Two Weeks Later


A dark, desolate cloud was hovering eerily over the Crystal Empire, shrouding the former Equestrian city in an ominous shadow. What used to be a beautiful, shimmering Empire full of gorgeous architecture and plantlife, had morphed into an ugly shadow of its former self. Every building and street corner was coated in thick, oozing green slime that nopony bothered to clean up. Of course, that was mostly because the Crystal Empire’s citizens were no longer using the streets themselves. Instead, most of the beings that could be seen outside the corrupted castle were black, unreformed Changelings who were having their fill with the Crystal Heart. 

The Crystal Empire’s main castle looked similarly afflicted, with garish black cocoons melded against the once-shimmering towers. Two massive tapestries were hung at the castle’s front entrance, clearly having been made from various fabrics “donated” from Cadance and Shining Armor’s wardrobes. Even though the hack-stitched efforts looked absolutely appalling, they were legible enough to advertise the Crystal Empire’s new ruler. 

One tapestry had a stunning recreation of the Changeling Queen, her likeness stitched together using the torn remains of Princess Cadance’s wedding dress. The other tapestry used all of Shining’s suits to spell out in bold black letters: ‘ALL HAIL CHRYSALIS’

“Aaaaaaahhhhhhh… Now this is lovely~” Chrysalis was sprawled out on her new throne and sipping a vintage wine, both originally property of King Sombra’s before being put in storage. The twin thrones that had replaced the Dark King’s, now only remained in so many small pieces, destroyed by none other than Shining and Cadance themselves in their newfound enthusiasm. The Throne Room was unrecognizable with all the stained glass windows covered up, and the hundreds of suspended pods illuminating the space in a garish green glow. Most of the Crystal Ponies were “comfortably” nestled in each of those hanging pods, all of which were connected to the Crystal Heart outside to fuel its love directly. Of course, there were still more than a few ponies who were enjoying their new lives of servitude to Chrysalis and the Changeling forces.

“Hmph~ And to think, I could’ve easily just done this back at that stupid wedding…” Chrysalis usually thought back to her failures as a major sore-spot on her conscience; however, now with the Crystal Empire and its former Rulers under her control, she was able to shrug away those mistakes and chug the rest of her wine. After tossing the vintage bottle, which would’ve still racked up thousands of bits in an auction before shattering on the floor, she leaned back in her throne and let out a contented exhale. Meanwhile, the Crystal Empire’s former Princess rushed up to the throne the moment she heard glass breaking.

“Ah! Let me get that for you, my Queen!” Princess Cadance, much like her former husband and countless others in the Empire, had become helplessly afflicted by Chrysalis’ merciless pheromones. Despite how badly she tried to fight back, the Alicorn was now a mere shell of the prideful mare she used to be. Seeing her break was far better than any of the wedding gifts that Shining and the other slaves tried to offer Chrysalis following her victory. Cadance frantically began to sweep up the bits of broken glass with a broom and dustpan, making sure to use her hooves instead of her magic; even though her horn wasn’t compromised in any way, the last thing she wanted to do was use her magic in front of her Queen like she was worth it. As she went to work vigorously cleaning her Queen’s floor, she tried to give Chrysalis a wide and gracious smile. “Are you alright, Queen Chrysalis? I wouldn’t want you to cut yourself by accident.”

“Oh, it’s quite alright, Miss Cadance~” Chrysalis narrowed her eyes on her while sporting a haughty grin, clearly emphasizing how Cadance would no longer be called a Princess in her domain. The additional “Miss' ' was intentional as well, since Shining and Cadance’s divorce was as obvious as the Queen’s victorious conquest. But alas, even though her eyes were no longer glowing from Chrysalis’ brainwashing, Cadance was too far gone to really mind what her Queen called her. Nag, pig, slut, mule, whore, it was all the same really. Instead, the mare nodded with a chipper smile, and her eyes struggling not to veer down and stare between her legs. 

“If you’re wanting another womb full of ‘You-Know-What,’ you should find a better means of impressing me than staring at my ovipositor.”

“EEP!!” Cadance jolted in a panic, and went back to frantically sweeping up the broken glass under Chrysalis’ hooves. The Queen reeled her head back and laughed maniacally, absolutely relishing the hold she had over that former Princess. Even with how furiously she tried to fight those impulsive urges, it was obvious that Cadance had succumbed just as easily to Chrysalis’ pheromones as Shining had. All the while, she was desperately nodding her head and trying to speak apologetically, “O-Of course, my Queen! I-I-I know better than anypony else that you’re the sole judge of who gets those… t-those wonderful eggs you possess… Mmmnnnghhh~”

It may have been clear what was driving Cadance’s needy mindset -- especially when she was shuddering hard at the very mention of Chrysalis’ brood of eggs in need of a proper host. But much like her former husband, she tried her best to keep her enthusiasm at bay so she wouldn’t annoy her gracious Queen. Fortunately for Cadance’s sake, Chrysalis merely rolled her eyes before waving her excuse aside with a flick of her chitinous hoof. “Oh, it’s no issue at all, Cadance. If anything, having you here gives me a good excuse to pick your brain for possible ideas~”

“OOH! Y-You want my ideas!?” Cadance jolted up while holding a dustpan full of broken glass. Despite not having explicit permission, she instantly lit up her horn to conjure up a sizable stack of paperwork to drop right atop Chrysalis’ lap. “Oh, I’m SO glad you brought that up! I actually have a full list of ideas I wanted to advise you, my Queen!”

Cadance stood upright with a giddy grin, and her tail wagging enthusiastically. Chrysalis actually had to take a moment to huff in surprised amusement, not expecting to lift up a full file cabinet drawer’s worth of documents in her aura. “My word, Cadance!” she exclaimed with a prideful smile. “I wouldn’t have expected you to write so much in such a short amount of time~”

Cadance giggled with a pleased blush, and tried to clarify, “W-Well, I actually went through the castle’s Royal Records, which include a lot of intel on other members of the Royal Family. I was also able to find the Elements’ medical records surprisingly quick through the Crystal Empire’s hospital, since they went there for checkups after Sombra’s defeat.”

“Ah, wonderful!” As she scanned the countless pages of intel, the Queen’s eyes widened when she gazed through the sheer plethora of information. Everything from Twilight Sparkle’s childhood history, specific details about her family, Spike’s education records, and the Elements of Harmony’s medical records were all included for Chrysalis to peer through like a vulture scanning a carcass. A couple minutes of silence passed as she flipped through the pages, all while Cadance stood before her with an optimistic smile. The former Princess’ hooves clopped against the floor as she struggled not to prance before her Owner. “S-See?!” she asked before Chrysalis could finish her analytics. “Did I do good, my Queen?! I gave you so much information abou--”

“SILENCE!!!”

Cadance yelped out in a panic, and dropped her dustpan so she could bow at Chrysalis’ throne without a shred of dignity in her body. Meanwhile, Chrysalis continued to read through the stack of papers with narrowing eyes, and her grin widening with every detail she was able to learn about her foes. Twilight and her friends may have been able to outplay her in the past (and also that Starlight bitch by pure luck), but the Queen grew an especially determined smile by the time she looked back down at Cadance on the ground. “My goodness, Miss Cadance… You sure gave me more information about the Elements than Shining did~”

“R-REALLY?!” Cadance seemed absolutely elated when she pulled her head back up to beam at Chrysalis’’ approving grin. “Ohmigosh, THANK YOU! Thank you so much, my Queen! I’m so glad you can see how much more capable I am compared to--”

Before she could finish singing her praises, Cadance’s muzzle shut the moment Chrysalis raised her hoof to silence her. The Queen remained in her throne with a foreleg extended, taking that moment to think over her options. Cadance bit her lip eagerly, but showed much more resolve about her intentions than Shining had. Sure, Chrysalis knew that she wanted nothing more but another womb full of her eggs; but given the significance of their mission, she waited until Cadance was fully settled before giving her input. 

“Sooooooo… You seem to know quite a lot about the Elements of Harmony, do you?” That was when Chrysalis floated the stack of papers beside her throne, and turned her attention towards the fallen Alicorn. “If that’s the case,” she said with a sickeningly wide grin just brimming with malice, “would you mind telling me your thought of where they might be right now?~”

“OH! A-Absolutely!” Cadance remained standing for attention while Chrysalis pulled herself up from her throne. As soon as the Queen made her way down the main aisle of the Throne Room, Cadance excitedly walked beside her with the broom and dustpan forgotten. A couple of the nearby drones floated away those useless tools, which allowed for the Queen and Ex-Princess to talk without any distractions. As the two walked side-by-side, Cadance’s eyes were darting between Chrysalis’ smug grin, and that thick ovipositor hanging between her legs. Bobbing and swaying with her gait, the Queen chose to keep the appendage unsheathed to further tease her egg-addicted drones. “W-Well, first of all, I don’t think they would go to Canterlot for assistance just yet. Given how effectively Twilight and her friends work as a group, I doubt they would need my Aunts’ assistance very much. Especially since they were proven wrong so effectively the last time Twilight went up against you~”

Chrysalis chuckled and nodded her head. “Alright, that’s a fair point. Although, I think you’re referring to the first time, Cadance. I had all of you captured pretty effectively the previous time, if I remember correctly~”

“Oh! Right, you’re absolutely right!” Cadance rolled her eyes, instantly agreeing with that small correction. “B-But regardless of that… I’m certain that they’re back at her castle in Ponyville…”

Even as her former castle lay in continuous ruin with Changeling pods strewn across the walls, and her crystalized architecture crumbling under all that green ooze, Cadance only had her eyes on Chrysalis as they walked through the hallowed halls. The former Princess babbled like a gossipy teenager the entire time they walked, with Chrysalis nodding with an approving smile every now and then. She may have found Cadance’s needy behavior to be ungodly annoying, but the Queen was smart enough not to look a gift horse in the mouth. She knew that the Princess was giving her prime, exclusive information that none of her other ponies could give her; but even with such an essential contact on her side, Chrysalis still made a beeline towards the Oviposition room, which was located near the back where the service halls previously housed castle staff.

“AaaaaaAAAAAHHHH!!!~” Shining Armor, who was given the prestigious position of Chrysalis’ Brood-Stallion for his selfless efforts, was comfortably nestled in one of the Queen’s brooding stations in the Oviposition Room. The stallion appeared significantly different since his days as a Prince, or even as a stallion as a whole. Large tufts of his pristine white coat had fallen off around his torso, stopping right before his cutie marks; along the bottom of his stomach and chest, Shining’s barrel was showing nothing but a thin layer of skin that was being continuously stretched out by the sheer onslaught of eggs bunched up inside of his body cavity. The luminescence of those eggs made his body glow an eerie shade of green; however, it was clear that compared to the rows of other ponies latched out and bloated out with eggs, that Shining’s skin was growing more transparent from how brightly they were glowing through his body. In addition, Shining’s formerly slender and muscular form had altered to an equally tremendous degree. 

Shining Armor continued to moan shakily in the darkness, even though the thick, egg-shaped toy halfway perched inside of his ass kept any more eggs from being crammed inside of his overstuffed form. A thick metal chain was latched around his neck, and connected to a mechanized gear that tightened its grip each time he pushed himself further back. The toy he was riding was pitch black, with copper fittings along the base like some odd steampunk invention; there was also a couple vials of Chrysalis’ pheromone-laden secretions attached to the top of the fake egg, which helped to pump even more of that addictive substance inside of Shining each time he pushed himself against it. His ass may have been firm and ungiving before Chrysalis came along, but now it had swollen out to a legitimately massive degree to carry his Queen’s never-ending brood. In addition, the pony’s thighs and midsection had also expanded with enough fat to insulate his body, and also cushion the onslaught of eggs that left his knees particularly weak. Even if he wasn’t wearing a metal collar and leash, it was doubtful he could move too much while his body was bloated out three times his original size. Even his horn, which he hadn’t needed to use since his “Marriage” to Queen Chrysalis, was starting to appear more brittle and cracked as bits of black chitin began to cover the base like an insectoid cocoon. 

“Mmmnnnnnghhhhh~” Shining had his eyes blissfully shut while savoring that feeling of fullness he was experiencing in that moment. His hooves continuously skidded against the floor, scuffing up his formerly flawless keratin and cracking from the constant pressure. Sharp groans escaped through his gritted teeth, emphasizing just how furiously he was wanting to stretch himself even more. Along with the vast amount of glowing eggs incubating in his torso, the giant “egg” perched in his ass was keeping his tailhole comfortably stretched-out, almost like a bowling ball trying to stuff itself inside of a tube sock. A thick base was circled around the middle of the toy, ensuring that it couldn’t go all the way inside of Shining and keep him firmly plugged for laying later on. But even with his physical form so altered already, including the blooming effect of his cockhead that made it open up like his Queen’s ovipositor, his stallionhood remained nice and rigid as green-hued precum seeped from the spreading tip. The multiple bulbs expanding from the head may have been continuously spreading out, clearly wanting to suck up another egg of Chrysalis’ like a Venus Fly-Trap; but alas, all it could do was twitch eagerly while the stallion was plugged around that hefty toy. “Aaaaaahhhhhh~”

Even when he heard the doors nearby opening up, Shining could barely see much while his eyes were so rolled back. Although, his ears twitched when he heard his former wife gasp in elation. “Oh my GOSH!!~”

Cadance froze in place, marveling at the sight of Shining’s egg-bloated state for a few seconds. Meanwhile, Chrysalis walked right past her with a nonchalant grin. “Oh, stop drooling at him, Cadance! If you want that, you need to stay focused.”

“R-RIGHT!! Right, I apologize, my Queen!” Cadance quickly trotted past Shining’s perched state, only stopping for a split-second to see how many inches his tailhole was stretched-out to carry the girth of that egg. But after shaking her head clear, she resumed walking right alongside Chrysalis through the rows of egg-stuffed ponies. “A-Anyway, as I was saying... The trains would be the best means to spread your gift among further reaches of Equestria. I happen to know of a few ponies in this Empire who happen to know how to conduct--”

“Excuse me, Cadance…” Chrysalis stopped in her tracks, and turned around to stare Cadance in the eyes. The Queen’s wide-eyed, imposing presence was more than enough to make the former Princess freeze up with a look of panic and worry. But before she could think to say anything, Cadance was trembling when Chrysalis got right up in her face. “When you say ‘This Empire’... whose Empire are you referring to?~”

Cadance closed her eyes, and breathed out shakily in a mixture of pressurization and slight relief. She breathed out with a faint smile in her muzzle, before looking up at Chrysalis sincerely. “I… I mean your Empire, Queen Chrysalis. I know of several ponies in your Empire who could conduct trains towards further reaches of Equestria.”

“Oh, that’s a wonderful addition to my plans!” Chrysalis patted the top of Cadance’s matted mane, which made the mare smile with a heavy blush. The two resumed walking while Chrysalis continued to speak. “Honestly, I was worried my plans would be postponed when that bitch Twilight shut down the train lines from the Crystal Empire. But if you know of a means to counterpass that, I’m all ears~”

“T-Thank you, my Queen!” Cadance didn’t even care about what Chrysalis just called her sister-in-law, and kept her smile as bright as a summer day. “Although… I have a feeling you’d rather hear my plans to take out the Elements themselves~”

Chrysalis immediately stopped and turned around, facing Cadance directly. Behind the two mares, they could still hear Shining moaning out like a little bitch as he pushed himself against the egg-shaped device behind him. Despite how tightly the base was pressing against his blubbery cheeks, the stallion still tried his best to shove more of that thick dome through his hole while he was already full. Every hard push caused his muzzle to open up for a lumbering moan, and his cockhead to bloom out with more of that glowing precum dribbling to the ground beneath his hooves. He tried to bite his bottom lip so his muffled groans wouldn’t interrupt his Queen; but much like Cadance’s wandering eye, Shining’s arousal was more than obvious while keeping all of Chrysalis’ eggs nice and warm. “Nnnnnfffffff~”

“So, you have an idea regarding your niece and her little friends, hmmm?~” Chrysalis completely ignored her “husband,” and narrowed her sights on the Ex-Princess wilting before her. She loomed down at Cadance’s nervous expression with a fanged grin that spread across her whole muzzle. “What a lovely coincidence… Perhaps you should collaborate your plans with Sunburst to see how well they sync up~”

“O-OH!” Just from outside the Oviposition Room, Sunburst came bursting in the instant he heard Chrysalis say his name. Much like everypony else, the stallion was hopelessly hooked to her eggs, and desperate to receive her undivided attention. Unlike Shining, however, the stallion’s physical features hadn’t altered quite as badly as him; sure, his rump had certainly grew thicker over the past couple weeks, but his fur and horn were still mostly unaffected by the changeling hormones just yet. Aside from a blubbery backside, which jiggled in a comical manner as he waddled so frantically, Sunburst seemed about as afflicted as Cadance as he trotted up beside her. “D-Did you ask for me, your Queen?! I have so many more ideas about how to bring Twilight Sparkle and her friends to our side!”

“HEY!” Cadance tried to nudge him aside with a bitter sneer. “I was about to talk with Queen Chrysalis about that!”

“W-Well, I suggested it first!” he blurted with an offended stare back at her. “I even found the floor-plans to Twilight’s castle for easy infiltration! Do YOU have that?!”

Despite his useful intel, Cadance got right up in his face in furious defense. “Listen, Sunburst!” she shouted with enough force to make him stumble back, jiggling a little more in response. “I’ve known her for FAR longer than you ever have, and you’re NOT going to take this opportunity away from me!”

Sunburst pushed his forehead against the Ex-Princess’, his expression equally as aggressive. “But I’ve been in the castle myself! I know the layout well enough to know where to teleport and hide!”

“Well, she has MY daughter right now!! And I don’t want your grubby hooves all over her before I incubate her myself!!”

“Oh, you don’t think I’m good enough to get Flurry Heart for our Queen?!”

“I’M GETTING FLURRY HEART FOR CHRYSALIS, AND THAT’S FINAL!!!”

“ENOUGH!!!”

Chrysalis’ booming voice was more than enough to make both of her pawns crumple like origami figures. Cadance and Sunburst immediately pulled away from their squabbling, and hunkered at Chrysalis’ hooves like a pair of pathetic cronies. Both of them started babbling their apologies over and over, which caused the Queen to roll her eyes in annoyance. But instead of punishing either of them, she merely took a moment to breathe while they were bowing to her. 

“M-My Queen, I’m so sorry! A thousand pardons, I beg of you!”
“M-Me too, Queen Chrysalis! I promise I’ll never upset you in such an obscene way ag--”

“Ugh! Enough already!” Chrysalis sighed loudly enough to make the two ponies stop their shameless squabbling. While the two remained bowed and quivering in worry, Chrysalis peered down at them in a mixture of pity and contemplation. “Hmmmm… You know, I was hoping for a couple of capable ponies to venture out on a special mission for me. But if you two want to keep bickering--”

“NO!!!” Cadance and Sunburst pulled up at the same time, instantly forgetting their selfish arguing less than a minute ago. They even hugged each other tightly while smiling up at her, acting like a couple of foals desperate to avoid a spanking. “W-W-We’ll go on the special mission for you, my Queen! We’ll be good, I promise!”

