The Experiment: Part 1

Documented incidents so far: 0

Many ponies comfortable with their peaceful lives wouldn't dare to venture south of Equestria. Down the path of the Mysterious South led to the multiple lairs and feeding grounds of vicious monsters that lurk the area. To make matters worse, the landscape consisted of swamps, caves, jungles, deserts, and ruins, making travel extremely difficult. For the weak, there is no worse place to be in.

But, for the strong and the cruel, it meant a safe haven for anyone that's being watched or pursued. It gave its surviving asylum seekers a time to lick their wounds and stage another coup for the radiant land up north. Further down the uncharted terrain laid a fiendish, malformed castle. It wasn't built with brick, stone, or wood like most castles but with a mysterious substance that was able to change shape like its residents. Indeed, it was a hive of insectoid pony-like creatures that feast on the positive emotions of any and all living things. Each changeling was capable of shape-shifting into other creatures, making it easy to go behind enemy lines and tear apart nations from the inside out. They were a cunning race, but the most cunning and cruelest among all of them was their queen.

Chrysalis, the feared leader of the changelings, marched down the hallways of the alien structure, making her way to a room at the end. The sound of her hooves echoed down the halls, as a slight florescence of the goo littering the walls brightened her path forward. Without warning, she slammed open the chamber door, startling the changeling inside and causing him to drop a vial containing unknown liquid on the floor. The room was filled with scientific equipment: a chalkboard for making calculations, a table full of beakers and vials, a glass case containing rats for live study, and a another oblong object that was covered with a sheet. The changeling was also dressed for the part, wearing a traditional lab coat and glasses with thick lens. The glasses aren't necessary, as the changeling had 20/20 vision, but he insisted that it made him feel smarter. Chrysalis was about to see if it, indeed, produced results.

"Y-Your majesty!" the scientist stuttered in a raspy voice, bowing as awkwardly as possibly. "What a wonderful surprise to see you here!"

The queen scoffed and rolled her eyes, putting her hoof up in an attempt to silence the researcher. "Quit with the act. It's not a surprise if you send an envoy to ask for my immediate attention." The queen licked her lips and stared her subject in the eyes with a sinister, wanting grin. "Now, I heard that YOU have a surprise for ME."

"Y-Yes! Yes, I do!" The scientist scrambled to pick himself back up and pointed towards the sheet-covered object. "It's over here, underneath the sheet, waiting for your stamp of approval!" The queen followed her best (and only) researcher to the sheet-covered object. While she was anticipating the reveal of what's underneath, she already knows what to expect. The question was if it’s everything she could have hoped for?

"Behold! My greatest and latest breakthrough!" the scientist exclaimed ceremoniously as he lifts the covers of in a grand fashion. Underneath was a smaller, oval shaped glass case, containing a small insect inside.

"Your majesty, I present to you a love bee queen!"

The bee was twice the size and shape of the average bee and, instead of having a brown thorax and a yellow and black abdomen; the queen had white hairs covering the thorax and a light yellow abdomen. It also replaced the trademark black stripes around the abdomen for a heart-shaped mark that sat on the top, making it easy to tell the difference between it and a normal bee.

Chrysalis was almost jumping with excitement, but maintained her composure quickly. She approached the glass case and lowered her head to get a closer look. The bee was frightened by the hideous monster looking back at her.

"Well. This is a certainly a beautiful specimen you have here, professor,” said Chrysalis as she slowly backed away from the experiment and turned to her researcher. “Mind if I ask a few questions?” she asked sultrily.

"No! Please, ask away," the researcher obliged. He took a clipboard lying beside the glass case and prepared to give its queen whatever information was needed.

"Very good. First of all, what is the length of its stinger? Can it piece the toughest of hides?"

"I tested it against different materials. It can pierce through many fabrics."

"I see. That's good. Did you add the modification that I requested?"

"Yes, your majesty. Its venom sac is constantly producing more toxins than it needs. It's driving the bee to sting anything just to relieve the aches of a full organ.” The researcher blushed and averted its gaze. “It's much like, uh, going to the bathroom really badly and feeling refreshed afterwards."

Chrysalis was visibly disgusted, her tongue stuck out and she made a quick gagging noise. “Disgusting...” She used her right hoof to brush back her long hair and regain her regal composure. “But, that accurately describes what I wanted it to do. Have you tested the venom's effects?"

The researcher flipped through its papers. "We had the bee sting a male and female lab rat. Within minutes, they copulated."

The queen grinned. “Perfect! Just what I expected. Will too high a dosage kill anything? Will it cause any allergic reactions?"

"No, ma'am."

"Good. Our food is no good to us dead.” Chrysalis thought for a minute on what to ask next, but her face lit up when she realized she almost forgot one other detail. “What about the request I made to wire it its brain with what it wants to target?"

The researcher flipped through more papers. "They go after the hindquarters, as you requested. As you have wisely presumed, this makes the venom travel to the victim's sexual organs much quicker than usual,” it confirmed.

"Hmmmm...." Chrysalis put the tip of her hoof on her chin in thought, and turned to look at the experiment one more time.

"U-um," the scientist stuttered nervously. "Do you like it?" It’s scared to think of what will happen if a single imperfection was made.

Meanwhile, Chrysalis thought about all the applications and opportunities it would provide, all the chaos it could make, and all the food it could ever give her colony.

"No,” she said nonchalantly. I don't like it.” The queen turned her back on the container, and stuck her nose in the air.

The scientist tried desperately to speak, but couldn't answer. He was so taken aback by the queen's response that he stuttered uncontrollably. But, before he could get his first word out, the queen quickly turned to grab her subject’s face with her hooves and pulled his face to look upon hers. Her brow was furrowed with an evil, toothy, monstrous grin that can make the toughest changeling shiver with fear.

"I love it!", she exclaimed with a sadistic tone. The scientist was both relieved and terrified.

"I can see it now", Chrysalis said while she pulled the scientist to her side and outstretched her foreleg in front of her. "We will release this queen silently into Equestria. Steadily, their hives will grow in number and ponies will just be going about their business, thinking that they are just normal beehives. Soon, they will be everywhere, seeking out ponies to sting and sending them into a lusting frenzy. The streets and homes will be filled with ponies getting fat with love gained from they're uncontrollable urges.” The queen released her subject and walked forward.

“Then, we storm the area, feeding on all of the ponies until we are fat with love! They will be too distracted to attack back, and we will take over Equestria!” She turned to face the scientist once more, brimming with malice. “But, it doesn't stop there. Oh, no no no. When we get settled into our new homes, we will breed the ponies like cattle, and continue to feed off of them as they constantly lose themselves from being intoxicated with the venom. We will be the most powerful beings in Equestria, and nopony will stop us, especially since we already have the princesses of Equestria in our cocoons!"

Chrysalis stood on her hind legs, thrusted her forelegs upward, looked to the ceiling, and let out a long, evil laugh that echoed throughout the hive. The researcher was terrified, at first, but it quickly learned to embrace the moment and joined her by trying to laugh manically. What it let out was a geeky laugh, complete with a couple snorts when it tried to inhale. The queen gradually stopped upon hearing it and leaned her face towards the researcher with a clear look of contempt. It caught a peek of her mood, and covered its face to stop from laughing. Then, it sheepishly smiled and gave a short wave.

“Yeah, don’t ruin this moment for me,” the queen commanded with a low growl.

Suddenly, a changeling warrior, wearing otherworldly armor on its chitin, slammed the door against the wall and bursts into the room. Chrysalis and the researcher focused their attention on it, as it gave a knightly salute. “Your majesty!” it said, standing firmly. “An alarm has been sounded. There are 4 intruders in our lair, one of them being the traitor, Thorax. What are your orders?”

Chrysalis was furious that this was interrupting her moment of triumph, but realized that there’s no threat. If they are in the hive, then their magic (if they have any) was nullified, rendering them easier to capture. She stomped her hoof on the ground and shouted a command. “Do not let them near the throne room. Surround them and capture them. I will personally feed on Thorax this day…”

Understanding its orders, the soldier saluted and ran out the room to inform its comrades-in-arms. Chrysalis turned to the researcher next. “Cover that thing up and join them. Scout around for where they might be hiding!”

The researcher reluctantly obeyed. He dropped the clipboard on the floor and pulled the sheet over the glass container. The last thing the love bee queen saw was the face of Chrysalis staring back at it before being covered. An hour passed, as the queen heard many things: the shouting of the soldiers, the screaming of the intruders and, the most notable sound of all, an explosion from above that rocked the entire foundation. Afterwards, the rest of the day was silent and the queen tried to sleep and conserve its energy.

A new day passed, though the queen didn’t realize it. It’s still dark and silent all around her, as she ached from both hunger and an overflowing venom sac. Its stinger dripped small drops of whitish-green venom from the tip, as her abdomen expanded and bulged. Her fate may very well be for her to be created only to die the next day.

But then, the queen faintly heard voices, two voices that didn’t sound like her creator or his queen at all. One voice sounded timid and unsure, while the other voice sounded gruff and mean.

“Is this the room?” the timid voice said, outside of the door.

“Use your eyes, oh glorious and revered leader,” responded the gruff voice. “The sign on the wall says ‘Science Lab of Science: Keep out!’”

“Oh… I knew that.”

“Uh-huh.”

The queen heard the sound of the door opening. The voices are louder now.

“So… where do you think this ‘big project’ is?”

“I’m going to give you three guesses on where it is, and the first two that don’t involve that covered up object don’t count.”

“Oh, yeah. I suppose that being under a sheet would be super obvious.”

“You'd know! It certainly was the first place your bullies looked when you were a grub.

“Stop it, Pharynx. I’m not some punching bag anymore. I’m the leader of the changelings now.”

“Yeah, well, you’re still just a runt to me.”

The sheet was once again uncovered, allowing the queen bee to observe her surroundings again. She saw two figures: one familiar and one unfamiliar. The familiar figure was a changeling, but with a red wing-like fin on his head, a purple shell, and purple wings. The unfamiliar figure was a tall lime-green horse-like bug creature with orange antlers, green chitin, purple segmented wings, and a single wing for a tail. The two creatures peered closer inside of the glass case, trying to get a better view of the queen.

“Awww, it’s just a cute, little bee. Hi, little fella,” greeted the green, timid creature, waving its hooves. “Don’t get cute, Thorax,” growled Pharynx, looking at his brother with annoyance. Thorax flashed a silly grin, as his brother shook his head and noticed a clipboard on the floor. “What do you think a bee like this is doing here?” loudly wondered Thorax, getting lost in thought. Pharynx pulled all the papers up that were hanging off the clipboard and begun to glance over each page.

“It’s not a regular bee, Thorax. It’s a love bee queen, and it was recently created a couple days ago. That makes it the first of its kind,” Pharynx informed as he flipped through the papers.

Thorax let out a small gasp and looked towards his brother, eager to hear more. “Created? How?”

“Apparently, it was a simple process. Take Princess Cadence’s love magic; infuse it into a normal bee queen, and bam. Another freak of nature enters Equestria’s ecosystem.”

Thorax casually waved off his brother’s cynical statement with his hoof. “Awww, I’m sure it can find a place in nature somewhere.”

“Yeah, if you were a changeling queen taking over…” Pharynx stated with his nose still deep in the research notes. “Hear this: it produces more venom than it needs, causing pain and an overwhelming desire to sting, its venom brings the victim into love-induced state, and the queen and her subjects feed on love the venom produces.”

Thorax was disheartened by this news. It wasn’t a simple bee after all. It was a weapon to keep the former queen and her changelings fueled for battle. However, ever since her most recent defeat, most of the changelings undergone metamorphosis. This new race of creatures no longer fed on love and, instead, enjoyed their love of freedom.

