his life forever. For better or for worse it's all up to him.
“Well, this ain't a bad day at all. Glad I got leave for the day.” I say as I walk about the bazaar. A few people are giving me a weird look, but what do you expect I'm Mercenary shopping in an Iraqi Bazaar. I just don't give a shit. Follow protocol, don't cause trouble and you'll be fine. That Lesson was beaten into me Maxwell 'Mad Max' Monarch back when I was here as a Soldier.
Why do they call me that, well since I was in school I've been ready to kick ass for what I believe in and take one for the team when necessary. Well back to the point I was just getting a lay of the land wasn't that often I'd get a treat of being outside of Command Center and have leave at the same time. As for the looks I'm fucking ripped most Civies would think twice before fucking with me, until they see my tattoo of Queen Chrysalis (Yeah I'm a brony got a problem bro) even though I had a bad-ass image and not some cartoony version of her. Higher ups pretty much made me cover it saying it was inappropriate and a source of conflict
But I digress, I walking around town with some time to spare before curfew and I notice this beautiful girl. Hell if I didn't know better I'd say she was the human version of Eris but everyone knows she's a fictional character. However she was hot so I thought I follow her, hell she looked about as American as I was. Little would I know what was coming for me. I enter the bar and order the girl a beer (What this was a shitty bar only a soldier or a brute would come here).
Shit the barkeep told her I ordered it. Here she comes gotta look cool. “Hey there, soldier. Thanks for the drink, mind if I sit?” I was getting ready to say free country but then I remembered where I was. “I guess you're right it is a free world so sit I shall!” Hold the fucking phone did I say that? I must have, I just shrug it off and pull her chair out for her. “Well well a gentleman and a soldier good traits to have”
Dude she's complimenting me time to talk. “Thanks, names Max what's yours?” I sit there for a second drinking my beer hoping that I didn't blow this.
“Eris is my name, Chaos is my game. I'm here as a photographer taking shots of the chaos.” Wait.....did she just say Eris. Loading brony.exe.....Holy Luna what a coincidence well let's see how far I can get I've got about six hours of time to spend before it's not safe out.
Time to respond “Eris, as in the Greek goddess of chaos and disarray. You got yourself a good job to go with that name hon this place is a PIT of chaos.”
She gave me a wry grin. “Well if this place is such a pit of chaos then why are you here, Soldier boy trying to fix it?”
I could swear I saw a golden glow in those beautiful eyes. “Fix this place, yeah that ain't gonna happen in my lifetime. I came here to get away from all the mundane shit civies have to deal with. Tried to re-up but US wasn't having it so I went merc. I just can't live a life without a little trouble, had to get my ass out of America or I'd go insane. I just couldn't live a civilian life, too much fucking order not enough chaos!”
I clasped my mouth what the fuck is going on here I'm saying what I'm thinking instead of what I should be saying. Eris started to smile “Well that just doesn't make sense, soldiers exist to maintain the order don't they?”
What is going on here “Sense, what fun is there in making sense my dear Eris? I'm here for the chaos and also to bring some order, for what is chaos without order. That is the one true sense my dear.” Okay now I'm freaking out I'm spilling my guts to this girl I just met. What if she's an undercover official and I get reprimanded or worse sent back home.
“Well you're a different type of soldier, even for a rent-a-soldier” She said while keeping interest in me.
“Yeah, I used to live in Japan when I was a kid. Got the full 'samurai spirit' treatment. Hell my mom kept me with her at the dojo saying it would be safer for me than living in the barracks. Turns out she was right they got their shit bombed and my dad was dead. Seeing how I possessed dual citizenship. Japanese mother African American father (deceased) so I was officially my mom’s problem. We chose to stay the dojo with ojii sama instead of returning to the states.”
Why the fuck am I telling her my life story just don't mention the ninja training. “So, you're like some kind of modern day ninja!” she said while clapping her hands. Well fuck me sideways either this chick is psychic or she's the real Eris.
As I thought that her eyes glowed that brilliant golden glow and changed back to a green. Now I know I'm not seeing things, once sure but twice I don't think so. “I have a question for you.” She gave me a 'ask away' look . Are you the real Eris, Goddess of chaos and disarray? Right like I'd ask her that “So your name really is Eris right?”
She looked slightly offended. “Of course it is Soldier boy... I mean Max. So shall we leave this drab little place for a more fun venue?” Wait is this an 'invitation'? Oh hell yes!
“I would love to” I answer with a slight bow and she leads the way out of the bar. I couldn't help but look at that ass, it was magnificent! Hell, everything about her was screaming come on and jump me. From the beautiful and playful eyes to even the way she fucking walked I was going crazy. Shit it was a damn shame she covered herself, but I guess that was for the better. “So where are we going exactly?” I ask the military man in me just reached out for intel.
She turned to face me dead in the eye for effect. “A beautiful lady is letting you, a trained soldier escort her home. If you play your cards right you might even have some fun along the way!”
And there goes the glow in her eyes again, I don’t even think she’s even trying to hide it anymore, is she? Well not like I give a fuck anyway, she clearly wants my company and she will get it. We spend some time walking about booths and checking out their goods. I say we but it was mostly just a shopping trip for Eris. If this were some tv show it would be a good time for a montage. It was just her until she dragged me to some male clothing and said to give it a look
After about an hour and a half of both of us trying on clothes. Well putting them near our bodies is more like it. We were both satisfied and of course bought a few things to avoid angry merchants. Among those things was a pack I wasn't about to carry all those clothes that’s just screaming come rob us to anyone who wasn't scared of getting near me.
Five minutes after our walk away from the booths began, Eris just stopped. “Well here we are, Sir max. Is there anything this fair maiden can do to thank you for the fun time” she said in a mock ye olde English accent before grabbing me by the collar and pulling me into her abode.
Gott damn, Eris plays no games when it comes to the horizontal tango well it was more like a perpendicular seeing as she’s riding me and not letting me have control. Being her bitch right now is definitely worth it. I try to flip the script on her but she didn't seem to like that. Her face screamed ‘I want to be on top NOW’ I sigh and give in to her non voiced command.
I, however refused to go down without a fight. So I grabbed her ass gently fondling it and started moving my hips to her grinding. “Attaboy, get into the spirit of things just like that”
That was all the prompting I needed after all I don’t see nothing wrong with a little bump and grind, or in our case a lot of bump and grind. I remove my hands from her ass and cup her breast as I go for a kiss. She liked my assertiveness and rewarded me in kind.
Eris Arches back without either of us stopping our ever moving pelvises. I took the initiative and played with her clit a bit. That earned me a lusty moan of “keep going” from her and of course she’s the boss right now so on I went.
“Come on baby, it’s about time for you to hit your ‘target’ and head for exfiltration”
Oh sweet lord above she’s using military terms to for dirty talk and I’m about ready to pop. I gotta think of something else can’t go leaving my ‘contact’ high and dry in hostile territory. “Eris, I think I’m gonna!”
She bent closer to my face. “Don't you dare!” Was all she need to say to discourage me from even thinking of climbing the mountain top without her. Willpower or no, I was close so it was time for a ‘grenade’ to even the field. I hope she doesn’t kill me for taking a risk.
I slowly prod her ass to test waters. That one got a gasp “you naughty boy, go for it!” that was all the confirmation I needed. I slowly put my finger in of course she’s still riding like a madwoman but that didn't deter me from my goal of simultaneous or at the very least mutual orgasms. I was running out of time so in went the second finger. Time was short and she would not stop. she was close and my member felt like it had a hairline trigger one wrong move and bam. I fought back a second rise knowing the next time it came I would not be able to resist.
Eris seemed rather gleeful at my attempt to please her. So much so that she went to all fours. It was clear to me that it was doggy time and I would have to try my damndest to get her off. I took it as her giving me a smidge of control. I take hold of her hip with my free hand and proceed to the pounding. I could feel it she was tightening up and I was rising to the top once more my ‘gun’ could take no more as she backed it up at a wanton pace and I matched my thrusting to it. I hope she gets off cause like it or not I was emptying my clip.
Luckily enough for me, we reached orgasm simultaneously. as I spasm to the bed the deed done I bask in my triumph as Star Fox 64’s ‘Mission Complete’ played in my head. Nothing could ruin this moment. As I lay next to a exhausted and happy Eris, smile visible on her face. Being the fanboy I am I really should know better than to tempt fate. But what the hell could happen in a tenth floor apartment In Iraq?
Eris got up to take a shower, a shower to which I would be joining. Yay it might not be a hit and quit (don’t be sexist, women do that shit too) It was about that moment when I noticed someone suspicious on the opposite rooftop as I was checking my surroundings. Muscle memory never seems to fail. This guy wasn't sporting a sniper rifle it was a fucking compound bow I pushed Eris out of the way in time but I wasn't so lucky and my ass got hit. There was a ticking sound coming from the arrow
“Eris, I’m sorry we couldn't have a second date” and with that said I jumped out the window knowing we’d both die if I tried to pull that shit outta me.
“Wait Max don’t!!” but it was too late I was plummeting from the tenth floor and my brilliant destruction was coming.
The cheesiest thing just came to mind and I couldn't help myself in the face of death. “Looks like Mad Max is blasting off again!” boom (not ding)and that was it I was giblets with what little time was left I thought of something happy... Equestria
Somethings wrong shouldn't I be feeling either an upwards pulling or some downward tugging. I really hope I’m not a ghost haunting some poor fucker. “Well if this is death than what the hell shouldn't I be greeted or some such shit!” I yelled into the nothingness. Still no reaction was yielded to me. Is this what would've happened to Fantasia if not for Bastian Balthazar Bux? If so I’m glad I didn't live there because I don’t like it here. “Well I’m not just gonna sit here and wait for nothing.” I snickered at the lame pun. With that I got my black ass up and walked about viewing nothing, pure nothing.
Is this what the afterlife is? It’s nothing more than a fucking void. Well I don’t like being surrounded by nothing so let’s liven it up. The first thing that comes to mind is my dream grotto where I one day dreamed of living. After all who wants to live like a slumdog merc forever?
I was glad my instincts were correct and the nothing was like a dreamscape just needing to be molded. The Grotto came complete with amenities from grill to hot tub and seaside location. There were palm trees split out in a symmetrical way, well as symmetrical as a fucking palm tree can be. Hell, I even had a small table with banzai just laying next to the zen garden. Shit,I even set myself up with a fucking sparring area.
I go to lay in my beach chair when I realize someone’s in it. As I walk closer I notice the silhouette was a female. My mind went crazy I really hope Eris didn't join me after I went so far as to take a plunge for her. That fear was confirmed when I saw Eris in a hot ass emerald bikini with complementing shades sipping on a Mai Tai.
Eris took one look at me. “What’s up, lover boy?”
What’s up lover boy? Is that all she’s got to say to me I bit the big D so she could get away safely and I just find out she’s here that wasn't going well with me so I spoke it as nicely as I could. “Eris what the absolute fuck?! I took a fall so you could get out alive and here you are in the afterlife with me!” I was in a state of pure rage but I let it die to one of love. After all she’s just a photographer. She was just sitting there smiling! How the fuck can she do that now… I mean we’re dead!
Eris popped right behind me in the blink of an eye and wrapped her arms around me. “Oh Max, my dear soldier boy. I am not dead and your thoughts earlier were indeed correct I am THE Eris goddess of chaos and disarray! And we are in more of a limbo or a sanctuary, I stopped you from ‘checking in’ to the pearly white palace. Believe it or not that’s where you were heading. And pulled you here in order to give you another chance ” She just said that in a matter-of-fact tone of voice. “So, Max do you want another shot at life? I can do that for you lover, just not on Earth.”
I would call bullshit but for some reason I believe she’s not lying to me. “But if not Earth than where am I going to go and let’s not forget I’d need a new body honey, seeing as my old one is kinda giblets now.” She gave me an appraising look happy I knew that my body was what I think it to be in this place.
She thought for a minute and the next thing I know music started playing. “My dear Max. Your mission, if you choose to accept it. Is to go to Equestria and cause some mayhem. Also as a side note if Discord gets free kick his ass.”
I just stand there gawking can she read my fucking mind or something. There goes that beautiful glow again, yup she can read my mind. “I’ll go but as for the causing mayhem, I’d prefer to balance Equestria’s checkbook of chaos. They've got it too damn good there but no need to destroy them with too much chaos.” Eris just smiled at my decision then I remembered a ficI read with a similar plot. “But I get to choose where and when I get sent to and what I’ll become. Can’t go leaving it to chance. I mean how much chaos can a bat or a pig cause?”
She seemed a little peeved that I took a bit of her fun away but she looked like she was agreeing with me. “Okay I’ll give you the power of choice just don’t pick something boring like a pony!”
Oh Eris my love, I you’re in for a surprise you didn’t notice my tat during our romp because of my armband. I take a breath for dramatic effect. The drama queen known as Eris liked that bit. “I want to be a changeling, but not a normal one I want to be Chrysalis’ equal a king but still with something different. I want to be strong, damn strong.”
With a snap of her fingers I felt a burning in my body. It was probably the change in my appearance or the fact that I’m gaining a corporeal form. Either way it hurt like hell. I stare down and in my horror I’m only a skeleton. “Don’t worry about that I gave you a little something special since you saved me lover I can’t have my new man dying on me can I?”
She then explained that Changelings had healing factors but she gave me one that was on steroids. Mine would make Wolverine, Deadpool, and Jack Harkness eat their hearts out. She was going to explain more but I stopped her with a hoof. I had decided to explore a bit. I noticed my legs and tail were different there were divots in my forelegs and my hind legs as well as my tail were serrated.
I took a look of joy at Eris. “My bones are weapons! Sweet, I’m like Wolverine!” I gave her a hug, careful of my now sharp bones. “So I’m assuming I have an Exoskeleton and my bones are indestructible. So when will my flesh regenerate?”
Eris nodded at my assumptions “You were thinking ‘I want to be the Wolverine of the changelings’ weren't you so I gave that to you. As for your flesh just think about it, we aren't in Equestria yet so it hasn't kicked it in. All you need is to perceive yourself as whole. Also before I forget love, why a changeling?”
I didn't even need to think about that. “Ponies have got it too damn good and with my training I can give the changelings some hope. Let’s face it a children’s cartoon is going to paint them in an overly negative light, they were starving and most likely emaciated and there’s no way Hasbro would let that part be shown.”
It looks like yet again I have Eris speechless. “You’re correct they were. So where and when in Equestria am I sending you?” She asked showing intrigue at what I had just said to her.
I thought about it with my knowledge of MLP going up to almost midway into season four, there’s a lot of possibilities. So I sit down in a lawn chair and shift into my old body. The sexy one not the trashed one. After a minute of contemplation I had a decision.
I shift back into my changeling form to notice my blades had been sheathed. With another thought I took on a pony form. One pony came to mind the cutest little filly in the world, Scootaloo. Since I wouldn't be running into her anytime soon, I didn't have to worry about it yet. I took on a similar form. My coat was the same orange. While my hair was ink black with streaks of slime green and my eyes were draconic. I could say my dad boinked a dragon and I came out like this or something. Eris’ eyes flashed again.
“That’s actually a good Idea hon. I’ll put that in your backstory. Oh and just so you know, anything we think of before I send you will be real there so let’s do this wisely. Don’t want to wake up Discord too early now do we?”
I decided to take a second glance at my new visage, it was magnificent. With amethyst dragon eyes, orange scaled pony ears, dragon claws, multicolored Pegasus wings…? I didn't question it I just assumed she gave them to me for a reason. I pulled one out it hurt a little but it grew back in a second and put fire to it...nothing. These are feathered dragon wings. Meaning they’re flame retardant,nice. Still looking in the mirror, I notice my mane looked slimy. With a quick claw to the hair I found out it was made of ink and slime. I’m gonna chuck that one in the “because..magic” pile. I felt around for scales and found them matted under fur. I’m gonna have to work on growing more scales somehow. Opening my mouth to notice I had draconic teeth. That meant I could eat meat and gems..fuck yes. I craned my neck to the back a bit to notice an obviously bladed tail that looked more draconic than equine
We went over the details in a quick conversation. She snapped her fingers and boom that was it. I had the strength of the dragons and changelings and the none of their weaknesses. She kept calling me a dragon-kin and that was annoying so I fixed her error.
“I am not a dragon-kin, I am a dragoon! Oh yeah Eris. I need you to make me a colt, for real. For what I have planned I can’t have myself getting caught. Don’t you think I’m gonna need to know my backstory”
“Yes, dear. I can do that, just give me a second. And you can, don’t need to know it now it’ll be pounded in that sweet little head of yours.” Eris told me with love and joy at the fun I would bring to Equestria by my mere presence. How I know this is... come on it’s fucking Eris that’s how. With a snap of her fingers I was a fucking colt. “Where and When do you want to go now that you have a form. One that might cause a problem, might I add. But we’ll burn that bridge when we cross it!” I fucking love this woman!
After my moment of thought, there could only be one place for me. “Take me to the first rainboom incident. My plans include me meeting Rainbow Dash.”
She cringed at the mention of the element of loyalty. But did not question it..much. “I’m going to assume there’s a method to your madness Mad Max Monarch.”
I blanched a bit at my name. Max ain't a pony name and it definitely ain't a changeling one. The first order of business was to get myself two new names. Eris was going to send me off but she noticed my thinking face and waited on me.
“Thinking of a name for yourself, I see.” I didn't even question it anymore when she did that.
Taking a moment to ponder on the subject since once I name myself I’m stuck with it. Eris is not the type to allow a redo on something so trivial. One thing came to mind, Hasbro. So I started combing through the male names of Characters they owned not affiliated with MLP but passable for either a dragon or a pony. Then it hit me with one smooth flow from my mouth. “Storm Shadow” Eris didn't laugh at me she actually nodded her head in agreement Storm Shadow it is then. Because, fuck Snake Eyes.
“Sir Storm Shadow, how will you be meeting this filly?” Eris asked in a mock quizzical/sophisticated tone. Eris decides to match the theme and becomes a Draconequus
I just grab her by what I assumed was her waist and dipped and spun her then started waltzing with her. What I can be distinguished. “I plan on flying next to her and keeping up even after the boom. Impossible as it may sound I’m gonna hope that the dragon in me can do it and if I can she’ll try to save me when I lose consciousness.”
She has a look of pure joy on her face. I’m guessing at what my plan implied. Another pony who could sonic boom. I hope she doesn't expect a rainbow because all I’m equipped for is a nickelodeon boom.
“That sounds..amazing, no wondrous. You can do it if you can stay conscious. You might even be able to keep doing it...but no rainbows okay?”
“Eris, oh my queen of chaos. I love you. Did you read my mind that time though?”
“You’ll never know my love.” she snaps her fingers and I’m plummeting from the stratosphere.
As I was falling panic was hitting me and I couldn't help but shriek at the moment. What came out wasn't a shriek but a dragon roar...right I’m a dragoon. Eris said my memories would start flowing but I don’t think she meant this soon. As I came to my senses I stretch my wings out..oh please don’t be like the real scoots.
Luckily enough for me they weren't and I was now gliding instead of falling. Why I was panicking, I don’t know because I’d survive the fall. Oh yeah the pain and of course force of habit. Not used to being indestructible. Now fully calm I take a look at my guided fall with my glorious dragon eyes, instincts now kicking in. I could see various approach vectors and damn could I see far. It was amazing as I let the wind guide me I looked around Cloudsdale was beautiful. There it stood...floated? in all it’s fluffy white glory. I was curious but a small chime in my head later.
“You don’t have time for sightseeing, kick it into gear and follow the wind or you’ll miss her.”
“You’re in my head now? I’m not even gonna ask how” She gave me a small explanation and it was like I thought. I had a mental line to Eris.
I noticed the wind flow in the form of arrows for possible flight paths. I couldn't help but wonder if it was like this for all fliers or just the few with heavily trained minds and bodies. But that was a subject for later, I must go faster. I dove to pick up speed and shot up I was done gliding, it was time to fly. Faster, FAster, FASTER. I can’t miss her or my plans go down the shitter and Eris won’t let me live this down.
A couple of minutes and impromptu turns later. There she was Rainbow Dash, the (eventual) fastest (equine) flyer in Equestria getting ready to start the race I land on the cloud. “Mind if I join ya” I say wow my voice sounds a bit predatory hope I don’t scare her too much.
“Sure miser whatever you are. Saw you flying, you’re pretty fast. But you’ll be coming in second.” She said with with her chest puffed up they bullies did the same. They are so cute if they think I’m scared of them. Fluttershy just kept her head down, but if I didn't know better I’d say she was checking me out.
“Name’s Storm Shadow, my enemies call me the oncoming storm. You miss can call me Storm. and I’m not a ‘whatever’ I’m a…”
“Dragoon...right” Fluttershy finished. Well I’ll be damned it looks like she had some smarts on different species before the fall huh. I felt guilty at what I knew was about to happen to her.
“Correct, now I’d like your names if you don’t mind” I got their names even though I knew them already I didn't even listen to the idiots spout their names jackasses would get theirs in a minute.
When the race began I didn’t look back as Fluttershy fell, knowing full well she’d be just fine. I flew past the fools one after the other leaving me right next to dash. I winked at her while flying at her upside down. A moment of foolishness that would not repeat itself in this race. One of the jerks bumps RD and that causes me to shift a bit and RD to accelerate. Okay the game is on.
I accelerated as much as I could following RD's slipstream the goal was not to beat her but to match her. As She reached the crescendo of her speed I did the same and up we boomed, her leaving a rainbow and me leaving a slime trail. It was awesome. I look her in the eye. “Yes RD, that did just happen. You did a sonic rainboom and I guess I did a sonic slime boom of sorts, and we are still going!” I take one look at her flank to see her cutie mark and look at mine...nada. We boomed across Equestria and of course the predestined events ensued on our return I noticed my plan was failing I was still conscious and we were nearing home plate. I make a mental call to Eris.
“Yes love, I’ll help you redout in 3,2,1.”
I fell to the floor of Cloudsdale RD slowed my descent to an acceptable level and screamed for help. When I came to on my own in a nice bed that smelled nice. I took another whiff, it smelled of a mare. Not the sexy smell albeit but the comforting kind, it smelled like a mother.
“How you feeling, kid. Rainbow brought you home with the help a stallion spouting off some nonsense about her doing a rainboom, names Prism Lilly by the way.”I was laying on the bed back down. it was comfy satin sheets and all. Then one thought came to mind. How the fuck is this bed not...
“Don’t finish that thought or you’ll have an angry mare on your hands. There’s no slime on the bed because you’re trying to be courteous and not fuck up her bed. You have to want to slime something for it to get messy.”
Thanks for the info
I take a look at who I assume to be RD’s mom and she was a mirror image of her daughter only her beauty was more feminine and her hair was in a bun with chopsticks in it. I look at her cutie mark and it was prism with light shining out of it for a rainbow flower effect. I have no clue what job that ensued. It was time to analyze.
This house looks nice and the bed’s way too big for a single mare. No necklace on her and all photos are of her and RD. And damn was she fit, I could tell even through the robe she had what stallions wanted. *Ding* She’s a whorse, most likely a high end one or a companion of sorts. I just need to ask, fuck subtlety.
“I’m fine, miss Prism.” I say in a “I’m not going to sue you” voice. She gave me a look that said drop the miss. “As for the rainboom nonsense it’s real I was there hell I did a sonic boom myself.” She rolled her eyes in disbelief, I’d have to prove it to her later. Now it’s time for the whammy. “Not to be rude, but after a quick analysis of you and this place. Wow there’s really no nice way to ask this so here it goes. Are you a mare of the “business” ?
Prism blushed at my question and then I knew I hit the nail on the head. “How does a little colt, dragoon or no. Know about the business?” I gave her a who knows gesture and she glares at me. “Don’t even think about blackmailing me twerp, I’m licensed.”
Okay now I was hurt. She thinks I want bits? I gotta straighten this out. “Prism, I’m not trying to pull anything I swear. I just need a place to stay! Let me stay here with you and Dash and I’ll protect you.” Prism was thinking about it. Having a fire breather under her roof meant she wouldn't have to worry about the more violent johns, one proper scream and I would run in mouth ablaze. I could feel her voice over on her face, time to bring it home. “For free!” Yup that had her.
“Can you breath fire?” I ignite a small blaze in my mouth. “Are you strong?” I get out of bed and pick her up with one claw. “And you’ll protect us for food and board?” I nod. Prism takes a moment to gather her thoughts about my proposal. “Okay kid, but I’ll sweeten the pot a bit. You do good by me and I’ll give you an extra treat, sound good?” She put a bit of classy and sexy into it and this time it was my turn to think I nod.
“Oh and I don’t need to go to school so I can follow you or watch dash at a distance. My sensory abilities are that of a dragons not a pony.” She smiles at my acceptance of the deal and joins me in the bed….
Luckily for me and Prism RD was out cold for a while. Considering how small she was, the rainboom completely fucked her metabolism. The only reason she didn't pass out with me was to get us somewhere safe. If it took me, the colt with the godly healing factor an hour to return to the waking world it might take her a full day or two to get back to being herself.
I asked prism if RD knew about her job and she said she did. They needed to eat and she was a MILF, so there was no shame to it when she took to the job. She’s laying next to me cuddling me like a child and not like we just had sex for the past few hours. Prism was a veteran at knowing where and when to flip the sexy switch and by what she told me, she wouldn't quit this job even if I gave her a brick of aluminum (turns out it’s a rare metal here) it was an easy job and she got to feel good doing it (most of the time any way).