“Y-Yeah!” blurted Sunburst with a hefty nod. “Absolutely! Cadance and I would be an unstoppable team!”

Their enthusiasm for one another may have been as fake as Fluttershy’s tail-weaves, but it wasn’t enough to dampen Chrysalis’ determined grin. Fortunately, her focus was given a lovely distraction when all three of them overheard Shining’s deep and ravenous moan. The stallion wasn’t able to open himself up past the fake egg’s girthy base; but even with his cock tiredly hanging semi-flaccid between his legs, it twitched profusely as heavy ropes of his cum erupted from the blooming folds. Cadance and Sunburst struggled not to moan enviously at the Ex-Prince’s reaction, even though they both knew just how intense and gratifying every orgasm felt under Chrysalis’ thrall. In addition, Shining briefly slumped over while his ass was still lifted, his chin resting on the floor as he sighed with his tongue sticking out. After taking a moment to marvel at Shining Armor’s needy state behind the two, the Queen glanced back at them with an approving nod. 

“Well, that’s a very good thing to hear from you two! Because I can’t think of any two ponies more equipped to apprehend Twilight Sparkle, and her Element friends too…”

One Hour Later


Normally, the train route from the Crystal Empire to Ponyville would take several hours, or even half a day to cover such a lengthy route. However, as soon as the news of Shining Armor’s downfall broke out, all of Equestria’s train lines were instantly frozen by Royal Order. All international trading routes were put on hold as well, which kept any allies of Chrysalis’ from the Changeling Kingdom to leave much of a mark. Back in Canterlot, the Royal Sisters were securely hunkered down in Canterlot Castle and making their plans. Meanwhile in Ponyville, Twilight Sparkle and her friends had all done the same in her tree-shaped fortress of a castle. 

Every dark, crystallized hallway was lined with Royal Guards drafted by Princess Celestia herself, performing regular patrols through every inch of Twilight’s castle. All of the Elements were securely locked inside of the Map Room, which was quartered off and left nearly-impenetrable by anypony to enter without strict inspection. Even though the castle’s kitchen was just down the hall, it took Spike over an hour to get all the food and drinks prepared through extensive testing by the Guards. And even when he went waddling back with a couple trays heavy with a bundle of pre-packaged meals, Spike groaned as he went through multiple magic barriers to test for any Changeling presences. 

“Ughhhhh…” By the time he was back at the Map Room’s doors, and given two more magical sweeps by the stoic Guards outside the doorway, Spike was looking more than a little fed up. Regardless, he kept his mouth shut when one of the Guards gave a specific knock to the door, which opened it for exactly three seconds. Spike bolted right through the opening, with the doors slamming shut the instant he got through. While Twilight used her magic to bolt the doors shut behind him, Spike shook his head and tried not to look too worrisome. 

The enchanted Map Table may have been fully lit, with a full hologram display of Equestria hovering in view for everypony to see; unfortunately, it was beneath a massive pile of maps, documents, and various biology textbooks that had been accumulated over the past week. Every published paper on Changeling anatomy, the nation’s culture, past historical events, and anatomical graphs were all laid out so every Element could learn as much as they could about their enemy. There were also several newspapers scattered across the once-clean floors, many of which carrying published photographs of Shining Armor’s untimely downfall; not surprisingly, Twilight’s friends made sure to black out any explicit pictures of her brother with marker. 

There was also a large corkboard erected by one of the walls, which had enough pieces of paper and red yarn to emulate the ramblings of a madpony desperate to find Pepe Silva. Several trash bins were lined up at the opposite end of the room, although none of the mares seemed to mind the disturbing overflow of garbage they weren’t able to throw out. Even with the water cooler nearby filled to the brim, and the two coffee pots beside it continuously brewing, it was obvious that all of them had become fatigued after so many restless nights. 

“Jeeze, Spike! Did it really have to take that long?!” Rainbow Dash was sprawled out in her chair, her head reeled back in exhaustion. Spike was gracious enough to hand her one of the packaged meals himself; however, she quickly snatched it with the briefest “Thanks,” and ripped off the lid to dig into its contents with her bare hooves. The pegasus slovenly devoured the oats and freeze-dried berries, clearly in need of some subsistence while locked up for so long. But alas, much like all of her friends who were groggily taking their packages, Rainbow appeared just as bitter as before when she tossed the empty container over her head. “For crying out loud… If I don’t get out of this room, I swear I’m gonna snap!”

“Psh! You kiddin’ me, Dash?!” Applejack gawked at her with an unamused glare, but ate her pre-packaged oats without much complaint. The other three Elements were all struggling to stay awake, and lurched over the table with defeated looks. Applejack seemed just as distraught behind the dark bags under her eyes; but much like Rainbow Dash, she had enough fire in her to speak honestly. “You remember that Royal Order Celestia sent us, right? If any of us leave this room without notice, we can’t come back in.”

“Yeah, I know!” snapped Dash bitterly. “I know the rules, okay?! And believe me, I get it! But do you really expect me to just sit here when Spike’s able to--”

SLAM!!!

The deafening thud of that thick book falling in front of Rainbow Dash made everypony jolt themselves back awake. The pegasus instantly shut up, and glanced back at the source of that sound with a nervous expression. Applejack turned towards the friend’s direction, as did the other Elements present. Even Spike had his lip bitten worriedly when he looked over at the lone pony standing in the room. Right beside that intricately-detailed corkboard, Twilight Sparkle had her back turned to all of them while her head was hung low. 

None of the others said a thing, and stared back at their leader in unified silence. Considering how badly things went the last time they had to battle Changelings themselves, the last thing they wanted to do was ignore Twilight a second time around. Despite how overwhelmed and exhausted they all may have been, their attention was solely on the Princess to hear what she had to say. But after letting out a long and heavy exhale, the Alicorn’s voice came out in a low, aggravated hiss. “Please… Please try to focus on the task at hoof…”

Rainbow winced painfully, but she complied with a nod before opening up the leather-bound book. Even though the anatomy texts of Changelings (originally gifted by the former King Thorax before his own demise) wasn’t exactly thrilling reading, Dash knew that glossing through the details would be better than getting another brutal braying by Twilight. The other ponies all tried doing the same, either rifling through the papers on the table or picking up other books strewn about. Given how tense the mood was getting, Spike tried to walk up to the Princess with utmost caution. “Hey, uhhh… Twilight?”

“Sorry, I’m sorry…” Twilight still had her back turned while pinching the bridge of her snout with a hoof. She clenched her eyes shut as she tried to maintain her composure. “I… I know I’m acting on edge, alright?”

Pinkie Pie, who was right between Rarity and Fluttershy, leaned in between them to mutter, “I’m glad somepony knows that…”

Spike quickly shot her a frantic “Shush” gesture while Twilight’s back was still turned. Luckily for Pinkie’s sake, that crass remark only resulted in a stronger sigh from the Alicorn. Twilight avoided looking back at the corkboard as she trotted towards the coffee makers, her muzzle wrinkling in obvious distaste. “I really don’t blame any of you for being upset. I just… I’m trying my best to keep everything together.”

“Oh, Twilight!” Rarity got up from her chair, and went up behind Twilight to give her a much-needed hug. “Darling, you don’t have to explain. We all completely understand.”

Fluttershy and Applejack were the first to get up and hug Twilight as well. The Princess tried her best to savor the moment while hugging them back, even as the details of Chrysalis’ invasion lingered in the back of her mind like a tumor. “We promised we were going to help you however we can,” said Fluttershy in an assuring, albeit tired-sounding voice. “And that’s exactly what we intend to do.”

“That’s right, Sugar Cube. If it was my brother, Ah’d be just as Tartarus-bent on gettin’ some proper justice.” Applejack placed a hoof on the Alicorn’s shoulder, and tried her best to give her friend a confident smile. “This ain’t the first time we dealt with Queen Chrysalis, but we can certainly make sure it’s the last time it happens!”

“Buck yeah!” Rainbow got out of her seat to give Applejack a hoof-bump in solidarity. “That’s what I like to hear!”

Spike and Pinkie Pie were giving Twilight some hugs of their own, all of whom clearly trying not to get too freaked-out about what was happening outside. It was bad enough trying to fight against an invisible invasion that could compromise everypony they knew outside; but after spending several days in strict isolation, it was clear that everyone was getting severe cases of Cabin Fever. By the time she pulled away, Twilight had to fan a hoof over her face to dry any lingering tears. And even with how distressed she may have felt about her brother’s state, she couldn’t help smiling when she saw how unified all of her friends looked in that moment. 

Twilight decided to follow the advice of her sister-in-law, and took a deep breath before addressing her friends. “Alright, everyone,” she said with a newfound tone of diligence, “I know we had to take a lot of impromptu biology lessons this week, but it’s the best chance we have to learn about the Changeling race and find an edge against Chrysalis. And while all of you were researching theories regarding her weaknesses, I’m pretty sure I may have found a way into the Crystal Empire…”

High above the Map Room, while Twilight Sparkle began to relay her own findings, nobody seemed to take notice of the large metal vent installed in the ceiling. Due to the castle’s massive size, the heating and air-conditioning ducts installed were actually large enough to fit a couple full-sized ponies quite comfortably. And with the castle’s remarkably strong and crystalized foundation all around, even a pair of trotting hooves wouldn’t be heard through the metal ducts.

Or even… two pairs of hooves~

“Wow, great teleportation work, Cadance!” Despite how long he and the Ex-Princess had been serving their Queen without upkeeping their magic, it was surprisingly easy for Cadance to remember one of the key spells her sister-in-law had taught her. The Alicorn was still a bit dizzy from the daunting distance traveled with a flick of her horn, as well as aiming for such a precise spot detailed in Sunburst’s notes. But much like the former Crystaller had bragged, they were able to teleport directly inside the castle’s maintenance ducts and away from the Guards’ lines of sight. And even in their brainwashed states, Cadance smiled rather giddily and hoof-bumped her partner. “Our Queen was so right! We really do make a great team!”

Cadance nodded to his point, but she made sure to give a faint “Shush” motion to his excited whispering. Sunburst nodded accordingly, and lit up his horn so they could easily traverse through the ducts. He and Cadance didn’t have much issue following his blueprints, which led them right towards the Map Room. By the time they reached the metal grates, the ponies grinned wide when they saw the Elements of Harmony below. 

Cadance and Sunburst glanced back at each other briefly, and gave a unified “Zip It” motion with their hooves darting across their lips. After nodding silently, the two went to work unloading the Alicorn’s saddlebags. In the left pocket, a large metal briefcase came out which had the faintest green glow emanating from the middle; both of them had to pause and shudder as quietly as they could, desperate not to let their own temptations jeopardize the mission. Even though they both knew what was in that case, they were also aware that Chrysalis explicitly ordered them to keep it alone. So after taking a moment to push the case aside, Cadance shivered and pulled out what was in the right pocket of her saddlebags.

Sunburst used his magic to carefully grasp the long metal cylinder, keeping it level as it hovered away from Cadance. The former Princess tilted her head curiously, not having been able to learn what Sunburst had invented in his spare time. It almost looked like an old cookie tin used to hold sewing equipment; however, several glass vials filled with glowing green liquid were carefully screwed into the top of the device. Cadance leaned in to get a good look at the bottom, and her eyes widened when she saw the large plastic fan installed. Before she could try to ask through sign language (a skill she and other castle staff had to learn years prior for their duties) what he was planning, Cadance could only watch as Sunburst carefully laid the device on top of the vent.

“So, as I was saying…” Twilight had no idea what she was in for, and was standing directly underneath the vents high above everyone’s heads. Her psychotic corkboard was temporarily covered with several maps of the Crystal Empire, including blueprints of the castle and ancient schematics from Sombra’s era. The Princess had her horn lit as she floated a pencil towards the main map. “After we closed down the trains, it seemed that Chrysalis closed down most of the access points in the Crystal Empire as well. However, the northern section of the city’s walls usually has the lowest number of Guards on patrol, so the best route would be to go in from the top.”

“The top?!” Spike stared at her in total confoundment. “Twi, that’s the Frozen North! We’d all freeze to death if we tried to move through that much snow after dark!”

Rarity tapped her chin with a hof as she stared at the map with an equally wary expression, “Not to mention, any spells we might use to counteract those temperatures would likely be seen from the Guards present.”

“That’s alright, I already have that detail covered.” Twilight floated over a thick, ancient-looking binder with Celestia’s insignia engraved on the cover. “After Spike sent Flurry Heart to Celestia and Luna for protection, they lended me this book of their most advanced spells. I already memorized most of them, but there happens to be one which can…”

Up above the group of unsuspecting heroes, Cadance had to bite her hoof to keep from swearing out-loud. Only the briefest grunt came out, which was thankfully muffled enough for only Sunburst to hear. When she glanced back at him with a disappointed frown, Sunburst kept a warm smile on his face. Instead of saying anything, the stallion moved his hooves around to give her a message in sign language.

‘It will be okay. I promise you, your daughter will be in the Queen’s hooves very soon~’

If Cadance wasn’t thoroughly brainwashed, she would’ve been very terrified about such a statement being made from him. But much like Sunburst, Cadance was too far gone as she nodded with a gracious smile back at him. She even used her own sign language skills to respond back:

‘Thank you very much. I really hope we can make that happen.’

Cadance then closed her eyes with a wistful sigh, thinking to herself, ‘Don’t worry, my sweet Flurry... Mommy is coming very soon~’

Sunburst nodded back, and then turned his attention towards his hoof-made device. Right beside those glowing vials on the top, a red button and a small switch were installed for easy use. Since Sunburst already had the fan pointed against the vents, all he needed to do was flip the switch to make the fan spin with a low, near-silent hum. The briefest breeze could be felt inside of the Map Room; however, none of the Elements questioned it while listening to Twilight’s plan of action. 

“... Now, after we use the abandoned catacombs from Sombra’s reign, we’ll be able to emerge inside of the Crystal Empire’s history museum. I’m not a hundred percent sure how secure the building will be, or how many Guards might be present. But compared to what we saw in those recordings, it’s probably safer than the streets.”

Twilight, as well as everyone else in the room, all shuddered with great discomfort the moment “recordings” were mentioned. Only Twilight and the other Princesses knew of the contents in them, but her friends knew better than to ask about anything Chrysalis personally sent to them. Up above the vent, Cadance glanced back at Sunburst with a puzzled look. Luckily, the stallion was quick to sign back at her about the context.

‘While you were out and waiting for your first incubation, our Queen sent out photos and videos of her triumphant return. From what I heard, your Ex’s wedding was on the cover of every newspaper in Equestria! She also sent out personalized videos of the egg depositing and laying processes for the Royals to see.’

Cadance almost let out an excited “Ooh!” in the duct, not caring one bit that the worst moment of her life was publicized so openly for everypony to see. Instead, all she did was sign back, ‘Wow, what a great idea! Hopefully more ponies will see how great it can be~’

Sunburst shrugged his head with a heavy blush. He then pointed at the device, and asked through sign, ‘Would you like to press the button yourself?~’

Cadance could hear her sister-in-law continuing to babble on about the plan beneath their hooves. But as her eyes darted between the device and Sunburst’s smirk, she couldn’t help asking silently, ‘What will it do?’

Sunburst grinned especially wide to that question, and answered through sign, ‘It will do all of the work for us~’

Cadance’s brows rose up with intrigue, and she gave a simple shrug before accepting that vague answer. She reached down, and pressed the red button while the fan was still running. The entire device started to shake from the motors inside, nearly rattling against the metal grates to alert the Map Room. Fortunately, Sunburst and Cadance were quick to put their shared weight down on the cylinder, which helped to keep it sturdy and quiet.

The glowing vials could be seen emptying out into the device, which made the whole container illuminate with that eerie green hue. The fan continued to spin at a faster rate, with Sunburst grinning evilly at his invention working properly. Even though a glowing liquid was going in through the top, the filtering and purification process of the motors inside were converting it to an invisible gas through the fans below. Cadance tried to look through the vents, but she couldn’t see any of the gas wafting into the room.

In fact, if somepony in the Map Room were to try and discern anything being deposited, the most they would see is a light ripple in the air like in a heat wave...
> Chapter Three
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

After only a couple of minutes, the vials were completely emptied out and evaporated into the room. Sunburst quickly turned off the device, and moved it aside so they’d get a better view of the action below. Twilight was still going over her plans, with nobody seeming to notice anything amiss. Meanwhile, Cadance and Sunburst had to cover their muzzles to keep from snickering.

“Now, by the time we get to the castle, we’re going to go here.” Twilight floated a pencil towards one of the castle blueprints, pointing it right at a specific section of the cellar. “As Rainbow Dash and Applejack learned from our previous trip to the Crystal Empire, this section of the cellar has a direct line towards the drainage pipes beneath the adjacent road here. All we have to do is get underground as fast as possible, and we’ll… w-we’ll…”

Twilight paused for a split second, and shook her head while her eyes were clenched shut. Spike and the Elements weren’t sure what happened, but it didn’t seem like anything more than a migraine. The Princess breathed out after a quick jolt of her head, and blinked a couple times before resuming her plans. “Sorry, just a… a headache or something… Anyway, the cellar likely won’t be guarded, so we won’t have much of a problem making it upstairs…”

Twilight tried to keep herself steady, but she couldn’t help but ponder what just happened. It was only a second or two at most, but she couldn’t deny how strongly she felt… something. She wasn’t sure if it was a physical response, or merely something psychological, but she could’ve sworn she felt something that made her nerves tingle. Regardless, the Princess tried her best to continue explaining the plan without interruption. “Now, uhhhh… by the time we get to the ground floor, we m-might need to improvise if Chrysalis al… a-altered the castle layout a bit…”

Twilight’s eyes veered back at the board, and she floated the pencil towards the second page of blueprints. After inspecting the recorded footage delivered by Chrysalis herself, Twilight had made sure to mark certain parts of the blueprints with what she assumed to be the Queen’s assigned rooms. Several black marks were etched across the paper, with labels which made Twilight breathe out slowly. If she was just by herself, she likely would’ve assumed her heart was beating faster from apprehension.

Of course, if Twilight turned around at that particular moment, she likely would’ve realized that all her friends were growing more anxious as well…

“Nnnfff…” Spike was the first to start shuffling between his bare feet. Much like Twilight, the dragon couldn’t help shuddering a bit as he stood nearby the board. His chubby cheeks were beginning to blush the slightest bit, and his face started to feel a little hotter overall. He tried rubbing the back of his neck to relieve a little tension, but it didn’t stop his tail from twitching rather antsily. Even while Twilight tried to continue speaking, Spike had to walk off and get himself a drink from the water cooler. “Nnnghhh… What the…”

While the dragon tried to ignore his puzzlement with a quick drink, it didn’t take long for the rest of the group to feel similar sensations of their own. Applejack tried to pay attention to Twilight’s words, despite how muddled and stuttery they started to get; but at the same time, the mare had to take off her Stetson so she could fan her face. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash both squirmed a bit while standing, their wings instinctively trying to unfurl and spring out as they shivered against their sides. Rarity’s white fur made her glowing blush appear much more noticeable than any of the others, even as she tried to dab her face with a handkerchief. Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were the first of the group to begin staring over at a different region of the corkboard; more specifically, the blueprint layout where one specific room was clearly re-labeled by Twilight earlier. 

