> Ponytropolis IV > by Pinkamena666 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Passing The Torch > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6 Months After Fluttershy's and Chrysalis' Wedding... It was around noon and a car was parked on the side of the road, the pink mare inside looking at the building on the other side of the road. She was holding a pair of binoculars and was scanning the building's windows. Cars were going by as normal and ponies walked the sidewalk. It seemed the city had finally recovered after the Apocalypse incident. Beside the pink mare was Bit, the green techie who once worked for Surprise. She was simply watching Pinkamena with an uncertain look on her face. Both mares had said nothing for the past few minutes and Bit was getting bored. "So..." she began. "What are we doing? You just sort of dragged me into the car..." "We're staking out the building," the pink mare replied, not taking her eyes off the building. "We got a tip that Dune was spotted in there... And I dragged you along so we can get to know each other." Pinks then lowered the binoculars and looked over at the green mare with a smile. "Since you're part of the team, and all." Bit smiled lightly before looking down at the floor. "I know it's been... 18 months since I... since we joined your team, but... I don't feel like a part of it..." The pink mare tilted her head before glancing out her window. "What do you mean?" She asked, looking at Bit once again. "I haven't really contributed..." Bit said with a sigh, before smiling. "But, I know how I can..." Pinks smiled lightly and nodded. "Mmm... And how exactly are you gonna contribute?" "By making Twilight something," the green mare replied, before her smile faded. "But... she doesn't get out much anymore, does she?" Pinkamena hesitated before looking out her window again. "No... She spends all her time in her room with Tech's laptop... monitoring the city..." she said, a hint of sadness in her voice. "She never got the time to get to know any of us, aside from Dashie, and... now, I feel like none of us will ever get to know her..." "Surprise really messed her up, huh?" Bit asked as she noticed the sadness in her voice. "I... I'm sorry..." "You don't need to be sorry..." "No, I do," Bit insisted. "I helped Surprise... If it wasn't for me... all the others would still be alive..." she said, her breathing becoming more ecstatic. "I-I'm surrounded by lives I helped ruin, I... I-I can't do this--" She was cut off when Pinks pulled her into a hug. "Shhh..." she cooed, rubbing her back. Bit closed her eyes and sniffled. "Surprise fucked us all... Twilight more than others... and she used you to do it... She used you... Just like she used our trust and turned it against us..." Bit nodded before opening her eyes, tapping Pinks on the shoulder. "I know her..." She said as Pinks broke the hug and looked out the window, spotting the white mare. "She was dating Dune..." The pink mare grabbed her binoculars and watched the white mare walk up to the building. After looking around a little, she entered. "Suspicious..." Pinks sang. "Are, uh... we gonna be the ones to take him in?" Asked Bit. Pinkamena shook her head and lowered the binoculars before pulling out her cell phone. "Twilight wanted me to call her when I found him." "Look, uh..." Bit began. "I know that since we're technically working with the police now... that we're supposed to arrest the not-as-dangerous criminals like Dune, but... you think Twilight will honor that? I mean, she's... not that stable anymore..." Pinks hesitated, her thumb hovering over the call button. "She'll do the right thing, I'm sure..." the mare said, hesitating to hit Call. Elementals Hotel... Midnight opened the door to her room and entered. She was wearing blue shorts and a white tank top. Looking towards the back of the room, near the door to the bedroom, she saw Twilight in her usual place. The purple mare was seated at a desk facing the wall, staring at a laptop. On the screen were several shots of the city. The mare didn't even look over at Midnight when she entered. The black mare let out a sigh and closed the door. "Have you had anything to eat?" Twilight's ears twitched before she shook her head. "No..." she replied in a monotone. Midnight began walking over to her, eyeing Azure, Collie, and Diamond who were sleeping naked together on the unfolded futon. "You know... the others may look up to you, but... you're scaring them. They haven't seen you in so long..." "What do you want me to do?!" Twilight yelled, standing up to face her. Collie, Azure, and Diamond all awoke with a startled jump. "I'm trying to keep the city safe! We can't afford to overlook a single thing or we risk another Surprise incident!" "Y-You can take a break," Midnight said with a small smile. "Come out and spend some time with the others... " "Right... So, I can miss something important?" Twi asked, before her cell rang. "I don't think so..." She then grabbed her cell from the desk and answered it. "Hello?" Her eyes slowly grew big before a smile appeared on her face. "I'll be there shortly." "Was it Pinks?" Asked the black mare, an upset look on her face. Twilight nodded and put her phone away. "Finally found the fucker..." she said with a dark tone before walking passed Midnight, heading towards the door. "Remember, Twilight..." the black mare said suddenly, getting the unicorn's attention. "Bring him in. Alive." Twilight let out a sigh and nodded. "Fine..." she growled, before grabbing her long leather coat from the coat hangar and leaving the room. Midnight closed her eyes and let out a sad sigh. "What's happened to you?" She asked, not actually expecting an answer. She then looked over at the three mares on the couch and smiled, walking towards them. "Sorry we woke you..." "I-Is mistress okay?" Asked Collie, watching the black mare walk over to her. Midnight nodded with a smile, kicking off her running shoes. She then climbed onto the futon and got to her knees. "She's just a little on edge... It seems she took it the hardest..." "Wh-What about Flora?" Asked Azure. "I mean, her brother..." Midnight eyed her before sighing. "Flora is taking this extremely hard, but... Twilight blames herself for not only Tech... but also for everyone else... including Aqua... and everyone who died when this hotel went up in flames..." The black mare reached out and gently placed her hand on Azure's cheek. "It's been hard on everyone else, too... Even for us... W-We lost two who were... c-close to us..." Midnight said as her voice began to crack and tears rolled down her cheek. Azure, Diamond, and Collie all leaned in and hugged her, the black mare hugging them back. "We miss them, too..." Diamond whimpered. Midnight broke the hug and sniffled, rubbing her eyes as she looked Diamond in the eyes. "Come here..." she said softly before gently pulling Diamond into a hug. Azure and Collie both rubbed the purple mare's back as they let the two hug it out. Fluttershy walked up to the counter in the dining hall as a blue mare with swirly pink hair approached it from the other side. "Hiya, dearie," the mare cooed soothingly. "What can I do for ya?" She asked with a warm smile. "Hey, Mrs. Cake," Shy greeted with a smile. "Twenty-three hay burgers, please." "Twenty-three?" Asked the blue mare. "For your Changelings?" She then asked with a smile. Fluttershy nodded with a blush. "Mm-hmm..." "How about a bulk discount for the newlywed?" Mrs. Cake asked as she went to go prepare the burgers. "I-It was six months ago, but... O-Okay..." Shy stammered as she watched the mare walk away. Once she had paid for her food, she took the bags towards the elevator and stumbled a little. She let out a soft "eep" when she felt as though she was about to drop everything. Though, before she could, a dark blue, unicorn mare quickly stepped up to her and put her hands under the bags to keep them up and steady them. "Oh... Thanks, Mystic," Shy said with a smile. The unicorn nodded and smiled back. "Need some help?" "Yes, please," Fluttershy replied, before Mystic took half of the load. The two then entered the elevator and waited for it to reach the fourth floor. "So, you... really have Changelings in your room?" Mystic asked, breaking the momentary silence. The pegasus nodded and let out a soft coo. "Twenty-one, to be exact... and I'm married to one..." "Right... Sorry, I missed the wedding..." Mystic replied, sounding apologetic. Fluttershy looked at her and smiled. "It's okay... Wedding still happened, right?" The unicorn let out a chuckle and nodded. "Yeah... Congratulations, by the way." "Thanks. I must admit that taking care of twenty Changelings is... tiring," Shy said as the elevator bell dinged. "I'll bet..." The unicorn replied with a chuckle as the doors opened. "Don't they feed off love?" The pink-haired mare blushed and hesitated before leaving the elevator. "Yes..." she said simply before making her way down the hall, towards her suite. She then eyed the unicorn with a smile. "Would you like to meet them?" Mystic blushed and let out a nervous chuckle. "Ha ha... Maybe another time..." Fluttershy nodded as they approached her door. "Maybe..." she sang, making Mystic blush even more. Pinkamena was leaning back in her seat as she saw Twilight's sleek, black car speeding towards them. "Here she comes..." the pink mare said with a sigh before opening her door and stepping out. Bit followed as the two watched the car skid to a stop in front of them. The engine soon turned off before the driver's side door opened. When Twilight stepped out, the two saw that she was dressed in her dark purple top, skin-tight purple pants, black shoes, and long leather jacket. On her face she wore black shades. Pinks expression turned into a somewhat sad one, which usually happened every time she saw what Twilight has become. "Where is he?" Asked Twilight plainly. Pinkamena eyed Bit before looking at Twilight again, pointing at the building across the street. "In there." "What do we know?" Asked the purple mare, turning to face the building as she eyed it over. "It's a shitty apartment building," Pinks explained, crossing her arms. "Low rent. Crappy rooms." "A-And, the white mare we saw go in there is named Daisy," Bit added. "She was going out with Dune..." "And if she works and lives in a nice hotel..." Twilight started as a smirk grew on her face. "why would she be here?" She then began making her way towards the small hotel. Daisy was seated in a chair in the small room, watching Dune. The stallion was working on a gun at his desk, taking it apart to clean it. "Why won't you... l-let me go?" Daisy asked with a sniffle. "How much longer do you... th-think you can keep this up?" "As long as I need to," the brown stallion replied before setting his gun down and walking over to her. "And I won't let you go... because I like you," he said as he leaned in and kissed her neck. The mare whimpered and looked away. "Y-You're a murderer..." "I only helped..." he cooed, his left hand resting on her right breast. "Surprise did most of it..." "Most?" Daisy asked as she closed her eyes and blushed. Dune chuckled before standing upright. "Enough talking," he said darkly, stating to undo his pants. "More suck--" He was cut off when the door was kicked open, revealing an angry-looking purple mare. Dune quickly grabbed Daisy and picked her up, holding her in front of him. "Twilight..." the stallion cooed. "You found me." "Release her," the unicorn growled, aiming her gun at him. Dune smirked and grabbed Daisy by the back of the neck. "As you wish." He then shoved Daisy towards Twilight, who simply stopped her in her magic. During all this, Dune was able run to the window, open it, and climb out. Letting out a growl, Twilight gently set the white mare down and rushed towards the window, seeing Dune escaping down the fie escape. Climbing out herself, she grabbed the side and climbed over, hanging by one hand. Letting go, she let herself fall two stories before hitting the ground with a grunt. She landed just in time to see Dune drop from the fire escape ladder. Holding up her gun, she gave him a smirk. "End of the line, Dune," she hissed. "Not bad..." the stallion said somewhat mockingly, holding up his hands. "Consider yourself lucky I was cleaning my gun..." "I don't need luck to take out a piece of shit like you..." Twilight growled. "Oh? And how did you find me?" Twilight narrowed her eyes and took a step forward. "You would've made a mistake eventually..." "Perhaps..." Dune said as she slowly got to his knees. "Well, come on... Take me in..." he said as Pinkamena and Bit came around the corner. "I can't..." she said as she started to pull the trigger ever so slightly. "Twilight!" Pinks yelled. "Remember, you can't--" BANG! The brown stallion's body fell as the other two mares stared in shock. Twilight eyed them both before holstering her gun in her jacket. "What?" Asked the purple mare, walking passed them. "He pulled on me..." Pinkamena and Bit both eyed each other before looking at the body. Police Station... "She did WHAT?!" Spitfire yelled, slamming her hands on her desk. She was wearing a police uniform, minus the hat. Pinkamena rubbed the back of her head as she eyed Bit, the two sitting in chairs in front of Spitfire's desk. "She... shot him," the pink mare repeated. "In the head." The yellow pegasus sighed and sat down in her chair. "Look..." she said, somewhat forcefully, like she was going to regret what she was about to admit. "Your group has saved this city three times thus far and we all owe you our lives... If it wasn't for the... Elementals... we'd be in much worse shape than we are now... But, we have a new system in place now." "I understand that," Pinks said suddenly, wanting to get that fact out. "Do you?" Spitfire asked just as suddenly, leaning back in her chair. "Because it doesn't look that way. The arrangement was your group deals with the bigger threats... and we deal with the smaller ones. Dune wasn't some power-crazy Changeling or a company creating monsters... or even some bitch who came so fucking close to taking over the city... He's just one stallion." Pinkamena looked away briefly before looking at Spitfire again. "Twilight's been through a lot... Killing Dune was probably just to tie up loose ends... since he was partly responsible for what Surprise did. Not to mention he killed two of our friends... It's probably the last time." "It had better be," the pegasus replied before getting up. "We have ignored a lot of questionable things your group has done... like befriending that Changeling, the wolf, and the succubus... No more. It's time to play by the rules so we can avoid chaos. Do I make myself perfectly clear?" Pinks sighed in annoyance and stood up. "Yeah..." she replied as Bit stood up with her. Spitfire eyed the green mare with a look of warning. "You two are dismissed..." The pink mare gave her a nod before gently taking Bit's arms. "Come on..." she said, leading the mare away. As they left the room, the pink mare looked over her shoulder at the yellow pegasus. "Congrats on the promotion, by the way," she said before turning and leaving. Spitfire gave a light smile before sitting back down. "Oh, what's happening to this city?" Elementals' Hotel... Fluttershy lay on the bed on her back, letting out a sigh as a Changeling Drone laid atop her. Smiling, Shy rubbed the Drone's back as the Changeling kissed her neck. Chrysalis watched them for a moment before looking over at Nala, who was sitting in a chair in the corner. Letting out a sigh, she walked over to her. As she got closer, Nala eyed her before looking at the ground, a look of shame on her face. "What's wrong?" Asked the queen, kneeling down and placing her hand on Nala's knee. The Elite looked away and closed her eyes. "I... I just... I wish we could go back to the way it was before... When it was just you, me, and the hive..." She then quickly looked at the queen, eyes full of tears. "I-I know that's selfish b-because you're so happy now, but... I-I can't help it..." "Why do you feel that way?" Chrysalis asked with a light smile. "Talk to me." Nala nodded and sniffled. "W-Well, uh... ever since you met her... you've been spending less and less time with... me..." The queen let out a sigh and leaned in, gently pulling her into a hug. "I'm sorry, Nala... I didn't realize..." She gently nuzzled the Changeling before pulling away once more. "I was just so happy..." she continued with a smile. "But, I promise I'll spend more time with you, okay? I want you to be as happy as I am." Nala wiped tears from her eyes and nodded, smiling a little. "Alright, my queen..." Chrysalis then leaned in and kissed her on the forehead before standing up. "Care to join us on the bed?" The Elite eyed her before looking over at Fluttershy and the Drone. "Maybe you could get to know my wife..." The Elite looked up at her again and smiled. "Okay..." The Docks... Night had fallen and most were asleep, apart from a few... including a grey stallion wearing a brown jacket and jeans and drinking from a bottle. Letting out a loud burp, he threw the bottle aside. Wiping his mouth with his sleeve, he glanced over at the docks and saw a figure standing there, looking out at the ocean. A grin appearing on his face, he pulled out a switchblade and made his way over to the figure. As he stepped onto the dock, the wood made a creaking noise as the figure looked back at him. "Look, buddy..." the stallion slurred. "All I want is you wallet. No one has to get hurt..." The figure said nothing as he got closer. "Are you deaf? I said hand over your--" Before he could finish speaking, the figure whipped around and grabbed his wrist, squeezing hard. The stallion let out a yell of pain as he was forced to his knees. "What do you say, girls?" The figure asked as two more figures walked passed him from behind. "Is he a keeper?" The other two then stood beside her, one on the left and one on the right. The one on the left pulled her hood off and scoffed. "No way... I don't want that loser worshiping my body..." The one on the right lowered her hood as well. "Yeah. What she said." The figure in the middle pulled her hood off and placed a hand on the stallion's head, grinning. "Come here..." she cooed gently, the stallion slowly getting to his feet. As he got closer, he saw that the figure was a bright olive mare. A jewel around her neck began to glow as she got in his face. She then began to hum a sweet tune while stroking his cheek with the back of her hand. The stallion stared into her eyes, his own going wide as he couldn't look away. He slowly raised the switchblade to his neck as the mare took a step to the side. After she did, he walked to the end of the dock before driving the blade into his neck. Letting out a gurgle, he soon toppled into the water with a splash. "I hope the rest of the ponies in this city aren't like him..." the purple one said as she sat on the edge of the dock and pushed the body away with her foot. "Relax, Aria," the olive mare cooed. "I'm sure we'll get what we want here. I can just feel the energy..." "Adagio?" The blue one asked, walking up to her. "Surprise knew what he was talkin' 'bout... right?" "Oh, sweet Sonata," Adagio cooed, placing a hand on the blue mare's cheek. "If you two would take a moment, instead of asking me questions, you'd simply feel the energy for yourselves. There's so much magic here... and I intend to use this magic to make this entire world do our bidding..." "What about Surprise's plan?" Asked Aria as she stood up and walked over to them, crossing her arms. "I'm making some slight changes but the outcome will remain somewhat the same..." Adagio cooed with a smile. "Now, come, girls... It's time..." "Ooo, I can't wait!" Sonata squealed happily. Aria rolled her eyes as she began making her way towards the main road. Sonata skipped behind her as Adagio took one more look out at the water. "Hmm..." she simply said, before following the other two. > Donuts > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Elementals' Hotel... Twilight stared at the laptop screen, watching the camera feeds when she noticed the one for the docks was offline. "What the fuck?" She asked, eyes narrowing. As she stared at it, she heard the bedroom door open followed by the voice of her girlfriend. "You still up?" Asked Midnight. "Come to bed..." The unicorn eyed her before looking at the laptop again. "I... can't..." she said, her hand tightening on the mouse. Midnight hesitated before walking over to her. "You're so tense... Come on... Lay with me and relax..." Twilight eyed her again but didn't get up. "I'm in the middle of something..." she said, looking at the offline camera feed. The black mare watched her some more before getting to her knees. "I know you have a lot on your mind, but you need sleep... Otherwise, you won't be able to function when the time comes to take action..." Twilight hesitated before sighing in defeat. "You're right..." she admitted, before turning in her chair to face Midnight. "Let's go to bed..." "That's the spirit..." the mare cooed before gripping Twilight's pants and slowly pulling them down. "Now, come and let our pets and I help you relax..." she cooed, planting a kiss on Twi's cock. The purple mare smiled lightly before nodding. "Alright... You win... Again..." Midnight giggled and stood up. "I knew I would..." Once she had completely undressed, Twilight left the laptop and went to join Midnight and their pets in the bedroom. As they entered, the three mares looked up at them. They had been napping in a separate bed that Twilight and Midnight had gotten for them. When she entered, Twilight gave them a smile before walking over to them. "Sorry, I... haven't been spending much time with you..." she said as she sat down on their bed. "I just... I have to keep an eye on the city and make sure it stays safe..." "We understand, mistress," Azure cooed, giving her a smile of her own. Twilight smiled back and then looked at Diamond, her smile soon fading. Reaching a hand out, she placed it on the mare's shoulder. "How are you, uh..." Twi started to ask. Diamond hesitated before sighing. "I... I'm, uh..." she began before a tear fell. "N-Not so good..." Twilight let out a soft gasp before scooting up to her and gently pulling her into a hug. "Oh, I'm so sorry I haven't been around for you, Diamond... I'll try and divide up my time better so I can be with you girls more..." "And to... socialize with the others, right?" Asked Midnight, watching them. Twilight's expression faded into a blank stare before looking over at the black mare. "I am not... pushing my luck that far..." she said sternly. Midnight stared into her eyes, seeing how serious she was, before heading to the master bed and getting under the covers. Twilight watched her before looking at the girls. "Get some sleep... You can help me relax tomorrow..." Twi cooed, kissing each one on the lips before getting up and heading to the master bed as well. As she got in, Midnight said nothing. Once she got settled, the unicorn laid on her side so she was facing her girlfriend. "M... Midnight?" She asked softly, gently rubbing the mare's side. The black mare stirred slightly before looking over her shoulder at her. Seeing Twilight's softer expression, she rolled over to face her. "I'm sorry... but... I need to know that you... understand why I'm doing what I'm doing..." Midnight looked into her eyes before sighing. "I understand, Twilight... It's just... I don't like it... You used to be fun and cute... Now, you're... different..." "I got shot in the head, M..." Twi said as she rubbed the scar on her forehead. "The doctor said I wouldn't be able to control my emotions..." Midnight nodded and sniffled. "I-I know..." she said as she rubbed Twilight's cheek. "I just wish that hadn't happened... I mean, I thought I lost you forever... A-And, then when you came back I was so happy... only you weren't you... I guess, in a way... you never came back..." Twilight let out a soft gasp before laying on her back, staring up at the ceiling as a tear fell from her eye. The mare beside her shakily covered her own mouth before hugging her. "Twi-Twi, I... I-I didn't mean..." she started, sniffling. "I'm sorry..." Rubbing her eyes, Twilight hugged back, nuzzling the mare's neck. "I'll find a way to fix this... Hopefully, one day I'll come back to you..." Midnight nuzzled back as the two embraced each other. "When you do... I'll be here... waiting..." The next morning... Twilight opened the door to her hotel room and entered. "I'm home, girls..." she called out, getting no answer. Flicking on the light, she let out a gasp and dropped to her knees. Her three pets lay dead on the floor by the couch, covered in blood while Surprise had Midnight by the neck. "Welcome home, Twilight..." Surprise cooed before crushing the black mare's throat and throwing her to the floor. Pulling out a gun, she shot the mare in the head repeatedly. When the gun was empty, she looked at the purple mare with an evil grin. "Looks like you were too late to save them..." "No..." Twilight whimpered, holding her head. Just then, Surprise tackled her to the floor and pinned her arms down. "It's all your fault Twilight... If only you had paid more attention instead of making new friends, they'd still be alive..." "No..." Twi repeated, tears running down her face. "NOOO!!!" Twilight awoke with a yell and sat up, panting hard before rubbing her eyes. Looking around, she noticed the room was empty. Midnight and the others were gone. Holding her forehead, she groaned before pulling the sheets off her and getting out of bed. Stumbling a little, she made her way to the bedroom door and opened it. As she did, she saw Midnight sitting nude on the couch with Diamond and Azure seated beside her and licking her nipples. Collie was knelt between her legs, licking her pussy. They all looked over the unicorn when they heard the bedroom door open. Twilight hesitated before looking at the laptop. A trickle of sweat ran down her cheek before she let out a sigh. "I..." she began softly. "I guess I can... wake up first... before monitoring the city..." she said with a light smile as she headed over to the group. Midnight and the girls gave her a smile as the unicorn approached them. Once at the couch, Twilight gently took Diamond's hips and scooted her over. She then kissed the mare on the lips. Letting out a coo, Diamond kissed back before they broke the kiss. Twilight then sat between her and Midnight before the black mare straddled her lap, facing her. The two looked into each other's eyes as Collie gently took Twilight's cock and stroked it, getting it hard. Letting out a moan, Twi looked passed Midnight at the white mare, watching her stimulate her penis. When it was hard, Collie pushed it up so the shaft hit Midnight's ass. Smirking, the black mare lifted her hips before bringing them down on the purple meat pole. Both mares let out a moan as Collie leaned in, licking the purple ball sack. Azure and Diamond resorted to gently rubbing the mares' bodies, feeling every crevice and curve of their form. As Midnight began to move up and down, Twilight slowly looked over at the laptop. Noticing this, Midnight gently placed her hand on the mare's cheek, making her look her in the eyes again before kissing her. Twilight's breathing increased as though she was trying not to look at the laptop again. The black mare let out a moan as she deepened the kiss with her girlfriend. As they made out, Azure and Diamond both leaned in and gently licked at the sides of Twilight's mouth. Feeling this, Twilight broke the kiss with Midnight and turned to Azure. The two touched tongues together before kissing deeply, Azure letting out cute moans. After about a minute, Twilight broke the kiss with her and turned to Diamond, opening her mouth. The purple pet leaned in and slid her tongue into Twilight's mouth, resting it on her mistress'. Twilight then closed her mouth and kissed the mare, closing her eyes and moaning. As the minutes rolled by, Twilight forgot about the laptop and her paranoia. She had gone back to make out with Midnight before there was a knock at the door. Letting out a groan, Twilight broke the kiss with the black mare and looked at the door. "Who is it?!" She yelled. "It's... Rainbow Dash!" The voice called. The unicorn let out a deep sigh before looking Midnight in the eyes. "Fuck..." The black mare felt her pussy trembling as she started to rock her hips again. Twilight gave her a smile before looking at the door. "Come in!" She called. Midnight blushed but made no attempt to cover up. Soon, the door opened as Dash stepped in, wearing a black tank top with a white skull on it, along with white shorts. She instantly stopped when she saw the four engaged in sexual activities. "I don't mean to interrupt, but..." Rainbow said as she closed the door. "But, a new company is opening today... Spitfire thinks we should investigate..." Twilight scoffed as she gripped Midnight's ass, thrusting into her. "And, why is that our problem?" She asked, watching the black mare's breasts bounce. Dash hesitated before sighing. "Well... she's afraid of another New Horizons..." Twilight thrusted hard Midnight as the mare on top moaned out loudly, arching her back. Smiling and panting, she collapsed on the lavender mare, who looked over at the cyan mare. "Fine..." she sighed, looking at Diamond. "You girls take care of Midnight while I go out..." The purple mare nodded and gently rolled Midnight off the unicorn so she sat beside her. Azure then walked over and sat on Midnight's other side. Collie licked a little more at the Twilight's crotch before standing up and moving over to be with the others. Twilight then stood up and stretched, eyeing Dash before heading to the bedroom to get dressed. Sylk, Inc.... Rainbow Dash and Twilight sat on a couch in front of the office door. There was an awkward silence when Dash looked over at the purple mare. Twilight eyed her and let out a sigh. "What?" She asked. "Nothing..." Dash replied with a hint of sadness. "I just... I miss you..." Twilight looked away before the office door opened, revealing a lavender mare with long cyan hair that covered part of one eye. She wore a purple gown with black high heels. She eyed both mares with her sky blue eyes. "You must be Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash," she said in a kind voice. "I am Tresemme. Come on in." Dash stood up and followed her in before Twilight did the same. "Is there a particular reason why the police would send two gang members to my company? We aren't even open yet..." she said as she sat down behind her desk in her comfy-looking office chair. The room was large and the entire back walls were one giant window, looking out over the city. The floors were also shiny and looked like you could eat off them. There were also two seats in front of the desk, which Twilight and Rainbow Dash sat in. "We're working with the police now," Dash explained. "They thought it was a way to keep the peace. While they handle small-time criminals... we handle the bigger ones." "Then, I ask again..." Tresemme said with a confused look. "Why are you here?" Dash hesitated before letting out a sigh. "We've had a problem in the past with a new company setting up shop in the city... so we are tasked with checking out each new company... Like yours." "Oh, my..." the lavender mare said, placing a hand on her chest. "That sounds like a lot of work." "Eh... Whatever keeps this city safe, right?" Dash asked, before eyeing Twilight. The unicorn had her arms folded and was staring at the mare. Tresemme gave her a smile, but it didn't help. "Not much of a talker?" Asked the mare, keeping her smile. Twilight's eyes narrowed before she finally spoke. "Look, Tressy... I have much more important things to do than sit here and come up up with a nice and overly drawn out way tell you to not try any shit." Dash's eyes went wide as Tresemme's smile faded slightly. "So, if you are planning on trying some shit... I'm only gonna say this once..." She then stood up and placed her hand on the desk. "Don't fucking try it... I've lost too much for some fancy bitch to come in here and--" "Alright, Twilight..." Dash interrupted, placing a hand on the mare's arm. "That's en--" She was cut off when Twilight pulled her arm away and glared at her. "I'll be in the car..." she huffed before turning and storming out the door. Rainbow let out a sigh before turning to look at Tresemme. "Sorry about that... She's... been through a lot... Lost a few close to her... She just wants to keep this city safe so it