What happens when ponies fall into a conflict between law and justice? Will they return home the same? Or even at all?
Yet again Twilight is messing with pre Equestrian magic. And this time, the price is a trip to another universe for some of her friends. Things go from bad to worse when they end get divided between two groups on separate sides of the law. The worse is yet to come.
On the upside, they get different tech styled outfits.
Warning: This story will get very dirty very fast.
Edits: I should point out that Pinkie won't be included. Because she'd be OP.
It started out like any other day in Ponyville. The girls were enjoying a picnic with their little sisters. When a sudden series of twitches came over Pinkie. The mare became stiff as a board. Her eyes scanned her friends in fear. Something very bad was coming.
It was at that time that a local mailpony came over and gave Twilight a letter.
Once the stallion had left, the friends gathered to read the letter.
"Don't read it." Pinkie begged.
"It's just a letter." Twilight protested.
"But the twitch." Pinkie warned.
As the girls looked in shock, Twilight rolled her eyes. "What can go wrong from reading a letter?"
"Didn't you get our cutie marks mixed up because you 'just read' a page from an old book?" Rainbow countered.
After a moment's thought, Twilight sighed. "Fine. I'll read it quietly. And then tell you what it says… not word for word. Deal?"
Everypony, but Pinkie nodded in agreement. Said pony just whimpered in fear as Twilight looked over the letter.
"Looks like it's an invitation to the adventure of a lifetime." Twilight explained. "But I don't know this last word…"
"What is it?" Scootaloo asked, hopping onto Rainbow's back.
"Don't." Pinkie pleaded.
"V… valoosh?" Twilight said softly.
The girls gasped in shock as smoke started coming from the paper. Taken off guard, Twilight was the first. Followed by Rainbow Dash as she was attempting to save Scootaloo from the smoke.
Pinkie dove for Fluttershy but slid to a stop before falling into the smoke herself. Turning, she watched in fear as the apple sisters were next to be taken. Sweetie Belle rushed for her sister. Just as they hugged, the smoke covered them.
Pinkie looked around as the smoke got closer. Hanging her head, she was ready for what was coming. Much to her surprise, however, two stallions and Spike landed in the smoke's path.
Hopping off one of the stallions, Spike looked around. "What is this?" Before he got a response, it covered him and the two stallions. Moments later, the smoke dissipated.
Watching the last of the smoke faid, Pinkie sighed. "Please… let my twitch be wrong… just this once."
A white stallion made his way over with an apologetic smile. "You know your twitch is never wrong."
"But… my friends…" She whimpered, not having the strength to look up at the stallion.
"I… may have an idea." He muttered, turning away and rubbing his chin. "Though I don't know how that'd help."
"Can I help my friends?"
"Not directly." He replied with a smile.
The reaction was instantaneous. Springing to her feet, Pinkie turned to him with a large smile. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's get going. I don't want to miss the adventure." Laughing, the stallion led her down to the lake.
"Beats me." Rainbow replied. "I can't see anything."
Applejack slowly tried to get to her feet. A few seconds later she fell on her face. "What the hay happened? Why aren't my legs…" sitting back, she looked in shock and confusion at what once was her hands.
"What's wrong AJ?" Rainbow asked before freezing at the sight.
The two friends looked at each other for a moment. As Applejack was about to scream, Rainbow Dash quickly lunged forward and instinctively covered her mouth.
After a few moments she pulled away she let out a sigh as Applejack relaxed. "Ok.. what the hay is going on?"
"I don't know. But wherever we are. We have to find the others." Rainbow replied. "Any ideas?"
Applejack took a deep breath and shook her head. "Without anypony to give us a hoof." She paused and looked at what was her hoof. "Or whatever you call these. We're lost."
The two sighed and slumped for a moment before staffing as something was pressed against both of their heads. "Buck." They mouthed.
Unknown location two Twilight moaned and slowly sat up. "Ouch…" Blinking, she looked around, then at her hands. "This again?" She sighed before rubbing her forehead. "Wait… my… horn?" She quickly reached back and blinked in shock at the feel of her wings. "This is new."
"Twilight?" Fluttershy whimpered from nearby.
"Fluttershy? Are you ok?" Twilight replied as she looked around desperately.
"Ummm… I think I'm trapped in a box…" She replied.
Twilight giggled at that before following the voice. "Don't worry. I'll help you out. Just try to stay calm when you get out."
After Twilight managed to get the box open, Fluttershy looked up, then around before finally looking at herself. "Oh…my…" She squeaked, before passing out.
Letting out a deep sigh, Twilight tested her magic and smiled at seeing the glow cover her friend and lift her out of the box. "Well. At least that's some good news." Seconds later her magic sputtered out and dropped Fluttershy onto her. With a groan,Twilight sighed. "Or not."
After pulling herself out from under her friend, Twilight got up and looked around. "We have to find out where we are? And how we got here."
"I would like to know that too." A suave voice replied from a group or large metal two legged… things.
Unknown location three In a flash of light Spike and the two stallions fell onto a pile of pillows. Groaning, the dragon sat up and looked himself over. "I'm bigger? Cool!" He announced before looking over at the guys. "And… you two… look a bit different too."
"How so?" One asked.
"Well… Soren… you look like you're dressed like… I think they're called… in the army." Spike replied.
"What's that?" Soren asked.
"Human version of the Wonderbolts. But… you don't look human. More like a two legged you."
The two stallions sat up and looked at each other. Before they had a chance to react, Spike rushed over and covered their mouths. "Please don't scream." After a few moments of silence he sighed and removed his claws. "Good. Now…" He looked around in confusion. "Let's find out where we are."
The three looked over and saw a sign that had a blushing strawberry.
Location unknown Applejack and Rainbow sat frozen in place as a stern voice commanded. "How did you get on our ship?"
"Our ship?" Rainbow asked.
"Don't play stupid runner." The voice snapped.
"Sorry Sir!" Rainbow replied in reflex.
Before either said another word, Applejack spoke. "We were brought here by a magic scroll. We don't know why or what we became." She chanced a glance at their captor.
Beforethem stood a large, angry looking bipedal tiger. "You expect me to believe that?" He hissed, before turning to Rainbow. "Introduce yourself, soldier." He ordered.
"Rainbow Dash! Second lead pegasus of the 34 Wonderbolts flight core! Sir!" She replied giving a mock salute.
The Tigger relaxed little and asked in a more relaxed yet commanding toan. "Anything you want to add to her story?"
"We… weren't the only ones… sir. In total? Three pegasi, two earth ponies, two unicorns, and an alicorn. There were three fillies among us." She explained.
At hearing this he rushed to a nearby metal box thing on the wall. Pressing a button he called out. "All hands to cargo bay. Code missing U. Bring the kid."
A mix of shock and confusion crossed their expectations as Rainbow and Applejack looked at each other.
"Miss U?"
"Kid?"
Rainbow shot up and stumbled to a box and worked her way over to the tiger. "Sir. What are you talking about?"
"Missing U are confirmed unicorns that are unaccounted for." He explained. "And as for the kid." He smirked before turning to the door as it opened, revealing a female two legged fox next to a two legged male wolf.
Holding the wolf's hand was a girl in her early to mid teens. The two friends instantly recognized her pink bow and cried out in relief simultaneously.
"Apple Bloom!!!"
Unknown location two Twilight and Fluttershy sat at a table as the jackal thought about what Twilight told him. "Well. That is a lot of… interesting information."
"Maybe there's a place we can stay while you think it over?" Fluttershy suggested timidly.
"No need." He replied. "In fact. I may have an idea about how we can help each other." Getting up he smiled at them. "How would you like to help us keep the universe?"
"I don't know…" Twilight started.
"If you're looking for anyone, we can help." He added.
Fluttershy and Twilight looked at each other before nodding. "Thank you. What can we do to help?"
The jackal smiled. "Splendid. Now… tell me everything you can about your friends."
Fluttershy became nervous and hid behind her hair as Twilight took the lead and started talking about her friends and their abilities.
Unknown location three Spike and the two stallions got up and carefully made their way to the door that led out of whatever room they ended up in. As he went to open it, it swung open revealing a pegasus in her early twenties.
The three stepped back to avoid walking into her as she looked over her shoulder at someone. "Keep your pants on!" She called. "I'll be out after my break!"
The three guys couldn't believe their eyes. They recognized her hair and fur colors. But the last time they saw her, she was a few years younger and a lot less… well. They didn't know how to put it…
"Scootaloo?" Spike gasped.
Hearing the voice she turned and went slack jawed. "Spike?" With a flap of her wings she tackled him into the pillows. "Long time no see."
Soarin blinked and looked at the other stallion. "Hay Flash. Didn't Twilight say Scootaloo was in her teens?"
Flash nodded and looked between her and Spike. "Yeah… but she looks… older." He replied.
Hearing this Scootaloo sat up, holding a now blushing Spike to her chest. "Oh… about that. I… lied about my age. Kida embarrassing to be a flightless teen without a cutie mark." She shrugged. "Pluss. I was a late bloomer."
"Not that it's not great to see you too Scootaloo… but how long are you going to hold me like this?" Spike asked.
Giggling, Scootaloo let him go and plopped back on the pillows. "Sorry Spike. I just didn't know when I'd see any of you again."
"What do you mean?" Spike asked.
"When that smoke got us… I woke up here. The owner took me in. And we quickly found out… well… time displacement is apparently a tricky thing." She laughed.
"The boss?" Soren asked.
"Yea. But Don't worry. I'll let her know you're with me and you'll be good to go." Scootaloo confirmed. "And if you're here. Then there's a chance the others made it through too."
After Scootaloo got up she motioned for the guys to follow. "Oh and until she says you can use the pillow room. Do whatever she says."
"Why?" Spike asked as they entered the main room, in time to see a bull built like Bulk Biceps flying across the room. "Oh… Buck."
unknown spaceship Applejack and Rainbow hugged Apple Bloom in relief that she was OK as the wolf and vixen walked over to the tiger to talk quietly among themselves.
"I'm so happy you're alright, surgercue." Applejack gushed, her barely restrained tears threatening to flow like a waterfall.
"It's ok sis. I told him everything." Apple Bloom replied as she gasped for air.
Upon hearing this Rainbow pulled away and looked at her in shock. "You did what now? Bloom. We barely know these guys. What in Equestria makes you think we can trust them?"
"I'd hate to say it. But RD has a point." Applejack agreed. "What if these guys wanted to hurt us… or you for that matter?"
"If they wanted to. Don't you think they would have done that while you two took a nap?" Apple Bloom countered. The two looked at each other with a shared realization at that.
"Hun?... How long were we out for?" Applejack asked shakingly.
Apple Bloom thought for a moment before looking over to the other group. "Ummm… mister wolf? How long was I in your room?" She asked, causing the two friends to look at each other in shock. The wolf smiled at Apple Bloom and held up his hand to let her count. "Thank you sir." She called over before turning to her sister. "Four hours. You two must have been very sleepy." She teased.
After a moment the two joined in the joke and started laughing. None of them noticed as the trio came over to them till the vixen spoke. "I'd hate to put a damper on your happy moment. But we have a few things to talk about." She sighed. "So let's get the easy part done first. We're willing to help you find your friends. But that also means you have to follow the rules of the crew." Before any protests were said she held up a hand. "And don't worry. They're rather tame in comparison to most rules. The major one is 'what the captain says goes'. If you can follow that then you already will have a good chance at living long enough to see your friends."
Applejack and Rainbow looked at each other then nodded to her. "Good." The tiger laughed. "Rule two is learn fast or die slow." After a moment of thought he shrugged. "Though I guess that one is more of a guideline than a rule. Three is also simple. Don't touch anything you're not trained for. Trust me. You'll thank me later for that one."
"Why is that?" Apple Bloom asked sincerely. The three looked to each other for a moment before pointing to a scorch mark on the wall. No words had to be said to explain the rule any further. In the center of the mark was the clear silowet of what once appeared to be a young rabbit.
"I hope I don't have to tell you about knocking. " the tiger sighed, partly to refocus their attention and partly to change the subject. After getting shakes from the girls heads he nodded. "Good. Because when we're in our shops, it can get dangerous. And for the last rule. Two to a room. No exceptions… well… there is one. But I don't know if she's old enough where you're from."
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Applejack snapped, which only caused Rainbow to fall over in laughter. "What the hay is so funny Dash?" The vixen knelt down and whispered in her ear. "Oh… OH!!! y'all talking about sex? Shucks. I already know Bloom does it with her coltfriend… but I understand. And don't worry. I doubt she'd be crazy enough to do somethin like that here."
"You'd be surprised." The tiger groaned as he rolled his eyes. "Don't worry. We have a room for when folks act up."
Unable to resist the chance, Rainbow asked between bouts of laughter. "Do… do you guys… use it for…. Sex too?"
"The captain did a few times." The vixen admitted. "But those times are rare." At hearing this the two older ponies blushed at the thought. "So. Do you think you'll be able to follow these rules?"
The three nod, before Rainbow adds. "At least the first one." She laughed. Applejack laughed with her before shaking her head.
"Now that we know that you agree to the rules. Next is instructions." The vixen announced. "You can call me Psy. The big hairball here is Phantom. And our hound of a captain is Phoenix."
Phantom gave a hard nod and looked at them. "We already heard your names. So let's move on to your lessons." He first turned to Applejack. "Psy will teach you how to use your gear." He then looked at Apple Bloom and smiled. "How would you like me to teach you how to make a bomb?"
Apple Bloom lit up at the idea as Applejack snapped. "Oh no you don't you-" She was quickly silenced at what sounded like leather snapping forcing her to look at Phoenix in time to see his eyes narrow. "Sorry sir. But I don't feel right about my sis workin with somethin as dangerous as that."
"Don't worry. She's in the best hands you'll find to teach stuff like that." Psy explained. "Besides. It's either that or… she can be left in the captain's care until you finish your training."
"And how long will that take?"
"Depends. Do you know anything about technology?" Psy asked.
"Fine… wait what about Dash?"
"Does that mean I get to train with the captain?" Rainbow asked. All eyes look at the wolf who rubbed his chin before shrugging. "Sweet."
With a smile the three split up into their separate groups before Applejack asked. "Was there anything else we needed to talk about?"
"Later." Psy replied as they went to their separate stations. "So… how do you feel about being covered in highly flammable liquids?" She asked Applejack.
Rainbow looked at the wolf and smirked. "So… training first or chilling?"
Kitty's Doghouse Spike and the two stallions sat at the bar after closing as the owner, who they learned was happily named Kitty, served them drinks.
"So. You three know Scootaloo from back home?" She asked, and received nods in return. "Then you're welcome to stay as long as you want. Just know I'll be putting you boys to work…" She paused and looked past them at a large and clearly drunk bull stumbled back in. "What do you say you big guys show me what you got?"
The two stallions looked over at the bull then at each other. After a shared nod they got up and walked over to the big guy.
Soren smirked and leaned against a pillar as Flash calmly approached the bull. "This is going to be good." The Wonderbolt chuckled.
"Ok sir." Flash said softly. "I'm afraid I have to ask you nicely to-" Flash didn't finish as he was swiftly backhanded across the room. Much to Soren's and Scootaloo's amusement. Even Kittery giggled at that. "Let's… ouchOuch… try that again." He moaned as he got up and walked back over. "Sir I-" again he was cut off. This time crashing into a table.
Soren rolled his eyes before taking his turn. "Ok big guy. Get out." He ordered. He managed to duck under the attack. However, he quickly noticed that his punch did nothing but open himself up. "Buck…" He whimpered seeing the arm coming back around and knocking him in the other direction. Getting up Soren called to Scootaloo with a hand extended to her. "Scootaloo! Spear me!"
Scootaloo looked to her boss who passed her a pool stick the mare then tossed to Soren. "He's all yours!" She cheered.
This time when he approached, he readied the improv staff for the coming fight. He knew his mission. "Get the bull out of the bar." Secondary mission. "Do so with minimal damage done to the bar". It was a long shot. But he had one chance at pulling this off. With a few wing flaps, he sighed at his lack of flight and resorted to doing this the old fashioned way.
'Wide backhand for the head' duck 'followed by a tight swing for the gut' side step 'a second swing for the head' duck 'I'll aim for the gut first with the stick' jab 'while he's double over bring the stick to his head and knock him off balance' smack 'as he stumbles backwards deliver the final blow with a pole vault' kick.
The three watch the fight in different levels of amusement as Soren kicks the bull to the literal cerv. "Not bad. Maybe you should take one of the staffs out back." Kitty praised. "That way you don't Rick breaking all my poll sticks."
After helping Flash up, Soren smiled at her. "Thank you Kitty. I'd like that. But we really need to look for the others."