“But…” Thorax hanged his ears and head down. “That would mean that this creature is just made to suffer for a cause that no longer exists anymore. What do we-”

“Hey, Thorax. Turn around for a second,” interrupted Pharynx as he motioned with his hoof to do so. Thorax is confused, wondering where he could be going with this. But, he placed his trust in his brother and did so. The bee queen watched as the green bug turned his back on her. Her compound eyes drifted downward from the back of his head toward his slim, perky hindquarters. His rump call out to the queen like a siren song, as she tried to fly forward with her stinger extended. But, the glass halted her progress as she tried desperately to sink her long sting into his cheeks for much-needed relief. Pharynx let out a loud laugh and pointed at the desperate bee, catching the attention of his brother. Thorax looked back to where he was pointing and was shocked to see the queen trying to attack him. “Ah! Pharynx, help!” pleaded the excitable leader.

Pharnyx wiped a tear from his eye and calmed his laughter. “Oh, that’s rich. Says here it prefers to sting butts, because it helps the venom get to reproductive organs faster! Thorax blushed a deep red and stretched out his wings to try and cover his rear. He can still hear Pharynx chuckling as he looked down at the floor. “I can see this bee causing a lot of trouble if it goes free,” Thorax moaned with a sigh.

“So, oh wise ruler, what do suggest we do with it?” questioned Pharynx as he looked his brother in the eyes for an answer. Thorax is torn between two decisions: let her loose, or end her life. He wished that he could keep her contained and feed her until she died of natural causes, but the pain of the venom building up inside made him feel pity for the poor creature. He sadly looked at Pharnyx and made his decree. “I can’t kill her, Pharynx. I never liked hurting others, let alone killing innocent creatures…” Thorax steeled himself, took a deep breath, and held his head high. “You’ll have to do it.”

Pharnyx rolled his eyes and lowered his eyelids in disappointment. “How very brave of you,” he stated sarcastically. He dropped the clipboard on the stone floor and lifted the glass case with his magic, levitating it beside him as he went towards the door. “Don’t worry, ya big wimp. I’ll take this outside and kill it where you and the rest of your spineless subjects don’t see it.”

Thorax was fraught with guilt over his decision, but he knew he made the right choice in the long run. He turned to his beloved brother and expressed his feelings with a smile on his face. “You’re a good brother, Pharynx. Thank you for understanding.”

“Yeah, yeah. Get over yourself already…” he responded rudely.

Pharynx finally managed to distance himself from his brother and the rest of the hive. He was sitting outside in the wastelands, alone. He looked all around him to see if he was followed. His heightened warrior instincts told him that nothing was approaching him, nor was any changeling around that may have shape-shifted and sent to spy on him. He flashed a smirk, and levitated the container to his face, looking at the queen one final time.

“Genius. Absolutely genius. Who knew that the answer to infinite food would be right here in my grasp?” Pharynx thought to himself. “If my brother thinks that he can keep his reign for long, he’s got another think coming. Their ways of love and understanding won’t last long in this dog-eat-dog world. The strongest survive, and our queen will be back to teach this again. Until she does, we’ll be ready to strike.”

Pharynx unscrewed the cap of the container, lowered it down to the ground, and shape-shifted into a large rock to avoid being stung. The queen bee was confused to where her carrier went, but forgot about it when she realized she’s free. Pharynx watched as the queen stretched its wings, took off, and made a beeline to the north, where the food and shelter was plentiful. He chuckled to himself, satisfied with the thought of doing what his queen would command him to do in his glory days.

A few weeks pass…

Fluttershy opened her eyes to the sound of knocking downstairs. It’s a rhythmic tapping, gentle enough for Fluttershy to sleep through, but loud enough to hear it. She let out a loud yawn and closed her eyes again, still half asleep. As her face settled on her pillow again, the knocking turned into a very loud banging! She’s shocked awake as she launched her head from her pillow and surveyed her surroundings. Her heart was beating fast as the easily excitable pony questioned where the racket was coming from. Then, she heard a shout from outside her window.

“Fluttershy! Wake up! I wanna talk to you!”

“Rainbow Dash? Why is she here so early in the-“ Futtershy’s train of thought derailed as soon as she sees the alarm clock on her bedside table. “OH NO! I overslept! Did I set the alarm?!” She flipped the clock over and found out that she didn’t. She clicked her mouth in frustration and turned her clock to face forward again. “Why are you such a klutz, Fluttershy?”

She lifted the blankets off of her and forced herself to get up. Still sleepy, she wobbled a bit as she walked towards the window. She unlatched and opened it to peer downward. Sure enough, Rainbow Dash was looking up at her with a rather annoyed look on her face.

“Come on!” Rainbow shouted to her. “How long are you going to make us wait?”

“Us?” Fluttershy peered down further to find her other close friends, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Starlight Glimmer.

“I’m so sorry! I overslept! Hold on, I’ll be right down!” shouted Fluttershy as she turned to get ready for her visit. Suddenly, her favorite pet rabbit, Angel, greeted her by latching on her right foreleg, spooking the already stressed pony and making her shout. “Goodness! Angel Bunny, don’t scare me like that. Are you ok?” Angel doesn’t respond, but continued to latch onto her leg. Looking closely, she found that he wasn’t just giving her a hug. He’s thrusting upwards in a rhythmic motion. Fluttershy let out a gasp. “Angel, no! That’s not appropriate!” She gave a gentle kick to shake him off, but he only managed to latch on to her leg again. “NO!” She gave a firmer kick this time, which sent him tumbling back. Fluttershy approached closer, lowered her head, and got into eye level with him. “Stop it! Is this how you treat all the lady bunnies around here? You have some nerve, mister!” Angel responded by latching onto her face.

Fluttershy lets out a shriek and tumbled backward. She tripped over her own legs and tumbled, landing on her rump with a thud. She clenched her teeth, breathing through them, and winced as the sensitive, burning pain washes over her. She completely forgot about her session with Braeburn the other day, and the welts from the wasp stings on her butt are still healing. Worse yet, the pain triggered a reaction of arousal, and that’s not something she wanted to have with a horny bunny on the loose. She slowly lifted herself up from the floor as Angel continued to grind against her snout. Declaring that to be the final straw, Fluttershy walked to the door out of her room, pulled Angel off her face, placed him on the floor, and slammed the door behind her. “You’re not coming out until you behave!” she yelled softly. Finally, she managed to make her way downstairs, only to find that several of her pets are mating.

“Ah! Oh, my goodness!” Seeing animals mate was nothing new to her but seeing them doing it openly in her own home, gathered in a small animal orgy, was startling, to say the least. She walked around the frisky animals as she head to the front door. Upon reaching the knob, she opened it, dashed outside, and closed it as quickly as possible to prevent her friends from seeing the commotion inside. With her back to the door and her wings, forelegs, and hind legs doing their best to deny entry, her eyes focused their attention on her friends, who were concerned, annoyed, and suspicious. “Um…Hi,” Fluttershy whimpered meekly, starting to sweat bullets.

“Hi. Took your sweet time coming down to meet us, huh?” Rainbow asked suspiciously, glaring at Fluttershy.

“Uh, I was just feeding my animals. That’s what I do.” Fluttershy forced her back off the door while avoiding Rainbow’s gaze.

“Regardless,” Starlight butted in, “Because we are your friends and we treasure you as one dearly, we all agreed that it was time to talk about your...” Starlight put her hoof to chin and thought of a delicate word. “Problem” was the best she can come up with.

“Problem…?” Fluttershy’s mind raced to find a meaning behind that. Was it a problem with her animals or a problem about her?

“Ev’ry time ah see ya, Fluttershy, ya always have a fresh set o’ bandages on yer rump. I'm starting to think that sumthin's wrong withcha.” Applejack clarified. Fluttershy’s blood ran cold and her heart started to beat faster. She didn’t like where this was going. Her eyes darted between Applejack and Rainbow Dash, who were both giving her stern looks. Fluttershy finally set her eyes on Twilight, who was the only one of the group who knew of her fetish. Twilight shook her head subtly at Fluttershy, mouthing the words “I’m so sorry” to her.

“Twilight… You didn’t-“

“Know?” Rarity interrupted, applying a bit of powder on her cheeks. “Well, darling, if I may be so blunt, we all don’t know what’s going on. Twilight insisted that she's no different.” She closed her powder case and put it away in her designer purse. “So, if you are asking for help, we’re all here to listen.”

Fluttershy tilted her head to the side a little, confused about what Rarity is saying.

Pinkie Pie jumped up in front of Fluttershy and went nose to nose with her. “Fluttershy, I’m not usually very serious, but this is a very serious issue! You don’t have to hide anything from us!” Pinkie quickly bounced behind Twilight and used her hooves to pull on her wings. “After all, you’re friends with a princess! Say the word and they will go to the dungeon where they will never hurt you again!”

“Pinkie!” Twilight fold her wings again and gave Pinkie a stern look. She took the hint and backed off.

“H-Hurting?” Fluttershy whispered to herself.

“Who is hurting you?” Rainbow Dash finally said her piece. “Who around here has the gall to lay a hoof on you?!” She’s fuming at the idea of someone bullying Fluttershy again, especially after all the abuse she took in her childhood.

Fluttershy’s ears perked up and her eyes widened in surprise to what everypony was insinuating. “N-No!” exclaimed Fluttershy. “You got it all wrong! Nopony is-”

“Then, what’s going on? Is it somepony we know? Is it Discord? It's Discord, isn't it?” interrupted Rainbow Dash.

"No! Discord would never hurt me!"

"Yeah? What about Braeburn? AJ told me that he went to visit you. Did he touch you?!"

Applejack cut through the crowd to confront Rainbow Dash. "What?! Lissen good, Rainbow. Baseless accusations is one thin', but don't you go muddying mah family's name!" she yelled.

Rainbow Dash figuratively locked horns with Applejack. "Yeah? And how do you know?" she asked.

"I know 'im well enough to know Braeburn wouldn't hurt a fly. It was just a friendly chat and nothin' more!"

Rainbow went nose-to-nose with AppleJack. "He travels all the way from Apploosa to have a chat? A likely story!"

"STOP!"

Everypony turned their attention towards Fluttershy. She wanted to clear this up, more than ever, but when she opened her mouth, only air came out. She started to shake uncontrollably as she stared down at the dirt pathway in front of her cottage. Her eyes slowly developed tears as scenarios played in her head.

“Stings?! You let bees and wasps sting you? Why?” Rainbow’s voice echoed in her mind. She doesn’t know why. To her, that’s what excited her. She didn’t need it, but she found it to be a thrilling way to help her insect friends vent. “Wait, you get off on it?! Like, sexually?! That’s so stupid! You’re stupid. Are you so suicidal that you try to get stung to death or something? Get some therapy, you freak! I can’t be seen hanging out with you!”

“N-Nothing’s wrong,” stuttered Fluttershy, unable to hold back her tears. “I’m telling the truth. Nothing’s wrong.” She bent her legs to allow herself to lay her knees on the ground. She repeated to herself that "nothing's wrong" as her friends, including Rainbow Dash, can’t help but feel a bit of sorrow for their dear friend. Rainbow started to tear up a tiny bit at the sight of her friend’s tears dripping on the dirt. She approached Fluttershy carefully and puts her hoof on her shoulder.

“I-I’m sorry, Fluttershy. I didn’t mean to make you feel this way. I was just worried that someone might be hurting you…” Rainbow Dash closed her eyes as Fluttershy sniffles and gasps, trying to hold back from crying. “Ever since you've been bullied in the Junior Speedsters, I can't bear the thought of somepony tormenting you. I'd rather be called 'Rainbow Crash' a thousand times than to hear one mean thing said to you." Fluttershy looked up at Rainbow Dash, trying to see past the tears covering her eyes. "That's why I gathered everypony here. I wanted to see if I could help in any way, but I think I may have seriously jumped to conclusions. I'm sorry for pressuring you like I did."