doesn't happen again..." The company manager nodded and stood up, walking to the window behind her. "Rest assured, I have no ulterior motive... I simply wish to spread my brand. I'm already quite popular in Manehattan and Trottingham," she said with a light giggle. Remembering what Twilight and Dash had said, she cleared her throat and turned to face the cyan pegasus. "You may tell her I promise to be a good girl," she said as she sat back down. Rainbow nodded hesitantly and stood up. "Thanks," she said plainly before heading towards the door. "Oh, Miss Dash?" Tresemme said suddenly. Rainbow stopped and looked over at her. "Yes, ma'am?" "If you two are feeling stressed... I know of someone who can help relax you... She's really good. I've been to her a couple times. I could... give you her information if you're interested..." Dash thought for a moment, thinking about the state Twilight's in. "Sure. What's her name?" Tresemme smiled and opened a desk drawer, pulling out a piece of paper and writing something down on it. "Her name's Treehugger... And be warned... She is a nudist..." Dash let out a chuckle and took the paper. "I've seen my fair share..." she said, backing up towards the door. "Thanks again." Tresemme smiled and watched her leave. "Anytime..." she cooed. Dash climbed into the driver's seat and closed her door, hesitating before looking at Twilight, who was in the passenger's seat. "Twilight--" "I know what you're gonna say, so save it," the unicorn interrupted as she looked out the passenger window. "Actually, I was... gonna show you this," Dash said as she held out the piece of paper. Twilight looked over at her before looking down at the paper, taking it. "What's this?" "Someone to help you relax..." Dash said with a smile. "And she's a nudist so you'll love her." The unicorn let out an annoyed sigh and handed the paper back to Dash. "Fine, Dashie... Let's go..." she muttered, sounding like she gave up on arguing. The cyan mare nodded and put the car in drive, heading towards the address on the paper. As they drove, they passed by a few shops when one mare caught Twilight's eye. "Stop the car!" She yelled. Dash jumped a little, startled by the outburst before pulling over and stopping. "What is it?" Without saying a word, the unicorn opened her door and let. A brown mare with long black hair entered a bakery, looking like a frightened cat as she looked all around. She was wearing a dirty white t-shirt and ripped jeans. The green stallion behind the counter noticed her and smiled. "Can I help you, miss?" He asked as he watched her. The mare smiled lightly as she looked at him. "N-No, thanks... Just... here for the smell..." "I've seen you in here before..." the stallion said as he opened the case behind the counter. "Would you like a muffin?" He asked, pulling one out and setting it on the counter. "On the house..." The mare smiled and started to approach the counter before the front door opened. "You..." Twilight said, glaring at the mare. The brown mare jumped, startled, before backing away. "O-Oh, no..." Twilight quickly darted over to her before grabbing her neck. "Hello... Ginger..." she growled. The shop owner went wide-eyed before taking the muffin off the counter. Ginger, meanwhile, let out chokes and gasps as she stared the unicorn in the eyes. As she did, Rainbow Dash ran in and gasped. "Twilight!" The cyan mare exclaimed. "What are you doing?" The unicorn didn't take her eyes off the brown mare. "Just taking out the trash..." Dash tilted her head in confusion before letting out another gasp. "Ginger? Surprise's girlfriend?" Twilight nodded and forced the mare to her knees, making her yelp. The other ponies in the shop all stared at what was happening. Twi then pulled out her gun and aimed it at the mare. "Twilight!" Dash yelled, running over and putting her hand in front of the gun. "Don't shoot her!" "Why not?!" The unicorn yelled back. "She's just as guilty, if not more, for not trying to stop Surprise!" "She loved her! What would you do for someone you loved?!" Dash then took a breath and sighed. "Well, I guess that's obvious, actually... Isn't it?" She asked as she lowered her hand. "You just kill everyone..." She then shook her head and began heading back outside. "You're not Twilight... You're Surprise..." The purple mare let out a soft gasp and looked back as Dash left, before looking down at Ginger again. Her emotions were tearing her apart. A large part of her wanted to shoot this mare, but a smaller part was refusing. As a tear rolled down her cheek, she let out a grunt and lowered her gun with a huff. "Damn..." she muttered, holstering her gun and leaving. Ginger let out a few whimpered before looking around, noticing Twilight had left. She then looked at the shop owner, who shook his head. "You get out of my shop," he said with a stern look. "We don't want trouble here." The brown mare's eyes fell on the muffins in the cases before she sniffled. "O-Okay..." she wheezed, rubbing her neck and heading for the door. Twilight kicked the tire of her car in anger. "Fuck!" Dash was leaning against the hood, watching her. "I'm proud of you, Twilight." The unicorn eyed her with an angry look. "Yeah? Well, I'm not... fucking... Surprise..." Rainbow shook her head and sighed. "Twilight, I didn't..." she started, before the door to the shop opened. Looking over, both mares saw Ginger step out, stopping suddenly when she saw them. Letting out another whimper and wiping tears from her eyes, she quickly turned and began walking away. It was only now that Dash noticed the mare's dirty clothes. "Is she..." the pegasus began before quickly running after her. "Hey, wait!" Ginger immediately stopped and covered her face with her arms, a pathetic squeak escaping her lips. "No, no... I'm not gonna hurt you..." Dash said as she placed a hand on Ginger's shoulder. The mare jumped a little before turning to face her. "Th-Then... what do you want?" "Are you..." the cyan mare began, before changing the question. "Do you have a place to... live?" Ginger hesitated before gently rubbing her arm. "Mmm... N-No..." she answered shakily. The pegasus nodded before pulling out her phone. "Stay there... I'm making a call..." The brown mare watched her dial a number before she noticed Twilight approaching them. Her heartbeat quickened as she wanted to run, but was also curious as to what Dash was doing. When she was close enough, Twilight quickly thrust her fist towards Ginger's face, making her cover her eyes and yell... but the hit never connected. "Here," Twilight suddenly said, making Ginger slowly lower her hands. In Twilight's hand was a brown paper bag. The brown mare eyed it before slowly taking it. Twilight then crossed her arms and said nothing. Hesitating out of nervousness, Ginger opened the bag and looked inside, seeing a chocolate donut, a raspberry-filled donut, and a chocolate-chip muffin. "Um..." Ginger started softly, looking up at the mare. "I..." "Save it," Twi interrupted. "Okay..." the brown mare muttered as she took out the chocolate donut and took a bite, her eyes suddenly going wide as if she hadn't eaten anything in a while. Dash came over with a smile, patting Twilight on the shoulder before looking at Ginger. "I have a friend that... will take you in. You'd get a bed and food but you'd have to help her out around her boutique." Ginger smiled widely and swallowed what was in her mouth. "Thank you!" She yelled happily as she hugged the pegasus. Rainbow let out a chuckle and patted her back. "Come on the car with us and we'll take you to her, kay?" Ginger nodded before Dash looked at Twilight. "How'd you get the donuts? I thought you wouldn't be allowed back in..." Twilight entered the donut shop and stepped up to the counter. "Chocolate, Raspberry, and a Chocolate-chip Muffin." The shop owner shook his head. "I know you saved us in the past, but I don't want--" The unicorn reached into her pocket and slammed down some cash on the counter. "Chocolate... Raspberry... and a Chocolate-chip Muffin..." "Y-Yes, ma'am..." the stallion muttered in fright before going to get the food. Twi smirked before she eyed Dash. "I just asked for them..." "Uh-huh..." Rainbow said, smiling back before leading Ginger back to the car. Twilight took a moment to calm down before following. Mug Shots (The Local Bar)... Applejack sat down at a bar with a sigh, raising her hand to signal the bartender to come over. "Give me whatever's good," she said with a smile. The stallion nodded and went to prepare the drink before a lavender mare sat down beside her. She had two-toned purple hair with a turquoise stripe in it. She eyed the Elemental with her purple eyes and smiled. "Say, are you one of the Elementals I've heard so much about?" The mare asked. AJ let out a chuckle and looked over at her. "Yeah... Do I, uh... know ya?" "Oh, no..." the mare cooed with a smile, drawing a circle on the counter. "Not yet... But your Twilight does..." Applejack was about to say something when the bartender came out of the back room. The orange mare looked over at him before looking back at the lavender mare... who wasn't there anymore. "The hell?" Asked Applejack, looking around. "Something wrong, miss?" The bartender asked as he set the drink down. "Yeah, uh..." AJ said as she looked at him. "Did you see where that mare went? The one sitting beside me?" "Not sure what you mean, ma'am. You were alone when I came out." AJ rubbed her forehead before letting out a sigh. "Huh... Weird..." > Happy Place > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carousel Boutique... Rainbow Dash pulled the car up to a rather fancy-looking, magenta circular building with yellow frills over the purple doorway. Dash and Ginger left the car but Twilight didn't move. Noticing this, Rainbow leaned in, placing her hand on the roof of the car. "You coming, Twilight?" She asked with a light frown. The unicorn shook her head. "No... I'll wait here..." she replied, not even looking at the mare. Dash nodded before closing the door. "Come on," she said, looking at Ginger before walking towards the building. The brown mare nodded and eyed Twilight before following the pegasus. "I'm sorry for all this..." she said softly. Rainbow eyed her as she opened the door, giving the mare a light smile. "Don't blame yourself..." she said as she motioned for the mare to head inside, which she did. As she entered, she looked around and went wide-eyed at the clothing racks around the large circular room. Each rack had dresses of different styles and colors. As Ginger took a few more steps in, she noticed a white mare with violet hair leaving the back room with a smile. She was wearing a white shirt which covered her C-cup breasts. It hung on the side and revealed her left shoulder. She also wore a black skirt that went to her knees along with black stockings and red high heels. "Rainbow Dash," she said, approaching them. "We don't see each other nearly as much as I'd like." The cyan mare walked up to her before they hugged. "It's good to see you, too, Rares..." When the two parted, the unicorn looked at the brown mare. "So, you must be Ginger..." The earth pony mare smiled nervously and rubbed her arm, still holding her bag of donuts. Rarity looked her over and smiled lightly. "You certainly don't look like a mare that deserves to be out on the streets... Ready to work for me? I have always felt that having some help around here would ease my stress..." Ginger nodded quickly, smiling widely. "Yes, ma'am!" Rarity gave her a smile and put her arm around her. "Stairs are in the back room. Bedrooms and bathroom are on the top floor. Why don't you go take a quick shower?" The brown mare nodded again before taking off. "Thank you!" She called back. Rarity watched her leave before looking at Rainbow Dash. "Good thing you got her to me when you did. She was... how should I put this nicely?" "Stinky?" Asked Dash with a light smile. "She has been homeless for a while... The only reason she didn't smell worse was probably because she bathed in the ocean?" Rarity looked towards the back room with a smile. "I'm just happy that she's happy." "Yeah, thanks for this," Dash said as she crossed her arms. "I don't think Twilight would've allowed her to stay at the hotel... after what happened..." Rarity nodded. "Generosity is my middle name," she cooed. "I probably should go make sure she doesn't use all the hot water..." "And Twilight and I have someone to see..." "Twilight's... here?" Rarity asked with a light smile. "AJ told me she barely gets out anymore..." The cyan mare let out a chuckle as she rubbed the back of her head. "I, uh... seem to be the only one who can... talk her into anything..." "That's a strong bond, Dashie..." Rarity cooed with a wink. "Heh, she's not mine, Rares..." Dash said with a blush. "She has a girlfriend... I have one, too..." Rarity suddenly looked confused. "But, she listens to you?" Rainbow looked away briefly and nodded. "It's a long story..." The white unicorn hesitated before smiling. "I'll go check on my guest... You go do your thing with Twilight, darling..." "You got it, Rarity," Rainbow said as she turned, heading back towards the door. "See ya." "Have fun," the white mare called as the pegasus left. She then hesitated before turning and heading towards the back room. Bit & Bridal... Ruby lay on her back on the ceiling, watching Jade sweep the floor. The green mare stopped and looked up at her. "You know, you could help..." Jade said with a plain expression. "Nah, I think I'll let you do it," the succubus cooed with a smirk. "Any idea when Flog and Sterling will get back?" Jade sighed and shook her head. "I don't--" Their attention was drawn to the front door as it opened, three mares stepping inside. "Can we help you?" Asked Jade. Adagio smiled at her before eyeing the succubus on the ceiling. "Mmm... We're new in town and just thought we'd look around..." she cooed, looking around the shop. "Do you have... bondage outfits?" She asked, walking over to racks of sexy clothing. Jade continued to stare at the other two, who stared back at her... though the blue one was just sort of smiling. She then turned and walked over to Adagio. "Yes..." the wolf mare said as she crossed her arms cautiously. "We have lots of bondage outfits and gear." "Mmm..." the orange mare cooed. "Good... Show me..." Jade eyed the mare up and down before walking over to rack a few racks away. "These are our full-body suits. You can pieces of the bondage gear on the wall over there," she said, pointing. "Stuff like boots, gloves, blindfolds, gags..." "Well, it sounds like you have everything here..." she cooed as she walked over to the shelf, picking up a ball gag. "How much?" "For the basic items like that gag... Fifty bucks... 100 for the boots... It varies..." Adagio set the ball gag down and smiled. "Hmm... Seems a little much for me..." She cooed before turning to face the mare. "I have a... proposition for you..." Jade simply raised her eyebrow as if to ask, "Really?" The siren then began to hum soothingly as she started to circle the mare. Jade let out a soft gasp as she felt her mind being taken over, no longer able to move her body. "Sis?" Ruby asked, noticing Jade had stopped moving. Adagio looked over at her and smiled. "Sister..." She then looked at the other two sirens, giving them a nod. The two smiled before vocalizing softly, raising and lowering in pitch to create a soothing tune. Ruby clenched her eyes shut and held her head, letting out a yell as she fell from the ceiling with a thud. She continued to groan before her eyes shot open. Adagio smirked before walking over to the front door, flicking a light switch and shutting off the Open sign. "Have them rip each other's throats out. Make it look like they did it to each other." Aria gave a smirk and nodded as the succubus got up and the wolf turned to face her. "And let them know what's happening... Let their last memory be that of killing her own sister..." As the two began to near each other, tears fell from their eyes, both clearly knowing what they were being forced to do. Sonata looked over at the counter, noticing a newspaper. Walking over to it, she picked it up and looked it over. "Uh... Adagio?" She called. "You may wanna look at this..." The orange siren let out a deep, annoyed sigh before turning to face her. Crossing her arms, she made her way around Jade and Ruby and over to Sonata. "What... is it?" She asked through clenched teeth. The blue siren held up the paper. "Look." Adagio rolled her eyes and snatched it from her, looking over the larger article. As she read, her eyes widened before looking at the two sisters, about to reach out and tear out each other's throat. "Wait!" She called, both mares stopping. She then walked over to them before they both exhaled sharply and dropped to their knees, regaining control of their mind. "Is this you?" She asked, tossing the paper down at them. "Jade the wolf and Ruby the succubus?" The two looked up at her, panting heavily as they, for some reason, felt exhausted. Adagio smirked and knelt down. "Seems we captured us a dog and a slut, girls." Aria smirked and Sonata clapped her hands. "Ooo, a puppy!" The blue siren sang. Jade growled and got to her knees. "What have you... done to us?" "You're under our spell," Adagio cooed, reaching out and rubbing the green mare's head. "I'm just letting you speak and think as you normally would..." She then stood up and smirked. "But, I still control your body..." she said with a devious smile, gripping her pants and pulling them down. As they fell, her pointy serpent cock came into view as Jade felt herself lean forward. "Wh-What the--" Jade gasped, before not being able to close her mouth. Adagio gently took the back of her head and pushed her cock passed her lips. "Mmm... Good pet..." She then looked at the other two sirens. "You two can break in the slut." Aria and Sonata both chuckled as they pulled their top off. Once naked, the approached the red mare, who stared at them as they came closer. "Ah, shit..." Ruby muttered. "I really wish I was a real demon..." Treehugger's... Rainbow Dash parked the car near a small condo and shut off the engine. Glancing over at Twilight, she took the keys out of the ignition and opened her door. "Come on, Twi," she said before getting out. The unicorn stared ahead in thought before blinking a few times, coming back to reality. Opening her door, she climbed out as well and looked the building over. "This is the place?" She asked, closing her door. Dash looked at the piece of paper and nodded, stepping up to the front door and ringing the doorbell. Twilight stepped up behind her, looking around as if she were on the look out for signs of trouble. After a minute or so, the door opened. There stood a green mare with short, peach-colored dreadlocks and an orange bandanna. All she had on was a thin white robe. "Who are you two?" She asked with a light smile. "I'm Rainbow Dash and this is Twilight," the pegasus said as she stepped aside. "Uh... T... Tresemme said you could help her relax," she explained, forgetting the mare's name for a moment. Treehugger nodded and looked at the unicorn. "Come on in and I'll teach you how to calm your mind... and find your happy place..." Twi rolled her eyes and sighed, walking up to her. "Alright..." Dash patted her back and leaned in. "Have fun. I'll take the car and come back in... say... an hour?" "An hour is just fine, dude..." the green mare cooed before entering her condo. The purple mare turned to face the cyan one. "I hope this works..." she said through gritted teeth. Rainbow Dash let out a chuckle and crossed her arms. "I'm sure it will..." Twilight stared into her eyes before turning and entering the building. As she closed the door, Treehugger undid her robe and pulled it off, exposing her nicely-shaped ass and back. Twilight stopped moving for a moment before remembering what Tresemme said about her being a nudist. Continuing to follow her, the two entered a small living room as the green mare threw her robe onto the couch. Turning to face the unicorn, she knelt down on a rug. "Kneel down and relax..." she said as Twilight looked over her D-cups. The purple mare nodded and slowly got to her knees in front of the nude mare. "Now, the first step... is to think about nothing but blackness... Or whiteness... It doesn't really matter. Now, close your eyes... and think..." Twi hesitated before slowly closing her eyes and exhaling. When she tried to think of white, all she saw was Surprise. Letting out a grunt, she held her forehead and tied to think of blackness. The more she thought, the more the image of Surprise turned into Midnight. The unicorn's heartbeat slowed back down to normal as a light smile appeared on her face. Treehugger scooted closer and leaned in close to her ear. "Keep thinking..." she cooed, seeing the mare smile. She then gave her cheek a light kiss. "Just keep thinking until the weight on your shoulders feel lifted and that knot in your stomach disappears..." Her hand found it's way to Twilight's belly as she gently rubbed. Hospital... Trixie entered Dawn's room at the hospital to see May still seated there. "Have you been home yet?" The blue mare asked as she walked over to her, a concerned look on her face. May eyed her and shook her head. "She didn't leave my side when I was out... I won't leave hers..." "But, it's been way longer than--" "I know how long it's been!" May shouted as tears filled her eyes. Trixie jumped a little in surprise, before quickly moving over to her and giving her a hug. "We're all here for you..." May nodded and hugged back. "I just... I miss her so much..." The blue mare nodded and nuzzled her neck, closing her eyes. "You may not want to hear this, but... it could take a while... You can't stay here forever..." "I know..." May whimpered. "But, I... I don't wanna..." "Leave her, I know..." Trixie cooed. "But, like I said, it..." She suddenly stopped talking before looking down at the mare, letting out a gasp. "I'll get the nurse," she sad before running out of the room. May quickly looked down at Dawn to see her head moving slightly as her fingers twitched. "Sis?!" She gasped, leaning in close to her face. "S-Sis?" Cache For Cash... Rainbow pulled up to Cache For Cash and parked the car. As she got out, she spotted a red mare with dark red hair down to her butt standing near the entrance. She wore a fancy black dress that only had the right shoulder strap, leaving her left shoulder bare. On her feet she wore black high heels, standing in front of a window and looking in at all the guns. "Pathetic..." she mumbled. Dash hesitated before walking over to the front door. As she did, the red mare eyed her. "Rainbow Dash..." The cyan mare stopped suddenly and looked over at her. "Uh... Yes? Do I know you?" "No..." the mare cooed. "But, I know your group. From the paper." Dash gave a single nod. "Oh... Okay... You a... fan?" "Of you?" The mare asked, slowly shaking her head. "No... But that wolf caught my eye..." "Who, Jade?" Dash asked. "Yeah, the city was pretty shocked at first when they heard that a werewolf lived here... But they soon caught on she was on our side and now they... accept her..." "Hmm..." The red mare said with a light smile, crossing her arms under C-cups, making them seem bigger as they squished together. "So, she's a nice wolf?" "Pretty nice, yeah..." the pegasus replied, hand still on the door handle. "And, she's being treated well?" Dash tilted her head in confusion. "Uh... Like family..." "Good..." The red mare said before turning and walking away. "Nice meeting you, Rainbow Dash." "N-Nice to meet you, too, uh..." The red mare stopped and hesitated, before looking back with a smile. "Scarlett..." she cooed, before continuing to walk away. "Scarlett..." Dash muttered, before entering the building. Treehugger's... Twilight exhaled slowly as she started to feel more relaxed. "Oh, this feels nice..." she cooed as Treehugger gently rubbed her shoulders. "Feel relaxed?" Asked the green mare as she leaned in and kissed her neck. Twilight nodded and slowly opened her eyes. "Strangely... I do..." Treehugger smiled and moved in front of Twilight before laying down on her back. "Then, let's not stop, man... Let's keep this up..." The purple mare nodded and pulled her top off, tossing it aside. After removing her bra, she slipped out of her pants as Treehugger watched her. Once nude, Treehugger's eyes fell on her cock. "Whoa, dude..." she said with a smile. "Is that thing real?" Twi nodded with a smile before climbing over to her. "You bet it is..." The green mare smiled and spread her arms out at her sides. "Looks big..." Twilight laid herself atop the mare as she smiled at her. "Mmm... Enough talking... More relaxing..." she cooed, kissing the mare's neck and making her moan softly. Elementals' Hotel... Flora stood on the roof of the hotel, looking out at the city with her arms crossed in front of her chest. She was wearing a short black skirt and a black long-sleeved shirt. Letting out a sigh, she looked down at the street. Thoughts of jumping began to flood her mind as she held her forehead with a groan. "You okay?" Asked Sunset, walking up behind her. The orange mare was wearing jeans and a white shirt, accompanied by a leather jacket and boots. Flora looked back at her and said nothing before looking out at the city again. Sunset gave a sad frown, seeing that the green mare was still grieving. "I don't mean to be disrespectful, but... it's been a year..." she said, walking up the mare and putting her hand on her shoulder. "If you need to talk, we're all here for you..." Flora gave a small scoff and turned, walking passed Sunset towards the rooftop door. "Yeah... Everyone but Twilight..." She opened the door and looked back at Sunset. "It's the least she could do, right?" She asked with an angry expression, before stepping through the doorway. The orange mare hung her head slightly before looking out at the city, knowing she was right. Times were tough for everyone and Twilight shutting herself away wasn't helping the matter. Treehugger's... Rainbow Dash slowly opened the door to Treehugger's condo and slipped in closing and locking the door behind her. "I'm back..." she announced as she walked towards the living room. "Are we relaxed, Twilight?" She asked, before stopping and staring. Treehugger was on her stomach with Twilight above her, the unicorn gently thrusting her cock into the green mare's ass. Twi eyed the cyan mare as she entered the room. "I feel pretty relaxed..." she cooed as Treehugger simply let her do her thing, not caring that Rainbow Dash was standing there, watching. Rainbow gave a smirk. "Well, I'm ready to go when you are... Finish up... whatever you're doing... and meet me outside. We can go back to the hotel..." she said before turning and leaving. Twilight watched her go before thinking bout Midnight, her thrusting slowing to a stop before looking down at the green mare. Leaning in, she gave her a kiss on the neck. "I have to go back... Be with Midnight..." "Mmm... Someone important to you?" Treehugger asked as she waved her butt slowly. "My girlfriend," Twi replied with a smile, pulling out of the mare and sitting beside her. "I've been... neglecting her lately..." Twilight said with a sigh as she closed her eyes. "I've been... absent... Too focused on keeping this city safe..." She then held her head and let out a groan. "But, I can't control my emotions some times... This fucking bullet wound..." A tear began to form in her eye before she felt a hand on her shoulder. Looking back, she saw the green mare smiling at her. "She's your happy place, man..." Treehugger said as she looked Twilight in the eyes. "Don't let that go..." The unicorn nodded before hugging the mare tightly. "Thank you..." Treehugger chuckled and patted her back. "No problem, dude." Rainbow was waiting by the car, thinking about that mare she met. She was ripped from her thoughts when the front door opened and Twilight stepped out. "I see you got your clothes back on," the cyan mare said with a chuckle. Twi smirked and walked over to the driver's side door. "Get in. I'm driving." "Feeling better?" Rainbow asked as she got in the passenger's seat. The purple mare climbed in as well and let out a happy sigh. "I found what makes me happy... Truly happy..." "Oh, yeah," the multi-color-haired mare said with a smile. "What's that?" "Midnight..." As they drove back towards the hotel, Dash hesitated in thought before looking over at Twilight. "Um... So... I saw this mare earlier..." "So?" Asked Twilight. "There are many mares around." "No..." Rainbow said, rubbing her forehead as she thought back to the meeting. "She... She seemed interested in Jade... Asked me if she was being treated well. Then she just walked off. Said her name was... Scarlett..." Twilight eyed her before looking back at the road. "Scarlett... Why would she care so much about Jade?" Elementals' Hotel... Twilight quickly entered her room and stopped, seeing Midnight and the girls watching TV on the couch. When Midnight looked over at her, Twilight quickly made her way over to them. "Something... wrong?" Asked the black mare before Twilight leaned in and kissed her. She went wide-eyed briefly before kissing back. After what felt like forever, the two parted. "What was that?" "Nothing, I just..." Twilight started. "I went to see someone and... I found out what my happy place is..." "Your happy place?" Asked Midnight, smiling. "Treehugger?" "You know her?" Midnight chuckled and nodded. "I've been to her before... And what is your happy place, exactly?" The unicorn leaned in again and kissed her cheek. "You..." The black mare smiled before there was a knock at the door. Letting out a groan, Twilight's smiled faded as she stood upright. Clearing her throat, she made her way over to the door and opened it. "What?" She asked, an annoyed tone in her voice. AJ stood there, rubbing the back of her head. "Um... Sorry to bother ya, but... there's something I thought you should know..." Twilight raised an eyebrow, wondering what could be so important as to interrupt her time with Midnight. "Uh-huh..." "I saw a mare today at the bar... Purple... like you... Said you knew her." "So?" "I dunno... There seemed to be something... off about her... When I asked her if I knew her... she said... not yet... And she was tracing a circle on the table with her finger..." Twilight let out a light gasp, eyes going wide. "Well, shit..." > Glimmer Of The Past > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight went into her bedroom and knelt by the bed. Reaching underneath, she pulled out a travel suitcase and opened it up, revealing some extra clothes and a book. Taking the book, she stood and left the bedroom, making her way back to Midnight and Applejack. "I think I know who you saw..." she said as she flipped open the book. "What's that?" Midnight asked as she moved beside her, looking at the pages. "My School's yearbook..." Twi explained, still flipping the pages. "I keep all of them... But, I like this one the most..." She suddenly tapped a picture triumphantly. "Ah-ha! Her... Is she the one you saw?" She asked, turning the book so Applejack could see. "Y-Yeah..." the mare confirmed. "She was older, obviously, but... yeah, that looks like her... Who is she?" "Starlight Glimmer..." Twi said before turning the book so she could see it. "I knew her quite well... She was always fascinated with time..." She then turned and walked over towards the couch, where the other three mares were seated. "There was a loss in the family... and she wished she could go back and fix it... Hence, why she traces a circle in a counter-clockwise motion..." AJ nodded. "So, is she... dangerous?" "I don't know..." the unicorn sighed, closing the book. "She said that you didn't know her yet?" "That's what she said, alright," AJ confirmed. Nodding, Twilight tossed the book onto the bed. "I have to find her... I just hope she speaks to me..." "Well, she should, right?" Asked Midnight, walking over to her. "I mean... she was your friend..." Twilight shook her head. "I never said we were friends..." Bit & Bridal... Flog and Sterling pulled up to Bit & Bridal, parking their van. Flog climbed out of the driver's seat and Sterling left the passenger's seat. After closing their doors, the approached the front door. Flog suddenly stopped and held out a hand to stop the dragon. "What is it?" She asked, confused. "The Open sign..." Flog said, pulling out his gun. "It's off..." Holding up a hand to tell her to wait, he cautiously approached the front door. Slowly reaching out, he grabbed the