"You'll get better luck finding them if you stick around. News has a way of passing by my bar of such things." She cooed. "Now go pick out your stick while your friend cleans his mess."
Soren nodded and did as he was told while the former guard found himself demoted to the role of a janitor. "Yes mam…" He sighed before getting to work. His ear twitched hearing Kitty tell him where the tools are.
Scootaloo giggled before turning to Spike then Kitty. "What about Spike?"
"The dragon?" Kitty hummed to herself. Honestly, most of the jobs she had were filled… then again… "can he cook?"
At hearing the question, Spike sprang to his feet. "I normally cook for ponies. But I know a few meat based dishes. Pluss I'm a fast learner." He announced proudly.
"Good." Kitty laughed. "Because it's dinner time and I'm famished." The three shared a laugh before Spike followed his nose to the kitchen and got straight to work. Leaving Scootaloo to sit at the bar and share a drink with Kitty.
"You know. It's about time we got some guys around here." Kitty purred softly. "You think any of them would be looking for a bed partner?"
"They all have eyes for someone already." Scootaloo shrugged. "But I may have some ideas on how to help them consider the idea." She chuckled before the two leaned closer. "Who did you have your eyes on?"
Meanwhile Spike easily found everything he needed to make a decent sized meal to celebrate them finding Scootaloo and getting a place to stay. He almost felt like he was back in Ponyville as he set off on his take of cooking for three vegetarians and two omnivores. "Finally I get to work with meat without having to fumigate the room." He laughed to himself. Admittedly, he had gotten used to the smells he had to use back home. But with the smell of cooking flesh entering his nostrils, he sighed in contentment at how amazing it all was. And knew the others would feel the same.
Soren on the other hoof was having a hard time picking out what staff he was going to use. Back with the Wonderbolts, they only had one basic style. He did know there was other nations that had their own staffs. But he had never imagined that somepony would be able to line a wall with all the different types. Let alone a wall that he would have sworn looked more like a hallway. Gulping to himself he made his way down the line before stopping at one that caught his eye. Licking his lips he took it in his hand and nearly nayd at how it felt. It was almost like it was made just for him. Smiling he walked out with his new staff strapped to his back.
GPF HQ Twilight and Fluttershy gasped as they looked out over a balcony at a large room with hundreds of windows that show different types of legal processes as well as other forms of public services. The jackal smiled warmly at seeing the looks of amazement. "Never gets old." He laughed before turning to walk down the hallway. "welcome to the Galaxy Peace Federation headquarters. Come, let's see about getting you two settled in and get you set up with some work."
The two turned and followed him, glancing over the side now and then in awe. "Work?" Fluttershy eaped. "What do you expect us to do?"
"Don't worry cutie." He laughed. "You strike me more as a healer than anything." He then looked over at Twilight thoughtfully. "Perhaps for you… we can send you into the field after a quick lesson on our laws. That way you can help AND look for your friends."
Twilight smiled and nodded. "I would like that. Thank you."
He smiled and stopped at a white door. "This is the medical room. Mis Shy? If you wouldn't mind taking a look inside. I'm sure the staff would be more than happy to help you get settled in."
As the door opened the two mares caught the scent of medical chemicals. Letting out a gasp Fluttershy rushed in.
"Right this way Twilight." He countered as he started back down the hall. "Let's get you set up." As they go around a corner they come to a door at the end of the hall. "Go on in and have a seat." Twilight nodded and walked into the room and sat at the lone table. "I'll check back later." He said with a soft smile before the door shut and locked. "Welcome to the team." With that he turned and held up a Walkman. "We got the alicorn and yellow pegasus. How's the search going for the kid?... keep looking... once they see what we're trying to do. They'll help us without question."
Meanwhile inside nearby vets, a dirty white filly sneaks away as she pulls out a small device and starts tapping buttons. After a few moments she sighed. "Why am I not surprised?" She mumbled as she made her way to an underground area.
It was a long sweaty trip through the tight and hard to maneuver path from where she watched Twilight enter the room to where her makeshift base was. It took her some time to get there. But it was worth the effort. Slipping from her crawlspace, she quickly moved to a deck and typed her report with one hand as the other pulled a rope that sealed her in.
Once she heard the latch click she finished her report and let out an aggravated scream. "When are they going to get us out of here? I bet if my sister was here, she would be busting down the walls to find me." After a moment she sighed in defeat. "Just before getting us caught as she fussed about how dirty I was." Her ear twitched as the reply came in. Looking at the makeshift screen she smiled. "Well… at least I have a way out finally. Just hope I can trust this guy." With that she pulled another rope and hopped down a hole.
Back with the jackal, things seemed good as he made his way down the hallway, stopping for a moment to look in at Fluttershy as she had already started tending to the injured. Rubbing his chin he looked the mare over before smirking as a plan came to mind. Turning back he made his way back to the room Twilight was in. "Let's see how well our new recruit is doing." Stopping at the door he considered for a moment. "Then again. She is an alicorn… oh well. Win win." He laughed before opening the door to see Twilight strapped to the chair as a video played for her. "Are you enjoying the video?"
"I… need to blink." She whimpered. "Please turn this thing off."
"But if we stop, Then we'll have to restart it from the beginning." He sighed. "Sadly our last intern broke the tape player. But don't worry. I have a proposition for you."
"What's that?" She asked as she felt her body slowly starting to go numb.
"You see. We don't get many females. And your friend looks like she'd be perfect to fill the void. If you know what I mean." He paused and saw her reaction, he continued. "Good. Now… I won't mind keeping her from that fate. If you agree to watch a special video of ours. Or you can always take her place." He laughed. "Sorry. I couldn't resist. But the option is there."
"You're… you… monster…" She replied weakly.
"Sadly some see what we do as such. But I promise. This is for the good of all." He sighed. "And it looks like time is running out for you to make your choice."
After a few moments Twilight finally replied. "Don't let them touch her." She groaned.
"Deal. Oh… and heads up. I switched the videos earlier. Enjoy the video. You'll thank me later. " He laughed before walking out. "I'll be enjoying my new security." He called back, causing Twilight to start to cry.
unknown spaceship Applejack and Rainbow hugged Apple Bloom Hours passed before the Phantom called over the intercom. "Dinner's ready."
As the girls gathered in the dining hall, Sweetie Belle giggled at their appearance. "Hard first day?" She asked.
"Be glad y'all don't have to change an engine." Applejack groaned as she pointed to the bathroom.
"Don't worry. I placed some clothes in there for you two to change into. Hope they fit." Phantom replied.
Rainbow just groaned in pain as she made a v line for the shower. Sweetie Belle giggled as she looked at Phoenix and Psy. "So? How'd they do?"
"Your sister is a fast learner." Psy praised as she patted Sweetie on the head. "But she still has a lot to learn."
Phoenix nodded in agreement. "I have a feeling they'll be ready for the field soon."
"I bet the farm girl will be ready first." Phantom laughed.
"You're on." Phoenix laughed before sitting with the others. "Once the others come out, we'll eat."
After AJ and RD got out of the shower the table was set and all eyes were on them, making them a bit self-conscious. Applejack was the first to walk over wearing close fitting jeans and a light blue t-shirt, with knee high socks and a pair of boots.
"Looking good." Spy praised.
Rainbow poked her head out of the bathroom sheepishly. "Is… is there something else I can wear?"
"Are the clothes too small?" Phantom asked.
"Well… no." She replied.
"Too big?" Apple Bloom guessed.
"No…"
"Do you want to quit?" Phoenix asked without looking, as he took a sip from his coffee.
"What? How is what I'm wearing supposed to be related to my training?" She snapped before quickly covering her mouth in realization at what she said.
Phantom placed a hand on Apple Bloom's shoulder as Spy did the same with Applejack to keep them from interrupting. Phoenix took a deep breath and got up before walking to the bathroom and ushered her inside.
Once they were alone he looked her over. "We'll see about getting you some clothes at our next stop." He explained. "But if you're going to be a runner. You have to learn to be comfortable in anything. If you don't think you can do that. Then we'll stop now."
Rainbow bit her lip nervously as she considered her options. "Are there any other options?"
"Two. But you might not like them." He replied.
"Why not?"
"One's an escort and the other takes a lot of research and reading." He replied softly.
Rainbow gulped and looked at the silky evening gown. It was hard for her to see herself in such an outfit. However the thought of… that… Being an escort was terrifying. Her reputation would plummet. And even worse was the last option. It was clear that she really didn't have a choice… did she? "Can we compromise somehow?"
Phoenix thought for a moment. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath and sighed. "There is one. But I try to avoid offering it for very good reasons."
"And what are they?" Rainbow asked with a mix of fear and excitement.
Phoenix locked the door before pinning her to the wall eliciting a squeak of shock. "What… what are you doing?" She gasped.
"I'll ask. You answer. Now, how does this make you feel?" He asked, slowly moving closer.
"Uncomfortable." She admitted.
"And what would you do if I told you to stay still as I touch anywhere I want?"
"I… I'd push you away… Obviously."
He stopped inches from her face. "If you're not willing to submit yourself to me. Then you're not ready." He sighed before pulling away.
"What do you mean? You were talking about taking advantage of me."
"If I wanted to take advantage of you. I would have already." He groaned, turning to the door. "I wanted to see if you'd obey my command."
Rainbow thought it over then took a deep breath. "Permission to speak?"
"Granted."
"You asked if I'd let you touch me… what if… another guy did?"
"If they were lucky?... I'd gild them." He replied without hesitation.
Upon hearing that, her wings popped open. "And… what else would I have to do?"
"Other than following my instructions?" He shrugged. "Mostly work hard at your lessons."
Rainbow gulped. "And how would we make it official?"
Phoenix turned to face her. "Are you saying you want to take the training?" He asked slowly, moving closer to her.
Taking a deep breath she nodded. "Yes… I stand still and let you touch me."
Phoenix ran his hand over her side. "Let's see about that. Strip." Rainbow blinked and opened her mouth to protest. "Yes. Being naked is something one does in private. But for you to prove yourself and for us to properly start. This is not a request. It's an order."
Rainbow blushed as she slowly reached up to slowly take off her top before stopping and biting her lip. "How… how do you want me to strip?"
Phoenix shrugged and sat on the toilet. After a moment of thought he smiled. "I can't recall the last time I got a show from a female undressing. But if you want to just take it off and move on. I'm fine with that."
"A show?"
"It's something folks do to entice excitement in someone." He rubbed his chin for a moment. "Normally done with slow and pursifull movement. But… i…" He paused and blinked as Rainbow slowly turned her back to him and slowly undid the strap holding the top in place with one hand as the other held it to her chest.
After a moment she looked over her shoulder. "Is touching allowed?"
"Not on my part… technically." He replied as he wondered what she was doing.
Rainbow turned back to face him and moved to stand between his legs before sliding the bottom half off and placing each leg on either side of him, kicking the dress off with the final leg. "So… is this what you wanted? Or did you want to see more?" She asked letting the top fall free from her hold before undoing the bottom strap and tossing it onto the sink as she pressed against him.
"This will suffice." He said placing his hands on her sides and slowly running them up to her arms before sliding them to her hands and back. "Firm yet soft. That's good." He then went around her back and slid his fingers along her wings, forcing her to bite her lip to stifle a reaction. "Don't. I want to hear your reaction." He ordered. Making a second pass over her wings. This time receiving a soft moan. As to answer her unspoken question he smiled. "Good. Your wings are healthy. Good blood flow." He then placed his hands on her thys and ran them along the outside to her knee and back around. Stopping before he got halfway up.
"Why did you stop?" She moaned.
"You passed. And I got the information I needed."
"But… What about my tail or breasts? I said you can touch me anywhere."
"And I did." He replied, resting his hands on her legs. "I can't get a good read with the bra in the way. And you don't look very comfortable."
"I guess you have a point… what if we moved?"
"Rainbow. If we keep going in your state. You might end up regretting it."
Rainbow let out a huff. "Well if no other male is going to touch me." She mumbled.
"If you find one you want. Then I'll pramit it." Phoenix sighed. "That rule is for your protection."
Rainbow hung her head. "Doesn't matter. Everyone thinks I like girls anyway."
Phoenix thought for a moment and ran his hands up her sides slowly. "From what I saw and felt?... I don't think so."
The two shared a smile as his hands moved around to her back…
Kitty's Doghouse After closing, the group gathered around a table as Spike and Kitty brought over dinner. "You boys did a great job today." Kitty praised as the food was passed out. "You each deserve the rest of the night off."
The three guys share high-fives as Scootaloo giggled at the sight. "After we eat. We can talk about how we're going to look for the others." With a shared nod dinner was started. The five of them ate, laughed and shared stories about what they went through.
"And with that." Kitty sighed as Spike took the plates to the kitchen. "Time to teach you boys the secret of this place."
"Did any of you notice how they liked to talk?" Scootaloo pointed out. "Even those GPF thugs."
"So we just listen to private conversations?" Flash asked in shock.
"Private would imply that they keep their voices down." Kitty laughed. "And thanks to their loud mouths. We did find out something." She beamed as she turned to Scootaloo.
Once Spike returned Scootaloo took a deep breath. "We have leads on where the other CMC members are. And three of our other friends."
"Before you get hyper about it." Kitty warned. "That's where the good news ends."
The guys looked at each other in concern as Scootaloo hung her head. "Rarity and Sweetie Belle are… not in a safe place. And as for Apple Bloom, Applejack and Rainbow… someone that knew them sent out a hail to see if anyone knew where we all were."
"How is that bad?" Soren asked.
"The girls didn't send it… a criminal did." Scootaloo replied. "That's all we gathered about it."
After a few moments. The guys replied with a united sigh. "There is a chance to get more information. But… it will be risky." Kitty announced.
Scootaloo watched the guys as they looked over ready for the answer. Smiling, she turned to Kitty. "What do we have to do?"
"Two choices. One we force them to talk. Or we convince them to." Kitty explained. "Those are our options."
The guys looked at each other, as one by one the stallions nod. "We may need to do some training first." She informed with a blush.
"What are you talking about?" Spike gulped.
With a smirk, Kitty pulled out what looked like a large rubber pink pickle. Gulping the guys looked at each other then at the girls. "What are you planning to do with that?" Soren asked.
"Why don't you boys strip and we'll show you?" Scootaloo teased.
"What will getting naked have to do with… that?" Flash asked nervously.
"Oh don't worry. Once you can take this in those cute flanks, the real training can start." Kitty laughed.
"Why can't Scootaloo do it?" Soren asked.
"Because I won't let some random pig touch her or suggest she risk pregnancy." Kitty explained with a smile at Soren as she pulled out a bandage set. "And thank you for volunteering to try my new one." Getting up she tossed him the set. "I'll be back. So get that on. You'll need it." She explained before moving to the back.
Taking the chance, Scootaloo took the dildo and held it out to Spike and Flash. "So. Who wants to go first?" She teased.
Both guys pointed to the other as Soren struggled to get dressed before Kitty got back.
Flash gulped and took the dildo before getting undressed. "I guess I'll take the first attempt."
Spike helped Soren get the straps of his new outfit on as Kitty walked back in holding a large box. "I just got this little baby from an old friend of mine. And don't worry. As long as your holes are covered or filled.you have nothing to worry about." She explained as Scootaloo put on a face mask. "Spike. Unless you want to join the fun. I suggest you go behind the counter, strip and put what's in the box on."
Spike nodded and quickly went to do as she instructed. "Sorry Soren. But you should have seen this coming. Oh and Flash. I suggest you get that in place and get something from the toy box under the counter for your mouth too." Scootaloo warned.
"But why does she-" Soren started as a ring was strapped in his mouth.
"I told you why. And because you still don't get it." Kitty explained pulling out an odd looking ring. "Now you won't be allowed to cum until I take this off." Placing the box next to him, Kitty and Scootaloo moved the tables so there was several feet free for the three guys to sit next to each other.
"Remember guys. Keep those in place. Or you'll be joining him!" Scootaloo called, as Kitty activated the box remotely.
With a loud click, the top of the box opened as tendrils shot out and instantly grabbed the three guys. Without hesitation, the tendrils found and thrusted into Soren as the others felt around for more holes. Spike and Flash gulped as they were forced to watch their friend getting plowed as the tendrils bumped against the toys that were in them, intentionally pushing them deeper several times.
Scootaloo and Kitty sat at the bar and watched as the guys started their training. "Who do you think will beg first?" Kitty asked.
"Spike. But to be fair. He is smaller. So… Flash. He has complete slut vibes about him." She laughed. "He couldn't even ask Rainbow out when she was practically telling him she wanted a date." The two shared a laugh.
