Quite some time passed during my pace around Ponyville. My hands found comfort in the pouch of my pockets as I slowly stroll the dirt path. Familiar faces that I've acquaint myself with during my visit passed by me during their daily tasks. They continued on with their business, greeted me with a warm smile but trotted on. I forged ahead until a very friendly face bounced to my direction…I greeted it with open arms.

"Hello!" Pinkie cheered as she leapt into my arms.

The pink mare almost knocked me over. I took a deep inhale and hugged her back, "Hey."

Pinkie took one quick glance at my face and saw an abomination to her own existence…A frown.

"Why so sad?" She asked with large pupils.

I gently lowered her to the ground and explained myself as we took a stroll, "Things aren't going so well, Pinkie. Last bonus didn't turn out so well, so I gotta come up with something else…As soon as they saw Cupcakes they we're all like 'you're evil!' or 'you reminded me of that horrible video!'"

"Aww!" The mare moaned.

"There have been 20,000 views on my fan fiction, and I want to give my readers something a little special to honor it."

"Oh! Oh! Like a thank you present!"

"Yes, my little Pinkie; that is the correct term."

We continued strolling down the path, aimlessly wondering around town. I placed my finger on my chin, my conscious dwelling within my own mind as it scurried around my head for anything to use.

"My inspiration," I softly called, "Where art thou?"

I briefly looked up and saw Fluttershy about to pass me. Before she could pass me, I picked her up and embraced her. Her body became as stiff as a board.

"Um…" She squeaked; it's too much for a man to bear to hear her squeak, "W-what are you doing?"

"Shhhhhhh…" I whispered while caressing her mane, "I'm thinking."

Her feeble body was shaking in fright, but when something this adorable happens to be walking pass you…How could you not resist?

With the yellow mare trembling against my body, her head resting over my shoulder; we continued on the path. My conscious was running in circles all over my head, gears cranked up to full power as it desperately attempts to generate something I can use. I rest my head against Fluttershy's upper back, and a dreamy exhale slipped through my lips.

So…Soft!

"I think you need to put Fluttershy down." Pinkie suggested, "She gets enough hugs from other ponies anyways."

"Request denied." I plainly answered her, holding the adorable mare closer.

Pinkie quickly cast an eye behind my back and saw Fluttershy's face blushing pink like neon.

Idea…I ask again. Where are you? Why do you persist to run from me? Why can't I use you for the sake of entertainment?

Then…At that moment, while I felt Fluttershy putting up a mild fight, it hit me.

"What month is this?" I quickly asked the pink mare.

"The sixth month of the seventh day of the eleventh hour in the morning!" She cheerfully answered, "Why do you ask?"

I froze, my mouth gapping open with eyes sparking in the sun light. Without warning, I carelessly dropped the yellow mare and ran in the opposite direction. I kept running until I found the library; this was so perfect! Why didn't I think of this before?

I banged on the door until it swung open. A baby dragon greeted me, but I trampled him over and franticly scanned the library room. I found Twilight sitting on the couch reading a book; she looked up and her eyes widen.

"Can I help you with something?" She politely asked, noticing the urgent look on my face.

"Twilight!" I almost shouted while slipping a little piece of paper out of my pocket, "Can you use your magic to perform this spell?"

For a tired and exhausted Snips, it's not easy attending school; spending merciless hours of solving addition, spelling simple words, coloring a picture book, and the most punishing activity, napping. His bed was waiting for him in his room, sprawled out and waiting for his flabby body to cushion itself against the soft surface. He threw himself on the bed, his four legs spread out and embracing the cushions underneath him. His eyes became heavy after several minutes, and was just about to sleep until his door creaked open.

"There you are, buddy!" Snails cheered in his deep, horse tone, "I've been looking all over for ya! We have a peeping raid prepared and you're just going to nap?"

Snips groaned and rolled over to his side, facing away from him, "I'm tired; get someone else."

"Uh…There's no one else to get," He honestly stated, "You're the only friend I have."

"What about Spike?"

He paused, the little hamster inside of his head running at full sprint as he processed the information, "I don't think he would like it too much when one of the mares we'll be peeping is Twilight."

"…That is bad." Snips snorted, "You're just going to have to do it alone."

"Common, it's not the same without you." Snails pleaded, now about to entice him with a cocked eye brow, "Our teacher will be on the list."

Well…He did like his teacher. Snails argument was enough to persuade him, "Wait for me outside; I'll get my stick ready."

The fowl unicorn happily nodded and trotted outside. With a loud groan and a quite burp, he rolled himself off the bed and landed on his four hooves. He trotted over to the corner of his room, where his handy wooden stick awaited him. He's been proud of that stick since he found it at the park. It was long, but light and balanced enough to hold the very end of it without fumbling. There was also a little branch sticking out from the end to catch a mare's tail and lift it without it slipping. Sure, it was a sick game only a fowl will play, but heck; it's the only kind of action he'll get before he becomes a stallion himself…If he ever does find a mate.

He grabbed the trusty stick in his mouth until his eye wondered to the nearby calendar. It only took him a second to rush to the calendar in question and study it more closely, glancing the month and the dates underneath it.

A terrifying realization hit him like a ton of bricks.

He dropped the stick and rushed outside, his legs stumbling and his lungs struggling for breath as he slammed the door open to the outside.

"There you are…Where's your stick?" Snails asked.

Snips panted a couple of breaths and grabbed hold of his friend with his front hooves, his body trembling out of fear.

"We got a problem!" He screamed, "We got a BIG problem!"

"Ah gonna tell you somethin'" McIntosh grumbled while he worked alone side with the red echidna, bucking a tree, "I've been workin' on this here farm for ma whole life, and found a whole lotta things wrong with the world."

"I've been here for a while and I found a lot of things strange." Knuckles agreed while punching a tree, knocking most of the apples off of it. It's terrible, no matter how much he practiced, he could never knock all of the apples out of a tree, "But I'm finding this to be paradise. Hardly any crime, a firm government, a stable economy, people back in my world would kill to live in a place like this…You should be thankful."