“Keep your promise, okay.” Prism said while massaging my feathers. In the medical way not the sexual way, that had already been done. Now how could this become awkward. Rainbow Dash came groggily walking into the room to snap awake and notice her mom servicing me.
“Mom, you didn't!” Prism being a veteran whorse and knowing how to fake it lies. While Dash being young and naive buys it.
I decide to roll with Prism on this one. “She was just comforting me, I was pretty messed up.” To get her to drop the subject, I gave them something that had just come to me, my backstory.
I Started from the part where dragoon eggs are usually crushed on sight by dragons out of fear. Then going into detail on how my egg was dealt with since it wouldn't break. They tossed it in a pit of lava as my mother watched in horror restrained by the enforcers. Their plan to kill me before I lived however was short lived as the lava caused me to hatch. I clawed my way out of the pit and plopped down next to my mother Nova. Now that I was hatched they tried to crush me. My bones made that task impossible, I’d only cut the shit out of anything that tried to hurt me or my mommy. And then I gave them something terrifying to chew on. One of those bastards ate me.
“They ate...you?” Prism and RD said in unison both blanching at the idea of someone eating a foal, which I technically was since I was half equine. I held a claw up in the air to get silence and continued my epic.
When the idiot ate me, the dum-bass actually swallowed. She didn't chew they figured out damn quick that my bones won’t crush, my scales were strong, and I regenerated whenever I was hurt. I clawed my way out of the dumb fuck using my claws since I didn't know how to “unsheathe” my blades yet. Turns out my claws and teeth can gut a dragon and I popped out of her stomach. The dumb-asses hadn't had enough yet they charged at me screaming “abomination” and blew fire at me. Fire to which I ate and spat back at them with twice the force. Since Equestrians know jack shit about dragons I had to explain that...
1.We could remember things from birth.
2.We Should not be able to breathe a mega-flame as soon as we’re hatched. But I did.
3.I had just gone through a rite of passage in ascending from the lava pit and as luck would have it the shaman bore witness
and that saved me from any other would be assailants coming at me yelling the a word I hate so much.
4.Despite my age (in pony years, not my actual age) my mind was the equivalent of a teenagers (that was more for Prism than
dash considering what we had just done).
With that done I continued what little was left. After the assault on me I made it clear that I wasn’t just a foal, I was a warrior capable of protecting what was important to him. So I pretty much got to integrate with the clan and within two years I had grown to the size of an eight year old (once again pony years not dragon). My body didn’t age past that point for a while but my mind got sharper. I made friends with the tribe members and they pushed me to new heights flight came to me within the lunar cycle.
The thought of me flying terrified mommy (yes I said mommy, I’m digging through old memories after all). After accelerated growth rate or not,I was still her baby. My teachers loved me for my ability to learn and grasp the abstract parts of being a dragon. While kids that were twice my (birth) age were struggling to make fire, I was the teachers aid. That part didn’t surprise the pair since they remembered my affinity for fire.
After about a month of flying my ability to see currents and approach vectors kicked in. Apparently I had yet another gift, advanced flight calculation. Mommy was starting to get alarmed at my growth both mental and physical. By that point I was what they saw before them. I had to explain that I am around Prism's age, making me twenty-five (birth age not body type). That made me older than her (she's eighteen). By pony standards I was of age however by dragon standards I was barely older than dash’s age and should not be this size nor should I be thinking like an adult. The clerics had told her that it was natural for a dragoon to grow like I had and to not worry about it anymore, for it would soon stop. She still did of course as all mommies do but she let me grow and didn't smother me like a pony mother would.
Now came the fun part, how I ended up in Cloudsdale. “I’m here on a Pilgrimage to find my true self. Something I could not do at the roost. I would have to live amongst the ponies for a while to find a balance between the two sides of me. Mom agreed that I need to find my own way. Not one that was expected of me.”
I drank a glass of water Prism got for me during a small pause. They liked my backstory and so did I. Both of them had the typical pony reaction..tears of empathy. Sadly they weren't similar in being considerate
“Wow, that was Epic. You totally kicked a bunch of older dragons flanks on your hatching day!” Dash shouted while bouncing up and down in excitement for the action she had just heard.
“Oh sweetheart, you've lived through such strife! It would be my honor to house you for your pilgrimage. If you chose to stay with us ponies feel free to stay here!” Prism cooed. Damn this mare was growing on me.
I preferred Prism’s reaction to Rainbow’s but then again I just think Prism is the better pony since she’s not well, jumping up and down saying how “awesome” it is that I can stay. But her eyes did have a small glimmer in them. I have a feeling that she has yearned for male company beyond the johns that come to and in her. And now she would have it in me. Although I may be a school colt in comparison, I have the a mental capacity far exceeding a young teenager. Meaning I wouldn't be having childish conversations with her, that’s what Dash is for.
After a talk with Prism we tell Rainbow what my role in the house would be. I’m the home security system since I’m a fucking dragoon and school foals would freak out at me being in school I wouldn't be going.
“Oh plop, I was hoping I’d get to have an awesome friend at school!” Dash Shouted
“Young lady, your language!” Prism countered
I just shake my head at the mother daughter display before me. “Prism, you and I both know she could've said something worse. And Dash I don’t want to deal with colts and fillies calling me monster and all that jazz. If you got anything from my story it should’ve been how dangerous it is to get me angry. So yeah, I’ll be avoiding anyone our age for a while. And yes that’s right I refuse to talk like a pony.”
“Well kid, I for one don’t care how you talk so long as you stay classy around my customers. Oh and try to keep my Rainbow Dash out trouble will you.” Damn is she always gonna talk to me with that sexy tone of voice. I hope so!
Prism had to call a few favors to get me citizenship and some ponies wanted more than she could give at the moment I for one was just happy that I had a place to stay and am a proud citizen of Cloudsdale, Equestria.
After my registration was complete, we went shopping for stuff for my room which would conjoin to Prism’s (For security Purposes). We ended up doing most of the shopping at a shop that focused on draconic customers. I ended up getting a nice lava bath for my room and got a normal shower attachment. As it turns out it’s not actually lava, the tub was enchanted and had multiple settings on it lava was just my favorite. Prism insisted on getting me a bed that had a diamond dust mattress. Saying that it would give a dragon the feeling of sleeping with diamonds or other gems and anyone else the feeling of sleeping on a cloud.
“I’m sorry Prism, you’re spending so many bits on me!” I stand on my hind legs, it felt more easing to do so. RD and Prism had gotten used to it but Prism pulled me right back down saying other ponies would find it intimidating. I am such a dumb-ass I didn't even think about that. Back down to all four claws I went.
“Nonsense Storm. If you have such a problem with my charity, consider it a business investment.” I wanted to rebuke that but I couldn't, she had me there. Dash just snickered at my defeat by her mother and was being really quiet.
“Dash why haven’t you been talking much or trying to get Prism to buy something.”
Dash jerks at the mention of her name and looks at me.“Shopping for home stuff is more mom’s thing. I mean, have her suggestions been wrong so far? It’s just not my scene.” Prism rolled her eyes a bit Dash didn't notice that but I did. I say nothing more to the out of her element Dash and embrace something I love doing... shopping (guys can like shopping too you know)
With that over and out of the way, we headed home. For some reason being able to call their home mine as well made me happy. Was this the harmonizing magic of Equestria making it easier for a misfit like me to find happiness?
I heard the tell tale ring of Eris contacting me. “You’re correct Storm, that’s exactly what it is. Crazy shit will happen in Equestria, just do your best to cope and not question it too much.” and the call ended without me saying a thing to her. Well this is going to be fun.
Prism went to make dinner as soon as we got home but I stopped her. “Let me make y’all something. I’m sure you’ll love it!” i I nom a ruby, which tasted like a cherry jolly rancher.
I head into the kitchen and get to business. Considering the pony diet I had to kill most of my ideas for dinner and settled with a nice veggie bowl. The bowl consisted of mashed potatoes, steamed carrots, corn, and a spritz of sour cream. I added a glass of wine for Prism and another for myself to see if I could get away with it. I sat the food and beverages down on the square table that was definitely made out of unpolished quartz. There was an imprint of Lilly’s mark on the table. It was made of a slightly different material I’m gonna say pearl. I’ll take that as a sign of stature and elegance or something.
Turns out I did she figured it would take a metric fuckton to get a me drunk and so she just let me enjoy the wine with her. Prism was at one end and Dash was at another. I, of course was sitting between them. When we’re all done Prism takes the plates. She would allow me to give no objection to the matter.
After that was done we sat on the couch and watched some TV. It was a generic pony sitcom according to Dash but I like it.
“Storm that was a lovely meal, dear” Prism said to me in her mother-like voice with a hint of sexy in it.
“Yeah It was pretty good!” Dash chimed in
I was happy they liked my cooking. “Thanks, you two. The recipe calls for salt and pepper but I didn't know how much salt would be a safe level for a pony since it doesn't do to me what it does to y’all.” I stated in an honest manner.
Prism stated her appreciation of my thoughtfulness and as we finished the show the stuff we purchased for my room came in. The installation team consisted of Pegasi, Griffins,a few unicorns with the cloud walking spell equipped, and one dragoness around my age (technical not official). The unicorns handled the creation of my room and helped with moving some of the more delicate things while the Pegasi and Griffins handled everything else. The dragoness was the one to set up my bath and shower and she calibrated it perfectly.
I rewarded all but the dragoness for the hard work with a veggie bowl. I gave the dragoness my juiciest ruby for her work and she (discreetly) moved her tail just enough for me to see the goods as she walked away. Either she’s trying to bait me for more or I’m exceedingly attractive for my age. As prism and Dash glared at the dragoness I decided to go with the later. Dash yawns and heads for bed. With Prism’s schedule clear for the full day, I decide to do the same.
“Goodnight, mom”
“Goodnight, Prism” We say at the same time.
She blew us both kisses, mine got a wink. Once again Dash missed it. I head up to my newly acquired room and retire for the night.
It's been a few months since I started living with the girls (yes I'm calling Prism a girl) she's about eight years older than me putting her at twenty. Dash's dad was a cooler who knocked her up on her first estrus. Lightning Blitz was his name and he lived up to it. As soon as prism gave him the news he blitzed outta town. Prism's parent's wanted her to give RD up, she didn't like that and moved out. She didn't tell me much about her hard times but she took to the business quickly to take care of them.
Since I didn’t go to school, I had plenty of time to get to know Prism’s coworkers. Which consisted mostly of pretty mares and a few handsome stallions. The seemed to like me and none of them thought of me as a kid either.
I was just finishing my morning flight after escorting Dash to school. She’d still make a few comments on how “unfair” it was that I didn’t have to go, but I’d remind her how old I really was each time. I've been there already and learned what I needed to know in dragon classes.
I was on my way to meet Prism for a date at this nice restaurant since her schedule allowed for it. I was wearing a denim jacket and a white fedora with a small black metal chain on its rim. What date is complete without some sort of token of affection for the female? Pausing on that thought, I stop at a flower shoppe and buy some Sky Lilies.
“Heh, I’m giving Prism Lilly Sky Lilies!” I couldn't help but laugh at the irony. Making haste to my date, I booked it.
Within minutes, I stared upon the visage of the japanese joint known as the Happy Kappa. I’m gonna enjoy eating sushi with Prism. Stepping into the joint I notice a few familiar faces
“Storm, my boy! What took you so long?” Tender Touch asked. She was a silver pony with a jet black mane and radiant blue eyes. Her cutie mark was a set of hooves kneading something. Her talent was massage, but all hers come with happy endings.
“Yeah we’re hungry, you silly colt!” a voice coming from the left cried. I just groan. Loving Embrace was Tender’s twin sister. Yes that’s right, twin whorses. Her coat scheme was the exact opposite of her sisters and her cutie mark was more of a cradling gesture. Anypony who doesn’t know her would think her talent was foal care. They would be dead wrong, her skill was the nuru massage used in soaplands. I’m not ashamed to say I was a customer. But unlike her foolish customers thinking they’ll get some from her or her sister for that matter, I actually do.
Prism face hoofed.
“Come on have a seat!” All three of the pronounced. This caused an anime style glaring war between them. Being part changeling meant I could see it as if it were.
I chose to sit between Prism and Tender. I could actually see and feel the jealousy and want flowing from Loving. I licked my lips, it was delicious. The four of us enjoyed our lunch and each others company, laughing and smiling like a bunch of idiots.
“Here storm try this one.” Prism Tuna roll
I grab the roll with my tongue, licking it all over while slowly bringing it to my mouth. “Prism, your tuna is so delicious!” I say with a bit of a sultry tone I learned from the guys. The girls were mesmerized. Loving and Tender’s mouths were agape and Prism was blushing a storm. I turn around to see every mare staring at me. “What never seen a dragon tongue before!”
I could swear some of them were salivating. The girls snapped out of their spell. “Let’s get you outta here before you get yourself gang raped!” Loving cried and the others agreed. In a matter of moments we are gone like the wind and back at Prism’s in a speed that I've never seen any of them fly before.
“Storm” all three of them said...suggestively. Oh THIS is going to be fun. Time to put this dragon tongue of mine to good use.
*Here comes the sex Ctrl+f finale for the end of the sex scene*
The four of us were heading into the house for some wholesome fun. I kicked the door open and I shit you not as soon as we were in the house they couldn't shut the door fast enough. Prism thrust lips into mine while Tender worked my wings and Loving stole first “taste” of my member.
Not wanting to feel to be left out of the action, I worked Prism’s wings with one claw while continuing the kiss. These mares truly are professionals, they had me cocked and loaded for action. Hell the wing and blowjob are amazing but I think the kiss alone would be enough.
Prism pulled away from the kiss and gave a loving moan. I of course gave her no quarter and changed my efforts from just her wings to her gushing honeypot as well with my tongue. Her head tilted back in ecstasy as I continued my efforts on her. Whilst I was working her sheath, Loving was still working on my sword with great enthusiasm.
Tender was still caressing my wings and blowing into my ear. I think it’s about time I give the sisters some attention. Not wanting to hurt tender, I focused on my tail and receded the blades until they were but bumpy ridges. Within seconds my tail was ridged for her pleasure. My tail moved to the lovely mare on my back and my free claw went to playing with Loving’s nethers. All three of them moaned in approval as I began my three way assault while they continued their pincer attack on me.
I noticed that my wings were no longer being played with so I pulled an exorcist and turned to face her (Dragons can pull a 180 degree turn of their necks). She was enjoying the attention I was giving her I couldn't help but feel glee at her facial reactions as I played with her slit.
“P..Please, stop teasing me Storm.” she cooed.and I obliged, it was time to step up my game. Removing my tongue from Prism’s I lean forward, or in this case back to press Tender’s luscious lips to mine. She put her all into the kiss our tongues desperate for the feel of the others as she hugged my back...chest and my tail was approaching her lasciviously winking hole.Her eyes rolled to the back as my tail went from sparring to a full assault. No longer was I prodding, I was pumping my tail with reckless abandon and Tender was Loving it.
Prism leaned forward a bit to watch the show. We loved her eyes on us. While Prism was distracted with the show Loving took the chance to jump in and not even a second later I was playing double dutch. Loving was going crazy on my lance while her twin was doing the same with my tail. Doing them both like this was going to leave me cramped for a little bit.
“Hey Tender how about you back up on it.” I suggested I didn't want to hurt her and this let her make her own pace. She shook her head and aligned herself with the floor until she was on all four hooves kneeling stance. Tender made a show of wantingly waving her lovely flank in the air practically screaming.
“Come on Storm gimme your tail already! I mentally sighed. She means business. As soon as my tail was low enough for insertion, she went to town. This wasn’t my first time sharing a tender touch with Tender Touch, but damn was this ever hot.
“Get it girl, back that up!” Prism hollered while touching herself. I move my claw back to her but she swats it away then cups my muzzle and kisses me. “Pay attention to them first, I’m liking the show.” The twins clamped harder on my tail and member giving off loud squeals that sound of “get back to work”.
Oh and work I did and then some. I began pumping my front and rear pistons full throttle. One thing I learned about ponies is they don’t require much revving to get to maximum torque. Sweet Luna on the moon does this ever feel good. The twins had me ready to shoot soon and giving how hard Tender is riding my tail, I think I’m gonna be firing off a full clip instead of a round ( my tail is sensitive when used in this way)
Bending Loving down so she was staring at the ground with an arched back, I put my weight into it. Giving Tender more of my tail to romp like a mare in heat “Tender, Loving. Give me MORE!” I moaned but roared the last part. If it was even possible the three of us went harder and faster. The twins were backing up and I was pumping them both like it was the only thing that mattered. My tail began to batter around in Tender and boy did she love it. I grabbed Loving’s luscious flanks and kneaded my claws in them (not too forcefully though, didn’t want to hurt her)
Prism came closer to kiss me and as soon as she did, I emptied my clip and let an exhausted Loving Embrace fall to the floor. However I wasn’t done. My cock was harder still and there were two mares I had yet to put my seed into. Prism was still watching Tender ride my tail, so I figured she didn’t want to be next. A part of me wanted to give it to Loving again. Then I thought about it, she had another hole for me to go spelunking into. Her tail swished up as if she read my mind and back into Loving I went only this time I’d be stirring up her rectum. All I needed was a little lubricant, that I so conveniently poured her love chamber full of.
Hesitating for a moment to think, I stopped in halfway to her lovely sphincter. Why just give it to her when I can make her work for it? I settled for rubbing my pogo stick between her flanks. “C'mon Storm, give it to me. Don’t tease me, I’ve been a good little filly!” Heh. Acting like a filly was her specialty , it got the stallions and some mares hotter for action. That and she her twin (opposite to me) look like fillies at first glance even though she’s.
Tender took my moment of thought to force the throbbing member that was eluding her straight into her ass. “Ouch” She just suddenly squeezed tight and took me by surprise
“You were thinking about my age weren’t you?
“Didn’t even cross my mind!” I answered sounding like a colt. She’s not the only one that knows how to do that whole age mocking thing.
I carried on with act 2 for the sisters and Prism got back to her business with a vibrating toy that was molded from me. Tender was still going and aiming for orgasm number three. Damn does this mare ever love my tail! Loving took the show from me and began toying with the tip a little then slamming back down, being careful never to fully pull it out. She wanted her ass filled to the last second. She gave me her best “come get it” look and I matched her timing Thrusting in and out, never pulling out completely.
I roared as the girls kicked it into a new gear. They were backing it up faster than a stripper that was getting twenties on stage. Tongues were lolled eyes were glazed and heads were tilting back, we were in the zone.
Prism was enjoying the show and by the sound her toy was on the FUCK ME setting (higher than high) I couldn’t keep my eyes off her, she was angelic as she moaned and groaned. as the toy wriggled in her and she played with her clit and teats.
I point a talon at her, making a “yeah baby” attitude stance while I’m destroying Loving’s ass and Enthralling Tender’s pussy. The two kept up a constant squeal and I swear Loving was drooling. I tend to Loving’s pussy with a claw (talons receded) slowly going in and out. When I get the hang of it I match my pace to my plunging of her ass. Oh did she ever love that. As if though twin synchronicity, the twins began grinding and matched their pace. “You’re next,Prism” I say in a predatory tone. Her eyes screamed “Oh, yes baby.”
I could feel it, the twins were climaxing in sync. It was a thing of beauty, but I had yet to drop load number two. Speaking of the devil summons him. With a small grunt and some force, I shoot my next load in the ass of Loving Embrace. She squealed in delight as my warm seed filled her yet again
I pull out of her and watch my seed leak to the floor as she slumped down with a goofy grin on her face. It’s time for Tender to get off my tail and get off on my dick. Tender was still riding my tail like it was the greatest thing in the world. She is in another world with that thing. while I can cum with my tail (It’s that sensitive when being played with) I’d rather have her on my dick. and Prism is adamant about watching
I remove my tail from Tender’s grasp turn around and point to my hard and throbbing dick. I motion to her mouth and she shakes her head. “This lovely thing was just in my sister’s ass, I'm not sucking that!” I roll my eyes motion for her to move back and I proceed to burn my dick. Thank the ancestors it’s scaled or that would have hurt. Healing factor or no. I grab some cloud to cool it down.
“There, it’s been cleaned” I stated flately.
“You could have just cleaned it with the cloud you know.” I point down and Tender rolls her eyes and gets to working my shaft. Playing with the tip with her wing while she continued on my shaft. .This continued for about a minute and then she finnalay statrted sucuking. Tender bobbed up and down while moving her tongue around a bt. She worked me like the pro she was. She stopped after a couple of minutes,. I wanted the blowjob, but didn't need it I was still rock hard. So it was no surprise to me when she hopped on my dick and rode me cowgirl style
We were bumping and grinding a storm. Wanting to hurry this up and get to Prism so I could fuck her till she sings songs of my praises. No offense to Tender, but she’s climaxed like five times with my tail. Tail, that’s it. As she was riding me I prodded her ass with my tail “Do it!” and that’s all I needed.Moving her for pony style so I can I began her dual penetration. Man did She enjoy that, she squeezed for dear life with both holes The fact that my tail was once again in the action mean I would be shooting two loads worth, again. But I ain’t complaining.
As our rhythmic pace continued I felt it coming, she must have as well because she’s backing it like crazy. Tender has gotta be as close as I am if not more. Within moments, we’re both cumming like crazy. she was beyond overflowing I had royally fucked her up.
I smiled my predatory smile and stared at Prism, licking my lips. Prism returned the smile in kind, “mini me” was still in her. I walk to her slowly my dick, throbbing for her embrace. When I got to the couch she pushed the toy out without even touching it. Prism was wantingly staring at me. She pulled me close to her “Rut me,NOW.” she whispered in my ear. You want a rut? Then rut you I shall, my dear!
Following her request I came closer and mounted her missionary style, not once did I take my eyes off of the angel in front of me. She was singing my favorite song, her moaning for me me! Damn was it sweet. Every sound she made riled me to be more enthralled in passion with her. In this instance I wanted nothing more that to make her quiver. She rolled to switch places with me. Having her on top brought me nothing but elation.
Prism went in for a kiss and I went the rest of the way, all the while I’m pumping and she’s grinding. Taking a firm grab of her flanks increasing my speed. Prism’s head tilted back in ecstasy as we were doing our tango. Her song was upping tempo, she was close. Once again I bring my tail into the action, not even waiting for Prism to give the go ahead. I knew she’d want it. While I was giving her a DP, I put my claws to work one worked her feathers while the other played with her clit.
She pushed down hard squealed and tightened. Prism had reached her climax, however I did not. Our song was not over I wasn’t done with her just yet. We switched into pony style without stopping and I began pumping harder. She was squealing in delight whilst I was seeking my release. Soon I felt it coming . I went harder and faster and as I went she crescendoed her moans higher and higher from the light orgasms I was giving her. Prism hit a note that would make an opera diva jealous as I poured my hot seed into her wanting womb. No lie, I was cumming for a full minute. With that our song had reached its finale .
After a few more rounds, the three of them were panting heavily and I felt like I could do more. I calmed myself down whilst laying down stroking their manes. LIly and Loving got my claws while Tender got my tail, she seemed to like that. “Epic healing factor for the fucking win”. As soon as I said that I got a ring from Eris.
“Now that was fun to watch. I think they’ve trained you too well you made them pass out!”
They’ve been teaching me the ropes and then there’s the healing factor. So yeah I’d make this happen. What else were you expecting, Eris.
“Well, I wasn’t expecting you to do that to them. That’s for sure. I’ll be having a taste of that next time you go to the grotto! You hear me mister?”
Yeah I hear you Eris. Oh shit it’s 15:00! Dash will be here in twenty minutes. I quickly knocked everyone out of their orgasmic stupors, not wanting Dash to see my handiwork. We immediately air out the room and hit the showers. I'm not ashamed to say that Loving Prism and I had quickie in said shower. I had thoroughly fucked Tender up, so she abstained from the sex and just watched while “washing herself”. She wasn’t fooling us.
Thanks to high wind currents, the house was free of the scent of sex and we had gotten away with our five hour romp The furniture had been cleansed of any signs of the fun we had. Just as I finished the final check, Rainbow Dash walke in the door.
‘’How was your day at the Academy, hon.” Prism cooed at her daugher. Dash attends The Cloudsdale Weather Academy better know as the Academy to the locals.Since she passed her flight test way early. the test isn’t usually taken until you’re fourteen and she was a whopping eight
“”It’s going fine. We’re on advanced cloud manipulation and the effects of chaining lightning for a more fierce storm!”
I couldn’t help but laugh at how much of an “egghead” she sounded like right now. But I guess that’s what she is when it comes to weather. Eris did say that my mere presence would cause subtle to massive changes in Euus, this must be one of them.
I had one eye open as she was discussing current mechanics to her mother and the other girls who were lost. I however was following every word. Being part Pegasus meant I could manipulate weather and oh did the Dragons ever take advantage of that. My smile was growing wide and I sure Dash could see it.
‘Hey mom I was going to go to Smasher’s with some friends, you don’t mind do your?” She was a level below the puppydog eyes that all mares can do for some reason.
“Okay, you can go. Just make sure you’re back by six young lady. You aren’t a teenager like your friends and you have an earlier curfew to make.” Rainbow squealed in delight that she could hang with her friends.
Heading into the closet I grab my favorite jacket modeled after the Shadowbolts. I draped it over her. “You’ll need a jacket if you going out there, love. It’ll be a little nippy in a bit.” I said in a fatherly tone.