Hearing the girls talk about him, Flash let out a moan in surprise at how hot it made him. Hearing the girls talking about them and watching them get used was starting to get to the guys. The pumping toys weren't helping matters either. Spike and Flash looked at each other as if to dare the other to submit. However as their eyes met, they were pushed to each other as a loud click told them that they were stuck in a kiss. Each time one pulled away the strap that held the dildos pulled them back. In addition, it made the dildo that much longer.
Kitty's Doghouse Spike and Flash felt the tentacles let go of one of their hands as both boys looked at each other before undoing the straps on their butt toys and letting them get pulled out and replaced with tentacles. As soon as the tentacles let go of their other hands they fought with their mouth gags to get their mouths free before quickly pulling each other into a kiss. Only pausing to share a tentacle when one pressed past their face.
It wasn't long before tentacles found their ways into both mouths and started pumping into the hungry boys.
As the three boys got ravaged by the tentacles Scootaloo looked over some notes that Kitty gathered. "So… you never told me why you're so hard on boys." Scootaloo commented.
"It's not all boys." Kitty sighed. "Just ones that think with their dicks." Laughing, she added. "You wouldn't believe how many guys I catch eyeing that cute butt of yours."
Scootaloo blushed as she hid behind the notes. "Well… maybe I should get out of the shop more. That way the guys aren't eyeing me as much." She looked up and smirked at seeing Flash and Soren making out as a tentacle passed through them.
Kitty rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "I may have a task you can do. But it'll have to wait." She informed as she watched the guys as the tentacles that went in them got thicker with each one that forced itself into them.
Scootaloo bit her lip as she looked at one of the notes. "Would it be ok if I went to the market?"
"We do need a few things." Kitty agreed.
As the girls talked about what Scootaloo should do while the guys were on their mission, Spike was already doing his best to take care of as many tentacles at once as possible. At the same time Flash was zoned out letting them use him like a cum dump. And lastly Soren had stopped whimpering as he groaned as the tentacles spitroasted him.
"Looks like it's a tie between Spike and Flash." Kitty giggled.
"I knew Flash was a slut. But dam. Spike is just begging for it." Scootaloo gasped. "To be honest. It's kinda hot. Kinda wish that Zephyr was here to join them." She moaned as the thought crossed her mind.
As if sensing her rising arousal, a tentacle slithered over and started stroking her pussy. "Scootaloo, back room." Kitty instructed as she stepped on the tentacle before digging out a shock stick.
Scootaloo started for the back when a tentacle grabbed her leg and quickly slithered up her leg to rub her pussy. Seeing this Kitty slapped the tentacles one at a time as she worked her way to the box. Letting out a gasp as a tentacle grabbed her arms she turned a knob on the stick. As her other arm was grabbed, she dropped the stick in hopes that it'd hit the box however…
"FUCK!" She shouted as the stick landed inches from the box. Seeing Kitty's plan,Scootaloo kicked free and dove to the stick, managing to give it the nudge it needed to come in contact with the box. Within an instant, the tentacles spasmed as they started ejaculating all over the shop and the five inhabitants. Slowly the tentacles set them down before returning into the box.
Scootaloo and Kitty smiled at each other at a job well done before they turned to see three bloated guys. "Clean this mess and get some rest. Tomorrow we will find your friends." Kitty announced before walking to the back.
Scootaloo rolled onto her back before blinking at the sight of a large purple dragon. "Spike?"
"Need… help…" He growled. Scootaloo looked him over and let out a soft whistle at how big he was. If it wasn't for his coloring, Scootaloo would have sworn she was looking at a buff Garble. Her eyes widened at the reason he was so desperate for help.
As Spike hung over Scootaloo, he rubbed his rock hard dick against her stomach as if to show how deep he wanted to enter her. "Fuck." She groaned, feeling herself heat up at the attention. Not wanting to break her promise, Scootaloo smiled and placed her hand on his chin. "How about this big guy? You get those two to clean the room. And I'll suck you off."
Blinking Spike turned to the others and quickly freed Soren from his bindings before looking between the two. "Clean room… or I'll rut you." He growled. Nodding they went to work as Spike returned to Scootaloo and knelt over her working his tongue under her panties as she licked and sucked his tip.
It didn't take Spike long to thrust his tongue into her as he pushed more of his dick into her. Scootaloo wasn't surprised about how pent up he was. With how eager he was to stuff her with his dick, she had a feeling it wouldn't be long before he climaxed. The mix of strange cum on Spike's dick and how eager he was digging into her pussy, Scootaloo had a feeling that she wouldn't last long either and still be ready for more.
After several thrusts, Spike had hilted himself into her as his tongue teased her womb. Feeling the combination of her tight throat and clamping pussy, Spike dabbled his efforts as he started sucking at the same time that he thrusted into harder and faster. Scootaloo started gagging and she went from holding his hip, to slapping it in desperation for air.
She didn't want to admit it, but she was enjoying being treated like this. Her hind legs twitched as she climaxed into his mouth. Letting out a groan she felt his dick throbbing, letting her know that very soon she was going to be choking on not only his dick but on his cum as well.
Several thrusts later Spike hilted himself into her and began shooting his load into her. To her credit, Scootaloo managed to swallow a few loads before the lack of air and continuous loads being shot into her caused her eyes to roll back into the back of her head as she started to black out.
Thankfully, Spike started pulling out of her as he continued to cum with every inch. As his dick came free from her mouth he fired several streams onto her body till there was hardly a part of her that wasn't claimed by him. With a soft groan he fell to the side groaning in pleasure.
By the time the rest of the room was cleaned Kitty came back out and sighed with an amused smile at seeing her four employees laying on the ground. She had to admit that seeing the two stallions cuddling was cute. And Spike(who returned to his normal size) was clinging to a sleeping Scootaloo. "Well… they can wash up tomorrow." She sighed before grabbing the box. "Let's hope this works. For their sake."
unknown spaceship Much to Rainbow's delight or dismay. Nothing really happened. He just gave her a hug and walked out leaving a shell-shocked mare to her thoughts. To her credit Rainbow managed to quickly clean herself off and walk out of the bathroom like nothing happened.
Dinner was much the same way. The group talked about ideas and locations to check for their friends. But thankfully no one brought up what happened in the bathroom.
When it came time for bed the two sisters got their own room. However… "You'll be sleeping with me." Phoenix instructed. Rainbow felt her blood turn to ice. She hadn't had time to talk to Applejack about what happened and she was fairly certain that being alone with a guy at this time was the last thing she wanted to do.
However she had made the promise and obeyed his command. To her surprise he had a hammock set up for her.
It was surprisingly comfortable and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep. However, in the middle of the night she woke at the sound of growling. Sitting up she looked to the noise and saw Phoenix was thrashing around.
It didn't take much for her to understand what was wrong. And did the only thing she can think of. Quickly she climbed out of her bed and into his before timing it so she could grab hold of him. Her plan was to grab him from the back. But upon seeing a pile of ripped shirts with one that he had on preparing to join the pile. She lunged in and blessed herself against his chest.
The reaction was instantaneous as his body froze inches from digging into her back. "It's ok… I'm here…" She gulped at the next words she was about to say. "I… I want to share your pain master." She felt his arms wrap around her as he held her close. Moments passed before she felt tears stain her muzzle.
Leaning up she licked one away. "Good night sir." She sighed ready to fall back asleep.
Yet again however, her eyes shot open as she felt something that brought a blush to her face. "You have to be bucking kidding me!" She screamed inwardly. "There is no way that's what I think it is!" He legs quivered at the sensation that was being sent through her body at the feel and thoughts. "Maybe I can squeeze out of his…" She tried to carefully pull free but only managed to turn around at the same time as her legs pulled his pants down.
With his pants and surprisingly boxers pulled down Rainbow felt it slap between her thighs. Gulping she looked down and was instantly mesmerized by the sight. "HOLY BUCKING SHIT!!!! DON'T TELL ME THIS IS HALF MASS"
Meanwhile outside the room Psy stood with her ear to the door. She had been used to his nightly thrashing. But for some reason. Tonight he was quite… too quiet. With a slight smirk she returned to her room. "I knew keeping these girls around would pay off." She sighed happily.
In Phantom's room The tiger sat at his work bench as Apple Bloom sat across from him. "I thought you were going to sleep with your sister." He questioned as he examined the nozzle of an AK47. Putting It down he looked over at her with a smirk. "Don't you think she'll worry about you?"
Bloom looked over a revolver and shrugged. "Told my sis I wanted to get some practice in. Side. Y'all ain't sleeping."
He laughed and nodded. "Good point. So how old are you?"
"18. Well I will be in a few days." She replied as she started to polish the gun. "Why ya ask?"
He shook his head with a sigh. "Just funny is all. I know I don't look it. But I'm rather close to your age." Bloom blinked and looked him over. "I turn 20 in a few days."
The two laughed before returning to work. "Nice one." She laughed. After not hearing a reply she looked him over again before quickly returning to work. "So… how'd Y'all end up here?"
"Truth is I'm probably closer to your sister's age…" He replied.
"Not much of a difference. It's still less than ten years." She muttered under her breath.
"Anyway, to answer your question… it all started……"
In Psy's room Psy stretched and moved over to one of her babies. "How are you doing tonight?" She cooed as she rested her body against the hood of a customized 2016 Lamborghini Aventador. "Don't worry. Mommy will take you for walkies at the next planet."
Her ear twitched at the sound of a whistle. Turning she saw Applejack smiling at her. "And here I thought y'all was just some gal who tinkered with them." She walked in and gave the cars a praising look. "But I can see y'all truly care for them."
"They're the only family I have… an old friend taught me… how important loving what you do is." She sighed.
"Y'all miss em?"
She shrugged. "He was like a brother to me. But I know he'll be fine."
"How ya know that?"
"He sends me parts." The two shared a soft smile before starting work on an old tractor.
Rainbow Dash bit her lip as she fought her urge to reach down and grab his shaft. "Come on Dash. You're stronger than your heat." She groaned.
"I can smell it." Phoenix moaned softly, causing Rainbow to gulp. She froze as one of his hands ran down her stomach and stopped at her pants. "I can teach you how to focus through your heat. But it is risky and if you're old school. Then you'll never marry."
Rainbow bit her lip as the implications pushed her to grab his hand. "And if I just want to stop… wanting it?"
"Would it matter if you-"
"I don't want to be in heat. But I don't want kids before I marry." Rainbow whimpered.
Phoenix gently ran his hand into her pants as the other went up under her shirt. "Then why haven't you stopped me yet?"
"Because I promised to obey you." She moaned.
"Did I tell you to let me fondle you?" He asked as he started rubbing her pussy as he fondled her breast.
"No…"
"Then why haven't you stopped me?" He asked softly.
"Why haven't you told me to strip?" She countered. "I can feel that you want it."
"I told you-"
"Yeah. That you won't force me into anything." She moaned as her hand gripped his dick. "But… even if I want it… I'm…"
"Hush." He whispered, making her bite her lip. "I'm worried too. This would be the first time I was with a female in heat. I don't want to risk it if you're truly concerned about having kids with me."
Rainbow bit her lip in consideration. "If we were to do it… what would it mean to you?"
"As we're not mates. It means you trust me with your life." He explained moving his hand from her breast to her stomach. "And that I trust you with something I would value more than my own life."
With that her mind raced, trying to both find reasons why she shouldn't give herself to him as well as why she should. At first it was a tie… until she reminded herself of the bathroom and practice. At any moment he could've had his way with her. He knew she was in heat, and any stallion back home would have jumped at the chance of ordering her to take it. If not, just try their luck without her permission.
He was different. He was dangerous, yet gentle. Wild yet well mannered. Controlling yet sympathetic. Open yet a mystery. His large dick aside. Rainbow couldn't think of a better stallion to give herself to. Heck, in the short time she was with him. She felt they knew each other better than her own team did.
And it was with that realization that the last baryer holding her back crumbled. "What if I wanted a mate… if I wanted you?" Hearing this he pulled his hand from her pussy and gave it a lick.
She turned to face him as she felt her pants slip down a little. She smiled at him as she felt his dick slip between her legs and rub against her pussy. Letting out a soft moan, Phoenix pulled her close. "Then I will be honored to have such a brave mare as my mate and mother to my cub."
She smiled before kissing his lips. "Then make me your mate, big guy."
As she pulled her pants the rest of the way she let out a soft moan as he kissed and nipped her neck. As she kicked her leg free, Rainbow grabbed his shirt and finished ripping it off of him before tossing it into the pile as he took his pants off.
Letting out a soft moan, Rainbow pulled away long enough to pull her top over her head. Phoenix started to fondle her breast as he whispered in her ear. "You want to have a taste first or should I end your heat now?"
Blinking, she looked down at his dick for a moment. "Only if you want to have a taste of me too."
With a smile Phoenix rolls her onto her back before climbing on top of her letting his dick hang tantalizingly over her head as he licks her pussy. Opening her mouth Rainbow let him slide his dick into her as he went to town on her pussy and throat.
She didn't know how long it had been since she felt this helpless and excited at the same time. But with each lash of his tongue and each thrust of his dick, Rainbow couldn't help but to buck into his mouth as she moaned and sucked on his dick.
After a few moments he pulled off and out of her before turning so they were face to face. "I'm sorry. But if we don't do this now-"
"Shut up and put it in already." She instructed, pulling him into a kiss.
He let out a soft moan pressing his dick against her pussy as he held the kiss. As his dick teased her pussy he pulled away from the kiss. "Last chance to back out. We do this then there's no going back. We'll be mates." He warned. "I can put on pro-"
Rainbow grabbed his dick and held it to her pussy. "I want you. No other stallion gets me like you do. And none have or can do what you can." She paused and moaned, pulling his tip into her. "The fact this will end my heat is just a bonus."
With a smile he gave her a kiss before slowly pushing into her. "Then I'll make sure that no other stallion will measure up." He growled softly, nipping her ear.
Phoenix started thrusting into Rainbow with gentle yet forceful movements of his hip. Almost instantly, Rainbow's eyes rolled to the back of her head. She thought, "There was no freaking way something this painful should be allowed to feel this freaking good!" It felt almost like trying to shove Big Mac into a fox hole. Surprisingly doable. Don't ask. Yet painful both ways.
Thankfully with each thrust that went deeper, the pain subsided into sure bliss. "Sweet Celestia!" She thought as her arms and legs wrapped around him. "Buck having a coltfriend. There's NO way I'm giving this guy up." Each thrust was bringing her closer to climax… again. Truth be told, by the time he got half his length into her she had lost count. And she doubted it would end till he finished. In fact she thought there might even be a chance she'd pass out before he finished.
Thankfully she was able to hold out till he hilted into her and stayed still for a few moments. Panting he looked at her till she was able to look back at him. It took a few moments before they were able to lock eyes. "I Phoenix Dark Wing, herby claim you as my mate and queen." He panted.
Catching onto what he was doing Rainbow gulped and blushed with a smile. "I… Rainbow Dash… except you as my mate… and…" She blinked. "Wait. Your QUEEN?"
Phoenix smiled and kissed her lips. "We can talk about that later my love." With their declaration confirmed, Phoenix started thrusting into her again as she pulled him into a second longer kiss.
It didn't take long for a rhythm to build up between the two. And even less time for her to feel his knot slam against her. "This is it." She thought. "Once that goes in. I'm his. I'll be rid of this heat and… I'll be pregnant."
Sadly that moment was halted as alarms went off. The two shared a groan before Phoenix looked to a box over his bed. Pressing a button on it he ordered. "Report!"
Not wanting him to stop, Rainbow pulled herself up to nip at his neck. "I hope you don't plan on stopping after lighting the fuse."
He smiled back at her and gave her a kiss before whispering. "Don't worry. We can get back to our fun soon. It's probably just some space da-"
"Scanner shows unregistered magic signatures on a nearby planet." Phantom replied over the ship speakers. "I think we found one of the girls!"
"Why not Spike?" Bloom's voice asked.
"Too big… then again…"
"Start course for the signature!" Phoenix ordered before cutting contention. Sighing he smiled down at Rainbow. "Raincheck?"
Rainbow smiled back at him. "You kidding? I think with news like that. I'm energized for a few more rounds." She laughed. "Or do you think you can-" her words were cut off as he started slamming into her. "Me and my big mouth." She thought as a blissful expression crossed her face. "Then again. One round like this is perfect. He knows me so well." She didn't really know how he was able to read her so well. And to tell the truth. She didn't care.
He continued thrusting his hip against her as he clamped his jaws around her neck and growled softly, sending waves of excitement throughout her body. Her legs twitched as she held him tight.
This was the moment she was waiting for. She could feel how close he was getting with every thrust and the thought of being filled drove her closer to her own climax. One that promised to be bigger and stronger than the rest.