"Ah know, ah thank Celestia evry day that we have food put on the table, but I see things that just ain't right…Like how butter is made."

Knuckles raised an eyebrow at him.

"You take a big stick and ya ram it down some keg like you tryin to murder somepony. And the sound sounds it makes, it's downright suggestive!'

"Uh, Mac…I'm really not following you-"

"(sigh), mah sister loves getting on that there keg, and ah mean LOVE it! She'll be buckin' trees on a regular basis, but when it's time to make butter, that mare is gone to that keg, buddy! When she makes butter, she uses ALL of her hooves!"

"How's making butter suggestive?" Knuckles asked in confusion, "I mean it's the only way to make it if you don't have machines-."

"And mah cousins give mah sister the strangest look when she pumps that keg. They can sit there for hours nonstop just a starin' at her…And you may think ahm crazy, but sometimes I can see drool slidin' out of them mouths."

"…You know, I think that's just you."

"BIG MAC!" A voice echoed.

The two workers cast their eyes beyond the horizon and saw two young fowls running to their direction. The skidded to a halt, standing before the stallion with sweat pouring from their heads.

"Can ah help you boys?" McIntosh asked with a raised eye brow, "You'd looked more freaked out than a leg caught in a grinding machine."

They panted for several seconds before one of them tried to answer.

"Mac…"Snips panted for a couple of more seconds before continuing, "We have a situation."

"Situation?" Mac asked.

Snips and Snails quickly checked their surroundings, glancing at ever tree and every shrub before stepping a little closer to the stallion. They leaned forward.

"…The days are coming." They whispered.

McIntosh's eyes shot wide open, pupils shrinking to the sides of peas.

"You'd better not be pulling mah leg!" He growled, his voice shaking, "I'll buck you two to tha next week!"

The two frantically shook their heads.

Knuckles heard the conversation, curious of what was going on. If it's something to unnerve big Mac, then it's something serious.

"What's going on?" He asked.

The three ponies gave him a very bewildered glair.

"You mean you don't know what time of the year this is!?" Snips shouted at him, "It's the heating season!"

"…I don't understand."

McIntosh casually trottled to him, giving the Knuckles a very stern glair.

"The heating season is tha time where mares go into heat, a special period in their lives once every year where they become ecstatic."

"Every mare in Equestia literary lose their minds and hunt down any potential mate." Snails filled in, "And I mean ANYTHING! If it's male, they will hump it!"

Knuckles almost chuckled, "Well that doesn't sound too bad; humorous if you ask me."

"Nononononono, you don't understand!" Snips shouted at him while staring at him, "You don't want to become a mate. Once a mare grabs hold of you, you will become a prisoner of passion and sham-"

Knuckles began laughing out loud; tears threatening to jerk out of his eyes. He continued laughing until Mac gently tapped his shoulder.

"I'd like to show your somethin'." The stallion spoke in a very serious tone, "Hold out yer hand."

Knuckles was still chuckling but did as requested. Mac gave him an object, and the red echidna examined it.

It was a pen.

"Imagin' for one second what a sick mare might do with that pen."

Mac studied Knuckles while he was studying it. Slowly, his chuckles died to nothing…Then his eyes widen into terror.

"Now imagin ah stallion going through that several times over…With several different unicorns… Nonstop."

Knuckles began trembling, doubting what he was hearing, "You can't be serious."

"Ahm a serious as I can get." Mac simply answered, "Once a mare in heat grabs a stallion, she will mate nonstop with him until the heating season is over."

"…How long does it go?"

" Five days, maybe even a week."

Knuckles dropped the pin as it hit the ground with a soft thud. He became quiet; they couldn't even hear him breathing.

"Luckily fer all of us," Mac addressed, "I'd built a bunker for this kind of occasion with enough food to last us for months," He cast a gaze over the two fowls, "How much time do we have here?"

"I don't know." Snails answered hyperventilating, "It's the middle of June; we don't have any time of all!"

"O.K. Let's not panic here!" Mac shouted, taking in deep breaths, "You two boys gather as much stallions as you can and meet me back here. Knuckles, you do the same and-"

"Wait a minute!" Knuckles shouted, scared out of his wits, "How come the mayor or the princesses didn't make any kind of announcement?"

"They're mares!" Snips answered, "Of course they're not going to announce anything!"

---

Sonic and Tails were simply enjoying a peaceful walk through the park, chatting and enjoying each other's company, just like old times back home. The sun was beginning to set, casting a soft orange glow over the landscape; they had to stop to take in the beautiful setting.

"Sonic! Tails!"

They turned around and saw Knuckles running towards them, his eyes widen and pupils shrunken to the sides of peas.

"Way to kill the mood!" Sonic scorned.

"Listen!" Knuckles shouted at him, his body trembling, "We need to talk! We need to seriously talk! I don't know how much time we have, or if we have any kind of time at all, but we-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa; slow down." Sonic addressed him, motioning his hand, "What's going on?"

"Heating season, stupid!" Knuckles shouted at his face, "It's here!"

Sonic was motioning for his red friend to calm down; not worried about a thing, but Tails took a couple of steps back, surprised of this information.

"We're gathering as much ponies as we can," Knuckles continued jabbering, "And if your care about your own safety, you will-"

"Listen, Knuckles. I don't know what to be panicked about." Sonic addressed him.

"The heating season is a phase during a mare's hormones become very acute." Tails explained, "It makes them uh…Hyper affectionate."

Sonic stared at his best friend for a couple of seconds, then began chuckling.

"Sonic, this is serious!" Knuckles shouted at him, his legs trembling, "It's only a matter of time before-"

"Bwahahahaha!" The hedgehog doubled back laughing, resting his hand on Tails' shoulder to keep himself up, "You guys are really something, you know that?"

He kept laughing until Knuckles slapped a pen in his hand. Sonic studied it for several seconds, his laughter slowly dying away until it became nervous chuckles…Then a face of terror.

Then he began laughing again.

"Are you that retarded!?" Knuckles screamed at him, "That's what going to happen if a unicorn were to grab a hold of you."

