> Batlove > by DarkMidnight > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Night Life > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---6 August--- Princess Luna’s Lunar Guard lost some unicorn units due to some drunken recklessness concerning a Hydra residing close to Ponyville in the Everfree forest, requiring a small contingent of unicorns from the Solar Guard to transfer on to night shift. First Lieutenant Rainy Moon is a young stallion and a part of the unit that transferred over by recommendation from the Solar Princess herself, knowing that they would provide her younger sister the same protection they had afforded her for years. All the ponies that were transferred accepted it without much fuss, until they met the bat-ponies that they would have to work alongside for the duration of their new posting. Tensions between both pony races have always run rather high, but these two units were at each other throats from day one; neither side willing to concede and cease their trivial feud. Rainy’s the only pony with enough sense to stay out of it and just focus on his job, only speaking when he needs to and only returning to the barracks when no pony else is around or are already asleep. His usual sanctuary of peace is Donut Joe’s bakery on one of the many streets in Canterlot, just a short trot from the castle and barracks. ---17 October--- After one of his many low-key excursions to Donut Joe’s, Rainy was trotting back towards the castle as usual and he could hear some stallion’s slurred shouting in a nearby alleyway and slowly made his way down to see the commotion. Peering around the corner into the alley, he saw two of his unicorn comrades berating one of his newer bat-pony comrades and blocking her path. The bat-pony is a recent graduate from the guard academy and her name is Night Wish, one of Rainy’s underlings and one of the only other ponies who actively tries to stay out of the drama with their comrades. Truthfully Night Wish hadn’t planned on following Rainy today, but she was bored and figured her boss might do something interesting. Another reason she followed Rainy was so she could learn more about her superior, to learn what made him tick; these inebriated soldiers had followed Night Wish and wouldn’t let her continue watching the lieutenant. Rainy could easily see the rivulets of blood contrasting against Night Wish’s grey fur, dripping from the three obvious slashes on her shoulder and probably caused by a glass bottle, blindly thrown by one of the unicorns and shattering on impact with Night Wish’s body. Tears leaked freely down the sides of her muzzle, as she was backed into a corner by the drunks’ incessant insults and their lumbering forms. Exasperated with how these two normally respectable and level-headed guards were treating Night Wish, he slowly approached from behind the unicorns. His normally calming and stoic personality had disappeared, replaced instead by an angry drill sergeant; gritting his teeth, Rainy strode forward ready to deal with the situation. He purposely discharged a miniature magic missile into the air, garnering the attention of the other three ponies in the alleyway. “What is the meaning of this, Lance Corporal Yeast Hoof?” The golden furred pony in question nearly landed muzzle first on the cobblestone bricks under hoof, but the other unicorn caught him and righted him on his hooves. “Whazat Sir, this’ere flappy bat was followin’ ya, we were jus’ tellin’ it ta go home.” Rainy rolled his eyes, snorting hot air through his nostrils. “The fact that you failed to recognize your sister-in-arms, I shall let that mistake slide; however, we must address your heinous harassment and battery of not only a fellow soldier, but a soldier of a lesser rank.” Yeast Hoof wiped a line of drool from his lip, leaning against his friend unsteadily. “There ain’no need to be upset sir, jus’ lookin’ out fer ya L-l-lieutenant.” Rainy stamped his hoof on the cobblestones, his forehoof greave scraping loudly. “Your concern is noted, now get your sorry hides out of here before I beat the alcohol out of the both of you… oh and if you wish to avoid a formal inquiry, I suggest you refrain from harassing Private Night Wish any further… do I make myself clear?” Sweating profusely, the other unicorn struggled to salute while still supporting Yeast Hoof. “Y-y-yes sir.” Yeast Hoof glanced over at his drinking buddy, his lip down-turned in an indifferent frown; his eyelids drooping and drool now leaking freely from either side of his muzzle. “I thought we were pals me n’ you, was I wrong? Who cares ‘bout flappy bats anyway, they jus’ make good fodder… ya can’t trus‘em none.” Night Wish made to counter, but was stopped as Rainy placed himself between her and both of her aggressors. Rainy flared his nostrils, the fur on his back bristling in anticipation. “Your personal feelings aside, above all else we are royal guards and it is our duty to protect the Princesses no matter what. Bat-ponies are no different than you or I, they have just as much right to protect Equestria that we do; never forget that Yeast Hoof and