With one final thrust Phoenix began to fire his load into her. From her side of the orgasum, it felt like he was unloading years worth of pent-up baby batter into her. And she was loving every second of it, climaxing with every thrust and feeling him fire another lode into her in time with her ejaculation.
As they started to relax Rainbow went limp as he calmly licked her neck. "Sorry. I got a little carried away for a bit." He apologized.
"Don't be." She moaned. "I did ask for this after all. So. Do we have a wedding or?..."
He licked her neck again before resting on top of her. "Only if you want. But by the law of my people. You swore yourself to me. And…" He rubbed her stomach. "If the spirits approved. Then you can expect a bit of change in your near future."
"How near are we talking?" Rainbow asked as her eyes got heavy.
"A few days…" He replied as she slowly started to drift off to sleep. "Or by morning." Was the last thing she heard before sleep took her.
In the dream scape Rainbow blinked at the party decorations. "What the?" She muttered.
"Hi Dashy." Pinkie cheered from a large table full of different foods. "Me and Mister E, thought we'd give you a special surprise."
"What? How? When? Where?" Rainbow sputtered.
"No time for all that." A white rabbit replied as he walked over looking like some kind of ringleader. "We came with a message from the spirits."
"And that is?"
Clearing his throat, the rabbit stood as professional as possible… for ten seconds before grabbing her hand and dropping to a knee as he shook said hand. "Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you. You have no idea how happy we are that he has taken a mate. And we could think of none better than the element of loyalty herself. Thank you thank you thank you." Pulling back he stood and smiled. "And they have agreed to give you a gift. One from each of them."
"Really? What?"
"You'll find out. But first… wake up!" He said flatly. For some reason his last words sounded like Applejack. "Wake up!" He repeated, flicking her head. Rainbow blinked and found herself staring at Applejack. Who looked concerned?
Rainbow groaned as she sat up and saw Phoenix tied and gagged with an annoyed look on his face. "AJ. Why is Phoenix tied up?" Rainbow asked flatly.
"Psy let me in. And I found that mut balls deep in ya. When were ya gonna tell us y'all was in heat?" Applejack snapped. "Y'all know what can happen if someone got a whiff of ya? They take advantage of ya like he did."
Rainbow facepalmed as Phoenix rolled his eyes. "AJ. First off, I'm not the only one who was in heat and you know that. Second, he had plenty of chances to take advantage of me and didn't. Third, even when I said I'd do anything he told me to do, he gave me the final choice. And lastly, why does it matter who I take as my mate?"
Applejack blinked in shock as Rainbow got up and went over to her mate and smirked down at him. "But… he… you…" Applejack stammered. "Think of the kids. Of Equestria! What are you going to do?"
Rainbow knelt down and pulled the gage from his mouth. "Simple. I will come with you." Phoenix replied for Rainbow before she pulled him into a kiss.
"Can you stop showing off?" She teased. "That's my job." The two laughed as Applejack scratched the back of her head.
"I guess that works… anyway. Get dressed. The teams waiting on deck." Applejack sighed before walking out.
Once the two were dressed and on deck Phantom brought up a hologram of a news report. "We scanned the planet news for anything that matched the missing ponies and dragon when this came up."
The video showed a stallion bent over a trash can as a bull was balls deep in him. "We believe the Bull is a local mob boss." Psy explained. And from what Applejack told us. The stallion is named Soren."
Applejack held up her fingers and started counting down. '3…2…1" She pointed to Rainbow who fell over laughing.
"No wonder he was so obsessed with CloudKicker." She gasped. "To think I asked that guy out."
After a few moments the rest of the team joined in on the laugh. "On the plus side." Bloom went on. "We found where they're staying. But that's the end of the good news."
"What's the bad news?" Phoenix asked.
Psy and Phantom glanced at each other. "We also found Twi…" Applejack sighed. She didn't want to say it. But it had to come out sooner or later. "She… she's acting strange."
Phoenix glanced at his team who brought up a badge causing Phoenix the snarl. "We don't have a choice." He hissed. "We'll have to get her last."
"But Twilight." Rainbow started before getting cut off by Phoenix.
"THAT IS AN ORDER!!!" He snapped. Taking a few deep breaths, he pulled the shocked mare into a hug. "I won't put you in that kind of danger."
"Am I missing something?" Bloom asked.
"We'll be fine." Rainbow confirmed. "You can trust us."
"Rainbow." Psy sighed. "Twilight has the strongest will and mind out of your friends. Right?" Rainbow nodded. "And she wouldn't harm or allow anyone to be harmed. Right?" Another nod. "Then explain this." She sighed pressing a button to show Twilight stepping on a rat who was trying to pull away.
They watched in shock as Twilight stomped on his spine as she took notes and spoke about something. She then stepped over him to a dog that was slowly being choked by a robot. And after looking him over, waved her hand and watched with a smile as it snapped his neck.
"Did y'all see what I saw?" Bloom asked.
"I sure did. Back up and zoom in on her clipboard." Applejack instructed. After a moment they got a close look at a tuft of pink mane. "They got Fluttershy too."
"As long as Fluttershy is safe. Their hold on your friend isn't going to bend. More reason for us to look for the others." Phoenix instructed.
"You mean like Scoots?" Rainbow asked. "The rat had a father that looked like hers. Just older…"
Phoenix turned to leave the room. "Send me the location. I'll go get them."
"Not without me, lover boy. You still owe me a drink." Rainbow called running after him.
"Should we tell them where they're going?" Bloom asked as the others shrugged.
"Cap is in a rut. It's about time he met her again." Phantom replied with a laugh. "Besides…" an image of a young Scootaloo appeared next to her older self. "Something tells me. He's not going to be back for a while."
"Not if those boys are as hungry as you made them look." Psy sighed. "Hopefully ponies aren't the possessive type."
Applejack and Apple Bloom gulped as they looked at each other in concern. "A few are like that… But Dash can be a bit… difficult." Applejack sighed.
Phoenix and Rainbow got into a shuttle and took off to the destination.
"Here's how we'll do this." Phoenix explained. "Whenever we have to go into a building. You wait outside till I call you in."
"Why is that?" Rainbow asked as she adjusted her top. "Is it because I look like a hooker?"
"No. And you look more like a punk school girl." He replied. "It's so you stay safe. If THEY show. I need you at the door to keep people from coming in."
"Got it." Rainbow sighed.
"We're landing." He sighed as they finished their preparations. "Did you get the name of the place?"
"I think the computer says… Kitty something."
Phoenix facepalmed. "Change of plans. You're coming in with me."
"Why the change?"
"You'll see." He sighed as they landed. Getting out of the ship, they make their way over to the bar as Phoenix grabs Rainbow by the hip and pulls her close. "Keep your hair and wings hidden till we have the place cleared." He warned looking around. "Once inside, get a table. Don't Let them know who you are."
Rainbow and Phoenix walked in and sat at a table together. As Rainbow looked at the menu, her mouth watered at the options. She never thought food looked so good in her life. But at this moment, she was craving something… she blinked as her eyes locked on a dish that had meat. Gulping, she reached out and grabbed his shirt. "Hun… I want meat…"
Taking a deep breath he took her hand giving it a gentle kiss. "I know it might be something you normally wouldn't get. But if you're craving it. Then get a small bowl. Just take your time." He confirmed, before looking at the bar.
"Is something wrong?" She asked before pointing out her order to the waitress.
"She's eyeing one of the tables. We may have a problem." Phoenix replied.
"Why is that?" Rainbow asked as she scanned the room.
"Possible repeat offenders." He replied softly. "See anyone you recognize?"
"I think so. But it's hard to tell without seeing their cutie marks." Rainbow replied. "The mare kinda reminds me of… but I'm probably just seeing things."
Phoenix thought for a moment and smirked. "Then once this place gets cleared out you can check the guys."
"Eager to look at another female's flank already?" Rainbow teased.
"If it's someone close to you. Would you be upset?" He asked before giving the stallion waiter his order.
Rainbow thought for a moment before putting a hand on his lap. "As long as you're not going to leave me for her."
After a few minutes of eating their food, Phoenix noticed one of the guys at the suspicious table grab the mare and pull her onto his lap. The two glance at the bar as the female nods back to them. Letting out a sigh, Phoenix got up and looked back to Rainbow. "Enjoy your food and the show." He said before walking over.
Rainbow smiled and watched as he calmly stood behind the guy that was holding the mare. "Would you boys mind letting the lady get back to work?"
"Piss off gramps." The guy huffed. "We're having fun. Right babe?"
Phoenix glanced at the mare as she tried to pull away. Letting out a sigh Phoenix grabbed her wrist with one hand and the back of the guy's head with the other. Within seconds, he pulled her off the guy's lap and to his chest as the other hand slammed the guy's face into the table. "You ok mis?"
"That was awesome." She replied breathlessly.
He smiled and let her go before lifting the guy to his feet. "I think you boys had enough. Now be good and pay your bill. And don't forget a tip for the kindness of this helpful waitress." Within seconds the guy and his buddies tossed a few handfuls of money on the table.
Seeing what was coming, several of the other customers moved their tables moments before Phoenix flung the guy towards the door. Thankfully the guys ran out as Phoenix returned to the table with Rainbow.
Rainbow crossed her legs as she tried to ignore her growing excitement. "Tonight. You… me… bed…" She instructed. Phoenix smiled and nodded as he sat with her.
"You said your little friend… what was her name?" He asked.
"Scootaloo."
"Right. If she changed like you did. She may have been older than you thought. If that's her that is." He explained. "She has a similar build as you do."
"Are you saying you want to rut her?" Rainbow asked. "Because I don't know how I feel about that."
"You can watch."
Rainbow quickly looked back at her food and started eating again so she didn't have to reply.
As they finished eating the female at the bar called for last drinks. "Looks like it's about time to learn the truth." He told her happily. Downing his beer he looked over at Rainbow as she nursed her meat broth. "I'll talk to them. Come over when you're done." He said as he got up and made his way to the bar where the mare was talking with the female.
"Long time no see Phoenix." The bartender laughed. "I missed watching you kick scum out of my bar."
"And I missed enjoying your food, Kitty. New cook?" He replied.
"What brings you? I doubt you came just for old time sake." She laughed.
"I have a few clients looking for their friends. Ponies to be precise. And a purple dragon." Phoenix explained looking around the room.
"So. Is the lady sipping her bowl one of your clients?" Kitty asked.
"You can check mine if I can check yours." He replied.
After a few moments Kitty motioned for him and the mare to go in the back. "Do what he says. It'll be fine." She told the mare before they went to the back.
As Phoenix and the mare went into the back, Kitty went over to Rainbow once the room was cleared. "Ok hun. You're clear to take off whatever you put on to hide your identity."
Rainbow thought for a moment before pulling off her wig. "Crash?" Soren gasped.
"Hay clipper." Rainbow laughed.
The stallions looked her over before covering themselves. "You look good." Soren said with a nervous smile.
"Sorry. I already have a mate." Rainbow laughed. "You'll have to get his permission."
Kitty laughed and sat next to her before calling. "Hay Spike! Get your tail out here and say hi to your friend?"
Hearing this, Rainbow blinked. "Well… I guess that explains the food." Spike walked out causing Rainbow's legs to twitch. "Wow… Spike… looking food."
"You too Dash." He replied as he walked over. Seeing the bowl he blinked. "Wait… you ordered the meat bowl? But you're… I thought… Why did you order meat?"
"I had a craving… mostly because I'm… pregnant."
In the other room, Phoenix stood and looked the mare over. "Take off your pants."
"What?" She asked. "Why do you need me to do that?"
"Your cutie mark." He replied bluntly. "Simple as that."
"I… I don't have one." She sighed. "I haven't found my special talent yet."
"Scootaloo?"
"Yes?"
He smiled and put a hand on her shoulder. "It's fine if-" He froze as she pushed herself against him and pulled him into a kiss. After a moment he pulled away. "Feel better? Rainbow is waiting."
Scootaloo whimpered softly as she sighed. And nodded. "Ok… but… do you think there's a chance we can…"
"You'll have to talk to her first." He replied, opening the door for her. "Shall we?"
Phoenix and Scotland walk out from the back of the room to find Rainbow laughing with Soren, Spike and Kitty and Flash brought over drinks. "Glad to see everything is going well." He said as he sat next to Rainbow.
Scootaloo bit her lip for a second before sitting on one of his laps before smiling sheepishly at Rainbow. "Hun?" Rainbow asked. "Did you two do anything back there?"
"No." Scootaloo sighed. "I promised I'd talk to you about it."
Rainbow thought for a moment as Kitty smirked. "You know. If I remember our talk. The Phoenix clan permits him a second mate. But I don't know if you two are ready for that."
"And why is that?" Rainbow asked, downing a hotdog whole.
"You're pregnant." Kitty replied. "Oh. And there is one more thing he-"
"Don't. These guys have enough on their plate to deal with." Phoenix snapped. "We need to get back to the ship, find the unicorn and her sister. And come up with a plan to free the princess."
Kitty blinked as Rainbow hung her head. "I just hope Rarity and Sweetie Belle hasn't gotten mixed up with whatever has Twilight and Fluttershy."
Scootaloo gulped. "Is… Applejack and Apple Bloom ok?"
"They're safe." Rainbow replied. "Pinkie is too… I think…" Shrugging, she added. "You know Pinkie. She'll find a way." With that said she went back to eating.
"Dash. What about your figure?" Soren asked, nearly getting a knife in his hand for reaching for the plate.
"Hasn't your mother ever taught you not to take food from a pregnant female?" Phoenix asked as everyone laughed at the fool.
Rainbow smiled and slid her plate closer to Phoenix and sat on his other lap. "I don't see why you can't have fun. As long as you don't go making another female pregnant."
They laughed and sat to enjoy reconnecting as Scootaloo rubbed her leg against his crotch, anticipating having her first time with someone this big. "What the heck?" She thought. "If Dash is happy with him. He has to be a cool guy worth a shot."
Meanwhile on an unknown street Twilight stood over a choking rabbit. With a sigh she snapped her fingers as a robot came over and picked the rabbit up. "Consider this a chance to make up for your murders. Until you pay your debt. You will be…" Twilight glanced at her tablet-like device. "Oh… you're going to the feral park. Interesting. Third feral killer on this street." She mused before turning to a nearby robot. "Fluttershy will be happy about all the new pets we'll have."
The robot picked her up and set her on its shoulder before making its way down the street. "Now who's next?... oh. A rapist. This will be fun. I get to try a few new tools out." She said with a big smile. "We'll start his punishment when I arrive. Send a unit to keep him in place. Maybe a public punishment will teach these fools that rape is wrong."
Sweetie crawled out of her hiding spot as a cloaked goblin stood waiting. "You find?" It asked.
"You stink." She huffed. "You can tell the boss that he has two of them. Don't forget our deal. We get him the device. He helps free our friends"
"Boss knows promise. Boss no lie. Now, pony keep promise to Groop." It said pointing to its dick.
"Deal was you wash first." Sweetie gagged. "You didn't. So deal's off."
As she started to walk past a strange urge came over her and forced her to her knees. "Groop thought pony would say that. So Groop brought friend. If pony not take Groop. The friend take pony."
Sweetie looked in shock as a large black dragon stood in the doorway. Gulping she crawled up to it and let out a soft moan. "You know Groop… if I knew this guy wanted some. I wouldn't have bothered asking you." She cooed, licking his slit.
"What?" Groop asked.
"You didn't know? I prefer guys that can fill me. Not twigs like you. Oh. And he's a hitman for the boss. So…" She giggled as the dragon took a deep breath. "Kill the rat babe." It covered Sweetie with a wing before it breathed out a cloud of acid that filled the room.
Several moments passed before Sweetie walked past the dragon. "Show's over. You can return to normal." She sighed walking away from the crumbling hut. After a few moments the dragon changed to a 6foot dragon and followed her to a waiting car.
"You still want to do this? Or wait till we deliver the news?" He asked eyes her flank.
"You kidding? I'm not going to make the trip without at least a snack." She laughed before bending over the hood. "You can give me dinner later. Just shove it in already." The dragon smiled and lined his dick with her ass. Growling softly he slammed his hip into her.
On the ship Bloom looked around and tilted her head. "Where did Silver go?"
After a few hours Scootaloo got up and brought Rainbow to her room in the back as Phoenix stepped outside to make a quick call to the ship about possible plans on moving forward.
Spike sat at a table as he ate his food. "I didn't want to sound rude… but is anyone else considered about Rainbow's appetite?"
Flash and Soren nodded in agreement as Kitty shrugged. "I wouldn't be. She's pregnant with Phoenix's kid. She needs the protein."