Sonic took a couple of seconds to calm himself, then casually began walking to his panicked friend; patting him on the back, "Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles. Did you forget who we are?"

Knuckles gave him a blank stare.

"The three fastest creatures on this planet! We can easily out run any sex crazed mare."

Tails and Knuckles stared at him for a second, processing the information.

"…I-I guess you got a point." Tails commented, chuckling out of embarrassment, "I didn't take that into consideration."

Knuckles settled down, but still serious, "What about Rainbow…Or Pinkie, especially Pinkie!"

"We'll be long gone before any of them will know we're here." Sonic assured them, "We'll run miles away from civilization and hunker down somewhere to wait for the heat to pass…How you think I managed to escape from Amy when she's in heat?"

…He did have a point.

"Now common," He began walking backwards, motioning his friends to come, "Follow me…Escape from the city."

They slowly approached him, then took off in a full sprint after him as he lead them through town. The wind rushed by them as they ran pass several shops and a blistering speed.

Until a magical pulse ruptured through their bodies.

Sonic tripped and slid across the ground for a couple of feet, shortly coming to a sudden stop. He stood back up with his face covered in dirt.

"(cough, cough) that was weird." Sonic mumbled, "Everybody else alright?"

He checked behind and saw the two of his friends face planted on the dirt. It only took them a second to regain their poster.

"What was that?" Knuckles asked, "I felt something rush through me."

"I-I don't know." Tails answered, checking over his own body, "It felt like a pulse."

They stood around for a second and faced ahead, ready to resume their run. Sonic took in a deep breath and sprinted; only to trip over again. He stood back up and tried sprinting again. He didn't trip, but he didn't see any blur on his sides like he usually can.

"W-what's going on?" He asked, his voice beginning to shake, "I can't sprint!"

He ran back to his friends, trying to zip like he usually can. He only achieved a face implant on the ground.

"I can't spin my tails!" Tails shouted, trying to lift off the ground, but only strained himself.

Knuckles tried to sprint to his blue friend, but only achieved a normal-human speed.

"W…What is this, Sonic!?" Knuckles shouted at him with a trembling voice, "We, we can't run fast!"

"I'm asking myself the same question!" Sonic shouted back, "That pulse did something to us."

Knuckles gave him a blank stare, slowly stepping back. His eyes were widen, pupils shrunken to the sides of peas. He checked his surroundings, only to be met by a completely deserted street.

"I…I DON'T WANNA BE RAPED!"

"Get a hold of yourself!" Sonic shouted at him, grabbing a hold of him and slapping him across the face, "We got to get to Twilight's and see if she can lift this curse off of us."

"B-b-but Sonic!" Tails retaliated, his voice trailing off, "The heat!"

"Maybe there's still time!" Sonic answered him, "I haven't seen any mares around here; if we hurry we can beat it to her!"

---

They ran as fast as they could to the library; at a natural speed unfortunately. It was a dark night, the streets were deserted, empty; not a single pony could be seen for miles around the city. It was quite, only the sound of a gentle wind accompanied the three heroes. They stopped when they reached the entrance of the library.

"It seems quite." Tails quietly commented, observing the tree like house.

"I…I don't know anymore." Knuckles shivered, throwing his head in all directions for any signs of movement "Th-the silence is deafening."

"Luck is on our side, boys." Sonic called to them, "We'll have this spell off of us and we'll be out of here in no time."

They were approaching the library until the door suddenly swung open with a bang. Knuckles jumped ten feet in the air and almost ran off if Sonic didn't catch him. They saw Spike running out of that door, flailing his arms and screaming to the top of his lungs.

"Prepareyouranus! Prepareyouranus! PREPAREYOURANUS! PREPAREYOURAAAANUUUUS!"

Spike ran pass them, running straight towards Sweet Apple Acres. A lavender unicorn came trotting out of the darkness, a maniac grin creased across her lips. She was panting, her grin widening as she laid eyes on the three heroes. Her tail shot straight in the air.

"Oooohohohoh, this is exciting!" She shouted, "Four for one!"

"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Knuckles shrilled, shooting around and running as fast as his legs could carry him.

Sonic and Tails stood lifeless for three seconds while the mare slowly began to approach them. After a spark clicked in their heads they took off after the screaming echidna.

The four studs were running through Ponyville as fast as they could while a sex crazed unicorn chased relentlessly after them.

"AAAHHHHH!" Knuckles shouted from the top of his lungs, in fact he was screaming like a siren since the entire chase, "HELP ME MERCIFUL GOD!"

"Stop screaming, you red buffoon!" Spike scorned him, his plopped belly jiggling to the sides, "You'll alert the whole freakin' town!"

Then all of a sudden, they heard a whole series of gallops behind them. Sonic felt a whole new level of fear as he dared himself to check behind…It wasn't just Twilight chasing them anymore, there were dozens upon dozens of heating mares hauling butt after them, wolf whistling and screaming in pure excitement.

"We got to get the heck out of here!" Sonic shouted to them, "Anyone has any ideas!"

"AAAHHHHHH!" Was Knuckles only response as he continued to frail his arms.

"McIntosh has a shelter near the barn!" Spike answered him, "If we can get there, we can hunker down until the heat passes."

"Care to explain why we suddenly lost our powers just moments ago!?" Sonic asked him as kindly as he could.

"I-I don't know!" Spike answered, "All I can recall is this strange creature barging in our library and begged Twilight to perform a certain spell!"

Suddenly a stallion ran across them in a full sprint with a unicorn hot on his tail. He tripped and the mare mounted right on top of him.

"I beg you, have mercy!" He shouted, "…No! No! Not the horn! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

The four runners heard the stallion's echo for several minutes during their run before it became out of hearing distance. The four runners sighed in relief when they saw Sweet Apple Acres ahead.

---

"Wha…What da buck is this!"

McIntosh cussed out loud as he kicked the metal door in front of him, which was unfortunately for all of them locked, "Ah had this here unlocked!"

They were three other stallions with them. Davenport, who runs a small business, what is known as Quills and Sofas. There was also a visitor from Canterlot who happened to be warned by the two fowls; a highly respected noble pony known as Fancypants. And one very lucky Wonderbolt who managed to escape from his team's clutches; Soarin.