never forget what I told you.” Yeast Hoof glared first at Night Wish and then at Rainy, indignation written on his ruddy muzzle and was beginning to feel the complete effects of consuming four bottles of rather potent alcohol. “Well Th-” the other unicorn shoved his hoof in Yeast Hoof’s mouth, cutting off yet another tirade. “That was a wise decision Private Oiled Gear, if Mr. Hoof has any chance at avoiding a formal inquiry and a possible court-marshal, it would be best if he were to remain quiet until I am no longer within ear shot. I trust that you can ensure that the lance corporal makes it back to the barracks in one piece.” Oiled Gear quickly nodded his head. “Yes sir, I will.” “Now clear out of here, the both of you.” Both liquored ponies made their way out of the alley, Yeast leaning heavily on Oiled for support as they stumbled along the cobblestone path; neither one walking very straight, upsetting a waste bin and nearly running into a couple trotting down the street. Night Wish tried to follow suit and began trotting past Rainy, but he turned toward her. “Excuse me Private… Night Wish I apologize for those rabble-rousers, please do not believe that my whole unit behaves in such an undesirable manner. May I examine your shoulder; the wounds appear to run rather deep and could get infected?” Night Wish was surprised that a First Lieutenant was treating her so personally and seemed visibly affronted by the racism toward her race, especially by fellow soldiers; not to mention his immediate concern for her relatively superficial shoulder wound, seems rather curious and unwarranted. Her shoulder does hurt quite a bit though, but she would have to swallow her pride to allow Rainy to take care of her. “Okay sir…, this is starting to sting.” “Please bear with me, I have to find out if any shards of glass remain in your wounds.” Night Wish grumbled under her breath about Yeast Hoof throwing the bottle at her. “How are you going check for glass? I didn’t realize there was a spell for detecting glass.” Rainy gently slithered his tongue along the cuts on Night Wish’s shoulder, feeling for any other glass shards that could still possibly be embedded in the wound. Night Wish’s breathing hitched and she couldn’t think straight as Rainy deftly explored her shoulder, making her moan and soothing the annoying burning from her damaged skin. After being overloaded with pleasure Night Wish managed to hoof Rainy in the muzzle, before shaking her head clear. She blushed when she realized the noises she had made were not just in her head and that her superior heard them, but she cringed when she realized that she just assaulted him. “I-I’m so sorry lieutenant, that… it’s just that I’m embarrassed and I didn’t mean to…” she dipped her head down and took a deep breath. “…I am prepared to accept whatever disciplinary action that you deem appropriate, Sir.” Rainy chuckled as he rubbed the bruise on his muzzle, before spitting out a bit of his own blood. “Good shot, but your technique needs some work and you left yourself wide open to an opponent’s counter attack.” “Wait… you were testing me? I thought you were worried about my wound?” Rainy smirked. “Your wound is still my priority, but I realized that I could gauge your skills as well.” Night Wish frowned, fluttering her velvety wings. “Then why the buck was your tongue involved? What kind of medical application could it serve?” “Even a wound healed with magic needs to be cleaned and I know disinfectant would be cleaner, but that was the best alternative I could think of on short notice.” Night Wish raised her eyebrow. “Why didn’t you just check for glass with telekinesis? Wouldn’t that be clean too.” “That’s true, but magic is never one-hundred percent infallible and I like to have an alternate plan if some villain takes our magic. I have a duty to protect ponies, regardless of my magic ability being compromised or not.” Rainy untied the bandana hanging from his neck and grabbed it in his teeth, then held the black cloth against Night Wish’s shoulder with his muzzle. Rainy used his forehoof and tongue to wrap the bandana around her foreleg, before pulling it tight with his teeth. “Now that is a skill that would be useful, especially for pegasi and bat-ponies. Do you have the time to teach me how, sometime soon?” “I’m actually glad that you brought that up, Night Wish. All the pegasi from my unit already received such training and I was wondering if you think the other bat-ponies or really anypony in the lunar guard would appreciate this lesson to be added to their regular training regimen?” Night Wish pondered for a second. “Hmm… some of my older and more experienced comrades might not like the change to their usual routine, but I think that we can bring them around to the idea if we show them the result.” Rainy smiled. “I appreciate your optimism its… refreshing… naive but refreshing nonetheless,” He checked the position of the moon. “We should probably start heading back to the castle, it’s about that magical time again…” “Magical guard that hallway for two hours, time… I know it’s important, but I