handle and swung the door open. Quickly stepping inside, he aimed his gun around. He soon lowered his gun when all he saw was Jade sweeping the floor and Ruby sitting on the ceiling, watching her. "Oh, master," Jade said with a smile. "You're home." "Yes..." the stallion said with an unsure tone. "Is everything alright?" "Shouldn't we be asking you that?" Ruby asked. Flog eyed her and slowly holstered his gun. "Why's the light off?" He asked. Jade tilted her head. "The... light?" "The Open sign..." the stallion said, raising an eyebrow. "Shouldn't you know that by now?" The green mare simply shrugged before Ruby dropped down from the ceiling. "Is Sterling with you?" Flog nodded as he pushed the door open. "Come on in!" He called. After a couple seconds, the dragon entered the building and smiled. "Hey... Is... everything okay?" Jade and Ruby both smiled at them but said nothing. Soon, a voice began humming from the back room. Flog quickly pulled out his gun and aimed it towards the doorway but soon felt his mind cloud over. Letting out a groan, he held his forehead, as did Sterling. Both dropped to their knees, hands over their ears as they tried to block out the sound. The Park... Twilight pulled up to the sidewalk and parked, turning off the engine and getting out. Nothing seemed out of place at the park. Looking around, she left her car and walked over onto the grass. It seemed peaceful here and would be a nice place to relax... if she weren't so on edge. Sitting down on one of the many benches, she scanned the area. Remembering that Starlight used to like going to parks, she was hoping that she would be able to find her here. Though, she also knew that it was quite the long shot since there were many variables that would result in her either being here or not being here. Looking to her right, she saw a group of birds "This is such a stupid idea..." She groaned, crossing her arms. "Wouldn't be your stupidest idea ever..." A voice cooed from her right. Looking over, Twilight saw a purple mare sitting on the end of the bench and throwing bread crumbs to the birds. Had she always been there? If so, why didn't Twilight see her? "S... Starlight?" Asked Twilight, narrowing her eyes as she kept her eyes on the mare. The purple mare threw her last bit of crumbs before turning to face the other purple mare. "Hey, Twilight... Long time no see." She then noticed Twilight's face and tilted her head. "Something wrong?" "What are you doing here?" Asked Twilight bluntly. "Doing here?" Asked Starlight, looking confused. "Am I not allowed to visit the city? i was actually thinking of moving here and--" "Cut the shit," the other purple mare interrupted. "I've been through too much to let some crazy mare cause even more shit--" "Crazy?" Asked Starlight with a light chuckle. "Are you talking about the time stuff I was into as a filly? Don't worry. I'm over that. Turns out it's harder to turn back than you think..." "You don't say?" Asked Twi, raising an eyebrow. "One of the girls in my gang said that you told her that we didn't know you... yet... And that you were drawing a circle on the table with your finger..." Starlight smiled. "They don't know me yet because I was planning on visiting you... I would've met your friends then... As for the circle... I suppose old habits die hard--" "They're not my friends," Twi said darkly. "What's the point of having friends if they die?" "No friends? Sounds lonely." "Once I'm sure this city's safe, then, and only then, will I accept them as friends and get to know them... But, for now... I think I'll focus on keeping this city safe." Starlight nodded and looked at the birds. "Hmm... Oh, that reminds me..." she said, looking at Twilight again. "How'd, uh... How'd it feel shooting Surprise?" She asked, getting an angry and accusing look from Twilight. "I heard it on the news. Relax..." "It felt great..." Twi answered with a dark tone in her voice. "Especially when I shatter her limbs first..." Starlight let out a soft chuckle. "Hmm... The news report failed to mention that..." With that, she got up and stretched. "Mmm... You're smart not to let your guard down, Twilight," she said as she started to walk away towards the road. "Who knows what's out there?" Twilight got up from the bench as she started to follow. "Do you know something?!" She yelled, before walking faster. Starlight looked back at her with a smile before crossing the road. Twilight began to run after her as a van sped by, briefly blocking her view of the mare. When it passed, the mare was gone. Slowing to a stop, she stepped backwards onto the sidewalk as a car sped by, almost hitting her. "Fuck..." she growled, looking around. "Bitch..." Bit & Bridal... Adagio walked to the front door of Bit & Bridal, opening the door and looking out. "Let's go, girls... Nothing will get done by us just hanging out here..." Aria and Sonata walked up behind her as the three left, Sonata closing the door behind them. "About time," Aria said as she stretched her arms out at her sides. "I was getting bored in there." "So, what's the plan?" Asked Sonata as she caught up with them. The three sirens arrived at the main road, Adagio looking both ways down the sidewalk. "The plan is..." Adagio began, but trailed off as her pendant flashed red. "Did you feel that?" She asked with a smirk, turning to the other two. "Do you know what that is?" Aria crossed her arms and sighed. "Remember, your senses are better than ours... We feel nothing right now..." Adagio let out an annoyed sigh. "Fine... Look... I just picked up a strong source of negative energy..." The other two looked at each other before looking back at Adagio. "Where is it?" Asked Sonata. The yellow girl began walking down the sidewalk. "This way..." Elementals' Hotel... Pinkamena stood outside the hotel, looking at the top right corner that was still under repairs. Arms crossed, her eyes scanned the area under construction before turning and walking away. As she did, Gilda left the hotel and stretched her arms, before seeing the pink mare. "Hey, Pinks," she said with a smile, walking towards her. "Where ya headed?" Pinkamena stopped and looked over her shoulder at her. "I... I don't know... Somewhere..." Gilda could see something was wrong and smiled at her. "I'll come, too--" "No," the pink mare said suddenly. "No, I... I just wanna be alone right now..." she said before walking away. The griffin watched her leave as she took a step back. "What the hell?" "There you are," Rainbow cooed, coming up behind her and hugging her. "What are you doing out here? Going for a walk without me?" Gilda let out a chuckle and turned around to face her. "Just getting some fresh air..." she replied, before looking over where Pinks was headed. "Also... something seems wrong with Pinkie... She seems... down..." "Well, after what we went through, can you blame her?" Asked Dash. Gilda nodded and sighed. "I guess you're right... I just wish she'd at least talk to someone..." "Give her time," Rainbow cooed. "Now, come on, softy... Let's go for a walk." "Not soft," Gilda chuckled, lightly punching Dash in the arm. Fluttershy was knelt beside the bathtub wearing nothing as she finished cleaning one of the drones. "There," she cooed. "All clean." As she pulled her hand away, the drone climbed out of the tub as Shy handed it a towel. The drone took it and wrapped it around her body as Fluttershy tested the water, making sure it was still hot. "Alright," she said, looking at the doorway. "Who's ne..." She cut herself off when she saw the Elite standing there. "Nala... Hey..." The Elite gave her a smile and stepped in. "I figured... we could get to know each other a little more... since you're married to my queen now..." The pegasus smiled and nodded, patting the edge of the tub. "Come on in..." Nala smiled back as the drone threw the towel in the hamper and left, giving the Elite a pat on the shoulder on it's way out. Nala then walked over to the tub and climbed in before slowly sitting down. Once she was settled, Fluttershy grabbed the body wash and squirted a glob into her hand. "You know..." Shy began, beginning to rub the Elite's stomach. "I was never trying to take your queen away from you..." Nala let out a soft gasp and looked at the mare. "How'd you--" "Chrysalis told me," Flutters said as she started to rub the Elite's back with the body wash. "O-Oh..." Nala said softly, looking down at the water. "Right..." "It's okay, Nala..." Fluttershy said with a light smile as she leaned in with a blush. "Um... I just... I really love her... And, I'm sorry I've been taking up most of her time... But, now that we're officially together... we can spend more time with you..." she said, moving her hand to Nala's right breast. The Elite blushed from the sudden attention the mare was giving her as she looked her in the eyes. "S-Sounds good... And... I'm sorry for getting upset about it... You two love each other and it wasn't fair for me to act that way..." "It's understandable..." Nala smiled lightly before Fluttershy climbed into the tub. "Wh-What are you doing?" Asked the Changeling as the pegasus climbed atop her. "I just... wanna get to know you better..." Flutters replied with a heavy blush. "Oh, my..." she said with a shy smile. "This is still so weird for me... I've been told for years that couples have to be loyal to each other and... doing anything with anyone else is bad..." Nala smiled a little more before placing a hand on Fluttershy's shoulder. "I guess they've never met Changelings before," she cooed. "To the queen, It's actually considered an honor for others to show love for a drone... or an Elite..." "It's true," Chrysalis said with a smile, leaning against the dooframe. Shy let out a soft gasp and looked over. "Oh... Chrysalis... You startled me..." "I know it's against your nature to cheat on the one you love, Flutters," Chrysalis began as she walked towards the tub before kneeling down. "but, you're not cheating on me if it's with Nala or the drones. Like she said... You'd be doing me a favor by showing them love." "I know," Shy cooed shyly. "I'll get used to all this eventually..." she said before looking at Nala. "I bet this is how Twi..." she started to say before stopping. "Something wrong?" Asked Chrysalis, gently stoking Shy's hair. The yellow pegasus eyed her. "N-No... Just... I'm trying not to think about... T-Twilight..." The Changeling queen leaned in a little and nuzzled her cheek. "Why not?" "Now, for the lightning round... EVERYONE YOU KILLED IN THAT HOTEL!!!" Twilight shouted, before going wild and whacking each of Surprise's four limbs randomly at random locations. Fluttershy covered her ears, whimpering softly and clenching her eyes shut tightly, not wanting to hear the brutality of what was going on. After about a minute, Twilight stopped. Looking down upon the mare's mangled limbs, she let out a deep sigh and pulled out her gun. Surprise was panting shallowly before weakly eyeing Twilight. "Nice... balls..." Twilight raised her gun and aimed it at the mare's head. "Stop talking..." she said, firing three times. Hesitating, she slowly lowered the gun and looked at the three bullet holes in the mare's head. Blood trickled out as the mare lay there limply. Not wanting a repeat of what happened with her, Twilight knelt down before feeling Surprise's neck. No pulse. Standing back up, she looked over at Chrysalis and Fluttershy, seeing the pegasus cowering. Taking a step towards her, Fluttershy inched away with a whimper. Twi stopped, realizing that the mare was afraid of her now. "She's... scary..." Shy whimpered. Nala looked up at the pegasus, hesitating before sitting up and kissing her on the lips. The mare let out a soft gasp, lips trembling before closing her eyes and kissing back, leaning forward against the Elite. Nala let out a soft moan before Fluttershy pulled away slightly, blushing heavily as she felt their cocks rubbing together. Looking down at them, she blushed even more before looking back up at Nala. "I don't... think I cleaned that yet... did I?" She asked with a light smile. The Changeling slowly shook her head. "I don't think you did..." The pegasus smiled and slid lower on the Changeling's body before wrapping her large breasts around the meat pole. "Good..." Shy cooed, rubbing the Elite's cock with her mounds. "I wouldn't want to get body wash gel in my mouth..." Nala stared at Fluttershy, looking like she was both shocked and turned on by the mare's sudden lewd behavior. She then watched Flutters lower her head to the rod and stick out her tongue. Tilting her head back, Nala let out a moan as she felt the pegasus' tongue run up her shaft to the head. "She's pretty good, isn't she?" Chrysalis asked as she gently rubbed Nala's head. "A-Amazing..." The Elite moaned, feeling her cock's head disappear in the mare's mouth. Fluttershy looked up at Nala as she slowly began bobbing her head, swirling her tongue around the shaft. The more and more she sucked on the Changeling's rod, the more she got into it. Soon, she sat up and positioned her own cock before pushing her way inside. Nala moaned out and closed her eyes before Flutters grabbed the Changeling's dick. "Damn, sweetie," Chrysalis cooed with a chuckle, rubbing Fluttershy's back. "You're getting really into it..." The pegasus moaned out and began thrusting while jerking Nala's dick. "I-I can't help it... As soon as I get started, I... I can't stop..." Chrysalis smiled and climbed in. "Then, I'll join in..." Both Nala and Fluttershy gasped as they were all shifted so Nala had her back against the front end of the tub with Shy in the middle of the tub. Chrysalis had positioned herself behind Shy and wrapped her arms around her, slowly pushing her way into the mare's ass. "Ooo... There?" Flutters moaned, panting heavily. "Of course..." the queen cooed. "I love how tight it is..." The mare moaned as every time Chrysalis thrusted, she thrusted into Nala. Shy soon felt like she was bouncing back and forth between them. The Elite's moans picked up as the sound of wet slapping filled the bathroom... and got the attention of the drones. Soon, the doorway was filled with the watching eyes of Chrysalis' children, all gently holding onto their cocks. Shy eyed them and chuckled softly. "W-Wait till we're done, please..." she moaned. "Not... enough room..." Chrysalis looked over at them and smirked. "Mmm... I have a much better idea..." Twilight returned to her car and slammed the door shut. "Fuck," she grunted angrily, gripping the steering wheel as she thought about how she let Starlight get away. Soon, her phone rang. Letting it ring a couple times, she finally reached into her pocket and pulled it out, answering it. "Hello?" She asked, not sounding very enthusiastic. "Twilight?" Asked Trixie, sounding rather excited. "It's Trixie." "That's great," Twi sighed with an uncaring tone. "What do you want?" "It's Dawn," the mare replied happily. "She's awake! I just... thought you should know." Twilight let out a gasp and leaned back in her seat. "Well... That's, uh... That's great... Thanks for the update..." "Of course. See ya..." "Bye," Twilight replied, before hanging up. Looking out her window, she watched the cars drive by as she thought about Dawn. Seemed like the city was getting back to normal. And, so far, the only ones that concerned her was Starlight and possibly Scarlett. Tresemme just seemed annoying to her. Turning her engine on, she pulled away from the park and headed down the road. She head her phone vibrate and picked it up to look at it. It was a text from Rainbow Dash. It read: U find her? Letting out a sigh, Twilight looked up just as she ran a red light before hitting an orange mare. Letting out a gasp, she slammed on the brakes as she stopped in the middle of the intersection. Panting heavily, she looked in her rear view mirror to see the mare laying in the road. "Oh, fuck..." she gasped, her heart beating a mile a minute. > Provoked > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Elementals' Hotel... Fluttershy lay exhausted on Nala, both them and Chrysalis panting heavily and covered in the Drones' cum, who were all standing by the tub and lightly stroking their dicks. "You're right..." Fluttershy cooed. "That was a much better idea..." Chrysalis smiled and kissed the back of her neck. "Told ya..." Nala lay panting beneath Fluttershy with a happy look on her face. Chrysalis looked at her with a smile, slowly pulling out of the pegasus and standing up. One of the drones took her hand when she offered it and helped her step out of the tub. Flutters then rolled onto her side beside Nala in the cum-filled tub. "Glad I... got to know you more..." Shy said with a smile as she ran her hand over the changeling's stomach. Nala smiled back and leaned in, kissing her on the lips. Fluttershy kissed her back as their tongues rubbed against each other, both moaning softly. "Come," Chrysalis said before grabbing a towel and walking out of the bathroom with a smirk. "Let's let them enjoy themselves..." The drones obeyed and left the Elite with their pony stepmother. Fluttershy soon broke the kiss before Nala sat up. "Now, it's my turn," the changeling cooed. "Huh?" Asked Fluttershy as she watched Nala. The changeling smirked and made a twirling motion with her finger. "On your back..." Ponytropolis... Twilight quickly stumbled out of her car and made her way over to the downed mare. "H-Hey!" She called, running over and kneeling down beside her. "Ma'am?" Adagio let out a groan and rubbed her head before rolling onto her back. "What... was that?" Twilight gave her a confused look, wondering why she didn't seem hurt. "Um... Are you... okay?" The siren quickly looked at her and smiled. "Well... Hello, there," she said, holding out her hand. The unicorn stood up and took her hand, helping her up. "You... aren't hurt?" "It'll take more than getting hit by a car to hurt me..." the siren cooed, before looking in the mare's eyes. "Your car?" Twilight hesitated before taking a step back. "What are you?" "Oh, what ever do you mean, Twilight Sparkle?" The mare asked innocently. The purple mare glared at her before grabbing her by the shirt. "Listen, bitch, I--" Adagio swung her arms up to break the mare's hold before hitting her in the chest hard with her palm. Twilight let out a grunt before tumbling backwards and falling over. "Nice try," the siren cooed. "But, I didn't give you permission to touch me." Twilight growled and stood up before running at the mare. "I don't know what you are, but I'm gonna--" Adagio caught her fist when she tried throwing a punch, before pulling her closer. "You're telegraphing your moves..." She then smelled the mare before sighing. "You aren't the source of the negative energy I sensed, but... you certainly have a lot of negativity inside you... Not to mention all that magic..." Adagio's ears perked up at something before Twilight was able to break free from her hold and tackle her to the ground. Once pinning the mare, Twi raised her fist before bringing it down hard on the siren's face. "What are you?!" Twi yelled. Adagio let out a chuckle as she held her bleeding nose. "I'm just a helpless mare..." The unicorn let out a growl and punch her again. "WHAT ARE YOU?!" The siren's nose leaked more blood as she simply giggled. "You look so angry right now, it's cute..." "YOU... FUCKING... BITCH!!!" Twilight yelled, punching her after each word. Police sirens could soon be heard coming down the street a Twilight continued to sock the siren in the face. The first police car on sight belonged to Spitfire, who quickly screeched to a stop and climbed out of her car. "Twilight!" The orange pegasus yelled, running over to them. "Stop right now!" The unicorn ignored her and continued to beat the shit out of the siren. The cop finally was close enough to pull Twilight off. "Stay down!" Spitfire yelled. Twilight let out a growl and started to get up before the pegasus pulled out her gun and aimed it at her. "STAY DOWN!!!" Twilight jerked to a stop as she saw the gun. As thoughts of using her magic to pull the gun from her, her eyes looked around. They had attracted quite the crowd as the onlookers muttered things to each other, probably confused as to why the mare who was on the news for saving the city was no beating up a seemingly innocent mare. Looking at Spitfire again, she slowly sank back down to her knees. "Better..." the orange mare said plainly as she slowly lowered her gun. "Stay right there," she repeated as a white stallion cop made his way over, gun drawn to keep an eye on Twilight. The purple mare eyed him before looking at Adagio again, eyelids narrowing in anger. Spitfire knelt beside the siren and let out a sad sigh. "Are... Are you okay, ma'am?" She asked, looking down at Adagio's bloody face. The siren let out a cough as blood trickled from her nose. Her face was also covered in black and blues. "I... I don't know..." Spitfire looked at the white stallion and stood up. "Take her back to the station and get her looked at..." The cop nodded and went over to Adagio, helping her to feet and putting an arm around her. As he led her away, Adagio looked back at Twilight with a smirk. The unicorn growled and stood up as Spitfire turned to face her. "What the fuck was that, Twilight?!" She yelled, taking a step towards her. "The fuck was what?" Asked the unicorn. "She's a fucking monster, or some shit, and you just let her get away!" "Oh, cut the shit--" Spitfire sighed. "Cut what shit?!" Twi yelled, taking a step towards the cop. "This wouldn't be the first time out city's had a monster problem! Or have you forgotten?!" "A monster problem?" Asked Spitfire with a light chuckle. "You were beating up an innocent mare!" "She's not what she appears to be!" "Really? Because, from what I saw on the traffic cams... you hit her with your car... and then proceeded to beat the shit out of her!" "She was faking!!!" Twi protested, her voice raising quite a bit as she got face to face with the mare. "She seemed strong, and--" "WAKE UP!!!" Spitfire yelled, even louder than Twilight. "You've been through a lot, I get that... But, not every suspicious mare or stallion is evil!" "You don't underst--" Twi started before getting cut off. "No! I'M TALKING!!! You say you want the city safe and free from harm but the one doing the most harm right now... IS YOU!!! You're a loose cannon... If I let you keep this up, you're gonna get someone killed and I will NOT let that rest on my conscious!" Spitfire paused to stare into Twilight's eyes, the unicorn glaring back at her. "Dune and now this... That's two strikes!" Spitfire continued, holding up two fingers. "Two! Anything else happens and I will PERSONALLY... THROW YOU IN A CELL!!! Now... do I make myself clear?" Twilight exhaled deeply, crossing her arms. "You don't--" "DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR??!!!" Spitfire repeated loudly. The unicorn hesitated before nodding slowly. "Good..." the cop said as she turned and walked back to her car. Twilight just stood there, watching her drive away before letting out an angry sigh. She then headed back to her own car, the crowd starting to dissipate. When she got into her car, she backed it out of the intersection and parked it on the side of the road. She could see steam hissing from the under hood through the cracked windshield. After hitting the wheel angrily, she put the car in park and turned it off. As she got out, she heard a soft chuckle from behind her. Whipping around, she saw a purple mare with twin ponytails and a blue mare with a single ponytail. "Oh... Don't mind us," the purple mare said with a smile. Twilight stared at them before closing her car door. "You with that other bitch?" "The one you hit with your car?" Asked the purple siren. "You bet." Twilight glared at her before noticing the blue one smiling happily at her. "The f..." Aria looked at the blue mare and sighed. "That's just Sonata... She's always like that..." Twilight began to walk towards them as Aria put up her hands. "Hold up, there..." she said with a chuckle. "Don't you remember what that cop said? One more chance and then..." "You think a cell will hold me?" Asked Twilight as she stepped up to the mare. The siren looked into her eyes and crossed her arms. "Hmm... No... But, I doubt breaking out of jail will make you look any better... You'd be on the run from the cops and may have to leave the city..." Twilight let out a soft gasp and took a small step back. "That's right..." Aria cooed. "If you get locked up... who'll protect the city?" The purple unicorn clenched her hands into fists before letting out an angry yell, turning and walking away. Aria and Sonata eyed each other and smirked. Elementals' Hotel... Kyra entered her room at the hotel and closed the door, quickly making her way to the bathroom. Upon entering, the earth pony mare closed and locked the door before letting out a sigh. "Okay..." she said with a sigh, flexing her fingers before looking at the medicine cabinet. Malice opened the door to the room and looked around. "Mom?" She asked, stepping in and looking around some more. "I saw you come in here..." Gently placing her hand on the mirror, Kyra hesitated before her hand flashed red and the glass cracked. Letting out a gasp, she stumbled back into the door before she heard a knock. Jumping slightly, she quickly turned and opened the door, seeing Malice. "Oh... Hey, sweetie," she said with a smile, running her fingers through her hair. "What's up?" "I wanted to see if we could... go to the park..." the girl aid as she looked passed the mare at the cracked mirror. "What happened?" Kyra looked back and sighed. "Oh, that? Uh..." She then looked back at Malice and sat down on the closed toilet. "Something that hasn't happened since I was a kid..." Malice gave her mother a confused look. "What do you mean?" Mug Shots... Twilight sat down at the bar with a sigh and looked at the bartender. "Give me the strongest thing you have..." The stallion behind the counter nodded and went to prepare her drink before a purple mare with twin ponytails sat down beside her. "I'll have the same," she said with a smile, before looking at Twilight. "Hey. Fancy running into you here..." Twilight let out a low growl and rested her head on the counter. "Fuck." "No need to be hostile," Aria cooed, crossing her arms on the counter, leaning forward slightly. "After all, this is a pain for us, too..." "Oh?" Asked the unicorn, sounding pretty damn annoyed. "How so?" The bartender set their glasses down as Aria gave him a smile. Smiling back, he left before Aria took her drink. "You aren't the only one who has to keep her cool..." the purple siren said as she took a sip. "Oh, that's so damn good..." Twilight's ears perked up before she sat upright, eyeing the purple siren. "Right... Otherwise everyone'll see you for the shits you really are..." Aria smirked and took another sip. "Why tell me this?" Letting out a sigh, Aria set her drink down. "Why not? It's not like telling you this will change anything or make it easier on you... After all..." she said before leaning in and humming a sweet tune into the mare's ear. Twilight let out a gasp and gave her shove. Managig to stay in her seat, Aria let out a chuckle, picking up her drink again. "What the hell are you?" Twilight asked, rubbing her head. "You're a smart mare," the siren said as she eyed her drink. "You'll figure it out." Twilight watched her finish the drink and set it back down. "You call that strong?" The unicorn thought for a moment before her eyes went wide. "You're... No..." she said, changing her mind as she thought more. "Only sirens use song they way you did... but... they were large, serpent-like creatures... You're... fit." "You noticed?" Asked Aria with a wink, getting an irritated look from Twilight. Smirking, she got up from her seat. "You believe everything you read, Sparkles?" As she left, Twilight got up before looking at the bartender. "Put 'em on my tab," she said before taking off after the siren. Aria left the bar to see Sonata holding onto the pole of a traffic light, spinning around it with a peaceful smile on her face. Rolling her eyes, Aria walked over to her. "Come on, Sonata," she said. "We still have our part of the plan to carry out." "I don't think so," Twilight said as she left the bar, walking over to them. "If I stick with you two, I can keep an eye on you..." Aria eyed Sonata before looking at Twilight with a smile, crossing her arms. "Some risk you're taking. What makes you think we won't try anything?" "There are cameras everywhere..." Twi pointed out. "If I'm seen with you two before ending up dead or missing... I think we both know who the cops will come after..." Aria smirked as she stared into Twilight's eyes. "I can play games, too." "Fine," the purple siren said as she looked at Sonata. "Looks like we have a new friend." "Yay!" Sonata cheered, leaping at Twilight and hugging her. "New buddy!" "Whoa, get the fuck..." Twilight started as she pushed the siren off her. "There's no way you're a siren..." Aria let out a deep sigh. "That's what I've been saying..." Twilight looked the blue one up and down before looking at Aria. "She's a little bigger than you so I'd say she qualifies more..." "All tits and ass..." the purple siren said before looking at Sonata. "Hey!" Sonata protested, looking at Aria. "You like my ass!" Twilight just stood there, not sure what to make of this. Were these really the ones she was worried about? The fitter of the two sirens looked over at Twilight and began walking down the sidewalk. "If you're planning on stalking us, then come on," Aria said as Sonata skipped along behind her. Twi's eyes fell on Sonata's bubble butt and chuckled. "Huh..." she said, before she began following them. Carousel Boutique... Ginger entered Rarity's workroom and looked around, seeing racks of clothes and fabrics everywhere. At the far end of the room was Rarity at her desk, which was covered in sketch books and a sewing machine. The brown mare made her way over to her as she continued to scan the room. When she was close enough, she cleared her throat. "You wanted to see me?" She asked. Rarity turned in her chair and smiled, taking her glasses off and let them hang around her neck. "Yes, Ginger," she said as she stood up. "I hope you don't mind but I wanted to have you try on some bras I made earlier today..." "Oh..." Ginger replied with a light blush. "Okay..." she then said with a smile. "It's the least I could do after what you've done for me..." "Ooo, perfect!" Rarity cooed, clapping her hands together before getting up and heading over to a large wardrobe. "Let's begin with your cup size," Rarity said, before looking over her shoulder at the brown mare. "What are you, dear?" "Um..." Ginger began. "Uh... B." Rarity nodded and pulled out three B-cup bras before bringing them over to the mare. "Try this one first," she said, handing the mare a green one with a floral pattern on it. "There's a changing wall behind you." Ginger nodded and took it before Rarity set the other two bras down on her desk before going back to her wardrobe. Looking through it a little more for the other bras, she glanced back to see the faint silhouette of Ginger on the changing wall. Smiling lightly, she quickly turned back around. 'No, Rarity!' she thought. 'Now's not the time for thoughts like that...' Ginger stepped out from behind the wall and walked towards Rarity, a light blush on her face as she was topless. "H-How's it look?" The white mare smiled and walked over to her. Ginger stopped in the middle of the room as Rarity looked over the bra. "Looks like it fits well..." Rarity said before gently grabbing the bra and moving it a little to see if it fit the breasts perfectly. "Feels like it fits well..." she said as Ginger blushed more. "Is it comfortable?" The brown mare nodded with a light smile. "Yeah, it... it's nice..." The fashionista returned her smile before taking a step back. "Next one?" Ginger nodded and went to get the next bra before heading back behind the changing wall. 'Does she like me?' Ginger thought to herself as she removed the bra and set it aside. She then gently cupped her breasts. 'Is she lonely like me?' When she had made sure the red bra was in a comfortable area, she left the wall again and went back to Rarity. "Well?" Rarity smiled and did the same as before, only this time when she grabbed the bra to check if it fit she took a little longer. Looking at Ginger, the two suddenly found them looking in each other's eyes. 'Shit, she's... so beautiful...' Ginger thought. 'Oh, my...' Rarity thought. 