The guys looked at each other with a hopeful smile. After a few moments Spike sipped his drink. "I'm worried about Rarity." He sighed.
"You like her. Don't you?" Kitty asked.
"Yeah. But she probably only sees me like a little brother." He groaned before downing his drink. "I just want the chance to show her I'm no kid."
The guys put their hands on his shoulder as Kitty smiled with a clever idea. "Why don't you boys let Spike get some practice on you?"
The guys blinked then blushed looking at Spike's crotch as they licked their lips with a nod.
As Phoenix walked back in he saw Spike walk off with the two guys. What was odd about it was the dragon looked back and flicked his tail up with a wing. "I don't want to know. Do I?" He asked, walking to Kitty, who shrugged with a smile. Taking a deep breath he walked to the back to Scootaloo's room to see his mate standing next to a tied up blushing mare.
"She asked for it hun." Rainbow explained, holding up a collar. "She wants to be your student."
"Is this really necessary?" He sighed
"She wanted to give herself to you completely." Rainbow shrugged. "Plus, she desperately wants to be like me." Rainbow winked.
Taking a deep breath Phoenix stretched before undressing, to reveal his erection. "Then if my mate is fine with it. Then, I'm not against the idea."
Scootaloo's eyes widened in shock at his side as she whimpered in anticipation in her binding and gag.
Phoenix crawled onto the bed. As soon as he was over top of her, he removed the gag. "I want to hear it from you." He growled softly, causing her to moan softly. "What do you want?"
Scootaloo gulped. "Make me yours. I'll be your student, your second, anything you want." She panted.
"Wow scoots. Are you that eager to convince others you're more than a flightless pegasus?" Rainbow teased.
Heading this, Phoenix thought for a moment before repositioning so she was on top of him as he laid on the ground. "Then I will take you as my second. And I will fix your wings. But know, a gift like this comes at a price."
Scootaloo looked at Rainbow who seemed censored but supportive. Biting her lip, she looked back at him. "What's the price?"
He leaned up and licked the back of her wings. "You have to give me everything you have. Your wings and your life."
Scootaloo closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "I… accept. "
Phoenix lined her up with his dick and ran his hand up her chest, stopping over her heart. "Scootaloo?... Who are your parents?"
"Why do you ask?" She replied.
Rainbow looked between the two in confusion. "I think I know why you can't fly." He replied, repositioning her so she was on his lap letting him sit up.
"Does that change anything?" Rainbow asked.
Phoenix took a deep breath. "It changes everything."
"How do we find out the truth?" Scootaloo asked.
"By going to the spirits." He replied before biting his wrist and putting it in her mouth. "Suck." He waited as she drank his blood, before he blacked out, he bit her neck.
Rainbow let out a terrified scream as the two were engulfed in blinding flames.
Scootaloo slowly opened her eyes to see Phoenix looking at a line of stained glass windows. "Where are we?" She asked, walking over.
"The hall of time. Your time to be precise." He waved his hand out causing the windows to move past as Scootaloo saw herself age backwards slowly in each one. "Days, events and moments of your life are captured within each."
"So they're like the windows at Canterlot… cool." She said as a window stopped showing her look up at one of the windows.
"In a way." He laughed as the window went back to its spot. It wasn't long before the windows became foggy. Only showing a pony Scootaloo and the family she remembered. "And now we get to where the truth is hidden."
Scootaloo looked to see her parents next to a bed that had a black blotch on it. Gulping, she looked at him then back at the window. "To be honest. I always thought I was adopted. Heck, I had nearly nothing in common with my family… but…"
"Now's your chance to know the truth." He finished as he held out his hand to her. Taking a deep breath she took his hand. With a smile Phoenix held his free hand out to the window. "By order of the Phoenix Clan's king. Reveal what mortals forbade!"
After a few moments he huffed as nothing happened. "Well. Looks like dark magic isn't involved. Guess we get to try it the other way." Letting go of Scootaloo he walked over and kicked the window. "Hay! I know you can hear me! Wake up! She's ready for the truth, you lazy shit!"
Scootaloo blinked and giggled at the show. "Yeah. Show me who my mom really is already!" She shouted.
After a few moments, the fog cleared to show a red mare with white hooves, a white belly, a white tipped tail and white on her muzzle. Phoenix blinked and stepped back. "You have to be shitting me. How is she there?" Phoenix asked. A moment later a while stallion in a tophat appeared. "I should have guessed." He groaned.
"What does this mean for me?" Scootaloo asked.
"It means that you're not Equestrian. You're a princess of the Dragon clan." He explained. "And Kitty is your mother."
Scootaloo blinked. "WHAT?" Hearing her disbelief, the window showed the red pony as a vixen saying goodbye to the happy couple with tears in her eyes. "Then what does that mean for us?" She asked.
"That means by our law. You may take your place at his side as his mate and queen." A voice replied as a white rabbit walked over with a pink mini Pinkie bounced on his hat.
"I have sooooo many questions right now." Scootaloo groaned.
"Rainbow may still be his mate. But the role of queen will be passed to you." The rabbit explained. "If you want to be with him, that is."
Scootaloo thought for a moment before smiling and nodding. "So how do I claim my birthright?"
The rabbit smiled and passed her a scroll. "Read this out loud and proud. And the spirits will give you what is rightfully yours."
Scootaloo took the paper and looked it over before holding her head high and shouting. "I AM SCOOTALOO OF THE DRAGON CLAN! LAST BORN OF MY LINE! AND BY THE ANCIENT LAWS! CLAIM MY PLACE AS THEIR QUEEN!"
After a few moments of silence the rabbit bowed. "The spirits hear and welcome you home lady Scootaloo. Please, return to your friends with our blessings and gifts on this special day."
Overcome with joy, Scootaloo jumped into Phoenix's arms and started making out with him as flames covered them.
Rainbow went to turn to the door and call for help as the flames died down retailing Scootaloo riding Phoenix with her wings fully extended. Her eyes widened and jaw dropped in shock as she looked in disbelief at the length of her wings.
"Wow Scoots. Your wings grew fast." Rainbow mentioned as she walked over to her. "And your chest is…" She knelt down and caressed one breast as she sucked the other.
Scootaloo moaned softly as she cupped her f sized breast Rainbow was sucking. She let out a loud moan as Phoenix nipped the base of her wing. "So… good… please Phoenix. Make me yours. Fill me."
Smiling, Phoenix grabbed her hips and slammed her down onto his knot and began cumming into her and sealing her fate as his mate. Feeling him filling her Scootaloo let out a soft moan as she started to climax on him.
Unknown location Sweetie sat next to the dragon as it drove them to their destination. "You know we can get in a lot of trouble if anyone finds out about us. Right?"
"Don't worry so much." She laughed. "I doubt my sister will notice unless you start acting differently around her. And as for that other guy." She shrugged. "Who cares? It's not like he's our master. After our job is done. Then the three of us can get off this rock."
The dragon thought for a moment. "Good point. Let's just hope he doesn't expect us to do too much more. I don't like the orra he gives off."
GPF HQ Fluttershy giggled softly as she sat and played with some feral puppies. Unaware that the General was watching through a two way window. He looked at his tablet and smiled. "Good. As long as she keeps following orders. Our plans will succeed." He looked back at Fluttershy. "And if she does think about betraying us… well." His finger traced a button against the wall. "Her friend will get to join her little friends… permanently."
Scootaloo moaned softly in Phoenix's arms as he and Rainbow made their way out to the main room. She held him tight and licked her lips. She didn't really know how long they were fucking like rabbits. But she did know that no stallion would ever be able to fill her like he did.
As they got to the Bar, Scootaloo wrapped her arms and legs around him as Phoenix sat at the bar. "Quick question Kitty. Have you heard from your dark knight?"
Sighing, she poured a glass of rum. "No. Last I heard, he was following a lead. Knowing him. It's going to take a miracle to happen before we see or hear from him."
"Would reuniting with your long lost daughter count?" He smirked, causing all eyes to turn to him.
After a moment Scootaloo let go of him and carefully turned around with a thankful moan as Phoenix wrapped his arms around her and covered her breast. "Hi… mom."
Blinking, Kitty gasped and slowly walked around the bar as Phoenix turned so she could keep looking into Scootaloo's eyes. Once she was face to face with Scootaloo, her eyes widened in shock and realization before pulling her into a hug. "My little angel."
Scootaloo hugged her as the two cried in joy. Scootaloo thought for a moment before whispering about needing new clothes in her mother's ear. "Oh mom… there is one thing you should know…" She bit her lip. "I'm Phoenix's queen." She giggled. "And I'm… pregnant."
"How do you know?" Kitty asked, picking her up to carry her to one of the other rooms.
"With how much he put in me? How can I not be?" She laughed before the door shut.
A few moments after the door closes, the guys rush over to Phoenix and start cheering for him. Soren, congratulating him for his luck at having two mares. Spike, asking about pointers. And Flash, wanting details.
Rainbow smiled and sat back laughing at how annoyed her mate seemed to be at the praise. "Better get used to it hun. You have a queen and the Element of loyalty. You're going to have a lot of ponies looking up to you. Or wanting to be your best friend."
Phoenix sighed and looked around, as he noticed a sword stuck in the ceiling. "She left it there?... interesting." His eyes narrowed before glancing to the door.
Drinking hus rum, Phoenix almost didn't notice the girls returned. Only looking over when he noticed that the guys were looking at something in shock with obvious erections. Sighing, he turned and blinked in shock at what he saw.
Scootaloo stood in the doorway. If he was to compare her outfit to another. It would be a mix between an amazoness warrior and a ballet dancer. In fact, she practically looked like a tribal warrior queen.
After a few moments passed before she walked over and sat in his lap and kissed his lips. "Mom said she's happy for us." She laughed. "And I can't wait to see the ship."
As Phoenix laughed, the door slammed open. Sighing, he looked over and saw a team of buff GPF men. "Looks like that'll have to wait."
Rainbow sighed and turned to Kitty. "You got anything cool I can use?" Kitty looked her over and handed Rainbow a pair of gold bracelets. "That's cool... But what about-?" Her eyes widened as Kitty pulled a bladed ring from behind the counter.
"You like it? An amazoness warrior gave me this. I just made it sharper." Kitty laughed.
Scootaloo went behind the counter and pulled out a crossbow with pink tipped darts."no one kill the guys I dart. You got to see what they do."
Everyone nods as Spike walks Soren to the kitchen, Phoenix moved so he was standing under the blade. "Ok. Let's talk about this before you boys do something stupid… again."
"Hands where I can see them!" The GPF unit leader spat.
"They never pick the living option." Phoenix sighed as he held his hands up, using one to point to the sword. Something he was glad the girls caught on and Scootaloo quietly took aim.
"HA!!! And they said you'd be a threat." The guys mocked as he calmly walked up to him. "Can you guys believe this?... Why is the black guy covering his mouth?... What?..." He turned to Phoenix and gasped at the smile on the wolf's face. "Fuck."
Scootaloo hopped behind the counter and aimed a bit at the sword. Kitty handed Rainbow a ring before asking one of the guys to come with her to the back room. Before leaving the room she gave Spike and the two stallions a glance before walking off. Spike pressed a switch on the side of the counter that started making a soft ticking sound.
Tick
As Phoenix moved into place, the others noticed his tail moving side to side in time with the ticks. The stallions pulled out some weapons as Spike grabbed some metal claws.
Tick
The GPF men look around the room as they slowly put the pieces together.
Tick
The large stallion slowly moved his hands close to two of the guys that stood in front of him as he slowly smiled.
Tick
The GPF captain who walked up to Phoenix slowly looked up as all hope of a premonition left as he realized what was going to happen.
Tick
Music started as Scootaloo made the shot, hitting the sword. Seconds later, the sword fell free and into Phoenix's waiting hand. He quickly brought the sword down on the guy cutting him in half before looking at the others.
As the song kicked into a quick beat, all hell broke loose. The stallion smashed the two men's heads together and started punching his way through the crowd as the GPF men charged at Phoenix and the others who returned the attack as they moved to the music.
One guy with an electric stick, hit Rainbow with full power. After a moment the two of them as well as several onlookers stood silently as she blinked and looked at the guy. His eyes went from the stick and followed the electric trail to her fist as it was swung at him. "Mommy."
Rainbow watched as he went flying then smirked. "Shocking." She laughed, and took the stick for herself.
Spike and the Guys did their best to keep the fight in one part of the room.
Scootaloo stayed behind the bar using a crossbow she kept there to snipe guys from cover. However her ear twitched and blood boiled at a comment one of the guys made. "Once we find that princess, we can have our fun with her before ditching her with the beasts. Heck-" was all he got out a Scootaloo sprang out and started punching the guy in the face.with brass knuckles. His comrades looked in shock and terror as she took him down with only a few blows.
"You are not going to touch my mother!" She shouted, punctuating each word with a punch. Her ear twitched and hand went up snatching a club from another guy. Which she quickly used to smash the guy's skull with, breaking his neck and the club. Taking the two half she went from one guy to the next stabbing them repeatedly till they stopped moving and going to the next.
As she felt a hand on her shoulder, she spun to stab them and was caught by Phoenix. After a moment of looking at him, she dropped the bloody weapons and fell into his arms crying as her body shook.
"It's ok." Phoenix said softly. "It's over." Picking her up in his arms he carried her to a chair that Spike pulled out for them and sat down holding her close. Taking a deep breath he looked to the others with rage and determination in his eyes. "Time to up the search."
The large stallion walked in and ripped the uniform off. "Man am I glad to be out of that." As he pulled off his t-shirt, a pair of large black wings shot open. "So… are you going to introduce me to these lovely amazones? Or should I just go check on the boys?"
"They're my mates." Phoenix warned.
"Got it." He sighed. "Still. Names? Or should I just call them Zena and Tepist?"
"That's Rainbow Dash. And this is Scootaloo." Phoenix replied as he kissed her forehead. "Kitty is her mother."
"Wait… back up… hold the phone… KITTY DELIVERED?!?!?!?! WHEN? WHERE? HOW?"
"Why do you care so much?" Rainbow spat. "Because of those thugs she had to… abandon her in Equestria." It felt wrong to talk about such things. But from what she knew…
"You did a good job buying them time." Phoenix sighed. "I just wish I knew how long she was away so we could help them." He added, motioning to the others.
The large stallion knelt down. "Scootaloo was it?" He asked brushing her mane back. "It's a beautiful name. And I'm happy to see you grow into such a lovely lady."
"Why do you care?" She huffed.
"I see you got your mother's sass." He laughed. "And my right hook I noticed."
"Wait. Are you?"
"I met your mother on a different planet. At the time, she was injured." Sighing he looked to the back door. "She was a spitfire back then…"
"Still is." Phoenix and Scootaloo corrected in unison.
"Right. It wouldn't be until we started dating that she'd tell me about her past. And it wouldn't be till I got the news that she told me about the GPF." He sighed pulling out a pair of booties from his pocket. "Soon after she gave me these. They found us. In order for her to get away… I went with them."
"That was what thirteen years ago?" Rainbow asked.
"More like twenty." He replied.
"Sounds about right. I did spend a few extra years here before you guys showed up." Scootaloo explained. After a few moments she slowly looked over at the stallion with a soft smile.
It was at that moment Kitty came out with the now former member of the GPF. "The papers are all sent." He said, tossing his uniform into the trash. "Thank you for the tea."
"It was my pleasure." She replied with a smile as he stepped over the bodies and walked out. Once he was gone she looked to the others. "Does she know?" After receiving a nod she continued. "Great. Because I have good and bad news for everyone." She took a deep breath and sighed. "They know about Equestria."
It took the group minutes to pack their things as Kitty and the stallion talked to Phoenix quietly in the corner. Rainbow helped Scootaloo pack as the guys gathered what they thought would be helpful. And with Spike's knowledge of planning he got from his time as Twilight's assistant, things went smoothly. Even if Flash flagged his tail every time Spike looked his way.
By the time the group was ready to move out the trio finished their chat and joined the Equestrians. "We have good news and… not so good news." Phoenix reported. "Good news is, Kitty and Knuckles are going to look for a way to save Twilight and Fluttershy." He took a deep breath and turned to Scootaloo. "The not so good news is they don't want you to go with them."
Scootaloo hung her head and sighed before smiling up at him. "That's OK. At least there's a chance for us to be a family afterwards. Right?" After getting a smile and nod she went over to Phoenix and kissed his lips. "Then I'll be happy to go with you."
It wasn't long before the group got their things onto the ship and they said their goodbyes.
Fluttershy smiled and giggled as she sat with animals as they ran around and played with her. One of the workers went over to her with a soft smile. "You're very good with them." She praised. "If you don't mind. Would you mind if I ask you a few questions?"