“N-Now, the Throne Room should still be intact for the most part,” continued Twilight after a strong shake of her head. “Whoo, uhhh… A-Anyway, that’s… that’s most-likely where Chrysalis will be holding most of her operations, so we should try to infiltrate that area first. But since we’re coming up from the cellars, that will have us move past some of the service rooms. One of those is the Laundry Room, which… w-which is the…”

Twilight paused for several seconds, her muzzle tightly bitten shut. Her pencil was shaking a little in her aura, unable to stay still while pointed at a particular region of the blueprints. Fluttershy and Pinkie were no longer the only ponies staring, as now all of them were fixated on one particular part of the map. Even Spike had to rush back in, his eyes growing rather wide when he read the label Twilight provided. “... the… the O-Oviposition Room?”

The Crystal Castle’s former Laundry Room, which was able to be identified through the footage Chrysalis sent to the remaining Princesses, had since become the hive’s unofficial room for egg-storage and the Queen’s indoctrination. Twilight and the others had all done enough research through the books to know exactly how the process worked, and what to do to avoid Chrysalis’ ovipositors if confronted. However, Rarity tried to subtly light up her horn to float over one of the biology texts from the table, as if she needed a “refresher” of sorts. All of the others were staring at that room pointed by Twilight’s magic, with the Princess herself needing to swallow some excess saliva. “... U-Uhhhh… Yes, that… t-that’s the Oviposition Room…”

Twilight’s hind-legs nearly buckled as she shuddered from saying that word out loud. All of her friends had to struggle not to groan by biting their lips, or even covering their muzzles with a hoof. None of them seemed to be aware of anything unusual going on, but they were all growing increasingly piqued by what that room contained. Pinkie Pie quickly raised up her hoof, like a filly trying to get her teacher’s attention in class. “Is… I-Is that where ponies go to… to, uhhh… y-you know…”

She quickly put down her hoof, averting her eyes from Twilight in embarrassment. The rest of the Elements squirmed and tried not to glance over at Pinkie; however, many of them had to cover their faces as they grew more blushed. Even Twilight had to take a deep breath before responding with a light nod. “I, ummm… y-yes, Pinkie. That… That’s the room where Chrysalis d… does those things…”

Nobody said anything for nearly thirty seconds, mostly since they were all becoming lost in their own thoughts. Rarity had her biology book floating closely to her face, which was already opened up to the specific section about how the Changeling Oviposition process worked. Even though there were no pictures, and all of them had read through that section before, Rarity soon found herself being bunched-up by Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash leaning in to read alongside her. Applejack put her hat down on the floor, and tried to look away from everyone while wiping sweat from her brow. Spike not-so-subtly picked up his friend’s Stetson, and blushed heavily while holding it up against his crotch. 

“Do… D-Do we…” Fluttershy winced from how meek and feeble her voice sounded out loud. But after breathing in with her eyes closed, she tried her best to ask Twilight, “Do… Do we have to… g-g-go inside of that room?”

Everyone instantly looked back at Twilight wide-eyed, clearly interested in hearing her answer. The Princess stood flustered for a moment, her eyes bulging out and her cheeks carrying a deep shade of crimson. Her muzzle hung open for a second, almost like she needed to re-think her response. However, she still had enough composure to breathe out and shake her head. “N-No! We… We can go through a service hallway here…” Her pencil was trembling quite a bit in her aura as she floated it away from the Oviposition room, and pointed it to a small hallway nearby. “It was actually under construction before Chrysalis invaded the castle, so there’s a good chance it won’t be patrolled by Guards. We can use that to move around the Ov… O-Oviposition Room... and avoid it completely.”

The idea definitely seemed feasible, even to Cadance and Sunburst as they listened to them silently from above. But as soon as Twilight mentioned avoiding that fateful room, all of her friends exhaled heavily in unison. It didn’t quite sound like groans of disappointment, but the group’s fallen expressions certainly didn’t help the implication. Up in the vents, Cadance and Sunburst struggled not to giggle from how quickly the pheromones were taking effect. 

“I-It’ll be okay though!” added Twilight with a hoof raised towards them insistently. “Our main goal is to rescue my family and defeat Chrysalis! If we want any chance to succeed, we need to keep our focus on the Throne Room first and foremost.”

“Y-Yeah! Totally…” Spike tried to show his support with a nod of his head, although he couldn’t bear to look her in the eyes with that response. He also tried to ignore the strong stares some of the others were giving him in annoyance. He bit his bottom lip tightly, and tried to interject with a raised claw. “Although! Uhhh… What if… What if Shining and Cadance are in there instead?”

“Y-Yeah!” Rainbow Dash instantly jolted away from Rarity’s book, her wings twitching more notably against her torso. She pointed over at Spike while staring wide-eyed at Twilight. “Maybe they ARE in there! Like… you said that Shining was in that egg room in that footage Chrysalis sent, right?”

“Hey, WAIT A MINUTE!” Applejack gawked at Twilight with a deeply offended look. “What the hay is she talkin’ about?! There’s footage of what they’re doin’ up there?!”

Twilight froze up with a worried look, like a teenager caught with a bag of salt-licks in their bedroom. Spike and the other Elements were all staring up at her in shock, looking like Twilight straight-up betrayed them. The Princess cringed strongly and tried to look away from their judgemental stares. Even though she had every right to keep that footage unmentioned, she still sounded rather guilty when she finally spoke up. “W-Well, ummm… I didn’t really want to watch my brother going through that… I couldn’t even watch it with Celestia and Luna back in Canterlot.”

The six friends all lowered their heads, still composed enough to nod silently in understanding. Nopony said anything for several seconds, although most of them were shuffling uncomfortably with their muzzles skewed. It was obvious that all of them had something to say; but at the same time, none of them were confident enough to speak before the Princess. Eventually though, Spike looked away from her while keeping Applejack’s hat over his midsection. “W-Well, uhhhh… Do… D-Do you think we could see the footage? Like, for research or something? Y-you don’t have to of course, being your brother an-”

Pinkie Pie instantly blurted out, “Ooh, I want to watch it!” 

“Me too!” piped Rarity, which was followed by Fluttershy meekly raising her hoof in agreement. 

“I-It could be good to learn as much as we can, right?” Applejack tried to shoot her friend a wide and insistent smile while motioning back at the others. “I-I mean, y’all already saw it, so… w-why not us?”

“Now, w-wait a minute!” Twilight was blushing rather heavily, but even her quivering hind-legs weren’t enough to keep her from raising a hoof. “We need to stay focused on the plan! Watching those videos from Chrysalis won’t--”

Before she could finish, Rainbow Dash lifted a hoof and shouted, “All in favor of watching the footage, say Aye!”

The rest of the group all shouted “AYE!!!” in less than a second. Even Twilight, despite keeping her muzzle shut, didn’t realize that she raised her hoof as well. She instantly shrieked and tried to put it down, only for Spike to call her out. “Hey, I saw that! You wanna watch it too!”

“N-No I don’t!”

“Majority rules, Twi! Let us see the video!” Rainbow Dash seemed rather insistent with her hoof pointed at Twilight. “C’mon, Princess! You wanted democracy yourself, and we won the vote!”

“YEAH!!!”

Twilight sighed with a strong facehoof. The thought of watching that footage was making her nerves tingle intensely, but there was still a strong bout of apprehension about witnessing her brother’s demise. Even the thought of seeing Chrysalis’ fat… thick… oozing ovipositor working its magic… most likely carrying a huge bulge of her eggs slithering down its shaft like a snake swallowing up its prey… heck, maybe it even glowed all throughout, allowing them to get a proper look at how plump and heavy those eggs may have been before they--

“Uhh, Twilight?”

“NNGHHH!!” Twilight jolted her head up, not realizing that a couple heavy strands of drool were seeping from the corners of her muzzle. When she glanced back at her friends, all of them seemed a little concerned at how she was acting. Spike blinked a couple times while continuing to cover himself with AJ’s hat. 

“Are… Are you okay?” he asked cautiously. “You just sorta, like… stood there for a couple minutes shivering.”

Twilight had to do a double-take, not expecting to hear she was lost in her thoughts for that long. One second she was trying to ignore her friends’ insistence in watching the footage of Shining Armor’s life as a brood stallion; but as soon as she thought about those weird… intriguing details about Chrysalis’ egg-depositing process, which most likely had a lot of--

“TWI!”

“S-Sorry! Sorry…” Twilight shook her head with her eyes shut, and winced while pinching the bridge of her snout. “I… I don’t know what’s going on… I think I had too much coffee or something…”

The rest of the group all glanced at one another, their expressions appearing equally as unnerved through their heavy blushes. None of them wanted to say anything, since it was clear that all of them were feeling similar sensations that they couldn’t necessarily speak about out loud. So instead of confronting Twilight about what may have really been wrong, they all merely shrugged or nodded in understanding. “Y-Yeah! Yeah…” Rainbow Dash motioned back at Twilight and said, “T-That makes sense. Like… coffee can do that sometimes, r-right?”

“O-Of course!” Rarity spoke up with a nod of her own. “Besides, we… we’re all just wanting to get up to Chrysalis’ castle so we can find those eg--Hostages! F-Find those hostages, as soon as possible.”

“Oh yeah! There are hostages up there…” Pinkie chuckled weakly and darted her eyes back and forth. “A-And we… We should know as much as we can to figure out what Chrysalis is up to.”

“Like that footage of her laying eggs, right?” With how quickly Fluttershy made that remark, her neediness was becoming as obvious as her wide-eyed stare. “We… W-We could learn a lot from that!”

“Y-Yeah, she’s right!” Applejack pointed back at her while yelling to Twilight, “Come on, stop lolly-gagging and show us how she does it!”

“Oh, alright, FINE!” Twilight rolled her eyes with a groan, which somehow sounded both frustrated and relieved at the same time. She closed her eyes before lighting up her horn, which gave the others a couple seconds to try smiling to themselves without the others seeing it. Twilight wished she put up a bigger fight about playing the damn footage, since she wasn’t too keen about watching her brother in such a demeaning and envious position. Even when that second adjective entered her head, which made her eyes shoot wide-open in shock, it wasn’t enough to keep a large magical screen from opening up in front of her and the other Elements.

“Wow, those pheromones are amazing!” Cadance kept her voice in a hushed whisper, but neither she nor Sunburst seemed too worried about being heard while their victims were becoming so afflicted down below. “How much longer do you think it’ll take?”

“Just give it a little more time, Miss Cadance,” assured Sunburst as he peered through the vent with a wide and sinister grin. “The Elements of Harmony might be strong-willed, but I can already smell their arousal from up here~”

“Mmmmm… so do I~” Cadance licked her lips, and kept her focus more on Twilight than anyone else. “So, who do you wanna help indoctrinate first? I call dibs on the ‘Princess,’ by the way.”

“That’s fine by me…” Much like Cadance, Sunburst couldn’t help staring down at the little dragon squirming with a deepening blush. The unicorn’s eyes narrowed deviously when he said, “Just as long as I give him a stuffing myself~”
> Chapter Four
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Below the ventilation shaft, Twilight and the others were all completely encompassed with the magical screen floating before them. After a second or two of static, a recorded feed began to play which showed Chrysalis’ smug, grinning face. Her chitinous horn was brightly lit to begin the recording, while the muffled moans of Shining Armor’s voice could be heard in the background. Twilight struggled not to wince when she overheard her brother’s strained voice for the first time in weeks; however, she and the others still shivered from hearing how obviously turned-on he sounded. On the footage feed, Chrysalis stepped back before addressing the video’s viewers directly. “Thank you for deciding to watch this little gift, Princesses. By now, you’re all probably aware that I have not only conquered the Crystal Empire for my Hive, but I also have your precious Niece right by my side~”

Chrysalis then stepped aside, finally revealing the bloated white mass that was moving behind her. “Now, I can’t exactly show Cadance in her cocoon right now. However, I’m more than happy to show your former Prince fulfilling his proper duties~”

As soon as the video panned back, giving a full shot of Shining Armor sprawled out on top of a table, Twilight and the others all gasped loudly in shock. The Ex-Prince was morbidly obese, with every inch of his swollen husk of a body bulging with dozens, if not hundreds of eggs that glowed through his fur. Even though his hooves were basically useless compared to the size of his torso, they were still tightly latched to the table while he struggled to lay on his stomach. His head was reeling back as he continued moaning out, his fat muzzle coated in a thick glaze of bright green goo. There was also a generous slathering of Chrysalis’ juices all over his backside, with strings of the syrupy substance connecting the base of a thick plug to his tied-up tail. 

Just a few minutes ago, such a sight would’ve been absolutely appalling to all seven of the heroes in that confined room. But with the air growing thicker with pheromones by the second, all of their eyes were instead wide-open in pure, mesmerized interest. All of them struggled to keep their fascination hidden, with a couple of the Elements trying to fake disgusted sneers on their muzzles. Unfortunately, even Twilight breathed out in a quick, heated huff as her tail instinctively flagged up at seeing all those eggs on screen. 

“Now then…” Chrysalis walked towards Shining’s backside, eliciting a deeper groan of pleasure as she grabbed hold of his tail. With her other hoof, she took her time as she tauntingly tugged on the handle of that plug’s base. Thick globs of that oozing slime dribbled from the dock of Shining’s tail, and drooled down his blubbery ass like he had just been in a gang-bang. The thick, viscous fluid was able to wrap around her swirling hoof when she pulled back for a moment, showing just how gooey and enticing the secretions would feel. 

She gave several intentionally weak pulls of his plug, teasing that gaping pucker to make the ring stretch out over the rubber bulb. All the while, Shining was moaning out deeper than he had on his and Cadance’s honeymoon. “As you can see,” purred Chrysalis as she took hold of that handle, and started to swirl the toy clockwise around his aching hole. “Shining is currently filled with much more than my brood at the moment. So many of my pheromones are incubating inside of the stallion, that each egg is pleasurable enough to replicate ten orgasms at once~”

That detail got all seven of them to groan through tightly gritted teeth, and to squirm while watching the video. Spike shuddered with a silent “Nffff~”, his claws gripping Applejack’s hat tighter around his crotch. Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash breathed out with her face a beet-red while fanning her face. “H-Holy crap,” she muttered under her breath, which made Applejack nod silently beside her. Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were squirming badly, and tried to stay at the back of the group so none of the others could see their enticed expressions. Rarity, who was remaining stoically silent, was repeatedly darting her eyes around while her horn was lit up; fortunately, none of the others seemed to notice the faint blue aura of her magic nestled right underneath her twitching tail…

“GNAAAAAHHHHH!!!~” Shining was moaning helplessly like a mare in heat, struggling against his restraints while Chrysalis kept playing with his hole. The plug may have been tremendously thick, almost as large as a cantaloupe at its widest girth; but with how generously coated it was in Chrysalis’ glowing juices, the toy was more than properly lubed as she continued to swirl it around. The video feed moved in closer, giving its blushing viewers an up-close look at Shining’s hole convulsing tightly around the black rubber. All the while, Shining’s voice rumbled out in a deep and desperate tone. “H… H-Hello, my f… f-former Princesses! I-I know you are wondering why I’d do this. To join with my new Queen and give her my empire. She’s misunderstood Celestia, she helped me see… oooh has she helped me… mmmngh you have no idea the things she can offer. Please don’t think too harshly of me. Please j-just listen to her and talk it out! She really knows what’s best for… all of us...”

Even while bloated in eggs and having his tailhole openly played with, the stallion was able to smile up at the screen willingly. Twilight shivered at seeing that genuine smile on his face, feeling like he was looking directly at her. “I… I-I hope you’re doing well, Twily. D-Don’t worry about me! I don… I don’t need any rescuing, I swear!~”

Twilight and the others all cringed in pity, even though they could tell he truly meant that statement. They wanted to be happy he was in a “happy” place where he wasn’t scared for his safety. But given his appearance, they could only imagine how long it took to get in that state.

For “research,” of course...

“Ooh, such a dedicated brood-stallion, you are~” After a sinister cackle, Chrysalis gave his rump a light and supportive pat with her hoof. More of his dripping ooze clung to her hoof, and stretched out into a slimy rope when she pulled her foreleg back.“You must reaaaallllllly love holding all those eggs, huh?~”

“Oh, more than ANYTHING!!” screamed out Shining, his entire body quivering badly enough to make his bloated form ripple like gelatin. “I-I gave you everything I have, my Queen!! EVERYTHING!! Please, I… I want to lay them so I can get more!! MOOORRREEEE!!!~”

“Oh, you don’t have to be such a drama-queen about it~” she said with a light chuckle. “Besides, you certainly have given me everything I desired, Shining Armor…”

She took that moment to smile back at the video feed, almost like she was staring directly at all of those flustered and conflicting faces watching intently. “And what would you tell anypony who’s watching this footage right now, hmmm?~”

“Ohhhhhhh!!! P… P-P-PLEASE DO IT!!” With every strong push he gave, Shining’s plug tried its best to slip out from his yawning hole. But with Chrysalis keeping a firm grip on the base, any attempts by Shining to dislodge it were fruitless while he cried out frantically. “AAAAAHHHH!!~ This… this feels better than anything in my life!! I wa… I wanna share this with EVERYONE!! I want ALL of them to feel your eggs, my Queen!! This isn’t something to be afraid of, Equestria! If you want to truly feel happy, you NEED to let Chrysalis lay her eggs inside of you!! Mmmmfffff… J-Just thinking about it makes my heart race like nothing else!!~”

As the stallion writhed in his bondage with a violent shiver, thick globs of slime and his precum splattered all over the table. So much milky white cum, which by this point had an evident greenish hue, was drizzled over the table, with heavy strings continuously drooling down to the floor. Twilight didn’t feel the slightest disgusted by her brother’s impressive load, and stared at him with quite a look of appreciation. Meanwhile, all the others were licking  their lips as they saw thick globs of Chrysalis’ slime dropping into the stallion’s load, blending them into a tantalizing mint slurry.

“Well, if that’s the case…” That was when Chrysalis tightened her grip on the handle, and shot a sly grin back at the video recording them. “Then I suppose they should also see them as well~”

It was thankful that the footage included a loud, wet pop the moment she pulled the plug from Shining’s hole; otherwise, Twilight might have been able to hear how loudly she and the others all moaned out briefly at seeing it happen. Many bitten lips and tensed hind-legs could be seen among the group, but everyone’s eyes were glued to the screen like it was the climax of a blockbuster film. As soon as the massive plug was removed, revealing the gargantuan gape Shining was sporting, his tailhole yawned opened even further to reveal a smooth, glistening shell peeking through the middle. 