'Those eyes...' She then cleared her throat and took her hands off the mare's chest, rubbing the back of her neck. "Looks good... How about the last one, darling?" Ginger smiled a little more warmly and nodded, heading back to the changing wall and removing her bra. Rarity blushed and took a few, soft, deep breaths. Fumbling through the wardrobe some more, she found that she couldn't concentrate so well. 'Come on, Rarity... You just met her... Nothing can or should happen this fast... Right?' Ginger looked at the third bra which showed a good portion of the top half of the breast and was without shoulder straps. Blushing, she gave a light smile. 'Time to see if I'm reading her correctly...' Removing the rest of her clothes, she now only stood in her black panties. After putting on the black bra, she looked herself over and smiled before taking a deep breath and stepping out. 'Fuck it... Here I go...' Hearing Ginger clear her throat again behind her, Rarity turned around and blushed. "O-Oh... Wow..." she said, seeing Ginger in nothing but her panties and the bra. 'Such a tease...' she thought as she began to sweat a little. "V-Very nice, uh... You can... You can change back into your clothes now... or... put them back on... I guess..." "Don't you wanna... see if it fits?" Asked Ginger, looking down at her bra. Rarity flexed her fingers a little before slowly stepping up to her, their eyes meeting. She then reached out and gently gripped the bra with both hands. "Um... Feels good..." She then let out a gasp and blushed heavily. "A-As in it... f-feels like it fits..." Pulling her hand away slightly, she bit her lip. Ginger smiled and reached behind her back, undoing the bra and letting it fall to the floor. Gently pushing it aside with her foot, she interlocked her fingers behind her back. "Does it... fit now?" The white mare's blush deepened as she stared at the mare's breasts. 'Oh, dear, I think she likes me, too...' She then slowly reached out and grabbed the brown mare's mounds. "F-Feels good..." Ginger smiled and placed her hands on Rarity's, holding them against her boobs. The two stared into each other's eyes, their heartbeats quickening. Ginger slowly took a step forward, getting closer to the mare before lifting her hands of Rarity's and slipping them under her shirt. The white unicorn felt her face heat up like a furnace when she felt the brown mare's hands slide over her torso and slip under her bra. When she felt the fingertips hit her breasts and curl around the mounds, she leaned forward and kissed the mare on the lips. Ginger gasped softly before kissing back, both mares closing their eyes. When they parted, Rarity bit her lip and took her hands off the mare. Ginger slid her hands out from under her shirt as both didn't know what to do next. "We don't... have to move so fast..." Rarity said with a smile. "We still have plenty of time..." Ginger nodded and smiled as she looked down at the floor. "Does this mean that you... want to be, uh..." Rarity gently placed a finger under the mare's chin and made her look up at her. She then leaned in and kissed her on the lips. "Yeah..." the unicorn said, nuzzling her cheek. "I do..." > "I'm your only hope of getting out alive..." > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aria headed into an alley, followed by Sonata and Twilight. She then led them to an abandoned apartment building. Twilight looked up at it and then back at Aria. "You're staying here?" Asked Twilight, as Aria stepped up to the building's back door. "No rent and no one to bother us," the purple siren said with a smirk as she entered. Twilight watched Sonata enter before following them inside. Closing the door behind her, Twilight followed the sirens down the halls until they arrived at a door that looked well-preserved in comparison to the others. "You found a room that was still livable?" Asked the unicorn as Aria opened the door. "Some rooms in here have lasted..." the purple siren explained as she entered. "Though plumbing and electricity is gone..." Twilight followed Sonata inside and looked around. It was a single room with a bed on the right and a small kitchen area on the left. At the back was a door to the bathroom. For furniture, in addition to the bed, was a bedside table, a dresser, and a couple chairs near the bathroom door. Candles sat on the dresser and table and a couple sat in the corners of the room. "Homey..." Twi said as she closed the door. "Well, I'm sure it's not as fancy as your hotel..." Aria spat as Sonata went over to the bed. "Wouldn't have to live in this shit hole if you weren't... you know... a fucking bitch," Twi said as she crossed her arms. Aria narrowed her eyes at her. "And you think you know what it's like to be a siren?" "No, and thank the gods I never have to give a shit," the unicorn replied with a smirk. "Geez, you two sound like a married couple," Sonata said with a giggle as she covered her mouth. Aria quickly looked at her. "Are you kidding me, Sonata? I wouldn't touch this shit..." She then looked over at Twilight. "Well... Maybe if she weren't... against us..." Twilight raised a brow. "You eyeballin' me?" "Of course she is," Sonata said with a smile. "She likes you." "Sonata, what the fuck?" Aria growled as she turned to the blue girl. "Whaaaat?" The blue siren asked, leaning back on the bed. "It's like you wanna eat her up, if you know what I mean..." she cooed, letting out a giggle. "That's it!" Aria yelled as she quickly walked over to the blue girl and grabbed her shoulder. "Punishment time!" Twi watched her spin the girl around and forced her to bend over on the bed. Aria then proceeded to pull Sonata's pants down and slap her ass, making her squeal happily with each one. The purple unicorn made her way over to one of the chairs and dragged it back to the bed. Setting it near the wall, she sat down and crossed her legs, watching. "This'll teach you!" The purple siren hissed as she slapped the blue girl's ass hard. "Honestly, I think she likes that," Twi said, her elbow resting on the chair's armrest with her cheek resting on her fist. Aria looked over at her and sighed. "Of course she does... But, it helps me relieve anger and stress..." She then slapped the blue ass again. "Wanna try?" Twilight hesitated as Sonata wiggled her ass a little. The unicorn tapped the armrest with her free hand a couple times before standing up. Aria backed away as Twilight stepped up to the blue mare, who was still shaking her ass. "Is she a masochist?" Twi asked as she placed her hand on the siren's slightly thick butt. "Mmm... That is a nice ass..." "I know, right?" Asked Aria as she watched. "Now, go on and slap that ass, already." The purple unicorn rolled her eyes and gave Sonata a hard smack, making her squeal. Twilight suddenly knew why Aria enjoyed this. The satisfaction of hitting someone to relieve anger and feeling their soft ass on your fingers... which they seemed to enjoy... "Awesome," Twi said softly as she smacked the girl's ass a few more times. Aria smiled and stepped up behind the unicorn before reaching around and placing her hands on the mare's inner thighs. "You have a nice body, too... Fit, like me..." Twilight looked over her shoulder and scoffed. "The fuck are you doing?" "Yeah..." Sonata giggled. "What Aria doing?" The unicorn looked at her again and slapped her ass twice. "That was fucking stupid!" Aria bit her lip and rubbed Twilight's thighs before slipping her hands under Twilight's shirt and felt her stomach. "Holy shit... You must work out like crazy..." Looking back at the purple siren, Twilight gave a light smirk. "Every day..." She then grabbed her shirt and pulled it off before throwing it aside, exposing her bra and her lightly muscular arms. "Whoa..." the siren cooed, moving her hands to feel Twilight's right arm. "Oh, fuck, it's a shame you're not one of us..." "Well, let's see how fit you are..." Twi said as she slid her hand off Sonata's butt and turned to Aria. The siren smirked and held out her arm. "Feel this." Twi nodded and gently took her arm, feeling it up and down as she admired the firmness. "Mmm... You are the fit one of the group... But, your medium-sized tits makes it appear that your body isn't as fit as your arms..." She then gripped the siren's vest and pulled it off, Aria letting her do so. "Let's see what you look like, shall we?" "Ooo, so dominant..." Aria said with a chuckle before Twilight grabbed the bottom of her shirt. "You like dominant mares, don't you?" Asked the unicorn as she grabbed both of Aria's breasts roughly. "N-Not just that..." the siren moaned. "I like it rough." The purple girl grabbed Twilight by the back of the neck and kissed her, shoving her tongue in her mouth. Sonata watched as she rolled onto her back, slowly undressing. Twi grabbed Aria's shirt again and pulled it up. The siren broke the kiss for a moment to pull her shirt off the rest of the way, exposing her B-Cups. "Nice..." Twi said with a chuckle as she grabbed the purple boobs. "I think they're big enough that I can squeeze my dick in there..." Aria tilted her head and smirked. "You have one, too?" "Oh, you bet," the unicorn cooed, taking Aria's hand and placing it on her crotch. The siren licked her lips as she rubbed the mare's bulge. "Mmm... Feels big..." "Do you have one, too?" Twi asked as she squeezed the siren's tits again. "No, but... Adagio does," Aria said before taking a step back. "Enough foreplay..." she said with a smirk before getting out of her pants. Twi watched her with a grin before starting to remove the rest of her clothes. Police Station... Spitfire leaned back in her chair at her desk and sighed. Taking off her glasses, she lightly tossed them onto her desk before looking at the clock. "Five-o-clock..." the pegasus muttered before rubbing her eyes. "Oh, so fucking bored..." When the door to her office opened she quickly stood up. "Please, tell me something's happening," she said quickly as a green pegasus mare in an officer's uniform entered the room. "Is Twilight beating someone else up now?" The green mare shook her head. "No, ma'am. But, it is about her." Spitfire sat back down and leaned back. "Go on." "Well, ma'am..." the cop began, looking a little nervous to be in the presence of the chief. "Surveillance saw Twilight with two other mares who were also seen with Adagio..." Spitfire raised an eyebrow. "The one she beat up?" The officer nodded before Spitfire leaned forward. "Interesting... She's probably just keeping an eye on them... Let me know if she makes a move." The officer nodded quickly. "Yes, ma'am," she said, leaving the room and closing the door. Leaning back with a sigh, Spitfire thought for a moment. "What are you doing, Twilight?" Abandoned Hotel... Twilight pinned Aria against the wall by her waist, both now fully naked as they looked in each other's eyes. "You're letting me do this, aren't you?" Asked Twilight. The siren smirked and stretched her arms up over her head, before interlocking her fingers. "Of course... I like it rough but I'm having too much fun to... accidentally kill you..." Twilight licked her lips before leaning in and kissing the siren's neck. Letting out a soft coo, she trailed kisses down Aria's neck towards her breasts. Once there, she grabbed the left mound and began to lick all over the right one. Meanwhile, Sonata sat with her legs spread and lightly rubbed herself, letting out soft moans. After Twilight had her fill with Aria's tits, she kissed lower and lower before burying her face between the siren's legs and licking. Moaning out, Aria closed her eyes and panted. Ratchet's Auto Body Shop... Pinkamena left the building and sat on the steps, rubbing her forehead. "Fuck..." she muttered, taking a moment before standing back up. Pulling out her phone, she began flipping through texts. "Well, who might you be?" Asked a voice from her right. Looking over, the pink mare saw a red mare in a dress, smiling at her. "Who the hell are you?" "Scarlett," the mare replied in a soft voice, stepping closer to the mare. "You're Pinkamena... of the Elementals..." "What of it?" Asked Pinks, eyeing her up and down as she crossed her arms. "Nothing," the red mare cooed. "I just bumped into Rainbow Dash earlier today and now here's another one." "Well, it was nice to meet you, but I have a job to do..." Pinks said as she started walking passed the mare. "Have fun, candy ass..." Scarlett cooed with a smile. Pinks went wide-eyed and looked back, the red mare no longer there. "The fuck?" Asked the pink mare, looking around as she started to sweat a little. "C-Candy..." Pinks started, placing her hands on her forehead and then running her fingers through her hair. "Next time I see that bitch..." she muttered, walking off. Abandoned Hotel... Twilight threw Aria onto the bed beside Sonata, the purple siren biting her lip. "On your stomach, blue girl," Twilight said as her cock stood at attention. Sonata giggled and rolled back over, both her and Aria presenting their asses to the purple unicorn. Smirking, Twilight stepped up to them, stroking her cock with her right hand as she ran her hand over Aria's ass and then Sonata's wider ass. Stopping at Sonata, she bit her lip before aligning her rod and rammed it into the blue siren's ass. Sonata let out a loud moan and arched her back. "Oh, it's so big!" She moaned. Aria looked at her before looking back at Twilight. "Bigger than Adagio?" Sonata nodded with her tongue out while Twilight moved her hips back and forth. "Damn..." the purple siren muttered as she felt juices run down her leg. Brass Star's Home... Spitfire stepped up to the door of a small home and rang the doorbell. After about a minute the door opened, revealing Brass Star in a bath robe. "Spitfire?" Asked the mare. "What are you doing here?" "I came to check on you," the pegasus replied. "We were all a little shocked when you quit." Brass looked away, looking nervous. "Uh... Yeah..." "Why... exactly did you quit?" Spitfire asked, stepping closer. Brass Star eyed her before letting out a sigh. "I... I was... helping Surprise..." Spitfire went wide-eyed in surprise. "Excuse me?" "I-I didn't want to!" The ex-chief of police blurted out defensively. "B-But, she... threatened my daughter..." The yellow pegasus hesitated, about to say something, before closing her eyes and nodded. "You know... this is some pretty serious information..." "I trust you..." Brass said with a light smile. "Also... I needed to tell someone... I betrayed all of you and... it was killing me inside..." Spitfire let out a silent gasp when she saw tears began to form in the mare's eyes. She then gently pulled her into a hug. "Hey... You did what you had to do... And Surprise is to blame, not you..." Brass nodded and shuddered before pulling away, rubbing her eyes. "Thanks..." She then sniffled and looked the pegasus in the eyes. "You should... probably get back to work... Gotta keep the lesser criminals at bay, right?" "Actually..." Spitfire said, leaning against the doorframe. "It's not the lesser criminals I'm worried about... It's Twilight..." "Twilight?" Asked Brass, tilting her head. "The one who led the group that saved us?" The pegasus nodded. "Yeah..." "What's she done?" "She... evidentally... beat the shit out of of an innocent mare," Spitfire explained. "We had to bring her back to headquarters and patch her up. Luckily nothing was broken and she left, claiming she was fine..." "Evidentally?" Asked Brass, crossing her arms. "You don't sound too sure..." "I trust Twilight, but... what she did makes no sense," Spitfire sighed. "Maybe I'm right and she is just broken after what happened with Surprise, but... that means she really is going nuts and she may in fact... hurt someone else..." Brass nodded, letting out a sharp exhale. "Well, it... looks like you have your work cut out for you... Just make sure you have all the facts before doing anything... extreme..." Spitfire gave a light smile and nodded, turning and walking away. "Catch ya later, Brass." "See ya, Chief," Brass said with a smile. "Thanks for the visit." Spitfire stopped at her car and waved bye before getting getting into her car. Abandoned Hotel... Letting out a loud moan, Sonata moaned out loudly as she reached an orgasm. As she collapsed, Twilight pulled out and shot her load all over Sonata's ass. Groaning, Aria rolled onto her side. "Great... You came... What about me?" Smirking, the purple unicorn eyed her. "Oh, what makes you think I'm done?" She asked, stroking her hardening rod. The siren's eyes went wide. "How the fuck--" "It's a magic cock," Twi explained, cutting her off. "I can go for hours..." she cooed, moving over to the purple siren. "Now, shall we do it like this?" She asked, forcing Aria on her back before grabbing her legs. Pulling her closer, she rammed her cock in her pussy, making the siren moan. She then began to thrust into her roughly, slapping her thighs against Aria's. "Oh, fuck yes..." the siren moaned out, gripping the bed sheets as she began to sweat with arousal. Spitfire looked at the clock in her office as she flipped through files in a filing cabinet. "Eight... Fucking eight," she growled, slamming the drawer shut. "Why is it so boring--" She was soon cut off as her phone rang. Quickly picking it up, she hoped it was some sort of incident that required her attention. "Ponytropolis Police. This is Chief Of Police, Spitfire speaking. How can I--" "No need for introductions," a voice cooed from the other end. "I already know who you are..." Spitfire hesitated before speaking again. "Who is this?" She asked, sitting down at her desk. "Call me Starlight," the voice answered. "But, on to more important matters..." "Important matters?" Asked the Chief, confused. "Such as?" "Such as the bomb in your building." Starlight then giggled softly. "Oh, boy is it a big one." "The f... Did you fucking put it in here?!" Spitfire yelled. "No, you fool... But, if you don't do exactly what I say... when I say it... you're all going to die... No biggie." "Fuck that, I'm pulling the fire drill," the pegasus said, getting up from her seat and running to the alarm on her wall. "Pull that alarm and the bomb goes off now," Starlight said, annoyed that the pegasus wasn't listening. Spitfire stopped with her hand on the lever and growled. "How do you know all this if you didn't put the bomb in here?" "Just trust me... Right now, I'm your only hope of getting everyone out alive... Now, how much do you care about your fellow police officers?" The chief growled through her teeth and let go of the alarm. "Fine! Tell me what to do..." "Better," Starlight cooed. "You have 4 minutes. Call the top floor and tell everyone what's going on, but keep the explanation under 30 seconds. You also need to make sure they tell everyone else on their way down the stairs." "The stairs?" Asked Spitfire. "You want them to walk?" "Take the elevators and boom. Use the intercom and b--" Spitfire went wide-eyed and put Starlight on hold before calling security. When a stallion answered, she didn't give him any time to speak before giving orders. "Shut off all elevator access now!" She yelled. "No questions, just do it! No one must use them!" "Y-Yes ma'am--" The stallion began, before being cut off as Spitfire ended the call and took Starlight off hold. "Ballsy move, Chief," Starlight said with a chuckle. "But, good job." "How'd you know what I--" "No time. Now call the top floor. You now have 15 seconds." "Fuck..." Spitfire muttered, putting the mare on hold before calling the lab on the fourth floor. "Hello?" She asked upon hearing a voice. "It's Spitfire, but... Listen... Ask no questions. Just get everyone on the top floor outside as quickly and safely as possible while informing the floors below you to do the same. Now!" She then hung up and went back to her call with Starlight. "I'm back." "That's good," Starlight cooed as the sound of rushing footsteps could be heard as everyone in the building began rushing out. "You had 5 seconds to spare." "I should probably be getting out now, too." "Don't you dare hang up now..." "What?" Asked Spitfire. "Are you serious? This place is about to--" "Without my guidance, you will die," Starlight said darkly. "Also... I lied... A little--" "You lied?" The cop asked, gripping the phone tighter. "The hell'd you lie about?!" "Mmm... Duck down..." "Duck down? What the f--" "GET DOWN NOW!!!" Starlight screamed. The cop dropped to the floor as an explosion went off, a chunk of the wall flying across the room. "Fuck..." Spitfire gasped, leaning against her desk. "That could've killed me!" "Exactly," Starlight said before sighing. "Now... Follow these instructions carefully..." The pegasus nodded and looked around upon hearing another boom. "What do I do?" "Wait until the others have left. Go to the door and watch the front entrance. When the last one has left, I'll tell you what to do next." "You want me to wait?" Spitfire asked, getting up and moving to the door. "If you run, you will die," Starlight cooed. "You really doubt me?" Spitfire looked down the hall, seeing an explosion go off in the middle of the hallway. "I guess not..." The pegasus took a few deep breaths. "Are you sure this won't get me killed?" "Oh, don't worry about that... If you die, you won't know it..." "Oh, I'm pretty sure I'll know if I'm dead." Starlight let out a giggle. "Really? Because I already saw you die five times." "What?!" Spitfire exclaimed in shock. "Yeah..." Starlight sighed. "This is getting tiring for me, so please... Do as I say..." Spitfire looked down the hall as a couple chunks of debris fell down. "Shit..." Spitfire muttered, shielding her eyes as a small explosion went off outside her door. Looking down the hall, she saw the last cop stop by the door and look at her. "Ma'am! Come on!" The teal mare called out to her. "We have to go!" "Are you the last one?!" Spitfire yelled back. "Yes, ma'am! Everyone's out but you and me!" "Get yourself out!" The pegasus called to her. "I have a way!" The teal cop hesitated before nodding and running out. "So far so good..." Starlight cooed. "Now... Wait 5 seconds and run. When you get to the front doors, stop and wait until the coast is clear before leaving. Buh-bye." The call ended as Spitfire let out a soft gasp, before putting her phone away. "Okay... One... two... three... four... five!" She yelled, bolting out into the hall as the ceiling in her office collapsed in an explosion. When she entered the lobby, the hallway behind her collapsed. "Oh, fuck me," Spitfire gasped, before skidding to a stop in front of the door. "Now, I wait..." she muttered, before the large "P" from the "PPD" sign above the doorway fell to the ground with a loud thud. Shaking her head in disbelief, she burst through the door and jumped over the fallen "P". As she joined the others, they all patted her on the shoulder and told her how glad they were she was okay. After thanking them, she looked back towards the building, watching it collapse in a fiery and smokey plume. "I commend you on your escape," a mare said, stepping up beside her. "That voice..." Spitfire said, eyeing the mare. Starlight smiled back at her, wearing a police officer's uniform. "Good job following my instructions." The pegasus glared at her. "You did this, didn't you, you f--" "Relax..." Starlight cooed. "I didn't do this... Believe it or not, I need you alive." She then turned and began walking away. Spitfire narrowed her eyes and followed. "For what?" "No need for spoilers," Starlight said as she stopped near a bench on the sidewalk. "You know I can just arrest you for obstruction of justice..." the chief of police replied, crossing her arms. "And lock me up where?" Asked the unicorn with a giggle. "Your police station is gone." "Why you little shit!" Spitfire yelled, grabbing the mare by the shirt collar. Starlight smiled and tapped her on the forehead. "Sleep..." she cooed, before Spitfire felt sleepy. "What the... fuck?" Asked the cop, before collapsing. The unicorn caught her and gently set her on the bench. "Sleep tight..." she said with a smile before walking away. Twilight rammed into Aria's ass repeatedly, making the siren moan out loudly before the unicorn let out a grunt, emptying her load. As a few globs of cum shot out due to the massive load, she slowly pulled out and sighed. "Well, that was fun..." she cooed, before sitting down on the bed. "Two cream-filled sirens..." she said as she patted Aria and Sonata's ass. Both sirens slowly slid off the bed before kneeling down between Twi's legs. They then leaned in and began to clean the mare's rod with their tongue. Letting out a sigh, Twi closed her eyes and leaned back a little as she felt the tongues on her dick. "Well..." came a familiar, unwanted voice. "Isn't this a surprise..." Twilight's eyes shot open to see Adagio by the doorway. Her eyes soon narrowed. "You..." "So, you two brought her home?" the siren leader asked as she closed the door with her foot. "She said she wanted to keep her eye on us," Aria explained, gripping Twi's rod and stroking it. "And since neither of us can kill the other without the police getting on our ass..." "You decided to get fucked in the ass by Twilight, instead?" Adagio asked as she crossed her arms with a smirk. Twilight lightly pushed Aria's hand away and stood up, walking over to the third siren. "You wanna get fucked next?" "Oh, please..." the orange siren scoffed. "You think you can impress me with that pony dick of yours?" "The others seemed to like it more than... whatever the fuck you got," Twi retorted, grabbing Adagio by her shirt's neckline and forced her against the wall. "Maybe I'll start by shoving it in your mouth... That'll shut you up..." Adagio's smirk turned to an evil grin, showing off her now sharp teeth. "I wouldn't..." she cooed darkly as her eyes glowed red. "You know, you really shouldn't threaten a siren... when there are two others right behind you..." "They won't try shit." "And neither will you..." "Wanna find out?" Twilight growled. "Let's..." Adagio cooed, the two staring into each others eyes for what seemed like an hour. Twilight's concentration was broken when her phone rang. She looked down at her pocket before looking at Adagio again. Not saying a word, she let go of the siren and reached into her pocket, pulling out her cell phone and answering it. "Hello?" She asked, keeping her eyes on the siren. "Twilight?" Came Rainbow Dash's voice. "Something happened," she said, sounding concerned. "What is it, Dashie?" "It's the Police Station..." Dash answered. "It's... gone..." "Gone?" Asked Twilight, turning from Adagio. "What do you mean gone?" "It blew up." The unicorn went wide-eyed. "What?" She asked, looking at Adagio. "I'll be there shortly," she said, hanging up. As she put her phone back in her pocket, she glared at Adagio. "Did you blow up the Police Station?" She asked, grabbing the siren by the shirt again. "Did you?!" Adagio grinned, teeth still sharp and eyes still glowing. "I haven't done a thing... Just ask the cops..." Twilight hesitated before letting her go with a grunt. She then turned and ran to the door, opening it and running out. Adagio watched her leave before looking at the other two. "I sure hope you girls are ready for round 2..." she cooed, closing the door. > The Good Ol' Days > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight pulled up to the crowd of police officers and quickly put the car in park. After turning off the engine, she exited her vehicle and looked at the destroyed building. The heat from the fire was immense, making the mare sweat. Looking around, she walked up to a couple of the cops, asking them where Spitfire was. When she got no answer, she left the crowd and sighed. "Where the f..." she started, before seeing the mare asleep on the bench. Quickly running over to her, Twi began to gently shake the pegasus. "Spitfire?" She asked, holding the mare by the shoulders. "Come on, wake up!" Letting out a tired groan, Spitfire's eyes slowly opened a crack. After muttering something, her eyes shot open fully as she quickly stood up on wobbly legs. "Where'd you..." she began, trying to keep her balance. Twilight gently grabbed her arm and held firmly to help keep her up. "Spitfire. What happened?" The pegasus held her head before eyeing the unicorn. "Twilight?" She asked. "Uh... Someone blew up police headquarters and... there was this mare named, uh... Star-something..." The unicorn went wide-eyed, letting go of the mare's arm. "Starlight?" "Yeah, that's her," the cop said as she sat back down, watching the flames as a firetruck pulled up to the building. "Did she do this?" Twilight crossed her arms and sighed. "The Starlight I knew wouldn't, but... now, I'm not sure..." "You know her?" Asked the cop, looking up at the unicorn. Twilight hesitated before nodding. "When we were young... Before I came to this city... After school, she just sort of... disappeared..." "Disappeared?" Asked Spitfire. "Well, I'd say she's back now..." "Yes, and I will find her and--" the unicorn began. "Bring her in... Alive," Spitfire interrupted as she crossed her arms. "There's still no proof who put the bomb in the building. Could've been someone on the inside. I'll do my own investigating but if Starlight is't responsible..." Twilight nodded and looked away with a sigh. "Yeah... Then it's those fucking sirens..." "Sirens?" Asked the cop, sounding confused as she sat back down on the bench. "Those three mares I was with. They admitted to it," Twi explained. "If you believe me, then we need to bring them in before they cause any--" "Twilight!" Spitfire yelled, placing her hands on her forehead in irritation. "I'm not arresting them without evidence." "But they're sirens!" The unicorn yelled, eyes narrowing, getting pissed that the mare wasn't understanding what was going on. Spitfire growled and stood up again. "If you want me to arrest them for being monsters, perhaps I should try arresting your werewolf and succubus friends!" Twilight opened her mouth to argue back but closed her mouth instead and crossed her arms. "Fine..." she growled through her teeth. "You're walking on thin ice as it is," the cop warned, before heading back towards the others to watch the firetruck put out the fire. "Don't fall through..." Twilight watched her leave before letting out a deep sigh. "Fuck..." she muttered, turning and heading back to her car. When she arrived, she noticed a dent in the front. "Oh, you gotta be fuckin' kidding me..." she grumbled, opening the driver's side door and getting in. Hesitating, she slammed her door shut and laid her head back against the head rest. "Why can't we ever get a goddamn break?" She asked herself aloud, before turning the key in the ignition and putting the car in drive. She then drove away from the sidewalk, making her way back towards the hotel. Ginger stood in the bathroom, looking at herself in the mirror above the sink. She was wearing a thin white night gown and nothing else. As she looked into the mirror, she thought about what happened earlier between her and Rarity. Blushing, she went to the door, opening it and shutting the light off. Moving down the hall, her eyes were fixed on the floor as she was deep in thought. Stopping at the bedroom door, she put her hand on the knob, stopping suddenly. Looking around, she noticed that she was at Rarity's bedroom and not the guest bedroom. Taking her hand of the knob, she made her way towards the guest bedroom. "Stupid..." she muttered. "Cant believe I almost..." Stopping in the middle of the hall, she looked back at Rarity's door. "But... w-we did..." Biting her lip, she hesitated before turning back to her room when she heard a door open. Turning back around, she saw Rarity standing in her doorway, wearing a thin black night gown. "Are you okay?" The white mare asked, hand on the door frame as she looked at the mare. Ginger hesitated and bit her lip, gently rubbing her arm nervously. "W-Well, I... I wasn't sure if... Um..." she stammered with a blush. "Because of earlier... Guest room, or... U-Uh..." She felt her face heat up before she stopped talking. Rarity watched the mare freeze up before smiling. "I get it..." she said, before motioning towards her with her right finger. Ginger blushed more and took a step towards her. "You mean..." "Mmm-hmm..." the unicorn cooed. "It's a little chilly. We can keep each other warm," she said before heading to her bed. Ginger hesitated before quickly making her way into the mare's bedroom, closing the door when she entered. Twilight parked her car outside the hotel and got out, running up the stairs whilst muttering to herself. Upon entering the hotel, she noticed a few flashes of light coming from the doorway leading to the garage. The unicorn made her way into the garage to see Bit under a car with Byte looking through a toolbox, a wrench floating beside her. Her ears suddenly perked before she looked up at Twilight, a light smile appearing on her face. "Hey, Twilight. Need something?" "Um..." the unicorn said as Bit slid out from under the car and sat up. "What are you two doing, exactly?" She asked, raising an eyebrow as she walked towards them. Bit looked back at the car before looking at Twilight again. "Fixing up this car... The driver told us it was pulling to the left..." "You're mechanics, too?" Asked the purple unicorn, crossing her arms. Bit and Byte both nodded. "Mm-hmm," the green mare said with a smile. "Since we're technicians, we also learned about similar things... Fixing up cars is one of 'em." Bit then took a step forward. "Need some help with your car?" Twilight hesitated, looking at the two mares before nodding slowly. "Mmm... I hit someone. The front could use some work." Byte went wide-eyed. "You hit someone?" The blue mare asked. "She had it coming," The purple mare said, pulling her keys out of her pocket. "Don't fuck it up," she added, tossing the mare the keys. Byte let out a surprised gasp as she caught them. Twilight then turned and walked away, both Bit and Byte eyeing each other as she left. Ginger lay beside Rarity, who was on her back with her arm around the brown mare. Both had their eyes closed as they tried to go to sleep. Ginger eventually opened her eyes, looking at the white mare. "Um... Rarity?" She asked softly. "Mmm..." the unicorn moaned softly. "Yes, Ginger?" "I was... just wondering..." the brown mare began, gently tracing circles on Rarity's belly. "Why'd you let me... stay here? I-I mean, Twilight and Dash must've told you..." "You needed help," Rarity said, slowly opening her eyes halfway. "You needed some place to stay and I needed some help around the shop. What, with Sweetie Belle and the girls having their own place now..." "Sweetie Belle..." Ginger muttered softly. "My sister." The brown mare stopped tracing circles before simply resting her hand on the white mare's belly. "What about... earlier today?" She asked, eyes focused on her hand as she didn't want to accidentally look Rarity in the eyes while she asked this. "Why did you... Um... Wh-Why did we..." The white unicorn opened her eyes all the way before rolling onto her side to face the mare. Ginger looked up at her as she saw her turning, their eyes meeting. Rarity then put her arm around Ginger and pulled her closer. "I've been alone for quite some time..." Rarity said with a light smile. "I've never... had a crush... I was asked a couple times in school but I always refused..." "Why'd you refuse?" Ginger asked with a look of confusion. "None of them seemed... right," Rarity answered, rubbing Ginger's back. "There was a stallion who seemed too rough... A mare who didn't like fashion..." "You refused her for not liking fashion?" Ginger asked, even more confused. "Oh, she didn't just dislike it... She despised it. Really was against it... She said she liked my body, but that isn't enough. Then a couple more but they either drank, smoke, or did both..." "Well, I don't do any of that, and... I don't mind fashion," Ginger said softly, smiling. Rarity smiled back with a nod. "I know... And you seemed lonely as well..." The brown mare's smile faded. "I was..." "You really loved Surprise, didn't you?" Ginger smiled lightly and nodded. "I did... We were childhood friends, too, so..." "Tell me about her," Rarity cooed, stroking Ginger's hair. "What was she like when you were kids?" The brown mare smiled lightly as she thought back to the days when she and the white mare were in school. 