His poor brothers didn't stand the slightest chance as soon as the heat took over.

"This…This is premeditated." Snips whimpered, "Y-your sister…She did this."

"Now mah sister would never commit such an act!" Mac shot back.

"And you would be right." I whispered while observing them from a distance, jogging the key in my hand with a big grin on my face. I walked away before anyone could see me, snickering under my breath.

"Well, we gotta do something!" Snails shouted, "They'll get us for sure out here!"

Suddenly, they heard the cries of a thousand mares coming from Ponyville. The group shuddered when their cries reached their ears. It sounded excited, desperate…Hungry.

"Now, I say." Fancypants commented, "If I didn't know any better, I would say that they should be dangerously close."

They saw four creatures running towards them; a baby dragon and three others. The runners checked behind them and stopped to catch their breaths when their pursuers were gone; they jogged the rest of the way.

"Hey Sonic!" Soarin greeted him, trotting to him and bumped his hoof to his hand, "How you been?"

"Not good," The hedgehog greeted back, bending over and panting, "The worst day I had in this peaceful world."

"Oh, common; it's not that bad." The pegasus playfully argued, "Nothing's perfect."

Spike walked over to the cell, trying to open it but no avale.

"Why is the bunker locked?" He asked out loud.

"That ahm trying to solve mahself." McIntosh answered, "It was unlocked when ah last remembered."

Spike began clawing against the metal surface, but whatever metal McIntosh used had to be strong to withstand the dragon's claws.

"It won't budge." He snorted.

Tails stepped closer and inspect it.

"Titanium steel," He mumbled, "You must have taken a lot of precautions for this day, Big Mac."

"That ah do." He plainly answered

Knuckles happened to overhear their conversation. Desperate and scared, he walked over and faced the steel trap; drawing his fists back. Tails just managed to see him.

"Knuckles, wait!"

*CRACK!*

"…OOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!"

The sound of popped muscles echoed through the apple trees. His face changed to fear to sudden pain.

"We lost our powers, remember?" Tails reminded him.

He only answered him by low whimpers.

Davenport trottled a little ways from the group, staring into the direction where Sonic and other last ran from. He can hear the hoots and hollers of crazed mares in the city, as well as a blend of the screams of unfortunate stallions caught in their grasps.

"We need to get out of here before they find us." He said to the group, "Any ideas?"

"Well, escaping to another town is out of the question; we'll run into the same problem." Soarin answered, "We could try to find a cave nearby. But without food and water, we won't last for long."

"Then that leaves us no choice but to head back." Tails concluded, glazing at the haunted town.

"Are you nuts!?" Snails shouted, "You want us to go back!?"

Sonic was on the side lines, listening in and thinking what else they could do. Absolutely nothing came to mi-

"I FOUND A STALLION!" A feminine voice shrilled.

Every one shot around and saw a very exited earth pony stalking towards them, with a tong hanging out and her tail high in the air. A foul musky stench filling the group's nostrils; making them gagged.

She charged head on, the boys turned tails and immediately started running. Suddenly they heard a yelp and the sound of a body hitting the floor. Fancypants looked back and found Davenport's face planted on the ground, the mare was already mounting him.

"Davenport! Dear Sir!" Fancypants shouted.

The pony began galloping back to his aid until Soarin grabbed his tail by the teeth.

"It's too late for him!" The pegasus shouted, "He's gone!"

When they saw dozens of other mares galloping towards them, they instantly took off back to Ponyville. Fancypants heard the horrific screams of the business pony; he looked back and saw five other mares on top of him.

Three days later

It was hot inside that tree house, very hot; even in the middle of the night it proved itself to be a microwave if there were no air ventilating inside. All the windows were covered with boards, save for one that was used for observing on the second floor. Sonic, who was lying on Twilight's bed, carefully creaked the window open to see the street below him. It was deserted, no signs of life anywhere; any unfortunate male pony that was caught was already dragged away to a disclosed location, where their screams for help will never be heard.

Relieved that nothing was seen, he sat up from the bed and made his way down stairs. For the past days, it was the usual. Fancypants giving Tails company with a little talk; Soarin reading the countless of book crammed against the shelves; Knuckles hunched over by a corner rocking back and forth, mumbling something under his breath.

Spike tried to give him a little comfort, bless his heart.

McIntosh lying down staring at the ceiling with a wheat sticking out of his mouth, and Snips and Snails helped themselves to a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

"See anything outside?" Soarin asked him, taking his eyes off the book.

"It's a ghost town out there," Sonic sighed, "I haven't seen a single pony since we've huddled up in here."

The pegasus nodded and continued reading. Tails asked Fancypants about the life in Canterlot, what it's like to be living in a life of wealth and luxury; this topic grabbed Soarin's attention as well as McIntosh's.

"Well," The white coated stallion began, "As you gentle creatures and ponies expect, it's a good life to say the least; your life laid out before you and all the worries as a common pony may face is not present."

Tails listened to his tone, it almost sounded regretful.

"That in itself may sound like something a pony may dream for, but over the years living the capital of Equestia, it begins to feel uncomfortable. Sorry, uncomfortable is not the word, but…"

"Like you've experience everything and life itself lost its value." Sonic filled in.

"That's a fine way to put it," Fancypants commented to him, staring at the floor, "but I never regretted living in the spot light; it's where I belong, and nobles living over there look up to me. Even though their hearts has been sold to the highest bitter, I still try to lead by example."

They stood quite for a few seconds, accompanied by the noise of smacking by Snips and Snails as they help themselves to another sandwich.

"Well, mister," McIntosh butted in, "ya should come down a visit us sometimes. It's not 'sophisticated', but we fix some of tha best apple pies of all Equestia."

"Why thank you kindly for your hospitality, dear sir." Fancypants thank him, "I'll be sure to come down and visit."

Snips and Snails helped themselves to another sandwich.

"Who's hungry?" Tails asked out loud.

"I am." Soarin answered.

"I guess a bite won't hurt." Fancypants answered as well, standing from his seat.