“Ohmigosh,” muttered Rarity, who was shivering in need while using her magic more blatantly. Pinkie and Fluttershy were right behind her, but neither could look away from the screen to notice Rarity stretching out her marehood as hard as she could with her aura. Nobody seemed to notice when Rainbow Dash sat herself down either, despite how obviously she was trying to grind her hot pussy against the Map Room’s cold crystal floor. Applejack sat right down beside her, only so she could position herself in a cross-legged stance that could conceal where her forelegs were hiding. Even Spike was squirming with his claws tightening up, causing a heavy dark stain to deep through the tent he made in Applejack’s hat. 

“Nnnnfffffff…” Twilight was thankful to be on the other side of the floating screen, which served as a transparent curtain between herself and her squirming friends. Her expression was still notably skewed in discomfort, but that was to be expected when her brother’s distinct voice was coming out so lustfully. Nevertheless, her horn remained lit to keep the footage playing out as it should. And even with her hooves remaining firmly planted on the floor, her marehood was repeatedly winking just below her raised tail. 

“My goodness!” exclaimed Chrysalis as she stepped out of the way, allowing the video feed to get a full and unobstructed view of Shining’s tailhole stretching open. The bright green shell of her egg was emerging within that puffy ring, glowing brightly and catching everyone’s undivided interest. “Just look at how large and smooth that egg really is. Even with how much it’s stretching your former ‘Prince’ open, it’s still undoubtedly satisfying as it slides past Every. Single. Inch~”

Fluttershy groaned out loudly, despite how tightly she was biting down on her hoof. Both she and Pinkie Pie were nestled side-by-side, making sure to remain at the back so none of their friends could see what the pegasus’ wings were doing. Fluttershy was using the tips of her feathers to fan their winking pussies, hoping to cool them down as they got hotter by the second. Copious amounts of their dripping arousal were trickling down the insides of their thighs, and flinging off whenever they got too close to their quivering knees. Even though Fluttershy was assisting both of them with her fluttering wings, the two refrained from even glancing at one another while carrying stone-faced expressions. The only responses they could give were a couple brief, muffled grunts as they watched that egg on screen. 

“GnnnnaaaaaAAAAAHHHH!!!~” Shining Armor’s moans deepened the more his tailhole opened up, and the curved tip of that egg started to peek out. Twilight Sparkle nearly fell to the floor when she saw that egg up-close, as did most of her friends on the other side of the screen. It was thankful that Shining’s voice in the recording was so loud, since it was covering up the enamored groans and shudders everyone else were making. Little by little, that massive egg pushed out at a steady rate to show them all just how intensely it was making their former Prince squirm. “Oh, guuuuyyyyysss!!! Y-You gotta try this, AAAHHH!!~ I-I-It just… it’s so relieving and satisfying at the saaAAAAAAAMEEE TIIIIiiiiimmmeeee… Hehehehehe… Oooooh, that was a good one~ Oh! OH!! OOOHHHH!!!”

*POP!~*

As soon as the egg reached its widest girth within Shining’s hole, it was spat out with a wet pop to leave the stallion with a hefty gape. Some of Chrysalis-slime slipped inside of that open cavity, but were quickly pushed back out when his next egg pushed into view. All seven of the heroes shivered and moaned out in unison, but tried their hardest not to be the loudest one in the room. On the screen, Shining could be seen slumping forward with a deep sigh of satisfaction, his face plastered in a truly contented smile. Meanwhile, the air within the Map Room grew even thicker with Chrysalis’ pheromones, as well as the Elements’ shared arousal as it wafted about heavily. 

Even Cadance and Sunburst were growing riled-up inside the vent, with the two shamelessly touching themselves and watching the spectacle below. Sunburst was stroking his slender cock furiously, his eyes narrowed on Spike and his fruitless efforts to hide that cute little boner. Cadance had her hoof tightly nestled between her legs, but her eyes were repeatedly darting around the room to see which of the Elements was growing the most aroused. There were definitely a few mares she could focus on, like Rarity’s excessive stretching or Rainbow Dash grinding her wet marehood on the floor; but despite how obviously all of Twilight’s friends were growing afflicted by those thickening pheromones, Cadance kept her utmost attention on the Princess herself. 

“Ooh! Here comes the next egg~”

“Oh, thank goodness,” muttered Applejack under her breath, which was thankfully unheard (or most likely ignored) by all of her friends. She and the others were all staring at the screen as the pink flesh of Shining’s gape was obstructed by another thick changeling egg. Aside from Twilight, who was standing as frigid and stoically as possible, everyone was either rubbing themselves discreetly or struggling not to masturbate out in the open. Spike was starting to step away from the squirming mares, his eyes still pinned on that second egg emerging from Shining’s hole on the screen. Meanwhile, the pheromone-laden air was growing thick in estrogen-scented arousal that even Cadance and Sunburst could smell up above in the vents.

“AAAAAHHHHH!!~” Shining continued to moan out helplessly, his head reeled back in response to another egg of his Queen’s exiting his hole. “Ohhh, this feels SO GOOD!!! NNNGHHH!! Y-You girls… You have noooooo idea what you’re missing!! Y-Y-You NEED to be filled with her eggs. PLEASE JOIN ME!! HehehehEHEHEHEHehehehe!!!~”

The stallion was barely able to push, since the sheer volume of eggs bloating his body was doing most of the work for him. Despite how intensely that first egg stretched his hole, there was still an obvious amount of resistance as the next one strained against his opening. But as the smooth, glowing shell pushed its way through to keep him moaning, Shining’s voice wasn’t loud enough to overshadow Chrysalis’ deep and coaxing voice. 

“Doesn’t this look nice, Princesses? Don’t you think that Shining and Cadance have a good reason for exchanging their Empire for this kind of experience? Just listen to how pleased he sounds while pushing out my eggs like a good little Brood Stallion. Of course, the only thing that feels as good as pushing them out… is having them shoved in~”

“Aaaaahhhh!~” Rainbow Dash moaned out especially loud to that last part, and she tried to grind her pussy even harder against the floor. Rarity was bent over while watching the screen, which could’ve given Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie a blatant view of her marehood being stretched out to obscene lengths via her magic. Of course, by that point during their viewing session, the mares in the back were not-so-subtly repositioned so their pussies were pressing up tightly against one another like they were “scissoring” standing up. Each had a hind-leg locked up against the other, which helped to keep them in place and make their marehoods grind against each other while they stared at the screen together. Applejack was shuddering through her weak moans, and staring at the egg half-lidded while thrusting against her tightly-nestled forelegs. 

Meanwhile behind the water cooler, Spike could be heard groaning over the sounds of frantic slapping. “Nnnghh!! Nnnghhh!! NNNGHHH!!!~”

*POP!~*

“NRRHG!! Ahahah oh Twilight if only you were here right now! Y-you could help me name all my new children! There's so many I’ve r-run out of W-Words!!”

Even Twilight let out a moaning exhale when that second egg popped out of her brother’s hole, showing off that impressive gape once more. The egg spat quickly enough to make globs of Chrysalis’ slime splatter everywhere. Even though Twilight should’ve gotten a full view of how badly her friends were handling the footage, she wasn’t able to peer past the translucent screen when there was such good content within it. Chrysalis continued to speak just out of the footage’s view, driving everyone even deeper in perverted confusion as the pheromones claimed more of their thoughts.

“Yeeeeessssssss… You’re already thinking about it, aren’t you? That little voice in your mind growing louder by the second… silently beckoning for you to experience it yourself. Who knows? Maybe you can try it at least once, before dismissing my methods of conquest so quickly…”

The feed from that footage was slowly pulling away from Shining’s fat ass, even as a third egg was already beginning to appear and stretch his hole again. “P-Please, Twilight!! I know you can hear me, you need to believe me!! PLEASE LET CHRYSALIS FILL YOU WITH HER GIFT!! PLEEEEAAAASSSEEEEE!!!~”

She redirected the recording so it was pointed at the two freshly-laid eggs on the ground, still glistening in a thick sheen of her glowing juices. Her face reappeared by the side through the feed, giving its viewers a good shot of her wide and cocky grin. 

“Just look at how large these eggs are, Princess… They might seem too big for a pony to take them, but you’d be surprised by how effortlessly my pheromones can open certain orifices up! Your muscles relaxing quickly… your focus waning away to the point you can’t think coherently… your inability to try to resist any… foreign urges in your body... And with every inch that stretches open around these lovely, fertile orbs of my brood… all you’ll feel is a yearning desire for more~”

It may have been obvious how difficult eggs that size would be to cram inside of an orifice, willing or otherwise; but as Twilight and her friends all experienced the same feelings of building arousal, none of them were able to think too clearly through their clouded minds. If anything, the sheer girth of those changeling eggs were unlocking parts of their psyches that made them relentlessly greedy about the prospect. Any feelings of disgust or worry for Shining’s sorry state were becoming completely unnoticed, and replaced with newfound sensations that were claiming all of their thoughts. And even in Twilight’s case, who was trying to focus on the plans on the corkboard more than anypony else, couldn’t help but feel a couple drops of her own arousal dripping down her hind-legs. 


The vents above were also dripping, but not from condensation as anypony would’ve thought, but of arousal. “Mmmmmmm~” Cadance and Sunburst were peering in closely through the vents, with each of them growing increasingly focused on their victims below. Sunburst got a great vantage point to witness Spike’s frantic masturbating, which made the stallion equally as turned-on with excitement. Meanwhile, Cadance licked the metal grating while staring down at Twilight’s compromised state. “That’s right, sister-in-law,” she purred in a hushed whisper above Twilight’s head. “Listen to our Queen… She knows what’s best for you and your friends~”

“Imagine your walls stretching open around my wonderful eggs,” continued Chrysalis, before she redirected the video feed towards Shining laying more of her brood. He wasn’t able to squat in his currently bloated state, but he still pushed with all his might as Chrysalis’ eggs popped through his slimy hole. “Just like with my diligent brood-stallion here. It might be hard to see from this angle, but I can smell how many times he orgasmed since starting today. And believe me… he would attest that it’s far better than anything he ever experienced with Cadance~”

“S-She’s right!” belted out Shining without the slightest hint of remorse or shame. “I-It’s sad to admit, b-b-but I… I couldn’t compare her pleasure to these eggs!! Nnnghhh… T-That’s why I divorced her in the first place! I-It was a mistake to marry her!”

Cadance’s muzzle may have twitched a little from that unnecessary jab, but she didn’t try to feel too offended either. If anything, all she could do was remind herself that Chrysalis and Shining weren’t wrong. 

“Oh gosh~” Rarity tried to bite her hoof after that involuntary blurb, but none of her friends cared about how she was reacting. Even her blue aura pulling her marehood wider apart was completely ignored by Pinkie and Fluttershy fooling around as discreetly as possible. By that point, the mares had both their hind-legs interlocked while standing back-to-back, and were trying their hardest to make their positions appear “casual” as they savored the debauchery on screen. Spike finally emerged from behind the cooler, and tried to sneak back in with the group while wiping cum off his scaley belly. Rainbow Dash and Applejack weren’t too bothered by him returning, and continued to play with themselves in response to Shining’s constant egg-laying.

*POP!~*

“AAAAHHHHH!! T-This is so wonderful!!~”

*POP!~*

“Nnnnnghhhhh… Yeah, that’s gonna make me cum again!!”

*POP!~*
*POP!~*
*POP!~*

“OH YESSSS!!! Aaaaahhhh… T-T-THANK YOU, MY QUEEN!!!~”

“You’re welcome, Shining Armor…” As the minutes passed, and the Elements of Harmony all grew hornier from the debauchery on screen, Chrysalis made sure they all got a good view of those eggs coming out at a faster rate. Egg after egg popped out from Shining’s plump hole, causing the meaty ring to repeatedly yawn open and push out his Queen’s glowing gifts. Thick ropes of Shining’s blooming cockhead splattered over the table, and shot out far enough to nearly hit Chrysalis in the face. shooting out Chrysalis’ hollow, chitinous hoof rubbed one of the stallion’s thick and blubbery cheeks, which made him shudder with his fur standing on end. And even with his constant moaning, as well as the sounds of wet schlicking noises with every hefty pop, Chrysalis’ voice still rang deeply in all of the viewers’ ears. 

“It’s perfectly fine, my little ponies… That feeling of emptiness you feel might be intensifying with every passing second, but you know that feeling can be quelled with a thick, filling egg deep inside of you. An egg that can grow… throb… pulsate inside of your deepest depths… And believe me, I know that you want one inside of you right now. And if you’re brave enough to admit it, I promise I can give it to you~”

“Please, Celestia! If you want your ponies to feel true love, try it yoursel--”

With that, the video feed was abruptly stopped right in the middle of Shining egg-expulsion. Twilight jolted from how suddenly the screen dissipated, despite her horn still being lit. All of her friends gasped and groaned in disappointment, with a couple of them stopping their unsubtle self-care in an instant. Spike still had Applejack’s hat, and he had to cover his crotch with both claws the moment AJ snatched it back to place over her head. The mare had the brim pulled down over her blushing face, not caring at all that a thick stain of dragon precum was fully visible at the top. 

“Oh, COME ON!” Rainbow Dash griped with a furious glare on Twilight. “W-What gives?! Shining wasn’t finished!!”

“Yeah!” blurted Pinkie Pie behind her. “At least play it again!”

“P-PLEASE!” yelled Rarity quite frantically. “I… I think I saw something important in the background!”

“Background?” As soon as she asked that, Twilight groaned and shook her head to get her thoughts back on track. “N-NO! Girls, we need to stay on track here! W-W-We can’t keep watching that footage when Shining is--”

Spike threw his claw up and shouted, “ALL IN FAVOR OF WATCHING IT AGAIN, SAY AYE!!”

“AYE!!!”

Sunburst and Cadance nearly fell over in hysterics, and had to clasp their muzzles with both hooves to stifle their laughter. Below the two drones, Twilight struggled to keep her desperate friends at bay while their hooves were all raised. 

“NO!! We NEED to focus on our plans here!” Twilight picked her pencil back up with her magic, and kept a serious glare as she pointed the tip back at the map. “As I said before, we’re going to be sneaking into the castle through the cellar! When we reach the ground floor, we’ll be… ummm… w-we’ll be heading for… for the…”

She blinked a couple times in confusion, clearly having forgotten her plans while her mind was replaying the footage of Shining laying all those eggs. The mental image was titillating enough to make her shudder silently, and she needed a second to breathe out. “Nnnffffff… We… We’re supposed to… Wait, what? Ugh…”

While the Princess was caught in that brief state of puzzledness, Spike and the other Elements all stared at one another with blushed, wide-eyed stares. It was clear that all of them were thinking the same thing, and saw their friend’s confusion as a prime opportunity. Fluttershy was the first to speak up, right after pulling herself away from Pinkie with both their marehoods still glistening. “Ummm… I think you were… explaining how to get into the Oviposition Room?”

“Y-Yeah!” the other five all nodded frantically in agreement, even though they all knew that was a blatant lie. Even Applejack refrained from calling her out, and even nodded at Fluttershy while staring at Twilight insistently. 

“I… I, ummm… R-Right, that’s… that’s right…” Twilight nodded back at them weakly, her eyes half-lidded in a mixture of hesitancy and compliance. Even though she was sure that wasn’t what the original plan was, her cheeks blushed at the thought of exploring such a place herself. She shivered antsily before redirecting her focus on the map. “O-Okay then! When we get upstairs, we’ll try to sneak our way into the Oviposition Room in secret…”

Up in the vents, Cadance and Sunburst hoof-bumped with satisfied grins. But despite the pheromone’s obvious success, they remained silent in wait as the group continued to discuss things below. 

“Ooh! OOH!” Spike had his claw raised up high like a kid asking to go to the bathroom in class. “When we get in that room, are we… a-are we able to bring anything, like… back?”

His question got all the others blushing heavily, their minds brimming with the same impulsive thought that Spike had. Twilight tried her best to maintain her resolve, but even she had to fan her face with a hoof. “O-Oh! Ummm… W-Well, uhhhh… M-Maybe we should just focus on rescuing my brother first.”

Rainbow Dash scoffed with a strong eye-roll. “Psh~ From what?” The instant that question came out of her mouth, the pegasus quickly tried to correct herself. “I mean, y-yeah! He… He shouldn’t be there like that. Not, like… all alone, at least…”

Applejack nodded silently with a subtle, knowing stare back at Dash. “Yeah, he… he shouldn’t be there by himself~”

“So it’s settled! We’ll try to find Shining Armor in the Oviposition Room!” Twilight tried to keep her focus on that particular detail, despite how badly other thoughts were starting to seep into her head. She had to look away from all of her friends and stare up at the map, using her pencil to draw out the most direct route. “And with Chrysalis most likely staying in the main Throne Room, there’s very little risk in any of us being discovered in there. Even around all those big eggs that would… b-be right there… c-completely unprotected…”

“Nnnffffff~” Rarity had to sit down so nopony could notice how badly she stretched her pussy out. “How… How many eggs do you think are in there?~”

“Oh, probably hundreds… Thousands even~” That thought made Applejack quiver like a fallen leaf, and she pulled her hat down further to cover her face. “It… It’d probably be real easy to--N-Nevermind!” She suddenly shook her head to stop herself. “Nothin’, forget what I said!”

“Wait, what was that?” Rainbow Dash was staring back at her wide-eyed, her cheeks a heavy shade of red. “Wh… What would be easy to do?”

“J-Just forget it!” AJ kept her face hidden while waving her hoof in dismissal. “They… T-They’d probably notice if one was missin’ anyway…”

As soon as that impulsive statement came out of Applejack’s muzzle, all seven of the heroes remained silent in serious thought. Even Twilight had to clench her muzzle, her knees buckling from that forbidden idea that crept into her mind. But as the Princess tried her best to remain silent, it didn’t take long for one of the others to speak up. Pinkie Pie’s eyes darted back and forth, and her lips trembled into a sheepish smile. “Uhhh… heh heh heh… I mean… who’s to say that Chrysalis would notice one egg going missing from her hive, right? Like… she probably makes so many of them every day...”

“E-Exactly!” blurted Fluttershy with a frantic nod. “If anything, maybe… maybe Chrysalis wouldn’t mind if we took a few of them. F-For research, I mean!”

“OOH! Good idea!” Rainbow Dash was quick to chime in. “Twilight, you’re into all that science junk, right? What would you say about a couple of us taking some of those eggs? Like… I’m sure we could sneak them out somehow…”

Applejack was trying to discreetly scoot in close beside Dash, and even pushed Spike out of the way so he couldn’t hear her whispering in the pegasus’ ear. “Hey, so ummm… how would ya wanna do that?~”

Rainbow let out a sly little giggle before whispering into AJ’s ear, “How would you wanna do it, hmmm?~”

“Uhhh!! I just remembered something important!” Spike kept his claw raised high to catch Twilight’s attention. “I, uhhhh… I can feel my dragon instincts kicking in! Like, just now!! And uhhhh… I need one of those eggs to, ummm… t-to keep myself from growing super big again! PLEASE!!”