1994, 21 Years Ago... A seven year old brown mare sat down at her desk with a smile, setting her backpack on the desktop and unzipped it. As she pulled out her supplies, a white filly with long blonde hair sat down at the desk beside her. "Hey, Ginger," the white filly said cheerfully. The brown filly looked over at her and smiled. "Hey. Ready for the Spelling Bee today?" The white filly nodded as the teacher began reading off names. "Oh, you bet. You?" Ginger nodded as the teacher read off Silver Trails. The colt answered and raised his hand. "Studied all night." "Daisy?" The teacher called out, getting an answer from the filly. "I fell really good about this one," Ginger cooed with a wide smile. "My parents say that if I pass, or get far enough, they'll take me to the amusement park in Manehattan. I'm so excited." "Melody?" The teacher said, continuing to read off the names. After the filly answered back, Ginger looked at her friend. "So... Surprise... Your family gonna do anything if you do good, too?" The white filly smiled and nodded. "The amusement park sounds nice..." Ginger let out a giggle as the teacher read off the last few names, before calling out her own. "Here!" She answered. 2015, Present Day... Rarity smiled and rubbed Ginger's back. "She sounds like a fun kid." Ginger chuckled softly. "Oh, she was... She was the best..." "She do anything else worth sharing?" The unicorn asked, laying her leg over Ginger's. "Sorry, if I... seem like I'm prying..." "O-Oh, no, it's... it's fine," Ginger replied with a smile. "I, uh... I like remembering the good ol' days..." "There's nothing quite like them, is there?" Rarity cooed. "So, what else did she do?" "Well..." Ginger started. "She would comfort me when I was sad... and stood up for me when I got bullied." Remembering this made her smile slightly wider, a tear falling from her eye. "She was a true friend..." 1995, 20 Years Ago... Ginger looked back at her as Surprise chased her through the field near the white filly's house, both laughing and giggling. Not looking where she was going, Ginger ran out onto the sidewalk and bumped into Gear Grinder, the 8 year old school bully. He was gray with short brown hair and was wearing shorts and a white t-shirt. "Hey!" He yelled, turning to face her. "Watch where you're going!" "I-I'm sorry," Ginger whimpered, taking a step back before Gear pushed her over. When she hit the sidewalk with a yelp, Surprise burst through the bushes. "Ginger!" She yelled, sounding concerned. Her eyes then narrowed as she glared at the colt. "Apologize right now, you bully!" Gear scoffed and crossed his arms. "And, what if I don't?" He asked. "What are you gonna do--" He was cut short when Surprise ran at him and kneed him in the stomach. Letting out a wheezing gasp, he held his stomach and fell to the sidewalk, gasping for air. "Now, get out of here!" The white filly yelled, pointing down the sidewalk. "Go!" Gear coughed a few times before scrambling to his feet and taking off. "You're nuts!" He called back, trying not to cry. Surprise watched him run before she looked over at Ginger, her expression softening. Letting out a sad sigh, she went over and knelt down beside her friend. "Are you okay?" She asked, putting her arm around her. Ginger winced and looked at her knee. On it was a cut which wasn't bleeding too badly but there was some blood. "I'll be fine..." "Oh, that jerk," the white filly muttered, helping Ginger to her feet. "Come on. My mom can help get this cleaned up..." Ginger smiled as she and Surprise made their way towards the house. "Thanks... You're always looking out for me..." "Of course, Gingy..." Surprise giggled. "We're best friends..." "Best friends forever?" The white filly chuckled. "Forever and ever..." 2015, Present Day... Rarity smiled as Ginger finished her story. "Wow... That is a good friend... I'm... I'm sorry things turned out... this way..." The brown mare looked Rarity in the eyes and smiled. "I may be upset that she's gone, but... I'm really happy I'm not alone anymore..." The unicorn leaned in and kissed Ginger on the lips. "Me, too..." Ginger blushed and bit her lip, before leaning in to continue the kiss, both closing their eyes as they simply melted into the kiss. Rarity rolled onto her back, pulling Ginger atop her. The brown mare gasped into the kiss before placing her hands on the bed for support. Breaking the kiss, she lifted her head up to look down at the white mare. Rarity smiled up at her. "Now, we can do this..." she said with a wink, pulling open her night gown. Ginger looked down at her body, blushing before she leaned back in to kiss the mare on the neck. She then pulled the white mare's gown open some more before gently gripping her breasts. "Oh, darling..." Rarity cooed, reaching up to undo Ginger's gown. "Even the playing field..." Ginger smiled and sat up. "Right..." she said with a blush, opening her gown and pulling it off. After setting it on the bedside table, she laid back down and kissed Rarity on the lips, their breasts squishing together. Rarity's hands ran over Ginger's back and butt as the two made out, letting out soft moans. The two then broke the kiss to look into each other's eyes, the white mare placing her hand on Ginger's cheek. The brown mare nuzzled her palm and smiled. "Does this feel right?" She asked. Rarity smiled back and nodded. "It sure does..." Ginger leaned back in and kissed her again. Adagio looked out the window of the abandoned hotel room, holding a thin bath robe closed as she watched a couple cars pass by. "Look at them all..." she muttered. "So... unaware of what's to come..." She then took a step back from the window before turning to face the bed, where Aria and Sonata lay naked while they watched her. "Tomorrow..." She said with a smile as she approached the bed. "We start tomorrow..." "What about the cops?" Asked Aria. "We're protected from Twilight right now... But, if we show our true selves--" "Then, we will have to take care of Twilight first," Adagio cooed as she crawled onto the bed, the robe falling to the floor. "And, I know just how to do it..." > New Tech > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Next Day.... Twilight headed down the steps into the lobby, hanging a right and heading into the garage. She was only wearing a bra, panties, and her jacket. When she entered, she saw Bit and Byte looking over her car. "Well?" She asked in a stern tone. Midnight soon entered the room, still wearing her nightgown as if she had quickly gotten out of bed to follow the unicorn. "You need to put clothes on, Twilight..." she said as she finally caught up to her. "You need to put clothes on," Twi replied, eyeing the mare. "All you have on is a nightgown." She then looked at Bit and Byte again. "What did you do to it?" She demanded. "U-Uh, well, u-um..." Byte stammered. "We upgraded it," Bit cut in. Twilight raised an eyebrow as she looked back and forth at them. "What sort of upgrades?" "Well, for starters," the green mare said, opening the driver's side door to show Twilight her new steering wheel. It looked like a race car wheel; a circle with the top and bottom cut off and a handle on each side for gripping. Twilight hesitated before walking up to the car and looking inside. "So... You changed the steering wheel?" She asked, sounding unamused that this was all the two sisters managed to get done. Bit quickly shook her head. "Not just that. It has a built-in magic enhancement chip, meaning it takes less concentration to control it with your magic." "Uh-huh..." Twilight said, crossing her arms. "Why would I want to control my car remotely?" "Well..." Bit said, snapping her fingers at Byte. The blue mare nodded and went around to the other side of the car, returning with two, sleek, metallic boots. "Magnetic boots," Byte explained. "Thin metal for comfort and you control them with your magic. Just one magical surge to turn them on and another to shut them off. No need for constant concentration." Twi smiled lightly and took the boots from Byte. "I see where you're going with this..." "Of course..." Bit said as she leaned back against the car. "I could improve the link between you and the car if..." she started, before stopping. The purple unicorn set the boots down, using her magic to open the front hatch. "If, what?" She asked, slipping her feet inside. "If I... had some brain matter..." Bit said hesitantly. "From your brain..." Midnight let out a light scoff. "Why the fuck would she have brain matter?" "Actually..." Twilight said, reaching into her pocket and pulling out a blood-stained bullet. "Is that..." Midnight started, going wide-eyed in surprise. "A reminder..." the unicorn said, looking at the bullet in her palm. "Of the risks and dangers that threaten this city..." After hesitating in silence for a couple seconds, she held out the bullet to Bit. "Would this work?" "Perhaps..." The green mare said as she took the bullet. "Did it hit your brain?" "Skimmed it..." Twi answered, watching the mare. Bit nodded and waved her hand over it. "Hmm... Something there... Are you okay with not getting it back?" Twilight stared at the bullet, deep in thought before eyeing Midnight. "I don't think I need that to remind me..." she said, rubbing her forehead as she looked at Bit again. "Do what you gotta do." The green mare smiled and closed her fist, her hand glowing with green magic. Leaning in close to the steering wheel, she opened her hand as the magic soaked into the wheel. "There," Bit said with a smile. "The car should now be linked to your brain directly... Though it may not be a hundred percent..." Twi nodded and looked at the car, which suddenly turned on, engine revving. A large smile spread across her face as Bit and Byte took a step away from the car. "It works!" Byte cheered. Looking over her metallic boots, Twilight slid into the driver's seat and closed the door. Rolling down the window, she held out a fist. "You two did good." Bit smiled and fist-bumped her. "Thanks. Take it for s test drive?" "You bet," Twilight said with a light laugh, hitting the garage door button on the ceiling of her car. Adagio opened her eyes and let out a yawn, looking to her left to see Aria asleep beside her. She then looked to her right to see Sonata. Sitting up, she crawled over Aria, her breasts dragging over the purple siren's as she slid off the bed and stood up. Stretching her arms up high, she heard Aria let out a light groan. Smiling, Adagio looked over her shoulder. "Good morning," she cooed. "Wake Sonata up. We have a busy day ahead of us." Rubbing her eyes, Aria let out a yawn and slid over to Sonata, lightly shaking her. "Come on, Sonata... Wake up..." "Mmmm, no..." the blue siren muttered in her sleep. "Just one more taco..." "Sonata!" Aria yelled, before yawning deeply. The busty siren awoke and quickly sat up, letting out a sharp groan. "Ah... Too fast... Dizzy..." Adagio rolled her eyes and walked over to the window, looking out. "Get dressed..." she said, crossing her arms and propping up her breasts. "We should get this started as soon as possible..." Aria slid off the bed and walked over to Adagio, looking out over her shoulder. "So, today's the day, huh?" She asked. "I was hoping we'd have a small harem by now..." "We'll have plenty of time after we turn the city into our harem," Adagio said, turning to face her. "With all of them adoring us, they'll do anything we say. We just need a large number of civilians to make the cops give in without a fight. Our main issue is this Twilight Sparkle. She's tough... and determined..." "I'm sure you have a plan for her?" Aria asked with a raised eyebrow. Adagio chuckled and placed her hands on the purple siren's hips, stepping close to her so their chests touched. "Of course I have a plan..." she cooed. "What I need you two do is--" She cut herself off as she looked over at the bed, letting out a growl. "Sonata! Wake up!" Twilight swerved around a corner and found herself on a straight road. "Okay..." she said with a smirk. "Let's do this..." She then let go of the wheel and began to control it with her mind. The wheel obeyed her commands as she gradually moved left and right while staying in her lane. "Now to test the boots..." she cooed, looking around. "But, how am I gonna get to the--" She let out a yell of surprise as the roof of the car above her opened up and she was ejected through it. Suddenly, a burst of flame from the top of her magnetic boots thrusted her back down with a clunk. Looking down, she found herself standing on the roof as the car started to swerve. "Oh, shit," she gasped, the opening in the roof closing. Turning to face the road, her boots keeping her attached to the metal surface of her car, she began to use her mind to keep the car in control. "Oh, this is great!" She yelled with a smile, holding her arms out at her sides as she felt the rush of air on her face. She then crouched down and placed her hands on the roof as she made the car turn down a side road. Suddenly her phone rang, making her jump sightly. Letting out a sigh, she reached into her pocket and pulled it out, bringing it to her ear. "Yes?" She asked in an annoyed tone, standing up. "Well, how 'bout that?" Said a familiar voice. "The number was right..." Twilight gasped before narrowing her eyes. "You... How'd you get this number?" Adagio let out a chuckle. "Surprise gave it to me." "I bet that bitch did..." the unicorn growled. "Now, what the hell do yo want?" "I'll be at the park if you wanna have a little face-to-face..." Twilight hesitated before making the roof of her car open again. "Why are you telling me this?" She asked as she dropped back into her seat, the roof closing again. "You want me to beat the shit out of you?" "I would simply like the opportunity to explain myself," Adagio cooed. "To prove I'm not who you think I am." The purple mare sighed and leaned back against her seat, making her car drift through an intersection as she turned left. "Fine... I'll give you one chance..." "One's all I need," Adagio sang. "Thank you, Twilight." Twi hung up and sighed again, more deeply this time. "Fuck..." Fluttershy and Chrysalis left the hotel, arm-in-arm, as they went for a walk down the sidewalk. "Nala seems to be warming up to me..." Flutters said as she leaned her head against the changeling. Chrysalis smiled and eyed the mare. "She just felt let out... I was spending more time with you and less with her... But, now that we're settled we can give each one the attention they deserve." Fluttershy blushed at this and smiled. "I thought it'd be weird and... a little uncomfortable at first, but... I-I like, um... our arrangement..." "Arrangement?" The queen asked with a chuckle. "You mean feeding my children by showing them love?" "Yeah, that..." the mare cooed, blushing more. As they walked, they saw two mares coming towards them, looking like they were going to walk passed them. One was blue with a ponytail and the other was purple with twin ponytails. When they were about to pass, the purple let out a gasp. "Are you Chrysalis and Fluttershy of the Elementals?" She asked. The queen and the mare stopped and eyed her. "Who are you?" Asked the changeling. The purple mare smirked. "Just waned to sing you a Thank You song..." she cooed, as the blue mare began humming. Twilight pulled up to the park and turned off her engine, hesitating in thought for a moment. If the siren tried anything, she would most likely take her out then and there. Rubbing her temple, she got out of her car and closed the door, making her way into the park. As she entered, she saw the siren sitting on a bench, cross-legged and waiting. Upon seeing her, the orange siren smiled and waved. "Twilight. Welcome," she cooed, standing up. "Glad you could make it..." "This better be good..." Twi said as she crossed her arms, stepping up to the siren. Adagio let out a soft chuckle. "Ooo, feisty..." she said as she leaned in. "I would watch that attitude if I were you..." "So, you didn't really wanna make up, did you?" Twi asked, eyes narrowing. "You just wanted to cause some shit?" "Oh, Twilight..." Adagio chuckled. "You're so much fun to tease," she said as she crossed her arms. "Shame it all has to end..." "End?" Asked Twilight, wondering what this siren was up to. "What do you mean?" "Well, this cute little game of ours can't go on forever... and I believe I should end it before we get too used to it..." Twilight let out a soft growl and took a step towards her. "What did you do?" "Ohh... You know... Just sang a song..." Twi grabbed her by the shirt and got up in her face. "What the fuck did you do?" "Whoa, careful," Adagio said with a smirk, holding her hands up. "Others are watching..." "You tell me right now, you bitch..." the unicorn growled, her grip on the siren's shirt tightening as her eyes became slits. Adagio hesitated for a few seconds, simply smiling. She then let out a soft chuckle. "I hear your changeling friend is quite delicious..." Twilight let out a gasp before kneeing Adagio in the chest and throwing her to the ground. She then pulled out her gun and aimed it at her. "What the fuck did you do?!" She yelled, before she heard the sound of police sirens. Adagio coughed a little as she looked up at the purple mare. "She's safe... for now... But, I can assure you, she won't be coming to help you..." "Why not?" Twi demanded, kicking Adagio in the side as hard as she could. "What did you do?!" Coughing a little more, the siren rolled onto her back. "Oh, I simply... sang her a song..." "Oh, you bitch..." the unicorn growled through her teeth. "I'll fucking kill you..." The police sirens were loud now as the cop car pulled up to the park. Without turning off the engine, Spitfire climbed out and removed her shades. "Twilight Sparkle!" yelled the cop, slamming her car door shut and pulling out her gun. "The fuck are you doing?!" She asked, raising her gun as she made her way towards the mare. "Stay out of this, Spitfire!" Twi yelled, keeping her eyes on the siren. "This doesn't concern you!" "As Chief Of Police... Yes, it does!" The pegasus shouted, moving beside Adagio, gun aimed at the unicorn. "Now, put the fucking gun away!" The siren started to laugh under her breath, slowly getting to her feet. "Oh, Twilight, I apologize... I seem to have an unfair advantage..." "Yeah, bitch?" Asked the purple mare. "What's that?" Adagio grinned and moved behind Spitfire, placing her hands on her hips and leaning in, licking her neck. Spitfire acted like she didn't notice or care. "She's all mine... And all it took was a little song..." Twi took a step back and scoffed. "You gotta be kidding me..." "Does it look like I'm kidding?" Adagio cooed, her left hand moving to Spitfire's right breast as her right hand slipped into the mare's pants. Twilight let out a soft growl. "So, why the bullshit phone call if you got the cops in your pocket?" "The spell won't last forever..." Adagio explained, pulling her hand out and licking her fingers with a soft moan. "Unfortunately... But, once I make this city bend to our will... we'll have enough power to make the spell last indefinitely..." "Oh, I'll stop you before that happens..." "I doubt it," the siren said with a smirk before walking away. "Hey!" Twi yelled, aiming her gun at her. "Get back here!" "Twilight!" Spitfire shouted. "I told you to put the gun down!" "You don't understand, Spitfire. She's using you!" The unicorn replied, moving her gun to Spitfire. "And you're in my way..." She then used her magic to pull Spitfire's gun from her hand before rushing her, knocking her to the ground. "Nothing personal," she said, before taking off after Adagio. The cop growled and sat up, pulling out her radio. "All units... Bring Twilight Sparkle in alive. She should be considered armed and dangerous, so be careful... Also... don't forget the rings..." Adagio chuckled and looked back at Twilight, hearing her behind her. She was already across the street as Twilight had left the park. "Maybe I'll pay your sexy dragon friend a visit!" She called. Twilight let out a gasp and holstered her gun, using her mind to turn on her car. Looking over to where she parked it, she made it pull up to her and climbed in. Looking back at the park, she saw Spitfire standing up and aiming her gun, firing it. "Shit," Twi muttered, putting the car in drive and taking off towards Bit & Bridal, hoping to beat Adagio there. Little did she know, it was already too late... > Mistress vs. Pet > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight skidded to a stop in front of Bit & Bridal, quickly hopping out while using her mind to shut the engine off. Pulling out her gun, she ran into the shop, aiming her gun. "Sterling?!" She called out, moving to the counter. "Flog?!" Looking all around, she came to the conclusion that they weren't downstairs. Having this in mind, she made her way into the shop at the back. Empty. Letting out a low growl, Twilight moved to the stairs and took it step by step as she made her way upstairs. The hallway was void of any movement and there was no audio cue to suggest that anyone was here. "Please, tell me I'm not too late..." Twi muttered before stepping into the training room, letting out a gasp. Flog and Sterling stood in the center of the room with Adagio standing behind them. "Mmm, too late to stop me, yes," Adagio cooed evilly. "But, not too late for the fun..." With that, Flog took a step towards Twilight. "Uh uh uh..." the siren said with a grin. "Sterling... Be a dear and take out the trash for me..." The dragoness nodded before walking towards the purple mare. "Oh, you gotta be shitting me..." the unicorn sighed, putting her gun away. Sterling quickened her pace before rushing Twilight, grabbing her and slamming her into the wall. Letting out a grunt, Twilight kneed the dragon in the stomach, causing her to stumble back. "Come on, Sterling," Twi pleaded. "Recognize me..." "No use trying to talk her out of it," Adagio said with a smile. "She's under my control now." Sterling let out a growl and swung her fists at Twi, who dodge both before blocking a third strike. Sterling then kicked her through the doorway and into the hall. "Ah, fuck!" Twi grunted as she hit the floor. "Come on, you can put up a better fight than that!" Adagio called out as Sterling stepped into the doorway. "Where's that tough girl act you were putting on earlier?" "I'll beat the shit out of you!" Twi said as she got to her knees. "Come fight me on your own." "Oh, you wouldn't want to face me," Adagio said with a chuckle. "You'd lose." "We'll see about that," the purple mare said before diving to the side to avoid a kick from the dragoness. "You tellin' me Twilight's on the run from the cops?" Applejack asked as she and Swift Blade made their way down the stairs to the hotel's lobby. "That's what I heard," the dark gray pegasus said before Applejack stopped at the bottom of the stairs, holding out her hand to stop the pegasus. Standing in the lobby was Aria and Sonata, talking with Fluttershy and Chrysalis. "Who the hell are those two?" AJ asked. Blade looked over at them and eyed the orange mare. "I think they're with the mare that Twilight beat the shit out of." Applejack looked at the gray mare and sighed. "Then, what the hell are they doing here?" She asked, walking towards them. Aria stopped talking to Fluttershy and Chrysalis when she saw AJ, smiling at her. "Hello," she said, turning to face her. "Aria Blaze. You are?" AJ slowed her pace as she stood in front of her, eyeing Chrysalis and Fluttershy before looking at Aria again. "Who are you and what are you doin' here?" "Ooh, hold that thought," the purple siren said quickly, holding up a finger. "Do you like music?" Sterling let out a grunt as she threw Twi into the bedroom, the purple mare hitting the floor with a grunt. She then quickly scrambled to her feet before running to the bed, crawling over to the other side. When the dragoness entered the room, she saw Twi standing on the other side of the bed. "Come on, Sterling," Twi said as she let out a soft chuckle, patting the bed. "I fucked you in the mouth right here. Remember?" The dragoness kept silent before she began to move around the bed. "Oh, c..." Twi started. "Don't you remember anything?" When Sterling continued to say nothing, Twi waited till she was close enough before diving over the bed. The dragon reached out and grabbed her leg airborne, slamming her down into the bed. "Oh, you wanna go," the unicorn asked nervously, before being flipped around. Sterling then grabbed her neck and squeezed, the purple mare coughing as she grabbed her strong pet's wrist. "Goddammit..." she choked out. "Snap... the fuck... out of it!" She then kneed Sterling in the chest, causing the dragon to grunt and throw the mare over the bed. When she hit the floor, Twi scrambled to her feet and made a dash for the door. Sterling quickly grabbed the lamp on the bedside table and chucked it hard at the fleeing mare. Smashing against Twilight's legs, the unicorn tripped and fell into the hallway. Wincing in slight pain at the cuts on her legs, she began to crawl down the hall. "Fuck..." she groaned, dragging herself along the floor. When she passed the training room, she peered inside. Empty. "The fuck?" She asked as she kept dragging herself towards the stairs. When she got to the stairs, she stumbled to her feet and gripped the railing. Grunting, she got up and turned away from the stairs before having her throat grabbed by her pet. "Oh, fuckin'..." she choked, before Sterling threw her down the stairs. The mare hit the steps with a pained grunt as she tumbled to the bottom. Aria smirked as she circled Applejack, who stood there in a trance-like state. "Mmm... It worked..." she cooed. "Is everyone like this?" Sonata looked around the lobby to see all the Elementals standing still, eyes on them. "Sure looks like it," she said cheerfully. "What next?" The purple siren let out a chuckle. "I do believe it's time to cause a little chaos," she said with a smile, moving to the front doors. "Time to take over the city, and then..." she said, hesitating to continue. "Surprise?" Sonata asked. "We are still carrying out her plan, right?" Aria nodded. "It's what Adagio wants..." she said with a hint of uncertainty. She then let out a soft chuckle. "I think her feelings are clouding her judgement, but... it's her decision..." "You like her, don't you?" Sonata asked as she approached the purple siren. Aria scoffed and opened the doors. "I have no idea what you're talking about..." Giggling, Sonata looked at the lobby full of Elementals and put her fingers in her mouth. After whistling, the Elementals began to walk towards the front door. Mystic Star watched from the top of the stairs, before ducking into the hallway. "Oh, no..." she mouthed, before heading down the hall.'I have to find help,' she thought to herself. Grunting softly, Twilight dragged herself across the floor towards the front door. When she passed the front desk, she stumbled to her feet and let out a wince of pain. She forgot how strong her pet was. She was, after all, the one who initially trained her. Looking back, she saw Sterling coming towards her. "S-Stay back..." Twi grunted, trying to use her magic. Her head hurt too much to concentrate as she stumbled into one of the shelves. "Fuck..." She grunted, continuing towards the door. Looking back, she saw Sterling getting closer. "Oh, come on," she said as she pulled out her gun and aimed it at the dragon. "Don't make me do this..." Sterling didn't seem fazed by this at all and kept coming closer. Twilight sighed in defeat, knowing she may have to pull the trigger. Shaking her head, she sniffled and backed up. As a tear fell from her eye, she thought of a different solution. Aiming lower, she shot her pet in the leg, making Sterling let out a grunt and fall over, clutching her leg. "Wh... What happ..." Sterling started, before noticing Twilight aiming a gun at her. Going by her expression, Twilight could see she was no longer in a trance. Shaking her head as her hand trembled, Twilight stared at her. "I-I..." Suddenly, the door was kicked open as Spitfire entered. "Freeze, Twilight!" She yelled as she aimed her gun, sounding a little more like herself than how she sounded earlier while under a trance. Looking down at Sterling, she let out an angry sigh. "You just can't get enough, can you?" She asked, taking a step closer. "You really have gone off the deep end. Maybe what you need isn't jail... but serious help..." Twilight felt her heart beat quicken as she looked down into Sterling's eyes before mouthing "I'm sorry..." "Drop the gun and put your hands on your head," Spitfire demanded, moving closer. The unicorn hesitated before holding her gun's grip with only two fingers, holding it out at her sides before setting it down. Standing back up, she put her hands on the back of her head. Her ears twitched when she heard the floorboard behind