nearly peed myself every time we had the guard duty training in the academy.” Rainy and Night Wish made their way back to the castle and to their respective sleeping quarters, chatting about the best ways to introduce the perspective addition to lunar guard training and the reason why Night Wish was following Rainy in the first place. In the castle courtyard both ponies had to go separate ways, but they lingered for a little while talking lightly. “I’m sorry that I forced you to break up a fight when you were off-duty, I shouldn’t have followed you.” Rainy shook his head. “Think nothing of it Night Wish… I would like to know why you didn’t just approach me, instead of tailing me like a changeling infiltrator?” Night Wish didn’t have a good answer to give, but she felt like she could trust Rainy with anything. “I followed you because… because you… you intrigue me, okay? You aren’t like the others… you don’t treat my kind as if we are lesser beings and you show us kindness, but you don’t smother us to make yourself feel better.” Rainy rested his forehoof against Night Wish’s chest, ruffling her fur casually. “I don’t see bat-ponies as anything less than equals and when it comes down to it, you are just ponies like me… what somepony looks like… isn’t as important as… their heart is what matters most… everything else is secondary, love always wins out.” Night Wish’s velvety wings snapped open and a blush immediately spread across her face, she looked away from Rainy before he could make eye-contact. “I’m sorry sir, this is embarrassing… please don’t think I some kind of pervert… its just-” Without any warning, Rainy pulled Night Wish’s head back and made full eye-contact; capturing his stunned subordinate’s lips, while being mindful of her sharp fangs. After several seconds of Rainy’s one-sided kiss, Night Wish leaned into it and began kissing him back. Eventually both ponies were forced to separate and regain the oxygen in their lungs, panting heavily with their chests heaving; neither one of them wishing to ruin the moment by verbalizing their feelings. “Please Night Wish, you can just call me Rainy… sir sounds dated and unnecessary. Tell me… was I correct, in assuming a kiss was what you wanted?” Night Wish was still stunned that her superior had just kissed her, and she couldn’t wrap her mind around it. While she enjoyed every moment and all the chemistry between her and Rainy, she couldn’t formulate a response that could accurately convey how it felt; not without it losing some of its magic. Rainy pulled away, sighing. “If I miss read the signals about the situation… I am sorry, but I know how I feel… don’t think that I will treat you any differently, if you don’t feel-” Tears once again started cascading down Night Wish’s muzzle, but for an entirely different reason. “Shut up.” “If continuing to work alongside me will-” Night Wish weakly beat her forehooves into Rainy’s chest-plate, hitting him with less than a quarter of her normal strength. “I said shut up, you fool… shut up and hold me… please Rainy?” Rainy smiled and used magic to remove his chest-plate, before pulling Night Wish into his embrace. “All you had to do was ask.” ---31 October, Early Evening--- Inside Princess Luna’s private quarters, First Lieutenant Rainy Moon and Private Night Wish lounge on pillows with the Princess of the Night, situated about a circular coffee table; sipping tea and placing finishing touches on this year’s Nightmare Night prank. Rainy had been personally selected by Princess Luna to play a major part in the prank and that for it to work properly, she informed him that would need a female accomplice; for Rainy his only choice was obviously his marefriend, he felt nopony else could pull off the plan near as well. Luna took a sip of her Chamomile tea, her cup clinking as she levitated it back onto its saucer; steam still rising from the piping hot liquid contained within. “Dearest friends you need not tread softly whilst in my company, I know of your lover’s bond and I shall not keep true love from flourishing; It makes our prank even more realistic and believable.” Night Wish blushed. “Oh, please Princess, me and Rainy have only been together for two weeks… it’s much too early to refer to us as lovers… we haven’t even shared a bed intimately yet.” Luna forced a smile. “Please Night Wish, just call me Luna or Lulu… I have grown weary of my close friends calling me by my title… I feel ashamed that ponies treat me so differently, I’m just a regular pony like them… like you.” “I-I’m sorry Pri… Luna, using your title is just a force of habit.” Luna placed her forehoof on top of Night Wish’s own, smiling genuinely. “That is quite alright, Night Wish. Now if you would please continue, I am completely unfamiliar with the courtship rituals of a contemporary romance and am embarrassed to confess that my courtship abilities would be considered inadequate.” Rainy cleared his throat. “Excuse me Luna… we would love nothing more than to assist you experimenting with pony-sutra, but at this present moment we must finish preparations for your Nightmare Night prank… there