Fluttershy sniffed and collected her thoughts. "It's ok, Rainbow Dash," she reassured. "I know that you had your best interests at heart. More than ever, Zecora’s advice rang in Fluttershy’s head. It was advice that was given to her when she asked Zecora how she might one day let them know her deepest desires.

“Ponies are like clocks, understand? Some are small and some are grand, but many have a different design. Though they all tell time when the gears all click, they are built in different ways that makes them tick. You’re no different, Fluttershy. Though you think you might be sick or are part of a divine trick, I assure you that what you like is what makes you tick. So, for my sake, don’t think you’re bizarre. Do not feel ashamed about who you are. If you tell your friends your concerns, then you will see. They still love you, I guarantee.”

“Thank you, Zecora.”

Fluttershy extended her foreleg around Rainbow Dash’s neck to give her as deep of a hug as she could muster. Rainbow Dash repaid her in kind and helped her up on her hooves. They both smile a reassuring smile at each other as Rainbow wiped away the tears off Fluttershy’s cheek. Rainbow then allowed Fluttershy some room to breathe and to speak.

“My friends,” she stated with newfound confidence, “I’m thankful to have true friends like you that love and care for me. But, if I’ve made you all so worried, then I think it’s time for the truth to come out.” As Fluttershy was speaking, Starlight Glimmer spotted what looks like a bee approaching Fluttershy’s right flank. Part of her wants to say something, but she didn’t want to ruin her friend’s speech. “These wounds you keep seeing aren’t cause by any pony. That’s because, I’m-”

Fluttershy’s heart skipped a beat as she feels something land on her rump, stopping her speech cold. At first, she hoped it’s just a beetle or a grasshopper, anything other than what she feared it could be. But, her fears were realized when she felt something sharp.

“No… No, please. Not now. Not in front of everypony!”

Fluttershy let out a pained squeak as the bee’s stinger penetrated the outer skin and dug deeper down, piercing near her previous wasp welts. Its abdomen shrinks in size as it unleashed a wash of venom inside, sending shivers throughout the pony’s whole body and a blazing heat between her loins. Fluttershy groaned as the heat causes her to vaginal lips to wink uncontrollably.

“What’s going on?” says Rainbow, confused.

“Darling, what’s wrong?” chimed in Rarity alongside her.

“Fluttershy! Hold on, I’ll swat it off!” Starlight rushed to Fluttershy’s side and looked for the attacker on her rump. She’s surprised to find that it’s not any normal bee, but a bee she’s never seen before. Still, Starlight managed to grab a hold of the bee with her magic while it was pumping contents into Fluttershy. She pulled on the bee slowly, pulling the stinger little by little out of her until it was dislodged out, sparking a moan from Fluttershy. The bee writhed around a bit in confusion, trying to sting whoever has a hold of it.

“Twilight, come here! You need to see this!” called Starlight. Fluttershy manages to hold back on her intense sexual urges for the moment and turned to face the bee that’s levitating for all to see. Twilight peered closer to examine the markings on the bee. “I’ve… never seen a bee like this. White fur, lighter yellow abdomen, and a heart on its back?” Twilight summoned a large entomology book and flipped through the pages, seeking an entry based on its description. But, after a bit of searching, the results came up empty. “There’s nothing here, and this is the latest edition of Everything Insects that I own!” Twilight peered at the bee again, this time with a smile on her face. “Could this be a new species of bee?”

Rainbow rolled her eyes and groans. “Can you be an egghead later and focus on how Fluttershy just took a dose of that thing’s venom?”

Rarity rushed to Fluttershy’s side, pushing away Rainbow Dash. “Goodness, she’s right!” she exclaimed as she examined the wound. She puts her hooves on Fluttershy’s right cheek to spread the fur and get a better look at the stinger’s entry point. Around the welt is a red mark in the shape of heart. Rarity tells Twilight to make note of this. “Fluttershy, darling, are you ok? How are you feeling? Do I need to call Nurse Redheart?”

Fluttershy stepped forward a bit, silently protesting against Rarity touching her rump. She contemplated what happened in the past few minutes and how she felt now. “Good.” she muttered. She lifted her head a little higher and repeated herself for all to hear. “I feel…good~” Her friends looked at each other with confused looks on their faces, trying to decipher what she meant by that. All the while, Fluttershy was trying to ride off the overwhelming arousal that’s forming in her mind and nether regions, but no such luck. Her tail swished, her lips trembled, and her clitoris winked. She looked at the bee closely, wondering where in the world it came from.

“Let it go, Starlight.”

Starlight looks at Fluttershy like she’s crazy. “What? We can’t do that! We don't know what it's capable of doing and-“

“As far as I know, bees in hive consists of a queen, drones, and workers.” Fluttershy shook off the lust momentarily to address an issue that’s been bothering her. “It may be bigger than your average bee, but I can tell you confidently that you are holding a worker by the size of the abdomen.” Twilight sighed. She knew that Fluttershy is absolutely right, but she didn’t say anything yet because she didn’t want to lose a valuable specimen.

“Something is going on,” Fluttershy continued. “My animals have been behaving very strangely and, after feeling the effects of its sting, I think I know why.” She regained her composure almost completely. “Let it go. I’ll follow it to its hive and let you know where it is. Then, you can have the whole nest to study.”

This all sounded very logical to Starlight. If there’s on bee like this, there are more. “Ok, get back, everypony. I’m letting it loose!” she announced. The more squeamish ponies backed away quickly. Fluttershy, Twilight, and Startlight watched as the bee is placed on the ground. It stumbled a bit to get its bearings, and then took off in a straight line. Fluttershy wasted no time chasing after it.

Fluttershy’s eyes are incredibly focused as she followed the strange bee that stung her before. Squinting to fight off the sun’s glare, she hovered off the ground, flapping her wings to keep herself in the air, and tailed the creature to its home. She didn’t know what she planned to do when she found it, but her first method would always be to talk to them first. Her friends also ran behind Fluttershy, trying to keep up. Suddenly, Fluttershy slowed to a halt. Twilight stopped close behind Fluttershy with a couple of her friends ramming into her backside. The more cautious of the group surrounded Twilight and helped her off the ground.

Fluttershy could see the nest of the bees hanging from a tree near Fluttershy’s home. It’s decorated with now empty bird houses that surrounded the hive. It seemed that the birds didn’t like the idea of being stung and moved out quickly. Fluttershy landed on the ground and turned to her friends.

“Let me do the talking. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” she assured. Her friends aren’t so sure. Fluttershy may be good with animals, but her diplomacy doesn’t always work. Twilight knew the most recent event to demonstrate this was the flash bee attack when finding a cure for swamp fever. Fluttershy gave it her best, only to get stung mercilessly. Regardless, they put their faith in her, as she was the only one that can communicate with the insects. Fluttershy approached the nest slowly. Looking up at the hive, she noticed that the nest’s honeycombs are similar to bee’s, but with a subtle difference. The honey they produce isn’t a golden yellow. It’s white.

Getting comfortably close enough, Fluttershy called out to bees as softly as she can. “Hello, bees?”

The hive started to buzz with activity.

“My name is Fluttershy, and I would like to-”

A love bee zipped across her face and circled her. This startled the poor pony as she let out a squeak. Instinctively, she lowered her head to avoid them flying into her face. “Goodness! U-um… I wanted to extend my hoof in…” The bee circling around her finally landed on her backside, settling on the center of her right cheek. She’s getting more and more nervous. “... In f-friendship and - OW!”

Before she could finish her sentence, an all too familiar feeling struck her as the love bee, aching from a full sac, dug its long stinger downwards into her. Each millimeter of the stinger going into her made her legs tremble and her muscles ache. When it could go no further, it unleashed its aphrodisiac venom into her blood. It traveled to her loins and increased her temperature in between, coercing her body to release more estrogen and discharge vaginal fluid in an increased rate. Her clitoris winked as her lips became more puffy and sensitive. Fluttershy started to sweat and her breathing started to increase. She didn’t know why, but this sting made her more and more aroused after every second that passed. Still, she attempted to power through.

“M-me and my...M-my friends. T-They wish to meet and understand you…” One more bee circled around her, also with an enlarged, aching abdomen. It landed on her left cheek. She can feel the stinger poking and prodding, preparing to thrust in. “W-we’ve never seen your kind before, s-so please. J-just- AH!” The stinger penetrated her buttock and released its payload as well. The bee’s abdomen shrunk in size as more and more venom pumped inside. Fluttershy was able to stand through one dosage of the stuff, but taking two in a row was too much for to take. Her forelegs started to tremble as an intense heat burned inside her. Slowly, she lowered her head to the ground, unable to stop shaking.

“Oh no! Fluttershy is in danger!” Starlight Glimmer cried out as she made a mad dash towards Fluttershy, hoping to save her from her torment.

“Those miserable insects have stung my friend for the last time!” joined Rarity as she rushed behind Starlight to assist her.

“Girls, no! You’ll only make things worse!” screamed Twilight in protest. She tried to grab a hold of Starlight with her magic, but Starlight shielded herself with a powerful barrier in both preparation and defiance. Rarity joined under the shield and continued their rescue.

“P-please- EEK! I-I just want to ta-AAAH-lk.” Fluttershy’s cries fell on deaf ears as more of the aching bees found relief puncturing her soft haunches. Each sting added to the heat as Fluttershy tried to resist touching herself to relieve herself of the growing lust. She ultimately failed as her hoof trailed downward and reached her sopping wet vulva. Rarity and Starlight approached Fluttershy, trying to ignore her attempts at sexual release, as they prepared to lift her up.

But, as luck would have it, Starlight witnessed how the bees were capable of flying through her shield. Every time a bee approached, a small hole opened up to let it through. Much to her horror, the bees were nullified against magic, and her fears awakened when she felt a bee crawling around on her flank. Stopping at the top of her rump, besides the base of her tail, the bee forced its stinger into Starlight and the venom flowed in her system.

“OW! Twilight! Don’t come close! Our magic doesn’t work against them!” cried Starlight.

“What?! You mean to tell me that I just offered my hindquarters on a silver platter?” protested Rarity as she felt another one of the bees landing on her inner crack of her left cheek, dangerously close to her sex. “I didn’t want this!” whined Rarity as the stinger punctured deep inside her cheek. Being so close to her vagina, the venom took almost no time at all to get to work. Both Starlight and Rarity can feel the heat building up inside, as their bodies reacted in the same way as Fluttershy’s.

More stingers are painfully inserted into the buttocks of all three ponies. Rarity tried to fight it but ultimately succumbed to the pressure. She tumbled down on the grass and laid on her back, reaching a hoof down her stomach. She did not reach her more tender lady parts but, instead, glided over her teats and begins to massage her nipples with the quarter of her hoof. She circled it a clockwise motion, further stimulating herself to a winking state. She also pulled her legs forward towards her sides, revealing more of her rump and allowing the bees more room to sting her.

Startlight was quick to give in to her primal urges. Each sting drove her more and more wild, as she used her magic to massage and part her wet labia. Every time she clit winked, she released small drops of fluid onto the grass, sending a scented signal for the bees to follow. Every time a stinger entered her soft butt, Starlight cried out a pained moan, urging her more and more to finish what she has started.

Twilight has seen enough. She may not shield them from the stings, but she could, at least, pull them away. Gently, trying not to distract the three from what they are doing, she levitated them off the grass and hovered them away from the hive. Several bees managed to empty their loads into the cheeks of the three once more before the ponies exited the vicinity of their hive. Twilight and the rest of her friends who aren’t in a love fixated state moved alongside of hovering ponies to find a lonely clearing, away from any contact, bee or pony.

She placed the three back on the grass and watched as the three uncontrollably pleasured themselves in their own ways. Rainbow walked beside Twilight with a confused look on her face, questioning why her friends were behaving this way.

“So...Are they just gonna keep doing that or what?” Rainbow questioned.