“Thanks, Dad.” Dash had made a point in calling me that considering how lovey dovey Prism and I can be. We all know she’s doing that as a joke so none of us take it seriously. She still puts on the jacket since she’s been coveting it since I made it. It was modeled after MJ’s Bad jacket with the shadowbolts motif fused into it. It was a little big on her, but it made her look badass. At most it looked like a hand me down, but an awesome one.
Dash booked it to Smasher’s. With a little thought I was in the mood for a their salmon burger. “Well ladies, I’m off to Smasher’s as well.” Prism gave me a “You’re worrying too much” look. “In case you’ve forgotten, we didn’t finish our Lunch today and I’m still in the mood for something fishy. I promise I’ll just get a carryout.”
“Get me a Fu burger while you’re there okay, daddy.” Prism whispered the last part in my ear seductively. My dick was in danger of unsheathing just from her tone.
I turn to the twins, who were snickering. “Popcorn and hayfries, right?” They nodded in approval that I remembered their usual. Out the door I went and all that was left was a plan of action.
Going fast but not full speed (I’m not gonna do a boom in the middle of a city) in the opposite direction of Dash. I find myself in Smashers. While heading to the desk to make my order, I spotted Dash with her friends having some fun conversation. I do my best to restrain myself from using my awesome dragon hearing and just focus on the on the skyball game on the TV the Baltimare Ravens were being destroyed by the Cloudsdale Abes. I actually got to catch the last ten minutes of the game by the time my food was done.
Paying as quickly as I can I exit the store food in towe. Rainbow’s crew was currently bashing on appetizers, so they’d be there for a while. With my business complete, it time for me to jet on home. Heading just outside of the city’s limits, I boom my way home. Knowing how those mares can be when they get hungry.
“Honey, I’m home!” I declare as I opened the door. It was just too tempting to resist. Tender and Loving relieve me of my pack and proceed to extract their goodies. Tender handed (I refuse to say hoofed) me my burger. The three of them began bashing on their orders while I headed back out.
“Where are you going, Storm?” Prism asked me. Ever the worrywort, this one.
I”m going to New Trend (Hot Topic). They had some accessories that Dash would just love. I figured she’d want to look her best for meeting my old pal Tidus!”
“Great, he’s going on about that again! Just because you came from the same pride doesn’t mean you know him!” The girls all nodded their heads in approval at Lovings rant. I’ll let them think what they want, I really do know Tidus and I’d be taking Dash to meet him later next week for the victor’s parade. They won by a landslide and the ending shot was his Jecht shot (I’m not kidding here that was the shot) She is going to love me for this.
I’m finishing up my burger as I arrive at the mall, going the actual way this time since I don’t have to avoid dash. Speaking of which, she should be done with Smasher’s by now. Hopefully she went home. I fly up to the third level and enter New Trend only to see Dash and her friends. Since I’m a regular here my presence disturbed no one. I stayed in the shadows while mock shopping and doing something I wasn’t proud of...eavesdrop on Dash tachi.
At first glance the girls seemed to be shopping and all was well. But to a trained professional in situational analysis, this seemed fishy. They were inconspicuously huddled together, stopping any onlookers from seeing anything other than a bunch of teens looking at cute garments. They showed no distress in their faces but dash seemed a bit uncomfortable.
It wasn’t hard at all for me to find out why with my dragon sight and hearing. But for the soldier in me I didn’t need any of that to know they were shoplifting. “Come on Dash, you’re embarrassing me. I said you could hang!” The younger of the four teens quietly exclaimed. She was a griffin and most definitely not Gilda. While she was a bit of hardcore, she was no still a law abider.
“Does the poor baby need some help? Here this’ll look good on you.” This one was a pegasus and she was discreetly putting a set of wing bands in her jacket, my jacket these bitches were using the dash as their muel. The three girls would get a pat down, but Dash wouldn’t for two reasons. She was far too young and innocent to know of the evils of shopliftingI was a good friend of the owner of the place and I came with her a lot. (I don’t think they’re aware of the second reason otherwise they’d go for more expensive shit)
“I don’t think this is smart guys!” the third member of the group of five muttered. This one was Gilda, attagirl put Dash on the right track!
“Did we ask for your opinion, shortstack? You’re only here because Dash insisted”. The final member of the five other than Dash spoke up. This one was a dragon and by the looks of it she was similar to me, minus the Dragoon part. The greedy bitch had red scales and black pegasus wings. Another part of the bitch that screamed of a DP (Dragon Pony highrid) was her eyes. They were a deep green and were...glowing. Taking a second look at the bitch it was a changeling feeding on the medley of emotions. Gotta hand it to her she wasn’t using any magic to get her food, just pure temptation.
With a hearty whiff I could tell this was a sentinel. Meaning she was smart, very smart. Sentinels adapted to the task at hand and were a staple for battle. And with another I could tell she was ronin. I don’t really care how she got here, but I could use a sentinel in my pocket
“That you could, Storm. Now go get her!”
Like you have to tell me twice to get a tactical commander. But I’ve got to deal with the task at hand, keeping dash on the straight and narrow! She gave me a mental facepalm. Right, she’s the element of loyalty. She’ll be a good girl, I hope.
They continued to put a few (unnoticible) items in the jacket. As they did this and Dash did nothing, I was getting upset. I wasn’t alone there Gilda walked off in the opposite direction of the group, my direction. When she got close, I draped my wing over her and pulled her out of the groups view.
Gilda felt my warmth and could tell I was at least part dragon from it so she didn’t fidget...much. She craned her neck working her bird half to see it was just me. “By Bloodwing’s beak don’t do that to me! You nearly scared the life outta me.” She hit my shoulder a bit.
She took my lead and started window shopping. An item caught her interest. It was a beautiful violet choker with diamond dust on it. The design was of a bird taking flight, wings full glory. And to top it off it had a ovalish violet sapphire with a glassy polish in the center. One look at this thing and I could tell it belonged on Gilda’s neck. I grab it off the rack and buy it shaking a claw at the clerk, I didn’t need a bag for this lovely piece of work would be going to it’s new master.
I return to Gilda, item and receipt in claw. She lowered her head with a sad look on her face. “That’s gonna look awesome on miss Prism.” The sadness was even in her voice. Gilda Bloodwing, daughter of King (It’s his name and title) Bloodwing. Was cut off by from her birthright by her father because of some bitch named Catherine. Luckily, He let her leave with her sworn bodyguard d'Artagnan to look protect her from anyone who would see her harmed. But they had almost no money and were staying in one of our houses.
“I know it will, but it would look stunning on you” I gave her a small kiss as I was placing her new chocker. Damn was it sexy on her. A part of me wanted to kiss her more.
“You know I don’t like charity, Storm!” Gilda being the princess she is (not the prissy type) had her pride. Broke or no.
I stroked her fur a bit. “Now how is giving you something that belongs on you charity? The way I see it I just gave a gift to a girl I care about and I won’t hear anything else on the subject. Now back to dash.”
The girls were leaving, all the items they had intended to steal were in Dash’s jacket. They just talked the usual teen ramble as they walked out unaware that Dash didn’t join them. Gilda and I kept hopeful eyes on her. Our hope was not in vain, she began to put everything back. She was homefree...almost. Unique Swag had to pick that moment to come out of her office.
Unique was a unicorn with a blue coat and lovely teal eyes. Her horn was a bit fatter than the usual unicorn horn and also smaller, but she was a unicorn none the less. Unique grabbed Dash’s hoof as she was putting the last item back. A scowl present on her face.I think it was time for a rescue.
“Good job Dash, you did the right thing!” both I and Gilda declared. The made the scowl on Unique’s face change to a bit of a smile, but only a bit.
“She may have done the right thing but I’m still gonna need to find those other girls. They’re ‘ve been robbing me blind and I never had any proof, until today!” Unique rested her eyes on Dash and then motioned to a small hidden camera that I had spotted when I walked in. Sad part was that this was one of the first security cameras in Equus. I should know, she blew me to be the test user after all. Getting my hands on an Equestrian AV camera was a pain in my scaley ass. Converting it to be covert was just a nightmare but oh was the reward of having this shit and being the only way to obtain it worth it. I have a feeling that the royal guard’s gonna come knocking round my door when word of this tech gets out.
“I need to remind you that you can’t question her without her mother present?” I had to bring the law into this, I wouldn’t be right if she didn't do it to do the right thing.
“Or her legal guardian, in which case you’re here.” I made an urk sound, being her family’s bodyguard had and being present made the questioning of dash possible. Horesapples.
“Dash, Unique's got their faces. All she need is for you to give us their names.” I sternly say to dash (damn am I acting like a parent or what?). I let it sink in a bit. I could feel her emotions swirling like crazy, she was a loyal one. Hopefully that loyalty would swerve to me and my friend the owner of this business (New Trend is currently in it’s pioneer phase).
Dash lowered her head in shame and walked towards the back, good she’s gonna snitch! Gilda and I followed Unique and Dash to the back room and then into Unique’s office, where the camera controls and monitors are. Unique had trouble rewinding the display so I did it for her. “Pay close attention this time Swagger.” She gulped a little and nodded, knowing I was annoyed because I addressed her by her second name.
The the pointing of whooves and dropping of names began I didn’t even bother to listen to the first two. Then she got to the changeling. “The dragon there is named Mystique.” Dash stated with a small bit of shakiness. Oh sweet Luna! A changeling named Mystique. Now that was funny. With a second look I noticed a yellow glow around her, this was fear. Time to go Hal Jordan and kick Sinestro’s ass. With that recognition, my serious face was on.
“Don’t bother with the dragon she’ll be long gone.” Unique and Dash look at me quizzically. I make eye contact with Gilda and we both gave a look that could only mean one thing, fucking ponies. “If she’s the leader and Dash here hasn’t returned by now, I’m guessing she’s gone underground.”
“But we’re in Cloudsdale!” Ancestors FUCKING DAMN IT Dash! I must’ve been banging my head on the wall. They were looking at me.
“I meant she’s gone incognito, vamos, amscray!” Dash still had that puzzled look on her. I took a breath and remembered that she’s only nine. “She took a dash and is under the radar. If I were her, I’d abandon any loose ends, Meaning she left her friends high and dry.”
I could tell Dash was about to say something like “That’s horrible” but oh well, it’s the truth. Lucky for me Gilda put a claw on her and shook her head. Breathing in I access the hive mind delving in and searching for any changelings in Cloudsdale. I took a few minutes, but I found the bitch. “Leave town and I will hunt you to the end’s of Equus. Do you hear me girl.” I used my full mental force displaying that I was way higher in the hierarchy than her. I could tell that my brute force method had made her freeze in a feeling I hated the taste of in most circumstances, fear. Oh and was it ever frightful. Keeping that tone I warned her to abandon that guise and pick something else and I dropped my address. “Be there or I will find you and kill you for endangering my kin.” I think I got my point across, I could feel her moving in that direction.
“You did good Rainbow Dash, you did good.” Gilda professed unto her friend in approval. To put it bluntly, I was proud of the both of them. Walking out and back to the sales floor and looking around. I grab not just the brace that Dash had put back, but the whole damn wing guard. The full set cost about fifty bits (roughly 200 USD according to Eris) but Dash did something to earn it. Considering how much she loved skyball, she’d be need these anyway. I walk back into the back room Items in an enchanted box. Heh it’s bigger on the inside the doctor must’ve inspired a unicorn to invent transdimensional engineering.
“Here ya kid, you earned this.” I say with a little stress on the word kid, which is funny when you think about my technical age. Dash goes for the box and I pull it back. “Don’t open it until next week when I take you to see. Wait for it….” Gilda kicks me in the shin “Tidus of the Cloudsdale Abes!” Her eyes widened and I could feel the joy seeping out. For some reason the happiness of Prism and Dash filled me up more than love or more importantly my food of choice, lust.
Gilda grabs me and moves us out of pony earshot. “You do actually know Tidus and not just know of him right? I made an effort in showing her my irritation at that question, I’m getting sick and tired of this shit. “Okay, don’t need to get offended. I was just checking!”
One phone call later (yes they have them but they look like they belong in the eighties) The guard was enroute to the residences of the other two thieves. They’re back in the store twenty minutes later with one set of parents (the griffon was an orphan) and a small group of guards And oh shit, there’s a Justicar. Well these girls are gonna be behind bars or doing some extremely discounted work. Equestrian law states that checks may be docked for the stolen items but they may only be docked to the last ten bits. It’s the same with Federal level dockings.
“You are charged with felony level theft and one charge of attempted theft. What do you plead?” The Justicar said.
“Not guilty!” The pegasus pleaded
“Nolo contendere” The Griffon sung a different tune.
I decide to step in for the griffon, who looks like she could be reformed. The pegasus however, was a lost cause. “Are you sure about that” I snap repeatedly for a name to fill the blank.
“Nocturne Sunbeak, sir.” she hung her head in shame. Wait she just called me sir. I must be in “adult mode”. She raised her head and looked at the Justicar. “I say innocent on the felony level theft. But to be honest I’m guilty of misdemeanor level theft and guilty to the attempted theft as well. I swear, I only took what I needed to survive!.” Both the Justicar and I smiled at her honesty.
Being part changeling means I can see emotions, so I’m a damn good lie detector. There was no deceit on her person. That and I had watched the full month and after doing the math, she was right the items she stole were worth about twenty-five bits. That and she didn’t appear until the last second to last crystal.
“You’ll still be doing some time in a prison you lady. You might learn to never commit a crime again after you go to the attic!” Both I and the Justicar didn’t like the tone that “Not guilty”s” father was taking. He was most likely trying to get some heat off his little filly. Well I’m about to take a shit on that.
I get up on my hind legs, putting my claws to my side and begin walking to the bastard. “Sir, that proof the Justicar mentioned just so happens to be video surveillance!” I snarl with a bit of spittle to sell the “Bitch I eat people” angle while saying that. The parents and Not Guilty’s eyes went wide in horror as I pressed play from the beginning crystal. “Now my girl Nocturn, and yes you will be working for me and not Unique since she can’t afford to hire anybody else. Didn’t appear until the second to last crystal!” I put that in to prove my point and then played the snippet from the last crystal. The father of Not Guilty slumped down even further than when I snarled at him when faced with irrefutable proof that his girl had done wrong.
Pulling Unique aside, I pay her the 40 bits for the items Nocturn stole. Unique then dropped the charges made on Nocturn, knowing that after 1 night of working with me she’d have worked off her debt. But at least the girl would have a legit source of income.
“The charges have been lifted from Nocturne Sunbeak. As for…” I didn’t want to know her name “You will be sentenced to work off the twice the amount worth of merchandise you stole by working at the Cloudsdale Department of Sanitation.” The Justicar sternly stated. I couldn’t help but laugh at the fact that the little shit’s gonna be cleaning shit. I love this part of the Equestrian legal system. You have to do something really bad to get thrown in prison and something unthinkable to get sent to Tartarus.
Not Guilty had fucked up because a false plea leads to a double sentence. Not Guilty’s parents were pissed, but there was nothing they could do after being show the hard evidence that she had stolen and had been doing so since the first record crystal. I’m really glad I took the time to make those things.Too bad that the only crystals I can make right now just function as storage devices. Who knows with enough time and engineering, I could make a small computer or telecommunications device.
As the guard and Justicar were leaving with Not Guilty and her parents, I walked up to Nocturne. “I didn’t pay your debt out of charity, it was a business investment. I can feed and clothe you, If you wear clothes at all. And I’ll also give you a roof to live under, but you’ll be working for me as a “service lady”.” Nocturne nodded her head.She must know a good deal when she sees it, I guess. “I’ll be taking forty percent of your daily earnings until you pay off your debt. Then I’ll be getting a twenty percent monthly cut for protection. License or no, some mares and stallions will make violent attempts at muscling in or your action. It’ll take anywhere between a week to a month to pay me off depending on how popular you are and until then, your protection fee is waived.”
Nocturne nodder her head again. “So what about training? I hate to rain on your parade, but I’m not exactly experienced in this.” I raised a scaley brow at her, knowing full well what she meant. I just wanted her to say it, that delicious word that meant she was untouched by anyone. “I’m a virgin okay!”
Gilda and I chuckle a bit, she knows where I’m going with this and Dash had long since left the room. Flying home to jump up and down with glee no doubt. “I’ll be giving you a weeks worth of training, so you’ll be fine. As long as I get my cut after you pay me off, I won’t have Prism fire your ass meaning you get to keep you room and the free meals that come with it. You won’t have to worry about giving her a cut, she gets a fee once the stallion or mare enters her abode and views the catalogue. Not to mention she gets cuts from others but since you’re my enlistee, you won’t have to worry about that.”
Nocturne asks me just how big Prism’s cadre is. So I inform her that it’s big enough to pay for itself four times over since there aren’t many (legal) whordes in Cloudesdale and we are by far the most exotic, thanks to me enlisting others. But for some reason Prism will only let me get a finders fee. I'm sure she’ll waive the cut from Nocturne if I beg (eat the shit out of her) enough. Also the housing complexes are my property, not hers so I have at least some leverage when it comes to this. It’s a good thing that property taxes are relatively nonexistent since we live on fucking clouds.
“You’ll be staying in the Griffon wing, hon.” I say to Nocturne with as much love as I can without being creepy. “So I’ll have GIlda, yes she’s that Gilda take you to your room. Which should be next to adjacent to hers and don’t prod into her personal business or d'Artagnan will have to stab the fuck out of you with, well her rapier.” She audibly gulped at the concept of angering a holy knight of Griffonia. Her training would begin tomorrow, for now I had to send a letter to my old pal Tidus about the shit that just happened. His reaction letter would be funny as all fuck (Yes we write to each other, it’s more private that way).
A week had passed since the incident and the victors’ parade was upon us Dash was ready to open her gift from me. Ever the loyal filly, she actually waited for me to get up. (I had a long night “playing” with my new toy as Prism would say) My usual schedule has me awake at about 0400, however today I didn’t wake until 0630. Rainbow was up and jumping holding the box since 0600, an unusual time for her to be up and atem. Dash looked at me with the biggest grin. “Okay you can open it now.” I said after taking literally a minute to wake up (I love this healing factor shit).
Dash tore open the box like it was a hearths warming gift. The look on her face was worth more than the fifty bits I blew on the equipment I knew she’d use.”Can you help me put these on, Storm?” Dash said with excitement. She had been begging for a new set of guards since she started outgrowing her old ones.
I walk to her and helped her don her new sporting gear. The guards sported Cloudsdale blue and and gold she looked good in it. But the guards weren’t the only piece of the equipment. She wanted to put on the helmet, but I stopped her. “No need for the helmet, Dash. They won’t let you in after party if you’re in full gear! “ Dashes ears perked up and her wings shot up in excitement at the mention of a the after party. It helps to have connections.
“Hey, can you not act like a lunatic this early in the morning Rainbow Dash!” Mystique (or my toy as Prism calls her when we’re alone) who now went by Puzzle Piece (real name this time) groaned not used to my schedule. I gave her some slack since it’s only been a week since she became mine through oath. I found her new form, enchanting to say the least. She was a jet black pegasus with a white mane that had small streaks of black in it and grey eyes. As for the cutie mark, she was sporting what looked like an empty puzzle square. She was about between me and Dash in the size department and her curves were incredible. Almost hard to believe she's a filly, Prism was actually threatened by her promiscuity. Funny part is she bunks with Dash, meaning she woke not too long after Dash.
Puzzle was bashing on cereal. She was a hybrid like me, meaning she needed normal food in her diet along with emotions to stay fed. Puzzle, was a pegasus hybrid. I’m just glad she took my advice about using her other half. Us hybrids have two forms. For me it’s the form I’m always in and then there’s my true changeling dragon form, which frightened even Eris and she’s seen some shit. For some reason Puzzle’s changeling form is just as enchanting as her pegasus form. So I guess it must be the dragon part that causes the scary look, oh well. Not like I plan on revealing that part of me to anyone anytime soon.
“Don’t even pretend that you’re not excited to see Tidus. You’re going too, you know!” Dash said indignantly and stuck her tongue out at Puzzle.
The two of them were arguing like an old married couple. It was only a matter of time till they did something stupid, wake Prism before 0800. We’re all gonna be in for it if I let this go on any longer. “If you two make me have to deal with a grumpy Prism, I swear to my ancestors that we won’t go. I say in a “shut the fuck up” tone of voice, that got the both to shut their traps and eat their cereal. After successfully getting them to shut up, I made mystique kcal some eggs and ham. The fillies gagged at the smell of my delicious bourbon hickory smoked ham being grilled on a skillet about five feet away from them. That'll teach him not to annoy me this early in the morning.
I cracked a few eggs and added some powdered emerald. I’d been having the draconic answer to green eggs and ham today. By the time I had finished cooking it was about 0730, so I thought now I should work on the other half Prism's breakfast Before I did that, I put a lid on my plate (enchanted) to keep my food warm while I made Prism’s.
I started cutting some potatoes up with one of my claws and cooked her eggs with the other. “This is missing something.” Then it hit me, Salmon. Prism loves salmon. My attention went to the fridgen. Using my tail, I opened the chiller and grabbed the salmon (ground and pre smoked by me) and added some seasoning to the mix. I really love being able to do three things at once!
As the food was finishing I placed it on a plate that rested upon a tray, The only thing this was missing was some orange juice. With that thought in mind I grabbed an orange and removed it of its juicy contents and repeated until I had two full glasses of orange juice. I grabbed both trays and walked to Prism’s room.
“Wake up honey, breakfast is served.” I said whilst lifting the lid from her breakfast and wafting.
Prism began to stir in her sheets. Oh sweet Luna, she’s so cute when she sleeps. “Something smells good. What’s on the menu, love?”
“Eggs and potatoes o'brien with a side of honey smoked salmon and salmon biscuits for the both of us. As for me, emerald eggs and ham. I also squeezed us some orange juice!” Prism smiled at the breakfast in bed I had made for her. I was rewarded with a kiss, that tasted of morning breath. I was tempted to assail her tongue with my own, but that will have to wait. It’s going to be a fun day.
Two hours and a very fun shower with Prism later, we were all ready to get to the parade. It wasn’t schedule until 1400 but we (or at the very least I) had to be there early since I’d be on the float with Tidus. As soon as I checked us in I noticed I had a small problem. Tidus had only given me two full access (float riders) passes and the rest were normal VIP passes, that jackass. This was going to be a hard decision.
“I can’t believe we get to ride on the float!” Dash squealed
“Yeah this is gonna be awesome! You’re the greatest, boss!
“I have to admit, I had my doubts. But you really do know Tidus!” Prism was a big fan of the Abes as well, I think her devotion was rivaled only by Dash.
Oh this is gonna be hard. Tidus when I get my claws around you I’m gonna beat your scaley ass. “Well, about that. There’s one problem.” The girls stared at me for an answer. “Tidus gave me two full access passes and two standard VIP passes and one of the FA passes is specifically for me. So I can only take one of you on the float, but you’ll all meet Tidus at the party!”
I was waiting for them to do the eye thing that all mares now how to do...and there it is. They all want to be on the float with me and Tidus. Great, just great! Prism was doing the sultry look that I love so fucking much and Puzzle was shaking her thing for me . While Dash moped on the ground.
“What’s wrong, Dash?” I ask in a tone of genuine worry. I've never seen her like this, ever.
“I can’t compete with that!” She pointed to the display of sexyness taking place behind me. While she was crying honest tears the whole time. “Just promise me you’ll have fun out there Mommy!” Prism nodded
Ok so It’s time to make my decision. Pick Puzzle or Prism and be rewarded with hot steamy sex or pick dash and make the sad filly happy again. I begin to move to Prism, but change my mind and about-face to Dash and put the FA pass on her neck. The others were irked slightly at me Paragon decision even Eris was expecting me to fuck one of the other girls. Prism and Puzzle put their passes on and pouted a bit.
“Come here you!” Prism was smiling as she pulled me into a bathroom and locked the door. One mind blowing blowjob later. “I was being selfish, thanks for choosing Dash.” She looked at my still throbbing member and unlocked the door. “Puzzle get in her, Dash don’t let anyone near here!” Dash nodded.
“Since he didn’t pick you want to make him apologize?” Prism said to Puzzle in a slightly vengeful tone.
“Oh, I think I like that Idea. Are you gonna be helping?” Prism just shook her head no. I really hope this isn’t gonna be what I think it is. “You chose Dash instead of me, boss! It’s time for that apology!” She sat on the toilet and opened her legs while Prism walked out with Dash. Puzzle locked the door with her magic, careful to focus her aura on the lock. Her aura would go unnoticed by most since it was the same color as the lock, gray. As soon as the door was locked, we got to business.
After “apologizing” to puzzle and washing the smell of sex off of the both of us, we were ready to go. We got here about an hour and a half earlier than we needed to so after the time was spent with Puzzle and Prism, We were ready to go to our designated places. Dash and I waved as we went into the double doors that they couldn’t get into and they headed for the VIP area to watch the festival and wait for us to at the end of it.
I was walking in on my hind legs, claws in my jacket. While Dash was walking next to me looking around in awe at all the parked floats. “Wow, there’s so many of them and they look so awesome!” Dash said with gusto.
I didn’t respond to Dash’s wonder. Especially when we got to the Abe’s float. Dash was literally a kid in a candy store. Really, the sponsor for Abes float was a candy store. Needless to say I got Dash a little something, since she forgot her coin purse at home. She got roughly three bits worth of candy, that I had delivered to the house.