The dragon’s eyes darted back and forth, and his bottom lip was bitten after giving such an unconvincing excuse. Twilight was trying her best not to listen to her friends’ increasingly desperate attempts, but it was becoming more difficult by the second to ignore her own thoughts on the matter. Despite having just watched her own brother being confined to such a sorrowful state, her marehood was winking repeatedly with a tingling sensation she knew she couldn’t sate herself. If anything, she was really feeling like Chrysalis was speaking directly to her when she brought up that deep… lingering feeling of emptiness that could only be sated by one of her massive eggs pressing up against her--

“NNNGHHHH!!!~” Twilight threw the pencil across the room with her aura, nearly hitting Fluttershy as it embedded itself in the wall beside her. When she turned back to face her friends, all six of them were frozen in worry from how abruptly she caught their attention. Twilight was looking legitimately concerned, and she lifted a hoof shakily to address the group as a whole. “L-Listen, we… w-we really need to stop talking about the eggs, alright? We… W-We’re becoming too distracted by it!”

“Yeah, but…” Rarity paused for a second with her face becoming more red than white. She tried to glance away from Twilight sheepishly before muttering under her breath, “If… If we’re going to be right there already…” 

“I-I mean, if you wanna go to the Throne Room first,” noted Pinkie Pie, who was fidgeting her hooves and averting her nervous gaze from Twilight, “I’m sure that some of us could split up and investigate the egg room ourselves.”

“I VOLUNTEER!” shouted Spike, even though he was desperately trying to hide his erection with one of his claws. “J-Just so my Dragon Greed won’t act up!”

“Ooh! I helped him with that last time!” chimed Rarity enthusiastically. “I’ll go with him!~”

Twilight face-hoofed with a groan, which made her realize how badly she was starting to sweat. Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash and Applejack were nestling in closer to one another, giggling devilishly and whispering things into each other’s ears. None of the others could overhear much, but their elated shivers and blushing cheeks made it obvious what the main topic of discussion was. Twilight was finding it harder to keep her focus in check, but she breathed out pertly while addressing the group.

“E-Everyone, PLEASE! I… I know that it sounds really tempting--I mean important! It… I-It sounds important to investigate all of those eggs. And to… t-to, uhhh… to see how they might… w-work…” After a few seconds, Twilight closed her eyes and groaned in frustration. “Ugh… W-What was I talking about again?”

Rainbow and AJ pulled away with equally flushed expressions, and stared back at Twilight wide-eyed. The two darted their eyes between the Princess and themselves for a moment, as if they were thinking the same thing. Applejack, who was supposed to be the Element of Honesty, blurted without a shred of regret in her firm voice. “We were… talkin’ about how many eggs we can bring back.”

“Mmmhmm!” Rainbow nodded her head vigorously. “That’s right! A-And, uhhh… we might have a way to sneak them out without detection~” The two snickered at each other with a couple of knowing nudges.

“G-Girls, I…” Twilight was growing more light-headed as she struggled to stand upright. “... I don’t think that was the plan…”

“How many do you think we can hold?” Spike, as well as the other three mares behind him, were all staring at Rainbow and Applejack. Dash scoffed with a bashful smirk, and shrugged before answering nervously. 

“Oh, I dunno, uhhh… I’m sure that we could each take at least one without Chrysalis finding out~”

“Hmph~” Applejack rolled her eyes with a scoff of her own. “Ah could take more than just one…”

“W-Well, uhhh…” Rainbow tensed up from her friend’s confident-sounding claim. “I-I’m sure I could as well! Like… maybe three eggs!”

“Ah bet Ah could take five.” Just saying that number made the farm-pony shiver with a bitten lip. “Nnnnghhhh… Oh yeah~”

Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes on AJ with a sharp glare. “Oh yeah?! I bet I can take EIGHT of those eggs!”

None of the others, Twilight included, tried to stop the two as their previous shared-interest turned to a jealous rivalry. Applejack glared back at her as she readjusted her Stetson. “Oh, is that so?! Well, AH bet Ah could take TEN of ‘em!”

Rainbow got up closer to her face. “Fine! I’ll get TWELVE!”

“Ah’ll get FIFTEEN eggs!”

“TWENTY!!”

“THIRTY!!”

“FIFTY!!!”

“AH’LL TAKE A HUNDRED BEFORE YOU CAN OUTDO ME!!!”

“I’LL GET EVERY SINGLE EGG BEFORE YOU EVEN STEP INTO THE ROOM!!!”

“GIRLS, STOP!!!”

Twilight lit up her horn to grab both of the mares, and encased them tightly in her aura. After pushing them away from each other’s faces, she shuddered hotly and tried to extinguish the situation. “We don’t need to take ANY of the eggs!! W-We don’t even have enough bags to hold more than a few if we decided to!”

The two glanced back at her and asked, “Bags?” at the same time. Luckily, they both instantly realized their mistake and tried to correct themselves. 

“O-Oh, yeah! Ha ha ha ha!” Rainbow Dash’s laugh was faker than her forced smile. “Y-Yeah, we… we would need bags to hold any eggs, wou… w-wouldn’t we…”

“Mmhmm, yeah!” Applejack nodded hard enough to nearly fling off her hat. “Ah mean, it ain’t like we could… u-use somethin’ else to hold all them eggs nice and snug…”

Twilight’s magic fizzled away from her horn when she clenched her eyes, desperate to get the first thought in her head away as quickly as possible. While Rainbow and AJ were freed from her aura, the others were all looking at one another and fake-laughing as well.

“Y-Yeah, that would just be crazy!” Spike scratched the back of his neck to stop himself from shivering like a junkie. “We couldn’t just… stuff ourselves with eggs like Shining was doing! Heh heh, that… t-that would be…”

“I-I’m sure it would be difficult,” muttered Fluttershy while rubbing her foreleg. “E-Especially if we found a really... really big one that needed a warm place~”

Rarity had to bite her lip briefly before interjecting. “Nnnfff… I bet they would be really secure inside of a womb…”

“Oh sliding down my throat,” moaned Pinkie, all while fanning her increasingly sweaty face. “Oooohhhhh… I bet I’d look pregnant if it went down to my stomach like that~”

“Yeah, I bet my brother did that already,” confessed Twilight, unable to even look at all of them while smirking to herself. “He probably stuffed himself to the brim like a good little slut~ HUUUUHHHH!!!”

Her shocked gasp was just barely loud enough to pull the others out of their lustful stupors. Twilight was wide-eyed with a legitimately terrified look on her face. “W-Wait, WAIT!! This… This isn’t right!!”

“Oh, fuck,” muttered Cadance up in the vents, her expression immediately flattening. “I think you need more of those pheromones for her, Sunburst.”

“T-That was all I had on me!” He was gawking down at Twilight with a shocked expression of his own. “I-I don’t understand, that was just as potent as one of the bombs we used back in the Crystal Empire!”

“Ugh, I can’t believe we underestimated her…” Cadance almost wanted to be proud of her sister-in-law for keeping her resolve so efficiently; but at the same time, the Princess’ stubbornness was making her grit her teeth in aggravation. She and Sunburst shared a look up in the vents, while Twilight struggled to get her friends’ attention down below. 

“Can’t you all see how you’re acting right now?! We… W-We’ve just spent the past few minutes talking about Chrysalis’ EGGS! S-Something is seriously wrong here!”

Spike muttered with his arms crossed over his chest, “Yeah, we don’t have any yet.”

“W-Wait, she… she has a point…” Rarity breathed out deeply as she pinched the bridge of her snout. “Nnnghhh… Why… Why can’t I stop thinking about them?!”

“Oh, who cares?!” Rainbow Dash was getting more fidgety as she squirmed her ass against the cold floor. “Mmmffffff… I just wanna get to that castle already~”

“Me too…” Fluttershy was looking just as antsy as she constantly shifted her weight between her writhing legs. “May… M-Maybe one of us could be a distraction for Chrysalis! Um… I’m sure she could focus on filling me while you all save Shining~”

Pinkie gawked at her with great offense. “Nuh-UH! I wanna be a distraction for Chrysalis’ ovipositor!”

“Oh, she’d probably stuff us to the brim if we got caught…” Spike’s eyes rolled back for a moment as he shuddered with a dopey grin. Just as a thick glob of drool was about to seep out, he jerked his head back to reality. “I’LL DO IT!!!”

“No, WE’LL do it!” Rainbow Dash pulled in Applejack close by her side, and stared up at Twilight firmly. “Chrysalis can take the two of US instead! We’re strong! We can take it!”

Applejack didn’t look offended at all by her friend’s insistence; instead, she blushed with a bashful and gracious smile. “Dawww, thanks, Dash! Ah was hopin’ you’d ask me to join in~”

“GIRLS, NO!!!” Twilight was becoming more frantic, and her rapid breaths were almost sounding like sobs. “We can’t… W-We can’t just surrender to Chrysalis!”

“Well, I don’t see why you all can’t~”

The sound of Cadance’s amplified voice through the vent got all of their attention, and they gasped while looking up. The metal grate was kicked out of the shaft’s frame, allowing for Cadance and Sunburst to finally make their appearance... 
> Chapter Five
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Spike! Get the guards!” Twilight was the only one to make a strong defensive stance, while the others all stood with blank expressions behind their blushes. Cadance glided down gracefully by her wings, and carried a warm smile across her muzzle. She also used her magic to float Sunburst to the ground floor, while his own horn was holding the large metal briefcase in his aura. 

“Oh, you can turn off your horn, Twilight.” Cadance shot her sister-in-law a coy, unworried grin when she saw how brightly the Princess’ horn was lit. With the way Twilight was stanced with a menacing snarl, it could almost be assumed she was prepared to fight them; of course, her tail was still instinctively raised up with her hind-legs wobbling needily. Cadance didn’t seem the slightest bit scared of Twilight’s glare, and held out a hoof in reassurance. “I promise you, Sunburst and I don’t mean harm to any of you. All we want to do is discuss a calm, dignified negotiation~”

“That’s right!” chirped Sunburst as he took the floating briefcase in his hoof. He made sure to hold it out like it was containing a big prize for all of the Elements’ widening eyes. “And if you all act good enough, we can give you a sample of something really wonderful~”

“D-Don’t listen to them!” barked Twilight, before she used her magic to teleport herself in front of her friends. She stared daggers at both of them and shouted, “I know that you’ve both been brainwashed by Chrysalis!”

“Oh, Twilight…” Cadance chuckled and gave a disturbingly nonchalant shrug. “All that Chrysalis did was open our eyes to something far better than any title or implied ‘freedoms’ you all cling to so fruitlessly.”

“And considering how overwhelmed you all are looking,” added Sunburst, who made sure to give an especially cheeky stare at Spike while he was covering his crotch. “I’m pretty sure we both know what you’re all wanting really badly right now~”

Spike, as well as the rest of Twilight’s friends, all shuddered and squirmed behind the defensive Princess. All of them kept staring at the briefcase in Sunburst’s hoof, while Twilight continued to stare down her former sister-in-law. “What did you do to us?!” she shouted furiously. “I know you two did something!!”

“My, what do you mean?~” Cadance placed a hoof over her chest and gave a faux-offended smirk. “Sunburst and I just happened to be listening in while all of you got really interested in… Oh, what were you all wanting again?~”

“You mean Eggs?! EEP!!” Pinkie Pie quickly covered her muzzle with both hooves, and averted her eyes from Twilight apologetically. “Sorry, uhhh…”

“No, it’s perfectly fine, Pinkie. It’s nice to say it out-loud, isn’t it?~” Cadance completely ignored her sister-in-law’s furious sneer, and shot a widening grin back at her friends. “Come on… just say it once to hear how wonderful it sounds~”

“Eggs.” Fluttershy softly spoke.

Twilight brought up a magic barrier to serve as a wall between the cronies and herself. “D-DON’T LISTEN TO HER!! She’s just trying to get in your heads!”

“Oh, but we’re already in there,” pointed out Sunburst, his tone growing as sickly confident as his partner’s. He tilted his head before adding, “But I have a feeling you want something else in you right now. Don’t you, Princess?~”

Twilight tensed up for a second, her muzzle twitching quite notably. But even with a sharp exhale, the Princess shook her head and continued to point her horn at them. “N-N-NO!!! You… Y-You can’t get me that easily, Sunburst! We’re just as strong together as you… y-you two are…”

Twilight’s words began to trail off the moment Cadance used her magic to unlatch the briefcase. She and Sunburst grinned eagerly as the case was opened up, revealing nothing but a bright green void radiating with their Queen’s magic. Sunburst reached a hoof inside, with his foreleg disappearing far past the case’s confines to confirm it as a portal of some kind. Twilight kept her horn lit, but her open muzzle turned silent while she and the others watched with great interest. 

“Oh, I don’t doubt how strong all of you can be as a whole...” Sunburst managed to grab hold of something before redirecting his attention to the group before them. “But our Queen has quite a lovely gift to help you think otherwise~”

With that, Sunburst pulled out a large, glowing green changeling egg the size of a bowling ball. Twilight and her friends all gasped, and were at a total loss for words. None of their eyes blinked as they stared intently at the massive egg, which was still dripping a copious amount of goo while balanced atop Sunburst’s hoof. The smooth, luminescent shell was slightly transparent, which allowed the Elements to catch the briefest glimpse of one of Chrysalis’ grubs moving inside. And much like the invisible gas that had encompassed the entire room, there were more than enough pheromones wafting from the egg to make all of the heroes’ legs quiver in need.

“Mmmmmm~” Cadance had to stop herself from reaching out and grabbing the egg for herself. Even though her marehood was winking like mad for that hefty mass to fill her up, she couldn’t help noticing how eagerly Twilight’s friends were standing for attention. Whether it was Rainbow Dash’s fully-sprung wings, Fluttershy’s dilating pupils, or Spike licking his drooling lips, there wasn’t a single member of the group who didn’t appear totally infatuated by the egg. Even Twilight, despite the stoic glare on her face, was obviously pushing her hind-legs together to keep from leaking. “I must say,” purred Cadance as she nuzzled in close to Sunburst’s side, “it seems like all of us want the exact same thing…”

“Nnghh!” Twilight was able to clench her eyes shut, even though she felt a profound wave of guilt for ignoring the egg’s presence. More of its pheromones were filling the Princess’ lungs, causing every breath to intensify the sensations tingling every nerve. She couldn’t glance towards her friends, but she could hear all of them groaning weakly and shivering behind her. “Th… T-That’s not going to work!” she said in the weakest, unconvincing excuse of a “yell” that Cadance ever heard. “We… W-We don’t need… t-t-that…”

“Oh, you don’t?~” asked Sunburst with a cheeky grin. “Then perhaps I should put it away then--”

“NO!!!” shouted all of Twilight’s friends at the same time. With the way they were all staring at him wide-eyed, it was like he was just about to drop a baby. The desperation in their faces grew more intense, with their bodies squirming and their lips tightly bitten shut. But with Twilight Sparkle’s magical shield still erect, none of them could try to reach out or get a closer look at that beautiful egg. 

“Hmmmmm… How about this?~” Cadance stepped forward, and used her magic to float up the egg from Sunburst’s hoof. The stallion nearly punched her for taking it from his grasp, but he stopped himself at the last second. While Sunburst closed his eyes and took a couple of calming breaths, Cadance floated the egg closer to Twilight’s magical wall. The Princess tried to keep her eyes closed, despite her nostrils flaring from the pheromones she continued to breathe in. However, Spike and the other Elements all loomed in closer with their muzzles agape and drooling. 

“If you’re really willing to prove your ‘heroics,’ I wouldn’t mind putting that to the test…” Cadance held the egg up high in her blue aura, letting it hover above them like the most captivating chandelier any of them had ever seen. Twilight took that opportunity to stare directly at Cadance, despite how badly she wanted to stare at the egg instead. The others all gawked at its sheer size and smoothness, undoubtedly imagining how it would feel during incubation. But even with how distracted they may have looked, Cadance knew they were listening when she continued to speak. “If none of you are willing to answer one simple question, Sunburst and I promise to leave you alone. Heck, we’ll even defect from our Queen and join you guys again~”

Both she and Sunburst chuckled from that clearly dishonest statement, mostly due to how confident they felt about their chances. “O-Oh yeah! We’d totally do that,” lied Sunburst with a devilish snicker. “That is, if you refuse to answer one little question~”

The group all managed to glance away from that floating egg, and shoot worrisome looks at one another. Only Twilight continued to stare the drones down, and exhaled through her nostrils before lighting up her horn. All six of her friends found themselves tightly bound in Twilight’s magic, with thick rings of her aura wrapped around their mouths to silence them. Twilight remained diligent when she spoke for the group. “Deal.”

“Ooh, you think you’re so clever, don’t you?~” Cadance didn’t care about her sister-in-law’s methods, and merely shrugged in response. “Well, just remember this… If any of you decide to answer my question, we’ll shove this big… beautiful egg inside of you right now~”

Twilight took a deep breath, and kept herself steady while all her friends struggled against her magic. A couple of them tried to frantically pull against her aura, but it proved to be fruitless. “I’m not intimidated, Cadance,” said the Princess with the last of her wilting composure. “What’s your question?”

“Well, somepony seems eager~” Cadance and Sunburst chuckled with knowing glances at one another, and the stallion nodding in approval. Cadance floated the egg down closer to Twilight’s wall, marveling at how quickly it caught all of her friends’ unblinking eyes. Meanwhile, the Ex-Princess leaned in close to Twilight’s face, and gave her a maliciously wide smile. “The first one to answer this question will get the egg…

“Where... Is... Flurry Heart?~”

Twilight’s eyes widened, but she took a deep breath while keeping her muzzle tightly shut. All the others groaned and thrashed against the magical bondage, despite how uncertain they may have appeared as a whole. Spike was using his claws to try and pull the aura away from his mouth, which caught Sunburst’s attention greatly. But instead of trying to stop Twilight’s magic herself, Cadance kept her smirk and repeated the question. “I know that at least one of you is aware of her whereabouts. That means that one of you is guaranteed to get this lovely egg all to yourself. All you have to do is tell me where I can find my daughter~”

Twilight ignored the strained groans and muffled cries behind her. After breathing out shakily, Twilight narrowed her eyes on Cadance and gave a semi-determined grin of her own. “W-Well… that’s not going to happen! None of us were told where Flurry Heart is currently at, just in case you goons tried something this sick! Even I don’t know where she is! I hate to say it, ‘Cadance,’ but you two came to the wrong castle to as--”

**SMACK!!!**

“GAH!!!” Twilight stumbled to the floor the moment that claw delivered a sharp slap directly to her glowing horn. The distraction was painful enough to make her magic fizzle for a couple of seconds, and her wall to temporarily disappear. That brief window allowed Spike the perfect opportunity to lunge himself out of Twilight’s aura, and fall on his stomach before Cadance’s hooves. Twilight gasped when she saw him free from her grasp, and she tried to shout out to him desperately. “SPIKE, NOOOO!!!”

“I-I-I LEFT HER IN CANTERLOT THE OTHER DAY!!!” Spike clung to the Ex-Princess’ hooves with both claws, and stared up at her in pure desperation. Even with Twilight screaming at him to stop, as well as the muffled cries of envy from all of her friends, Spike only cared about that egg hovering over his head. “C-C-Celestia and Luna were the last ponies I saw with her!! I also heard them talking about Queen Novo at Mount Aris!! I didn’t see them leave, but I’m willing to bet they took Flurry Heart there! She’s over at Mount Aris, I SWEAR!!!”