Twilight gave a heavy sigh and closed her eyes. “I get why Fluttershy would probably do this, but it’s definitely odd to see Starlight and Rarity of all ponies to behave this way,” she answered.

“Yeah…” Rainbow perked up her ears and gave Twilight a suspicious look. “Wait,what? This is normal forFluttershy?”

Twilight put her hooves over her mouth in shock of what she just said. Rainbow looked at her as her brows slowly furrowed. “Ok. What do you know that I don’t?” she asked, annoyed at Twilight.

Pinkie Pie rushed towards Twilight and interrupted the two of them. “Wait! Before you say anything, is this a secret that you and Fluttershy share?” Pinkie give Twilight a stern look as she put her hoof closer to Twilight’s side. “If it is, then don’t. Say. Anything.” Pinkie poked Twilight’s side with her hoof when she emphasized the last few words. Rainbow confronted Pinkie directly.

“Yeah?! Well, what if it’s a secret that helps me understand my friends a little bit better, huh?” Pinkie reeled back as Rainbow went nose to nose with her. “What’s it gonna be, Pinkie? Keep a secret and leave me in the dark about my closest friend, or tell me the secret and gain a better understanding about what she’s going through?”

As they were bickering, Rarity finally couldn’t wait any longer. Satisfied with the performance she’s made with her sensitive teats, she reached down to massage her sex. She stroked her clit as it popped up every wink, and her hoof was slathered with more and more juices. Fluttershy looked at Rarity’s wanting face as she pleasured herself as well. A fun idea popped in her head as she moved towards Rarity, getting behind her. As Rarity stroked her labia with the tip of her hoof, Fluttershy bent down to use her tongue and lick her buttocks, soothing the irritating bee stings as Rarity let out a moan. “D-darling. Oh, you really are doing me big favor…” she muttered.

Starlight couldn’t help but notice the two of them teaming up, and found that working solo wasn’t as fun anymore. All of Twilight’s lessons on “sharing with friends” resurfaced in her mind as she approached behind Fluttershy. Fluttershy noticed her advances and l moved her tail aside, allowing Starlight more access to her private crevices. Starlight parted Fluttershy’s folds, allowing more access to her twitching, winking clit, and allowed her tongue to get to work. Fluttershy let out a cute, high-pitched moan as Starlight lathered Fluttershy’s love button with the tip of her tongue. She took small licks, going from the bottom and making small strokes upward. Satisfied with Fluttershy’s taste, she put her lips around Fluttershy’s bump and plays with it more in her mouth, circling around the nub as it twitched.

Rarity tilted her head to the side and looked down the line of ponies servicing each other. She realized that Starlight is left high and not-really-dry. “Gracious, Starlight. Who’s taking care of you?” Rarity moved away from Fluttershy’s tongue and got back on all fours. She walked behind Starlight and moved her tail aside with her magic. “Well, as the former bearer of the element of generosity, I believe that one good turn deserves more than another.” Rarity bent her head down and carefully angled her horn towards Starlight’s entrance. Starlight prepared herself as the tip slowly parted through the lips and into her canal. She groaned as Rarity stuck her horn halfway inside before slowing to a halt. Then, she slowly pulled out a little, only to thrust it back in. Rarity maintained a slow, rhythmic pace as she continued to penetrate Starlight with each loving thrust.

Meanwhile, Rainbow and Pinkie Pie continued to argue about secret-keeping until Twilight separated the two of them. “Enough! Listen, I’ve been thinking about our stung friends. I think those bees might be the cause of all this... sex!” She turned and massaged her temple with her hoof. “I need to find someone who can help remove that nest. Maybe even performs some tests on the bees to find out what they do and where they came from. I’ll need to contact Celestia. She’ll know what to do.” Twilight turned to Rainbow Dash and pointed at her with her hoof. “Rainbow Dash, keep on eye on these three and let the venom run its course. Make sure nopony sees any of this.” She focused on Applejack and then Pinkie Pie. “That goes for all of you. Split up and deny the area. Tell anypony who wandered here to turn back.” Without waiting for a word of confirmation, Twilight used her magic to teleport away from the scene of the threesome, possibly back to her castle.

“Well, she sure is takin’ this seriously. But, how’re we suppose t’ focus with these three getting into it?” asked Applejack.

“I dunno, but it might turn into a foursome pretty soon.” Rainbow said with a smirk.

“Rainbow, no. Yer gonna keep an eye on ‘em like Twilight said.” Applejack protested, pointing at the three ponies.

“How is joining in not keeping an eye on them?”

Applejack squinted at Rainbow Dash, giving her a stern look. “... Jus’ stay out of it, ok?” Applejack turned from Rainbow to split up and search for ponies that might come their way. Pinkie Pie does the same with a shrug and tried not to join the fun as well. Rainbow, on the other hand, kept a close eye on the love-infested trio. A really close eye.

Fluttershy couldn’t help but look at the duo now behind her. She missed tending to Rarity and hoped to give her more than just a few licks. “Rarity…” She squeaked as she regretfully pulled away from Starlight’s lips with a slight pop. “As the former bearer of the element of Kindness, it’s my pleasure to do what’s right for the sake of my friends.” Fluttershy moved behind Rarity and pulled her curly tail to the side. She recieved an eyeful of Rarity’s delicate posterior as she took in the image of Rarity’s rump peppered with bee stings. After being sufficiently hot and bothered, she moved in to give Rarity’s sex a quick kiss with her lips and extends her tongue to begin her work. It’s a little difficult with Rarity moving her body back and forth to pump her horn in Starlight, but Fluttershy managed to keep her face buried between Rarity’s cheeks, digging her tongue down Rarity’s love tunnel. It danced and slathered inside, sparking a loving moan from Rarity. Fluttershy managed to cover as much of Rarity’s vaginal walls as she can reach with her saliva.

Starlight moaned and grunted with each thrust put into her. She bent down to reach past her stomach and rub her winking clit as Rarity’s horn continues to intrude her personal crevices. “W-well,” Starlight stuttered, “As the f-former bearer of no elements in particular, I’m just gonna… t-take all you can give me~” This statement gave Rarity a chuckle as she increased her pace. The horn managed to repeatedly hit Starlight’s g-spot, making her body instinctively grind and ride along Rarity’s horn movements. Rarity’s quicken pace also moved her body more and more, as Fluttershy kept her tongue buried inside her. The venom of the love bees coursed through each of them, heightening their senses as each touch, lick, and thrust was intensified.

Starlight can feel the pressure building up inside her. Her muscles contracted as Rarity’s horn continued to hit all the right buttons. “R-Rarity… I’m c-coming…” she announced.

“Come for me, darling… I-I’m close as well. F-Fluttershy is a… miracle worker~” responded Rarity as Starlight grinded on her horn some more. Starlight’s moans grew louder as she came closer and closer to her release. Her vaginal muscles squeezed and hugged around Rarity’s horn as more fluid gushed from the well-pleased mare, splashing all over Rarity’s horn and forehead. Rarity’s response to this is an orgasm of her own, tightening around Fluttershy’s mouth and drenching her lips with Rarity’s juices. It oozed down her tongue as she licked around her lips, savoring the flavor of her best friend.

Rarity pulled her horn out of Starlight as they both collapsed onto the grass. They laid on their sides, breathing heavily as the effects of the love bee’s venom rapidly deteriorated. Fluttershy was still standing behind the two with her face drenched in Rarity’s juices. Her eyes stared downwards towards Rarity’s behind, staring at the welts that are sprinkled all over her. Fluttershy’s heart started to beat faster at the thought of more of those stingers puncturing her own behind, thrusting their way in and giving her a burning sensation that can’t be replicated by anything else. The thought of this caused her to turn from the exhausted group and run, run toward the love bee hive that stung her once before. Rainbow Dash stopped her own private session from watching the two and called out to her. “Hey! Where are you going?!” she yelled as she managed to stop what she’s doing and follow her. Flying a lot faster than her, she managed to catch her and pin her down to the ground as softly as she possibly could, which is still pretty rough.

“What do you think you are doing?! Those bees didn’t listen to you the first time!” yelled Rainbow Dash. Fluttershy struggled to escape from Rainbows hold, but to no avail.

“Let me go, Dash! Ineed this!” Fluttershy yelled out in protest.

“Need what? The bees stinging you again?”

“Yes!”

“What? What the hay is wrong with you?”

“There’s a lot wrong with me, Dash! I’ve had this for a long time.” Fluttershy stopped struggling and looks Rainbow Dash in the eyes. “I’m what Twilight calls a mellisophile.”

Rainbow Dash tilted her head in confusion. “A mel-lis-what now?”

Fluttershy shot Rainbow Dash an angry look. Whether it was the ruining of the moment or the subsiding of the love bee venom, or both, her desire for pleasure is now gone. Now was the time for the moment of truth.

“Bee stings, Dash! I’m addicted to bee stings! I use them to satisfy my own sexual urges! Not just bees, either! I’ve had wasps and scorpions sting me, too! That’s why I’m covered in bandages sometimes! It’s not because of anypony hurting me! I hurt myself!” Fluttershy’s angry face started to melt away as her eyes started to tear up. “I didn’t want to tell any of you because you would think of me as a freak, but I didn’t want you to think that I was being hurt.” Fluttershy started to sniffle and hiccup a bit. “So… That’s why…”

Rainbow Dash stared back at her with her mouth wide open. It took her a minute to fully process what was said to her. Rainbow slowly lifted herself off Fluttershy as the yellow pegasus got her back off the grass and sitting up. “Wow… That’s… what?” Rainbow stumbled through her words as Fluttershy averted her eyes, hiding behind her long mane. Rainbow sat down to think long and hard about what was said to her as her eyes glanced back and forth to Fluttershy and the tree where the love bee nest is. “Huh…” Rainbow sat in silence as tears started to well up a bit her eyes. She started to giggle a bit to herself, then it becomes a little louder for Fluttershy to hear. She peeked through her hair as Rainbow's laugh became louder. “Oh, geez! You really had me worried there for a second. Boy, was I ever off.”

Fluttershy turned her head slightly towards Rainbow Dash. “You… You aren’t mad?” she asked softly.

“I’m slightly confused, but I’m not mad. I’m more happy that nopony is hurting you.” Rainbow reassured as her giggles died down. “But, I gotta ask, what’s so erotic about bee stings?”

Fluttershy turned away from Rainbow again. “I-I don’t know. I just do… The different, exotic pain that shoots up in me… Every time I feel it, I start to get… wet.” Fluttershy whispered the last word of her sentence, but Rainbow catches it.

“Huh… You know, you aren’t the only pony that likes that kind of stuff.” said Rainbow, catching the attention of her closest friend. Fluttershy gasped and whipped her head around to make eye contact with Rainbow again.

“R-Really?” Fluttershy lit up on this news, hoping to hear more.

“Well, yeah. Heh. You know Spitfire? Well, ironically, her fetish is known to involve fire.”

“Fire?”

“Yeah! She actually likes to take bit of hot iron, heat it over a candle, and burns her butt and sometimes her privates (and I’m not talking about rank) with it before it cools. She said that it’s gratifying in a way that she can’t explain. So, everypony in the Wonderbolts has a personal nickname, right? Well, hers is ‘Butt On Fire’.”

Fluttershy couldn’t help but laugh out loud at this. She’s both relieved and amused by the fact that she’s not the only one with a strange kink. She slowly lost her laugh and her face grew more concerned. “So… You don’t think I’m a freak and never want to see me again?”

Rainbow sputtered with her lips and rolls her eyes. “Pfft, no! I mean, yeah, what you do is weird, no pony is ever going to deny that. However, that’s not going to stop us from being friends.”