“By my ancestors storm, you really did settle well with ponies!” Tidus gave me a pat on the back. Dash went silent. Nerves, I guess. Tidus was a white dragon whose alabaster scales almost put Celestia (still haven’t seen her) to shame, almost. Despite how I was talking to him, Tidus was my sempai. He helped me learn what I know about weather control since he’s a feathered dragon as well. One of the few in the pride. They were sad to see him go but this was his path. He had red eyes (no albino joke intended) and the same hairstyle as the real (as real as he can get) Tidus. He even sported a necklace of the symbol of the Abes, two lightning bolts between two blue spread wings.
“Tidus, you newt. Do you know how much trouble you caused me? Why didn’t you just give me four like I asked, you’ve got the pull to make that happen. I had to choose Dash here over her mother and my servant.”
“Yeah, sorry bout that. But the mayor’s brats are going to be on the float. I made it clear that you were a must have for me and I could only allow you a plus one for the float. But don’t worry, your girls will be pampered Vip section of the tower. They got the best seats in the house since the parade made the town a no fly zone.” I blanched at the mention of the mayor’s kids. They were made Diamond Tiara look like a saint!
“It’s cool man, I made the right choice and life rewarded me for it! So no harm no foul. Now, would you please say hi to my filly friend?” Dash was shaken out of her stupor and turned bright red her wings pomfed in embarrassment and Tidus just grinned.
“Hey idiot, any idea what you just said?” Eris tolled in
I didn’t say anything wrong I just introduced Dash as my… Oh shit!
“Let me rephrase that. Please say hi to my friend, the filly behind me.”
Tidus walked up to Dash and held out a claw. “Hi, I’m Tidus. But judging by the gear, you already know that. So what’s your name, cutie.”
“R, Rainbow Dash!” She blurted out. “It’s awesome to meet you, mr. Tidus!” Tidus returned the pleasure and we walked to our float. It was much to my chagrin that my eyes met Silver Lining, the youngest sister (as is, she’s no friend of mine.) Her flank was blank and her coat, like her name was pure silver. The mane was blue and so were her eyes. I try not to look too much at her, while I have no problem looking at a hot filly (Puzzle’s proof of that) she was an epic bitch.
My irked look turned into a full on smile when I laid eyes on her elder sister (this one was a friend and customer of mine) Nimbus Kicker. She rocked a blue coat with a mane of a slightly different shade. Her cutie mark was actually hooves clearing clouds. It makes sense that she’s one of Cloudsdale’s chief weather engineers. She didn’t even need her father to get that seat since she most likely calculated what weather patterns we needed to have a perfect day today.
“Hey Tidus, how much time till we leave?” I asked.
“About an hour.”
“Hang out with Dash, will ya?” I had planned to do some talking with Nimbus. Walking up to Nimbus with a little bit of a swag to my walk, I greet her and her sister. Lining is young, she can be talked out of the dark side. That and I really want to have a chat with Nimbus, she’s cool.
Nimbus hailed me down as I was getting closer to her. “Nice job on the climate control, Kicker!” Nimbus was happy at my acknowledgement. It must’ve been hard to calculate the weather we needed to have all week to get the conditions we needed for the festival.
“It’s good to see you here, Storm!” Nimbus made no effort in hiding how happy she was to see me. She was doing that thing mares do with their hips when they’re horning. I pointed to the concealed wagon of the float. “Oh this will be fun!”
While I would love to say I got it on with Nimbus, we didn’t get past making out. Having sex in the wagon would not be a good idea, the smell and all. After a little bit of stress relief for Kicker, we came out of the wagon and just talked casually. “Thanks for that, Storm. I’ve been pent up all week.” Nimbus sighed in relief. Wow maybe my special talent is stress relief...NAH!
We were only gone for about five minutes, so that didn’t arouse any suspicion. Well much anyway. I made a point in kicking it with Kicker every now and again. When we went topside, we went to our places Kicker and Lining got seats in the front of the float, while Tidus, Dash, and I got the stage part. The plan was pretty simple. Tidus and I would circle each other in the air then we’d blow fire in air and proceed to burn the float to reveal it’s true nature.
The float was actually made of a unique crystal that contain the glow of our flames. It worked perfectly with our flame colors. His green and my white. Dashes role would be to fly threw a few flaming circles then set up the clouds make an Abes symbol, the Tidus and I would then set ablaze for an awesome effect. It would mostly be Tidus though, since my fire is white.
The parade began about ten minutes after the briefing. It was the moment of truth, our float was up next. I can’t fucking believe this. I did my best not to laugh at the Irony of this shit. Eris, did you have anything to do with this?
“Well of course I did, sweetness. Now keep doing you….Storm look out.!” I doge what appears to be a gigantic motherfucking tail. Peering in with my draconic vision for a better look at what it belonged to. Oh fuck me sideways, It’s a sky Serpent!
Gathering as much strength as I could to shout in the royal Canterlot voice, I cried. “Sky Serpent!!!!!” That got the parade goers to fly away for safety. No one in the sky was safe from these things, not even dragons. I turn to Tidus, it was time for me to cowboy up and do gain what I damn well knew my cutie mark would be. Excessive violence in the name of defense. Problem with sky serpents is they don’t stop till they drop. “Tidus, lets rock! The guard can’t handle this shit! Kicker, please get Dash and Lining the fuck out of here and don’t come back. Foals should not see what me and Tidus are about to do to this flying sushi platter!” Kicker did as a said and ran with the girls. Dash put up some resistance, until she saw murder in my eyes.
“I feel more like fried eel though, Storm! But that things got thick armor!” Tidus said in a little bit of worry.
“Don’t worry my friend, I’ll be taking point! I’ve picked up a new bag of tricks since last we met! Just be ready to light it up when I say to.” Tidus nodded in understanding. As soon as our battle began, music started playing. “Fuck yeah!” I cried as I leapt, or in this case dove into action with Tidus on my 6 high. Spinning in a corkscrew, I picked up speed and flew and spread my ink around the overgrown Unagi and shot up in the air before i could be chomped on. That would hurt a lot. Healing factor or no.
“Light em up Tidus!” The two of us sent a flurry of flame down on the serpent. Stopping when we saw the damage had been done to it’s armor plating. I coulda just hacked away at it, but someone would get hurt. Casualties are a no go for me right now. “Let’s get in there and do some serious damage!”
“Let’s do this!” Tidus cried, ready for that things blood.
Tidus sunk his claws in the back and tore a small chunk out, oh it didn’t like that at all. Tidus got smacked by the tail in an upwards motion. That thing was gonna eat him! I needed to save my friend. I was hauling ass going at breakneck paces. I couldn’t boom here, the aftermath would cause windows to shatter and debri to spread and hurt innocent bystanders that fled for safety. My axe blades weren’t gonna cut it. I needed more distance and I also needed power. That’s when it hit me, I need a katana. Extending and folding my bone blades gave me just that. It hurt for a bit, but that passed quickly. My bones blades were now in my claws via my wrist.
I barely made it to Tidus on time and the unagi just snapped up some cloud. He was out of it. I left him to a higher up cloud and descended take on the ugly fucker. Hopefully Tidus would join me soon, he looked like he was coming to as I began my descent. Much to my chagrin, the dumbass guard tried to combat the beast. “Get out of here! You’re not warriors, you’re peacekeepers!” The fact that I was a draconic and soaked in its blood made my words ring in their ears. They were gone.
It was time for me to cut away at this bitch piece by piece. I made short work of its tail thanks to my katana mode. Doing another swirl, I blew fire at the Unagi once more. Only this was more powerful thanks to my mixing the ink and slime together. Ink plus slime equals boom. Unfortunately for me, I was getting a little dizzy since I was constantly doing this move while flying around its danger zones. I was doing good until the fuck got my leg as I was saving a fallen guard. It gnawed at my constantly regenerating flesh and indestructible bone. “RUN!!” I screamed at the guard, still feeling the gut wrenching pain of having my leg torn to pieces by one of the few things that are strong enough to bite through my scales. She obliged and took a swit leave.
“Let me go, you FUCKER.! I’LL EAT YOU FOR DINNER! I cried as I attempted to slash or poke it’s eyes out. But the damn thing was actually smart about this and constantly thrashed me around trying to do something that not even it could do to me. It was trying to tear my leg off. This thing didn’t want a meal at this point, it wanted me to hurt! every time I landed a blow, it was too weak or too shallow due to lack of centrifuge.
I thought I’d be it’s chew toy for a while. Until a massive fireball struck the thing right in the kisser! It’s jaw loosened enough for me to do something about it I was sick and tired of this bitch so I flew right in to it mouth and bashed its teeth in with my axe mode. Then I flew out of it’s mouth and switched back to katana mode and flew to the ionosphere. Motioning myself downwards, I boomed while corkscrewing letting out my most fearsome roar. Tidus kept it busy with fireballs but moved when he saw my whirlwind of death. I went straight through the unagi’s head. Needless to say there was no longer a head left, but TIdus and I would have a fucking feast.
Tidus flew down to me with surprise and concern in his eyes. “Holy shit, bro! You obliterated that thing!” He backed away a bit, I was still in kill mode. We both look up at the jumbotron to notice that the whole fucking fight was televised. How’d they even shoot this shit? Must’ve shot with special zoom lenses or magic amplifiers. My family flew right to me.
“Storm, are you okay!” All three of them asked in unison. They weren’t asking if I was okay as in still hurt. They all knew about my healing factor. They also knew that pain lingers for a bit
“I’m fine, I’m just a little hungry.” I said icily while sheathing my blades. Tidus tossed me a piece of the unagi and I grilled it a bit then swallowed it whole. Taking a breath to remove my murderous expression, I walk to Tidus. “Thanks for the fireball man, you got me out of a painful situation.” I patted him on the back and he just shrugged.
“It was the least I could do, brother. You did save me from being it’s lunch.”
It took a bit to reassure everyone (except Tidus) that I was just fine. Tidus said he’d have some of his people send me some of that meat. That did save me the time of gathering it myself. It’s not like it would sink anytime soon. It’s a fucking sky serpent (even though it looks more like an unagi).
“Storm Shadow, you might want to look at your flank.” Prism informed me. At what I already knew, I got a cutie mark and most likely a violent one. On my flak was what looked like my sonic corkscrew formed next to clouds. Great so I am the Dragoon whose drill will pierce the heavens! Eris gave me a mental slap for that one
“A cutie mark is no laughing matter, Storm. Look upon it with pride, for it is who you are!” Eris stated with clear outrage in her voice.
I know all that, I was just making a little joke that’s all. But still, I’ve got a mark that can only mean one thing violence.
“Yes, but violence can be used to protect those you hold dear, dear! So remember that okay?”
The sound of someone clearing their throat broke the ice. That pony was none other than the mayor, Heavy Rain, who was accompanied by the alabaster goddess! Oh sweet Celestia, literally! I went back to all fours as the princess and the mayor came forth to meet me. If I didn’t know better I say she was about to slap me in irons (she saw what I did to the Unagi, that wasn’t happening). Eris once again slapped some sense into me. Alright miss chaos and disarray, I’ll be serious about this.
The show only captured a fraction of her beauty! If I hadn’t made love to Eris, I would be in full “I’m not worthy” mode. However I remembered one thing, I am a citizen of Equestria, but not one of her subjects. I swore no fealty to this gorgeous woman before me. “Heavy, Princess” I say their names in small acknowledgement. All maws but Tidus Celestia and mine were agape.
Celestia chuckled at my nonchalance. “Greeting, Sir Storm Shadow. That was quite the bout you had there, It was so grotesque but was indeed an epic fight. I was tempted to have it censored, but that would do you no justice. Afterall, you gained you cutie mark from this battle.”
I raised an eyebrow at her. “SIr Storm Shadow? No disrespect but I don’t recall swearing fealty to you, or being knighted for that matter.” This time all eyes went wide except mine and Celestia’s
She smirked at my statement. “Heh, I suppose not. My little Dragoon. You fought like a champion and you are but a school colt!” I gagged at the mention of my technical age, even though the body fit it. My agitation must’ve been clear at my face. “I’m sorry, did I offend you. Young hero.” Celestia asked in honest concern, now I see why the ponies worship her.
“It’s nothing, mam. Just that though a school colt I may be, my mind is that of a teenage colt. I know Equestria knows almost nothing of dragons and even less about dragoons. So keep this in mind. We mentally age differently than our draconic kin.” She nodded her head in understanding “
“You there, Prism Lilly!” Prism eeped and shot up at attention at Celestia’s mention of her. “He is registered as staying in your abode, may I have a word with our hero?” Prism just nodded her head, suddenly short on words to give the princess. “Come with me, young one.” She took me into her wing as we walked away from the scene.
“If you want a conversation, we should leave here or you could put up a bubble of silence.” She did just that and our conversation began.
“You, Storm Shadow have skills. Skills I think would be better honed in the guard academy.” So this was what she wanted. Well I had planned to meet Celestia eventually, but it was a little soon. “Your mark represents a shining power gleaming in the darkness, ready to pierce it. Please consider my offer.” I let the cogs in my head turn. Thinking about what I should do.
“Fine, but I skipped the academy completely!” Celestia began to protest but stopped. “I’m trained better than those idiots at the guard and I won’t subject myself to being anywhere near snot nosed brats still on their momma’s teat. If I go into any guard, it’s gonna be the royal one. You want me on your team, so take it or leave it. And I want a ticket to the GGG, I’ve always wanted to go at least once” Celly blinked in wonder that I a twenty (10) year old dragoon was wheeling and dealing her.
“Very well on all accounts. However with your obvious skills and the display you made on national television, you’ll have a target on your back. So are you sure you don’t want in the academy, where I can offer you some protection from that?”
I didn’t even think about it. “No offense princess, but I’m fuckmothering dragoon and any pony stupid enough to try to step to me will get what’s coming to em. While I won’t hurt them, I will hurt their pride. I can guarantee you that I have superior training to your basic guard. So the academy would be a waste of both our time.”
Celestia agreed, having seen how I handled myself. It usually takes a battalion of pony guards to deal with sky serpent or unagi as I had deemed them. And even then there’s usually a casualty rate.Getting past their armor was a pain in the ass. I could see her feelings giving in to me demands. After all with some more intense training (I admit I need a bit more), I’d be an asset.
“I will see you at the gala in two months time then. Your training will begin the following week. I will be a pleasure having you serve. Until next we meet, have fun with the media!” And like that she turned off the regal and became Trollestia. This is going to be a bitch. Jasmin Lense, here i come!
Mayor Mare… Rain. Damn it Eris, stop fucking with my head when I’m trying to think! scheduled the party to the for two days later. It’s amazing that no matter how much damage is done in equestria, It always gets fixed or mostly fixed within a few days. I tossed that one into because magic pile and carried on. The party was more of a thank you Storm and Tidus for saving our weak little asses because Celestia knows we can’t do it ourselves party. I haven’t even met Pinkie and I’m starting to channel her. What the anal fuck without lube!
I was just happy that I was allowed to bring my entire entourage consisting of Gilda, d'Artagnan, Nocturne, Loving, Tender, and the other three with me.Celestia was there once again. Eating...pie. Oh that will not stand. I looked around the table and there was no cake in site. My guess is the cake shop got hit by the Unagi.
Eris, I need a cake. But not just any cake, Delicious Cake!”
“Well, excuse me for not being younger!” Eris cried in mock anger.
Ya done? I asked
“Yes love, I am. You want a cake, you’ll have to come here and bake it!” Eris pulled me into the grotto or more specifically the kitchen. “Get in the kitchen and bake me something!” She hollered, I’d be mad if she were serious. How in the hell did she know I knew how to...oh right she’s got a line to my mind! She didn’t even bother smacking me for that one, I beat her to it. I took my time since time is heavily distorted in the grotto.Time is relative here, so i assumed the few hours I needed to bake and prepare the cake was a few milliseconds there.
As I made the rum buttercream icing for two cakes (yes I actually made her a cake), I could feel my body walking ever closer to the table. With both cakes finished, I iced Eris’ fist. It read. “For you, my chaotic love and goddess!” I even put a heart at the end. I gave Eris a quick (passionate) kiss and boom, I was back in the waking world. I looked at my claws to notice the most delicious cherry-banana cake with buttercream icing lied in a D-box just waiting to be bashed on.
I walked up to my respective spot next to Celestia and Heavy, keeping the cake a secret as long as I could. Which turns out wasn’t that long “I sense a disturbance in the force!” Celestia muttered to herself. How does she even know that one!
“Hello again, Celestia. I bring you a gift!” I put the box down in front of her and cut the edges with my claws to reveal the cake. It looked delicious but it read “Here ya go, Celly! Enjoy!” I whipped the part that said “Fatass” off with a talon before anyone could see that. Celly gave me a sour look at taking first dibs on the cake.
Celestia had first taste of my confectionery orgasm in your mouth. Her eyes went wide with joy. I found myself very proud of my work. “This...this is delicious. I was told the local cake shop was unoperational!”
That is when a massive toothy grin went on my face. “I’m glad you like it, Celly. I baked it myself!” Everyones eyes went wide at my statement, even Celestia.
“You can bake such lovely cakes and your cutie mark designates you as a warrior?! That is amazing, Storm Shadow!” I corrected her to just call me Storm. She stepped back (emotionally) a bit, not used to being corrected or having anyone call her bullshit.
“He’s always been quite the little chef! He put some of the finest dragons of cuisine arts to shame in both his elegant and simple dishes! That’s just are little Oncoming Storm man of many skills!” Tidus backs me up backs me up. You didn’t have to give them that much info, bro. Celly lifted a brow at my nickname.
“The oncoming storm?” She asked in honest curiosity
“It was a mean I would rain upon our enemies and bring justice and victory to the pride.” I said flatly. I did not come up with that name. But it meant a lot to me. The party went well but in all honesty, it reminded me of a wedding reception due to the seating arrangements. My girls were in a front table, just not the front table. Music was playing and ponies were now dancing I just watched. That is until Prism looked at me with the “please dance with me” eyes. I grab my yellow hat and jacket and grab Prism . “Hit me!”
The two of us were swinging like crazy. It didn’t take long for everyone to get into the groove...everyone but Celestia. My eyes met hers and I could taste that bitter feeling of loneliness. As soon as I get to Canterlot I'd have to try to do something about that. But she did a damn good job of hiding it from her “little” ponies. I’m gonna crack that shell Eris, I swear!
“Good, she needs someone that isn’t afraid of her. I’m sure you’ll make a good friend to her given time.”
I’m glad you agree.
The girls were swinging me about making sure everyone got a dance with me since i knew how to shake a nonexistent tailfeather. After about twenty minutes of dancing, I had danced with every mare on the dance floor. Single or not. Hell I even danced with a few that wanted their stallions in the mix. It was quite fun, but there was one mare that hadn’t had my fun, Celestia.
Moving to the table and extending my claw to her. “Would you like a dance, little filly?” Her ears perked up that someone asked her to dance and called her a filly at that. She tried to give me the i don’t dance fact. Oh i don’t think so Corbin Bleu. I grabbed her by the forelegs and took flight. She got my point and got up with me.
“Privately, please. My little ponies would be slightly intimidated having me on the dance floor.” I motioned her to leave the area with me. When we got out to the balcony, there were nothing but servants in the area. “Excuse me, but my friend and I would like very much not to be disturbed. Can you see to it that nopony has access to this area?” Wow she wasn’t kidding, I could feel the love and respect and also a touch of fear of fucking up in the servants. When they left Celly cast a shrouding spell, as per my request.
It was time for me to make a reveal to the most powerful being in the area! “Celestia I have a small secret to tell you.” I paused. This was the first time I felt fear in a while. I just hope she doesn’t send me to the sun to constantly regenerate for all eternity! Thinking up a new form as quickly as I could, I changed in front of Celestia. I was now a slime green pegasus with green eyes and a black mane...and the same cutie mark! I focused hard and contorted my mark to something else. It felt...wrong!
“You’re a changeling!” Celestia said in uphorrent outrage.
“Only half, the other half is a dragon. So I’m a changeling Dragoon. I swear to you Celestia that what you saw earlier was..”
“The real you. I am well aware of this. I had some research done on changeling half breeds a few hundred years ago. Why’re you showing this to me, Storm?” I reveal to her my plan of having her dance among her ponies at least until the stroke of midnight. “So I am to be Sooty Wings, am I? “
“Hey, I’m just trying to make this enchanting!” Celly giggled at my joke. Wow she had a cute laugh! Maybe I am doing this right. “Can you don a disguise?” She had a look of mock outrage at my question on her face. In seconds she was a teenage mare. I couldn’t help but snicker at the form she took! “Great now OUR FUN SHALL BE DOUBLED!” I declared in the royal Canterlot voice of old. “So why Luna?” Minus the horn and flowing mane. She blinked at the fact that I even knew who she was. She was going to ask and then face hoofed. I’m a fucking dragon of course I knew about Luna. We are as timeless as they afterall.
I motion for the a fly around and inside the hall. The party was open entry so we just circled around the front. “This is fun! you have no idea how long it’s been since I felt so free!” I remind her that no one will recognize her in this form. The moral to the story was, don’t act like royalty.
“Greetings! my wife and I would like to enter!” I spoke with a heavy japanese Equestrian accent and Celly followed suit by bowing. I don’t know how ponies pull off a perfect japanese bow, but she did. We were allow entry since the party was open to the public anyway.
Celestia was a little nervous, she hadn’t been dancing in a while. “You’ll do fine. Just follow my lead, my darling wife!” Celly blushed at me calling her that, oh this will be such fun! We ended up doing some mingling here and there. After ingesting some liquid courage, Celly was ready to dance.
The two of us had a regular sock hop! We were up on the floor doing the foxtrot, the charleston, and the twist. The music changed to fit the mood of our dancing and soon everybody was dancing old school. There was even one dance that I’m a little ashamed to admit but Celly requested it (the dork), we even did the swim! Hell we were even doing the pogo. It was only a matter of time until someone came our way...fuck, it’s Prism!
“That was some nice dancing there! I mean the moves were a little old, but it was still nice.” Hey don’t hate on the old moves “My names Prism Lily and this is my daughter Rainbow Dash, what’s your names?”
It was time for some names on the fly. “I am Gale Force Wind, but please just call me Gale!” I kissed both Prism and Dash’s whooves. Celly really sold the jealousy of a wife. “And this display of perfection is my wife, Celestial Body.” I just couldn’t resist she had constellations all over her, so why not. Celly was slightly amused that I kept most of her name in her disguise
“Wow, I never met anypony with a name that close to the princess’!” Dash cried and Prism just shook her head. I take a look at the clock and it was getting close to midnight. We had been dancing for almost an hour!
“While we’d love to talk more Prism dono. But my wife and I need to be going soon. Enjoy the rest of you night Dash chan, Prism dono!” I say with both Celly and myself bowing and exiting the party. We made sure that no eyes were on us by flying deep in cloud cover and circling a few times. We landed on the balcony at the stroke of midnight and Celestia’s spell vanished I had long since changed back to normal, so no worries there.
“Arigato gozaimasu, Storm kun! That was splendid!”
I grab her by the neck and give her a kiss. By the way it felt, it was her first in quite some time. “Anata wa hijō ni kangei shite iru.” I say to her while circling a talon on the very lips mine had just touched. “I know you don’t make it a habit of letting someone you just met kiss you, so consider that my thank you gift. I can’t wait to dance with you again at the gala. The real you I mean!” Celly seemed to agree. That would certainly liven up the gala!
I open the door but no one noticed it at all. Could this be...Nah. “It’s a perception filter. We vanished into the corner of the party goers minds for the last two hours. I don’t use it often, but it gives me a brief reprieve. I could teach it to you if you like.”
“Nifty and that wouldn’t do any good right now. I don’t have a horn, yet.” She flinched at the yet part. “I have a feeling it will grow in when I get older, I can feel pressure on my forehead. But nothing gets it to come out. Chances are that I might need to be near more aggression. You know full well dragons need it to grow. I may be half changeling but it’s more like twentyfive percent changeling and the rest dragon.” Celestia gave me her two cents about patience and not trying to grow up too soon. My rebuttal was that I was a twenty year old dragoon. I should be in a teen body soon and yet I can’t feel what should be on my head. That talk ended in her “there, thering” in me. After deciding that we waited long enough, we walk back into the party and back into the minds of the party goers. Man that was fun.
Celly wished me farewell at the end of the party with a hug and we both departed. For the next twenty minutes the girls raved about “the foreigners” busting a move on the stage. I just smiled knowing only one person in the mix new damn well it was me.
You tell this to no one and that’s an order!
I won’t tell anyone about your dance session with who I assume to be Celestia.
Good! The chatter died down as we made it home, me and the mane three went into the manor, while the others went to their respective buildings in the surrounding area.
Today was the day. The GGG was tonight and I would definitely have fun tonight. Prism was saying the same thing. One of her regulars had booked her for a date, so if I wanted her company today I’d be shit outta luck! Her date was some member of the upper crust in Cloudsdale. One good thing about Cloudsdale, it’s upper class aren’t total douchebags! Their mostly cool to be around and give to the community. But every batch has its bad apples. Prism’s date however, is not one of those bad apples.
Maximum Velocity is a pretty good looking stallion for his age. The man’s pushing fifty, but he doesn’t look a day over thirty. And neither does his cock or stamina for that matter. He’s given Prism a run for his money. He doesn’t give her as long or hard a ride as I do, but got damn can he fuck! No joke, watching him do his do is like art. I watch in whenever I can when he cums for Prism. There’s no way to say this without there being any homo in it. But he actually makes me wish I had a set of lady loins for him to violate hard! I would say no homo, but all homo was intended.