her creak and the sound of handcuffs. She then whipped around, hitting Spitfire in the face with her elbow. Making the mare stumble back with a grunt, she pushed passed her and ran out the door. The cop yelled in annoyance and whipped around, firing once out the door. "DAMMIT!!!" She yelled, before pulling out her radio. "Bring and ambulance to Bit & Bridal and put out an APB on Twilight Sparkle!" She said as she knelt beside Sterling and looked over her wound. "I want her found and brought in!" "Ma'am?" Came a mare's voice. "You already have us looking for her." Spitfire froze as she and Sterling eyed each other. The dragon then applied pressure to her wound as the cop raised her radio again. "Say that again." "You... already told us?" The mare repeated questioningly. Spitfire hesitated before lowering her radio. "Now, why don't I remember that?" She asked as she eyed Sterling. "I-I don't really remember much, either..." the dragoness admitted. The orange pegasus lightly nodded and then gently rubbed Sterling's back. "How's the leg?" "Hurts..." the dragon said, trying to ignore the pain. "Don't worry. Ambulance is on its way." Sterling then quickly looked at her. "You're not gonna hurt her, are you?" Spitfire hesitated before letting out a sigh. "I don't know... I hope I can figure out what the hell's going on soon, though..." The door burst open once again as a green mare ran in. "I heard a gunshot! What's..." she quickly stopped as Spitfire aimed her gun at her. Letting out a sigh, the cop lowered her weapon. "You're Jade, right?" She asked, before Ruby appeared beside her sister in a burst of thick, red smoke. "And... Ruby?" "What happened?" Asked Jade, moving to Sterling and kneeling beside her. "Twilight shot her," Spitfire said, sounding unsure. "Twilight did this?" Ruby asked, slowly walking towards them. "That doesn't sound like her..." Spitfire nodded. "She did take the Surprise incident hard, but... I think you're right... Something's going on here..." "Any thoughts?" Asked Jade. "Well..." the yellow mare began. "Sterling and I don't remember much about what happened... and both instances we ran into Twilight..." "A-And that... other mare..." Sterling spoke up. "The other mare?" The cop asked with a raised eyebrow. "What other mare?" "That one with the poofy hair..." Spitfire let out a gasp as her radio crackled to life. "Spitfire, Ma'am!" a mare's voice yelled. "We have a situation!" The pegasus grabbed her radio and brought it to her mouth. "What is it?" "It's the Elementals! They've gone insane!" "Tell me exactly what's happening," Spitfire said calmly as she stood up. "They're shooting at cars and buildings!" "Any casualties?" "N-No... They seem to be avoiding civilians... But, if things get out of hand, we may have to open fire on them... I don't think arresting them will be an option..." Spitfire eyed the others. "Do not open fire on them, do you read me?" There was no answer. "Did you read me?!" She said louder, before turning the channel dial on the radio. After trying the talk button a few more times, she let out a grunt. "Fuck!" "What's wrong now?" Asked Ruby, looking out the door as she heard the gunfire. "There's multiple smaller police stations in the city..." Spitfire explained. "After our main headquarters blew up we've been using the radio tower on one of the other stations to communicate with... And, I think someone just took it out..." "Y-You have to go," Sterling said, looking at the pegasus. "Get to the Elementals before they all get shot... S-Something tells me it isn't their fault..." "Something tells me you're right," Spitfire said with a nod, putting her radio away. "You two stay here," she said to Jade and Ruby as she made her way towards the door. "Stay?" Jade asked as she stood up. "We can help!" "Not this time," the cop said as she turned to face them. "Stay here with Sterling. Make sure she doesn't bleed out," she ordered before leaving. Ruby watched her go before eyeing Jade. "Do we have time for this?" Jade looked down at Sterling before looking at her sister. "We have to make time..." With that, she knelt beside Sterling again as Ruby looked out the door, listening to the gunfire. > To Shoot Or Not To Shoot > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spitfire peeled out onto the main road, narrowly avoiding an oncoming truck. "Shit," she gasped softly as she pulled out her cell phone, nearly going up on the sidewalk as she did. "Dammit..." she muttered as she speed-dialed. "Come on, come on... Pick up..." she whispered to herself as she swerved through traffic. "I know you have your phone..." After a couple more near-death swerves, the call was answered. "Well, I'm... surprised to be getting... this call... came a certain unicorn's voice. "Oh, there you are," Spitfire said as she turned left at the next intersection. "Are you okay? You sound--" "Like shit?" Twi interrupted. "One usually feels that way when everyone's against them..." The pegasus let out a sigh, hesitating. "Where are you?" She asked. "As if I would fucking tell you..." Twi spat, groaning a little. "I know I should've trusted you," Spitfire admitted. "But, you have to admit from my perspective you do seem pretty fucked in the head. How was I supposed to know you weren't letting your paranoia get in the way?" "Wow..." was all Twilight said. After a brief moment of hesitation, she spoke again. "And you wanna meet..." "You're right..." the cop sighed, speeding passed a semi as she neared one of the smaller police stations. "I... I'm sorry, Twilight... But... you don't sound too good... Tell me where you are, let me help you, and let's take these bitches down together." There was a moment of silence as Twilight thought before finally speaking up. "Fine... I'm in an alley... near the bus depot..." Spitfire nodded as she sped into the parking lot of the police station, skidding to a halt. "By the bus depot. Got it," she said as she got out of her car. "I'll be there shortly..." Smaller Police Stations Hanging up, she made her way inside the small station before she was jumped by one of the cops inside; a blue unicorn mare with short green hair. Letting out a grunt, she kneed the cop in the chest before throwing her into the ground. "Here, too..." Spitfire grunted angrily before a grey stallion came running from the reception desk. Quickly grabbing his arm, Spitfire threw him into the wall, knocking him out. She then hung a right and ran down the hall, then turning left as she neared the staircase. As she got closer, a yellow mare with shoulder-length grey hair stepped out and aimed a gun at her. Before she could get a shot off, Spitfire tackled her to the floor. When they hit, the pegasus grabbed the mare's wrist and slammed it against the floor, making her let go of the gun. Spitfire then quickly rolled off the mare and grabbed the gun, aiming it at her. As she did, she saw the mare holding up her hands in defeat as she looked back at her with a frightened and confused expression. Tilting her head, the pegasus lowered her gun and sighed. "You okay?" She asked, receiving a hesitant nod from the mare. "Shit..." she muttered, getting to her feet and holding out her hand. The mare took it and stood up. "Wh-What happened?" Asked the mare nervously. "Why can't I remember?" "It's a long story..." Spitfire said with a light chuckle, patting her on the shoulder. "Check on the others... They didn't quite... snap out of it in time... before I... beat them down..." The yellow earth pony nodded and took off towards the .lobby to help out. As she left, Spitfire ran up the stairwell and burst through the doorway onto the roof. Squinting her eyes, she approached the radio tower base. "Um..." she muttered to herself as she got closer. "Ruby, Jade... If you two can hear me, and I know you can... Get to the Elementals..." She stopped in front of the radio tower, looking at a huge chunk taken out of the base, sparks shooting off as wires hung a in a crackling mess. "Our radios are fucked..." Tilting her head, she moved around to the side and let out a gasp. The chunk resembled a bite mark, as if something took a bite out of it. "What the..." Mystic Star paced back and forth in Trixie and Lightning Dust's room. "What do we do?" She asked the group. In the room was Trixie and Lightning Dust, but also Chai Mocha, Pick Lock, and Blood Rain. "Our friends have gone crazy and are shooting up the town..." "Well what can we do?" Asked Blood Rain, the dark lavender pegasus walking to the window. "And the cops are surrounding them..." Chai got up from the couch and walked over to the window, looking out as well. "If we try and intervene... they may shoot us, too..." "This is ridiculous," Trixie spoke up as she stood. "The police can't just shoot them. Can they?" "If they are seen as a threat, then yes," Lighting said with a sigh. "Shit, this is getting out of hand..." Blood Rain eyed her before looking out the window again. "Hold up..." she said as she watched the bullets fly outside. "They aren't shooting anyone... Just parked cars and buildings..." Chai observed too and nodded. "She's right. There's others running around out there but they're being ignored..." Lightning thought for a moment before standing up. "Those two mares Mystic saw did something to them... Put them under some kind of hypnosis, or something... What if they're only causing chaos and not trying to kill anyone?" The dark lavender pegasus turned to look at her. "Then, the cops will play it safe... and kill them before anyone is hurt..." "What?!" Trixie exclaimed. "No. They can't!" "Actually, they can," said Pick, eyeing Trixie. "Our friends are seen as a threat... If this goes on any longer, they'll have no choice but to shoot them... Preservation of the whole is more important than the few..." There was a moment of silence before Trixie let out an annoyed sigh, heading for the door. "Not if the Great and Powerful Trixie has anything to do with it!" She yelled, opening the door. "The... what, now?" Asked Lightning, turning to face her with a confused look. The light blue unicorn stopped and looked back at her. "Um... It was... something I called myself when I was younger... and into performing magic tricks..." After hesitating for a few seconds, she took off. "Come on! The others need us!" Lightning smirked before following. "I'm in." "The chance of success is actually very low given the circumstances," Pick said as she looked at the other two mares left in the room. Blood and Chai both looked at each other before quickly following after Lightning and Trixie. Letting out a sigh, Pick got up. "Wait, I'm coming, too!" A teal cop wearing shades and a hairstyle similar to Spitfire's drove up to the line of cop cars blocking the street. Screeching to a stop, she got out and walked over to a pink mare cop. "What the hell is going on, Cotton?" Asked the teal mare. The pink mare looked back at her before holding out a pair of binoculars. "Fleetfoot, ma'am... It's the Elementals. They're shooting up the town." "The Elementals?" Asked Fleetfoot, taking the binoculars and looking. She could see the mares and stallions coming down the street a few blocks away, shooting at buildings and cars. "Dammit..." she muttered, before spotting Applejack and Rainbow Dash. "Even you two..." She then lowered her binoculars. "Have there been any casualties?" Cotton shook her head. "No, ma'am... They've only been shooting at cars and buildings..." Fleetfoot gave her a nod. "Any word from Spitfire?" Cotton shook her head again. "Radios don't work. Can't reach her." Fleetfoot hesitated before sighing. "Are all routes blocked?" "Yes, ma'am. Elementals are stuck on this street." She then looked down the street. "Are we... going to kill them? After they saved us?" "That doesn't matter if they pose a threat," the teal pegasus said before hesitating in thought. "We can't risk the lives of the civilians... If they keep this up any longer, we'll have no choice but to shoot to kill..." Spitfire stepped into an alley by the bus depot., gun aimed ahead of her. Down the alley, laying against a dumpster, was the purple unicorn with a gun aimed at the cop. Spitfire noticed it was smaller than the gun she usually had. "That's a nice gun, Twilight," she said, stepping forward. "Smaller than your other one..." "You didn't think I wouldn't have a back-up, did you?" Twi asked, her left knee up against her chest. "I can't say I approve of the way you're aiming that gun at me..." Spitfire said as she took another step closer. "How do I know you're you and not a puppet for that bitch?" Twi demanded through clenched teeth. "Is that why you agreed to see me?" The cop asked. "So you could kill me?" "If I had to..." was all Twi said as her eyes narrowed. Spitfire kept her gun on the unicorn, the two locking eyes. For a minute, it seemed the two would have a shoot-out, before Spitfire lowered her weapon. She then holstered it and held her hands by her sides. Hesitating, Twilight let out a sigh and let her arm drop, the gun falling from her hand as she let out a groan, holding her right arm. "You're hurt," Spitfire said as she ran over and knelt beside the mare. "Of course..." Twi grunted. "I was thrown down a flight of fucking stairs..." "By that dragon?" They pegasus asked with a hint of distrust. "It wasn't her fault..." Twi groaned. "She was under a spell from that bitch Adagio... Like you..." Spitfire nodded. "Yeah... And, your team..." Twilight went wide-eyed and looked at the cop. "Wh-What?! Those other two bitches got my team?!" Nodding, Spitfire ran her hand over Twi's leg to see if she could feel any broken bones. "We have to get you up and moving, or those cops will shoot your friends." "Fuck that," Twi said as she started to stand up, letting out a groan. "Whoa, you need to take it easy," the pegasus said as she grabbed Twilight's arm. Twi just swatted her hand away before holding onto the dumpster. "Fuck off... I can do this..." she said with a light wince. "I can't let them get killed..." "You're not fit to do anything right now, Twilight..." Spitfire said, concerned. "You can barely walk!" "You underestimate me..." the unicorn grunted before she began to make her way down the alley, towards the street. The cop squatted down and picked up her gun before following her. "You're so fuckin' stubborn..." Twilight smirked as she limped out onto the street. "You like it..." "Don't flatter yourself," Spitfire said as she walked over to her car, opening the passenger door. "I'll drive. Get in." Twi hesitated before she felt a pain in her leg. "That would be best..." she said, making her way to the police car and climbing in. When she was in, Spitfire closed the door before making her way to the driver's side, getting in. "Here's your baby gun," she said, holding out Twi's back-up. The unicorn eyed her and slowly took it before the cop pointed at the glove compartment. "Your real one's in there..." She then turned on the engine and put the car in drive. Twilight opened the glove compartment and took out her custom gun before Spitfire took off. Vinyl and Octavia were laying under their bed, listening to the sound of gunfire in the distance. "They're in trouble, Vinyl..." the gray mare said softly. Vinyl eyed her before climbing out from under the bed, walking over to the closed window curtains. Octavia peeked out from under the bed and gasped, quickly getting out from under the bed. "What are you doing?" She gasped. "It's sunny out." "I can take a little..." the DJ said as she opened the curtain partially to peek outside, sunlight hitting her eye. Wincing, she looked towards the sound of gunfire, able to hear the police talking about their plan. Vinyl then closed the curtains and gasped as she looked at Octavia, the huge burn around her eye slowly healing. "It doesn't... look good..." she said as her burn fully healed. "The police... might shoot them..." Octavia nodded and closed her eyes. "I can hear them... Is there nothing we can do?" The DJ crossed her arms and shook her head. "Not until the sun goes down... Though, I don't think it'll last that long... Either they solve the problem soon... or they'll die..." "No!" Octavia yelled, taking a step forward. "We can't let them--" "What do you want me to do, Octi?!" Vinyl asked, cutting her off. "What do you wanna do? Run out there and burn up?" Octavia opened her mouth to say something, but changed her mind. Vinyl slowly walked up to her, smiling lightly before putting her hands on her hips. "You're a vampire now, Octi..." she said as she looked the mare in the eyes. "You aren't... regretting it, are you?" She asked, sounding a little worried. Octavia eyed her before sighing. "I'm more frustrated I can't help, but..." She then smiled and put her hands on the DJ's shoulders. "I will never regret being able to spend an eternity with you..." Vinyl smiled and leaned in, kissing her on the lips. The cellist did the same, both closing their eyes and moving to the bed. Trixie, Lightning Dust, Mystic Star, Chai Mocha, Pick Lock, and Blood Rain all gathered on the roof of the hotel. "So, we hop rooftops to get behind the cops," Lightning said, going over the plan. "We then take them out, but no killing. We're just trying to keep our friends alive. Not kill cops..." "Right," Trixie said with a smirk, facing the edge of the roof. But we may not have to hop..." "What do mean?" Asked Lightning, facing her before crossing her arms. "Twilight taught me how to use magic," the unicorn said as she looked at her hand. "I think I can..." she said, before walking to the ledge and holding out her hand. Concentrating hard, her horn and hand lit up with her blue magic. Grunting with effort, the unicorn watched as a blue platform formed between the two rooftops. "Heh!" Trixie exclaimed happily. "I did it... Trixie did it!" Smirking, Lightning Dust walked passed her, patting her shoulder on the way. "Good job, Trix," she cooed with a smile as she stepped up to the magic bridge. Tapping it with her foot, she felt that it was solid. "Well, it is a bridge," she said with a chuckle, before running across. Rarity's Boutique Ginger walked down the hall of the boutique, carrying a broom as she was covered in dust. Letting out a cough, she passed by the upstairs bathroom. The sound of a running shower could be heard through the door. Stopping, she let out a sneeze, wiping some dust off her face. "Ginger, sweetie?" Rarity called from the bathroom. "That you?" "Y-Yes," the brown mare called from the bathroom, sniffling. The sound of the shower quickly faded. "Are you coming down with a cold?" "N-No, I... AH-CHOO!" She sneezed. "It's dust. I was sweeping under Sweetie's bed..." "Oh, dear..." Rarity said as she sounded closer. "I'm sure it was quite dusty under there..." The door then opened, revealing Rarity wrapped up in a towel. "After all, she hasn't used it in..." She then tilted her head and reached a hand out, placing it on Ginger's cheek. "Oh, you're absolutely dirty, darling..." "It's fine," Ginger said with a smile, and a light blush. "I'll clean up later." "Nonsense," the unicorn cooed, gently taking Ginger's arm and pulling her into the bathroom. "Clean up with me. Come on," she said, closing the door once they were inside. The brown mare blushed and felt her heart skip a couple beats. "O-Oh... Okay... Are you sure?" She asked. "I-I mean... we just started... going out, right?" Rarity had let go of her and just turned on the shower, before stopping and turning to face her. "Oh, Ginger, sweetie..." she said with soft tone, walking up to the mare. "It's not like we have to... do anything..." she said with a light chuckle. "We're just washing up. Though, if you're truly uncomfortable with it, you don't have to shower with me." Ginger blushed heavily and looked at the door before looking at the shower. "I guess we're... both girls..." she said with a light smile before setting the broom against the sink. She then pulled off her top, revealing her black bra. After slipping out of her shorts, she kicked them aside and stood in her underwear. Rarity smiled and stepped up to her, slowly reaching around her in case she wanted to pull away. "Let me help..." she cooed, undoing the bra. As she pulled away, Ginger let her bra drop to the floor, showing off her B-cups. Rarity noticed her blush growing and leaned in, giving her a quick, gentle kiss on the cheek. The brown mare smiled lightly and gripped her panties, pulling them down to her knees before letting them drop. Kicking it aside with her shorts, she stood fully nude. "You look simply beautiful..." Rarity said with a smile, before letting her towel fall to the floor. Ginger looked her over and smiled a little more. "So, do you..." The unicorn smiled and stepped into the shower, holding her hand out for Ginger. The brown mare took it and stepped in, accidentally going too far and bumping into the white mare. "O-Oh... Sorry..." she apologized as she felt herself bump into Rarity's breasts. "No need..." the unicorn cooed, holding her close as their mounds pressed together. "We're a couple now..." She then pulled back from the hug and smiled. "Now... Let's get you cleaned up..." Pick dropped down from the fire escape, joining the others on the sidewalk. They were now a ways down the street from the cops. "Alright..." Trixie said, looking at the group. "Take 'em down... No casualties..." "You realize we're attacking cops, right?" Asked Pick. The blue unicorn nodded. "Sometimes, we have to go outside the law to do what's right. That's what being an Elemental's all about." Pick and Blood eyed each other before Trixie and Lightning Dust took off. Mystic hesitated before following, is did Pick and Blood. "This has gone on long enough..." Fleetfoot said before looking at the other six cops. "Open fire on my command!" She yelled, before hearing a grunt. Looking to her left, she saw Trixie tackling one of the cops, punching him the face to knock him out. "The fuck?" She asked, as Blood Rain rushed another. The cops all turned to the incoming Elementals as Trixie moved on to another as Mystic ran up to one and kicked her legs out from under her. Lightning then made the made the mistake of rushing Fleetfoot, throwing a punch only to have it caught. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" The Assistant Chief of Police asked. "You ca't shoot them!" The teal pegasus yelled. "And, why not?!" Fleetfoot demanded. "They pose a threat to the city and its civilians. And, right now, so do you!" She then threw the mare to the pavement, pulling out her gun and aiming. "Stand down, or I will shoot!" The other Elementals all stopped and looked over at them. The cops they had knocked down were starting to get back up. "Wait!" Lightning pleaded. "They're under a spell! They're being made to do this!" "What are you talking about?!" The Assistant Chief asked. "I-It's true," Mystic spoke up. "I saw two mares hypnotize them in the lobby..." Fleetfoot eyed her before looking at the teal mare. "They're not aiming at civilians," Lightning continued. "Look around. They're avoiding them. I think those two mares simply wanted to cause chaos. Not permanent harm." "Not to mention they're waiting all their ammo by shooting at nothing," Pick spoke up. Lightning eyed her before Fleetfoot's radio crackled to life. "Fleetfoot, ma'am," came a male's voice. "We have a vehicle approaching our blockade..." The teal mare sighed and lowered her gun, taking out her radio and answering. "Driver?" "One moment..." the stallion said. "Well, shit... It's Spitfire... and Twilight..." Fleetfoot went wide-eyed. "Twilight?" > Hunting > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spitfire drove passed the cop blockade and parked her car, but not before Twilight hopped out. "Damn, Twi," the pegasus groaned, opening her door and getting out. "At least wait until the car's stopped before jumping out..." The unicorn ignored her and stood in the middle of the street, watching the Elementals shooting up the buildings. "Those bitches..." she grunted, lighting up her horn. "What are you doing?" Asked Spitfire, noticing the glow. "Trying to stop them..." Twi answered, holding up her hand and concentrating. A purple haze fell over the Elementals as the mare continued to grunt with effort. When nothing happened, she lowered her hand, the haze disappearing. "Shit..." "Nothing happened," Spitfire pointed out. "Yes, I can see tha..." Twi started as she turned to face her, before seeing Trixie. The blue unicorn smiled and waved at her before Twi pointed at her. "You. Trixie. Get over here." The blue mare 's expression turned to confusion as she she lowered her hand. "Uh... A-Alright..." She then squeezed passed the police cars and made her way towards the purple mare. "What do you need?" She asked. "Give me your hand," the purple mare said as she held out her own. "I need you to feed magic into me so I can immobilize our team." Trixie nodded with a light smile and took her hand. "Trixie will do her best." Twilight looked over at the rest of the Elementals and held her hand out. Both mares lit up their horns as Trixie let her magic flow through her hand and into Twilight. The purple mare concentrated as the purple haze engulfed the Elementals again. This time there was a flash before the haze cleared. Each member of their gang was surrounded by a purple glow, immobile. "Handcuff 'em!" Twi grunted, trying to keep the spell from fading. Spitfire nodded and got the rest of the cops to go around and handcuff all the Elementals. When they were finished, Spitfire gave her the thumbs up before the purple mare dropped the spell. The gunfire stopped as all the handcuffed ponies just stood there. "We did it!" Trixie said with a smile, looking at Twilight. The unicorn eyed her before walking towards the cop. "Spitfire..." Trixie let out a sigh as Lightning Dust walked up to her. "What'd you expect?" Asked the turquoise mare, putting her arm around the blue mare. "I just thought she'd be proud of me..." Lightning smiled and pulled her close. "I'm proud of you." Twilight looked around as she walked through the crowd of handcuffed Elementals. "Something's wrong..." She said, before climbing onto a car. Standing on the roof, she looked around again. "This was too easy..." As her eyes scanned the large crowd, she let out a low growl. "Fuck!" She shouted, making a couple of the cops jump. She then hopped off the car and headed back towards Spitfire. "Something wrong, Twilight?" The cop asked, fiddling with her shades in her right hand. "We rounded up all your gang. With your help of course--" "They're gone..." Twi said. "They fucking took them!" Spitfire stopped playing with her shades, hesitating for a couple seconds. "Who took who now?" "Those goddamn sirens!" The unicorn yelled, holding her head. "They took Fluttershy and Chrysalis!" The cop went wide-eyed and looked around. "Are you sure?" "Look around!" Spitfire looked over at the cops who were surrounding the handcuffed Elementals. "Anyone see Fluttershy or Chrysalis?!" She yelled. When the cops heard her, they began to search through the crowd. As they did, Fleetfoot approached. "What's wrong now?" She asked, crossing her arms. "The... sirens..." Spitfire said, eyeing Twilight before looking at Fleetfoot again. "may have taken Fluttershy and Chrysalis--" "No sign of them!" One of the cops yelled. "They have taken... Fluttershy and Chrysalis..." Spitfire quickly corrected. "The sirens?" Asked Fleetfoot. Spitfire nodded. "The one Twilight hit with her car... The one we brought back to our base to help fix her up? She is the leader." "There's two more," Twi said, holding up two fingers as she headed for Spitfire's car. "Come on. We got sirens to hunt." Spitfire and Fleetfoot eyed each other before the Chief put on her shades, letting out a sigh. "Stay here and keep in touch," she said as she followed Twilight. "Use phones!" She called back. "Radios are still fucked!" Adagio entered the room where they were keeping Chrysalis and Fluttershy. The room looked slightly decayed and falling apart. A broken desk lay in the middle with a chair behind it. Aria and Sonata had Flutters and Chrysalis in a trance on the side of the table towards the door. "And, how's our two captives?" Adagio cooed. "Under our control..." Aria said as she ran her hand across Fluttershy's chin, Sonata still humming. "Good..." The yellow siren said before heading to the chair. Sitting down, she held out her hand and began humming. Chrysalis' ears twitched before she began walking towards the siren. "That's it..." Adagio said, motioning with her finger. "Come here..." The Changeling stepped up to her before slowly getting to her knees. She then gently took Adagio's foot and lifted it to her mouth, giving it gentle kisses. The siren leaned back in her chair and sighed happily. "So, what now?" Asked Aria, patting the side of Shy's left breast. "We just... wait?" "Twilight will come to us, yes," Adagio said with a smirk. "I'm sure of it." "Oh, yeah?" Asked the purple siren, sounding unsure. "How?" The yellow siren let out a light, brief chuckle. "Well..." Tresemme sat at her desk, looking through her papers when the doors opened. A white stallion with black hair entered the room. "Tresemme, ma'am?" He asked. "It's ready." The mare eyed him and smiled, shoving the papers into her desk drawer and standing up. "Well, then... Let's get the show on the road, shall we?" She cooed darkly. "You sure about this, ma'am?" The stallion asked her as she walked passed him. "Of course I'm sure..." the mare replied with a smile. "She's just my sister..." "Will it be worth it?" He asked as they stepped up to an elevator near Tresemme's office. "Of course..." the mare spat back as she slammed the down button on the elevator. "All those damn beauty-obsessed bitched will finally get what they deserve..." The stallion hesitated before nodding. "Of course, ma'am..." The elevator doors opened before the two entered. Tresemme then pressed the button for the basement. Twilight slowed to a stop as her and Spitfire neared the abandoned apartment building. "There it is... This is where they brought me." The cop pulled out her gun and ejected the mag, checking it for ammo before slamming it back in. "So, go in quiet so they don't know we're coming?" She asked, cocking her gun. Twilight shook her head. "No... They already know we're here..." Spitfire eyed her questioningly. "Are you sure?" Just then Adagio dropped onto the hood with a smirk, hands on the windshield. The two mares jumped as Spitfire aimed her gun. "Well, hello," the siren cooed, running her fingers along the glass. "Glad you two could make it..." "Make this, bitch," Spitfire spat as she fired her gun. Adagio quickly leaped onto the roof to avoid the bullet. Spitfire then undid her seat belt and opened her door. Looking at her car, she didn't see Adagio anywhere. "What the fuck?" She asked, looking around. Twilight turned off the engine and got out. "Make this, bitch?" She asked. "Really?" "What?" The cop said as she began moving towards the apartment building. Rolling her eyes, Twi closed her door before running towards the building. Bursting through the front door, Twilight ran down the halls until she arrived at the room she was taken to. Upon entering, she saw that it was empty. The candles from before were burnt out and the room was silent. "Not here..." she muttered, turning to leave as Spitfire stepped into the doorway. "Well, they could be in another room..." the cop suggested. Shaking her head, Twilight sighed. "I don't think..." she began, when they suddenly heard a crash from upstairs. Looking at each other, the two took off out of the room, running back to the stairwell and taking it all the way to the top. Once at the top, the saw the wall in one of the halls was destroyed. Rushing over to investigate, the two skidded to a stop. "What the fuck?!" Yelled Twi and Spitfire in unison. There, in the room, was a yellow serpent creature about the size of a school bus. It had orange fins and amber eyes. Letting out a roar, it took flight, smashing through the wall as it flew away. Running over to the ruined wall, Twilight and Spitfire watched the creature fly off into the city. "What the fuck was that?!" Yelled Spitfire, aiming her gun and firing. Twilight didn't even bother as she just watched. "Shit... Seems like there's more to our three sirens than we thought..." Eventually, Spitfire lowered her gun and eyed the unicorn. "Any idea where that thing went?" Twilight hesitated before turning to look at the destroyed hallway. "Well... There's no way this place is big enough to accommodate three sirens of that size..." she said, going over it in her head. She then