Fluttershy is overjoyed by this answer. Zecora was right all along and she almost wished that she told Rainbow sooner. Fluttershy wrapped her forelegs around Rainbow Dash and hugged her tightly. “Oh, thank you so, so, so much for understanding. You don’t know how worried I was on how you would probably hate me.”
Rainbow Dash gave a slight grunt from being hugged too tight. “H-hey, what kind of a friend would I be if I did that? But, don’t telling that to other ponies willy-nilly. They may not understand. Just keep the bee sting stuff to yourself, ok?”

“Promise!”

“Good.”

Fluttershy let Rainbow escape from her embrace as they both give each other an understanding smile. Rainbow heard a voice behind her and found that Twilight was back to check up on the group, along with none other than Princess Celestia. Rainbow gasped and turned to whisper to Fluttershy. “Ok! Don’t panic, but Princess Celestia is here!” Fluttershy looked over Rainbow's shoulder and found that Celestia was heading their way. She gave a small gasp. “It’s ok. Play it cool,” assured Rainbow. They got up from the grass, turned to Celestia, and gave a small bow.

“Oh! Hmmhm. No need for that we are all among friends here.” stated the graceful princess, humbled by their gesture. Celestia turned and looked at the hive from faraway. “So, these are the bees that have been give you trouble, hm?”

“Yes, your highness. I believe that they’ve been stinging my animals and driving them to… mate.” Fluttershy said with a bit of embarrassment in her voice. “Er... I’ve tried talking to them, but they just won’t listen like the other bees do.”

“Not only that,” adds Twilight as she walks beside Celestia, “they are able to pass through protective spells!”

“Are you able to hold and levitate them with magic individually?” asks Celestia. Twilight thinks back on how Starlight was able to hold one in place.

“Yes, they can.”

Celestia chuckled a bit. “So, defensive spells are worthless against them, but we can still use basic levitation. Interesting.” Celestia thought as she puts all the pieces together. “An insect that causes creatures to have excess love with magical nullification to pierce any barrier. Sounds to me like that would be useful for a race of creatures that like to infiltrate from the inside out and feed on the love the bees produce. Right?”

Twilight gasped at what the princess is deducting. “You don’t think Chrysalis is behind this, do you?”

“Only one way to find out. I’ll contact King Thorax and ask him if any of this sounds familiar. Until then, I’m calling a monster hunting agency to contain and quarantine this hive.”

“You aren’t going to hurt them, are you?” asks Fluttershy, growing more and more concerned about her new insect “friends”.

Celestia gave Fluttershy a sad smile and shook her head. “I can’t promise thatallof the bees will be ok.” She turned to face the hive again. “The top researchers in Canterlot will likely dissect a few of them to get a better understanding of their physiology.” She lowered her head. “Even then… if they are too dangerous… They need to be wiped out entirely.”

Fluttershy hugged the right foreleg of the princess, tugging at her. Celestia extended her wings in shock and looked down at the pleading pony. “You can’t kill them, Princess!” Fluttershy begged. “They are living creatures, too. There must be a way for them live peacefully with us…” Tears started to form in the yellow pony’s eyes again. Celestia couldn’t help but pity Fluttershy as she looked towards the nest again.

“I hope there is… Our tests will have to reveal the answer for us…” She looked down at Fluttershy again with a gentle smile. “Tests that you will hopefully help us with.”

“Ms. Cloud Shaper? You’re up next.”

Fluttershy watched another pony stand up from her seat and trot over to the double doors, where the apathetic nurse called out to her in a monotone, droning voice.

“Oh dear… I thought that Canterlot’s nurses would be more… kind than that. I wonder what her problem is?” wondered Fluttershy as she sat on a plush, yet not very comfortable chair. She took another look around the room she’s in while she’s patiently waiting for her name to be called next. Her eyes caught a poster across the room, promoting the hospital she’s in. The fully-draped surgeon on it was pointing towards the viewer with his hoof, stating the quote underneath “Put your trust in the best, and put your fears to rest". It even had the Canterlot Central Hospital logo and everything. It’s about as generic as an uplifting poster could be, but it got the job done.

Directly in front of her was a table with a stack of magazines on top of it. None of it seemed very interesting to her. All they covered was the latest fashions and trends, with no nature, animal, or sewing magazines to speak of. To her right was a poor stallion with a cast on his right foreleg. Hopefully, he’s here to have it removed. He noticed Fluttershy looking and flashed a polite smile. Fluttershy shyly smiled and turns her head away. To her left is a mother and colt, a business pony, and a pony a few more chairs down that’s constantly blowing his nose. Fluttershy makes a mental note to stay far away from him. In fact, she wondered where the hoof sanitizers are.

“Ms. Fluttershy? You’re up next.”

That’s her! Fluttershy lifted herself up from her seat and passed by the colt complaining on being here, the impatient business pony that’s sore that his name wasn’t called, and far, far away from the sick pony. She approached the nurse, waiting on further instructions.

“This way, please,” the nurse droned as she turned to walk down the hallway. Fluttershy followed her, getting a little nervous about the quality of care in this hospital. She hoped that the doctor isn’t as surly as the nurse.

After walking several doors down, filling her head with patients either in pain or resting, Fluttershy stopped as the nurse opened a door and backed away from it.

“You’ll be waiting here for a few more minutes until the doctor is ready,” the nurse rehearsed, pointing to the room and directing Fluttershy to go inside.

“More waiting?” Fluttershy thought as a visible look of concern formed on her face. She did what she’s told and entered the room as the nurse closed the door behind her. Fluttershy noticed the hard looking bed with the thin paper draped on it. She climbed on top of it and sat patiently, taking in her new surroundings. It’s certainly a lot bigger than she imagined, with a counter stretched across the room housing many medical supplies. There were even some of those tongue depressors that she liked so much as a filly. Although it’s gross to think about now, she believed, back then, that they were used popsicle sticks, and that she might get one that tasted like cherries.

She was an odd filly.

The door opened, startling Fluttershy from her train of thought. A pony with a dark pink coat, a long, hanging white mane, and pink highlights walked in with a stethoscope around her neck, a doctor’s coat on, and a clipboard in her hoof. She broke away from reading the files on the clipboard to look at Fluttershy with her blue eyes and flash her a smile. Fluttershy was relieved to see a pony smiling at her, even if she may or may not be faking it.

“Hello, Ms. Fluttershy. I’m Dr. Heartbeat. I’ve been looking forward to meeting you, especially since Princess Celestia sent you here personally to see me,” she gushed a little and cleared her throat.

“Oh! Well, it’s nice to meet you, too, Doctor.” Fluttershy said rather softly. “Um, so, what exactly will we be doing during my visit?”

“Just a standard check-up, nothing serious.” Heartbeat closed the door and hoped that no one was coming. She got closer to Fluttershy and began to whisper. “A case of some of those love bees were dropped of at the lab. We don’t want the public to know about this new type of insect, but we still need to perform some live tests on them just to be safe.”

Fluttershy’s heart skipped a beat. Love bees? Here at the hospital? What did Princess Celestia intend to do with Fluttershy anyway? “U-um, then, h-how?” Fluttershy calmed her nerves a bit. “W-What does that have to do with me?”

Heartbeat looked at her file one more time to reconfirm that this was the right patient. “It says here you are capable with communicating with all sorts of animals, yes?”

“U-um...Yes?”

“It also says that you have a... long history with insect stings, correct?”

“What?! How does she have that kind of information?!” Fluttershy thought as her blood flushed from her face, ready to die in embarrassment.

Dr. Heartbeat noticed Fluttershy’s shocked expression and attempted to put her at ease. “Oh, don’t worry, Ms. Fluttershy!” she said. “All of this information is strictly confidential! I’m just relaying what I was told.”

“Told by whom?” Fluttershy continued thinking with her eyes darting around to piece it all together.“Celestia? Is that why I was called here? She couldn’t have known that...Unless…?” Fluttershy let out a gasp as she figured out who might have told her. Heartbeat immediately was concerned for her well-being.

“What’s the matter, Fluttershy! Are you ok?” she asked. Fluttershy closed her eyes as her brow furrowed. The secret’s out in the open, now. No way to get out of this one gracefully.

“When I come back to Ponyville, Twilight and I are going to have a serious talk about secret-keeping.” She opened her eyes, took a deep breath and tried to be friendly. “Yes,” she assures. “I’m fine. And yes, it’s all true.”

“Interesting… May I ask what you’ve been stung by previously, for the record?” asked Heartbeat, trying to be as gentle as possible.

“Well, let’s see.” Fluttershy searched through her mental history and listed as many insects as she could. “There’s the love bees, of course. I’ve also been stung by paper wasps, red wasps, bumblebees, carpenter bees, flash bees, one honey bee that was very sick and wanted to know what it felt like, velvet ants, fire ants, mud daubers, yellow jackets, bald-faced hornets.” Fluttershy stopped to catch her breath and continued. “Bloat bees, jewel wasps, bullet ants, tarantula hawks, emperor scorpions, bark scorpions, cicada killers, and needle ants. That’s all, I think…”

Fluttershy doubled back at the sight of Dr. Heartbeat’s face. Her jaw was hanging with her pupils shrunk, trying to process it all. “I-I’m sorry. Is that too much?” Fluttershy whispered. Heartbeat snapped out of it and cleared her throat. “Well, I’m… sure you have your reasons. Uh, let’s begin the examination.” She trotted over to the medical supply cabinet besides the counter and took out a long wrapped object, rubbing alcohol, and a rubber strap. She placed the alcohol and rubber strap on the bed besides Fluttershy and unwrapped the long object. Fluttershy’s curiosity turned into horror as object revealed itself to be a hypodermic needle.

“N-no!” blurted out Fluttershy. “P-please, no needles!” Fluttershy backed away as much as she could from Heartbeat. The doctor was taken aback by her reaction.

“Huh? But…” Heartbeat tried to wrap her head around this unexpected turn of events. “I thought that it would be ok to get this out of the way, since...you know.”

Fluttershy extended her wings and hid her face behind them, visibly shaking at the sight of the needle. “I-it’s different than t-that…” she stuttered. “T-those stingers are u-usually so cute and small. But, that thing looks…” Fluttershy peeked from behind her feathers and gasped at the sight of it again. “Enormous!”

The doctor thought for a minute. “Yes, but this is a sterile, clean, helpful needle. It’s different than living creatures pumping venom into you.”

“I don’t care! I don’t want that thing in me!” Fluttershy cried out. Dr. Heartbeat rolled her eyes and let out a sigh.

“Come on, Fluttershy~” Heartbeat sang with a voice as sweet she can possibly muster. “I always tell the little ones to pretend like it’s a bee sting. I’m sure you can, too.”

Fluttershy lowered her wings to get a better look at Dr. Heartbeat, who was smiling as wide as she possibly can. “And that calms them down?” asked Fluttershy. “I always thought that other ponies besides me hate getting stung.”

The doctor’s eyes darted left to right while maintaining the phony smile. She never really thought about that until now. “Yes?” she lied. Fluttershy sighed and retracts her wings. She scooted closer to her on the bed, then turned to lie on her stomach. Her legs dangled off the side of the bed as she lifted her tail in front of the doctor, giving her better access to her hindquarters. Heartbeat sputtered a bit, blushed, and averted her eyes.

“F-Fluttershy! What are you doing?” asked the confused doctor. Fluttershy responded by giving her rump a sultry shake and lifting it up a bit.

“You want me to pretend it’s a bee sting? Fine. Just…” She hesitated as she starts to feel more vulnerable in her position. “S-Stick it in…”

“In where?!” shouted the doctor, trying her best not to stare.

“M-my… butt. In my butt cheeks. That’s where the little ones usually go.”

Heartbeat blindly reached out her hoof until she felt the hairs of Fluttershy’s tail. She pushed it down to cover up Fluttershy’s more intimate parts. “Ok,” Heartbeat raised her voice to get her attention, “first of all, I don’t need to know every detail of what you do behind closed doors. Second, I can’t draw blood from your butt. A safer, more effective procedure is in your elbow! Now, if you would be so kind, act your age, sit up, and extend your foreleg!”