Tails jumped up and walked to the kitchen, which was barely lit thanks to the boarded windows. When he opened the fridge, his mouth gapped open in shock.

"We're out of food!" He shouted.

Sonic, Tails, Soarin, Fancypants, and McIntosh rushed over to see for themselves. The jugs were empty; everything edible in the fridge was gone.

"Th-that was supposed to last us for a week!" Sonic stated.

McIntosh trotted over and took one long stare at the empty fridge. His eyes narrowed as he stomped his hoof to the floor, turning around and galloped to the living room.

"Snips and Snails!" He shouted.

He found the two fowls freezing when they saw him, just about to take the last bites out of the sandwiches.

"Ya two nincompoops ate all of our food!"

The sandwich they were holding slowly slid off their hooves then plopped to the floor.

"Uh…Sorry?"

"Sorry? Is that all ya can say about this act, is that you're sorry!?"

The rest of the company arrived in the living room just in time to retrain the stallion from bucking the two fowls.

"This…IS THE END!" Knuckles shouted on the sidelines, rocking back and forth a little harder as his voice echoed through the house, "WE'RE GOING TO STARVE IN HERE!"

"Stop screaming!" Sonic shouted at him, "A mare could be walking by here!"

"I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!" Knuckles screamed, burying his head in his ankles, "JUST LET THEM COME! WE CAN ONLY PRELONG THE INEVITABLE!"

Spike grabbed the top of his head and yanked it up, slapping him hard against his cheeks. Knuckles stared blankly at nothing for several long seconds. The group watched as he slowly stood up, taking in deep breaths to settle himself down.

"I-I-I-I-I'm sorry," He mumbled to them, "I-I'm not myself today, just…Lost my cool was all."

He paced himself around the table, still breathing deeply, "Now…One of us has to go out there."

They stared at each other for a second, nervously waiting for someone to take the call.

"Not it!"

"Not it!" Snips and Snails shouted.

The group gave them a death glare so intense that they felt it scratching at their subconscious. They slowly cowered away from them with sheepish smiles.

"You two boys got us into this mess," McIntosh plainly stated.

"We're not going out there." Snips said shaking.

"Yea you are," McIntosh spat, "You two are gonna take responsibility."

"We're taking no responsibility!" Snails shouted, "We're too young to be taking responsibility!"

"I'm gonna tell you boys somethin!" McIntosh combated, "Adult hood is all about taking responsibility. You two are gonna go out there, and take it like a stallion!"

"We don't want to lose our virginity!"

"NEITHER DO AH!"

Silence filled the room as every single individual stared at him with gaping mouths. The farm pony just froze in place as the sudden awkwardness slowly sunk in.

"…Let me check upstairs before we settle on anything." Sonic spoke to break the tension.

The hedgehog walked upstairs and into Twilight's bed room. He climbed on the bed and opened the window.

Two huge blue eyes stared dead at him with a maniac smile on the pink pony's face.

Sonic slammed the window closed and braced his back against it, his heart about to leap out of his chest.

"Guys!" He screamed, "It's-"

*Crack!*

A pink hoof went straight through the wooden cabinet and wrapped itself around Sonic, pulling him in against the window.

"HEEELLLP!"

Another pink hoof pierced though the cabinet, wrapping itself around the hedgehog. The cabinet gave way and his body went through the window; he managed to grab the bottom seal before he was pulled away completely. The group rushed upstairs as fast as they could and found him hanging on for dear life as Pinkie frantically pulled from behind.

"Mine!" She screamed, "You're mine!"

Tails ran over and grabbed Sonic's hands, pulling with all of his might to try to save his friend. The other's joined in the struggle (except for Knuckles who squealed like a sissy and ran down stairs). It took the whole group to finally pull the hedgehog in.

"Now I will say my dear," Fancypants shouted trotting to the window, "Your attitude is most improper!"

He turned around and bucked her square in the face, sending the pink pony bouncing down on the ground. Fancypants also levitated the bed and braced it against a wall, casting a spell to glue it.

"They're in the tree house!" Pinkie shouted.

The group panicked and hightailed it back downstairs. They were carrying, bucking, and levitating anything heavy against the door. In almost a second, the door began bulging, knocking the objects a little out of place. The group quickly placed them back and braced themselves against the objects. The door continued to bulge, harder and harder by each knock, but the boys firmly held their ground.

"You think this will hold them off?" Tails asked out loud, straining himself against a table.

"Feels like it's holding!" Soarin answered, "If we're lucky, they'll search somewhere else!"

The bombardment continued for several long minutes, the mares weren't giving that door an inch of slack.

"You know, they could use magic to get through this door." Snails said.

The hammering instantly stopped…Every guy in the room gave him a death glare so intense that it made his heart skip. Complete silence smothered the air.

"…Ah hate you." McIntosh whispered.

Almost immediately the door exploded outward; hurling every object and creature throughout the library. The boys quickly recovered and found dozens of panting mares outside the door, staring at them with hungry eyes.

"AAAAAHHHHH!" Knuckles squealed running upstairs.

It didn't even take a second for the rest of the prey to start running up after him. The mares closely followed pursuit as Knuckles threw the door open. He didn't even care to try to take the boards off, he jumped through it! Time slowed to a crawl as his body soar through the air, pieces of board sailing with him.

He plummeted straight down just seconds after taking off.

Sonic joined him and jumped through the window; managed to land smoothly but still toppled a little bit. Fancypants was next; he never jumped out of a building before so his landed on his side. Soarin simply flew with Spike on his back and landed by them. McIntosh was the last to jump, he leapt through the window and dived hooves first. Tails was the last to jump, he leapt through the window and dived feet first to the ground.

"Let's get out of here!" Tails cried.

"Wait!" Soarin shouted, "Where's Snips and Snails?"

"NNOOOOOOOOOOO!"

They looked up and saw the two fowls holding on for dear life to the window. Two pink hooves shot around them and pull him inward. They disappeared into the second floor room.

"I can't take this anymore!" Knuckles shouted, running towards the Everfree Forest, "I WANNA GET OUT OF HERE!"