turned back to the city. "Wait..." she gasped, holding out her hand. "There's one place I know of..." Spitfire nodded and looked out at the city as well. "Yeah? Where?" The unicorn pointed off in the distance. "New Horizons..." "The lab?" Asked the cop. "Are you sure?" "Only place with large rooms and hallways that wouldn't feel cramped for creatures of that size... I bet that's where they are." Twi then began to leave when Spitfire grabbed her arm. "Wait..." Spits said, turning to face her. "Why would she come here and not attack us? To lead us to her lair?" The unicorn hesitated in thought before eyeing the cop. "Probably thinks they'll have a better advantage if all three of them are in their serpent form." "In that case, Twilight..." Spitfire said, her expression going from nervous to concerned. "Be careful..." Twi gave her a smirk. "I'm always careful..." Adagio opened the doors to the main office of New Horizons, where the director used to sit. "I do believe she's on her way," she cooed with a grin. Aria was sitting back in the chair with Chrysalis on her back in front of her. The purple siren was using her foot to fondle the changeling's breast. "So, is this it?" She asked, poking Chrysalis' nipple with her toe. Fluttershy stood in the corner of the room as Sonata felt her up. "Oh, yes..." Adagio cooed as she made her way over to the purple siren. "But, despite her interference, we still have gained enough magic to rule this city." "Then, why not just take it over?" Aria asked, tilting her head. Adagio gave a sigh and crossed her arms. "Because, Twilight has so much magic inside her... She still poses a threat and must be dealt with..." The siren then smirked. "But, I don't want to kill her, Aria... I want to make her my pet..." Spitfire turned down the street leading to what used to be New Horizons as she eyed Twilight, who was looking her custom gun over. "Are you sure you don't wanna go back for your friends?" "They could still be in a trance," Twilight said as she ejected her mag and cocked the gun, making the bullet in the chamber pop out. "And, besides... the sirens don't want my team. They want me..." She then pulled the trigger, making a loud click. The cop sighed and looked at the road again. "I think that's why you should bring them along... They could give you a chance to take them out. And, if the sirens are too focused on you... then, your friends could take them out..." "I'm not involving them!" Twi snapped, slamming her magazine back into her gun. "It's my fight. Those bitches fucked with the wrong mare." Spitfire hesitated before she pulled up to the destroyed lab, parking her car. "You've changed, Twilight..." The unicorn opened the door and got out before leaning back in. "If you're weak, this city will eat you up and spit out. If I was smarter and stronger, I could've stopped Surprise. But, I wasn't. Now, Tech and Aqua are dead and Fluttershy and Chrysalis are captured. No one else will die for me," she said before slamming the door shut. She then turned towards the lab and sighed, gun out at her side and loaded. "Alright..." she muttered to herself before walking towards the building. "Time to end this..." > Back to New Horizons > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight flung the front door of the lab open and stepped inside. "Alright!" She yelled. "Where are you, you serpent bitches?!" Adagio's ear twitched as she eyed the door to the main office. She was standing in the middle of the room while Aria still rubbed Chrysalis' boobs with her feet. Sonata was feeling up Shy's ass when she and Aria stopped what they were doing. Standing up, the purple siren walked over to Adagio. "She's here..." Aria said as she eyed the door. Adagio smiled widely. "Yes, she is... Our pet has come home..." Spitfire sat in her car, watching the lab as she tried to figure out what to do. Letting out a sigh, she put the car in drive. "Fuck this," she said, before driving off. Twilight stepped into a large hall, gun aimed ahead of her as she watched for any signs of movement. Looking around, she saw a lot of doors and lot of nothing. It was also extremely quiet. "Show yourself!" She yelled, finally reaching the end of the hall where she found a staircase leading up. Turning around, she made sure no one was following her before heading up the stairs. Hearing a light creak, she ran up to the second floor and aimed her gun. Seeing nothing, she lowered her weapon and grunted in annoyance. She now found herself in what appeared to be an office with cubicles. The room seemed to be the length of the first floor hallway she was just in. Suddenly, she heard a giggle, making her fire her gun at where she thought it came from. "Dammit, show yourself!" Twilight yelled in anger. When there was no answer, she let out a chuckle. "Good. I was starting to think I was in the wrong place." Looking around, she kept her gun aimed at whatever she was looking at. When she heard a shuffling noise, she whipped around and fired. Nothing. As she turned back around she saw Sonata sitting in one of the cubicles, watching her with a playful smile. "Hiya," she chimed with a single wave. Twilight hesitated before aiming her gun at her. "Where's Adagio?" Sonata just shrugged. "Around, I guess." "Listen, you little shit," Twi growled as she approached the siren, raising her gun. "We had fun together but that won't stop me from putting a bullet in your head." The siren didn't seem fazed by the fact that a gun was aimed at her head. "There's something else you might wanna know about sirens, Twilight..." "Oh yeah?" Asked the unicorn. "What's that?" Sonata smiled widely as a blue serpent tail swung up from under the seat and knocked Twilight backwards, making her accidentally shoot the broken computer on the desk. "We can partially change, too," Sonata cooed as she got to her bare feet. When Twilight tried to get up, Sonata's foot turned into a hoof before kicking Twilight hard in the stomach. The unicorn tumbled across the floor and let out a growl. "Shit..." Twi grunted as she looked up at the siren, her horn lighting up. "Silly, Twilight..." Sonata cooed, standing over the mare before user her bare foot to roll her onto her back. "Magic doesn't work on sirens..." She then knelt down over Twilight's body as her mouth began grow, the edges stretching passed her cheeks as she opened wide, revealing rows of sharp teeth. Spitfire pulled up to the hotel where everyone was still handcuffed outside. When she parked her car and climbed out Fleetfoot approached her. "Ma'am," she said, stepping up beside her. "Where's Twilight?" She asked, noticing that the purple mare wasn't with her. "That's why I'm here," Spitfire said before holding her hand. "Megaphone." Fleetfoot eyed the one in her hand before handing it to Spitfire, who took it before climbing up on top of her car. "Listen up!" She yelled, getting everyone's attention; both her cops and the Elementals. "There's a fight coming to the city! That means we need to prepare everyone! We have to spread out across the city and protect the civilians!" She hesitated before letting out a sad sigh. "Twilight is fighting this menace alone... But she can't protect the city at the same time... So, that's our job! So uncuff her team! We need all the help we can get!" As she lowered the megaphone, the cops went to work letting the Elementals go. "Are you sure we can trust them?" Fleetfoot asked as Spitfire climbed off her car. "Yes," the yellow mare replied. "They were under the sirens control but it seems to have worn off. Just make sure the city is protected." As Fleetfoot nodded and took off, Applejack and Rainbow Dash approached the yellow pegasus. "If Twilight's in danger, we're gonna help her," AJ said as Rainbow Dash nodded in agreement. "I know," Spitfire said as she opened the driver's side door. She then hesitated before eyeing Applejack. "They have Fluttershy and Chrysalis... I'm gonna need your help..." AJ and Dash eyed each other as Pinkamena slowly walked up to them. "They have Fluttershy?" The pink mare asked, lightly rubbing her arm. Rainbow and Applejack both looked at the mare, who seemed to be avoiding the team lately. Seeing that she seemed ready to mingle again, Dash smiled and patted her shoulder. Pinks eyed her briefly, but said nothing before looking at the cop again. Spitfire gave a light nod. "Get in," she said, before climbing into the driver's seat and closed the door. When she turned on the engine, she looked out her windshield and saw Midnight standing there, looking worried. The two locked eyes for a moment before the pegasus opened her door and stepped out. "You Midnight?" She asked, receiving a nod from the mare. Spitfire looked back as AJ, Dash, and Pinkamena stood by the back doors. She then returned her gaze to the black mare. "There's room up front with me." Twilight was thrown through a cubicle and slammed into a desk, collapsing to the floor with a groan. Looking up, she saw Sonata approaching her, gripping what was left of the broken cubicle wall and throwing it aside. "If you can't beat me," the siren cooed as she squatted down beside the mare. "how do you plan to beat the others?" "Oh, you just caught me off guard..." Twilight replied with a chuckle, letting out a cough before lighting up her horn. "I already told you..." Sonata chimed with a giggle. "Magic doesn't work on us." The unicorn smirked. "I'm not using it on you," she cooed, before a computer flew from a nearby cubicle and hit the siren in the head. Sonata let out a yell of shock and pain as she was slammed into the desk. Twilight got to her feet and stumbled a little before looking down at the siren. "Don't get up," she said before kicking the siren in the side. "I like you like this." The blue siren let out a grunt and started to get up again. "You forgot... one very important detail..." "Oh, yeah?" Asked Twilight, kicking the siren again and making her roll over on her back. "What's that?" Sonata let out a chuckle. "I'm not alone, silly..." Twilight looked around before looking down at Sonata again, shrugging. "I don't see anyone," she said, before lifting her foot. About to slam it down on the siren's neck, she was hit hard in the side and was thrown into the adjacent cubicle, crashing through the thin wall and tumbling across the floor. "Ah... fuck..." the unicorn groaned, before slowly looking up at her attacker. She looked just in time to see Aria just turning back into her mare form. Her arms grew to their normal length as the scales covering her body faded away. Turning her head to the side, she cracked her neck back into place as she smirked at Twilight. "Picking on the ditzy one?" She cooed teasingly as she leaned forward, placing her hands on her knees. "I would've thought the big, bad Twittles would be up for a better fight..." Eyes narrowing, Twilight let out a low growl. "Look... If you two fuck off and leave Adagio to me... I may let you live." The purple siren let out a laugh as she stood back up. "Why the hell would we do that?" She asked. "The three of us have been together forever. We're not about to split up now." "Then, I'll have to kill all three of you..." Aria crossed her arms and grinned. "How? You could barely handle Sonata. What makes you think you're good enough for me or Adagio? Let alone all three of us..." "Oh, I'll find a way..." the unicorn grunted as she got to her knees, looking up at Aria. "I stopped a Changeling, a Succubus, and killed that psychotic bitch... Three over-sized serpents won't be a problem..." Aria's grin spread a little more. "You barely beat Surprise, from what I hear..." she replied. "And since you stopped her, we're here to finish what she started..." She then kicked Twilight in the face, catching her of guard as she fell back over. "Maybe you shouldn't let me talk for so long... You're getting distracted." Suddenly, Adagio dropped down beside her and stretched her arms above her head with a sigh. "Stop playing around and start singing," she said as she slowly knelt down. "Once I make this... yummy treat my pet..." she cooed as she slowly ran a finger over Twilight's cheek. "we can start taking over this city..." Twilight narrowed her eyes in anger so they looked like slits. The sirens all stood around her as they began to hum a soothing tune. Letting out a groan, Twilight covered her ears, beads of sweat running down her face as she tried to mentally shut out their magic. "Ooo, this one's resisting..." Adagio cooed as she put her arms out at her sides before wrapping them around the other two sirens, her left around Aria and her right around Sonata. "Let's turn it up, shall we?" She then reached down and grabbed Twilight by the neck before lifting her up and holding her against the wall. The sirens then moved in close as they resumed their song. Letting out a yell of pained resistance, Twilight covered her ears again. Spitfire pulled up to the lab before she and the others climbed out. "I hope we're not too late..." Midnight said, pulling out her guns as she slowly walked towards the lab. Spitfire patted her on the shoulder as she walked passed her, moving slightly faster. "She'll be fine..." "Yeah," AJ agreed with a smile, she, Dash, and Pinks following them. "Twilight can hold her own pretty well." Adagio stopped singing, her ears twitching. "Dammit..." she growled, dropping Twilight before looking at Aria and Sonata. "Stop them. I'll try this myself." The other two sirens nodded before taking off, the orange one looking down at the unicorn again. "Alright, Twilight..." she cooed, kneeling down as she put her hands on the mare's shoulders, pinning her. "Let's try this again," she cooed as her eyes began to glow red. Spitfire entered the lab and looked around the main lobby before looking down both side hallways. "Looks clear..." she said, moving further in as the others followed her. "Where do you think Twilight is?" Midnight asked worriedly as she entered the lobby, looking around as she held her guns by her side. Spitfire looked left and right at both hallways. "We need to split up. Cover more ground that way." "Should we really be splitting up?" Asked Dash as she stepped up to the cop. "I mean... these girls are pretty tough, right?" Spitfire turned to her and sighed. "I leave that up to you, then. You're the team. I'm just a cop." Rainbow hesitated before nodding. "You're more than just a cop," she said, before turning towards the others. "Our mission is find Twilight and make sure she's okay before engaging the enemy," she announced. "Now, there's five of us. Who's gonna be in a group of two?" Applejack gave a smile before putting her arm around Pinkamena. "We got it." The pink mare eyed her with an almost non-existent smile. "Alright," Dash replied with a smile, looking at Spitfire and Midnight. "The three of us take the right. Pinks and AJ can take the left." "Got it," Applejack said with a thumbs up before leading Pinks away. Rainbow, Midnight, and Spitfire began heading to the right hallway. As they headed down the empty hall, AJ eyed the pink mare. "So, it's... good to see ya..." she said with a smile. "We hardly see ya anymore. You okay?" Pinks kept silent for a couple seconds before letting out a sigh. "I guess I'm still... on edge from the whole... Surprise thing..." "Ah..." AJ said as she looked over her shoulder to make sure no one was sneaking up on them. "And ah bet nunna this is helpin' any..." The pink mare shook her head. "Not helping at all." "How about after this, we go and do something fun," the country girl offered. "There's this restaurant that overlooks the ocean, and--" "Applejack?" Pinkamena interrupted as she stopped and turned to the orange mare. "Yeah?" AJ asked, turning and facing her, too. "I know you and I are close, and..." Pinks started, before letting out a sigh. "And, we had sex that one time during Surprise's rule... And, it was great, but..." The pink mare looked a little nervous as she seemed to tense up a bit. Tilting her head questioningly, Applejack stepped up to her and gently placed her hand on the pink mare's arm. "What is it?" She asked, sounding concerned. "I just..." the pink mare replied. "I don't... I'm just..." AJ let out a sigh, thinking she knew what was going on. "Still not ready for a relationship?" The pink mare gave her a light smile. "Well, you let me know when yer ready, okay?" "Trust me, Applejack," Pinks said with a slightly wider smile. "You'll be the first to know..." AJ gave her a smile and a nod. "Sounds good to me..." "Oh, isn't this sweet?" A voice cooed from down the hall. The two turned to look, raising their guns when they saw Aria. The siren then grinned at them, showing off her sharp teeth as her eyes turned red. "Well, shit..." AJ growled through her teeth. Aria let out a shriek and lunged towards them, making both mares fire their guns. Spitfire gasped as she and the others stopped moving. Looking back, the cop motioned for the others. "Come on! We gotta help them!" Midnight and Rainbow Dash started to move when they heard a voice from the other end of the hall. "Then, who's gonna play with me?" The playful voice asked. Turning back around, the three saw Sonata standing near the staircase at the end of the hall. Waving to them, her eyes turned red. "Hey, there!" "It's okay girls," Rainbow said with a smirk. "It's just her. And there's three of us." Sonata leaned forward and placed her hands on her knees. "Oh, the silly pony underestimates me..." Dash narrowed her eyes as Midnight and Spitfire kept their guns aimed at her. The blue siren jumped towards them as her body began to change shape. Her torso stretched out into a serpent's body as her legs disappeared into her body while her arms stretched and became double-jointed. Her had also changed into a dragon-like head as her mouth grew out into a muzzle, filled with razor-sharp teeth. Instead of skin, she had scales and looked more like an ancient sea serpent with the forelegs of a horse. Embedded in her chest was her red amulet, which soon became hard to see as she swam through the air at the mares, mouth open and ready to attack. > Save The City > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The blue serpent burst through the wall of the hallway, debris crashing onto the ground outside as the serpent swam through the air. Rainbow, Midnight, and Spitfire ran up to the hole in the wall. "Oh, shit," Dash said as they watched Sonata fly away. "This has definitely gone out of control!" Spitfire yelled, running back down the hall towards the entrance AJ was knocked into the wall as Aria pinned her and opened her mouth, drool dripping from her razor-sharp-tooth-filled mouth. Pinks then jumped on her and wrapped her arm around her neck. "Back off, bitch," the pink mare growled, placing her foot on the wall and kicking off, ripping the siren away from her friend as both hit the floor. Aria let out a hiss and dug her claw-like fingernails into Pinkamena's leg. The pink mare let out a grunt of pain but kept holding on. She soon felt the siren begin to grow. "What the fuck?" Asked the mare, crawling backwards as she and AJ watch the purple siren grow and change into a giant purple serpent. The siren hissed at them before crashing through the wall. "The hell was that?" Asked AJ, running up to the hole. "A fucking monster," the pink mare grunted, getting to her feet and running back towards the entrance. Applejack looked over and took off after her when she realized she was leaving. When the two got back to the lobby, they saw Rainbow, Midnight, and Spitfire. "You, too?" Asked Spitfire. "Yeah," AJ said with a nod. "What now?" "We stop them before they kill anyone," the cop said as she ran out of the building. As the others followed, Midnight slowed to a stop. Rainbow, being the last one out, stopped and looked back. "Midnight?" She asked. "What are you--" "Twilight's still here," the black mare said as she backed away. "I can't leave." Rainbow took a small step towards her. "You can't handle one of these things by yourself. None of us can. We have to stick together." The black mare shook her head as Rainbow continued. "We'll take care of the other two and then we'll all come back for Twilight. It's just the other two are out in the city right now--" "No," Midnight said, backing up some more. "I won't leave her. If we die, we're dying together." She then turned and ran down the left hall. "Midnight!" Rainbow called after her, before letting out a sigh. "Shit..." Twilight kept resisting Adagio's song before she delivered a quick uppercut to the siren's jaw. The orange mare let out a grunt and was thrown backwards. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, Twilight got to her feet and kept her eyes focused on the siren. "You're not as weak as I thought," Adagio grunted, slowly getting to her feet. "I guess I'll just have to kill you." "Yeah, good luck," the unicorn said, before charging the siren. Adagio slid her foot back, getting ready for the impact. When Twi was close enough, she quickly grabbed the mare's neck and picked her up, slamming her down on her back. Climbing atop her, Adagio kept her hand on the unicorn's neck. Twilight manage to wrap her right leg around Adagio's left leg and rolled them both over. Pulling back, she punched the siren in the face a few times before Adagio grabbed her by the side and threw her off. Tumbling across the floor, Twilight rolled a few feet before managing to get to her knees. She then lit her horn up and started throwing chairs and cubicles at the siren. To her surprise, Adagio's eyes glowed red before she fired a red beam of energy from her hand, shattering the incoming objects. "Well, shit," Twilight growled. Adagio put her fist to her mouth and yawned mockingly before firing a beam at Twilight. The unicorn rolled to the side to dodge it and started running. The siren fired three more beams, each one being dodged. "Quit running and let me hit you!" The siren yelled The purple and blue sirens flew through the air, Sonata turning down a street and clipping the corner of the building. Debris crashed to the road as Spitfire and the others piled into her car. "Where's Midnight?" Asked the cop, looking back. "I didn't see her c--" She then went wide-eyed. "And, where's Rainbow Dash?!" Pinkamena and Applejack eyed each other before pointing at the building. "You can't keep hiding!" Adagio yelled as she passed by various empty office cubicles. "I'll tear this whole place down if I have to!" Twilight suddenly popped out from, swinging an office chair at the siren's head, knocking her back as blood started to drip from her nose. "Fuck!" Adagio growled, holding her face as she stumbled to her feet, placing her free hand on the side of an office cubicle for support. Twilight let out a yell and tackled her, both mares crashing through the cubicle and landing on the chair inside. Collapsing to the floor, the chair tipped over. Using her magic, Twilight threw it away before she punched the siren in the face as hard as she could. Hissing, Adagio's eyes glowed red as she grabbed Twilight's wrists and rolled them both over. Holding the unicorn's hands above her head, Adagio leaned in and licked up Twilight's neck. "We could've had fun together," she cooed. "Like how you had fun with Aria and Sonata..." Twilight grunted, trying to break free. Looking over, she saw a piece of the cubicle they broke through. It looked sharp enough. Lighting up her horn, she made it point at the siren and then fly towards her. Letting out a grunt of pain, Adagio looked over to see the shard sticking into her waist. Using this moment to her advantage, Twilight slipped her knee between herself and the siren before kicking her off. The unicorn then got to her feet and watched as Adagio got to her feet and glared at the unicorn. Teeth clenched in anger, she grabbed the shard and pulled it out of her. Eyes narrowing, she charged at Twilight. The unicorn threw a punch, but Adagio, grabbed her wrist with her left hand and pulled her close before Twilight's eyes went wide. Looking down, she saw she had been stabbed in the side with the shard she had stabbed Adagio with. "Payback's a bitch, isn't it?" Adagio asked, eyes glowing red as she backed Twilight against another cubicle. "That really fucking hurt," she said, twisting the shard a little. Twilight let out a yell of pain before gritting her teeth, not wanting to give the siren the satisfaction. The siren leaned in and sniffed the unicorn's neck. "Mmm... So much negativity..." she cooed. "You must really wanna kill me..." Placing her other hand on the mare's stomach, she rubbed a little. "Shame to have to kill a mare with a body like yours..." Adagio cooed, before noticing Twilight's horn start to light up. Twisting the shard a little more, Twilight let out a strained groan as her magic faded again. "Hard to concentrate when you're in pain?" Asked the siren, sliding her hand up Twilight's body, over her right breast and up her neck. Then, in the blink of an eye, she grabbed the unicorn's neck and opened her mouth, revealing razor-sharp teeth. Suddenly a gunshot was heard, hitting Adagio in the arm, causing her to let out a hiss and let go of the shard of cubicle. Looking over, she saw a black mare with an angry look on her face. She fired a few more bullets at her, the siren jumping back to avoid them. Letting out a growl, a pair of red, magical wings shot out from her back and she flew upwards into the darkness. Watching the ceiling cautiously, Midnight quickly made her way over to Twilight, who slid to the floor with a grunt of pain. "Oh, Twilight," Midnight gasped, kneeling in front of the unicorn. Looking at the shard, she gently gripped it. Twilight let out a yelp of pain. "I have to take this out." Nodding, Twilight took a deep breath. "Do it..." Midnight sniffled, upset at seeing her lover in pain like this. Then, as quickly as she could, she pulled the shard out and threw it aside. Twilight winced and bit her lip, taking a deep breath through her nose. They then heard a noise from above, making Midnight quickly sit beside Twilight with her gun aimed up at the ceiling. Tresemme entered a chemical lab beneath her building. There were catwalks around the edge of the room with stairs leading down to the bottom floor. There were four large tanks of chemicals in each corner of the room the reached up to the catwalk. Green liquid could be seen inside. The purple mare walked up to two security guards who were holding back a crying turquoise mare. "Sister," she said with a smile. "How are you doing?" "Wh-What are you doing?" Asked the crying mare, sniffling. "What's going on?" "I need a test subject for my new product," Tresemme said as she walked up to the edge of the catwalk and looked down at the green chemical tank. "It's supposed to give the user complete control of her hair. No longer will she have to cut it or wait for it to grow. She'll be able to control the length and style with just thinking it. Isn't it wonderful?" "Wh-Why do you need me?" Asked the turquoise mare. "Because," Tresemme said, turning to face her. "this was a family business. And I'd like to keep it that way," she cooed, walking up to her sister. "You can be the one who models the product. The face of the company..." "But... wh-why force me here, then?" The purple mare hesitated before smiling. "So far... the test subjects have died," she said, making her sister gasp. "Their scalp sort of... melted.. It wasn't pretty." She then put her arm around the mare as the security guards backed away. "But, I think I've perfected it," she said, walking her sister towards the edge. "C-Can't you wait until you've tested it on something else?!" Tresemme grabbed the mare by the shoulders and looked her in the eyes. "The investors want results or the deal's off. I have a lot of money riding on this and the fate of this company depends on this!" Aria flew down the street, her tail knocking into Sylk, Inc., causing the whole building to shake. "What the hell?" Asked Tresemme, looking around as a light fell from the ceiling, crashing beside her. The turquoise mare took the distraction to elbow her in the chest, making her grunt and let go as the mare took off toward the elevator. The security guards raised their guns to fire but a piece of debris fell from above and landed on them, crashing through the catwalk and knocking Tresemme off her feet. Stumbling to try and find her footing, she was thrown over the railing by a piece of debris which struck the side of the catwalk. Letting out a yell, she fell down into the green chemicals, sinking to the bottom of the tank. Fleetfoot listened carefully as she heard distant hisses and growls. "What the hell is that?" She asked, before walking over to Trixie. "You showed you're capable. I need you to get your group together and go out there." "What?!" Trixie gasped, looking down the road towards the sound of the sirens. "And, do what?" "Just keep the civilians safe. Spitfire and the others are trying to bring the sirens down." "I thought the sirens were just three mares," Lightning pointed out as she stepped up to them. "Those noises sound like... monsters..." "Well, not all monsters all bad," Ruby said as she approached them, hands behind her head. "The succubus?" Asked Fleetfoot. Ruby smiled and nodded. "The one and only," she cooed. "I'm here to help," she said, lowering her arms. "Where's the wolf?" Hearing a growl, they all looked up to see the green werewolf sliding down a nearby building and then softly landing as she changed back into a naked mare. "I'm here, too," Jade said with a smile, waving. Fleetfoot eyed her and crossed her arms. "I'm not gonna have to arrest you for a 314, am I?" "Um... What?" Asked Jade, standing beside Ruby. "Indecent exposure." Jade blushed lightly and put her left arm across her breasts and her right hand over her crotch. "Oh, right... I guess I'm used to being a sex pet and going nude often..." "Just turn back into a wolf, sis," Ruby cooed, giving the green mare's ass a slap. Letting out a gasp, Jade eyed her before nodding. Slowly, she morphed back into her werewolf form. "This city's changed a lot since I started living here..." Fleetfoot muttered, before uncrossing her arms. "You two can help bring those sirens down," she said, before looking back at Trixie and Lightning Dust. "Get your little group together again and go make sure no one gets caught in the crossfire." "On it," Lightning said with a nod, taking off to round up Blood Rain, Pick Lock, Chai Mocha, and Mystic Star. "Wait!" Trixie yelled, running after her. "Won't we be in the crossfire?!" Chrysalis blinked a few times before holding her forehead. "What the f..." She then sat up and noticed Fluttershy standing in the corner. The pegasus was holding her forehead, too, before the two locked eyes. The changeling quickly got to her feet and ran over to her, the two hugging tightly as the changeling planted a few kisses on the pegasus' neck. "Are you okay?" Asked the queen. Fluttershy sniffled and nodded. "I could... hear and... f-feel everything..." Chrysalis nodded. "Me, too..." Adagio let out a laugh which echoed throughout the room. "Where are you?!" Midnight yelled, firing upwards. "Keep doing that, and you'll run out bullets in no time," came the siren's voice from somewhere above. Midnight let out a growl and looked at Twilight. "Any ideas?" The unicorn shook her head, holding her wound. "Wait till she shows herself and give her everything we've got." The black mare slowly stood up and scanned the ceiling. "Can't see a thing up there," Midnight muttered, trying to see through the darkness. Squinting her eyes, she saw a flash of red light. "Oh, shit!" She gasped, running at Twilight and tackling her out of the way as a red energy beam hit the floor near them. "Damn..." the black mare grunted, Twilight wincing in pain from the tackle. Midnight gasped softly and looked at the unicorn. Seeing how hurt she was, she grit her teeth and quickly stood up, firing her gun at the ceiling a few times. "How many bullets do you have left?" Came Adagio's voice. "More than enough," the earth pony shot back, waiting for another flash of red. Eyes narrowing, she focused all her attention at the darkness, just waiting for a hint at where the siren was. Rainbow Dash kicked the door to the office open, stepping in and seeing Chrysalis and Fluttershy. "Rainbow!" Fluttershy gasped, blushing hard as she hugged Chrysalis tightly to hide her breasts and crotch from the cyan mare's view. "Oh, I'm so glad I found you," Dashie said with a smile, before noticing how Fluttershy reacted. "Oh..." she said, before looking around the room. "Did you try to find your clothes yet?" Chrysalis shook