Fluttershy smiled and nodded before calmly petting one of the puppies.
"Great. Let's start with something simple. Do you have a pet?" She asked. As Fluttershy nodded, she continued. "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"Boy." Fluttershy replied calmly.
"What's his name?"
"Angel." Fluttershy replied absently.
"Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a pet?"
"Yes." Fluttershy said blankly.
Noticing Fluttershy's state of mind the worker looked at her notes. "We talked about your home land before. But we need to know. Is there a way to stop a unicorn from using their magic?"
"Slapping the horn would do the trick."
"And is there a way to counter their magic?"
"Some spells can be reflected with a mirror."
The worker nods. "And what's the chance that Twilight will try and go against the company?"
"As long as she knows I'm happy and safe. She'll do what you say to keep me safe."
The worker wrote down her notes. "Thank you." She took a deep breath. "When we finish our chat. I want you to remember how proud we are that you're being so helpful." Getting up, the work nodded. "Keep up the good work. And who knows. One day your dream will come true."
Fluttershy blinked and smiled. "Oh… ummm… thank you. I'm glad I'm able to help."
"And we're grateful for your help. Keep it up. And we might have a new position for you. Maybe even one that will grant you more interaction with your little friends." The worker giggled as she walked out.
Rarity sighed and held up a tuxedo. "I really hope this is the last thing you need me to do. My sisters and I still need to find our friends."
"Once she brings me the information I need. Then you two may go free." A calm voice sighed. "And are you done trying to making my place look like a glider bomb went off? It's not my style. And pink isn't my color."
"Come now darling. You can use more color in this place. Oh. And something to get rid of the smell of… what did you call it?"
"Gasoline."
"That." She sighed looking at another outfit. "Have you ever considered taking up stitching? It'll save you a ton in the long term."
As Rarity went on a hunchback rat went past and stopped at the shadows. "Sir. The little one has been spotted. It seems as though she found out what we need."
"Then why are you telling me this? Why isn't she here now?" The voice hissed.
"Oh… ummm… she… ummm… called us…" the rat gulped as the sound of an annoyed growl came from the shadows.
Having seen what was coming next once already, Rarity quickly brought over some tea. "Well. Isn't that nice, sir? Such a loyal servant to tell you right away about how the mission is-"
"The call was an hour ago." The rat pointed out. To which Rarity facepalmed.
"You just had to say it." She muttered under her breath.
Seconds passed as the rat realized to late what he had done. Before he was able to saw anything in his defense, his eyes widened as black tendrils shot out and began to rip him apart before dropping his limbs into a hole.
"Now… about that tea. And your friends?" The voice asked calmly.
Rarity gulped before fixing his tea with a nervous smile. "Right… I was telling you about…" gulp. "My friends…"
The trip back to the ship was mostlyspent going over their plans to save Fluttershy and convince Twilight who was the good guys. An idea that quickly sank when Phoenix pointed out that this side of the universe mostly had killers and the like.
"I guess that includes us now." Rainbow sighed as she looked at her hands. "It's not going to be easy to explain to the ponies back home about this."
"You said that you were in the military right?" Phoenix asked.
"Basically that's what they are. Why?"
Scootaloo gasped and smiled at her. "You think if you told them how you helped protect a princess it'll help smooth it over?"
Rainbow looked to Phoenix as after seeing his agreeing smile, grew a smile of her own. "You know what kid? You're right. That would help."
"Plus you're fighting a corrupt government to save your friends." He added.
Jumping out of her seat Rainbow pointed back to the planet. "What are we waiting for then? Let's save our friends!"
"Cool it Dash. We may have our targets. But we still need a plan. They still hold all the cards right now." Phoenix sighed.
Just then the speakers crackled to life. "Is this on? Hello? Mister Phoenix?"
"Bloom? Is something wrong?" He replied. "We're on our way back now with some of your friends."
"That's nice and all. Really." She replied nervously. "But… would you mind going back to the planet? Walker told me that my sister accidentally activated one of those teleporter… things. And was sent to someplace called… The Pound?"
Phoenix quickly got to the controls and readjusted their destination. "Don't worry Bloom. We'll get your sister back." He confirmed before cutting transmission and adding. "Even if I have to burn a few places down to do it."
Seeing how drastic things got oddly brought a smile to the faces of the two mares, as they started preparing for the coming fight.
In the back room of The Pound, Applejack sat against the wall panting as she held a cloth to her chest as a large shadowy figure walked up behind a group of large feral dogs.
"Either you're in heat or we have to get these boys laid more often." He laughed. "I'd hate to do this. But… seeing you're trespassing. I can't just let you hide out back here."
"So what ya gonna do?" Applejack asked.
"You have a few choices. And trust me. You don't want to be on the streets in your condition. First is you let these boys have their way with you."
"Not happening."
"Compared to one of the other options. They're a lot more gentle. Anyway, option two is you service the boss. Or act as my pet." He finished.
"Ya got to be kidding. Why would I do any of those?"
"For starters. You're trespassing. So my keeping these boys from plowing you is in itself a favor. And two, if you leave right now… a lot worse will happen to you." He replied with a shrug. "I can't promise your safety if you leave. Nore that you won't be in pain if you go with servicing the boss. But I can promise to help you get through the other two options."
"And what would I have to do if I played the role of your pet?"
"Mostly follow me around on all fours." He shrugged. "The boss may need more convincing. So I'll have you do simple tasks around the place. At most you'll have to let one or two guys mount you. Still a better offer than the boss or these four."
Applejack thought it over and she looked around. She was definitely in a kenal. And if what he said was true. There was only one option that would get her out of this place in one piece. "All I gotta do is act like your pet?"
"That about covers it. And if they need convincing then I know a few boys that will be a lot more gentle than this lot." He laughed.
"Fine." She sighed, getting on all fours. "Ya think ya can send a message to my friends about where I am?"
"Who are they?"
"Phoenix and his crew."
He laughed and pushed the dogs into cages. "Then don't worry. He'll come find you. No doubt. Come on. Time to buy you some time and put on a show." With a nod, Applejack followed him. Unaware of how the following time with him would change her life… forever.
Twilight stood looking into the wolf's eyes. It was hard for anyone to know what exactly was going on. It all happened so quickly. At some point, the GPF bots had shown up and somehow a fight brought the two to the stand down they found themselves.
"Twilight?"
"Criminal." She hissed back.
Phoenix closed his eyes and sighed. "So… they're using her against you." Twilight's ear twitched at his words. "I understand why you're so desperate to follow their orders. But know this, they will never let her go."
"LIER!!!!" Twilight snapped. "ONCE WE GET THE GIRLS TOGETHER! THEY'LL BRING US HOME!..." She took a deep breath. "All I have to do is bring you in. And all will run smoothly."
"Y'all really think so?" A voice called from one of the buildings. Looking over, Twilight blinked at seeing Applejack walking out with a robot head on the end of a steel beam. "Sorry boss. But when Twilight gets like this. It's best we talk her down."
"We?" The two replied looking around to see Apple Bloom, Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo walking over.
"I told you girls to get the people to safety."
"Stay back! He's dangerous!"
The girls rolled their eyes as Scootaloo shot a bot with her slingshot. "Hun? If you two are going to fuck. Can we at least get out of the street first?" Scootaloo sighed as her friends laughed.
"Scootaloo! Language." Twilight snapped.
"Twilight, friendship." Rainbow snapped back. "Really. You'd think coming to this would reveal the hypocritical side of you."
Twilight blinked. "What… what did you call me?"
"They told me about how you were back home." Phoenix huffed. "And she's right. Choosing to join a group that wants to control the universe is the opposite of harmony."
Twilight hung her head for a moment. "It's… not like that."
Phoenix thought for a moment and looked at Rainbow. "You mind taking care of the lights?"
Rainbow looked at the light poles for a moment then smiled and nodded at Phoenix, before zipping over and with the cords of the fallen bots, connected the light poles before throwing the end into the light, turning the street into an electric cage.
"There. Now they won't hear us." Phoenix informed.
"But they will see us." Twilight replied.
Smilingly Phoenix got in a fighting position. "Then let's give them a show."
Twilight rubbed her head. "Right. And I take it you have a plan to get us home safely."
"If not, warn the princesses about what's coming." He laughed, before charging at her.
Twilight jumped over him. "Then tell me. What have you done to my friends? And why does Scootaloo look older?"
Sliding to a stop he rubbed the back of his neck. "That's a bit complicated. And it'll take more than a fight to explain." He replied tossing a severed robot head at her.
Slapping it to the side. Twilight licked her lips. "Then how about telling me about the magic I'm sensing from you?" Before Phoenix was able to react, she teleported in front of him and grabbed his neck. "I would love to learn more about it."
"Then how about a sample?" Without warning, he pulled her into a kiss before pushing her into a pile of robots. Getting up he dusted himself off. "Enjoy your nap." He sighed. "And say hi to Pinkie for me."
Using his sword, Phoenix cut a path through the lines. Walking with the girls back to the ship he smiled. "Once we get back to the ship. Maybe we should talk about what happened."
Twilight fought to stay awake. But at the sound of Pinkie's name, she let sleep take her and slip into unconsciousness.
Twilight slowly opened her eyes and saw a table that screamed Pinkie. With a relaxed sigh Twilight smiled and looked around spotting a white rabbit sipping tea.
"You're late." He said, pulling out a pocket watch and looked at it. "Or are you early?" Shrugging he sipped his tea. "One can never tell when time moves in many ways."
"What?" Twilight asked. "Time moves in only one direction. Everyone knows that."
He laughed and set his cup down before turning to face her. "Oh? Then tell me. Did you choose to do… wait. What is the most recent news you heard about Scootaloo?"
"She's older than she was when I last saw her." Twilight replied, becoming increasingly confused. "And there's something going on between her and that wolf."
After a moment the rabbit turned and called off to someone. "Hold off on the cake. It hasn't happened yet!" He then turned back to Twilight and smiled. "In that case. Did you choose to go after the wolf?"
"No. I had to or-"
"The organization would do something to your friend. However, allow me to redirect that fact. Did you choose to NOT ask your friends for help?"
"I didn't have a chance. Or a choice." Twilight spat. She then froze at the sight of his knowing smile. "I…" Her head dropped. "I was afraid they were being controlled by the wolf."
"You choose to risk your friendship in the hopes that the group would keep their end of your agreement."
Twilight took a deep breath and sighed. "I… I guess I did."
"Which brings us to now." The rabbit laughed. "And don't worry. Pinkie is fine. She's just putting a few things together."
Twilight smiled. "Knowing her. It's a party or a big surprise."
The two shared a laugh before the rabbit picked up his tea. "No doubt you've heard about me. Or at the least seen the wolf's powers."
"I have seen what the wolf can do. But… I don't know about you." Twilight confirmed.
"Understandable." He nodded. "Few really know what I can do. So allow me to give you a little tip." He said shirking at her from over his cup. "If you want to learn more about him. You have two choices. Convince him to come with you and convince the organization to let you study him in private. Or convince the organization to let you join him."
Twilight thought for a moment. "Both sound risky. It's doubtful that either option would work."
"Bothe can work." He sighed. "But only if you can use that big brain of yours to make it work."
Twilight closed her eyes in thought before opening them to find herself in a pile of robots. Laying next to her was a small device that she quickly pocketed before getting up. She had learned a lot about the wolf. And even if she was going to trust the GPF. She still wanted to learn more about him.
As they traveled back to the ship, the girls talked about what happened up to them getting on the ship. Applejack was surprised and happy for the two girls' new discovery and future wedding.
"What y'all say to a few drinks when we get back to the ship to celebrate." Applejack suggested with a large smile.
Phoenix sighed and smiled. "After what we went through. I think you girls deserve the break. So why not."
Rainbow and Scootaloo looked at each other biting their lips nervously. Rainbow looked over at a nearby device that had two screens with identical "+".
"Should we tell him?" Scootaloo whispered.
Rainbow looked over and sighed. "I'll do it."
"Phoenix?..." Rainbow Dash called, approaching Phoenix as the intercom clicked on. "You're going to be a dad."
"WHAT!!!!" Three voices shouted over the intercom as Applejack and the guys looked at her in shock.
"Who's the mother?" Bloom asked.
"Mothers." Rainbow corrected. "Me and Scoots are pregnant."
"How do ya know?" Applejack asked.
Rainbow looked back to the two screens. "The ship told us."
"Is that even possible?" Apple Bloom asked.
"It scans your body in multiple areas that are involved with the process of childbirth." Spy replied. "So it's the most accurate way to tell that we have."
"But it hasn't even been a week since we mated." Scootaloo gasped.
"My clan give birth a bit differently. Chances are that within a few months, it'll be time. But expect one hell of hunger till then." Phoenix explained. The two expecting mothers gulped as they sat in thought about their future. "I'll make a few calls and see if I can call in a few favors. If you're still set on marriage before child birth."
"We will too." Psy added.
Rainbow and Scootaloo looked at each other before nodding and replied in unison. "Please do."
Meanwhile in the middle of a junkyard, Sweetie Belle and the large dragon went into an abandoned house where Sweetie sat next to an intercom. "Hay… sis? You there?"
After a few moments Rarity replied. "Oh Sweetie. I'm glad to hear your voice. Any good news?"
"Mission accomplished." Sweetie replied softly. "They have two of your friends. And are looking for the others."
"And what about your friends?" Rarity asked nervously.
"Still missing. I did manage to put those bugs in place like you said I should."
"And?" A dark voice asked from the speaker.
"Oh… hi boss… ummm… hold on. I'll see if there's anything new." She replied before quickly moving away from the microphone to have a mini heart attack and check her mini computer. "Ok… it looks like they're getting desperate… something about speeding things along… target alpha has feathers… wait… do you think that means?"
"Continue." The voice ordered in a surprisingly calm tone.
"Yes sir… oh no…"
"What?" Bothe voices asked.
"They found our home."
The line was silent for a moment before a low growl came from the speaker. "So they want to play that game do they?... fine. Read what it says about target alpha again."
Sweetie looked over the notes. "It just updated. I don't know what most of this means. But it looks like… whoever target alpha is, is starting to convince Twilight to join them. And that doesn't sound good."
"Then my little spy." The voice purred. "I thank you for your services. And ask one final thing before I release the two of you."
"And what's that?"
"Would you rather join her or stay with me?" The voice asked darkly. Sweetie gulped and looked at the dragon who shrugged. "You know going back for them is dangerous. So you only have one real option. Say the words."
Sweetie thought for a moment. "I…"
"Know that if you refuse. There is a good chance that I will drop your sister at their doorstep." The voice suggested.
"I'll be fine Sweetie. If you want to go find your friends-" Rarity said softly.
"Silence!"
Sweetie took a deep breath. "I believe in my sister… and I want to find my friends… so… what if I told you what I found out from them?"
The line was silent for a moment. "Your sister should be proud. Your idea saved her from her friend's fate. Depending on what news you give me. Depends on how much longer I hold your sister. Then again, I might just treat myself to her if you take too long."
"Understood sir…" Sweetie sighed. "I'll… let you know when I find them… and what I find out."
"Good…" the voice sighed. "Pray it doesn't take longer than a week." With that they hung up leaving Sweetie Belle to crawl into the dragon's arm and shiver in fear of what might happen to her sister.
"It'll be ok Sweetie." The dragon cooed. "Everything will be fine. I got you."
Sweetie shivered and pressed up against him. "I don't know what to do. Where could my friends be? How am I going to find them?"
"You're not alone Sweetie. You have me." He replied softly.
"I… I want you to take me." She whimpered.
"Sweetie. You know what will happen if-"
"I don't care. We've danced around it for long enough. I want you to finish in me." Sweetie sniffed.
Taking a deep breath he sighed. "Fine. But only on that one condition."
Sweetie looked into his eyes. "I give myself to you as your mate. To survive you and please you. In any way you desire. My master and mate."
Sighing he licked her neck. "I do not wish to be your master. But I shall take you as my mate. And swear to protect you and your kin with my life." He slowly ran a claw down her side as he spoke. "Speak my name. And I shall give you what you desire."
Closing her eyes, Sweetie relaxed her body and prepared for the long night that was to come. "Silver."
After her long trip back to HQ, Twilight paced the floor of her work station. She hated the fact that she was so close to completing her task and getting several of her friends back. Only to fail to… him…
"Something on your mind?" The boss asked as he stood at the door watching.
Twilight considered how much she should tell him before speaking. "Things have become complicated." She sighed. "He convinced them that he's the good guy."
"No matter. As long as the job is completed. They can believe what they want." He sighed.
"I want him."
"Come again?"