"Knuckles, wait!" Sonic called.

He didn't listen to any thing, he ran with flailing arms; squealing like a little girl as he disappeared out of sight. Several mares took off after the red echidna as the remaining group ran through the streets.

---

Sonic, Tails, McIntosh, Soarin, Fancypants, and Spike ran down the darken street as fast as they could. They looked behind and saw screaming mares hot on their tail. During their aimless run, they passed by the Boutique; the door suddenly flew open and a white mare charged through the door with ribbons floating around her. The ribbons shot out, wrapping themselves around McIntosh and pulled him inwards.

"My darling!" She shouted, sounding a bit seductive, "You're going to look dashing in leather!"

The group tried to grab onto him, but was forced to run down the street when they saw dozens of mares closing in. Mac clung his hooves on the ground in futile effort to save himself as he crept closer and closer to the door.

"I DON'T WANNA MAKE BUTTER!" He screamed.

While the boys were running, spike looked back and saw his dear Rarity standing at the door.

"…This is my chance." He mumbled.

"What?" Soarin spat.

Spike suddenly jumped of the Wonderbolt and hightailed it to the Boutique.

"Are you crazy!" Soarin shouted.

He didn't have a chance to go after him when the perusing mares were getting dangerously close to them. While the studs were running, they looked back and saw Spike running to the door with two mares chasing after him. Luckily for the purple dragon, a ribbon snared around his leg and hauled him in. The two chasers as well as wondering heated mares barged through the door after him. The door magically slammed shut.

---

Next morning

"I think we lost them." Sonic panted, pressing his back against a wall while peaking his head over the corner.

A whole group of screaming mares were running down the Ponyville street, frantically searching for the four studs in the neighborhood. The remaining group were hiding in a dark ally, covered by two building on both sides. Confident that they were gone, he regrouped with his remaining party; Tails, Soarin, and Fancypants. They kept their voices low.

"Soarin," Sonic whispered, "There's one thing I don't get."

"Hit me." Soarin dared.

"If you have wings, how come you're not flying out of here?"

"…Rainbow." He simply answered.

Suddenly, they heard a terrified scream above them. They looked up and saw a male pegasus flapping his wings like a maniac. He had one second to look behind before a rainbow trail collide with him. The pegasus fell out of site, then the group heard a loud thud from the other side of the building. After a couple of seconds, they heard a scream for mercy.

"I've learned that lesson last year," Soarin continued, "No pegasus can out fly Rainbow."

"…That sucks." Tails commented.

Fancypants stayed quite while the other three whispered to one another, planning on escaping to another house and hunkering down. He took in a deep breath, staring onto the distance of the street.

"What's wrong?" Tails asked him, just noticing him.

"Nothing's wrong, my dear friend." He answered, "I'm just thinking of Canterlot."

"Canterlot?"

"Or more specifically, Princess Celestia and Luna."

Soarin and Sonic over heard him and walked over to join the conversation.

"They get heated too?" Sonic asked.

"Oh; dear heavens, yes!" Fancypants answered in a loud whisper, "Even the princesses lose their minds during the heat."

---

"THE PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT DEMANDS SATISFACTION!"

A group of guards had their backs against the wall as chains and ropes began to levitate by her. Her eyes were blazing white, horn glowing and shimmering with power.

"This is not in our job description!"

---

"…Poor guards." Tails whispered, looking beyond the street with the white stallion.

"I say…I pity them completely." Fancypants agreed.

Sonic jogged back to the corner of the building, checking both ends of the streets for any movement. With nothing to be seen, he jogged back to his remaining three friends.

"It's clear." Sonic whispered to them, "If we want to make another run, it needs to be now."

"Any ideas where to hunker down next?" Soarin asked.

"…I was thinking of the Quills and Sofas store," Sonic answered, "But I don't know if it has any food or fresh water."

"May I suggest Sugar Cube Corner?" Fancypants politely spoke, "Food is plenti -"

"NO!" Sonic harshly whispered to him, "We are not going to Sugar Cube Corner, ANYWHERE but Sugar Cube Corner!"

"Either that or stay out here," Soarin spoke, "Your choice."

Sonic gave out a long sigh before nodding his head in agreement. As much he hated the fact that it'll remind him of the pink mare, he'd rather have nightmares than be in one.

Sonic lead the way and noted his friends to follow him. Approaching the side of the building, Sonic peak his head around the corner. The bakery was dead ahead, just three blocks away from where they were at. He quickly turned his head to the other direction, and froze when he saw a mare scanning the allies. He quickly retreated before she spot him, jogging back to his friends.

"It's too risky taking the main street," He whispered, "We have to stick to the allies if we're going to get inside the bakery."

The nodded in agreement and closely followed Sonic as he lead the way through the darken allies. It was weird, even in the middle of the day the allies were darkened by the buildings around them, but this was a good thing; more cover the better.

Sonic peak his head around another building to see three more mares scanning the streets. Sweat dripped from his head, as well as his friends. Nothing could be heard but the sound of footsteps and trotting. The group nervously passed one opening, just for a few seconds exposing themselves outside as they took cover behind another building. Sonic peak his head around another building, this time spotting four more mares searching the streets. Pheromones stuffed his nostrils, making him gag from the stench. They quietly and swiftly passed the gap, only exposing themselves for a second before disappearing behind another building. It may be just a couple of blocks, but it felt like miles with the rate they were going. Sonic peak his head around another building. Six more mares were spotted. He quickly retreated and regrouped with his comrades.

"I think they know we're out here." Sonic whispered as low as they could, "The streets are covered with mares."

"You don't say." Fancypants whispered, "They always hunt in packs. If one male is caught, they share the kill…Sort of speak."

"Least we're close to the bakery." Tails whispered, "Just two more openings."

Soarin looked dead ahead, seeing the candy covered building right in front of them. He also saw two mares searching around the building.

"There's no way we can reach the front door without being spotted." Soarin whispered to them.

"Then it's all or nothing." Sonic stated in a low voice, "Once we pass the last clearing, we run like crazy to the front door."