her head and rubbed Shy's back. "No. We only just awoke from the trance just now." "Well, that explains it," Dash said as she looked behind the desk. "Because I found your clothes," she said, picking up the pile of clothes and carrying them over to the pony and changeling. Chrysalis gave her a smile and took them. "Thank you." Rainbow gave her a nod and walked over to the doorway, holding her gun at her side as she kept guard. With the cyan mare's back turned, Chrysalis began to help Fluttershy get dressed before she put on her black tube top and her black, folded over half skirt. "We are good now," the changeling said, making Rainbow look back at them. "Good," the cyan mare said with a smile. "Because Twilight and Midnight need our help. They're fighting one of the sirens now." Chrysalis nodded and looked at Fluttershy. "Let's go." "Right," the pegasus said with a light smile. Rainbow then left the room, the changeling and the pegasus following close behind. Spitfire sped down the road, the purple serpent flying ahead of them and bumping into buildings. "This shit's worse than Surprise," Spitfire growled, swerving to the side to avoid falling debris. "Well... collateral-damage-wise..." AJ lowered her window before pulling out her gun. "Well, we can't let this get any more out of hand than it already is." She then leaned out of the window and fired up at the siren. Aria let out a screech and slammed a building with her tail, causing a huge pile of debris crashing to the road before she turned down an intersection heading further into the city. "Shit!" Spitfire yelled, swerving around the debris and then skidding around the corner after the siren. Trixie climbed into one of the Elementals' vans, along with Lightning Dust in the passenger seat and Blood Rain, Pick Lock, Chai Mocha, and Mystic Star in the back. "Alright," the unicorn said, reaching over her shoulder to open the little window into the back. "You all ready?" Chai gave her a smile and nodded. "Let's go save the city." Lightning smiled as Trixie turned the engine on. "Here we go," she said, eyeing the unicorn. "Ha!" Trixie said with a smile, driving away from the hotel towards the action. "Trixie is not afraid!" "You were almost crying when you found out what we had to do." The unicorn eyed her before looking at the road again. "Trixie may have overreacted, but seeing our company... she is confident." Lighting stared at her before raising an eyebrow. "You're scared, aren't you?" Trixie's face quickly changed from a confident expression to a scared one. "Terrified," she squeaked. Midnight turned around and aimed upwards, firing a few more rounds into the ceiling before her gun clicked. "Oh, shit," she muttered, ejecting her mag as she saw Adagio's glowing red eyes in the darkness. "You ran out," the siren cooed. When she was about to fire a beam of energy, Rainbow ran into the room and aimed her gun, firing at the red glow. The siren let out a hiss as she dropped from the ceiling. Crashing onto a cubicle wall, she rolled off onto the floor and let out a groan, blood leaking from a bullet wound in her arm. "No one hurts my friends," Rainbow said as Chrysalis and Fluttershy ran in after her. "Girls!" Midnight yelled with a smile. Twilight looked over at them and slowly got to her feet, holding her side. "You found them," Twilight said with a light smile, before a scowl took over. "Now, let's kill this bitch..." Adagio got to a knee before letting out a groan as she stood up, her back cracking. "Ah, shit..." she hissed, looking at the bullet wound. "You girls aren't making this easy..." "Neither are you," Rainbow said as Chrysalis stood beside her, her horn lighting up as her eyes narrowed. Adagio eyed them before looking at Midnight and Twilight. "Four against one?" She asked, ignoring Fluttershy. "Seems a little unfair, doesn't it?" Her eyes began to glow red again as she grinned, showing off sharp teeth. Trixie and Lightning looked out the windows, seeing the streets empty. "Hmm... Seems everyone was smart enough to head inside," the pegasus said as Trixie nodded. "Seems like an easy job so far," the unicorn agreed before the blue siren flew by and bumped into a building, sending a large chunk of it crashing down. "Shit!" Trixie shrieked, screeching the van to a stop before looking up at the building, seeing a couple ponies hanging from the floor they were on, about to fall. Opening the window to the back, she turned around to look at the others. "Uh, Chai," she said, "You're up. Go up in that building and save those ponies." The mint green unicorn nodded and opened the back of the van, climbing out and running into the building. Mystic closed the door as Trixie drove around the debris. "We can't stick around," Trixie said as she eyed the hanging ponies. "There could be others..." Applejack and Pinkamena kept firing out the window, trying to hit Aria. "This is getting us nowhere!" AJ yelled, frustrated. "We have to get them away from the buildings. I don't want a stray bullet hitting anyone..." Spitfire thought for a moment. "The abandoned warehouses," she said with a smile. "We need to find a way to bring them there." "We'll need to really piss 'em off," Pinks pointed out. "Get their attention somehow..." AJ hesitated, before smirking. Leaning out her window, she yelled, "Hey, serpent bitch! Yer probably the ugliest fuckin' thing I've seen in ma life!" The purple siren stopped suddenly and glared at them. AJ then looked a little nervous. "Um... Spitfire?" She asked. "Drive faster..." "What was that?" Asked the cop as the siren dove at them. "DRIVE FASTER!!!" AJ repeated, five times as loud as before. The orange mare let out a gasp and slammed the gas pedal, the car picking up speed as they just barely dodged the siren. Aria slammed into the road with a hiss before quickly recovering and taking off after the car. "Don't slow down," Pinkamena said as she looked out the back window. AJ held up her gun and was about to fire when Aria fired a beam of red energy from her mouth. Spitfire quickly swerved to the side as the beam shot passed them. "We need to get there fast," the pink mare said, leaning out her window and firing at the siren. Adagio dodged a bullet from Rainbow's gun before lunging to the side, her body changing into that of a giant orange sea serpent. Pulling a u-turn, she flew straight at Rainbow, smashing through cubicles that were in her way. The cyan mare rolled to the side as Chrysalis jumped back. Shooting passed them, Adagio swiped at Chrysalis with her tail, knocking the changeling over. Letting out a growl, Chrysalis unfolded her wings and zipped after the siren. Using her sharp claw-like fingers, she slammed into the siren and dug them into the creature's body. Letting out a kiss, Adagio tried to flick her off. Hanging on tightly, the changeling queen growled and dug her fingers in deeper. Letting out another hiss, Adagio began to fly straight upwards. Letting out a sigh, Chrysalis closed her eyes as the siren smashed through the ceiling and floors before breaking through the roof. Her back having a few cuts and scrapes, the changeling let out a growl and began to climb towards the siren's head. When she was getting close, Adagio reached her tail around and wrapped it around Chrysalis' waist, pulling her off and then throwing her into the air. Using her wings, Chrysalis stopped herself and fired a green magic beam from her hands. In response, Adagio fired a beam of red energy from her mouth. Both attacks collided and created a Hearth's-Warming-like explosion in the sky. Chai kicked down a door to an office room to find that most of the room was gone. Hanging from what remained of the floor were three ponies; a brown mare, a white stallion, and a teal stallion. "Help us!" The mare cried. The mint green unicorn took off running. Once close enough, she dropped to a knee and slid to the white stallion. Grabbing his wrist, she pulled him up without an issue. Looking over at the brown mare, she saw that her grip seemed to be loosening. Quickly running over, she managed to make it as soon as the mare let go. Quickly grabbing her wrist, she hoisted her back up to safety. Sobbing, the mare gave her a hug. "Thank you," she said, before running out of the room. Taking less than a second to smile back at the mare, Chai returned her focus to the teal stallion, who seemed close to falling. Seeing that she wouldn't make it in time and that there was a floor beneath them, she knew what to do. Getting to the edge, she waited until the stallion seemed like he was about to let go before jumping down at an angle. Sure enough, the stallion dropped, but Chai slammed into him and grabbed him, the force pushing them diagonally as they slammed onto the floor beneath them, just making it. Panting heavily, the mint green mare sat up and looked back, her foot over the edge. "That was a close one..." she muttered, before looking down at the stallion who seemed to be frozen in shock. Spitfire skidded into the warehouse district, speeding into the large area of abandoned warehouses. The siren was close behind them and growling menacingly. "Go around one of the warehouses," AJ said, reloading her gun as she eyed Pinkamena. "Ah have a plan." Aria fired another blast of energy at them as they swerved around one of the buildings. Following them, the serpent turned around the building, too, only to see that the car had stopped and AJ and Pinks were leaning out of their windows. Smirking, both mares opened fire. Getting hit by a barrage of bullets made the siren screech loudly before collapsing to the ground with a loud thud. Gasping loudly, Adagio looked over towards the warehouse district. "Aria..." Using the distraction to her advantage, Chrysalis fired a magic blast at her. Adagio, however, heard it coming and managed to dodge it before making her way towards the warehouses. Chrysalis watched her leave, making note of her direction before dropping down through the hole in the roof. Landing back in the destroyed office, she folded her wings and looked at Rainbow Dash. "She's heading towards the abandoned warehouses. She just stopped fighting me and left. Like something caught her attention." Thinking for a moment, Twilight took a few steps towards her. "They can probably sense each other. Or know when another is in danger." She then began making her way towards the stairs. "We have to go now." "Y-You're in no shape to fight!" Midnight yelled, running after her. "I won't fight," the unicorn grunted. "I'll just find a way to shoot her to death..." She then ran down the stairs with the others following her. Making their way outside, Twilight used the mental link to her car to make it drive towards their location. "You'll drive," she said, eyeing Midnight. "I'll shoot." "Drive what?" Asked the black mare as Twilight's car pulled up in front of them. "Oh... Right... I forgot it did that..." Without hesitation, Twilight climbed into the passenger seat as Midnight got in the driver's seat. Fluttershy, Chrysalis, and Rainbow Dash quickly piled into the back before they sped off after the siren. Sonata looked towards the warehouses and hissed before speeding towards them, taking out the corner of a building as Trixie swerved around it. "Damn snake," Lightning growled. Looking out her window, Trixie saw a car overturned with a mare trapped under it. Slamming on the brakes, she looked through the back window again. "Mystic. Pick. You're up. Get the car off her." Nodding, the dark blue unicorn mare and the white pegasus mare climbed out of the van and ran to assist the trapped mare. Blood Rain closed the doors as Trixie sped off again. Mystic and Pick Lock ran over to the car and the mare. "Hold on," Mystic said as she and the white mare tried to lift the car. Letting out grunts of effort, they managed to raise it slightly, though it was enough for the mare to crawl out. When she was clear, the two mares let it drop before kneeling beside the mare. "Hold on," Pick said with a comforting smile. "We got you. You'll be okay." Midnight turned a corner at an intersection before Adagio came into view in the distance. "There's that bitch," Twilight growled, holding up her gun as she put her window down. Leaning out, she fired a few rounds at the siren. The serpent heard the sound of the gun and began to make more erratic movements. Firing a few more times, Twilight ducked back in her car and slammed the dashboard in anger. "We need something bigger!" She yelled. Chrysalis thought for a moment before lighting up her horn. "I have an idea... but I need to get out." Twilight looked back at her and hesitated before the roof of the car opened up. "Go for it." The changeling looked at Fluttershy and gave her a quick kiss before flying out of the car. "Be careful!" The pegasus yelled after her. Chrysalis flew around one of the buildings to get parallel to Adagio. It seemed she was a bit faster than the siren as she managed to fly ahead of her. Smirking, she looked up at the roofs the buildings until she saw one that had an antenna. The city's radio broadcasting center. Quickly flying over to it, she landed next to it and grabbed the base with her hand. When the siren was getting close, she broke the supports of the antenna, causing it to tip over. When he supports fully crumbled, the antenna fell across the street, landing on the orange siren. Letting out a screech of pain, Adagio crashed into the road. "Great," Midnight said with a smile. "Now, to the warehouses." "The warehouses?" Asked Twilight. "I wanna make sure she's dead." "Set aside your bloodlust," Midnight snapped back. "If there's an issue at the warehouses, maybe Spitfire managed to take one of them out. We can regroup there and all of us can team up to take down the other two." Twilight let out a groan as they drove around the fallen orange siren, making their way towards the abandoned warehouses. Sonata flew into the lot of abandoned warehouses before changing back into her normal self, only her clothes didn't return. Walking barefoot across the pavement, she stopped suddenly and let out a gasp when she saw Aria. She had a bullet hole in her side, shoulder, arm, leg, and one in the right side of her upper chest. The mare was breathing heavily as the blue mare ran over to her. "Aria!" She gasped, kneeling beside her. "What happened?" "I got... cocky..." the purple mare wheezed. "Thought I had them..." Sonata looked around and saw no one. Looking down at her friend, she took her hand and nuzzled it. "I'll kill them all for you..." Hearing the sound of an approaching engine, she let out a hiss and looked over, seeing Twilight's car pull into the lot. The purple mare climbed out with a groan and aimed her gun at the blue siren. "I see your purple friend fucked up!" She called. "You're next!" The blue siren let out a yell and ran at her. Firing her gun, Twilight manage to hit Sonata in her body three times and once through her hand. Letting out grunts of pain, the siren dropped her knees before falling onto her side, teeth clenched as she tried to recover. Adagio opened her eyes and let out a slow, deep hiss before looking back to see a piece of metal sticking into her body. Twilight walked over to Sonata and placed her foot on the siren's neck. "Making the same mistake as your friend?" She asked, getting a glare from the blue siren. "Don't you serpent fucks ever learn?" She then raised her gun at the Siren's head. "I doubt you'll be able to block these..." she said as she glared back at the siren. Aria let out a groan as she looked up to see Sonata at gunpoint. "No..." she wheezed, trying to crawl towards them. "Twilight!" Midnight yelled, getting out of the car and running over to her. "Stop!" Groaning, the unicorn looked at her. "Why should I?! After the shit they caused?! They tried to kill us!" She yelled as Chrysalis landed next to the car. "I tried to kill you!" Midnight shot back. "Remember? I was the enemy once, too! Just like them!" Shaking her head, she took a step towards the purple mare. "This isn't the mare I fell in love with. The mare I fell in love with gave others a second chance!" Twilight said nothing as she hesitated in thought for a second, before looking down at the blue siren again. Hearing a pained hiss, everyone looked towards the entrance to see Adagio flying as if she were drunk. As she got closer, her bleeding wound was visible. When she was above them, she crashed into the ground near Twilight and Sonata, changing back to normal and holding her side as blood leaked out onto the pavement. "P-Please..." she groaned, coughing a little as she rolled onto her stomach and reached to Sonata. "D-Don't... hurt her..." "Why should I listen to you?" Asked Twilight, glaring at her. "You've been nothing but an irritation ever since you showed up." Adagio looked like she wanted to attack the unicorn but her wound must be too deep for her to concentrate. "P-Please... We're the last sirens in existence... We need each other..." "Then, I'll just kill all three of you." "Twilight!" Spitfire yelled as she, Applejack, and Pinkamena stepped out from inside a nearby warehouse. "We won! It's over! They lost and they know it! Just look at them!" Doing as the cop said, Twilight saw Aria and Adagio bleeding out with Sonata beneath her foot. "I know you're afraid of another Surprise but not everyone's like her! Think about Midnight! About Chrysalis! Trixie! Over half of your friends were enemies once!" "You need to let go," Midnight said, getting Twilight's attention. "Please..." she said in a softer tone. "Give them a chance. Be that mare I fell in love with, please..." she pleaded, a tear running down her cheek. "I need to know she's still in there..." Twilight let out a silent gasp as her eyes widened a bit. Looking down at Sonata, her hand trembled before she lowered it. Sighing deeply, she holstered it and took her foot off Sonata's neck. After wiping tears from her eyes, Midnight smiled and ran over to her, pulling her into a tight hug. "There's my Twilight..." she cooed. Twilight smiled lightly and hugged back. "You're right... Let's give them a chance..." Sniffling, Midnight broke the hug before Twilight looked at Adagio, then Aria, and finally Sonata. "Chrysalis... You and Fluttershy go help Aria before she bleeds to death..." The changeling nodded as she took Fluttershy's hand and headed over to assist the purple siren. Kneeling next to Sonata, she looked the siren over. Reminded of the sexy time she, Aria, and herself had shared a while back, she let out a sigh and eyed the bullet holes. "No vital organs..." she said with a light smile. "Can you heal yourself?" Sonata stared at her, confused by the sudden turn of events. Twilight was about to shoot her and ow she was asking if she'd be okay. "I... Yes..." the blue siren stammered. Twilight gave her a slightly bigger smile before looking over at Adagio. Scooting over to her, she noticed the bleeding wound in her left side. Placing a hand on the siren's hip and one on the siren's shoulder, she gently rolled her onto her right side. "Stay like this so you don't bleed out..." she instructed. Adagio sniffled and gave her a light smile "Thank you..." "This mean you promise to not be a royal pain in my ass anymore?" Twilight asked a bit more sternly. Looking over at Sonata, she smiled and then looked at Twilight again. "You could've killed us... but, you didn't... I-I never thought what... life would be like without Aria or Sonata... Witnessing this, I... I can't risk losing them..." Nodding, the purple mare looked over at Chrysalis and Fluttershy with a light smile before looking down at the orange siren again. "If you promise to behave... I may have an idea..." > New Life For The Sirens > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ruby and werewolf Jade approached the warehouses as Twilight's car sped off. Eyeing each other, they ran in and found everyone else talking among each other. Looking over, Spitfire saw them and turned to face them. "Ruby. Jade," she said, walking towards them. "I thought I told you to watch Sterling." Ruby smiled and interlocked her fingers behind her head. "You're not the boss of me... Besides... after we stopped the bleeding, Sterling asked us to make sure Twilight was okay. We then decided to help protect any of you normals during the siren attack." Spitfire scoffed at the normals term, before sighing. "Well, you just missed her. She and Midnight just left here with the sirens." The red succubus looked back at the entrance and crossed her arms. "At least she's fine enough to drive." Twilight had her left elbow resting on her door, her head resting on her fist as she drove with her right hand. The car was filled with an awkward silence as Midnight looked in the rear view mirror, the three sirens huddled together. They didn't seem afraid, just glad to still have each other. "So..." Twilight said, breaking the silence. "You three are the last of your kind?" Adagio's ears perked at that before she and the other two eyed each other. "Yes..." she said. "We were hunted to near extinction in the past... only we three are left..." Twilight nodded before eyeing them in the rear view mirror. "Do you... feed off adoration and negativity like a changeling feeds off love?" Adagio nodded before Twilight returned her gaze to the road. "Why do you think we do it?" "Maybe you like it," Twi said plainly, getting a look from Midnight. "We did it so often, it eventually became us," Aria explained. "After all, it's what all the others did. It was just what we did." A light grin then spread across her face. "And I did enjoy having myself worshiped by others." She got an elbow bump from Adagio, making her grin fade. Twilight let out a sigh, and rubbed her forehead with her left hand. "Mmm... I have an idea for that..." Aria perked up a little as the sirens looked at other. "What is it?" Asked the busty blue siren. "I'll get back to you with that," Twi said as she parked the car. "First things first," she said, turning to look back at them. "Where are we?" Sonata tilted her head and looked out the right window, seeing the abandoned lab they've been staying at. "We're back here?" Twilight nodded as the other two sirens looked out the window, too. "This place is your home. Once we repair the damages you made to the city, I'll have a team fix this place up for you." Adagio let out a silent gasp and looked at her. "Wh... Why? After what we--" She was cut off as Twilight raised her hand to silence her. "Don't ask... I may have second thoughts..." She then pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number before putting it to her ear. "Now, for the second thing," she said, sitting back in her seat. "Hey, Candy," she said with a light smile. "It's Twilight... I have a favor to ask. Could I meet you at the club?" Nodding, she held the phone to her ear with her shoulder, putting the car in drive. "Thanks. See you soon." As she hung up, Midnight smiled at knowing what Twilight had in mind. The sirens, however, had no idea. Twilight pulled up to The Wet Mare, parking behind Candy's car. "Wait here, you there," Twi said to the sirens, before looking at Midnight. "Wait here with them. I'll be out shortly." Getting a nod from the black mare, Twilight gave her a light smile before getting out of her car and closing the door. As she approached the door, it opened. "I thought I heard a car," Candy said with a smile as she stepped out of the building. She was wearing a white t-shirt and shorts and sandals. "What's up?" "Hey, Candy," the unicorn said as she stepped up to the pink mare. "So... you know those things that attacked the city just now?" Candy's smile faded as she nodded. "Yeah, that was awful. I'm assuming it's all over?" "It's over," Twilight confirmed with a nod. "And, the ones behind it are sitting in my back seat." The pink mare's eyes went wide as she looked over at the car. "What?!" "Don't worry," the purple mare said, holding up a hand. "They're done with the baddie thing." Lowering her hand, she let out a sigh. "They're sirens and feed off negativity and adoration," she explained. "And, I figured if they got a huge enough dose of adoration, they'd be set..." Candy thought for a moment before letting out a chuckle. "And, you want them to work here for me?" She asked. "So, they can feed off adoration, and... not die from hunger?" Twilight nodded lightly before looking back at the car. "Wanna check 'em out?" The pink mare put her hand on her hip and hesitated before giving the mare a nod. "Bring 'em in," she said, turning and heading back inside. Smiling lightly, the unicorn headed back to the car, opening the back door. "Come on in. And, hurry so no one sees you." She then made her way over to the club and opened the door. When she did, Sonata eyed the other two before climbing out of the car and quickly walking into the building. After her was Adagio, and then Aria. When the last siren left the car, Midnight got out and went to join them. When the car was empty, Twilight locked it with her mind before joining them inside. Making their way down the hall, they stepped into the main room. As the three nude sirens entered the large room, Candy got up from one of the tables with an impressed smirk on her face. "Damn," the pink mare said with a smile, moving away from the tables and heading into the large, empty section where the lewd dancing took place. "Come over here so I can get a better look at you." Eyeing each other, the sirens made their way over to Candy and stood in a line in front of her. Stepping up to Aria, Candy looked her over and smiled. "You're the sleek one, I see," she said, placing her hands on the siren's breasts. Aria made no attempt to pull away as Candy ran her hands up to her shoulders and then back down to her belly. Afterwards, she moved around back and placed her hands on the siren's back, before sliding them lower to her butt. Aria looked back at the pink mare as she moved her hands down the siren's legs, to her feet. "You said you wanted to be adored?" Asked Candy as she stood back up. "Yeah, why?" The purple siren asked. Moving around to their front again, Candy had a wide smile on her face. "Because you're one for three so far," she said with a wink. Aria crossed her arms over her chest and gave a light smirk as Candy stepped up to the orange siren. "So, you are..." she said, pointing at the purple one. "Aria," the siren cooed, putting a hand on her hip with a smirk. "Adagio," the orange siren said as Candy looked at her. "Aria, Adagio, and..." Candy said as she looked over at the blue one. "Sonata," the busty siren replied with a smile. Candy smiled back before looking at Adagio again. "Looks like each of you have a trait all to yourselves. Aria is the athletic one, Sonata's the busty one... and you..." she said, gently grabbing the siren's boobs. "You're the well-rounded one. Sort of the... middle road. Hand-filling tits..." she cooed, before moving her hands to the siren's ass. "And a great ass. You three will have no problem being worshiped here." Adagio gave her a smile. "I have to say, this all sounds... too good..." "Too good?" Asked the pink mare, patting the siren's right breast. "Because there's a socially acceptable way to get love and adoration from others without forcing them?" Adagio crossed her arms with a light frown. "If only we'd known back then..." Candy let out a chuckle. "I don't think we existed back then," she said, stepping up to Sonata. "I think there may have been... brothels..." Aria pointed up, eyes up at the ceiling in thought. "But, they seemed... boring..." Candy eyed her before gently rubbing Sonata's large D-cups. "Maybe if you tried it, you would've liked it..." "Well, we were sort of... raised to be like that," Adagio pointed out. "It was a siren thing." "I see..." Candy cooed, feeling up Sonata's breasts, before giving her ass a nice slap. "Well, I'd say you three would do well here..." She then walked up to Adagio. "Then, maybe we could have some fun together," she cooed as she leaned in. Adagio gave her a smirk. "Sounds like fun..." Twilight watched them for a couple more seconds before turning and walking away. When Midnight noticed, she quickly caught up with the unicorn. "We're just leaving them here?" She asked. Twilight let out a sigh. "They can handle themselves..." Adagio's ears twitched a little before looking back to see Twilight and Midnight leave. Smile fading, she began to feel regret again at what they did and grateful to the mare for sparing their life. She was soon ripped from her thoughts when Candy spoke again. "I have clothes for you to wear when you're not performing," the pink mare said as she began to make her way to the side hallway. "Follow me to my office." Adagio patted the other two sirens on the shoulder before following, Aria and Sonata close behind. Twilight drove back towards the hotel as Midnight kept her eyes on her. Eventually, the unicorn noticed. "What?" Asked Twilight, eyeing the black mare. "I'm still... trying to figure you out," Midnight said plainly. "Figure me out?" "You seem like you, but... you're not you..." Letting out a sigh, Twilight let out a sigh and pulled over to the side of the road and put the car in park. "Listen," she said, turning to face the mare. "I'm still me. I just have a different way of thinking." "But, you're angrier than you used to be," Midnight explained as she leaned in and put her hand on the unicorn's shoulder. "You were so nice before... and gentle... Now, you're... out for blood..." Twilight's eyes narrowed as she looked away, as if trying to think about what to say. "This... This city has no room for pussies... I have to be strong... and focused on protecting the city from others like Surprise." "Then, find a place in between," Midnight said, almost sounding as if she were pleading. "You can be strong and protect the city while also being calm and level-headed. We're all behind you, Twilight. You don't have to do this by yourself..." The unicorn eyed her for a brief moment before turning back to the road again. Without saying a word, she put the car in drive and drove back onto the road. "If it's any consolation... I'll... try..." Midnight gave her a smile and leaned back in her seat. "That's all I ask..." Flora stood at the edge of a dock, holding a picture of Tech and her eyes red from crying. "I'll be seeing you soon, lil' bro..." Sniffling, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a gun. Taking one last look at the picture, she put it in her pocket and cocked the gun. Putting the barrel to her head, she let out more whimpers as tears began falling from her eyes. "I'm coming, brother," she said quickly, before pulling the trigger. Letting out a gasp, she tried to pull the trigger again, only it wouldn't budge. Pulling the gun away from her head to look it over, she saw a light blue glow over the trigger. "What the hell?" She asked, trying to pull it again. "I don't think that's what you really want..." came a voice from behind her. "Huh?" Asked the green mare, turning around to see a lavender mare wearing shorts and a light blue shirt with open vest. "Wh-Who are you?" "Name's Starlight," the mare cooed, before ripping the gun out of the mare's hand with her magic and catching it in her own. Looking it over, she shook her head. "There's a much better way to solve your problem," she cooed, before slowly looking up at Flora as she stepped up to her. "Avenge your brother." The green mare sniffled and wiped her eyes. "A-Avenge him?" She asked. "Wh-What do you mean? How?" Starlight smirked and began to circle the mare "By killing Twilight, of course. She is, after all, responsible. If she had been faster, actually thought things through before rushing in... your brother could've been saved..." Flora let out a shuddered gasp, looking down at the floor. "Twilight's fault?" "You can't tell me you haven't blamed her for it." Flora's eyes narrowed as her hands clenched into a fist. "I've blamed her for it since it happened..." she said through clenched teeth. Looking up at Starlight as she circled back around front to face her. "But, I'm not strong enough to face her." A devious grin spread across Starlight's face. "Not... as you are..." she cooed. "But... I have a way to make you stronger than her. It'll just take some time to get what I need. If you hold off killing yourself, I'll give you your chance at revenge." Holding out the gun, Flora slowly took it and holstered it. "If you can really make me strong enough to kill her..." Flora said, anger in her eyes and hope in her heart. "I'll kill her..." Starlight gave her a pat on the shoulder before walking away. "Glad to hear it," she said, grinning evilly. THE END