will be time to be naughty later.” Both mares blushed, Luna going as far as hiding behind her billowing mane; Night Wish on the other hoof, bucked Rainy over and directly towards Luna’s nearly prone form. Night Wish stared wide-eyed as her boyfriend landed on top of Luna, knocking her onto her back and pinning her to the ground. Night Wish cringed, before concealing her face with her forehooves. “I-I didn’t mean to do that… I’m sorry Luna, Rainy.” Luna giggled. “I’m perfectly alright, Night Wish… I can not say the same for Rainy however.” Rainy snorted and his eye twitched, as he tried struggling to his hooves and remove himself from atop Luna’s slender body. His delicate movements were working against him, stimulating his groin and making his cock harden as it rubbed against Luna’s teats and her barrel. Rainy was forced to stop struggling, his face flushing as he continuously receives stimulation every time Luna takes a breath. Rainy’s mouth dropped open as his arousal started affecting his mind and body. “L-Luna please push me away… I-I’m sorry… my hormones… I don’t know how long I can hold back.” Rainy sees Luna’s relaxed smile and stares into her half-lidded eyes, finding them very alluring as his cock leaks pre-cum all over her barrel; while Night Wish stands frozen in place, getting turned on by the sight of her boyfriend and the Lunar Princess in an especially compromising position. Vaginal fluid leaked down Night Wish’s leg as she rubbed herself with her hoof, further soaking her entire lower body and seat in her mare-cum. Night Wish quickly arrived to her first orgasm, moaning and whinnying loudly as the scent of her marehood invaded every corner of the room; rubbing herself more erratically as her muscles spasmed wildly and she kicked her hindlegs, upsetting the coffee table and their empty tea cups. With Luna’s very helpful assistance, Rainy managed to control himself and scrambled to let her go; seeing the tracks he made on Luna’s body made Rainy visibly pale, but it still aroused him further and made his cock drool more pre-cum onto the floor. He swallowed hard, trying to remain and collected “…I-I don’t know what to say, Princess.” Luna was the very embodiment of tranquility as she completely disregarded all of the pre-cum staining her fur and glistening on her hardened teats; not to mention her own mare-cum leaking down her leg. “Nothing needs said dear Rainy, I must share some responsibility for events… I must confess that I am jealous of your relationship with Night Wish… I am in fact jealous of both of you.” As the color returned to him, Rainy frowned. “What do you mean by that, Luna?” Luna closed her eyes and took a deep breath “When I first met you three months ago I knew you would make a good soldier and when you brought Night Wish along almost three weeks ago, I could tell there was chemistry between the two of you; the way you interacted with each other and that you were much more amicable towards each other than any of the other unicorns or bat-ponies. The two of you interact with me much the same as anypony else would treat their friends, not like a privileged noble to persuade or royalty nonpareil that ponies must supplicate themselves to; If I’m honest I am most appreciative of your friendship, but I also yearn to become something more to the both of you… I understand that if wish is unreasonable and I apologize my friends for burdening you with my fantasies.” Rainy placed his hoof on Luna’s shoulder, while Night Wish licked her own mare-cum from her hoof. “Your fantasies do not burden us, Luna… you are our dear friend and to be included in your sexual musings is quite flattering, I assure you.” Night Wish placed her hoof on Luna’s opposite shoulder. “To be honest, Luna… I have dreamed about you since I was born, at first, they were of a filly; meeting you and being a princess alongside you, but when I grew up those dreams became more erotic. The first time I saw you in person was very enlightening… let’s just say it was like I was wetting the bed on a nightly basis for weeks after.” Luna flared her wings out and pulled both ponies close against her body, sighing softly. “My dearest friends, you truly are too kind to me… laying yourselves bare, just to make feel better… what have I done to deserve thee?” Night Wish brushed Luna's flank with her tail. “Well they do say fate works in mysterious ways… who are we to refute that logic?” The clock on the mantle of Luna’s fireplace chimed, reminding the threesome of their prior engagement for this specific evening and Nightmare Night wouldn’t be complete without the Mare in the Moon… Nightmare Moon. While it’s true that Luna has employed the false glimmer of her former self before, she didn’t have two other ponies to make her prank much more complex and believable. Luna retracted her wings and cast a spell on herself, removing Rainy’s pre-cum and her own mare-cum staining her body “I think we have an obligation to scare the candy out of everypony before going any further.” “We couldn’t agree more… Princess Nightmare Moon,” Night Wish and Rainy said simultaneously.