Fluttershy, embarrassed by being talked down to like a small filly, moved from her wanting position and sat on the bed once more. She looked away from the doctor while rubbing her foreleg with her other hoof. Bracing herself, she closed her eyes and extended her leg as instructed, letting out a small whimper. Grateful to see some cooperation, Dr. Heartbeat wrapped the rubber strap around Fluttershy’s leg to slow the circulation. Then, she rubbed some alcohol on the site of the puncture sight to disinfect it. She positioned the needle on Fluttershy’s inner joint, but glanced at Fluttershy’s face. She could see the poor pony really taking her best hoof forward and facing her fears.

“Bzzzzzzzzzzz.” Dr. Heartbeat buzzed through her teeth. “I’m a small little wasp, and I’m having a bad day. Say, this looks like a good place to sting.”

Fluttershy, admittedly, was a little embarrassed on how the doctor was suddenly role-playing with her, but she can admit that the thought of this scenario taking place washelping her calm down a little. Before she could respond, she felt a sharp pinch hit her joint. Fluttershy hissed a bit and bit her lip. She could feel the needle inside, hunting for blood.

“Ahhh. You’re a big wasp…” said Fluttershy as she struggled to keep her eyes closed and dared not to look at what’s really happening.

“I sure am… and I’m done!” the doctor happily announced. Fluttershy opened her eyes and looked at her arm. Nothing was left besides the entry point of the needle. She felt a little tinge of pain, but it’s not as bad as the many stings she took before.

“Wow. That was fast.”

“Yup!” Dr. Heartbeat penetrated a small vial and discharged the blood inside. She placed the vial inside her coat pocket and took out a bandage from the supplies counter. She unwrapped it, removing the paper sticking to it, and placed it on Fluttershy’s arm lovingly. She smiled at Fluttershy while Fluttershy blushed and formed a silly grin.

“I’m going to be right back, Fluttershy. I need to drop this off at the lab,” said the doctor as she opened the door. “I’ll be back in a few minutes.” She closed the door behind her as Fluttershy watched her disappear through the window on the door. She lifted her leg to look at the bandage stuck to her. She did feel rather silly behaving the way she did, but everypony has their phobias. However, was it just the needle that she was afraid of or the pony directing the needle? A large majority of creatures listen to her and she took care of them in kind. However, she could never summon enough courage to try and get other ponies to listen to her, as soft-spoken as she was.

“It must be a trust issue,” Fluttershy thought. “I must trust my animal friends a lot more than I trust other ponies…” She sighed and looked down on the floor, swinging her dangling back legs off the bed. “Maybe that’s why it’s so hard for me share my feelings to even my closest friends…”

Heartbeat walked in a hurried pace, passing several staff ponies on duty who tried to make small talk. She brushed them off, intent on focusing on more pressing matters. She passed through double doors into a laboratory room that’s suited to cellular and biological research. She approached another pony that was looking at a sample through a microscope and tapped his shoulder. The light orange unicorn stallion was startled for a bit, being pulled away from his research, but he flashed a smile as soon as he laid his eyes on the beautiful mare before him. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a comb, giving his short, stylish, brown pompadour a quick brush.

“So, Dr. Heartbeat, what can I do for you?” he asked as he pocketed his comb. He tried his best to make subtle advances, but she didn’t respond to it.

“I want you to run a test on our VIP’s blood ASAP, Cell Count,” she responded as she took the vial out of her pocket and placed it on a stable holder on the counter. “Our boss has been riding my ass to get results ever since Princess Celestia delivered our… samples.”

“Ah, yes. Of course.” Cell cleared his throat. “Should I go ahead and prepare the specimens for our willing guinea pig?”

Offended by his remark, she put her face close to his and furrowed her brow. “Don’t call her that!” She backed off and took a deep breath. “Look, I know we both had our laughs when we read her files, but the patient is actually… a lot braver than I give her credit for.” Fear of needles aside, Heartbeat certainly would never dream of letting any of the insects Fluttershy listed to forcefully invade her body.

“If you say so. I certainly don’t want to be in her position.” Cell took the blood vial, poured it in a separate flask, and mixed a few other chemicals in it. He swished it around in his hoof and peered inside. “Looking good so far,” he stated as he poured a sample of the concoction in a petri dish. He put the dish under the microscope and peered in. After adjusting the knobs, he noticed something that makes his mane stand on end. “H-Holy cow!”

Heartbeat’s ears perked up from his reaction. “What? What’s wrong?” she asks concernedly.

“This pony’s immune system!” He grabbed the clipboard containing information on Fluttershy and quickly jotted down newfound information. “I’ve never seen anything like it! Her blood is full of antibodies. What could be the cause of all this?”

Heartbeat tapped her hoof on her chin and thought for a minute. “It may be a result from all the stings…”

“What?”

“Look, let’s just say that her history with insect stings is a long and extensive one. I think the constant exposure to different kinds of venom is making her immune system work overtime.”

Cell grabbed the files and gave it a second look. He nodded his head in agreement. “Makes sense. Either way, I’m confident the patient can take what those bees dish out.” He turned his head towards Heartbeat and flashed another winning smile. “Another brilliant deduction, doctor. Your intelligence almost surpasses your beauty.”

“We aren’t having a moment here, Cell.” Heartbeat brushed him off effortlessly and went down to business. She opened a leather case and took out another glass case inside. The case contained several love bees with swollen abdomens. They were looking to sting anypony just to get some relief. “Get the bees to the patient’s room and make sure to cover up the case. We don’t want to spook anypony.”

At this point, the boredom was so overwhelming that Fluttershy was counting each and every tile on the ceiling twice. Once was to find the total number, while the second time was to make sure she’s correct. She was actually so focused on this task that the sound of the door handle turning startled her out of it. The door swung open, allowing a medical instrument trolley to roll in. Pushing the trolley was Cell Count, with Heartbeat walking behind him. Fluttershy’s curiosity pointed to what was on top of the trolley: medical forceps, more rubbing alcohol with cotton sheets, a bulky, weird machine with electrodes and wires attached to it and a medium sized, oblong object that’s covered in a sheet. After she took note of what’s there, Cell Count walked to Fluttershy and extended his hoof.

“Ms. Fluttershy! Good to meet you. I’m Dr. Cell Count. I mostly dabble in the labs.” he welcomed as he greeted her with a winning smile. Fluttershy turned her head to not make eye contact and shook his hoof to be polite.

“L-likewise. The ‘good to meet you’ part, not the ‘lab dabbling’ part.” Fluttershy said as her words drifted off in volume. Cell gave a laugh, and nudged her sore foreleg a bit, sparking a bit of pain in Fluttershy. She pulled her leg away and rubbed it.

“Hahaha! We’ll get along just fine.”

“The tests came back from the blood sample you gave us,” Heartbeat chimed in, “you are in peak physical condition and your immunity is incredibly high.”

Fluttershy turned towards Heartbeat and gave a sheepish grin. “Oh, was that why you needed my blood?” She turned to her foreleg and rubbed it some more. “Goodness, I should have told you that my zebra friend, Zecora, gave me a potion that makes me immune to all known venom from insect stings.”

Heartbeat’s eyes lit up upon hearing that. She leaned in closer to hear her better, filled with disbelief. “What?!” she shouted.

Fluttershy was taken aback by her getting so close. “Oh… dear, that wasn’t in the file?”

“Not that I know of…”

“Well, it’s true. That’s why I can…” she noticed that a complete stranger, namely Dr. Cell Count, was in the room and shut up almost immediately.

“Don’t worry. He knows.”

“He does?”

“Don’t worry about it, Ms. Fluttershy.” Cell reassured. “Besides, it’s why we called you here… for this!” Cell Count removed the blanket, unveiling the swollen love bees crawling slowly inside the glass container. Fluttershy’s pupils shrank and her heart increased in pace at the sight of those types of bees again. Heartbeat noticed how Fluttershy’s hind legs are quivering and her breathing grew in intensity. At first, she feared the worst, but she noticed how Fluttershy was instinctively pushing her body towards the bees instead of backing away like she usually did.

“Ok, ok! Relax, Fluttershy.” urged Heartbeat. “We need to first attach a monitor to you to collect your sensory data, and we need you to start off calmly before we can begin for the results to be accurate.” Fluttershy slowed her breathing down and focused on the doctor. “After all, we can’t let you start off excited, right?”

Fluttershy put her hoof on her chest and breathed deep. She calmed herself down, doing her best to pretend that they aren’t even there. Meanwhile, Dr. Cell Count handed over said monitor to Dr. Heartbeat. “Here, lean your head towards me.” gently commanded Heartbeat. Fluttershy, keeping her eyes closed and pretending that the bees aren’t there, leaned forward as Heartbeat carefully and gently attached the electrodes to Fluttershy’s forehead and each cheek on her face. “Now, I want you to turn your body away from Dr. Cell Count and lay down on your stomach, ok?” Heartbeat activated the bulky machine as it started up in a hum. Satisfied that her nerve and pulse readings are on display, she set the machine down on the floor and kept an eye on it.

Cell Count, taking this as a signal to begin, used his magic to levitate the pair of forceps and opened the top of the case. Thankfully, Heartbeat had the foresight to chill the bees by putting them in a freezer for a bit, making them cold, sluggish, and unable to fly. He easily grabbed one and lifted it up out of the container, closing the lid afterwards. He walked closer behind Fluttershy as the poor mare was still keeping herself calm, not knowing that he was hovering the bee over one of her unguarded buttocks. He glanced at Heartbeat to check if it was ok to proceed. She silently nods at him, then turns to hush Fluttershy while holding her hoof.

“Relax, Fluttershy. Think of the ocean and the sounds of the waves crashing on the shore…” whispered Heartbeat as Cell Count lowers the bee. Fluttershy can see it all in her mind. The breezing wind, the rushing waters, the glow of the sand. She felt completely at ease. That is, until the bee’s stinger eventually prodded her rump. She could feel the sharpness of the needle puncturing her as the ideal vacation spot vanished in an instant. Now, she was more focused on what’s behind her as she bit her lips and grunts under her breath. Her tail instinctively moved aside completely, giving Cell Count free reign on her entire hindquarters as the venom drains from the bee and goes into her system.

“Ok,” says Heartbeat as she read the data on the machine, “The readings are starting to accelerate. There’s the initial shock, of course. Her heartbeat increased and is keeping a steady pace.” She put her hoof to her chin and her eyes drifted towards Fluttershy’s blushing face. “But, is that fear or pleasure? Fluttershy. Please tell us how you are feeling.” Fluttershy opened one of her eyes and looked at her with a slight smile forming on her face.

“I-It feels… good. Really good~” answers Fluttershy, letting a soft moan escape her lips.

“Is that because you’re into this or-” Heartbeat harshly shushed Cell Count before he could finish this sentence.

“N-no,” Fluttershy continued. “It’s more than that…” Fluttershy can’t quite put her hoof on what’s different, but she tried to search on what she’s feeling deep down inside while resisting her primal urges. “I-I usually… The first sting is usually a little tough to get into, admittedly. But, after one or two more, I really get into it…” She could feel the heat radiating out of her marehood as she graced the doctor behind her with a few winks. Liquids dribble out of her as they drip on the disposable paper below her. Cell Count is blushing furiously, trying to contain his professionalism. He may have handled the occasional sperm sample before in his lab career, but the sight of an aroused mare is something else entirely.

“But this… This is something else. The first sting of these love bees…” Fluttershy turned her head to face Heartbeat with a concerned look in her eyes. “They make me feel really, really[/i ] good. I-It makes me want…” A strange unknown desire washed over Fluttershy. “M-Makes me want…” Her rump wiggled slowly at Cell, urging for another hit. “More… I need more…”

Heartbeat was seeing the signs of something familiar that she sometimes diagnoses from patients: addiction. She looks closely into Fluttershy’s eyes and saw that her pupils are slightly dilated. The readings on the machine can confirm that, though her heart was beating fast, her nerves are relaxed.