Twilight turned to face him. "I want the wolf. He has magic I've never seen before. I want to study it. Study him… maybe even…"
The boss tapped his chin in thought for a moment. "Yes… a child with your intellect and his powers would be beneficial…" He smiled and turned to her. "Very well. You have a new mission. Get him here to impregnate you. And what you do with him after that is up to you. If all else fails. Simply get his seed and we can do the process here."
Twilight turned to look at her notes. "Understood. I will make him mine. At all costs."
Once on the ship, Phoenix locked himself in his room as the others got settled in. However, due to their request to get married sooner than later, Rainbow and Scootaloo were put in one of the guest rooms.
Pacing back and forth in his room Phoenix grumbled as he talked to one of his contacts. "There has to be an easier way to throw together a wedding in short notice."
"I'm more surprised you were able to hook two females. Not to mention find the daughter of the missing dragon clan." A voice remarked from his room's private speaker. "I have to know. How long did it take to knock them up?"
"I think… one night with each?" He replied with a shrug. "Don't know if it's luck or not. But that's not what's important right now. I have a wedding to plan and a short time to do it."
"What about the others?"
"They're taking care of my future mates." He sighed before slumping onto a chair. "Please tell me there's still a place I can go and not be shot at."
The line was silent for a few moments. "In fact… There is one that I can think of." The voice replied. "And if I'm not mistaken. There may be someone there that can do the ceremony."
"Oh?"
"Indeed sir. In fact I luckily received a letter from HIM that someone has arrived in the area that can do it." The voice informed. "If you want. I can go over and tell them about what you need."
Phoenix stopped and thought for a moment. "He contacted you?... That's troubling. If HE is getting involved. That means…" Turning to the door he took a deep breath. "Send me the coordinates. We'll see you there."
The transmission cut out with a loud beep as Phoenix walked out of his room. "Attention all hands!" He called. "We're departing for an emergency location. Get to your station now!" With a call of "SIR!" the crew, joined by their apprentice, rushed to the main hall. Phoenix took a deep breath as he sent a silent prayer that whatever reason HE got involved meant they were able to avoid a disaster.
Silver sighed and set Sweetie Belle in the back seat of his car before driving down the street. "Don't worry Bell. Everything will be fine. I promise." He said softly before sending out a couple of transactions. "Let's find out just what awaits us at our next stop.
The white rabbit walked down a flower path. "Such a lovely day for a wedding. Wouldn't you say my friend?" He asked a hooded figure that nodded in agreement. "Who's wedding? A royal wedding. Naturally." He replied. "I expect our contact will arrive soon to talk about what will be needed. No doubt you won't have any problems with that."
The two stopped at a pond as he smiled at the person. "There is a high chance that two other parties will show." He pointed out. "Yes. That's why I asked for you to come. There's less of a chance for things to go bad with you here." He looked out to the distance for a moment. "Let us hope you can bring them together. At the very least you'll be able to help the lovers."
Twilight sat in the passenger seat of the squad ship as it flew over the town. Looking through her notes, she sighed to herself. "Hold in there Fluttershy. Just a little bit longer and we'll be able to return home." Rubbing the side of her head she moaned softly. "Just have to find the others… and that wolf… especially the wolf."
Fluttershy sat in the room with some feral dogs giggling as she played with them. The captain watched from a two-way window with a smirk. "I think it's about time we add a little bit of motivation for our friend to work faster." He commented.
"Sir?" One of the workers asked.
"Move mis Shy to level two of her training." He instructed. "I think vapor will work best. And be sure to record the results."
"Yes sir." The worker replied before pressing a few buttons, causing a colorless vapor to fill the room Fluttershy was in.
Within a few moments, Fluttershy started to feel light headed as the dogs circled her. She sat still as they tugged her clothes off while she gave less and less resistance each second that passed. It wasn't long before she was topples and sucking one of the dog's dick as the others fought with her pants to get them off.
"Good. Send Twilight a quick reminder to finish. Or her friend will be given a more permanent position in the animal care department." He laughed. "Oh and save a copy to go in the volt."
Twilight looked over a list of possible locations the wolf might be hiding her friends. And more importantly, where he might be himself. It didn't take long for her to receive reports from scouts that had been posted in those locations.
Angered from the reports of him not being in any of the areas, she threw the tablet against the wall. "Where is he!?!" She snapped… Just then the vehicle jerked to a stop causing her to fall out of her seat. "What the hell was that?"
"Unknown lifeform is blocking the road." The robotic driver replied.
"What do you mean unknown?" Twilight asked as she got up and looked out the window at the white rabbit dressed like a circus ringleader that smiled at her. "It's just a rabbit." She huffed. "Use the speaker and tell him to move."
"Error. Rabbit DNA not detected. Error. Speaker system is unresponsive."
Rolling her eyes, Twilight got out and walked over to the rabbit. "You're obstructing traffic. Move."
The rabbit tipped his hat at her. "My apologies Twilight." He said softly. "Or do you prefer Princess Twilight? But I was lost in thought for a bit."
Twilight blinked. "What did you call me?"
He tilted his head in confusion. "Sorry. Did I get the wrong time-line?" He rubbed his chin in thought. "I could have sworn she said you-"
Upon hearing "she", Twilight grabbed his arms. "Who? Who told you about me?"
The rabbit grinned. "Does twitchy tail tell you anything?"
Twilight gasped and let go before stepping back. "Is she the reason you're here?"
"No." He replied. After a moment of silence he continued. "Oh yeah. I was going to invite you to something. And I should ask. Do you truly think your shy friend is safe?"
Twilight thought for a moment. "Why do you ask?"
"Just something to think about." He replied with a shrug. "Anyway. If you want to go to the wedding. Just know that no robots can get there. So you'd be on your own."
"Why would I want to go to a wedding?" She asked.
In response, he smiled and handed her a card that had an orange feather and rainbow lightning bolt on it. As soon as she saw it, Twilight gasped and covered her mouth in shock as she read the invite.
"You are cordially invited to the wedding of Phoenix, Princess Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash. Contact your nearest clan member for location and transportation."
Twilight looked from the letter to the rabbit. "Ok. How do I get to the wedding?" She asked.
The rabbit simply turned and started walking away. "I can bring you there. But I should warn you. Your boss isn't going to like it if you return without them."
Twilight looked back at the transport in thought for a moment before following him. "Then let's hope I can convince them to come back with me." She sighed.
The rabbit smiled and stopped next to a pool. "Interesting idea. But I wonder if you'll still think that when it's over."
"What do you mean by that?" She asked, standing between him and the pool.
"You'll see." Was all he said before shoving her into the water.
Once the ship's autopilot was set, Phoenix and his crew went to their rooms to prepare for the wedding. While Walker worked with Phoenix and the other guys, Psy had the girls in her room as she worked on getting them set up for their big day.
"Remember." Psy explained as she adjusted Scootaloo's dress. "Stay silent. Clan weddings are performed through the heart. And no words are shared with those that are getting married."
"Why?" Applejack asked as she adjusted Apple Bloom's dress.
"It's believed that words can hide truths where the heart hides nothing." Psy replied.
Applejack thought about it for a moment before smiling at the idea. However her sister just became more confused and asked. "How would they say I do?"
Psy went over to her work desk and pulled out a candle. "This." She replied. "It's a special candle that is made by the people who wish to marry a clan member." Sighing, she set it on the table. "I hoped one day to use mine… but it was not meant to be." Shrugging, she turned to the others. "I'll walk you through making your own. And don't worry. As long as your heart truly wishes to be with him. Then all will be well."
Rainbow and Scootaloo smiled as they joined her at the table to make their own sacred candles as Applejack and Applebloom went through other parts of the party preparations.
In the guys room, Spike struggled with his outfit as Soren and Flash worked to figure out how their tribal dressings were supposed to be worn. It wouldn't take much for someone to tell that they were unsure about how things worked. But they weren't about to argue or deny that they were interested in what was coming.
Twilight fell onto a bed of flowers before slowly getting up and dusted herself off. She didn't fully know what was going on. But getting the chance to see her friends and getting some answers was worth the risk. Taking a deep breath she started walking down the only path she saw. It only took a few steps for the rabbit's words to click.
"Wait… PRINCESS SCOOTALOO?!?!?!?!?!?!"
She gasped before breaking into a full run, letting her jacket fall off as she got rid of anything that might slow her down till she was in only her jeans and tank top.
"So… how long does the wedding last?" Scootaloo asked, as she sat back waiting for the candles.
"Three days." Psy replied softly. "The first day is to ask the spirits for permission. Then comes the tests. And finally the banquet to end the wedding."
Apple Bloom fussed with her top. "And we all have to wear so little?"
"If you want to be a part of the wedding and not just a guest. Then yes." Psy replied. "And don't worry. Rose is out looking for your other friends. She'll make sure they show."
Silver sat in the back seat of his car with Sweetie Belle resting on his lap. Looking out the window he smiled at the approaching black cat. "Hay hot stuff. Long time no see."
"Same to you, you sluty black widow." He laughed, stroking Sweetie's hair.
"I see you found a sweetheart." She teased. "You hear the news?"
"Of course I have. That's where we're going. I just wish her sister could go." Silver sighed.
"Where is she?"
"With HIM." Silver replied flatly.
"Well… fuck… I feel sorry for her." She sighed looking off to the distance. "I wonder though. If he's trying to turn her… or if she's trying to turn him."
Silver chuckled and shook his head. "Either way. Let's hope our friend is able to pass on the news. Sweetie would be heartbroken if her sister was left out of this event."
With a nod the cat walked off flicking her tail as the dragon rolled his eyes muttering. "Best slut ever."
Rarity sighed as she sat at her work desk as she sketched a new outfit. "It truly is odd how all he wants is new outfits." She sighed to herself before looking over at a gnome that had its arms out with different fabrics draped over its arms. She examined the fabrics before pulling a few off and placing them in a pile.
She then took the fabrics that were left and started working on the outfit. "Come now dear. There are plenty of worse things you can be doing than helping me with these outfits." She sighed as she worked.
"I agree." A voice called from her mirror.
Rarity blinked and looked at the gnome who pointed at the mirror. "Ummm… who are you? And how are you talking to me?"
"I go by many names." The voice replied as a white rabbit stepped into view. "But that's not as important as the wedding that's happening soon."
"Oh?... well. I'm happy to hear that." She replied with a smile before returning to work.
"I would hope so. Your friend is excited to be getting married." The rabbit pointed out.
Rarity blinked in shock as she froze. "Come again?"
"I can help you get to the wedding in time. But you'll need to convince him to let you go."
Rarity thought for a moment before getting up and putting the fabrics to the side. "Then I don't have time to lose." She paused for a moment and smiled at the gnome. "You may go for now." She told him before turning to the mirror. "How will I get a hold of you when I get my reply?"
"Don't worry about that. I'll wait."
Smiling, Rarity calmly but quickly walked out of the room and made her way to her throne room. She had a mission and had a few ideas on how she was going to convince him to let her go. If nothing else, she was going to try and convince him by tugging at his heart.
It didn't take her long to arrive at the throne and the waiting figure that sat upon his throne. "Have you finished the uniforms I instructed you to make?" He asked flatly.
"Not quite yet I'm afraid." She replied softly. "I received some news about my friends. And I came to ask for a favor."
"Really?... and what would that be?"
"I'd like to go to my friend's wedding." She replied. "We made a promise that we'd go to each other's wedding. And I'd hate to be the first to break my promise."
"I see." He replied flatly. "And what would you do for me in return?"
"Well…" She replied as she tried to think of something. "What would you want from me?"
"Letting me choose what your payment will be." He chuckled. "A wise choice. One you may live to regret. But wise nonetheless." He took a deep breath as he thought for a moment before replying. "How about your hand in marriage?"
"What?!?"
"I've lived for a long time. Even if I don't look it. And after being forsaken by my master. I've had time to… reflect on what I wanted." He replied. "And one of them is a bride."
"Well I am flattered that you would consider me to be your choice. But I always pictured marrying a noble after falling in love." She countered. As an afterthought, she smiled and added. "But I wouldn't be against the idea. If you're willing to step out of the shadows and spend time with me. It would even make designing an outfit for you a lot easier."
He thought for a moment before sighing. "Very well. But I expect pictures of the wedding. After all, your friends will be coming to our wedding as well."
Rarity bowed before quickly walking back to her room. "He said yes!"
Once she was out of sight, the figure got up as a grinning red muzzle poked out of the shadows. "There's more than one way to gain power." He laughed, licking his lips.
Rarity stepped through the mirror and arrived on Phoenix's ship. Blinking, she looked around in confusion for a moment before noticing a door with Brides' room room on it. Smiling, she knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A familiar voice called back.
"Applejack? You're here too, darling?" Rarity replied.
After a moment the door swung open and Rarity was pulled into a group hug. "It's good to see you." Rainbow cheered.
"I'm glad to see you too darling." Rarity replied, before pulling away to look her over. "And might I say. You look amazing." She paused to wipe away a tear. "I never thought you'd be the first of us to get married. But… just look at you."
"Thanks." Rainbow chuckled. "You here for the wedding?"
"Of course, darling. I wouldn't miss it." Rarity laughed before noticing Scootaloo. "Is that little Scootaloo?"
"Not little any more." Scootaloo giggled. "And wait till you see our future husband. He's super hot."
Rarity smiled softly and sighed. "Well. I wouldn't be much of a designer if I didn't contribute something to my friend's wedding. Now would I?" She laughed before moving to a table where the jewelry was. "Let's see… perfect." She cheered before grabbing ear clips. "These would look perfect on you." She cheered before putting the clips on Rainbow and Scootaloo.
"There. Now we just have to wait till the wedding starts." Psy explained.
Phoenix and Walker helped Spike and the guys prepare as they waited for the announcement of their arrival.
"You nervous?" Spike asked.
"Not really. I've gone to plenty of weddings. And I trust the spirits will approve of our union." Phoenix replied as he grabbed his swords.
"Your people take weapons to your wedding?" Soren asked.
"It's to show that at any time we will be ready to lay down our life for each other." He replied. "No doubt Psy will be giving the girls their weapons as well."
"YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME!!!" Rarity cried.
"Chill Rars. It's tradition." Rainbow huffed as Scootaloo examined her new compact crossbow and fan.
Twilight slid to a stop at the edge of a field of flowers. Panting she looked around before spotting the white rabbit making his way over to her.
"Wait… you? How did you get here?" She asked as he got closer.
"I have my ways." He laughed. "Hope it wasn't hard to find this place. You're a little early. But don't worry. There will be others coming that are a little late…" He paused and looked at the sun. "Or are they going to be early?..."
"What are you talking about?"
"Don't worry." He sighed. "Anyway. Come, we need to get you dressed for the wedding."
Twilight opened her mouth to say something but thought against it and decided to follow him and see what was awaiting her.
Silver smiled as he drove down the street as Sweetie Belle fussed in the backseat with her outfit.
"Why do I have to wear this outfit? Am I supposed to go undercover or something?" She asked before smirking. "Or do you just want to see me in something more scandalous?"
"I would like to see you in tribal outfits. But no. You're not going undercover." He laughed as he kept an eye on the road for something. "We're going to a special event."
"Oh? And what would that be?" She asked, fixing her top.
"You'll see. Just remember that when things start. Don't talk." He replied. "There'll be plenty of time for it later."
"Really?" She asked climbing into the front passenger seat. "Sounds super important. Any chance of impotent information?"
He laughed and pulled up to an old abandoned gas station. "Oh… You'll see."
"So why are we here?"
Silver looked over at a mirror that was resting against the wall. "Waiting for our invite."
Sweetie sighed and sat back with a huff as the two watched to mirror.
Back at GPF, Fluttershy sat in a room with dogs petting a few of them as she ideally smiled at the big ones that were laying across from her, watching for their next chance with her. Even if she didn't know it, her k9 friends saw her as nothing more than just another bitch for them to break and rut at their leisure.
Taking a deep breath she waited for the puppies to go play before crawling over to them. As she got halfway across the room, a voice caused her to stop and look at the door as the commander walked in followed by a white rabbit in a suit.
"Here she is. Our most promising new recruit." The commander announced.
"Why is she on all fours like that?" The rabbit asked.
The commander shrugged. "It seems it's her way of bonding with them. From how well she's getting along with them, I'd say it works great. In fact we were going to introduce her to some of our other animals."
"I see." The rabbit replied, rubbing his chin. "I just happen to know a special guy that could use some special attention from her. If you don't mind me borrowing her for a bit, that is."
The commander rubbed his chin in thought as he looked at Fluttershy. "I really shouldn't. She has a lot of responsibilities here after all."
"I understand. I was going to pay for the three or four days she'd be away. But…" the rabbit sighed as he turned to walk away.