*Hardcore masturbation is coming up Ctrl+f exited shower to skip*
I spot a reflection in the glass of the shower and notice I’m a mare. Well I am in the shower and I happen to currently be a mare, so fuck it! And fuck it I did. After locking the door and turning the shower on full blast. I (gently) clawed at my honeypot. A extremely loud moan escaped from my mouth as I felt a spike of pleasure spike through my body. Holy shit, and that wasn’t even an orgasm! This is going to be so much fun!
As my claw was busy, I worked my breast (which were about 36 D amazing [and improbable] for my technical age I don’t think they’ll be growing much) with the other claw and my tongue. Since I was completely arouse, the membrane that of flesh that protects them from the elements was long receded. Got damn I was working it! Each movement of my claw made me lose my mind, but it wasn’t enough! More, I want so much more!
Wait my shower head is detachable! Didn’t take me long to rip that shit off its mount and place it to my love hole. Damn did having that water gushing in me feel good. I’m not ashamed to admit that I prodded my ass a bit with my tail. Wait a minute, MY TAIL. In seconds my tail was ready to pound away at my precious place. I had to be careful since this female body was definitely a virgin. I prodded gently, hoping to Eris and any other deity that was listening in/watching my session (perverts) that my hymen did not regenerate. I don’t want to deal with that shit every time i switch genders. But a little pain at first would be worth the immense pleasure I can’t get as a male.
“It might grow back a few times, but it shouldn’t persist. Now get back to working yourself, lover! I’m enjoying the show!” Pervert. “Damn straight I am!”
As soon as she left or at the very least shut up in my head, I got back to work with my tail. When I was sure I was aroused enough I began to further explore my new hole. Ouch, it took a moment to get over the pain. I’ve had worse I mean the Ungai caused me more pain than this, but I didn’t want to break my poor little pussy and I had never fucked a virgin so I didn’t know the limits for first timers. As soon as the pain resided, I slowly pumped my tail in further batting the ridges around every now and then. I gave some attention to my clit to hasten my feeling good. Oh my, was that ever a good call. My pleasure intensified and my head tilted back due to the sudden increase in pleasure.
My tail was better than any vibrator! Now I know why Tender loves this thing so much, I’m right there with you girlfriend! It wasn’t long before I began to back it up like a wanton whore. My tail was amazing but I wanted to be mounted from my very core! Not long after I started thinking about the most glorious stud I could think of at the moment, Maximum Velocity the stallion that started this in the first place. My train of thought was going straight to old man Maxi.
I pounded away like I didn’t have a care in the world, until I felt something building up. Oh ancestors, this is it! I needed a bit of assistance and shove the shower head, which was spherical up my ass and let the water flow for a bit before pushing that shit up there. My eyes had long since rolled to the back of my head and at that moment I was glad that the Prism made me to do a little anal play with her before I went into her for the first time. There’s no way to explain it other than mind blowing and then I fainted. When I came to the shower head was still in my ass and my tail had long since been popped out of my pussy. But it wasn’t even 0500 yet so the girls are all out cold, which is a good thing since I want more.
I put my tail back to my pussy and popped the shower head out of my ass, I had better things to use in my room. After finding a good anal toy, I run back to my shower and got back to business. I ended up going at myself until my hymen no longer regenerated. I fucked myself six times. I barely have the patience to jerk off three times before I’m bored of playing with myself! When my fun was had, I exited the shower.
*Knock knock” “Storm, are you okay. I heard a lot of groaning!” Great Prism you pick this moment to turn on you mommy”instincts!
“I’m fine, you silly filly!” I said in a voice that definitely wasn’t my male one. Fuck, I forgot to change back. Well that would’ve been hard since my tail was still in there.
“Storm, I smell a mare! You’re not serving anypony this early, what’s going on.” She said worriedly. “Baby, please let me in. Whatever is going on, I’ll understand!” Prism was crying I could just change back, but Prism’s really worried about me. Fuck it! It was time to have no secrets in this family (except the one about me not being from equus).
Unlocking the door, I let Prism in to see me in all my feminine glory. I could feel her confusion and then it fizzled into pure curiosity. “So Storm, what’s going on?” She asks while eyeing me up. I feel her assessing my “assets” but it wasn’t the sexual type, not completely. There was some business in her stare. “forty bits.” Prism muttered to herself.
“What was that, Prism?” I asked even though I know damn well what she said.
“I assessed you at forty bits, okay?!” I giggled at her she had given me a rate higher than hers, I was flattered. She gave me a rate that was ten bits over hers. “So what’s going on here?”
I tell her to sit down and when she does I gave her the skinny. “So you’re a changeling huh? I thought they were an old mare's tale!”
“I am not a changeling. I am a half breed, so It’s changeling dragoon. Or just a dragoon as I prefer. And before you ask, this is my real form, but I have a rather scary changeling form.” she dismissed me as overselling my form do to lack of not licking it. Well she asked for it “ Step in the shower, please” She didn’t question my request. I shifted into my changeling form to reveal my other half to her, while still being female. Hoping that it would lessen the blow
It didn’t. Prism pissed herself in horror. “Storm, you’re terrifying!” Ouch, my feelings! not really! I smirk and laugh it off. My other form possessed black and green scales with orange changeling wings. Not a hole was my my body and my blades looked sharper. My flowing mane eyes and cutie mark were the only things unchanged by my reveal of my hyde side. Even my fangs were sharper, if that were possible. I swear I looked more horrifying than a nightmare dragon. I was saddened that I still didn’t have a fucking horn! This served as proof that half breeds ( or at the very least Puzzle and I) were more like the other parent
Hell, if my dragoon body screamed predator, than hyde screamed super predator! Prism was frozen in my eyes and I could see and taste the fear. I was waiting for her to ask if they were just a meal to me. “Why didn’t you tell us sooner! You’ve been with us for a while and you, dear are family!”
“You mean you’re not gonna yell and holler about everyone being just a meal to me?” Prism slapped me, hard.
“Don’t even think about the that, Storm! Do you have any idea how important you are to me...and this family!” She hastily added after noticing she made a love based comment. I hug Prism. She had just saved me from my greatest fear, being rejected by my loved ones here in Equestria. “So, wanna have some fun with this body of yours?” Prism took a whiff. “I mean some more fun!” She pushed me down to the bed and grabbed her favorite toy from her room. Wow, I’m going to be fucked by my own dick and I’m going to love every second!
*Here comes more sex Ctrl+f breakfast to skip*
“Oh storm, Are you ready to play?” Prism sang with joy. I answered by opening my legs. She went to put the other part of two mini mes merged via a v connector straight into my wanting hole, but I stopped her and pointed to the hole and made a licking motion. I wanted oral and I would have it. Prism just made a sexy sigh and smirk and gave into my desires. A pony’s tongue is different from a dragon’s, it’s thicker and wider and couldn’t go as deep as a dragon’s could. But I think it the volume is a fair trade for length. Having her eat me out sent pleasure straight through my spine as I arched in glee. Every lick Prism gave me was vastly appreciated and rewarded with moans groans and gasps.
After a couple of minutes, she was back to hoofing mini me. “Now this is going to feel like the close to the real thing. The only thing the enchantment couldn’t capture was the feeling of flesh.” I responded Prism with a bend upwards. I wanted that dick in me. I wanted my dick in my pussy and I wanted it now! She thankfully took the hint and began the insertion.
Wow, she wasn’t kidding. This thing was as warm and big as my dick. Having a mold of my own dick shoved in pussy didn’t feel weird at all, in fact it made me want to get fucked harder. “Harder, faster, stronger...please!” I whimpered to her. Prism seemed to like my begging and gave me the ride I asked for, a full force rut. I felt myself tighten and loosen at the pulling and pushing of mini me. This was better than my tail. Maybe it was because I was getting fucked silly!
Prism grabbed one of my legs and lifted it up in the air, licking it while I squeezed the toy. Not wanting it out of me for a second. I started toying with a nipple and my clit while she proceeded to fuck my pussy up. Putting my leg back down and wrapping both of them around her flanks, I pull her closer to me. I want it deeper!
Grabbing hold of Prism’s neck I pull her in for a long kiss. we pull away in a bit and I cried out. Well there goes another orasm. I wonder how many I can have before my mind 404’s? Huh strange, this is where Eris usually makes a witty quip
“Okay two things, bitch! I’m having some fun time to your fun time I have no Idea How about you just shut up and get yourself fucked”
That’s three things, darling!
“Bitch, I am the goddess of chaos and disarray, fuck logic!”
Fair enough. Back to the sexy-time
While having prism fuck me to yet another orgasm was fun, I was feeling like I wanted to be on top. Not even giving her any warning, I switch positions with her and start bouncing on that dick. “I see why you’ve been so hungry for a dragoness, this is a beautiful view!” prism said whilst thrusting her hips and grabbing my tits with her hooves, which felt like a fingerless palm was massaging them. Grabbing her thighs as a hand hold, I increase the rate of my bumping and grinding.
I used my tail to play with Prism’s wings a bit, she loved itt and thrusted harder. I went into reverse cowgirl, giving prism a full view of my holes. “Prism, put something in my ass. I want to get DPed!” Prism just smiled at my statement and grabbed my tail and shoved it straight up my gaping hole. She controlled my tail while I kept up my wanton riding.
Having the mini me in my pussy and my tail in my ass felt different. But a good kind of different. We rode out our pleasure for a bit but she suddenly stopped.”Why’d you stop”!”
She knelt on the bed and pointed at mini me. “Suck it, you whorse!” Ii just didn’t even think about it and sucked that dick like it was my favourite kind of popsicle. I up and down on that shit like it was the sweetest thing ever. Sucking it licking it and giving it a clawjob. Prism tilted her head back and moaned like but I needed to be sure the connector was working. ”Prism are you feeling this?”
“Yes, now get back to work, slacker!” I bit it a just for that. “That hurt, storm!”
“Than you shouldn’t treat me like I’m a trollop, I’m the one in control here! Blowjob 091; yes I put you in a remedial class, never belittle the woman sucking your dick. You treat her like the goddess she is for sucking you in the first place!” Prism felt like an epic bitch for going too far in the abuse play and hung her head in shame as I continued to suck her off to oblivion. Like the giddy little whorse I am. My attitude was almost completely flipped when I changed sexes. Inverse mark, inverse persona. Another difference I noticed was I was talking like I belonged in Kansai! I dropped that thought and got back to work. Like Prism had so rudely suggested.
Nothing gonna come out. The harder and faster I suck, the other mini me on my end will send a signal to the connector and the connector channels the energy through her end, straight into her head. Her cry of pain was the downside of the linking magic allowing the mini mes to feel warm and hard as the real thing and the connector to send a tenth of the pain of the bite and two thirds of the pleasure. I couldn’t find a way to compensate for that loss in my designs. Shit, I was just surprised no unicorn thought about this considering how many lesbians are out there. I split the earnings with the unicorn sixty- forty since I didn’t have the magic to make it possible.
I wouldn’t have bitten as hard if she felt the full pain. I’m a slut, not a bitch! “Hey, I’m suckin ya dick here! Anata no kakkōī o shūryō shi, watashi no kuchi no shita ni kono koto o tsukidasu! Quit yer bitchin and shove this thing down my mouth!” Now was a perfect time to test for a gag reflex. I had always been told that dragons don’t have them, but I never put that to the test. I don’t know why I had repeated myself with Prism, she had asked me to teach her Japanese after I and Celly (still unbeknownst to her) made friends with her and left back for Japan.
Much to my glee, Prism did as I had asked and shoved that shit down my throat. Turns out that the adults weren’t pulling my leg, dragons really do lack a gag reflex. Which in this case was good for me! She grabbed my head for a handhold and started fucking my throat like it was a pussy. It went deeper and deeper until it was base to mouth. Heh, base to mouth. My mouth was working on Prism’s dick or more accurately, she was working my throat with her dick.
My pussy felt lonely, so I let my tail do it’s work on my downstairs. I matched Her thrusting as best I could and we both went at it like we were in heat! My senses were tingling, we had a visitor! Get in her right now Puzzle Piece! She didn’t hear us fucking, the soundproofing spell that I forgot to switch on when I was playing with myself was turned on by Prism before we started fucking.
Yes, boss! So how do you like being a female.
It’s fucking incredible Puzzle! Why didn’t you tell me it would feel this good:?
You know by know that It can’t be explained with just words, boss!
Touche!
Puzzle takes a male form to fuck the shit out of me with PrismI The two of them double teaming me was mind breaking, if my bed weren’t made of diamond dust, I woulda destroyed it. While Prism was only feeling a percentage, Puzzle felt all of me. We even melded via the hive mind. Melding was an intimate act and it made sex with two changelings world shattering. I felt him feeling me and he felt me feeling him. Prism got a little jealous of this when we told her about it and pouted while she plunged away.
We couldn’t have that! Flipping both of us and the switch on the connector so it would register as my didck, I took control and I started ta fuck her. Puzzle plunged his dick inta her and started pumping. We were still melded. Our joint orgasms were astronomical. Believe it or not, the three of us came together. We were knocked out of our stupor by the growling of stomachs, It was time for breakfast!
After fucking for hours in both rooms, the three of us take a shower and step into the kitchen. The Dash was up and oh was she in for a surprise. I was still in my female form. The normal one not the scary one. Prism, Puzzle, and I entered the room kissing, they were mauling my boobs with their wings, which tickled a lot. We separated when we reached the kitchen table and I went to make food, eggs and hashbrowns. Dash had some questions, but I made her wait for the other five girls that I sent Puzzle to retrieve.
When the girls were assemble I changed back into my male form in front of them and Puzzle mimicked Gilda to show she was one as well. After the explanation, I waited for responses. “I fucking knew it, pay up Nocturne!” d'Artagnan cried in victory. I’ll have to ask her what gave me away to her later!
“Yeah that explains a lot, actually.” The twins say as if it didn’t really matter
“Took you long enough to tell us, Storm!” Was all Gilda had to say in this matter. Well son of a bitch, I’ve been keeping this secret all this time and I could’ve just told them two months ago and it wouldn’t have fucking mattered! My paranoia is a double-edged sword! Puzzle was right there with me in the what the fuck department though. Neither of us were expecting to be welcomed with open arms, but we were.
I shifted back into my female form to notice my cutie mark was naturally inverted and not something I thought up. I guess that would help if I ever wanted a good old fashioned sausage injection. I drooled at the thought of it. Damn, I’m more of a slut as a female! It’s a close call though. I need a name! “What do I call myself when I’m like this?” I ask out loud.
The girls were all puzzled on that one. No one had any Idea what to go with. “NIght Fury!” It smoothly flowed out of dashes lips like it was natural. All the girls nodded their heads in approval. Not only was the name badass, it actually fit my look according to them.
I took a good look at myself. Other than being an obvious mare, I looked completely different! The base for my scales was still black but orange and green switched places. So my hair was black and orange and my wings were slime green! I was just glad my eyes were still the same. When I was on my hind legs you could notice muscles I had toned. My face and waist were absolutely lovely. I didn’t even bother measuring myself, I don’t wear clothes. Not to ring my own bell, but If I was a guy, I’d do me! Heh, well I guess I already did though! If my male form was a sword, then my female one was a hidden blade.
“Night Fury, mama like!” I’m not even fighting the small changes in my personality. It just feels right when I’m in this form. Dash was happy that I had taken a liking ta my new name. I could feel her pressing against me a little.
“So, Night. When do you want to go shopping!” Prism cried in excitement. That was a good question. I was just happy that my love for shopping wasn’t changed with the form change!
“How is that even a question Prism? I wanna get shoppin as soon as possible. I don’t have anything that accents my femininity! But today is not the day to do it, the gala and whatnot.” I say, switching back to my male form. Girls, you have your dresses packed in your saddlebags, right?” All the girls going to the gala (all adults save d'Artagnan) said yes in a shrill voice. It was time for me to go to the garage and strap myself into the custom air chariot I had made for such an occasion. I was just happy I tested the shock absorbing system in the passenger area and it worked. So I’d be traveling at subsonic to sonic speeds.
I had my jacket and hat long since ready I’d be wearing a jacket-hoodie combination of MJ’s (yes another Ode to the king of pop) Smooth Criminal. It was dressy enough and I was Celestia’s escort for the evening, so it’s not like anyone but her could stop me from entering. Yeah, I’d like to see them try! The only difference is these guys could put up a fight, they were royal guard after all. The girls were only a small bit irked that I had to be in Canterlot this early. But they dropped it since we’ll be there in roughly ten minutes. Cloudsdale was about a four hour flight from canterlot, but I’d have the girls there in about ten minutes thanks to my speed.
The only part that kept me waiting was the girls. About ten minutes after I was strapped in and ready, the girls came in and loaded their bags in the back and took their seats. “Keh. Thank you for riding Air Storm. Please remain seated at all times and buckle up. Don’t forget to keep you appendages in the car at all times. Look in front of you and you’ll see popcorn for and a bottle of juice for you enjoyment. As per your request, we will be docking at the B junction so you ladies will have your choice of restaurants ranging from Donut Joe’s to IHOW and Pancake House.”
The girls would be flying home without me. I started training tomorrow and I’d be moving into the castle for that purpose. Celestia and I had grown close in the last two months. We were sending each other letters via dragon fire. Her latest one displayed her giddiness that her friend would be joining her to make her time at the gala less boring. I’d be spending the entire day leading up to the event with her, so this was going to be fun. Even if I’d only see ponies try to kiss Celly’s glorious golden cutie marked ass. Down boy, midflight is not the time to have a hardon!
As soon as I dropped the girls off to get their breakfast and meet their respective dates, I was gone baby gone. Well as fast as I can go in a docking area (about 30 Mph). I couldn’t get out of that dock fast enough as a made a direct jet to the castle booming well above city level so it was obvious that I was coming. The area near the castle is a no fly zone to civilians. Slowing down as my slime trail became clearly obvious. Celly said she informed the aerial patrol about me in advance. I really hope that wasn’t her trolling me, because that wouldn’t be pretty for me.
True to her word, or rather words. The patrol met me halfway to the castle. They lead me into the castle and to the ballroom, where Celly was waiting for me. As I had asked them, we entered without making a sound and Celly was busy speaking with the some important looking...Holy shit, it’s a doe! And she’s fucking hot! Their backs were turned to us I signaled the patrolmen to be quiet and they seemed to like where I was going with this.
“Security for the gala I prepared, your highness. Our sweeps turned nothing suspicious!” The doe declared to Celly in a serious manner.
“Excellent, Sergeant Doe! Hopefully the gala will go without a hitch!” Oh you lying little bitch you want there to be a hitch!
Moving forward with on the ceiling my ninja skills and not my wings (i didn’t want to fuck up a perfect opportunity), I walk to about the middle of them. Now one thing is true everywhere I go. The big birds in the sky never look up. I took that moment to hop down and land between the two of them. “You were saying something about there being no suspicion, Miss Jane Doe?” Celestia snickered and Sgt. Doe
“How in tartarus did you know my name, boy!” Sweet, I was right. I couldn’t stop laughing at GI Jane Doe. Mustn’t say it...mustn't say it! “Wait a tick, you’re that bloke! The hero of Cloudsdale!” Heavy had given me the title and it stuck since I kept saving the city from various things. It was mostly crime that I ended up busting though. But what can I say...I’m the best at what I do!
Celly cleared her throat and got Jane to stand at attention. I on the other hand, was slouching a bit. I’m not in the guard yet! “Sergeant Doe, I would like you to meet your new Corporal! Storm Shadow is a friend of mine and has been since his debut to the public. He has a background in the Draconic army in Japan and Equestria and was ranked Major. I’m sure you can imagine my surprise when he requested a fresh start in one of his letters.” Jane was just looking at me mouthing “major, majorly unbelieveable” Celly heard that and put a little ice in her statement. Celly went on about hoping the two of us could get along and the importance of my smooth integration. With what could’ve been a discussion with a kind ruler turned into a “fuck this up and you’re a private” conversation. Celestia really didn’t like her SGT. badmouthing her friend. Doe gulped from the tension.
I took the time to eye her up and I could tell that she didn’t have a stick up her ass. That however didn’t me that she wouldn’t throw the book at me if I fucked up. Another thing I noticed was she wasn’t wearing armor. She’s rocking tactical combat armor and had some battle scars. Looking at her gave me even more clarity. Hold the phone, she’s way too seasoned to be a SGT!
“I’m not in the normal royal guard, am I?” Both of them had evil smirks on their faces. My theory on SGT Doe was correct. She was SGT but she was more seasoned than your typical one. When I agreed to join a few months ago, Celly wasted no time in listing me as an asset and making sure I ended up in the Sol Guard, Her special ops defence force for when the guard is overwhelmed. The guard was the shield while the sol guard was the sword. While this was just an extension of the guard, I wouldn’t be wasting my time guarding a gate! I was in strikeforce, fuck yes! I just found it funny that I haven’t even started yet and I’m already a fucking Corporal
“If you think you’ll get any respect in my unit for being a vigilante, think again. You’re a CPL, so you won’t have to worry about your subordinates but expect some heat from our superiors. Especially when you move into the barracks.”
“He won’t be staying at the barracks, he’s staying in the solar wing as my ward.” Celly just dropped a bomb. She turned to face me and grinned. You fucking troll! Doe gave me a “good luck kid” look as she was dismissed by Celly, the queen of the trolls.
“Your ward, really! You do know that now I’m gonna have to deal with ass kissers and soldiers with chips on their shoulders. Great what am I gonna do next time I see Colonel Night Light. Your student, his daughter doesn’t even have quarters in solar suite!” Well in her defense, the girl has her own fucking warded tower so she doesn’t blow shit up. She just giggled at my predicament. I try to keep my anger but that giggle is fucking cheating! She’s too cute to be mad at right now. How do stallions ever win an argument?
She brought me in for a hug, using her wings as well. “I’m sorry for not telling you sooner Storm. But even if I hadn’t done that, they would have found out about your lineage in the Draconic Empire.” She said while nuzzling me a bit. “I’m just happy we can see each other more than twice a week!” Celly cried in excitement. Yeah, we can rendezvous more often now that I work in the guard and live like twenty feet away in the suite she had been preparing for me for the last month. Solar wing, occupants two.
“Okay point taken. Watashi wa akirameru, I give up! Since I’m sure you have things to do before the gala, I’m going to pay Twilight a visit. I want to make sure she’s been following my advice in taking care of the hatchling. I still haven’t seen the cute yet, so meeting it should be fun.” I jumped out of the window and flew straight into Twilight’s tower. I was immediately assaulted with by a gust of fire. Looks like someone’s didn’t list to my advice.
Fire was everywhere, of course it was being killed by wards I found it fascinating to just watch the little thing blow fire like crazy. It was fun to watch until I got belted in the face by a fireball. It didn’t hurt me, but that was still annoying. Twilight looked like a mother after her baby’s been crying for hours. Here it comes. “Help me!”
I walk to little walk to the hatchling that I would know as spike. I don’t know why Celestia wouldn’t let me get the things name in a letter. It would be nice so I could just say it instead of coming up with some ridiculous excuse like “I speak baby” (no offense to the Doctor) I mean I knew full well that the hatchling was a boy and his name was Spike.
I make a small fire in my mouth, careful not to blow it. The hatchling crawled right to me. Daw, he’s so cute! As soon as Spike got to me I picked him...son of a bitch! One thing was clear as soon as I picked the hatchling up. This wasn’t Spike it was Barb!
“I told you your presence would cause some changes, didn’t I” Eris said, clearly happy that my presence had made another clear change in Equestria.
Yes I guess you did, didn’t you. Eris fades in a her trademark laugh. “Now, have you been giving your sister trouble Barb!” She looked at me innocently. Twilight asked me what was wrong with her. “I’ll tell you what’s wrong, you fed her a fucking gem!” I made a point in growling and roaring at her. She knew damn well that Barab wasn’t due for solid food for another month. What is with this girl and experimenting. “I’ll be caring for Bbarb until she can talk. It’s clear that I could never have trusted you to care for a hatchling.”
Twilight cringed at my statement, damn do I ever feel like a dick. “But Storm, I didn’t feed her a gem! Cadence did!” Oh, I’ll be having a talk with that pretty pink pony princess! Patting Twilight on the head, I apologized to her. I really shouldn’t have yelled at her.
Barb couldn’t digest solid food yet, so it went right back up. Not as vomit, but as a flurry of flames. I notice a small flame hadn’t been put out by the wards. I took to the air with Barb in hand and flung my wings, allowing the bioluminescent powder stored within my wings to take out the flame. Twilight makes a comment about wanting to study me and I coldly tell her it could wait. She begged for another chance at taking care of Barb as I prepped to leave. Call me a softy, I gave her that chance. I was never going to leave with Barb anyway!
“Take this, I wrote it just for you, so it doesn’t exist anywhere else. I trust you to keep it that way. Don’t deviate from it and if there’s anything you need help with have Celly summon me.”I handed her the book I wrote for her. She smiled at having an exclusive book. That smile turned into a slight frown when she saw the title “Hatchling Care 4 Foals”. “Make Cadence read it while you’re at it. Since she insist on “helping” you care for Barb” Twily put on a maniacal grin. She may love Cadence like the sister she’s going to be in a few years, but she made me yell at her! I could feel it in her emotions.