"Are you sure, dear Sonic?" Fancypants asked, "It seems a bit…Stupid."

"…This is stupid." He whispered staring ahead.

"Well played."

Sonic and the others ran through one last clearing. Now; all that stood between them and safety was a block long sprint and seven or more scavenging mares.

"Alright," Sonic whispered, "All we're going to do is run straight. No matter what happens, do not stop for any-"

"Something's got me!"

Sonic shot around and saw Fancypants hanging on to the side of a building while being pulled by a rope lassod around his leg.

"I got me a bigin'!" Applejack cried from the street.

Soarin ran to Fancypants's side and immediately grabbed his front hooves; heaving and pulling as Tails went to work on the rope. A sudden scream of mares screeched through the town. They have been spotted!

"To the bakery!" Sonic screamed.

Fancypants managed to loosen his leg from the rope and ran after him, with Tails and Soarin right on his Tail. Mares were squealing in delight; chasing after them, their bodies more than ready to dine on their innocence. The pursuing mares were slowly gaining, and the door was still a block away.

"We're not gonna make it!" Tails shouted.

"Just keep running!" Sonic shouted back.

The studs ran as fast as their legs and hooves can carry them. The mares were closing in, but the door was approaching. They ran and ran, their throats on fire from exhaustion.

Until a very exited Pinkie Pie jumped in front of the door.

In a split second decision. The group split, running to different directions...With a gleam in his eye, Sonic ran head on to the pink pony.

Time itself seemed to slow to a crawl. Before she could grab him, Sonic swung his hand in front of him; grabbing her head and stomped his feet on the ground, using his other hand to support himself on top of her as he jumped. He somersaulted over her, his shoe hitting the floor as he land. With the pink menace behind him, he ran upstairs and bolted straight for the bedroom. When he was through the doorway, he glanced behind and saw Pinkie bouncing after him; her tongue rolling out and her tail stuck straight in the air. Just before she could get to him, Sonic slammed the door on her…He locked the door, locked the latch, embraced the toy box against it, jammed little Gummy between the cracks, and just to be sure, slammed a couple of nails between the bottom door and the wooden floor.

Exhausted, his back slid against the propped bed, panting and sweating as he tried to catch his breath. He sat there for several long minutes, letting his chest rise and descend.

"I made it." He huffed; then began to chuckle. He couldn't believe it, he actually escaped from Pinkie, "I flippin' made it."

He let his body slump, dwelling his lucky stars that he made it to safety. He didn't know what will happen to the others, but there's nothing he can do at this point; they're on their own.

For a second, he opened his eyes to observe the room…It was typical, pink room, pink walls, balloons, pink T.V.

Wait, what's a Television set do-…You know what, forget it! Sonic sees a Television screen, and by Celestia he's going to enjoy his stay!

Standing up and walking, he slumped over the bed; grabbing the pink remote beside and pushing the power button.

The T.V. Flickered on.

The first thing to pop up was a muscular pony standing on his two legs, his long spikey hair shooting upwards as he swung his two hooves in front of him with a golden aurora engulfing him.

"KAMEHAMEHAAAAAA!"

*Click*

"Hello, Chris." A low-satanic voiced called out as a red shirted boy struggled in his chair in a dark room; sinister metal devices attached to his face, "Your parents were wealthy; you always took shelter behind your friends and never let them go." A screen in front of him flickered on, revealing a white faced doll with red-pointy cheeks, "I want to play a game."

*Click*

A bald pony dressed in a black up wearing a type of reflecting sunglasses, standing on a roof top while staring at another pony in front of him.

"What if I told you," He spoke, "That Lauren Faust is the ruler of Equestia?"

*Click*

Finally, Sonic found his show…A young stallion stood at the front of a metal battleship. A large flag gently waved in the wind, a black and red fire symbol embedded on it. Half of the stallion's face was scared, a painful reminder of banishment from his home.

"Tell Uncle," He spoke in a vengeful tone, lowering his portable telescope, "That I found the Avatar."

---

That night

Wads of tissue piled on the floor as Sonic continued to watch the screen. Sokka, the name of the colt who stood at the bridge with his beloved mare, slowly drift away in the air. They continued to hold hooves for as long as they can. By each passing second, the mare slowly began to disappear before the colt's eyes. When she vanished, her face became apparent on the full moon.

Sonic hung his head down, covering his face with his hands as he tried to keep his tears in.

"That ain't right," He whimpered, "That crap ain't right, man."

He began to cry out loud, "Why did she have to go!"

He laid his body on the bed, curling up as he cried into the soft pink pillow. He grabbed another tissue beside him and began to whip his eyes, blowing his nose and tossing the soaked tissue across the room. He cried for several minutes, drenching the pillow his head was laying on.

"It's O.K." A cheerful voice lowly said to him, a pink hoof stretching out and rubbing his side, "Sokka will find a new girlfriend."

"But she was special!" He cried out.

The pink mare continued to stoke his side. Sonic felt a little tingle of comfort coming from that-

…Wait a minute.

He froze in fear; his eyes shooting wide as he slowly turned his head. He was just about to scream until Pinkie put a hoof on his mouth, knocking the remote to the floor with a soft thud. Her cheerful smile widen, a musky scent stuffing the hedgehog's nostrils as her tail shot up.
"It's time for a little game of hokie , pokie!" She squealed in delight.

"Admiral!" The controller yelled from the T.V. In the deep essence of space, fleets of X-wing star fighters pulling away from the moon sized space station, "The shields are still up! We have enemy units engaging!"

She seized his arms with her hooves and feel over on him, kissing him deeply on the lips. Sonic began to scream out loud when the pony began her business.

"…It's a trap!"

---

The night was cold, even with Tails' thick fur he can feel the harsh air breathing down his neck. The moon has hid her face, only guided by street lights and scarce fireflies floating around the dark space. Tails was panting, leaned against a wall as he catches his breath. No matter how much he ran, no matter how much he hides…Twilight will be right behind him.

He knew it's only a matter of time before she finds him again. At this rate, he knew that the purple unicorn will catch him, pinning him to the ground and…He didn't want to think about it!