Twilight was leaned up against the magical wall, her muzzle wide-open in betrayal. The other mares could only stare at him with mixed looks of shock and anger, even though none of them knew that information themselves. Meanwhile, Cadance and Sunburst grinned evilly down at the traitorous dragon, with the mare nodding happily. “Ohhhh, I knew I could count on you, Spikey Wikey~”

She leaned down to rub the scales atop Spike’s head, causing him to shudder and smile through his guilty blush. He may have felt bad about turning against Twilight and the others; but at the same time, his tailhole couldn’t stop puckering when he stared up at that floating egg. Even though it was over half the dragon’s size, he still trembled with his tail raising up instinctively. But while Sunburst took that opportunity to walk towards Spike’s backside, Cadance bent down to get in close to his face. “You know what I did when I got my first egg, Spike?”

Spike blushed deeply in worry, but all he could do was gulp before shaking his head. Cadance floated the egg down for Sunburst to grab in his hooves, which allowed her to get in close to Spike’s ear and whisper, “I proved how important it was to me by begging for it~”

Spike breathed out weakly, and shivered from the thought of doing something so wrong. However, when he turned back to Sunburst, the stallion’s eager nod wasn’t nearly as prevalent in the dragon’s mind than that egg in his hoof. For briefest of moments he glanced back at Twilight, who couldn't even move while holding the others at bay, and merely hung her head in shame. Spike took a deep breath, which allowed him just enough time to contemplate before making his decision.

“P… P-Please, Sunburst, PLEASE!!!~” Spike pulled away from Cadance’s hungry stare, and bent himself over in front of Sunburst. He grabbed hold of his tail with one claw, and pulled back as much as he could to show off his puckering hole. He used his other claw to try and spread his cheeks apart, further degrading himself in front of everyone. “I… I’M BEGGING YOU SUNBURST, PLEASE!! PLEASE LET ME HAVE THE EGG, I’LL DO WHATEVER YOU SAY!!! I’LL GIVE YOU WHATEVER YOU WANT, I DON’T CARE!!! I’LL DO ANYTHING, PLEASE!!! I NEED IT SO BAD, I’M BEGGING YOU TO SHOVE IT IN RIGHT NOW!!!~”

Sunburst grinned with a lick of his lips, and used his magic to float the egg out of the way. The stallion lunged in muzzle-first, and caused Spike to gasp loudly when he dragged his tongue across the dragon’s scaly hole. Spike’s eyes rolled back, and he shuddered with his fangs tightly gritted. Even though Sunburst’s tongue wasn’t what he wanted, he wasn’t one to complain when he felt that ravenous muzzle beginning to eat him out. “AAAAHHH!! Aaaaahhhhh… Mmnnnghhh~”

Twilight had to cover her muzzle with a hoof, absolutely heartbroken that she lost her closest friend so quickly to Chrysalis’ mindless drones. The other Elements were all silent as well; however, they continued to stare at the spectacle quite eagerly while that egg was hovering in wait. Sunburst closed his eyes, and let out a rabid growl as he dug his tongue deeper against Spike’s petite little hole. The dragon may have been small, but that tight pucker was nothing compared to Sunburst’s lustful rimming. 

“OoooOOOOHHH!!~ Ho… H-Holy crap!~” Spike’s eyelids fluttered in response to the stallion’s muzzle, with Sunburst’s lips smacking hungrily against his scales. The dragon’s little draconic cock could be seen fully erect and twitching, while Sunburst’s long goatee brushed against his taint with every flick of his muzzle. Spike tensed up between Sunburst and Cadance, his blush growing heavier in response to his own brimming arousal. The frizzy hairs of Sunburst’s goatee even made Spike smile a little, and his whole body twitched as he giggled from the ticklish sensations. “Hehehehe… HA HA HA HA HA HAAAA!!!~”

“Ooh, look at how much fun he’s having!~” Cadance shot a sly grin back at the others, who could only watch from behind Twilight’s wall as Spike succumbed to their pheromone-laden fun. She used a hoof to hold up Spike’s head by his chin, allowing him to stare up at her in a distracted gaze. The little dragon continued to giggle between his weak moans, feeling quite the combination of sensations from Sunburst’s ticklish muzzle and titillating tongue. But even with how overwhelmed he may have looked, Spike smiled blankly up at Cadance when he heard her speak. “Now that you proved you’re willing to beg for our Queen’s eggs… How about you declare your allegiance as well?~”

Twilight tried to bang against the wall, screaming for him to stop. But by that point, her voice was merely a muddled noise compared to the tantalizing flicks of Sunburst’s tongue. He stared deamily up at her and moaned out, “You… Y-You mean for… for C-Chrysalis?”

“That’s right~” She took that moment to stare back at the Elements of Harmony, and stated firmly, “If any of you want to be brood-mares as well, you have to do the same!”

Twilight winced strongly, and tried her best to ignore the muffled groans from her friends as they thrashed against her restraints. But alas, the Princess couldn’t avoid the pain she felt when Spike lowered his head before Cadance’s hooves. It took him a couple of brief, rapid breaths to get his composure in check while Sunburst was digging his tongue into his tailhole. But even with how wonderful the stallion’s rimming felt, the prospect of feeling something way better made him shout out with little hesitation. 

“I… I PLEDGE MY ALLEGIANCE TO QUEEN CHRYSALIS!! AAAHHHH!!~” Spike shuddered hard when Sunburst got the tip of his tongue inside, and began to open up the dragon’s tight hole. Meanwhile, Cadance nodded in approval so he could keep going. “Nnnnghhh!! I… I rescind my status as an Equestrian citizen!! Aaaahhhh!!~ I… I QUIT MY JOB AS ROYAL ADVISOR!! I DON’T WANT THE PRINCESSES ANYMORE!!! ALL I WANT IS MY QUEEN!!! I WANT CHRYSALIS’ EGGS, PLEASE!!!~”

Every hearty cry of surrender caused thin strings of Spike’s precum to spurt out from his twitching cock. Meanwhile, Sunburst growled between those thick, blubbery cheeks as he speared his tongue in deeper. The dragon’s scaly hole may have clenched his tongue like a vice, but it still opened up enough to make Spike’s eyes roll back intensely. Twilight couldn’t even watch, and averted her eyes with tears bulbing at the corners. Even if the others felt compelled to offer support, all of her friends continued to watch wide-eyed as the egg hovered in closer. 

“I think he’s ready, Sunburst!” Cadance giggled when her partner pulled out of Spike’s ass with a wet pop. The stallion wiped his lips with a foreleg, and nodded pertly back at her. All the while, Spike could only writhe on the floor with his ass firmly raised and presented. His hole was slightly gaped while slathered in saliva, but he showed no shame as he held it up for that egg floating in closer. Cadance leaned down with a sinister grin, and stared directly at the Elements when she whispered, “Any last proclamations, Spikey Wikey?~”

That was when the dragon reeled his head back, and screamed with all his might, “ALL HAIL QUEEN CHRYSALIS!!!~”

“All hail our wonderful Queen!!” Sunburst and Cadance were more than happy to oblige after that cry, with the stallion grabbing hold of the egg with both hooves. Cadance held the dragon’s claws in her hooves, and made sure his bare feet were properly spread apart with her magic. Sunburst didn’t pay any heed to the dragon’s petite size, and pushed that massive egg hard between Spike’s fat cheeks. “NNNGHHHH!!!”

“GNNNAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!~” Spike belted out a deep and blissful cry the moment he felt that warm, silky-smooth egg pressing up against his tailhole. It’s slime stuck to his cheeks like the stickiest lube, relaxing his muscles and numbing any pain receptors like the strongest aphrodisiac. Even after Sunburst’s eager rimming, the dragon’s hole tried its best to open itself up by instinct. Fortunately for Spike, the glowing goo that coated the egg provided more than enough numbing agents to keep any pain from registering in his brain. Despite how severely his tailhole began to yawn open, the egg’s flawlessly smooth shell allowed the scaly ring to stretch apart without risk of tearing. Of course, even if that did happen, it was doubtful Spike would notice while moaning out like a mare in heat. “Ahh!! Aaahh! Ohhhhh, FAAAAHHHHhhhhhh...”

A couple more strands of cum shot out of Spike’s cock, giving him his second orgasm since those pheromones began to take effect. The egg wasn’t even a quarter of the way in, but it was still providing Spike with more orgasmic pleasure than any fantasies he had involving Rarity. He could feel the hungry and shameful eyes of his friends behind him, but he couldn’t have cared less while Sunburst kept shoving the egg in. All he could do was shut his eyes in strained, sensual bliss as he tried his best to swallow that egg whole. “OoooooOOOOOOHHHH!!!~”

“So, what do you all think?~” Cadance stared back at the Elements with a cocky smile, knowing that watching the fun was nearly torture without experiencing it themselves. All of Twilight’s friends were squirming helplessly, unable to get in and join on the action while Spike received the egg. Twilight meekly looked back up at her, her tearful face still blushing hotly from the stimulation. Cadance locked eyes with the Princess, and kept Spike held down while Sunburst continued to push. “Hmmmm… You know, you can at least admit you want this yourself, Twilight. I was the Princess of Love, after all. I can sense how turned-on you are by all this…”

“MMMPHHH!!~” Sunburst was gritting his teeth, and putting all his body weight against that egg to stuff it inside. It may have been the equivalent of shoving a buffalo through a doggy-door, but he and Cadance knew that Spike was able to take it with a little effort. Inch by inch, more of that giant egg managed to cram its way through the dragon’s loosening hole. Meanwhile, Spike’s strained moans grew deeper the more he felt that warm shell entering his needy body. His trembling form nearly sliding forward from the pushing if not for Cadance’s assistance. He could feel his insides becoming more crammed as the egg made its way through; but at the same time, his cock remained hard and twitching as he desperately tried to take in more. 

Twilight cringed when she saw how brutally that egg was being stuffed into her former assistant. She could only imagine how painful such a thing would’ve felt if it was anything other than a changeling egg. However, the sounds of his sincere moans were more than enough to make her shudder enviously. When she tried to avert her eyes from them, she could still hear Cadance’s deep and alluring voice. 

“Admit it, ‘Princess’... You’re curious about it yourself, aren’t you?~”

Twilight tried to look back at her friends, but all of them were fully encompassed in watching Spike’s hole stretching open for that egg. All of them were hopelessly turned-on, with the combined scents of their arousal wafting about thicker than the pheromones. Twilight knew that she should’ve denied Cadance’s claims, but… but she just couldn’t. In fact, the Princess’ composure could be seen visibly weakening as she hung her head in immense shame. 

“... y… yes…”

“See?~ Was that so hard to admit?” Cadance tilted her head with a warm smile that resembled the way she would smile as her foalsitter, which contrasted greatly with Spike’s hungry moans. “And you know I wouldn’t be so insistent about it if I didn’t think you’d enjoy it yourself, right?~”

Twilight could only huff while her blushing face was hidden from her line of sight. “M… Maybe…”

“So, how about this…” While Sunburst struggled to work the thickest part of that egg through Spike’s hole, Cadance stared her former sister-in-law down and asked sweely, “If you agree to let go of your friends’ muzzles, and allow them to speak freely, will you do the same? That’s something any friend would agree to doing~”

Twilight scoffed harshly at the Ex-Princess’ manipulative wording. But alas, she sighed to herself weakly while still hearing Spike’s moans. She kept her horn lit to keep the magical wall between them; however, she relented just enough to remove the aura from her friends’ muzzles.

“Awww, thank you!” Cadance gave her a genuinely gracious nod, while Twilight’s friends all gasped and moaned within their full-body restraints. The mares were all squirming hotly against her aura, but all of their focus was on Spike as they moaned out as needily as he was. Twilight didn’t want to think about how badly her friends have been compromised by Cadance and Sunburst; but at the same time, her leaking marehood and brimming arousal made it clear that she was feeling just as eager herself. 

“Now, girls…” Cadance grinned wide with her eyes narrowing on the other Elements, and she tightened her grip on Spike as he took in more of that first egg. “Be honest with me here… who wants to get stuffed with an egg of their own?~”

Before Twilight could even wince in guilt, she heard Pinkie Pie yell out, “I… I WANT ONE!!~”

“M-Me too!” confessed Rarity, even though she was blushing guiltily within her friend’s aura. “I… I want to be stuffed with them!!~”

“Nnnnghhhh… S-SO DO I!!” Rainbow Dash may have been squirming in guilt, but the sight of Spike’s brutal stuffing made her forget about her stupid pride. “I.. I want as many eggs in me as possible!!~”

“Same here…” Applejack hung her head in shame, but she continued to watch that egg being crammed in Spike’s hole. “Ah… Ah’d give anything to let that happen to me...”

“I WANT THE BIGGEST EGG CHRYSALIS HAS!!!” Fluttershy clenched her eyes shut after that impulsive blurb. “Eeee! I want to be as bloated as Spike!!!~”

“Ooh, listen to all of them!~” Cadance turned her focus back towards Twilight, who was squirming with her shame poorly hidden. “Now it’s your turn, Twilight Sparkle… What do you want?~”

“Nnnnnfffff… I… I want…” Twilight knew how horrible it was to agree with her friends, despite feeling just as needy as any of them. But the instant she managed to stare back at Spike, and saw the deeply lustful look on his face, it was far too much for her to take. The Princess clenched her eyes shut, and her voice came out in sputtering blurbs. “I… I…

“OH ALRIGHT, I ADMIT IT!! I WANT TO BE IN SHINING ARMOR’S POSITION!!! I WANT TO BE A BROOD-MARE!!! ARE YOU HAPPY?!”

Cadance merely nodded with a smug grin. “Very~”

While Twilight hung her head in unbridled guilt and disgust, her ears twitched when she heard her former assistant’s straining voice. “I… I might be small but I’m not made of glass!! SHOVE IT IN ALREADY!!!~”

Cadance and Sunburst giggled from the dragon’s insistence, with the mare shrugging her head. “Oh, alright then! If that’s what the future slave wants, that’s what the future slave gets~”

With that, Sunburst pushed against the egg with all his might with his shoulder. Spike let out a deafening shriek as his hole stretched far past its limits, and the largest part of that changeling egg managed to work its way through. Just like a reverse version of the footage they all watched of Shining’s stuffing, the little dragon was able to suck up the remainder of the egg in less than a second. His hole instinctively closed up to swallow the rest of the egg, while his body bloated up to nearly twice its size. 

“AaaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaaahhhhh…” Spike couldn’t even touch the floor with his claws, since that massive egg left his body swollen around it like a living condom. Nevertheless, the dragon let out a deep and sensual sigh by the time Cadance and Sunburst let go. The two smiled like prideful parents when they stood back up, and stared down at the moaning dragon rolling weakly on his stomach. Even more strings of the dragon’s load spat out from his twitching cock wildly, splattering all over the floor and his stomach as he was rolled around. He shivered and shook as if lightning went through his body. Spike’s eyes were rolled back in absolute bliss, his mouth agape and his drooling tongue sticking out. “Aaaaaaahhhhh… That… was amazing~”

“It… it sure sounds like it, sugarcube~” Applejack smiled weakly at Spike, happy to see him in such a contented state. The sight of his egg-stuffed form made all of them insanely jealous, but none of them were willing to speak up just yet. They all waited until Twilight gave in herself, and she finally turned off her horn. All six of them were freed from the Princess’ defenses, and the magical wall was removed from them and the two drones. Applejack was the first to smile back at Twilight while her head was still shamefully hung. “Thanks for doin’ that, Twi.”

“N… N-No problem…” Even after that hefty confession, Twilight needed a moment to pull herself from her guilty stupor. None of the others seemed to mind though, as they sheepishly walked up towards Cadance and Sunburst. The two ponies stood with prideful smirks as the remaining five stood before them, their blushing faces carrying a lot of nervousness and desire. Twilight remained behind her friends, and could only watch when Cadance walked up to them with the briefcase. 

“Now…” Cadance kept her attention on the Elements, while Sunburst laid down with Spike to rub his belly in aftercare. The little dragon moaned to his soft touch, and tried to nestle up closer to his side. Meanwhile, Cadance took that moment to reach back into the briefcase and pull out a state-of-the-art, hoofheld video camera. The red light on top started beeping when she pointed it at the Elements. “In order for Chrysalis to accept your offer, I’ll be recording this next part to prove to the Princesses how willing you all are. One at a time, all you have to do is say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to my question. After that, we’ll take you all up to the Crystal Empire with us…”

All of them nodded silently, their blushes deepening in realization and acceptance. Cadance smiled cheerfully, and trotted past each of the five with the camera recording their faces. “Yes or No… Do you want to help our wonderful Queen Chrysalis, and allow her to lay her eggs in you?~”

She stood before Pinkie Pie, who needed to take a breath before looking up at the lens with a nervous smile. “Y-Yes!” she chirped as honestly as she could through her blush. “Yes I do…”

Cadance nodded warmly, and then walked up towards Fluttershy with the camera. The pegasus squirmed with a skewed muzzle, but she exhaled briefly before nodding her head. “Y… Y-Yes…”

With another gracious nod, Cadance went up to Rarity’s bashful stance. The unicorn had her head hung from the camera for a moment, but she managed to pull herself up and stand somewhat confidently. “Yes, I… I do want that very much, Cadance...”

Next up was Rainbow Dash, who appeared much more guilty than the others. She looked at Twilight, and her lips moved as if to say something but then fell silent. She turned to Spike's envious state, and then towards the map of Equestria for a long moment. However, when Cadance stood before her in wait for an answer, it didn’t take long for the Wonderbolt to give in. After taking a deep breath, she stood with her head held high and nodded up at the camera recording her. “Yes! Yes I do…”

Cadance nodded kindly, and walked up to Applejack last. Before the Ex-Princess could even stop in place, Applejack sighed and nodded while averting her eyes. “Y-Yes, Cadance…” After a brief pause, Applejack hung her head and added meekly, “M… More than anything…”

“Wonderful work, girls~” Cadance then walked past the blushing five, and they all turned to face Twilight. The Princess appeared unbelievably nervous, even with all her friends smiling at her reassuringly. Cadance stood right before her former sister-in-law, and she readjusted the lens so the recording would get a perfect shot of the Princess’ face. “Now… Twilight Sparkle, just say Yes or No. Do you want Queen Chrysalis to lay her eggs inside of you?~”

Twilight’s heart was racing, and she pulled her head up to see all of her friends smiling with insistent nods. She could tell that all of them wanted her to comply, even while Spike laid in a post-orgasmic stupor beside Sunburst. When she opened her muzzle, she could feel her tongue forming the “Y” sound inside her mouth without even thinking. She closed her eyes for a split-second, placing all her focus into the answer she was about to give. She stared up at Cadance with a blissful, half-lidded gaze before hearing herself speak.

“Y… Y… YyyyyyyYYYOU’RE NOT GETTING ME THAT EASY!!!”