“Good news is you'll both have easier access to me because.” I pause for a dramatic effect. “You are now looking at CPL Storm Shadow of the sol guard! And the best part is that I’m staying in the solar wing”
Twilight’s eye’s light up at my news. She was jumping up and down. Wait for it, wait for it! “The solar wing?! That means you’re going to practically be living with the princess! She told me she was working on a surprise that I’d like but I didn’t think it would be this!” Twilight’s character didn’t change much. The only reason I’m this close with her is...SCIENCE! I had an engineering background as well so I fixed shit up as it broke. So when I found her working on a device and it failed, I just couldn’t help but fix it for her. One thing led to another and I was exchanging letters with her almost as much as I was wit Celly. I had to visit her and have a good talk every time I paid Celly a visit.
I waited for the jumping and squealing to stop, but damn fillies are just to cute! My eyes trailed to places it probably shouldn’t but I couldn’t help it. It was just giggling in my face. I almost felt shame at getting a rise out of seeing Twilight shake it. Then I reminded myself of one thing. She’s a filly and I am (technically) a colt. Thankfully I’ve got more control than a colt, otherwise I’d have to have a talk with Twily. I wonder where Cadence is.
“Twilight, I’ve brought some more fire wards! Did you ever find out what’s causing Barb to do this?” Cadence paused as soon as she saw me, most likely a vision of the lashing to come.
Putting Barb in her bed and activating a localized sound barrier, I walked up to the pink fool while giving her my best “you’re in trouble” look. “YOU FED HER GEMS?! What were you thinking, she could’ve burned through those wards faster than you can say fire extinguisher. If I hadn’t been here, twilight would have been in serious trouble!” I told them both about the stray ember. Then I inform them that the fire of a hatchling is highly volatile and if fueled by gems could burn a hole through say, the fucking tower we’re in! Not to forget that poor Barb could have gotten seriously ill.
The girls (Cadence more so) hung their heads in shame. It was about then that Twilight remembered my gift, the grin was back. Walking to the bookshelf, she handed her foalsitter and friend the book I wrote for her. “Read up! Unless you want Storm to give you a remedial course, that is!” Eris added a little something to the book that I approved of, a crack at Cadence. When Cadence opened the book, a projection of me appeared.. “Hatchling Care 4 Foals. Cadence, you best read the whole book, lest you do something stupid like feed the poor thing gems a full month too early!” She gave me a” how did you know” look and I just brushed it off. I put a projection of me stating care facts to calm Barb down. Eris was also ever so kind as to change any mention of Spike to Barb. I’ve learned my lesson in making assumptions.
Looking out the window, I could see 2LT Shining armor running through the course again in an attempt to break his record, again! I decide to let the girls “Read” the book I had stored in a crystal with a holo reader. I think I did a good job with that one. The record reader wasn’t portable a few months ago, but with time I made the one Twilight now has and she has a few crystals that she can view in the comfort of her room. I’ll work on mass production as soon as it gets more popular. I’m just glad I made the right choice in the look i went with, a book!
Announcing my exit, I leave the way I came. Only this time I banked left to the field to give Shining a greeting. I’ve been coming to the castle for the weekends for two months and I’ve only hung out with Shining a few times. Haven’t seen him in with the colt. Hell I’ve even met Nightlight and Twilight velvet (MILF) but today, I’d talk with the colt. You don’t become the captain of the guard by being antisocial.
“Yo, Shiny. Still trying to beat your old record huh?” Shining Armor turned to face me. He looked perturbed at my using his pet name, but being friends of both Twilight and Cadence gives me the right!
The prick just turns his back and gets back to hitting the pavement. “Shining Armor, that’s no way to treat a friend!” That deliciously smooth voice could only belong to one mare, Twilight Velvet. “I know you’re trying to impress your father by breaking your old record, but you should take some time to acknowledge your friend. So apologize!” Velvet sternly said, stomping her forehooves on the ground. Oh that got him whimpering.
“No apology necessary, ma’am. Your boy’s got his eyes on the prize and I don’t see a point in reprimanding him for it.” I turn to Shining. “But if you ever want to have friends than just me and not just subordinates that put you on a pedestal, I suggest you pull that stick out of your ass, sir.” I say while saluting him. He may not be able to pull rank on me since we’re two different branches of guard but he’s still a 2LT and that earned him some respect.
“Noted, uh.” What, did this fool hit his head or something? “Corporal Storm Shadow. Welcome to the guard buddy!” He gave me a bro hug. I can’t believe I fell for his little I don’t care act. “My dad told me.” The question must have been on my face or something. From what I can tell, there’s no way he’s breaking that record if he keeps pushing it like this. He needs to relax!
“That’s only half the news, bro! Celestia just named me as her ward and I’m staying in a the new suite in the solar wing starting tomorrow.” Both their jaws dropped.
“Prepare for hazing, bro.” Shining informed me. Considering my rank all that’s gonna happen is an officer’s may take his frustration out on me. I’m one of the most powerful beings in Equestria, I think I can handle a little verbal abuse.
“Come now, it can’t be that bad!” Velvet shook her head in disbelief. Shining and I just face hoofed/clawed. For a guard mom and wife, this mare is so naive. I time to smack some sense into her.
“Velvet, I’m going to be announced as the ward to the princess at the Gala. Let’s not forget that I’ll be sworn in as a CPL of the sol guard then as well. You know how nobles behave in canterlot?” Velvet shook her head. “Well imagine a nittier gritter version of it, only these guys only want to break you to prove that you are absolutely worthless and your nobility means even less than you do!” She shied away, took me a second to realize what I was doing. Shining was even cowering (it was in his eyes not his body) “I’m sorry, I let my emotions get the better of me there.” I say while hugging Velvet.
“You feel better though, right hon?” Now that I think about it yes, I do. She let me vent at what was going to happen. “So they’ll try and break you, just don’t let them! Show them what happens when the get on the bad side of a dragoon!” She was grinning at the last part. Fear was no longer present and love was in its place. I took that time to get it out of my system right now...I cried it out, not wanting to she a single emotion at the fools that were bound to give me shit. Shining went back to the course to give Velvet and I some privacy. She just sat there and let me cry in her fur, petting and cooing at me the whole time. She saw me as I was at the moment, a lost little colt.
I hadn’t cried in a long time. Now that I think about it, I hadn’t cried since I lost tou san. Meaning the pain and anguish had been in me for almost twenty years. “mommy” I murmured in Velvet’s loving bosom.
“Shh, it’s alright baby. Just let out. Let it all out. Momma’s here” Velvet continued to comfort me. Then something I should have seen coming happened. Cadence and Twilight along with Barb joined in on the comforting me. I could sense Shining, but he left it to the emotional part to the mares. After about a minute of that, I felt better. “DId you get it out of your system, Stom?” Velvet asked in a motherly tone. I nodded my head.
“Storm!” All eyes turned to Barb. Suddenly, I’m glad that this change was made. She’s just too cute! Barb climbed onto my back and tried to clamp into my back. Dragons usually have spikes, but I don’t have them. Focusing on my spine, I try to extend it like I do with my blades, nothing. It’s a good thing to. I wouldn’t want herself on my blades! Barb grabbed my back and clamped to it and took a small nap, on me using some type of magic magnetism. So that’s how it worked! Every time I asked the Dragonesses in the pride the just said “You’ll find out when you’re older”. That is by far the most annoying answer in the world!
Cadence hands me the baby bag I made for bard out of my own feathers. “There’s plenty of guava in there but she prefers the mango mix you make her. I attempted replicating it, but of nothing. She spits it out in my face and goes for the guava!” No one bothers shushing her, once a hatchling takes a nap they’re out. Laughing at her predicament, I motion to the kitchen. The girls follow me and Velvet keeps cheering on her son.
One does not simply walk into the royal kitchen, they walk in like it’s their fucking birthright! I received a warm welcome from the dogs and griffons that resided in the kitchen. I make good food and share, so yeah they’d like me! I was in on of my preferred elements, a kitchen! All was right.
The girls on the other hand, were a little disturbed. I had brought them into the kitchen for meat eaters! And they were no doubt working on the platter for those who partook, it smelled delicious. Never so quickly have I left a kitchen. Twilight almost puked at the smell of cooking meat. Now that I’m in a kitchen that they should be comfortable with, I give them the ingredients for the mix. I gave Barab a little pat and she sighed in comfort. There’s nothing better for a hatchling than to sleep on an older dragon.
When The ingredients were ready for me, I diced them and put them in the blender. The mix was almost done it was just missing one thing, the very thing that they couldn’t replicate. Placing the contents in an enchanted container. I placed it to my mouth and released a small white flame. Now that it was simmering, I decided to pour some into a bottle (again custom made by me for her) and wake Barb up to give her some food. Funny thing is this ain’t baby formula, it’s my draconic protein shake! Albeit with minus a few key ingredients that she can’t process yet. Waking her was easy enough, I just unlatched her from her comfy place.
She woke up seconds later, smelled the goodness and demanded it with a cute little roar. “Calm down, sister. I’m giving it to you now.” I gently say to Barb as she began whining. As soon as the bottle was to her mouth, she devoured it.
“Sister?” Both Twily and Candy asked me. I got to explaining that Dragons (in the empire at least, I don’t know or care for the dogs of the kingdom) share an ancestral kinship at some point in time. So when I called Barb sister, I meant so in spirit. Twily was excited about learning something new about dragons (the Empire’s at least). Candy was more happy to see me caretaking a hatchling. She didn’t like me at first for my lustful nature and exceedingly violent cutie mark and no, that’s not a double negative. She hated my ass for the first couple of visits, until she caught me studying with Twilight. Needless to say Celestia also gave her the true interpretation of my cutie mark. It may be one of my kill moves, but a sword can be used in defence and that was what it truly meant. Defending what I care for come hell or highwater!
As soon as her bottle was done, Barb went back into her slumber. While I was enjoying spending time with the girls, I had other things to do. LIke getting ready to stand and greet nobles with Celly, yay.
It was time for me to don the blue hoodie (silk) and white jacket (denim), I thought I make a classic (that Equestria has never know) my own and I think the white and blue made an amazing comparison to my scales. Hell, I’m just glad my tailor and a friend that moved from the empire to Fillydelphia to set up business didn't make too much of a fuss when I told her it was my Gala Outfit. She didn’t deviate from the design I drew her. Shit, she even gave hoodie a tie that extended from the neck. Nice work Matoi Ryuuko! “I look pimp in this shit!” I declare from my guest room (Celly won’t let me see my room until after the gala).
“Yes, you do look quite ‘pimp’ Storm. Now are you ready to go we have to be there before the gala opens to the public.” I nod her an affirmative and steel myself to go. Then I get a good look at her Dress. Thee dress itself was gorgeous But what really got me was the color. Black, Celly was wearing black!
“You talked with my tailor, didn’t you?” She didn’t even deny it, not like I asked for nondisclosure. And I don’t blame Ryuuko for informing her, a royal design would be the highlight of her career. The dress matched my theme, she looked like it was inspired by the 1930’s the sun was a big pattern on it and the lacing was extravagant. “Copycat!” Celly stuck her tongue out at me. “But it does look damn good on you. Ryuuko did some good work! Give me a spin.” She did a spin for me, she looked awesome and I spared no effort in telling her that!
With the both of us ready to party, we made our way to the ballroom. No one but the staff and the Band was there. I take that back there was another pony setting up something on one of the stages. Speakers, this filly was setting up sound equipment. Giving her another good look, I noticed she was a white unicorn with a two-toned blue mane and her flank was blank. It couldn’t be...could it?
“Excuse me miss, but is your name Vinyl Scratch?” I ask once again, fuck subtlety.
The filly gave me the once over right quick. “Does she owe you money or something?” The filly, that by this point I’m sure is Vinyl asks. I know where this is going!
“No, she does not. I was just hoping to see or rather hear her drop some bass tonight. I don’t know if you know, but for the most important dance in Equestria, this shit is boring as all fuck!”
“Storm Shadow!” Celly heard my statement but her angry face changed to a goofy grin. “Yes, you’re right it is.” She whispered in a tone that only my ears would pick up.
“Dude, you just dissed the GGG in front of the princess, that’s hardcore! There’s no way I’d owe anyone like you money, so yeah I'm Vinyl Scratch!” She jostles her glasses a bit. Too bad she’s trying to hide those beautiful red eyes. Yeah, I’m one to talk about hiding!
“Yeah and did you notice that all she did was yell at me a bit. I’m her escort for this shindig. Wait until the end and you’ll hear something good about me too, you won’t believe it!” She already looked like she didn’t believe me, so I went up to Celly and kissed her on the cheek. That earned me a small blush from her and a dropped jaw from Vinyl. So bass ain’t the only thing she can drop. Once again my eyes went for the flanks of the now working Vinyl. I snapped out of it before Celly caught me and walked up to the Band. “You guys practice what I gave you?” They gave me the affirmative, excellent. We’re gonna play something fun but it won’t be Johnny b goode! SGT Doe was standing at attention doing yet another perimeter check, this must be her first gala. As I walk up to her, the doors open and the ponies slowly flood the room. It was time for me to take my place next to Celly, her speech was coming up soon!
She gave the basic “Welcome to the gala and have fun” speech, so I tuned out that part. “Everypony” Ugh that word! “It is with the utmost pleasure that I introduce you all to my young ward Storm Shadow. He will be a member of the Sol Guard as of tomorrow!” Great and here come the whispers. The worst part is I can hear all of them!
“What is the princess thinking, adopting a monster such as that!” one of them whispered to either themselves or a compatriot, I don’t really care what these foalish ponies think about me. They’d soon be eating their words once they’ve had a taste of my power. I hear another one making me sound like some sort of pet project. Celestia must know that not all of her little ponies are as into love and tolerate as she thinks.
Not even ten minutes after the gala had commenced, we started reciveing asskissers, I mean wellwihsers. It was funny when the monster lady and husband got to us, I noticed their voices. “Next time you call someone a pet or a monster, remember that they can probably hear you.” I inform the couple while giving a toothy grin. They were fighting the urge to piss themselves. Celly even made them apologize and the frosting on the cake was the “I’m disappointed in you look she gave them” I wanted to remember their faces, so I took a good look. Holy shit, its Jetset and Upper Crust! No wonder I didn’t like them from the second the stepped up!
Most of the ponies we greeted were ones I didn’t know. Then something made my night, Prism and Maxi came up. “Prism, Maxi It’s good to see you!” I say as I’m shaking his hoof and I wanted to hug, if not kiss Prism but that wouldn’t go well for me.
“So, you’re the princess’ ward nod are you? That’s amazing news!” Maxi cried, happy for my step up in life. Prism however was a different case. I could feel the sorrow in her and a touch of anguish.
“Sir may I steal a dance with you date. I won’t be able to see her for a month after tomorrow.” Maxi gives me the okay and I fly to a higher level with Prism onto the balcony. “You’re not losing me, it’ll be the reverse of how it’s been since now. Nothing in the world could keep me to from seeing you and Dash, not even Celestia. You know that right?” That made the tears and the doubt stop. We finished our dance in mid air. Landing down on the balcony where Maxi was waiting, I let go of Prism and fly back to Celly to greet ponies for another hour before it was showtime.
Placing my hood upon my head, I took flight to the center stage. The band and the small crew I had prepared (Tidus, d’Artagnan, And Unique) were ready to roll. As soon as I touched down on stage the act began. We performed Smooth Criminal, with the full choreography. We killed it. It took us a while to pull off the anti gravity lean in practice, but we nailed it in the performance. The common ponies were eating it up. They loved us. The upper crust (no pun intended) had mixed reviews. Until hooves started stomping for a standing o! I looked around for the inciter of the riot and it was non other than motherfucking Fancy Pants, albeit a much younger version. So I guess he’s about five to ten years older than Fluer, because she’s nowhere to be seen. Even in his young twenties he’s still got the juice in Canterlot.
We went with the song we had prepared, Beat it! Handing a audio record jem to Vinyl, the crew and I get ready to jam. The crew however wasn't’ expecting Cadence to get on stage and duet the song with me! Just like we planned. The first time she heard me singing Beat It, she fell in love with the song. I really didn’t think she’d like that song but oh well. Her voice was dazzling, so it made me happy I can change my vocal cords a bit. Not saying that’s what I did though. No one had ever really heard her sing before, so that got rid of all the neighsayers (pun intended)
“That was a sick beat, Vinyl! You’ve definitely got a fan in me” Must resist urge sing Friend Like Me! Good news was I didn’t sing it. Cadence and I went back to our respective places while the band changed their instruments for a waltz. Flying back to where I once was Cellly hugged when I landed.
“That was an amazing performance! You even got my niece to sing in public!” Celly was elated.
“Yeah that wasn’t easy. When she heard me singing, she started singing with me when we had the time. I got her to do this since it was her favourite out of all the songs I sang. As soon as I told her I was doing this for you, she was in. I’m glad you’re happy Celly” I held out my claw and she grabbed it. We waltzed on the dance floor. Every pony cleared the way for us. Shining gave me a brohoof for dancing with the princess. It’s sad that I can honestly say that no one else would have done this. Celestia’s too wonderful and beautiful to be alone like this. No more I say! She has me now, a friend that cares for her unconditionally. Who knows, maybe in time deeper feelings could arise?
Some eyes were filled with shock and other awe that the princess was on the dance floor and with me no less. After we got two good long waltzes in. I can’t believe it, the gala’s almost over without incident. By the ancestors, when the fuck am I gonna learn not to tempt the fucking fates!
“Storm, you’re probably not going to learn, ever! This type of shit happens randomly, so not even I can tell you when it’s going to occur.”
The bands instruments were playing a melody of their own and specters appeared out of thin air! Ponies ran away in mass numbers. “Celly, you need to get out of here!” she hesitated for a moment “CELESTIA, BUNKER, NOW.” That snapped her out of it and She left, allowing the sol guard (thank you for being paranoid SGT) do their job.
Doe walked up to me with an asking look. “The present is in the box, ma’am!” I saluted my superior.
“Good work CPL, wanna punch in early?” Did she even need to ask me?
Taking off my clothes and putting them in a safe place, I run into the fray with Doe. Doe was bucking and piercing the specters with her legs and lance while I was getting my pyro on. White flames are as strong as black ones so the burned just the same.! Sadly enough, the unicorns had either gone to secure the VIP (Celestia) or were in charge of evac (teleporting any non guard the fuck out), so we had no magical backup.
I took a few hits, some of these things actually got through my scales. Doe watched in awe (while still fighting) as I healed from my wounds. It didn’t take long for us to get outnumbered. It was time to changed tactics I switched into katana mode and went back to back with doe I gutted what came close and she handled the range. One of the fuckers started strangling Doe! She tried to fight it off but it wasn’t happening.
Blasting a barrier of flame from my side to by me the time to save her, “Get the fuck off of her, you little shit!”I do a forward thrust to avoid hurting Doe. But she had strayed too far, I wasn’t gonna fucking reach. *sizzle swish*
“What the fuck! did you do Shadow?!” Doe asked me while gagging a bit, still using her lance to even the odds. I think I can absorb and redirect mana! I’m a mana sponge, nice one Eris! Oh yeah, I think I’m gonna like this! Well nothing makes a technique feel stronger than giving it a name.
“Holy fang, that’s what happened!” I repeated as much as I could but since I don’t have a horn of my own yet, I can only go so long without absorbing mana for more holy fangs. These things were pure energy but they seem to be pulsating with… the rhythm! Vinyl was still in her booth, ducking away to be unseen by the monsters. She’s still just a pony after all. “Vinyl, I need you severely disrupt their rhythm!” She was lost and scared, I could feel it.
Gotta say something to motivate her, she’s still a musician after all. “Vinyl, drop it hard. Harder than you’ve ever dropped it before! GIve me an epic eargasm with you wubs!”
I think that did it. She’s looking for a beat. “Wub a dub dub Motherfuckers!!!” As viny was in the zone. “D to the to the P.O.N. 3” My plan was working. The orchestral specters were losing to the power of the wubs. Get it girl! As the music continued the rest of the company (non unicorn) continued the battle. It was epic! There was bucking diving smashing stabbing and of course slashing! By the time Vinyl had cut her track, someone made it to the instruments and pulled an el kabong. I managed to save a small chunk of that shit. Maybe a specialist can track the fucker down who hexed the party. With the amount of sweeps Doe had ordered there’s no way it was here before the gala. So a pony had to have a hex stone on them.
“SGT, radio, now!” she handed me her radio after givng me a don’t take that tone with me look. “Attention all unicorns, this is CPL Storm Shadow of the Sol Guard! Shining armor, cast your shield over the castle! No one gets in or out until we find the fool responsible!”
“Copy that, SGT” I could see the shield from the window.
“Every other unicorn, I need a powerful hex finder spell to be cast. Pool your mana if you must! Once the culprit is found, Anyone not actively in a spell has permission to use whatever force necessary!” They didn’t question my orders. Since Celly was in her bunker and at this point Blue Blood is but a child and Cadence has no military experience. I relayed the message. Hoping that Night Light would back me up on this one, if he was here. If not, I had been publicly announced as Celestia’s ward so they might just listen.
“Hey DJ PON3, check your flank!” Vinyl looked down and squealed. She got a cutie mark in her desired field, music!
Five minutes later the perp was caught, by Cadence no less! Well she casted the spell, but shining and Nightlight did the knocking out. It was some mare by the name of Bitter Sweet. She was a lime green unicorn that kinda reminded me of Lyra a bit. What are the chances of it being her mother...Nah!
“Well done CPL, and it’s just your first day too!” I was going to ask her what she meant but I spotted theh, She was right!
Celly appeared behind me. “You’ve had quite the first day on the job, huh Storm?” She said with a grin. Damn it Celly!
“I couldn’t say it any better, kid” NIght Light sighed. He had seen some of the action since his team was in the front line defending the party goers while we were working on eliminating the threat. Well, this is going to be a fun report to write! I opened my door and noticed it had been decked out with the theme of the Draconic Empire (the japanese part of it to be specific) I’d look at i more later, right now is sleepy time. I hopped in bed and entered my slumber even though it would be a short one. I noticed a very plush white something in my ever fading vision.
“Good night Storm Shadow.” Celly hugged and kissed me and then I was gone.
It’s been a month since the gala and my quick thinking gained me some acclaim with the brass. That however did not stop me from looking over my shoulder (metaphorically speaking) for anyone that wished me ill. Doe gave me a squad of three and low and behold that there was only one pony in the batch. Burning Soul (artillery and demolition), a unicorn Stallion with a nice medium muscle build and a striped coat. According to his dossier, he was half dragon (mother) and a quarter zebra on his father’s. Shit, even his horn was striped! He was a full quadruped, unlike me who had no problem walking on two legs. The teeth and eyes screamed dragon but everything else looked pony. The guy was babyfaced though had a few battle scars. Good, he’s a battle mage.
The next on my team was a bitch, literally. Sasha Landers (Sniper), damn does she have a human name or what? I was glad that Fido wasn’t a template for diamond dogs. Sasha was a Doberman and a beautiful one at that. Her files said she pulled off the Stalliongrad job on her own and from 6Km away with a raggedy ass bow. I wonder how she’s liking the compound bow I made for her! “CPL, that bow you made me works like a charm! I love it and I love you, sir.” Sasha said to me in her sexy as all fuck English accent and kissed me. Dogs were an intimate race, so it wasn’t a problem. As for her look and personality, fuse Bernadette Mataki (in her prime) and Sam Bryne (looks and skill) and make her a dog and boom! I had to kill the gearhead in me when I first met her, I knew we’d be getting on well.
The last member of my group was another predator. Medusa, I pause to even think her last name... Gorgon. Talk about history repeating itself. Medusa was a Lamia (Snake person) that possessed ample breast a lovely face and a well toned body. Once again another beauty was placed in my squad, I’m beginning to think that the brass has a bet going on for how long it takes me to fuck one if not both of these ladies. I’m losing my point here! Medusa was my (other) heavy hitter, however I wouldn’t be counting on her in cold climates since lamia are extremely cold blooded. A dragon won’t hibernate unless you submerge it in a shit ton of snow, as for me, I'd just be cold and annoyed. The plus side of being walking flamethrowers. I'm just glad that I don’t have to worry about that shit since I’m a hybrid, all the strengths of both races and few of the weaknesses.
“Medusa, how’s that mana blade I made working for you?” I ask, wanting feedback on my invention. Seriously, why haven’t ponies thought of this shit? She was toting a souped up katana the size of me that had a small groove for placing of enchanted stones for elemental damage. My mana lock system allowed more efficient use of enchantments by using a new type of crystal I (accidentally) created while trying to make Twilight an enhanced record crystal. Charging a spell into the crystal allowed it to lock in the specific element the spell used and the spell flowed from the stone into the grooves in the blade. It was easier to enchant a small device and make the enchantment flow than to to enchant a device over and over again. I modeled the blade after Saya’s sword from Blood+. I wanted to make a Red Queen, but that would’ve just been a replica and not a working model, so fuck it I’ll work on the rotation device later!
“Like Landers said with the bow, It works like a charm. I wonder why ponies never thought of something like this since they’re the only ones with magic!”
“I know right?!” I replied in excitement at my creation. Funny part is the four of us were talking while we were eating manticore steak in the mess. They don't have a separate wing for meat eaters so we got to watch some of the newer troops hold back their bile at our food of choice, it was hilarious! I eat lunch and dinner with the troops and spend breakfast with Celly. The four of us together make Echo Squad.