“Please… Just… one more sting.” whispered Fluttershy.

“Yeah… ‘Just one more and I can quit’. I’ve heard that before,” thought Heartbeat. Cell Count put the used bee back into the container and pulled out another. Heartbeat noticed him and put her hoof up, signaling to stop. “I’ve seen enough. Put that away.” Cell Count stopped in his tracks and looks down at the bee, struggling to escape his grasp. “Fluttershy, how many of these things stung you yesterday?”

Fluttershy whined a bit at the idea of not continuing this session, but turned to the doctor and answered honestly. “I-I think about… ten. Eleven?”

“Right. And you didn’t feel this way until you saw them today?”

“No, but… Now that they’re right here for me… I need more stings.”

“And you never felt this way before for other insect stings?”

“No. I would sting myself when I feel…” Fluttershy avoided eye contact when thinking about what she would usually do. “Naughty... and need a bit of a thrill. But, they never made me… need more so desperately.” She groaned as she planted her cheek on the bed. “I need one more. Just one more.”

Heartbeat shook her head. “Not happening. This only a hypothesis, but I think the attack yesterday might have made you addicted to their venom.” Fluttershy’s ears perked up as she stared at the doctor in disbelief. “Now, you’re probably thinking ‘I’ve always been addicting to insect stings’ but this is entirely different. You aren’t getting off on a habitual fetish.” Heartbeat put her face closer to Fluttershy’s to drive the point home. “You’re hooked on an addictive substance.”

Fluttershy’s eyes widened at the thought. Addiction? Other than her ‘habit’, she’s so clean. She would never touch anything addictive like coffee, tobacco, or alcohol. Heck, she would always ask for Applejack to give her a non-alcoholic cider during cider season. But, as much as she would hate to admit it, Heartbeat’s words somehow rung true. She did want more to sting her before Rainbow Dash stopped her. She did struggle and fight to feel that delicious spike one more time. Could she be a love bee venom junkie? Is there even a 12-step program for that? Fluttershy’s thoughts trailed off when she heard Heartbeat inhale a sharp gasp.

“Cell Count, NO!” she yelled out. It’s too late. Out of sheer curiosity, Cell Count took the bee he was holding and jammed the stinger into the center of his right buttock. He let out a sharp yelp as the venom spilled inside the stallion’s blood stream. Coping with the new, sharp pain of being stung for the first time in his life, his brain started to race. Something in his system was telling his body to release a large amount of dopamine and testosterone into his system, and the venom reached his testicles to make it ache and throb slightly. Heartbeat cupped her hooves over her mouth in horror as his member slid from his sheath, dangling from under him. He can also feel it throb and pulse, wanting to release every drop of seed in him. Under the influence of these intense sensations, Cell Count began to speak with a chuckle under his breath.

“Sorry, Dr. Heartbeat. I know that this isn’t proper protocol, but…” His head hung low as his other “head” rose to hit his stomach. “If I want to study how these things more accurately, it’s best to test it myself than to depend on the words of somepony who gets off to these kinds of things.” Fluttershy gasped, turns her body around the bed, and looked at Cell Count with a hurt expression. Tears slowly well up as her fears of being thought less of as a pony were realized. Dr. Heartbeat growls at Cell, spiting him for the rude comment he made. Cell let out another chuckle as he raised his head.
“But...she’s right,” he continued as lifts his head higher to shout at the ceiling. “This feels so good!” He looked at Heartbeat who was staring speechless at him. “I-I feel like I’m going to explode underneath, but it makes me feel like I’m at the top of my game.” Cell Count started to breath heavily as he eyes the bees. Heartbeat’s worries were realized, as she learned how fast the venom worked on a pony who hasn’t been stung before. The bees themselves are starting to move a little faster after warming up. One already was flying, trying to get out. Cell dropped the forceps on the floor, letting the first bee rest on his rump with its stinger embedded as he approached the case again. “Now, here’s a hypothesis.” Cell Count paused his sentence to open the case containing the bees. “What happens if I’m stung again?”

“Stop!” commanded Heartbeat as she rushed to restrain him from opening the case. Putting her forelegs around his shoulders, she roughly jerked him back in an attempt to pull him away. Unfortunately, the action caused Cell to lose his magical grip on the case as it tumbles to the floor. Heartbeat’s own heart stopped at the sound of the container breaking on the floor and the angry buzzing that followed shortly after. The bees, recovering from the crash landing, launched themselves off the ground, aiming to relieve themselves the aching pains of their swollen abdomens. Heartbeat let out a scream as she attempted to shoo them away, flinging her legs and swishing her tail. Fluttershy, instead of cowering, gave in to her urges and called out to the bees with a whistle. The bees, who did not listen to Fluttershy the first time around, actually paid attention as she turned and presented her rump to give the insects free reign to sting wherever they want.

“Here, my little pretties~” Fluttershy calls out in a serenading voice. “The mean ol’ doctor won’t let you sting her, but I’m all yours if you want it.” She wrapped her tail around to rest on her back, as she wiggled her backside, taunting to sting. Not one to pass on a free target, the bees forget about Dr. Heartbeat and instead flew to Fluttershy and landing on several spots on her buttocks. Eager to get relief as fast as possible, one by one, they roughly jammed their stingers into Fluttershy, releasing a copious amount of venom into her. She shouted at the pain and gritted her teeth, groaning and twitching at the feeling of being poked and prodded by the sharp daggers of the love bees.

Dr. Heartbeat is stunned silent for a brief period, watching as Fluttershy’s water works poured excessively. Her folds overly drenched themselves in their own lubricating juices as she panted excessively. But, Dr. Heartbeat snaps out of it and quickly commended the brave pegasus for taking the bullet for her. “T-Thank you, Fluttershy!” she stammered, recovering from the fright. Fluttershy looked behind her and waves her on.

“D-Don’t worry about me. G-get-Ahhhhnnn!!” Fluttershy let out a loud moan as another sting pierces her soft, supple rump. “G-get another container to put these little guys in. They won’t sting again for a while once they let out all their venom.” The sweat pouring from her face loosened the grips of the electrodes plastered on her. Slowly, they slide off of her and land on the bed.

Heartbeat, knowing what she must do, rushed to the door and opens it very quickly. She then slammed it behind her to prevent anypony from seeing inside or letting any bees out. Cell Count, on the other hand, gazed in awe as Fluttershy’s plump buttocks twitch upward after each sting. It took no time at all for her to reach below and try to quell the fires in her loins. The smell of a mare in heat intoxicated the stallion as his member hit his stomach in response. He edged closer, letting his nose get nearer and nearer towards her sloppy sex. The smell was more overpowering, and he watched as her pink button winked itself in and out very frequently, squirting more of her juice on the bed’s paper. Without thinking, Cell gave in to his primal urges and let his tongue lap up her drink straight from the tap.

Fluttershy let out a gasp, and looked behind her to see what Cell was doing. She knew in her head that what he was doing was wrong, but she gave no effort to stop him. The venom was clouding her mind, as she shuffled closer to him. The bees, all satisfied with their work, flew off of Fluttershy and landed on the pillow to watch the two large creatures do what they needed to do. They had nowhere to go, and they don’t know where their hive was, so they conserved their energy.

Fluttershy dangled her legs off the edge of the bed, as her liquid drips onto the floor. Not wanting to waste anymore drops, Cell positioned his head under her tail and opens his mouth from under her clit. Drops poured into his mouth as he raised his head a little higher to put his lips around the mare’s pearl. He suckled and lathered it his mouth as a louder moan escaped Fluttershy’s lips. Taking this as a sign to go further, he planted his hooves on both of her stung, sore butt cheeks, sending a stinging pain signal to Fluttershy. Naturally, this made her even more horny as she rocked her body back and forth in timing of his licking. Drops of pre-cum dribbled from the end of Cell’s cock as it hits his stomach, urging him to hurry up and stick it in her.

He grasped on to her winking clip with his lips as he pulled away, giving Fluttershy one more excuse to moan. Using his hoof, he moved aside her tail and got one more look at her delicate, wet flower. Then, he lifted his upper body up to rest himself on Fluttershy’s back, as the mare gave another gasp on how far this was going. She wanted to stop it. She wanted to stop him. But, she was too drunk with lust to go along with her conscience. She can feel something prodding her backside as Cell made adjustments to properly align his rod with her entrance. He moved his body forward ever so slightly as the tip of his cock hit her folds. Feeling the hot slickness underneath, he gently pushed it in, parting her lips and entering her love canal. Fluttershy’s nerve endings shot off fireworks in her mind, as Cell steadily filled her up until he could push in no more. The tip and the shaft of his erection sent a very pleasurable sensation up his body, as his breathing increased enough for Fluttershy to feel his breath on the back of her neck.

He slowly pulls his member out, making Fluttershy moan louder as he exited little by little. Then, he thrusted it faster back in, making the pegasus yelp and shudder. He thrusted it into her at a moderate pace, pulling out and pushing in at a certain rhythm for him to take in the sensation of being inside a hot mare. Fluttershy cooed after each thrust, washing herself in ecstasy in letting a stallion dominate and rut her. Cell’s hips slapped Fluttershy’s cheeks in each thrust, sending more pain from treating her bee welts roughly. She drank in the mixture of pain and pleasure, as her muscles twitched and flew with each subtle bump.

Cell breathed through his nose and let out a snort, building the pace and slamming into her rump harder and harder. His stallionhood was like a piston, gaining speed and roughly shooting up inside her at a brisker pace. His balls clenched and twitched as they prepared to fire both both barrels. He can feel his release building up more and more. After continuous instances of Cell’s flare hitting Fluttershy’s inner g-spot, the mare's legs spasm as she let loose an orgasm, painting her walls and Cell’s dick with her feminine extract.

“I-I’m gonna come…” Cell announced. Before he managed to do just that, he did the only sensible thing in this whole ordeal and pulled himself out. He effortlessly slid out of her with a pop and propped his cannon against the dock of her tail, between her buttocks. His blood ran cold for a brief moment as he launched rope upon rope of his semen across Fluttershy’s back, coating her mane and her back with a fresh coat of white paint. Some even managed to splatter on the wall and dribble down in front of Fluttershy as she watched it ooze. Fluttershy felt the cooling touch of his cum on her as Cell tumbled back and landed on his haunches. Both of them were breathing heavily, panting to recover from the afterglow of the bestial, unhinged moment of pleasure between them.

Then, the door quickly opened as Dr. Heartbeat dashed to the other side and slamed it, panting almost as hard as they were. Between breaths, she laughed and rested her forehead on the door.

“Ha. Haha,” she sighed. “I found another container. We can fix all of this.” She lifted her head off the door and turned to face the two.

“We just need to-”

She stopped herself to look at the mess that the two ponies have made. Her jaw dropped to the point where it’s practically on the floor. Fluttershy tried to hide her face in shame behind her jizz-covered mane as Dr. Cell Count looked back at Dr. Heartbeat with a sheepish grin.

“Uh… I...sedated the patient?” he said weakly.

The next few days was riddled with controversy in Canterlot Central Hospital. The executive heads promptly fired Cell Count for his negligence and “unprofessional behavior” while Mrs. Heartbeat received a swift promotion to replace his position. She was tasked to find a way to combat love bee venom addiction for any future patients. Fluttershy barely managed to escape being tied to all that happened as she was sent home and offered free services for life in exchange for her silence.

Celestia knocked on Fluttershy’s door, hoping that the shy pegasus can answer. After a few seconds, Fluttershy opened the door and gasped at the sight of Celestia’s magnificence.

“Goodness!” she blurted out. “I didn’t expect to see you here, princess. I just-” Celestia calmly raised her hoof in attempt to gently silence Fluttershy. She got the message as Celestia lowers her head in shame.