*FWOOM!!!*

Much to Cadance’s shock, she was hit face-first with a bright blast of Twilight’s magic. Before she or any of the stunned friends could do anything, Twilight bolted towards the doors as quickly as she could. Spike and Sunburst gasped, with the latter struggling to pull himself back on his hooves. But even with two different aura of magic trying to grab hold of her legs, Twilight gave another blast of her magic to burst the Map Room’s doors wide-open. 

“Twilight, no, don’t!!”
*BOOM!!!*

The Royal Guards posted outside the room all yelped and jolted in a panic. But even as they held up their spears at the ready, none of them were prepared to see Twilight flying like Tartarus out of the room. She screamed out frantically, “THEY GOT THE OTHERS, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! GO, GO, GO GO, GOOOOOOOO!!!”

Inside the Map Room, Cadance shouted out, “Quick, stop them! Get as many of the Guards as you can! NOW!!!”

Her five friends stood stunned and confused and looked to themselves with brief hesitation. Rainbow was then the first to give chase, taking off so fast that all the papers in the room were kicked into the polluted air. The others quickly joined in pursuit, never giving those first few Guards a chance. 
  
Twilight was leading the pack, and flew at mach-speed through the castle’s halls. A few of the Guards were quick enough to follow their Princess, although a lot of them were captured before they could even move an inch. The combined auras of Cadance, Sunburst, and Rarity were able to capture several of the Guards instantly, while others desperately tried to run away. Any unfortunate Guards who decided to stay and fight were either caught in Applejack’s lasso, or tackled by the remaining ponies desperate to appease Cadance. 

Before the Map Room was compromised, over three dozen Guards were stationed at the castle to protect Equestria’s last-remaining heroes. Unfortunately, by the time Twilight Sparkle managed to escape the castle and its crippling pheromones, only five of the Royal Guards were able to follow suit. All of them could hear the terrified cries of their fellow soldiers, as well as the enraged yells of the Elements who had succumbed to Chrysalis’ plans. But instead of going back to help them, or even looking back while running, Princess Twilight found herself with only the panicked Guards by her side as they bolted towards the closest “safe zone” they could find…

Of course, none of them were confident about how long, or how “safe” any place would be in the near future...

Less than an Hour Later…


Queen Chrysalis was back in her throne, and cackling hysterically to the “entertainment” she was fortunate to have in her Throne Room. Shining Armor, once a prideful stallion and dedicated Co-Ruler, was now just a blubbery mess of a pony twerking his ass for a former enemy. Even though he was acting less pridefully than a sripper at a dive bar, he was able to smile back at his Queen in desperate need of her approval. Luckily for the former Prince, Chrysalis was laughing it up while he bobbed his jiggly ass up and down rapidly. 

“Aaaahhhh!!~” Shining moaned out like a little bitch, and tried his hardest to twerk for Chrysalis. He wasn’t sure how acting this way would get him more of those eggs, but he’d be damned if he tried to question his wonderful Queen. His tailhole was sporting a huge, unsightly gape beneath his raised tail that exposed a lot of the delicate pink flesh inside; but much like the other physical alterations he had endured, Shining considered his stretched-out opening to be a sign of self-improvement. After all, what better way to show his Queen that he was a good Brood-Stallion than to make himself a proper egg-receptacle?

While Shining continued to degrade himself like the egg-addicted whore he was, Chrysalis sighed deeply and stared at him with great interest. His blobby physique, as well as his thinning coat and deforming horn, all showed amazing testament to just how effectively her magic can physically alter those pitiful ponies outside the Empire. She wasn’t sure how long it would take until his full transformation took place, or just how drastically he’d be changed from the “stallion” he claimed to be before. But at the same time, Chrysalis was hopeful that by the time she revealed Shining Armor’s true form to the world, she’ll have conquered enough of it to make the reception positive overall. 

‘Hmmmm… Maybe I can reveal him at Celestia’s grand stage thingy. It’s be a much better use for it than her stupid Summer Sun Celebration event…’

Chrysalis didn’t realize how long she was lost in her thoughts until Shining stopped dancing to ask worriedly. “Is… Is something wrong, my Queen?” 

“Hmm? Oh, it’s nothing!” Chrysalis didn’t mind her drone/husband pausing his duties, and shot him a dismissive wave of her hoof. “Don’t worry, Shining. I was just thinking about how beautiful you’ll look by the time we conquer Canterlot~”

“T… Thank you, my Queen…” Shining hung his head with a bashful smile, and blushed profusely at the thought himself. “I… I really hope we can reclaim the castle soon. Y-You received my notes about the security details, right?”

“Yes, I have,” she said with a reassuring nod. “It seems that Celestia and Luna were able to increase their defenses against us after our wedding. But don’t you worry! I know we’ll be able to conquer those two cunts soon enough~”

Shining gave his “wife” a gracious smile, not minding her language at all as he nodded back to her. “That… T-That sounds wonderful, Chrysalis~”

“Indeed it does…” Chrysalis lit up her chitinous horn, using her magic to pull in the bloated stallion. Shining’s cracked hooves skidded across the dirtied floor, but he didn’t mind one bit while staring up at her dreamily. Despite how little she may have cared for Shining in a romantic sense (or even sexually, ironically enough), she still appreciated having a pony she could kiss on the lips whenever she pleased. Even though Cadance hadn’t come back yet to watch them, Chrysalis decided to throw her little bitch a bone with a peck on the lips. “Mmuah~”

Shining’s face was a beet red when they pulled back, looking just as giddy as he did when Cadance first kissed him as a teenager. And considering how much love she sensed from him in that moment, Chrysalis was certain that he felt that way as well. “So, Shining…” Chrysalis narrowed her eyes on him, and smiled devilishly as she brushed her hoof along his chubby cheeks. “How about the two of us go upstairs for a little while to--”

*FWOOM!!!*

The sound of a magical rip caused Chrysalis and Shining to perk their heads quickly. Despite his figure no longer being suitable for combat, the jiggly stallion tried his best to stand defensively in front of Chrysalis. Meanwhile, the Queen grinned in satisfaction when she recognized the bright green portal that was being conjured in the middle of the Throne Room. “Ooh, Sunburst and Cadance came back! That was quick~”

Shining relaxed and sighed in relief. “Oh, awesome! I was hoping to see Twily again.”

“Well, let’s just see who’s coming back with them first…”

The portal opened up to quite a large degree, with several of Chrysalis’ drones stepping out of the way. Within the blank space surrounded by glowing green flames, Sunburst was the first to trot into the Throne Room. He pranced with a cheerful smile on his face, and a thick rope held in his aura. Much to Chrysalis’ surprise, the stallion’s rope was tied into a massive lasso, with dozens of former Royal Guards stumbling into the room behind him. All of them were still wearing their clanky armor; however, all of their eyes were glowing a bright shade of green to accentuate the blank smiles on their faces. 

“Great news, Queen Chrysalis! Cadance and I managed to apprehend thirty-three of Celestia’s Guards at Twilight’s castle! And that brainwashing spell worked perfectly, I might add! I’ll just rope these guys into the Oviposition Room if that’s alright~”

“Oh, marvelous job, Sunburst!” Chrysalis and Shining both clapped their hooves in celebration of such a large haul. “And you better get a seat for yourself in that room as well, young stallion. You earned it~”

Sunburst gasped in glee, and gave a hard yank of his rope to get the dozens of ponies to follow. “You heard her, everypony! Follow ME!!~” As the stallion giddily left the Throne Room, all of the Guards gave weak “Yays” in unison as they blindly went with him. 

Shining rubbed his foreleg with a jealous wince, but he couldn’t deny how impressive Sunburst’s catch really was. Meanwhile, Chrysalis grinned even wider as she stared back at the portal, and watched Cadance walk her way through. “Oh, there you are… Did my little slut manage to do something useful for a change?~”

When she re-entered the Throne Room, Cadance was trying her best to keep an optimistic grin on her face. Her saddlebags hung rather heavily atop her back, indicating that she brought back much more than those tools she and Sunburst used to claim their prizes. It didn’t take long for Chrysalis to notice the headcount of prisoners she returned with. In the Ex-Princess’ aura, only five metal chains were connected to collars on all five of Twilight’s fellow elements. As for Spike, who was having difficulty waddling into the room while bloated with that egg, he didn’t need any restraints as he followed Cadance willingly. The little dragon had a blissfully content smile on his face, and his little cock was still rock-hard and leaking more precum.

“Hmmmm…” Chrysalis leaned back in her seat, her smile lessening as she stared at Cadance judgmentally. While the former Princess stood in slight worry, Shining Armor sat right beside Chrysalis’ throne like an obedient pet. Just behind Cadance, the five captured Elements didn’t try to resist at all while chained and leashed in her magic. In fact, despite how strongly they all resented Chrysalis for years following the Royal Wedding fiasco, there didn’t appear to be a single bitter face among the five standing with eager blushes. They all had their heads lowered submissively, and were gazing up at the Queen for her approval. 

The portal slowly closed up behind them, leaving the group all trapped in Chrysalis’ domain. The Queen’s expression soured even more, not needing to ask where one particular pony may have been. Instead, she glared down at Cadance and asked firmly, “What happened?”

With a sharp, almost sobbing exhale, Cadance dropped herself at Chrysalis’ hooves in a dire bow. Some muffled clanging could be heard from her saddlebags, which were clearly weighing down the Alicorn’s back. “P-Please forgive me, Queen Chrysalis! Sunburst and I had all of them, I swear! We did everything you asked of us, and then some! I-It was right when we were about to leave that--”

“SILENCE!!!”

Cadance, as well as all of the captured Elements, winced and averted their eyes from Chrysalis’ bitter stare. Spike, who had already proven himself for the Queen’s approval, was weaving from side to side as his tiny feet shuffled bow-leggedly to her throne and sat beside his brother; Shining took that moment to hug the dragon dearly, nuzzling him with a gracious smile. “I’m so glad to see you.” he whispered. “How do you feel?~”  Spike, moaned softly, enjoying the warm and affectionate hug. He placed his claws on his belly, feeling the circumference of the egg stretching his belly. 

“Like a mother dragon~” he answered.

Meanwhile, Chrysalis waited a moment while her hoof was raised to contemplate how to respond to Cadance’s incompetence. When she finally stepped up from her seat, Cadance whimpered pathetically on the floor in front of her. But alas, there was nothing the Alicorn could do when Chrysalis walked up to her, and placed a hoof atop her back.

“It’s alright, Cadance…”

Her eyes shot wide-open, and she needed a blink a couple times before peering up at her puzzledly. “W… W-What?”

“It’s okay,” repeated the Queen, showing Cadance a surprisingly genuine smile as she rubbed her back. “Believe me, I know how difficult it can be to turn some ponies to the right side. I’ve made that same mistake with Twilight Sparkle before. I promise you I’m not mad…” 

Cadance nodded her head weakly, but she still looked very fearful by the time Chrysalis pulled her hoof away. It wasn’t until the Queen walked past her that she was able to sigh in relief, her body still bowed to the floor. “Besides,” continued Chrysalis as she turned her focus towards all five of Twilight’s chained friends. “The two of you still managed to take her castle, her Guards, AND all her ‘Element’ friends in less than two hours. I might not be happy about that bitch escaping me again, but... you certainly made it harder for her to fight back~”

Chrysalis’ cruel words could certainly be heard by the Elements, as their ears twitched uncomfortably in silence. But with their muzzles tightly shut, and their blushes masking the optimistic looks on their faces, Chrysalis could tell that those pheromones certainly took hold of all their minds. She took another moment to admire all of them standing before her, and huffed with an amused smirk. “Jeeze, I can’t imagine how badly Twilight is going to handle being all alone…”

The Queen chuckled with a shake of her head, knowing that the withdrawal symptoms of her pheromones would make a junkie look dignified in comparison. She was sure that Twilight would find some way to counteract it, but she still wished she could see how badly the Princess would suffer without her precious friends. But with the rest of the Elements all standing for attention, Chrysalis grew a more intrigued smirk when she addressed them. “So, little ponies… did you all enjoy watching your dragon friend get an egg for himself?~”

All of them lowered their heads sheepishly, but still nodded in embarrassed silence. They could all see Spike laying beside Shining by her throne, with the stallion rubbing his swollen belly in admiration. The Elements all groaned with skewed muzzles and envious glances, hating that he was the only one among them to get such a good filling. But with Chrysalis standing in front of them, they all remained silent and hopeful for their turn to come next. 

Chrysalis’ smile grew more sinister. “Well, I must say, it’s very nice to have you all decide to come out here to visit me… Does that mean that you all forgive me for our past discrepancies?~”

There were a couple of nervous gulps among them, since they knew that “forgiving” an enemy like Chrysalis was equivalent to slapping Celestia in the face. However, none of them tried to shake their heads either. Chrysalis took that moment to widen her gait a little, which allowed for her fat ovipositor to slip out from between her legs like a thick horsecock. All five of them gasped when they saw that meaty appendage, and they quickly nodded their heads up at her grinning face. “Y-Yes, yes!” blurted Rainbow Dash quite frantically. “W-We forgive you, we’re totally cool now!!”

“Y-YES!” Rarity tried to shoot the Queen a desperately wide smile to show her sincerity. “T-That’s what friends do! The past is in the past!”

A few more rushed nods and “Mmmhmms” among the group were given, which made Chrysalis sigh in sweet satisfaction. Seeing how desperately they were acting, it was hard to believe that they caused so much trouble for her in the years that passed. But in their current afflicted states, Chrysalis was rather eager to test just how badly they’ll follow her every whim.

“Oh, that’s so nice to hear from all of you,” she said with a faux-thankful jeer through her saccharine smile. “Although… it’s quite a shame that your ‘friend’ Twilight decided to ditch all of you like that…”

All five of their heads dropped guiltily, still feeling conflicted about Twilight’s successful escape. Chrysalis took a moment to glance back at Spike, and shouted out, “Hey, DRAGON! Do you miss that selfish ‘Princess’ after she left without my eggs?~”

“Hmm?” Spike was resting against Shining’s side with a groggy smile, savoring that egg like he just devoured a banquet of the finest gems by himself. But even in his satisfied state, the dragon was quick to shrug and shake his head. “Ehhh… I guess not? I mean… I wish she was here, but…”

“Ssshhhhhh…” Shining hugged Spike tightly and nuzzled him in reassurance. “It’s alright, little guy. We’ll get an egg in her soon enough~”

“We certainly will,” confirmed Chrysalis, before she turned her attention back to the other Elements. “But in the meantime… I don’t think it would be a good idea to associate with somepony like her anymore. After all, she didn’t want any of you to get an egg of mine~”

That last part was effective enough to get the fear in all five of the mares. They tensed up with worrisome winces, and nodded frantically to Chrysalis’ point. “R-Right, right!” yelped Applejack as she stared up at her wide-eyed. “We… W-We won’t talk to her until she agrees to join us! P-Promise!”

“Oh, but I don’t think that will be enough…” Chrysalis stepped in closer towards the five, her imposing presence causing them all to hunker lower in their chains. Even Rainbow Dash was whimpering like a little wimp as she eyed that thick ovipositor dangling beneath the Queen’s barrel. Chrysalis’ smile morphed to a firm glare, which matched her unwavering tone of voice. “I’m sure that all of you are fully aware of how significantly Twilight’s powers improve with her friendships. And if you want any chance of her crawling back to me, she needs to know that none of you will support her until she does.”

All their eyes widened in shock, and they gawked up at the Queen when the realization began to set in. Fluttershy’s muzzle trembled a little as it opened up, and she asked meekly, “You… Y-You mean we have to… s-stop being friends with her?”

“Only until she apologizes to me personally, and begs to be a brood-mare like all of you.” She could tell how badly that condition would get to them, and she turned herself around while they all brooded to themselves uncomfortably. “Of course, if you feel that Twilight is more important to you than letting me lay my eggs inside of you--”

“NOOOO!!!”

Chrysalis smirked out of their lines of sight, with only Shining able to see her and give an approving nod. When she turned around to face the Elements, they were all cowering to her hooves with desperate looks in their eyes. “P-Please don’t leave us!” shouted Pinkie needily. “I’ll be sad!” 

Rarity screamed “We’ll do ANYTHING!!” 

“We swear, TOTALLY!!” Rainbow Dash tried to hold onto one of Chrysalis’ hooves, with Fluttershy clinging to the other. “W-We already came all the way out here! You can’t just leave us hanging like that!”

“Oh, I can’t?~” Chrysalis shot her a sly, shit-eating grin without a shred of sympathy. “Do you want me to prove how easily I could?”

Rainbow Dash wilted like a fallen leaf, her muzzle trembling like she was about to cry. Applejack tried to intervene with a hoof cautiously raised. “P-Please Chrysalis! Ah… Ah’m willin’ to hear ya out if it means we’re all satisfied, okay?”

“Hmph…” Chrysalis turned to face the farmpony directly, making sure she was able to see how rigid her ovipositor could get beneath her torso. The thick, blooming head smacked against the underside of her barrel, which caused Shining and Cadance to let out shuddering groans upon hearing the meaty slaps. Applejack’s muzzle hung open as she stared at the ovipositor so blatantly, a trickle of drool already beginning to seep out. Chrysalis could feel the wave of silence from all the other friends, who were also staring at her without any shame. She smirked down at Applejack and asked, “Correct me if I’m wrong, but… you were the first pony to leave Twilight back at that wedding, weren’t you?~”

Applejack cringed. Hard. For years, the mare never thought she’d forgive herself for turning on Twilight so easily. But even with the very source of that turmoil standing right before her, AJ seemed more afraid of the Queen’s response than her own shame. “U-U-Uhhhh… Ah… Ah may have?”

“Oh, you don’t have to be so upset about that little incident, Applejack…” Chrysalis reached down, and graced Applejack’s cheek with a gentle caress of her chitinous hoof. The Queen stared deeply in the pony’s natural green eyes, and she spoke with a sensual tone of voice. “After all… any ‘friend’ who rejects my eggs shouldn’t be a friend of yours. Right?”

Applejack shuddered in the changeling’s embrace, and nodded her head faintly while staring down at that waiting appendage. “... R… R-Right…”

“That’s better~” Chrysalis then walked away from the mare, leaving her to wince painfully at that wonderfil ovipositor leaving her presence. None of the other Elements tried to speak up about what was being said; in fact, all of them seemed to be thinking really hard about what they would need to do to appease this fruitful Queen. Chrysalis walked back towards the former Princess, and gave her rump a swift kick so she could stand back up. “CADANCE! Did you get the items I requested from the Elements?”

“Y-Y-YES!! Yes I did!” Cadance instantly jolted back onto her hooves, and stood with a triumphantly wide grin. She lit up her horn to take off her saddlebags, and floated it to her Queen. “Before we used the portal, I had all of Twilight’s friends grab an item from her bedroom that meant a lot to them. I was hoping Twilight would do the same, but uhhhh… w-well, you know…”

Before Cadance could start looking guilty again, Chrysalis smiled as she peered into the bags. “Oh, this will do quite nicely! Thank you, Miss Cadance…”

Chrysalis took the bag back towards the Elements, and shouted out, “DRAGON! Come over here as well!”