Lunch went by quickly, it wasn’t long before we were back on the yard doing some drills. Today’s gonna be a nice day! Oh shit, here comes Shining and his crew. "Shining, what's up bro?" I asked in all honesty since we haven't spoken in two weeks. I wonder if he's still mad about the course.
“I’m just fine CPL!” He muttered through gritted teeth. So he’s still mad that I destroyed his course record. I don’t think he’ll be getting over that anytime soon, I’ll just let that simmer down. He’s working his squad hard to get his anger out of him, too hard in fact!
“I think you should lay off before your squad files for transfer, Shiny. Pops won’t be pleased if that happens you know.” I say while putting my claw on his shoulder.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, my crew is going….strong?” He finally took a look at his crew. They were minutes from needing to be put in sickbed. “Okay crew, that’s enough, for the week I think. Get some rest!” They all gave the standard pony salute, a salute to which my crew and I don’t use. We pay homage to my time in the Empire and use a closed fist to the heart with my arm at a right angle. Shiny gives me a small word of thanks and exits the field with his crew. I think he’ll be giving them light drill duty for a bit to compensate for overdoing it.
Medusa and I are sparring (I’m using a real katana) with each other while Soul was running laps and Sasha was doing target practice (blindfolded). Medusa nicked me when I was distracted with Sasha’s amazingness. “Watashi ni shūchū suru kawari ni, kanojo no, ma nuke!” Medusa spoke our maiden tongue to snap me out of it. She’s right I do need to focus on her instead of Sasha’s fine ass, otherwise I’m in trouble here. I was tangled in her tail by the time I snapped out of my lust and wonder.
“You know this is kinda hot, Medusa!” I say while feeling her up and cutting her top off with my tail She blushed and let me go to hide her shame, much to my chagrin. “Cheater, pervert!” How adorable.
“You don’t mean a word of that honey and you know it. NIce rack by the way.” She lets me get an eyeful of it. and readies herself to continue the sparring. I toss her my jacket, she may have an amazing rack but it’s not worth getting stabbed and slashed with a lacerating Mana blade even if it takes a lot of force to cut through, that shit still hurts. Healing factor or no pain lingers for a while and stacks up.
“Are you sure you want to give me this, I mean you can’t take your eyes off me! I kind of like it.” Most lamia are shy, most. Medusa is by no means a slut but she is very open with her sexualtiy and doesn’t mind me looking, much. I’m very tempted to take her up on her offer, but it would be best to give her some clothing.
“You can keep the jacket, it looks good on you.” I say as I rip the CPL patches off of it. Truth be told I bought that jacket for Night Fury from the apparel store on the common ground near the barracks when I was walking along and she has only worn it once! It was intended for a woman anyway. Besides I can get a better one for myself that can pass ass unisex for me and cute for her! That one was a little to thermal for my taste anyway. It was one of those cute half jackets that went to breast level. It didn’t look that way on me since Night Fury is much larger than I am. Hell the females tend to be larger (and more developed) than the males at our age anyway, so no one questioned me wearing it, but Celly. She caught NIght Fury in the act of tail fucking. Damn that was an awkward conversation, until she went shopping with me for apparel and accessories for her! I stayed went since Night Fury wasn’t much for clothes shopping and I just love all shopping. Hey Eris is it odd that I’m referring my female self as if she’s another person?
“I wouldn’t say so since your personalities are flipped to a point. You’re cool in my book.” Great ,my lady approves back to the training.
As if to tempt me further, she puts the jacket on but refrained from zipping it up to leave her glory in my vision. She must think I’ll slip up just because she slips me a little nip. Sorry honey that ain’t gonna happen! Medusa gave a vertical slash while I countered with a more powerful spinning slice, knocking the blade into the air and going in for the “kill” “I yield” I asked if she wanted another round but she replied negative.
“Keep that fire burning and you’ll become a Sergeant in no time, CPL!” That voice that had an air of a big sister talking to her little brother could only belong to one woman, Doe!
“SGT on deck!” we all give the Draconic salute to Doe.
“At ease, soldiers!” We all dropped our attention stance and continued what we were doing last. “Care to give me a spar, it looks like you want more.”
“Negative, ma’am. I have a meeting with Celly today and it’s best I hit the showers!”
Doe gave me a stern look of outrage. “You aren’t to attend Evening court with her highness for several hours and you’re still on duty! My request to spar just became an order, CPL!” Ah shit, she’s pulling rank. I must’ve offended her. Woah!!
Dodging at the last second, I avoid her new lance. She was sporting another invention of mine. Her lance had a small boost device in it that utilized her vectoral thrust and greatly increased the impact it wouldn’t go through my scales in one hit, but continued damage could lead to me actually bleeding. “Pansy” I love you too, Eris.
“You’d fucking better, darling.” Getting my mind back in the game, I continue dodging Doe’s lance. DIdn’t take me long to switch from dodging to parrying. Since she was using a lance, she had limited attacks, I however was using a katana (non-lethal debuffed). Backstepping her thrust once more, I feint a thust and go into an upwards slice and send her in the air. That was a mistake! Doe came down, her lance heading for me in full rotation. That would really hurt if it connected, so I dodged the last minute and let Doe’s weapon get lodged in the ground.
Doe went in for a buck, it connected and sent me flying in the opposite direction. I've had enough of this shit! SInce Doe went with melee, I put my blade in the ground as well and went down on all fours and speed to her so fast I was creating afterimages. Circling around her and striking her whole body in an unrelenting tirade of punches kicks and tailwhips, I could tell she’d had enough but I gave her a downward kick for good measure. “Ok, I give!” Picking up the blade from the ground and returning it from whence it came, I leave the field and look for my shining friend. After the coast is clear, I shift into Night fury and look for him.
“Hi Storm...um Night, how was the workout?” I swear does looking for Shiny summon Candy or something?
“It went well, Candy. Have you seen Shiny anywhere. I really need to speak with him!”
“Oh is he still mad about the record or is it about thinking he and I were a thing?” I still couldn’t believe that Shining and Cadence weren’t a thing but, that gave me room to get mine! “Go get him girl! Just remember, he has no experience with girls” She’s reading my mind damn love princess! “Relax, I haven’t told him about who you are so you can hit on him as much as you like!” She was happy I had embraced love (even if it’s in a form that was Storms opposite). She loves seeing her friends in love without the help of her “talent”
“You don’t have to tell me twice, princess I Love Everything!” Candy hates it when I call her by the literal translation of her name. As we were talking, the shining heartthrob came into our view. My heart skipped a beat and I got nervous...I actually got nervous! Maybe this isn’t a good Idea right now!
“Oh what’s this, is my big strong champion cowering before a meager stallion?”
Shining Armor is not meager, he is a serious cutie and I’m not cowering it’s just...what if he doesn’t like me? I mean I am a whorse!
“If he can’t see past that than he’s an idiot! Now stop worrying about stupid stuff and go get him!” But… “BITCH, DID I STUTTER?! Go. Get. What’s. Yours. Or do you want Cadence to nab him?” That snapped me out of it.
“Wish me luck, girl!” Cadence and I both squeed. I fucking squeed, must be the hormones. Oh shit, I’m getting closer, oh shit! I bit my lower lip to calm myself down, my tail was swishing back and forth in a sexy manner. I really hope I don’t spook him. Craning my neck, I could see Cadence was giving me a full on “you go girl!”hoof pump, she really wants to see me happy. When she found out about me she actually accepted it! Shit, she was even happier to find out about...well me when she caught me tail fucking myself along with Celly that day as I was screaming Shiny’s name to the heavens above! It’s just funny that Storm tuned into me so often that instead of a warped personality I became what I am now, his female side. Ranma eat ya fuckin heart out! With her lack of female friends that don’t see her as a princess as well, it was no surprise that we became so tight so soon.
I spot a reflective plate in the archway. “Well, you going or not, Fury?” Well, that’s new Storm just talked to me. I guess this confirms we’re different parts of a whole. “Just saying, I wouldn’t hesitate like this if what I wanted was in front of me.” Well you’re not me are you, asshole! “You’re right, I’m your flipside! Now get moving before some groupie gets him!” Everyone is rooting for me! Let’s do this!
Moving forward, I continue my strut of sexyness. Toning it down just wouldn’t be me. Shining turns and our eyes met! No turning back now! “Eyes met, it’s time for a battle, hon!” What do you think this is Eris, motherfucking Pokemon? Disregarding Eris’ silliness “Hey!” I head closer to my prey, letting my eyes and strut do the talking for me until I get to him….he’s drooling. No he’s drooling with his eyes, that’s it take it big boy!
“Hi there, Shining Armor.” I said that in full sex goddess mode. If that didn’t work then I don’t know what will.
“Hi *cough*. Hey there. You clearly know who I am, will you give me the honor of your name.” His voice cracked when he talked to me and he tried to cover it up by talking in a lower tone, kawaii! Great I sound like cougar! on to business!
“My name is Night Fury, I’m a cousin of Storm’s. Oh and that’s a nice sword you got there.” He wasn’t holding a sword. I could feel my tongue licking at my lips from the inside. It took him a few seconds to cover his shame, maybe I should have toned it down a bit. Nah that just ain’t my style! It was just too much! Maybe I should give.him a minute. I wonder what he was doing before I came around. Working on his shield maybe? There was a faint aura around his horn, yeah it was shield practice.
“Heh, so you’re Storm’s cousin. That explains why you look like him! I’m guessing that you two have similar talents since you have similar cutie marks.” Wait what, I don’t look a thing like him! I'm probably gonna get an earful when I go to a mirror. But who cares anyway, he’ll still help me since my happiness is his happiness! “Sorry, was that a sore subject?” Damn is he nervous or what?
“It’s okay, it’s just no one’s ever said that before. Since you’re all revved up and all, how about you help me out with a new ninja move of mine that Storm taught me.”
“Um, yeah I’ll help you with that. What do you need?” He’s so eager to please me! This is going to be fun!
“I just need you to pay close attention to me.” LIke that’s gonna be a problem! I used the afterimage technique Storm had just used on Doe, that skill needs work! I dug a few holes and jumped in one.
“Wrong answer, try again!” I repeated the process, this time eliminating a hole from the equation. I could feel his emotions from my hole. This sweet and tart feeling was temptation. He was considering cheating.
Shining went to the right hole and received another blast to the face. I could feel amusement and hear him chuckling. Good he’s having fun! “I’m gonna get you this time.” Shining’s getting into the mood of things. With another round shunpo (it’s easier to say than flash stepping), we began the game again. He poked his head down the middle hole and I popped my head out and kissed him on the muzzle. Shining paused for a second and blinked “Wha, what?” He’s just too cute right now!
We play the game for another five minutes, He got an actual kiss on his last success. Things were going well, I got him interested in me at least! That was the easy part, getting him to love me might be trickier. “That was really fun, Fury. Did you have anything else you wanted to try?”
“Not at this second Shining. Wanna meet up again tomorrow?” My heart was racing, hoping for the best answer rather than the worst.
“Yeah, okay. Same time tomorrow then!” He turned around and walked off for the showers. Part of me was tempted to change into Storm and go in there.
“I’ll have no part in that type of shit young lady!” Looks like he doesn’t like that idea. I should have known that he wouldn’t let me use his body for my acts of perversion. I could feel his glare in my head. Okay I’m sorry alright! now go back to your part of the brain! “No problem It wouldn’t have worked anyway, I need to give you permission to use my body and vice versa.” Well that’s good to know, I won’t have to worry about him doing naughty things to me at night!
“Ooh.” Someone just smacked my ass, they had better have the bits to play Matawa karera wa shinde iru! And that ain’t no idle death threat either! I started looking around in fury.
“Relax drama queen, it was just me!” Candy replied to me. “Nice job with the play kisses and the real one!” Oh sweet ancestors, she was watching that!
“How long have you been watching us?” I think I might regret askin that question.
“About halfway in! You two are going to be the cutest couple!” She hugged me while she said that and I used that opportunity to take a nice hard grab of her ass. Damn that’s a nice ass, up there with her aunt in that regard. "Are you done groping me yet?" She giggled as she said that. Funny how I can get away with it, but Storm can't. I could feel Storm slouching in defeat.
I headed for the showers and she joined me. It was not sexual. After our smalltalk in the shower while “freshening up” for court, I was ready to go to Celly, except the appointment was for Storm and not his “cousin”, so I had to change back. “Hey candy, can you use the perception spell?”
“Yeah, I can do that easy! Aunt Celestia had that one drilled into me.” With the spell cast and me out of sight and mind to everyone but Candy, I think it’s time to switch.
“Okay candygirl, I’m back” She dropped the spell. I thank her for the help and fly to my suite. I’m just glad that Celly let me move puzzle into the castle. After all I refused to up and leave her since she was sworn to me and not Prism!
“Boss, we have a new filly starting today. Celestia had her transferred here.” Puzzle said to me in her usual adoring tone (when it came to me at least) “She’s here right now, along with the princess!” Great so this new girl isn’t optional! I’ve been here for two months with only one primary servant, It was only a matter of time until Celly found one she approved of when I told her quality and not quantity. Either way, I made myself clear that it had to be a she and she’d have to be willing to deal with my “urges” when they arise.
Puzzle opened the door for me and I was assaulted by a pair of alabaster wings, planting my face in the bosom of the ruler of Equestria. “Stormy, you’re late!” Celly said in a pouting tone. She seemed like she was a teenage filly complaining to her coltriend and not the ruler of Equestria for a few thousand years! But that’s the effect I have on her, I let her be young. Celly had to grow up fast to raise Luna after all. I won’t be pressing into that situation at all. I’d like to avoid a tender subject like that and just let her be happy. Shit her happiness makes me happy as well and not just because I’m half changeling.
“I know, I’m sorry. Doe got mad at me and made me duel her and I came up with a bridge for a new technique I’m gonna be working on!” I tell her as I'm hugging her
“Oh, are you sure Shining Armor didn’t have anything to do with your being late?” I blushed up a storm and *switch*
“Mou, why are you being so mean Celly! You know full well Storm and I are different people, so why’d ya have ta bring that up with him?!” I say still blushin like a mad mare!
Celly put on her “you’re so cute!” smile and hugged me. “Because you made him late, dear Night Fury. That and It was fun to watch you forcibly switch places with him! Now please change back into Storm.” Shoulda known it was trap!
With the mind and body swap done, it was back to business with Celly. I went to open the door, but she insisted on doing it herself. She draped the door in her twinkling aura. I could see the form of a unicorn sitting in the sitting room. No sooner than I went for the sitting room was I bashed by Celly’s mane. I get it, wait here and let you do the “unveiling”. After all , this girl will most likely be serving me for the rest of her life.
“Storm Shadow, it is without further adieu that I present unto you your newest maid! You may now enter the sitting room!” The figure looked my way and I could sense happiness coming from her. Let it never be said that I'm rude! As I went to open the door to my sitting room, I could feel her (and for some reason my) elation. Celestia was smiling her “you’re going to love this smile. So I just knew this was going good!
She had a scar on her head, said scarf was big enough to cover hide her face from me until such time that she raised her head. I sat down on the pillow adjacent to her while Celly and Puzzle stayed outside. “Allow me to pour you some tea, Goshujinsama!” With a smell from the tea, I could tell that she hand brewed this. So she’s wearing a kimono, knows japanese, and the way of tea. Judging by that figure, she’s sexy as all get out! The chances of me (metaphorically) jizzing myself as soon as I see her are high.
She pours me the tea and hands me my favourite molasses cookies. Without missing a beat, I munch on a cookie and sip from my tea. Damn this is good tea! “Is everything to your liking, Goshujinsama?” I don’t care if she’s hot at this stage, her manners and skills alone make me want to take her right here!
“Subarashii, I have no problem with your tea! To do this of course is my place, I shall now ask you to see your face!” Great now I’m rhyming, I should leave that to Zecora! The unicorn looks to Celly and Celly nodded.
With Celly’s consent, she did as I asked. “It is good to meet you Goshujinsama! Watashi no namae wa Fleur de Lis! It is an honor to serve you, Goshujinsama.” She said while doing the perfect japanese bow. It took Puzzle a week to get that form down and she does it naturally. I think I'm in love! Oh I am gonna enjoy this. Puzzle stepped on my foot. What was that for?
You’re drooling all over her! I mean yeah, she's hot. But what do you think that does to my confidence, boss? Shit, I’m making her feel bad! I reached out and (discretely) grabbed me a clawful of that sweet puzzle ass. She came in closer to nuzzle in my lap.
“Could it be that you’re wanting night services already, Goshujinsama?” She lustily said while Puzzle was purring my title in happiness at the attention I was giving her.
Celestia gave a stern look. “While I’m certain you’ve heard of his stamina, he will be busy today in evening court in an hours time. He does not have the time to play. Storm is merely giving his long standing servant some much needed attention. The poor thing has been working herself ragged! With you now here, her duties will be cut in half. Storm finish comforting miss Piece and let’s get moving!”
“Yes, Celly!” I say in mock enthusiasm. I get to deal with a bunch of asskissers, yay. “You two get along okay?” I say as I grab the formal wear jacket from my wardrobe. Celly assures me that It wasn’t necessary to say that since the two had know each other for a month. Apparently it was Puzzle that brought Fleur to Celestia’s attention as a candidate for my maid so Puzzle could put more attention on assisting me with my office matters. She still has house chores to do but her duties will primarily be keeping me on schedule and being a go between for Celly or anyone needing to speak with me.
Evening court is nowhere near as bad as day court believe it or not. Considering the time of day, the horrid lot are usually at home porking their wives, husbands or servants (something I will be doing with Fleur tonight!). “Evening court is in session, you may now file your thanks or grievances! “ That voice, it can’t be!
“Thank you Shimmer, you may be seated.” Celestia said with pride in her voice. Sunset Shimmer is a guard? What really surprised me was the fact that she wasn’t on where I thought she’d be. Sunset sat at Celestia’s left, what the actual fuck. Eris?
“I’m as surprised as you are, lover! Throw that one in as, well you know by now!” I had been in the guard for two months and I had no idea about this! Then again I've been to too busy with my missions with Echo or as some pony called us as an insult, the monster squad. Quite frankly, we liked that name. It stated our beastlyness. But back to the point Sunset fucking Shimmer! She’s gotta be on a mage team!
“So Sunset, do you mind if I ask your rank and crew. I’ve never seen you around but I know who you are, or rather who you were.”
Shimmer gave me the warmest, honest, and qute frankly sexyest smile I’d seen in a while. If she’s not taken and into stallions, she’s going on my buckit list! “Im in a captain in the Magical Emergency Response And Recon Team also known as M.E.R.A.R.T nopony’s brought my status as a student of the princess up in a while either” Getting a good look at her, she was about 26 give or take four years. So Twilight was taken on naturally and not forcefully, good for her.
Looks like court is going to be uneventful as usual. Construction here, demolition there. Oh and let’s not forget the shelters need a bigger budget. “Introducing Lady Soot Hoof of Trottingham!” Her entourage was going full force with her accompaniment. I could tell Celly wasn’t amused, it was the opposite in fact!
I could feel her discomfort growing and I could take no more of this. “SILENCE” I roared in a voice rivaling the royal Canterlot voice. And for good measure, I had my “bitch I eat people” look on. Sunset back me up on my demand. Not a soul spoke or made a move. “You may enter Soot Hoof, but your entourage remains outside!” No way in hell was I about to deal with that many security threats. Sunset was on the same wavelength. Also this bitch needs to be dropped down a peg. she’s a mine owner who got lucky, not fucking royalty!
Sunset rested in her seat in a Gendo pose. “You may address the princess, Mayor Soot Hoof.” Oh burn, she just called her mayor instead of the preferred lady! Soot actually looked happy at being called mayor instead of Lady.
“Princess Celestia, your majesty! I come with bad news. The city has gone through a hostile takeover! A band of Griffons and Dogs has the town on lockdown. My guard and I barely made it out alive! I beg of you, help my ponies!”
Before Celestia could say a word, I took the stage. “Miss Soot Hoof, the monster squad will see your town rescued.. Watashi wa sore o chikau!” I swore her my services. Her feelings for her people were the real macoy and I’m not going to leave this to any other team!
*ahem* Celestia cleared her throat. “I agree with Sergeant Storm Shadow on this matter. His team will be going to your aide. Storm have your team on standby while we send a recon team!”
“Yes ma’am, but I’m just a CPL!” I stand to give her my salute.
Celly chuckles a bit. “Consider yourself promoted. There may be another promotion in store for you if you pull this off, now go!” Court was immediately adjourned so Celly could summon her best recon squad. I don’t think it’ll be Shimmer, MERART was more about neutralizing a magical threat and not gathering intel in stealth. I hauled ass to my room to get my battle jacket.
With my jacket on, I make the call on the comms. “Echo, we are on standby .I repeat we are on standby get your asses up! You are to remain in your gear until we are clear for briefing! I need you alert! CPL Shadow out!” With that done, I went to my room and awaited intel which would be awhile. I went to open the door but Fleur opened it for me. She must’ve been waiting for me to return.
Fleur tilted head in confusion “You’re early, Goshujinsama. Court was supposed to last another hour.” Said while bowing in a polite manner. I pat her on the head and kissed her horn.
“There were...complications.” I say with a grim look on my face. Damn I’m tense, I really need to relax a bit. Fleur must've picked up on that, she grabbed me by the claw and took me into the atrium and sat me down to view the stars. What a beautiful night sky! this is what I...Oh yeah.
*Like I even need to tell you what’s going on here CTRL+F call to skip*
My head rolled back as Fleur sucked my dick. It was amazing, I’ll have to thank whoever trained her. On second thought I don’t want to think of anyone but me receiving the wonderful “lip service” I went for her pussy with a claw, said calw was smacked away by a magic hand. “Enjoy this first Goshujinsama! You won’t need to worry about me, I get aroused easily." She said while never relenting the attention she was giving my dick. Oh sweet Luna, sugoi!
Her motions deepened and the use of her tongue enhanced the pleasure I was feeling tenfold. The sight of her head bobbing up and down on my member was amazing. She sought to own me this night."Are you feeling good,” I moaned “Yeah, you’re feeling good” Fleur continued her assault on my member. She grabbed it in magic and licked the the tip with her tongue, rolling it around as she teased my dick. Is this just going to be a blowjob? Either way, I think I’d be fine with that when you consider her skill.
*umah* Fleur let my dick pop out of her mouth for a quick breather. “Relax hon, no need to impress...me!” I yelp in surprise as she deepthroated me without warning. As she continued her ravenous onslaught, I brought my tail to her unsuspecting honeypot. She let out a hum of excitement at my action. I could feel her excitement from her sex, she was steadily backing into it and I could feel the want seeping from her.
"Goshu..jin...sama, hiyaku! I can't take it anymore, mettre en!" Her Prench leaked out, I couldn’t help but smile at that. It was amazing yet disconcerting that my tail prodding and pumping wasn’t making her lose her touch, if anything she was getting better! Ooh shit! IF she keeps this up, I’m gonna blow pretty soon.. She stopped. “Master, are the stories of your stamina true?” Wow, she’s speaking Equish!
“I don’t know about stamina, but I can stay hard and come as long as you feel like fucking. After that I need to rub a few out and I’ll calm down.” Fleur smiled at my statement and got back to working on my phallus. She was in overdrive, well here comes a fun night! “Fleur, I’m gonna blow” Fleur gave a final deep motion and I shot my spunk into her mouth. She made a display of swishing it in her mouth before swallowing it. “Bend over now!” While using my tail on her felt great, I wanted my blade in her sheath, now!
Fleur waved her plot in the air, want clear in her motions. It’s show time! “Echo Squad to the briefing room, Echo Squad to the briefing room.” Well fuck, I just had to get the damn call now! Why is the world blue balling me?
“Damn it!” We both swore at the impeccable timing of that call. Fleur was swishing her hips, but she knew full damn well that I had to go. They had better have a shit ton of intel, or Imma stab a bitch!
I was in the briefing room in three seconds. Which is impressive since the room is a basement clear on the other side of the damn castle!I must have been traveling at speeds somewhere between Quicksilver and the Flash (don’t exactly know who’s faster). I think I like this new possibility, being able to travel on ground about as fast as I can in the air would make for an interesting time (when I mastered it). The rest of the crew got there quickly after, since they lived in the damn barracks and not in a royal suite.
The rest of Echo sat down and we waited for our briefing. “How the hell did you get here before we did, CPL?” Sasha asked in pure curiosity.
I paused to think about that, I trust these guys. “Turns out I can run as fast as I can fly.” their eyes went wide at that but no questions were asked. Medusa was breathing heavily and Soul was doing just fine. The four of us talked about what we think were getting into. I didn’t even have all the intel, so it was purely speculation at this point.
As the door opened, Echo starred in anticipation. With a proud stride COL Nightlight came in the room with CPT Shimmer in towe. So I was wrong and they did use Shimmer’s team to gather the intel. It was most likely out of convenience
They stepped to the podium and placed the crystal in the slot to display the intel via the projector (I begged the COL to let me put a few of my inventions to work, this one is used for every briefing) to display the magical powerpoint.
Nightlight motioned for Shimmer to take the stage. “Alright Echo, this is what we got!” The intel appeared on the board. “Based off our observations, it appears that the Griffons and Dogs in the area appear to be under the sway of mind control. Amongst the controlled, there seems to be an Earth Pony holding onto some spherical device The device has been classified as a 404” 404 means they have no fucking clue, well this should be fun! She pointed to the device…Holy shit, it’s the Apple of Eden!