"Hold on." The commander called. "As long as it's not against our laws. I suppose… a few days won't hurt."
The rabbit smiled and handed a suitcase over before getting Fluttershy dressed in a tribal dress. "There you go. All set to meet your new friend." He said softly before getting her to her feet and walking her out the door.
Twilight arrived at a large field of flowers that had a gazebo that looked like it was made of vines and flowers. She let out a low whistle as she looked at the line of flowers that led to some mirrors.
At first Twilight was confused about why they were there. However her answer came when one began to glow as the rabbit came out with Fluttershy in tow.
"Fluttershy? How? When? WHAT?!?!?!"
"Oh good. You're here." The rabbit cheered.
"What are you talking about? You brought me here." Twilight spat. "And why is my friend dressed like that?"
"It's just traditional maiden clothes." He replied, leading Fluttershy over to a bed of flowers.
Fluttershy gave Twilight a weak smile. "Don't worry Twilight. I'll be fine."
Twilight let out a soft sigh before giving her a soft hug. "As long as we're here together. It should be fine."
"Now. Why don't you two go in the tent out back and get Twilight dressed for the wedding." The rabbit suggests as he pulls out a pocket watch. "And it looks like I have just enough time to gather the rest of our guests." He announced before walking off leaving the two to go into the tent.
Back at GPF, the commander sat in front of a large screen showing his bots gathering citizens into jeeps. He smirked at the growing number of "volunteers" to help with their studies and experiments.
Pressing a button on his remote, he switched the feed to one that showed a distant group talking in the middle of the street. "Oh look. More volunteers. Those rebels are such helpful people." He laughed.
Within minutes the feed went to static for a moment before revealing Kitty smirking at it. Blinking in shock he switched feed, only to find the same image.
"I want to start by announcing to the head of the GPF." She announced. "Choose your actions wisely. Because even if I fall. The Dragon Clan won't end. And you. Will. Fall." Pausing for a moment she smiled as her expression shifted to one of pride. "To the members of the sister clans. The promised day is here! It's time to rise as one!"
Hearing that, he smashed the remote before turning and looked in shock at a pillar of black smoke that sat a few feet from him. "What is taking so long?" A dark voice asked.
"My apologies master. The… volunteers of this world don't have the level of power needed to free you." He replied, quickly throwing himself to the ground and bowing before it. Fearing it's rage he quickly added. "But I have recently learned about a place with the power you need."
The smoke was silent for a moment before replying. "Good. Then as a gift for finding such a place. I shall send you my general to aid in your tasks." Within moments a cloaked figure stepped out. "Oh… and a few of my pets to help with your little projects."
As it faded, the head of the GPF looked up at the cloaked figure in fear. "Go play with your toys." It said in a dark crackly voice. "I'll handle preparations for departure."
Silver smiled and got out of the car before helping Sweetie Belle out. "Looks like it's time." He announced before the two made their way to the now glowing mirror.
"I can't wait to see the girls." Sweetie giggled as she followed him. "And introduce them to my special somepony."
Silver laughed and pulled her into a kiss. "I'm sure there will be plenty of surprises all around." He replied, lifting her into his arms before stepping through the mirror.
Phoenix took a deep breath and looked at the guys as he waited in front of a full body mirror.
"I can't believe this is happening." Spike announced. "I get to be a part of another wedding. Best of all. It's the wedding of two of my friends."
Walker laughed and rested a hand on his shoulder. "Relax kid. Remember this wedding isn't like most weddings. You have to stay silent."
Spike nodded and smiled as the mirror started to glow. Taking a deep breath, the guys made their way out of the door.
The rabbit sighed as an old silver fox walked over to sit close to the altar. Smiling, he looked over to the groom's side of the seating and nodded to an old looking tank of a wolf with a war ax, who returned the gesture.
Smiling, the rabbit looked between them and gave a gentle bow before looking at the mirrors. "Like the rising of the sun. The start of a new day and a new story begins." He sighed softly. "And soon a new chapter in the lives of three souls will be written."
Taking a deep breath he pulled out three books and placed them on the altar. "As our friends gather on this day. I ask the spirits to bless this land and this moment so that these memories may be shared with future generations and friends."
Silver and Sweetie stepped out into the field and smiled at their friends. Seeing Twilight, Sweetie rushed over and gave her and Fluttershy a hug as Silver hugged Phoenix.
"Sweetie. How do you know that dragon? Who is he?" Twilight asked.
"Silver is an old friend of the wolf." Sweetie explained with a soft blush. "And my lover."
"YOUR WHAT?!?!"
"What? In pony terms it wouldn't be strange if Celestia took a stallion like your brother as her husband. Right?" Sweetie asked.
"But they're both adults. And… wait… how old are you? How long have you been here?" Twilight asked as she felt like her brain was melting.
Sweetie shrugged. "One or two years I think. And my age doesn't matter anyway. He's not a normal dragon."
Twilight sighed and shook her head. "Fine. Not like it's going to be the strongest thing to happen today."
"If you all wouldn't mind. The wedding is about to begin." The rabbit announced as everyone took their places. The rabbit raised a hand to the doors. "All who have been invited hear my words and welcome with your hearts opened wide to the brides of the hour. Remember to stay silent till after I announce the outcome."
Within moments of him saying that, the doors merged together forming one large fantasy door. After a moment the door opened and out came the girls, friends of brides walked next to the groom's with the two brides walking out last. The first thing Twilight noticed was that like the rest of the group that was already there, apart from the rabbit, was dressed in either fancy tribal garments or in classic tribal dressing. Making the division of representation of the two clans perfectly down the middle.
Everyone stood silently as they took their positions before the brides calmly walked down the line with their eyes closed. Twilight noticed that her friends mirrored the actions of the others before joining them with her head hung and eyes closed.
The rabbit smiled as the two mares stood next to Phoenix and waved his hand over the books.
The books opened in unison and started to automatically turn pages at lightning speed as the rabbit looked over them. He watched as their lives flashed before his eyes. From birth to that very moment played before him with all their secrets and desires were shown in perfect clarity. There was nothing they were able to hide from him.
He looked over Scootaloo's past and saw her adoption. And her new family leaving her in Ponyville. The struggles she went through. The letters she looked forward to. The friends she made. The mare she looked up to. The fear of never being able to fly.the shock of being striped away from them. Her life with the female she would learn is her mother. And the wolf she fell in love with. With all that he saw, there was little doubt that she would be a good leader. His glance into her personal furniture showed such possibilities. But alone she wouldn't be able to face the darkness to come.
A glance into Rainbow's life showed proud parents. Perhaps too proud? Nevertheless, they were vital for planting the seeds of confidence that would grow within and make her the force of nature she is today. He saw her time in school and the friends she made and lost. The bullying she went through. The mockery and names. Even when she would show her skills, it seemed only her parents and one or two others saw her true worth. Her dropping out to move to Ponyville. Joining and rising to captain of the weather team. Making friends with each of her fellow Elements of Harmony. Coming to their realm. Becoming Phoenix's student and falling in love with him. It was no surprise to him that they went well together. She would make an excellent warrior. And a quick glance showed she would accomplish much.
Last was the book of the wolf. One that he had seen several times before and found it hard to look at each time. To keep himself from the temptation of breaking rules, he simply looked into what may be. After a few moments he waved his hand, closing the books. Closing his eyes, he waited for a moment as he listened to what the spirits thought. Nodding, he lifted his head and looked around and took a deep breath.
"The spirits have come to an agreement. They see much promise in this union. Know that dark times face all who have come to take witness of this day. But those will not come for this event. So hear me and look upon these promising lovers." The rabbit called. As the group opened their eyes, they cheered in joy at the news as the two old males sitting among the orbs of light simply smiled and nodded. "This concludes day one of the ceremony. Food and drinks are in the tent as are sleeping areas."
As Twilight and her friends gathered to talk and laugh, Phoenix and his crew stood by and watched with soft smiles before the wolf went over to the old wolf who stood up slowly.
The two looked over and gasped at the sight of the large gray wolf holding his ax. Scootaloo however turned her attention to the old fox who had yet to take his eyes off her. She jumped in shock at the sound of the ax hitting the ground and looked over at it then her friends as she noticed it had made a large indent on the ground. She glanced at the wolves as they glared at each other. Moments later the large wolf grabbed him in a tight hug.
Smiling, Scootaloo turned to the fox. "Hello granddaughter." He said in a soft gruff voice. Hearing this she jumped into his arms and hugged him as her friends stood by and watched them with heartfilled smiles.
The large wolf turned and knelt down in front of Rainbow as she realized just how big he was compared to his son… and her for that matter. She blinked and stood still as he placed a paw on her belly. "Hello little one." He said in a deep soft toan. "Yes… father has picked a worthy mate." He chuckled.
"What's he doing?" Rainbow asked.
"Dad always had a connection with the spirits of others." Phoenix shrugged.
Smiling Rainbow rolled her eyes as the large wolf sat back. "My son takes after his mother in looks and heart. But most everything else he got from me." Rainbow snickered for a moment before the wolf continued. "And I can tell you two have spent some wild times together." He laughed, making her blush.
"Stop teasing them, you old dog." The fox laughed with Scootaloo on his lap. "Be glad they'll be mothers and leave it at that." He turned to Scootaloo and adjusted her hair before placing a clip of a small dragon on her ear. "There. Now if you ever feel scared or alone. You can touch this and remember your clan and family is always with you."
Sighing, the wolf pulled a ring off the end of his ax and placed it around Rainbow's neck. "Our clan believes that… when we pass. Our memories and soul are saved in our jems." He explained as a finger rested on the jem that rested on the ring. "I know my mate would have wanted you to have hers."
Rainbow blinked in shock as she turned to Phoenix who smiled. "I don't remember what mother looked like. But I remember her telling me how important loyalty is."
The wolf nodded and turned to the fox. "What do you say we go get some drinks and celebrate this day?"
The fox set Scootaloo down and got up. "Only if the Rabbit joins us." He laughed. "You kids have fun. Tomorrow is a big day."
Back in the GBF base, several changes started happening as a dark ora seemed to come from the basement.
"Your men are slow." A crackly voice groaned.
"Sorry sir." The general whimpered as a whip struck his back. "I'm doing everything I can to speed up construction without raising suspension."
"Then use the prisoners." It ordered. "We need more… pets anyway. So let them choose."
"We… we're running out of prisoners."
A screen turned on next to him showing Kitty before flashing to an image of Phoenix. "There are always ways to get more… puppets."
The general's eyes widened as several of his former workers walked out of the darkness with blank expressions. "I… I understand sir… I'll see to it our army is ready for your plan…"
"Good… now go. It's dinner time." The voice said as one of the workers walked towards the voice with a smile as a single tear fell from her face.
Not taking any chances, the general grabbed his things and ran. As the door closed, he heard a scream followed by a juicy crunch. Taking a deep breath, he had one thought in his mind. "I must nor fail."
Twilight smiled as she watched her friends talking and laughing. It felt so long since they last had a chance to relax like this. And even though she knew it would be only for a short time. She knew they needed this. If for nothing else but to remind her that they'll always find a way to reunite.
"A splendid sight. Don't you think?" A sultry voice asked.
Turning, Twilight gasped at seeing Psy walking over with two glasses. She smiled while taking one of them. "Oh… yes… splendid."
Psy looked over at Fluttershy. "You fear for her." She pointed out. She noticed Fluttershy talking to Silver as Sweetie giggled as if she suspected something.
"I just don't want her to get hurt. She's delicate." Twilight replied softly.
"So was he…" Psy sighed as she looked off to the distance as if lost in a memory for a moment before shaking her head. "I take it you're the problem solver of your group?"
"If you ask Rainbow. The proper term is egghead." Twilight laughed.
After a moment Psy laughed with a nod. "Then why don't we put our eggs together and find a way to make this dream come true." She suggested, motioning to the others.
Twilight smiled and nodded in agreement before joining her in the tent.
"Oh my… you mean you can do that?" Fluttershy asked Silver with a blush.
"Would you like to experience it yourself?" He offered.
"It's ok Fluttershy. I don't mind sharing him with friends. We can talk later if you want." Sweetie giggled.
Smiling meekly, Fluttershy nodded and let him lift her into his arms. "I… I would love to try those… with you."
As the others settled down for dinner and sleep, Fluttershy joined Silver and Fluttershy for a dining experience to remember.
As the sun shined into the tent, Twilight and her friends slowly made their way outside after noticing their new friends were not in their beds. Several of the girls expected to find the same setup they saw when they first arrived. But we're quickly surprised to see a line of Tables where most of their friends sat to one side of the tent and an open field where Phoenix stood facing down a Fox with blood red fur.
As the girls took a seat at the table, Rainbow and Scootaloo sat close to their respective clan elders. "What's going on here?" Rainbow asked.
"An overdue rematch." The wolf laughed before passing her a bowl of mixed berries. "Don't worry. They're forbidden from lethal strikes during the trial of honor."
"I don't get it." Scootaloo sighed as her friends listened in to the conversation.
"Our tribes have a belief that for a man to show they are ready to be a husband. He must show his skills to his chosen mate, potential rivals and those who care for their partner." The old fox set a bag of gold on the table. "Those watching have come to make wagers on who'll win. Of course a potion of the wager goes to the couple. But it keeps things interesting and lets the mate know how many of the guests her lover has impressed and who had faith in him."
The old wolf tossed a bag of his own onto the table. "Normally a male rival would start the ceremony before other males seeking to fulfill their own right of mating may compete. It's actually rather fun for the different classes to see each other compet."
Twilight looked at the bags as Phoenix's other friends tossed smaller bags onto the table. "Who do you keep track of who the bets are for?"
Psy tapped her nose. "Sorry. It's easy to forget sometimes that you guys aren't from our universe. Seeing most of us have heightened senses, we mostly use our noses to tell the difference. But it's only fair to give you guys some visual aid." She laughed before tying a blue ribbon on one of the large bags and a red one on the other. "There, blue for Phoenix and red for the other guy." She explained moving the bags so they were in two groups.
Twilight nodded and noticed a bag tossed next to the red pile. Twilight blinked in shock at the ribbon and turned to see Rarity looking nervous as she watched the two guys as they placed their respective swords in the middle of the ring of weapons. "Consider it incentive, darling." Was all she said in response.
Sighing, Twilight set a bag next to the wolf's stack. "Then consider this, my faith in Rainbow and Scootaloo's choice."
As the bets were placed, the two males got in a ready position as they slowly circled each other. The moment the old wolf banged his ax on the ground, the two rushed to the nearest weapon that sat on the outer ring before charging at their opponent.
The group watched in wonder as weapons and styles they hadn't heard of was used… that is… other than Rainbow, who acted as commentary as she listed each style and weapon was used.
It wasn't hard for the girls to actually picture how or why she knew all this. In fact, Twilight found it a nice change of pace to be the one being taught by Rainbow.
"What do you think the likelihood is that they might accidentally deliver a lethal blow." Fluttershy asked nervously.
"Knowing those two, and how these matches are normally done? Rather high actually." The old wolf replied calmly as the two disarmed each other for the tenth time.
"What kind of history?" Applejack asked.
"Let's just say… you're not the only one who grew up without parents." The wolf sighed.
"And let me guess." Spike gulped. "The fox is the reason?" His response was a silent lower of the head. To his surprise, Rarity looked away.
"What's the matter?" Twilight asked.
"Now I understand." Rarity sighed. "They're holding back."
"What?!?" Everyone asked in shock as the two men stopped and looked at her then each other.
A few moments of silence later, the wolf and fox laughed. "You still couldn't do it after all these years?" The fox laughed.
"Look who's talking. What? Did getting released make you soft?" Phoenix laughed.
The fox shrugged and sheathed his sword. "Not quite." He glanced over at Rarity and smirked. "Let's just say. I finally understand what mother ment." Kneeling down he presented the sword. "My gift for your big day."
Phoenix took the sword and walked over to Rainbow as Silver got up cracking his knuckles. "My turn."
It was clear that the fox was going to need some attention later. And as the guys talked about their match, or when they weren't getting treated by their mates. The fox surprisingly put up a rather good fight.
Rainbow and Scootaloo blinked as several large bags were pushed towards them. "Seriously?" Rainbow asked.
"We all agreed that you two should get the majority of the money." Applejack shrugged before questions about kids were quickly brought up, causing not only Rainbow and Scootaloo to smile and put a hand on their belly, but Sweetie and Fluttershy as well.
Blinking, Apple Bloom looked between Walker and her sister before placing a hand on her belly in thought.
"I reckon there'll be a few more weddings by the time we get home." Applejack laughed as the group enjoyed the tests of strength and skill the guys put each other through.