“EEP!!” Spike practically had to roll away from the throne to get closer to Chrysalis, despite already being filled to the brim. Cadance took that moment to sneak back to the throne herself, and sit on the opposite side where Shining was posted. By the time Spike waddled back to stand alongside the captured ponies, all of them were blushing hard and standing for attention. Chrysalis pulled out the tools Cadance and Sunburst had already used, which left only the items that the Elements brought back from Twilight’s castle. The Queen used her magic to start another recording from the camcorder, which she levitated out of the way so it could record the six prisoners from up above. 

“Now, before we begin… I’d like each of you to identify which gift you brought back from that pesky Princess~”

The first item Chrysalis pulled out was a plain yellow dress, which caused Rarity to lift her hoof. “Oh! I… I made that for Twilight as a birthday present a few years ago. I… I remember she really loved it…” She then lowered her head timidly, biting her lip when she saw it held so tightly in Chrysalis’ hoof.

“Alright then…” Chrysalis tossed the dress to Rarity, and reached back into the bag to get something else. “Oh, here’s Spike’s ‘Royal Advisor’ medal! I don’t need to ask who got that…”

She handed the medal to Spike, who held it dearly against his bloated torso. Chrysalis then pulled out a thick, vintage-looking book with Daring Do’s face engraved in the faux-leather binding. That caused Rainbow Dash to shout out, “T-That’s my contribution, Chrysalis! I gave it to her as a Hearth’s Warming gift.”

“How thoughtful,” she replied flatly, before tossing the book at the pegasus. She reached back in the bag, and tilted her head in amusement. “My goodness! What a cute little scrapbook~”

“Ooh, that’s mine!” chirped Pinkie Pie excitedly. “I made that for her with pictures of all of us together! It took a really long time to make!”

“Well, that’ll make this test much more noble for you~” Chrysalis handed Pinkie the scrapbook, reveling in the pony’s confused expression. The next item she found was a beautifully made scarf, knitted with yarn that matched Twilight’s colors perfectly. Chrysalis would’ve expected Rarity to have made that, but didn’t judge when Fluttershy raised her hoof silently. Instead, the Queen nodded and gave her the garment. “And I’ll make sure to remember how well you can knit, young lady~”

Fluttershy nodded graciously, happy to hear Chrysalis’ praises. That left only one item in the bag, which belonged to Applejack. When she pulled it out, she was surprised to discover it was an old dinner plate, which already had a sizable crack along one of the sides. It also had a hoof-painted apple in the middle, which had faded after years of use. Chrysalis stared back at Applejack in puzzlement, not expecting such a basic item from the last Element. However, AJ could only shuffle her hooves awkwardly and try to explain herself.

“That… That was the plate Ah used to serve Twilight and Spike my family’s dishes when they first came to Ponyville. After we all became such good friends, Ah… I figured she would appreciate havin’ something to show how much she meant to me that day…”

The farmpony smiled to herself after being given the plate, with the rest of her friends shrugging in understanding. None of them were informed as to why they needed to bring those items from Twilight’s castle; however, none of them tried to dispute Chrysalis’ order either.

“Now then…” Chrysalis tossed Cadance’s bag aside, while she and Shining watched intently from beside the Queen’s throne. She grew a wide, haughty grin before the six captured prisoners, while her ovipositor continued to smack rigidly against her chest. All of them were having difficulty focusing as they stared between the Queen’s confident smile, and that thick appendage drooling with her pheromone-laden juices. Even Spike could be heard gulping audibly, his eyes pinned on the Queen’s glowing midsection as he envisioned how many eggs were currently waiting to be laid. 

“Right now, all of you are holding an item that bears a strong connection between yourself and Twilight Sparkle…” Chrysalis’ grin turned more obscene, and a malicious gleam could be seen in her insectoid eyes. “If you wish to carry my eggs, you each must do two things for me. First… You have to swear your allegiance to me, and declare that you no longer represent the nation of Equestria…”

The idea of betraying their own country may have been a tall order to give, but all of them gave meek nods in understanding. However, all of their eyes widened when Chrysalis said her next requirement with narrowing eyes, and that video camera floating in closer beside her. 

“And secondly… you must declare that Twilight is no longer your friend, and destroy the item you’re holding to prove it~”

Back at the throne, Shining and Cadance gave each other a couple of surprised “O” mouthed expressions. The six standing before Chrysalis all needed a second to look down at the items they were holding, biting their lips when they realized how much the price of those eggs would really be. Chrysalis kept a confident grin on her face, and stood on her hind-legs so her ovipositor would stand fully erect. All of their bodies locked up at seeing her in such a stance, their faces no longer showing much conflict. In fect, they all stood silently when they heard Chrysalis command, “Swear your allegiance~”

With that big, meaty ovipositor standing for attention, all six of them shouted out at the same time, “I DECLARE MY ALLEGIANCE TO QUEEN CHRYSALIS!!!”

“See how easy that is? You’re partially there already…” Chrysalis managed to walk surprisingly well on her hind-legs, and stepped up towards Spike first. “Now… What do you say about Equestria and its Princess?~”

Spike cringed uncomfortably, but he knew he already made the plunge back when he got his first egg. Because of that, he only needed to take a deep breath before holding his medal up. “I… I’m no longer a citizen of Equestria! And… A-And Twilight Sparkle isn’t my friend!!!”

He blew a sharp, heavy blast of his fire breath directly on the medal, causing the ribbon to light up instantly. Several seconds of constant heat were all that was needed to make the golden metal melt in the dragon’s claw, before dripping off and sizzling on the crystal floor. With all the Elements watching in awe, Twilight’s former assistant turned her prized gift to him into a puddle of molten nothingness.

“Wonderful!” Chrysalis then walked up to Fluttershy, who was holding her scarf with a pained wince. However, the Queen didn’t need to repeat her order before Fluttershy complied. 

“A-Alright! I… I…” Fluttershy stood up on her hind-legs as well, and shuddered when she saw that ovipositor pointed right at her. As soon as the blooming head opened up a little, the pegasus breathed out and grew a more determined look. “I… I’m not an Equestrian anymore! I follow Queen Chrysalis, and not Twilight!”

With all her might, Fluttershy ripped the scarf in half with her hooves. The yarn stretched out and snapped apart, before she grabbed more pieces and pulled them apart as well. The pegasus had her muzzle skewed slightly, but Chrysalis didn’t mind by the time she saw all those torn pieces of yarn leave a pile on the floor by Fluttershy’s hooves. “Hmph…”

Chrysalis only needed to shoot a stare towards Pinkie Pie, who stood up on her hind-legs to follow Fluttershy’s actions. “Nnnghh… E-Equestria is no longer my home! And Twilight is NOT my friend!” With her desperation clear on her face, Pinkie frantically ripped apart several pages of the scrapbook from the hoof-made binder. In less than a minute, many scraps of torn paper and destroyed photos scattered the ground beside Fluttershy’s scarf. She even shouted over to Spike, “Burn it, PLEASE! BURN IT NOW!!”

Spike complied with a quick exhale, causing Fluttershy and Pinkie to jolt back from his massive gust of flames. In an instant, both of the mare’s gifts were destroyed beyond repair before the remaining Elements’ eyes. Rarity quickly tossed her dress into the flames, and shouted out, “S-Same for me! I’m no longer an Equestrian, NOR a friend of Twilight Sparkle!!”

Chrysalis nodded with a wide, sinister grin as she stood back and marveled at how quickly they were all complying. Rainbow Dash was already ripping out pages from the expensive book, trying her best to throw them into Spike’s flames. “Oh, screw it! I’d rather have the eggs than Twilight OR Equestria! I choose YOU over them, Chrysalis! ANY DAY!”

By the time they were all finished, all that was left was Applejack and her plate. The pony held onto it for a moment, her eyes closed as she tried to think for herself. But with Chrysalis standing right in front of her, and the ovipositor pointed right at her face, Applejack only needed to open her eyes before holding the plate up. 

“If… If that’s what it takes, then…” AJ clenched her eyes shut, and stood on her hind-legs to shout out, “E… Equestria and Twilight are DEAD TO ME!!” And just like a wedding celebration, Applejack smashed that plate on the floor. The ceramic shattered into hundreds of pieces, not needing any further damage from Spike’s flames. 

“Hehehehehe… HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAA!!!” Chrysalis cackled and threw her head back in absolute glee. Just like when she conquered the Crystal Empire in a matter of minutes, the satisfaction Chrysalis felt was absolutely unparalleled. She may have not had Twilight Sparkle begging at her hooves just yet, but getting all her friends to disown her for eggs was just as gratifying. The Queen needed to close her eyes to savor the moment, and took a deep breath before sighing deeply. “Aaaaaahhhhh… Oh, I can’t wait for Twilight to see a recording of that~”

When she turned back to the six Ex-Friends, they were all standing with their items destroyed at their hooves, and their attention pointed solely at their Queen. Chrysalis used her magic to unlatch all of their metal collars, trusting them enough to remain at place without their chains. And with the video camera still recording the group’s downfall, all that Chrysalis needed to do was give a spinning motion with her hoof and command firmly, “Present yourselves~”

With a round of elated moans and gracious thanks, they all eagerly turned themselves around for the Queen’s ovipositor. All five of the mares bent over like a group of harlots, their tails flagged up high to show off their dripping wet pussies. Even Spike bent himself over, even though the shell of his egg could still be seen peeking through his hole when he used both claws to spread his cheeks. “Aaaahhh!~”

“Oh, look at all of the options before me! Soooo many holes to deposit my eggs…” Chrysalis remained standing on her hind-legs, and she glanced down at her phallic-shaped ovipositor with a contemplative hum. Even though she could easily just fill them one at a time, she wasn’t willing to hear the rest whining out like needy bitches all throughout. Not to mention, the Queen happened to know of a special trick she wanted to use for such an occasion. “Well, lucky for all six of you,” she said in a deep, lustful tone as she lit up her horn brightly. “I happened to develop a special technique that can satisfy all of you at once~”

With a sharp flash of her magic, Chrysalis lit up her thick appendage so it was glowing a bright shade of green. All six of the presented bitches couldn’t help looking back at her in awe, their eyes wide-open and their mouths agape. The Queen’s magic coarse through every inch of her ovipositor, with several bright lines trailing down the shaft from those blooming bulbs. Chrysalis shivered with her head pulled back, and her eyes clenched tightly shut. Meanwhile behind the glowing Queen, Cadance and Shining leaned in with enamored looks of surprise themselves. 

“NNNGHHHHH!!!~”

With another flash of her ghastly green aura, her ovipositor split apart into several smaller, but fully functional appendages that spread out to the same length as before. Each one of the thin, wriggling tubes looked like tentacles at first glance; however, they all quickly sprouted out individual heads that bloomed out like the original one. All six of the inductees’ faces lit up excitedly, realizing that their Queen now had a full array of tentacle-like ovipositors to deliver eggs at a faster rate. Even Cadance and Shining had their muzzles dropped to the floor, never having guessed that Chrysalis had a trick like that up her sleeve.

“Nnnnghhhhh… Oooooohhhh, I’m sooooooo glad I had enough magic to do that…” Chrysalis reopened her eyes tiredly, clearly having been drained by converting so much of her magic towards that kind of transformation. But when she glanced down at her new arrangement, she grinned at the sight of six individual ovipositors providing the same job as just one. And with the right amount of incubators presented right before her, any fatigue she may have felt was quickly extinguished, and replaced with a randy shiver. “Nnnfffff~ Now this is what I call an upgrade!”

Chrysalis lunged in without warning, with each of her six tentacles clinging to one of the moaning Ex-Heroes. Cadance and Shining could only watch in envious glee as the blooming heads clamped to each of the mares’ winking pussies, with thick bulges of the Queen’s eggs slowly sliding down the thin shafts. In the case of Spike, who was already stuffed pretty bad from the back, Chrysalis’ final ovipositor wrapped around to clamp over the dragon’s mouth. The sensation may have been surprising to Spike, but he was quick to accept the arrangement with a muffled moan as his eyes rolled back blissfully. 

“NNNNNGHHH!!!~” Chrysalis gave a hard push, which filled each of the six thin tubes with multiple sizable bulges of her glowing brood. The thick, throbbing eggs worked their way down the freshly-made ovipositors, while the former Elements all moaned out with glee and awaited their shared stuffing. A couple of them were trying to look back and watch those glowing eggs moving in, seeing just how many each of them were bound to get before the day was over. Meanwhile, some of the others had their eyes tightly shut as they awaited those wonderful shells pressing up against their most sensitive regions. 

“AAAAHHHH!!”
“EEEEPPP!!!~”
“Oooh, I feel it!! I FEEL IT GOING IN!!~”
“MMPHHH!!~”

One by one, each of Twilight Sparkle’s former friends were solidified into Chrysalis’ clutches the moment they felt her eggs slipping through their hungry orifices. Applejack was the first to experience the taboo egg-laying, as she moaned out deeply from her marehood being spread wide-open. The sensation of Chrsyalis’ warm, pulsating egg cramming its way through her walls left her fur standing on end, and her hooves to clutch the ground beneath her helplessly. Halfway through that first strenuous stretching, Applejack’s ears twitched when she overheard the hefty moans of Rarity and Rainbow Dash coming out in near-unison. AJ instinctively reached out to grab both of their hooves, which lead to all six of them holding onto one another in solidarity. 

Pinkie Pie shrieked out gleefully as a thick, cantaloupe-sized egg stretched open her walls. Her legs contorted strongly from such a brutal stretch, but she still moaned out in ecstasy for more to follow suit. Spike’s entire body convulsed violently as a thick egg shoved its way down his throat, bloating it out and blocking his breathing for a moment. He gripped Pinkie’s hoof tighter in his claw, tensing up more and more as the egg opened his face to such an extreme degree. Luckily, by the time the egg settled atop the first inside of him, his overstuffed body was able to breathe just enough through Chrsyalis’ ovipositor to cry out for another. 

Fluttershy’s ovipositor proved to be the most fruitful, as an egg the size of a prize-winning watermelon worked its way towards her hungry pussy. The pegasus had her lip bitten tightly as she watched excitedly, gripping Rarity and Pinkie’s hooves and hearing their orgasmic moans of rapture. She may have been the last one to receive an egg, but she couldn’t have cared less when she saw how gargantuan it was. Even Chrysalis took notice of that particular egg, and watched intently with a curious smirk. “Nnnnnghhh… If you can actually take that thing, I’ll try to find you something bigger later on~”

That promise was enough to make Fluttershy shriek out elatedly, and push her rump closer to that heavy bulge working its way in. By the time that massive egg pressed up against her marehood, Fluttershy was finally able to moan out alongside her friends. The thick shell took its sweet time opening the pegasus up, pushing in inch-by-inch to stretch out her walls and ruin her for any stallion afterward. But much to Chrysalis’ surprise and approval, all that Fluttershy could do was push herself harder against the egg and growl out eagerly. “Nnnnghhh!! C-Come on, Chrysalis! K… K-Keep pushing!! I want it so bad… I WANT IT SO BAAAADDD!!!~”

Chrysalis complied with another hearty push, which shoved more of her remaining brood into each ovipositor. The additional force crammed more eggs into each of them, intensifying their moans and bloating out their stomachs. Spike’s eyes nearly bulged out of his head as his body swole out like elastic, and more of the bulges of her glowing brood shone through his scales. Meanwhile, some of the mares beside him were already appearing pregnant from the thick eggs working their way into all those open wombs. 

“AaaaaaAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!~” Fluttershy’s cries echoed out loudly across the Throne Room, and her pussy was given the most brutal stretching from Chrysalis’ thickest egg yet. By the time it finally slipped in with a wet slurp, Fluttershy’s hind-legs couldn’t even touch the ground. She was resting right on her bloated belly, which appeared just as stuffed with the egg as Spike did back in the castle. Every nerve in her body was tingling like mad, and her muzzle hung open with thick strings of drool trickling out. But even as her body looked like it was wrapped around the egg like a condom, she continued to moan out as another heavy bulge worked its way towards her entrance. 

“Yeeeeesssssss… Stuff yourselves to the brims, little slaves…” Chrysalis reveled in her victorious moment, and stood triumphantly over her former foes as she kept pushing more eggs through the ovipositors. The tentacles were continuously moving about wildly, and pumping those thick bulges of glowing eggs towards each of the willing incubators before them. Even as the ponies’ walls began to stretch past their limits, and hooves began to lift up from the floor due to their expanding torsos, Chrysalis kept pushing to ensure none of them would be able to run away. “Isn’t this much nicer than pretending to have a ‘Purpose’ back in Equestria? Now that you’re all here, I’ll make sure everypony knows how ‘Heroic’ you really are~”

Chrysalis began to laugh maniacally, intensifying with every hard push she gave through her ovipositors. The camcorder continued to run and record all of their intense stuffings, getting many close-ups of the former heroes as it floated in Chrysalis’ aura. Some of the bulbs broke apart from the Ex-Heroes’ orifices when they reached their limits; however, Chrysalis’ magic was quick to instinctively move the tentacle-like tubes towards the mares’ open mouths. Even Spike was given another hole for his own ovipositor, as the bulbs wrapped tightly around the dragon’s little cock to make use of his urethra. All of their bodies continued to swell out, and new holes were discovered to deposit as many of Chrysalis’ eggs as she could give. Minutes of limitless pleasure soon melded into hours, with Chrysalis refusing to give any reprieve as she watched her former adversaries succumb to her pheromones without any chance of salvation.

While the Queen went to work immobilizing all of Twilight’s former friends, bloating them out into near-unrecognizable egg-sacks, Cadance and Shining eventually sat side-by-side to watch the carnage together. The ex-couple may have lost all feelings for one another, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t marvel at their Queen’s work while pleasuring themselves. Shining was furiously jerking his altered cock, with thick globs of his cum drooling down his blooming head instead of shooting out. Meanwhile, Cadance tried her best to moan silently as she dug into her pussy with a hoof, and watched all of her sister-in-law’s former friends discovering pleasures too wonderful to describe.

“Mmmmmm… Oh, Shining…” The sound of Cadance’s lustful moan was enough to make Shining glance at her briefly. The Ex-Princess continued to eye Chrysalis intently, and she licked her drooling lips before moaning out, “I… I want our daughter back so bad… I want her to feel this just as much as they are~”

The Ex-Prince nodded sweetly at his former wife, and said in response, “Yeah… I hope my sister can come to her senses about this as well~”

The two stared back at their glorious Queen, their clouded minds thinking only of what their future will hold. With the Elements of Harmony disbanded so effectively, neither of them were too worried about how Twilight Sparkle will handle things on her own. They may have not known where she could be, or how many others would need to be inducted before their Queen’s victory was confirmed for Equestria as a whole. But as they continued to hear Chrysalis’ sinister laughter, as well as the Elements’ muffled moans growing more faint from the onslaught of eggs flooding their bodies, neither of them felt any remorse or uncertainty for what was to come next…


The End