“You act like this is the first thing from games that’s in this world” Eris was giving me the full “don’t be an idiot” treatment
Yeah, I get it. But in the wrong hands that shit could be devastating! I need to get my claws on that apple and find the others and destroy them if there are any. I’m sure you know what that kind of power can do to someone, it can either make them a god or turn them into a devil. I can’t risk this.
The whole while I kept my cool. If I was to attain the Apple then I’d need to keep it to myself. Celly would have it destroyed before I could find the rest to protect her “little ponies” and that would be bad for the rest of the world. I love the girl, but when it comes to her ponies, she can lose sight of the bigger picture!
“Echo your priority is the neutralization of this device and hopefully this situation. Use of lethal force, while not ethical, shall be approved. If it comes down to you or them, take them out but try to keep casualties to a minimum.”The COL added to our mission priorities. I’m gonna have to work hard in getting that item.
“Sir, Permission to speak?” He nodded his head. “I've been working on stealth technology that utilizes the camouflage spell since pure invisibility is impossible and would like to implement it. I’m still working out the kinks and the power will most likely fade if the mission takes more than a few hours (which it might). But for the time that it’s active, we should be near undetectable as long as we move slowly and avoid direct conflict. I have equipped Lander’s bow with a string silencer and have been working on making my hyper beam absolutely silent and thin if need be. However I’ve come up with long range null-weapons that should aid in taking down the controlled, Sir!” I say in one breath.
Pops grinned menacingly. “Good on ya, SGT! How soon can you have this equipment ready for Echo and better yet mass production for the Sol guard and it’s recon teams?” Sweet, pops gave the seal of approval!
“I’m already wearing mine, would you like to see it in action?” Stupid question, he gave me the go ahead. I blended in to the environment as soon as I pulled my hood down. I used my ninja skills to get out of sight and shuffled to a new area. No one could find me. I wasn’t invisible since that’s impossible, but I was damn close. The unicorns in the room had to use a detection spell to find me and by the time they had, I had mock assassinated pops!
“Nicely done, how soon can you have four more of those ready?”
What the hell is he talking about, my unit only has three others! “Four sir?” I tilted my head
“Doe and shall be joining you in your endeavour. We know you’re fully capable, but this is a matter of principles.”
Okay this ain’t happening. I can’t have Doe going on a mission with me, we’ll be butting head since our way of doing things is different and I need to get that Apple! “All due respect sir, but that Idea is foolhardy. I only have enough for me and my crew and Doe and I do things differently. I know how to handle a mission like this sir. Remember I was a damn Major before I came to Equestria! Adding Doe would merely put a wrench in the works, I respect her but she isn’t one of us. She’s not Monster Squad and won’t like the decisions we’re most likely going to have to make. In all honesty sir, She’d challenge my authority the whole damn way and jeopardize the mission and my unit. I”ve been the only survivor before with a unit I cared deeply for sir and it was due to a similar situation, I will not replay that episode!”
Everyone blanched at that. The battle of Tide’s End was on my dossier and I was the only survivor of that event. A captain didn’t agree with my actions and pulled rank to do it his way, In the end it cost the company (all but me) their lives. HIs actions brought us into a death trap. The man wanted glory I wanted to do it with stealth and minimal casualties. But we rarely get what we want. One hundred dragons entered that gorge and only one came out. Griffons were waiting for us from the clouds with their scents masked and had bombs (more like explosive molotovs) on their person. They took one from the harpies of the empire and hit our asses with a kamikaze! As I regenerated from the wounds I suffered, I noticed a whopping one didn’t commit. I flew at her like a bat out of hell in pure rage pinned her down to the cloud face down and ass up and gave her two choices. Rape or torture. Being the coward she was (I realise that she was being sensible now), she chose rape.
After a few round I started to feel how damn good a Griffon was, it was my first interspecies fuck and gott damn was it tight! At that point the two of us were having consensual fun. After that, I grabbed a scale and talon from each dragon (that wasn’t giblets) and flew back to base with Amalda, who would give the empire pivotal intel in exchange for a ladyship with land (after the war was done) and that she got to remain by my side until it was done. When she couldn’t give us intel, she gave us a griffon point of view. She became my strategist for the remainder which lasted no longer than a year of the war thanks to her.
Shaking off my quick memory, I noticed pops was thinking about it. “You’re right, son. Your unit will go as is.you'll be heading out in an hour, dismissed!”
“Sir” we all saluted and made our way to my lab for our gear. and prep for the flight to our DZ which is a few klicks away from Trottingham. Well, this is going to be fun!
After my tinkering, we had forty five minutes till final mission brief. I finished the five suits in fifteen minutes. Hell, I even managed tweak the gear to use less power and managed to drop the discharge by a full magical ampere! As far as our date with shining, I’d have Puzzle cover for her so Shining doesn’t connect the dots. Night Fury is a big girl, she can understand that this takes priority. Fun fact about the distance from canterlot to Trottingham by train it would take at least a week and a half and that's without stops. A normal flight would take about a day, so I’d have to hazard a guess. I’d be flying the team on my carrier.
Whilst I was formulating my plan, someone bumped into me. "Ah, sorry about that. I can be a little clumsy when I'm in a rush!" I could tell by the voice that is was Sunset. She seems a bit off. My eyes caught a view of the goods and she knew it. Sunset stood upright and her face was redder than her hair.
I better apologize before I get reprimanded. "Sorry Captain, I should have paid more attention to my surroundings. It won't happen again! " I threw in a Japanese bow for good measure. And she's totally laughing at me right now, isn't she?
"At ease, Sergeant. I'm a squad captain, not a Captain. My actual rank is Specialist. Celestia just likes calling me that." Wow, that's one hell of a misunderstanding.
There was another problem with this conversation. "Why the hell are you doing grunt work?" Sunset put her head down and to the side. What was she trying to get her mind off of? She’s not being bullied...is she? Diving into her emotional cocktail of grief sorrow and unwanted lust, I confirm my suspicions. She’s someone's plaything! Her pride must be stopping her from going to Celly. Well this might be blunt, but it has to said. "Sunset, who's abusing you, and don't lie to me."
Sunset froze in both terror and shame. "I'm waiting, my little pony!" Maybe that was too forceful. How about a different approach. "Sunset, I just want to help you. You don’t need to be afraid of me. The only one I'm gonna hurt is whoever's been emotionally beating and actuallyraping you!"
"Take a look in the mirror, hotshot." Why do I need to look in a mirror, Eris? She gave me an audible sigh that screamed 'just do it'. Craning my neck to the mirror (which the castle is full of). All of my blades were unsheathed and I was smoking and what's worse is she was now afraid of me. I need her to know I'm not the bogeyman here.
I took a breath to calm myself and sheathed my blades. As soon as I was calm I put my tail on her shoulder. "There are two ways this can go, they both involve Celestia and only one spares you your dignity. Just tell me who it is so I can shove my tail up their ass before I leave for my mission."
Her ears drooped. "I can't tell you!" She must be terrified of this guy if she doesn't think I have what it takes. "No seriously, I can't tell you. He's got this gag spell on me. I've tried telling the Princess twice already and both times it came out as gibberish." If she can't dispel it then it's gotta be some next level shit.
If she can't tell me then I'll guess. There’s no way any of the petty officers have the mojo to gag her like this. She’s in a special unit that take orders from... that's it! "What, tell me, tell me!" You'll find out in a minute. "How long has the Archmage been using you as his plaything and are there others?" Good, she’s smiling; that means I get to frikase the little shit. Time to write a letter
"Yo, Celly. The Archmage has been raping and belittling Sunset Shimmer and others under his command. This letter has a few memories attached thanks to my, well you know. By the time you get this I will have already beaten him to an inch of his life to force him to undo the gag spell so there will be witnesses. Oh and if he hasn't begged you to throw him in Tartarus, I will send him their the other way and enjoy it." I wrote that shit after I beat him senseless. Oh almost forgot! I shove my tail up his rectum and bump my tail and commenced tail raping him without any lubricant in front of the group that had been freed. The sick fuck actually came two minutes later. The other girls headed for the court with my papers in hoof *Burn* letter sent.
"Get used to being someone's bitch. Shimmer, help me take care this?" She started sucking my dick. "Oh shit yeah! As good as this is, I meant send him to Celly." She did that without stopping the attention my dick was getting.
"I've been forced to fuck that pig for months! Now show me what a real stallion can do." Since I flew shimmer and I here, I have about thirty five minutes to give her what she wants.
"We got ten minutes for fun then we gotta go for briefing. Yes you heard me right, you're one of mine now. Oh yeah, welcome to Echo."
Fifteen minutes later
"I thought you said ten minutes, sir." Great, she’s being a smartass...she's kinda cute when she laughs though.
"You're lucky you're cute or I might have to reprimand you." Sunset wiggled her eyebrows as we neared the briefing room. "Not that kind of punishment, dork!"
"Ahem" Shimmer and I were the first to get here. But that voice can only belong to one person, Celestia. "Thank you for little 'delivery', Storm. I had my suspicions he was up to something and based off your behavior, the two of you were up to a little something of your own. Sunset, I cannot rid you of your horrible experience. But I shall leave you in Storm Shadow's care in both meanings of that statement. Make each other happy and keep it professional when you're on assignment." We both gave a happy affirmative and I got to teaching Sunset her new role.
Twenty minutes later
We were all assembled for a final briefing about ten minutes prior to mission. Before us was the Colonel and Celestia. "Echo, your mission shall commence once this briefing is terminated. Sergeant Storm Shadow, the floor is yours."
As soon as I had the go ahead, I stood up. "Echo this is a time sensitive matter, as you are all aware. Normal means of travel would have us in Trottingham in anywhere between twenty four hours and a week. We cannot afford to waste time here. My plan is to have you travel in a subsonic carrier I had been working on and have confirmed its integrity. This method will have us on site within six hours. The carrier will land here in a remote area outside of the town. The carrier shall serve as a CIC to which our newest edition, Specialist Sunset Shimmer shall be running from now on. Medusa, you're sitting this one out. It's pretty cold up there around now."
The Colonel raised an eyebrow and Celestia had a confused look on. "Sergeant Doe will be filling in for you. I really can't have you hibernating on us. Doe, I'm trusting you to not undermine my authority. Please dont make me regret this decision. Shimmer, I've equipped the carrier with a control console for surveillance drones, which will be cloaked as well. Please keep in mind that the main goal is to terminate the situation with as little fatalities as possible. Echo, let's move out!"
As the crew left, Celly stopped me with a worried look on her face. "Please be careful Storm." She whispered as she hugged me. I gave her a smile and carried on to put my gear on and strap myself in.
"Smack her on the ass, you know you want to!" As tempting as that may seem I would be so grounded after this op was done. So no, I won't be doing that. "You're no fun sometimes!" Yeah, well I'm fun most of the time.
Medusa wasn’t happy about missing the action but she knew my decision was sound. She actually saw us off with a smile. "Kick this douchebag's ass something brutal!"
"You heard the lady Echo, Let's kick some ass!" Everyone yelled out an oorah to that. With the assistance of the launching catapult, we were airborne. Getting this thing airborne alone might be a bit of a bitch. But hey, one thing at a time. Ten minutes later, we arrive at the drop zone about a thirty minute trek away from town.
Shimmer deployed the drones that were recently equipped with an active camo mod. They seem to be working pretty well. "Okay Echo, here's your tutorial. Keep cloaked movement slow. The drones are small enough that they won't have this problem. But if you run, the cloaking field will fluctuate briefly. Another important fact you're cloaked, not invisible. Don't get too close to a target unless you can drop their asses quickly. The townsfolk are being mind controlled, so avoid lethal takedowns if possible. And lastly keep it quiet. Let's move"
I went with Doe and Landers and Soul were in the other group. Crows nest each with two guards were at our sides. Landers and I dropped them with arrows. We slowly advanced into the the town, keeping our eyes out for enemies and our ears open for any intel that Shimmer might feed us. A shaggy looking diamond dog was creeping on our location. Shit, he's sniffing us out.
"Echo, I've got multiple diamond dogs fixing on your position. I suggest making their neutralization your primary objective."
"Copy that, control. You heard her echo." With that we began our hunt for the dogs. The one that was near me looked right in my direction. Gotta slow my breathing and see if he's in his right mind. Doe had the same idea and was creeping up on him. Oh shit, he's got her scent. I got a glimpse of his eyes, which weren't glowing, he's a henchman. I clawed his throat out before he could get any closer to Doe and she moved the body into a nearby irrigation ditch. I dropped another dog that was in our path.
Cool thing about my being mostly dragon is I have superior senses to those dogs and just about anything I feel like hunting at the time. I let myself get surprised earlier, I don't think I want that happening again. It almost cost Doe her life. We turned the next corner and met up with Landers and Soul. "All clear Echo, nice going. Continue with primary objective. There should be a building a few meters northeast from your location. Cutting through the building should allow you easier access to the secure area." I'm sensing a but here. "There are Griffins there"
"Are their eyes glowing?"
"Yes, they also appear malnourished and weak. Infrared scans of the infrastructure indicates there's a lot of em. Caution is advised." We only have a few sleep canisters on us and we may need them later. But we can't exactly sneak past all those hungry griffins no matter how mindless they are.
"Alright Echo, switch to negotiator mode." The non lethal functions I had imbued into our weaponry was now active. Landers and my bows changed in format to deliver a mana arrow that would render targets unconscious for hours. Soul and Doe kept dart launchers at the ready. As we silently breached the building, we saw three groups. One was in the back and in a corner where we couldn’t get a shot off. They're currently pounding away at what I assume to be a female. It's too soon to initiate direct conflict and they're obviously not gonna kill her since they're horny, not hungry. The vic is on her own...for now. The second group was fighting over a piece of meat. The last one was. fighting for something higher up... oh ancestors, it’s a filly and she's still alive. This group was definitely hungry and would tear the girl to shreds. The team was in agreement, we ain’t watching this! We all fired on the fuckers without hesitation, taking down wave after wave of the hungry and horny griffins.
"Okay this is ridiculous! Flash bang!" That dazed the remaining griffins and allowed us to rescue the fillies. One of the fillies was a unicorn with pitch black fur and a violet mane. Poor thing has minor lacerations and bruises on her body but she fought them off. I also noticed that she was leaking semen from her fillyhood. Whoever was in charge used her till she couldn’t go on anymore then threw her in here. I guess it's the same for the other one. One problem at a time. I uncloaked and made my way to her.
"Easy honey I'm one of the good guys. Your mayor made it to Canterlot and my team was deployed to deal with this issue. What can you tell me about the current situation miss...." *hollow roar* One of the griffins got up and charged us. Doe dropped the dumbass and uncloaked, the others followed suit. "Soul, patch the other one up first. I'll burn that carcass." He did as I asked and got to doing doctor stuff with the other filly.
Gratitude was on her face. But is if for the rescue or that we did it non lethally? Could be the later since she's a filly. "My name is Black Lotus and I'm the mayor's daughter. I can tell you how it all happened."
According to Black Lotus, the one in possession of the apple is named Silver Rain. He was one of the main mine technicians to go missing in the cave in. He and his crew were thought dead. That thought had been confirmed false. Based off this information, it ain't hard to conclude that he found the apple during the time they were trapped.
Silver Rain must have compelled the dogs by using the apple. Considering the fact that these griffins are semi-mindless husks, he must’ve had some time to practice with it. "How long ago was the cave in, Lotus?" Doe asked as she moved to her. Lotus shrieked and cowered behind me.
She feels safe with me, nice. "Lotus, aisuru ko, I need you to answer that question."
She looks at me and smiles. "Watashi wa besuto o tsukushimasu. It was about two years ago and he did all this in two days. My friend Silver crow, the pegasus your dragon friend"
"Dragoon" I just had to Correct her on that one.
"Right, Silver and I didn't go down without a fight. We tried our best, but We're just two fillies! We didn’t stand a chance since most of the city's heavy hitters either fled, fell, or are currently under his control. We, as in Silver and my honor guard, the griffins you fell so easily. Attempted to take back the city. We failed, of course. To make a point Rain used the relic to compel all 12 of the guards rape and beat Silver and I in front of the townsman. And that was only six hours after my mother and Silver's father had escaped with their envoy to attain reinforcements. To make things worse, he had the griffins turned into what you saw." *Sniff*
I put my claw on her shoulder and let her cry in my chest. Silver walked over worse for wear than Black but she had been taken care of by Soul. The potion he gave her after stitching her up should help fix the rest. "Silver Crow and Silver Rain, any relation there?" Landers just had to address the elephant in the room!
"Miss Doberman, that fiend ain't no kin a mine! Just because two ponies have similar soundin names don't mean they got any relation!" She stomped her hoof to prove her point. I took the chance to get a good look at her. True to her name, she was pure silver in coloration. Her eyes were a deep blue and unlike lotus, she had her cutie mark. Which kinda reminded me of Led Zeppelin's take on Icarus... if they were a pony band. Not forget that she was cute as well.
"Control, we've located two VIPs. Please advise."
"Scans say your area's not clear yet. I suggest you clear the building before you carry on"
"Repeat that." I cannot be hearing this right.
"Area still has live targets, Sgt."
"Roger, will keep searching for bogies. Doe and Landers stay here and guard the girls. Soul with me, I'd like another fire breather with me just incase." I got no arguments from my crew at least. Lotus grabbed my tail and but those big purples to work. "I'll be right back. My friend and I just need to see if this place is safe." Lotus released my tail and got between Doe and Landers. Silver Crow grabbed pipe and added herself to the defensive formation as if it was second nature.
"What? I'm a cadet in the guard academy! I can be of use in a partial diamond formation around a VIP!"
I chuckled at her gusto. She must’ve made them work for it. "Iron's cool, but I think you'll fare better with Draconic steel." I handed her a katana I had forged and intended to give to Soul. "It's yours now, take good care it Draconic katanas don't rust and can cut through most things like a hot knife through butter." Soul looked a little disappointed. I gave him a pat on the back. "She needs it more than you do." He accepted my statement. Soul and I went into the final part of the building and were found that horrid smell near a small hole in the wall.
"Sergeant, the bogies are in front of you. They appear to be severely frightened. Take caution."
"Control, we're two dragoons this hole is big enough for a few onies at best. I think we'll be fine." Soul said his piece like the smartass he is. But he's got a point.
"If you're in your right mind come out this instant or we'll burn you alive. And just so you know, it will be a green and white flame. So expect soul crushing pain and motorary dysfunction leading on to an agonizingly slow death." They'd be dead in minutes but it would feel like hours. Way to work the crowd Soul. A group of four ponies (one unicorn and three earth ponies) came out of their hidey hole and followed us back to the main area.
"Control, I've got a few faces that need IDed."
"Copy that, Sergeant. Scanning IDs now. They appear to be some of the city's aristocrats. Give em the VIP treatment."
"Copy that, control."
"You cowards! I should take this blade and run it through your hearts." Silver cried in what tasted like righteous fury.
"Hold up pup, why would you do that. Did these guys do something wrong?" Landers asked with a puzzled look on her face. Actually, I'd like to hear that one myself.
The girls both had looks of pure rage on their faces. Eris you eating fucking popcorn?! "Less talking more Tom Clancy! I have a feeling this is going to be good!" Fine just mute the mic while you're eating that shit, ne? "Hai!"
"These maggots...no these amoeba pushed an innocent civilian into a flock of hungry behexed griffins, yeah that carcass you burned was a pony and a good one. She died so these fuckers could live! Then they put up a barrier and left us out of it and you know the rest." Shit, she’s telling the truth.
"Control, I rescind that statement. We found those other VIPs DEAD."
"Dead, sir?" I retold what I just heard for Shimmer. "Copy that Sergeant, give em what they deserve!"
"Girls, I don't think you want to see this." I said said as both my and Soul's mouths went ablaze.
"The fuck we don't, Midnight Ember was a saint to the community! We Owe it to her to watch these fuckers burn!" This cadet is hardcore, I want her! I'm gonna have to file the proper papers. Considering that Trottingham is a fucking city state they have a nice academy, but Canterlot's is the best. Chances of her saying yes after this are high.
As we drew closer, they began to tremble. "You're the good guys, you can't do this!" Wow, they're begging for their lives. Any mercy I would've shown them is now down the shitter.
All of Echo and the girls smiled toothy smiles. I think Soul and I were the scariest since our mouths were still smouldering. "Good guys, yes. Heroes, no. We're spec ops, pal. This mission don't exist and soon neither will you. Lotus restrain them, if you please." She did so and "Ready, Soul" he nodded and the dead men shook their heads I took a breath. "Fire" I did my best put a little soul in it.
"I love that song, Storm. Fire by the Canterlot Players, right?" I point a finger at Doe, she’s got taste! The screaming wouldn’t last long and it wouldn't raise any attention either, since that's what this place was intended for. By Rain's design at least. In a few minutes, they were dead and gone. And I put out the fire before there were any clear signs of said fire outside. A pile of smoke might of given us away.
"You girls have been through enough as it is but, I think we've breached protocol enough as is. You're gonna have to come with us." The drones "Control, expand the drones' cloaking field around these girls and guide them back to you slowly though. The cloaking field won't be as effective at fast speeds when you do that."
"Copy that, Sergeant."
Lotus and gave me a frightened look. "Have some faith in Silver and my coordinator, they won't let you down." She started crying a little.
"The girl really likes you Sarge, why don't you take her back. We can rest up here for a bit." I raised an eyebrow at Landers. "Not everyone here has a healing factor that kills fatigue, sir" She had a point and even Doe was looking fatigued. I shook my head and escorted the girls to the carrier and made it back without incident. The whole trek took about ten minutes. I'm just lucky there's no snow right now.
Walking back to the makeshift base camp, I noticed the team seemed in better spirits. "We ready to go, Echo?" Everyone took one last swig from their flasks and we were back on mission.
"So, Lotus has got the hots for you huh, didn't know you like em young."
Great I get to explain my aging process again! "Quit bitching and explain" That hurt Eris. "No, it didn't". Ok, you got me there. Well, here we go.
"Let me enlighten you on how dragons age mentally and physically. While I have the mental capacity of an adult of about twenty two years of age. That is not my age. By dragon standards I am technically a minor barely over eleven. The only reason I was in the army was dragoons mentally and physically age to a point at an accelerated rate then stop. While the age the mandatory enlist is fifteen (dragon) I was enlisted at fifteen (standard). Dragons age at a rate of 1 year for every two. Dragoons hyper age to eight within the first full (dragon) year and then age normally afterwards. After a dragon (or dragoon) reaches adulthood (25D), half aging ceases. As you all know, Dragons will live until they are forcibly terminated. Now can we get back to our regularly scheduled systematic slaughter of a group in possession of a 404, please." Irritation was oozing out of me. The crew could feel it and shut up.
We cut through the building as Shimmer suggested. We're surrounded by larger buildings the streets are paved and the air isn't as clean, we're in a urban area. "Good, you've made it downtown. I've managed to trace the 404's signal to an area further in. This area is going to be heavily guarded. Please be careful, guys." We all gave an "aww' at her concern and moved out.
"Control, route. Cloaked or not I'm not, I'd rather not be in the street."
"Won't have to look hard, I've found the 404 and its wielder! Take the alley to your left and walk it till you reach fourth and mane then you'll find the building where Rain appears to have set up shop. Be warned he's got heavy hitters under influence in there. The girls have given me some details on what a few of these warriors are capable of. Lethal takedowns may be necessary. You're not gonna like the building he took, Sir."
"Don't tell me...he took the academy?"
"Worse. He took the armory, sir." Chikushoume! Not only do we have to deal with glamoured elites, they happen to be well armed. I didn’t want to have to do it but I guess we really will have to kill some of the controlled. No, drop the thought. I'll deal with that when it's time. Rain's smarter than I thought. Not only did he take the armory but he has convoys of his own men (mostly dogs) patrolling the area for any possible threats. Hell, he's even got griffins doing skyward patrols. If we weren't so well cloaked, we'd or rather my team would be dead meat.
"Local knowledge, either one of you know of any tunnels near the barracks and armory area?" I'm just hoping for a long shot at this point. All other POEs are absolutely suicide.
"Local crow, here. There's a tunnel entrance about a half a klick southeast of your position. I'd use it to sneak out sometimes. Not many know about it, so you should be good." Nan seiko?!
"And how is that, was your mom an architect or something?"
"Actually sir, yes she is. She also flew away before Rain had control over the griffins or access to artillery. I'll give you directions as needed when you're down there and the code to make the path open into the buildings. It will only get you in near the academy but the buildings are interconnected via breezeways so you should have no trouble getting to Rain." If I hear one more coincidence, my mind might have to reboot. "I just remembered that there's a lot of concrete in the tunnels. Miss says we might not be able to talk to you so here's the code. Line up the kanji for Storm, Chaos, and Sun. In that order top to bottom." *kchuck errrrr*. We are experiencing technical difficulties, please bear with.
"Honey, I don't think now is the time for you to be crashing on me. Now get your obsidian ass back in the game or it's a cold war for the next two months!"
"...We need. Hey Sarge, we can't speak or read Japanese which characters do we need?" Doe asked
"Sorry guys. I went somewhere else for a second. Er, twenty minutes" I turned to Soul with a look of surprise. "You can't read the script of your homeland. Sekai de nani?"
Soul holds his claws up in defense. "Second generation Equestrian-Draconian, I speak it and practice a few of the customs for my grandparent's sake. You're the one from the motherland here. Think you could do your thing, sir?"
We've been uncloaked in these tunnels for about fifteen minutes, the cloaking systems should be fully recharged by now. "Cloak up Echo. We're going in."