“Please forgive me, Fluttershy.” the motherly ruler said sadly. “I have made a grave error in assigning you to this…” Celestia raised her head to make eye contact again. She can see the distress in her eyes. “Had I known that the love bee’s venom would be as addicting as the reports claimed. I wouldn’t have subjected you to any of this.”

Fluttershy felt sorry for Celestia. She knew deep down that she was only trying to give her an important task that played to her strengths and interests. She carefully placed her hoof on Celestia’s chest plate. “It’s not your fault, Celestia. I had no idea, either,” she reassured with a small smile. Celestia brightened up slightly, thankful that the pony in front of her was so kind and gentle. “I mean, sure, things definitely gone out of hoof, but I was more than willing to help you.”

Celestia smiled as she tried to beat back the disheartened look in her eyes. “Well,” she says, “I’ll make it up to you. As soon as we find a way to cure your addiction, we’ll give it to you immediately.” She looked up at the sky with melancholy emotions. “I’m just happy that we have the only love bee hive in our possession…”

Fluttershy paused on this statement. That beehive looked fully developed to her. That would mean that there’s a slight possibility of…

“Celestia… I don’t know if that’s the only hive…” Fluttershy whispered.

Celestia looked down at the little pony as concern washed over her. “What?” she asked.

“Many virgin queen bees produced in a hive mature in the span of a few weeks. After that, they reproduce and make new hives with a swarm. That hive looks so developed that I’m sure that there are other hives being made even as we speak.”

Fluttershy’s words made Celestia’s heart sink as her eyes shrunk processing this obvious, yet dangerous oversight.

“Oh no…”

The Interviews: Part 1

View Online

Documented incidents so far: 8

As Fluttershy predicted, new nests of the terrifying love bees are popping up in Ponyville. Of course, there’s no real evidence that the insects are only populating the small town. It was safe to assume that they could be anywhere in Equestria. Celestia, increasingly concerned for the well-being of her citizens, hurried to Canterlot to plan the next step on how to handle this silent threat. However, before she departed, she assigned Fluttershy with a simple but essential task: document any and all victims of love bee attacks to learn more about their behavior under the influence of love bee venom.

Ponyville’s only hospital received an influx of patients that were brought in by Canterlot’s Monster Hunting Agency department during their search for new hives. Nurse Redheart, who was tending to the care of these patients, led Fluttershy down the halls to visit each bedroom they were resting in. A few of the patients had a room to themselves. Couples that were attacked, however, shared the same bedroom. Fluttershy decided that interviewing the couples would yield more information on the interaction of two (or more) stung creatures.

“Honestly,” said Nurse Redheart, derailing Fluttershy’s train of thought. “I understand that we are dealing with a new substance that brings about unusual symptoms, but I don’t get why the agency thinks that we need to use valuable hospital space that could be used for more distressing matters.” Nurse Redheart averted her gaze from Fluttershy upon saying that. It certainly looked bad for a nurse to complain about their patients. “Sorry, it’s just… It all seems benign.” She looked back at Fluttershy following behind her in the hopes of emphasizing her concerns. “It’s not like the love bee’s venom is dangerous. The hospital you went to ran tests on the venom, and confirmed that it didn’t have anything remotely threatening, compared the venom of a common honey bee.”

Fluttershy understood the nurse’s viewpoint and nodded, but prepared her counter-argument. “I know this doesn’t look bad. So far, a lot of the patients that had first contact with the bees seemed to snap out of it quickly enough.” Fluttershy slowed down a bit to gather her thoughts. “But, we don’t know what will happen if, say, the patient has more than a couple attacks or even completely swarmed by more than a hundred of them!” Fluttershy came to a complete stop before approaching the first door that Redheart was directing her towards. Redheart placed her hoof on the door, preparing to open it after Fluttershy finished her hypothesis. “The changes in the victim’s behavior may be permanent! They could easily fall into a hopeless addiction to the venom and become maniacally driven to sexual urges! This can ruin creatures’ lives if they end up in this state.”

Nurse Redheart paused to consider what Fluttershy pointed out. She did have a good point, but…

“I’m sure that we can easily identify, isolate, and detox patients that show severe signs of addiction before anything like that happens,” stated Redheart confidently. “Celestia just needs to make Equestria aware of the love bees, what they do, and how to contact the hospital for any severe signs of addiction. Besides, you’re working with Canterlot’s best and brightest. They’ll find an antidote in no time.” Redheart opened the door to let Fluttershy into the room. “I’ll be outside when you’re done with your questions.”

“Thank you, nurse,” Fluttershy replied as she walked in. Usually, for hospital bedrooms that had more than one patient in it, there would be a curtains to separate them. That wasn’t the case for this married couple. Adorably, they managed to push the curtain to one side of the room and push the hospital beds together. The couple was very familiar to Fluttershy. One of them was an aqua green stallion with a brown mane and a brush and easel for a cutie mark. The other was a grey griffon that had a bottom half that had a darker gray than the top half. The moment Fluttershy walked in the room with door closed behind her, they were both silently debating whether to jump from the bed to give her a group hug.

“Fluttershy!” exclaimed the griffon.

“Hello, Mr. Troy. Hello to you, too, Canvas.” Fluttershy responded with a smile.

“We thought that Nurse Redheart was coming to check up on us.”

“Thank goodness for that,” chimed Canvas. “I’ve already gone through enough tests for one day. I didn’t feel comfortable with her poking and prodding every nook and cranny of my body.”

The griffon laughed. “Honestly, the only who’s allowed to poke and prod him is me.”

Fluttershy covered her hoof and stifled a giggle while the stallion shot the griffon the look of “Oh my gosh, did you seriously say that in front of Fluttershy”. The griffon averts his gaze and shakes his head with a sheepish grin. At that moment, a light bulb went off in Troy’s head.

“Oh, I nearly forgot to ask. Is Tenor ok?” he asked.

Fluttershy nodded her head. “He’s currently staying at my cottage. He loves to play with the younger puppies that are up for adoption.

Troy lied back on his pillow with relief. He knew that Fluttershy was an amazing animal expert, but the news was comforting to hear regardless.

“So, what brings you around here, Fluttershy?” asked Canvas. “You aren’t sick, too, are you?”

“Well, actually…” As soon as Fluttershy said that, she opened her saddle bag and pulled out a pencil and clipboard to take notes with. “I actually came to know more about what happened during the love bee attack.”

Troy’s wings sprung up and his face turned beet red when Fluttershy asked that. He swore that when she mentioned the love bees, he can feel tiny pinpricks poking his rump. “U-uh. How much do you want to know?”

Fluttershy breathed deeply and exhaled a sigh. “If you are comfortable with it, I would like to know as much as possible. That means what happened before, during, and after.”

Troy and Canvas stared back at each other for a minute, wondering what to say next. “Er, including the sexy stuff?” Canvas asked.

“Especially the... sexy stuff,” said Fluttershy, beginning to blush. “I’m sorry, but every action could lead to a clue to better help me and Celestia understand the behavior of the bees and their victims.”

“Celestia is helping you personally?!” shouted out Troy, starstruck.

“Yes.”

Troy started purring like a kitten with stars in his eyes. Even though he met her before, he still adored the princess. “I never got the chance to ask her before, but do you think that she can give me her autograph?”

“Not before she gets yours,” Fluttershy giggled. “She loves a lot of plays, especially the ones you’re in.”

Troy wanted to screech in joy.

“Anyway,” interrupted Canvas who was eager to get this embarrassing story behind him. “You want to know everything? Here’s how it went down…”

“Hmmm, nothing I don’t know so far…” thought Fluttershy. “The bees’ aggressiveness, their desire for more stings, how quickly the venom works, and how it clouds the mind for sex. It’s all there. But, that’s only the first piece of the puzzle.” She finished writing her findings on the clipboard and turned her attention once more to them.

Troy sweats a little bit in worry. “How much of that story did you write down?” he asked.

“Oh! Don’t worry,” assured Fluttershy. “I just wrote down what was necessary. Your actions aren’t going to be recorded and your identities will remain anonymous.”

“Good!” Troy chirped. “I didn’t want to face to paparazzi about this.”

“I have a few more questions, if I may.”

“Shoot,” Canvas said. “We already told you everything else. What’s left to hide?”

“Ok, first question: Are you feeling any adverse effects even now?” asked Fluttershy. “Do you feel like you would be more desired to perform sexual acts with your mate after this experience?”

Troy thought about this for a second. “Um… I really don’t know,” he said, reaching into his inner psyche. “I mean, there are times where I wanted to entertain the thought of dirtying the hospital beds, but that’s about it.”

“No bucking way,” Canvas said looking at Troy with a surprised look on his face. “I thought the exact same thing!”

“Needs more information…” thought Fluttershy as she wrote off the question for now. “Ok, here’s a big question. On a scale from 1 to 10, what is your current desire to be stung by these bees again in the future?”

Troy focused his attention on Canvas when she asked that question. Was the stallion deeply afraid of the very sight of a bee going to seek these critters out? It seemed unfathomable, but anything is possible at this point. Canvas’s eyes darted to Troy, who was leaning in eagerly to hear his answer, and then back to Fluttershy. With a sweat in his brow and a lump in his throat, he answered…

“S-seven.”

Troy busted out laughing while Canvas lifted his hooves to cover his face. He did not want what Troy was giving out right now…

“Y-you?!” asked Troy hysterically. “A seven?!””

Canvas groaned and faced Troy, who was wiping tears from his eyes. “Babe, you know how good it felt afterwards, right? I mean, yeah, the stings still hurt but there was that wave of pleasure afterwards that made it all worth it.” Troy calmed down to listen to his husband pour his heart out. “I mean, I-” Canvas sighed. “I mean, when I found that they only just stung the rump, I got a little more confident in them stinging me. It’s like a spanking, a mix of pain and ecstasy. I can’t really describe it. Bees still scare the horse apples out of me, but I wouldn’t mind being stung by those, especially if you are there with me.”

Troy placed his talon on Canvas and with a sympathetic expression on his face. “I’m sorry, Canvas. To be fair, I’d easily give myself a nine on the scale. They hurt, yeah, but it’s a good hurt.” Troy grasped Canvas’s hoof in his talons and pulled it closer to him. “During that moment, when we were being stung and making love, it made me feel so close to you. Maybe it was the venom intensifying our emotions, but I never wanted our moment together to end. While the swarm was surrounding us, you meant the world to me and nothing else mattered.”

Canvas tilted his head with a smile and leaned in to kiss Troy’s beak. Troy responded in kind and leaned to receive it, pushing his head forward upon contact to emphasize his affection towards his mate. While the two of them loving each other was sweet to Fluttershy, it only confirmed her worst fears. If a pony that really hated bees could love to be stung by love bees, than the venom’s addictive affect is worse than she thought. She had doubts when she was tested at Canterlot Central Hospital for their addictive properties, because she was already into insect stings before. However, this moment showed her how it can affect a pony’s (and griffon's) mind to readily crave the stings. She can only guess what would happen if they received more than a single attack...

“Umm, I’m sorry to interrupt, but I think that’s everything I need to know.” she said. Troy voluntarily broke off the kiss to pay attention to Fluttershy, but he still held onto Canvas’s hoof. “You’ve been a big help, and I hope to see you both out of the hospital after your stings heal. Tenor still misses you, of course.”

Canvas nodded his head. “Of course, Fluttershy. Thank you for all you’ve done, and I hope that we were some help.”

“You’re so welcome.” Fluttershy opened the door out of the room, leaving the two to their rekindled love of each other. But, as soon as she closed the door, her smile vanished and her blood ran cold.

“Well, what did you find out?” asked Redheart who was standing outside the room. Fluttershy took a deep breath and turned to Redheart with a worried look.

“Please do me a favor and keep a close eye on all of these patients. The venom is more addictive than I thought, and I don’t want them to get another large dose.”