Visibility was low, completely dark in the streets, but he peek his head around the building anyways. The street lights only did so much, only lighting up the sides of the building, but he would have to make due. When he didn't see anything, he took a couple of breaths and ran into the opening.

When he stopped, he heard hooves behind him.

He spun around and saw the purple unicorn coming out of the darkness. She was wearing a checkered miniskirt and school vest, a wooden paddle floating right beside her. Her tail was sticking straight up, a deviant and lustful smile stretched across her face.

"You've been a bad boy," She growled while approaching him, her musky scent smothering the fox's nostrils, "Ms. Twilight will have to spank you!"

Tails took off down the street with Twilight chasing after him. When the chase dragged on out of Ponyville, the fox found his front surrounded by complete darkness. The only light that illuminated was Twilight's sparkling horn.

The light behind him was getting brighter and brighter by each footstep the fox took. No matter how fast he ran, Twilight eased closer and closer. Tails can feel his lungs burning from the cool air sipping in. It was hopeless, it was a matter of seconds until-

Wait…What's that in the distance? Is that light illuminating from a window?

A small glimmer of hope sparked in him. With darkness surrounding his sides, he ran as fast as he could towards that window, struggling to huff out the last bit of air in his lungs. He's never been spanked, and he's going to keep that streak!

Twilight may have lost a bit of ground, but she was still hot on his two tails. The fox pushed it; running as fast as he could. When he drew closer, he can make out a door right by the window. Just several feet of running and he'll be home fre-

*Smack!*

Tails yelped as he felt something smack his rear. One glance behind answered his question; the paddle Twilight was levitating floated just inches away from.

In one desperate sprint, Tails grabbed the doorknob and yanked as hard as he could…It didn't budge.

*Smack!*

Tails jumped again and found Twilight just six feet away from him.

Screaming, he kicked door; this time swinging it wide open. He leaped through door way, grabbing the door handle and slamming it closed. As soon as the door clicked, Tails heard a loud bang from the other side. He immediately locked the door and checked out the window…Twilight was knocked out, a large dent left on the door.

Exhausted, his back plumped against the wall, slowly sliding down until his red rump hit the floor. Huffing he observe his environment.

The first thing he noticed is a large square rug covering parts of the floor; a blue-wooden table standing at the edge of it. An empty fire place stood at the side of the room, immediately beneath it laid several small bowls…This must be the cottage.

"Brawwwwk!"

Tails' heart skipped a beat as he shot his head to the source of the noise…He sighed when he saw a little parrot roosting in his cage.

"Brawwk! Come in. Brawwk!"

After several minutes of huffing, he found the strength to stand to his feet. There's one thing he noticed that spooked him.

The animals were missing.

Then again, Tails was pretty sure he saw Fluttershy in town while running from Twilight, so he doesn't let that fact bother him.

"Brawk! Howdy stranger…Up, up and away."

Tails took this time to explore the cottage a little bit. He never had a chance to explore the house, so he might as well check out the house and make the house was empty as well.

While exploring, he made sure to place his sensitive ear on each door before opening them. One room contained several small beds for animals to sleep in, while another is her bedroom; which Tails will make sure to take advantage of when he secures the house.

After a couple of intense minutes of creaking doors, he was relieved that no one was found. He checked the cabinets in the kitchen earlier, glad that food and water will last until the heat passes. The only thing left to do is to board up the house.

Tails head back into the living room, breaking tables and pulling the wood off the walls to board up the windows and doors. He checked the window one last time to see if Twilight is still at the door step; she was still knocked out cold.

"Spring breeze. Brawk!"

Somewhat relieved, he board the doors first, then after several minutes, board the windows. Tails took one last scan through the house to see if he missed any openings or windows he needs to cover. When he was sure that everything is boarded; he yawned and headed up stares.

"Braaawwwwk! Hungry! Braawwwk!"

Tails looked behind and saw the parrot pointing towards his own mouth.

"I might as well feed him," He said to himself, "I can't let the little guy starved."

After a couple of minutes searching in the kitchen, he found a small bag labled 'parrot feed' in one of the cabinets. With a small cup in hand, he began to approach the bird cage.

"Braak! Hungry! Hungry! Hungry!"

"Don't worry," Tails called, "I have your food."

Now next to the cage, he carefully opened the cage door and poured the little cup onto his bowl. When he closed the cage and lay the cup down, the parrot began to dine into his bowl. Tails warmly smiled; who knew something like feeding a parrot can be a satisfaction. Suddenly, the parrot shot up; prancing around his little stand while bobbing his head up and down.

Tails was about to turn around and head upstairs until a very musky scent suffocated his nostrils. He held his nose and turned his body around-

And saw Fluttershy just two inches from his face.

Tails felt his limbs and muscles go limp, his conscience being gripped by these two giant-blue eyes; the very essence of his sole being violated in its presence. The petrified fox felt his scenes of space and time being consumed.

Suddenly, Tails fell to the floor; completely paralyzed.

Fluttershy began to mount him; after a couple of minutes, the cottage was filled with screams and pleas for mercy.

The parrot spoke while watching the pinned fox.

"You are the weakest link…Good bye!"

---

"This night will be night I will acquire vengeance," Shadow growled under his breath, crunching his hands, "They will witness my full power."

The cool night gently brushed against his spikey fur as he glared towards Ponyville below. It may be a dark night, but it won't stop him from his mission. He began to walk to the town until a sudden musky scent struck his nostrils.

"Heh?" After another whiff, he covered his nose, "What the heck is that smell?"

He checked his surrounding and found a silhouette of a mare standing in the far distance. When the mare spotted him, she spread her wings and zipped right in front of him.

Shadow began to make out of the mysterious pony. Her dirty blond mane swished gently to one side, her gray colt beginning to reveal itself in the darkness. What Shadow remembered most about her was her lazy eye drifting to one corner.

"What do you want?" He asked in his deep and ruffled voice.

She stepped a little closer to him, the stench intensifying when her tail shooting straight up to the air, "…I want my muffin."

Shadow stepped back, sneering a death glair at her, "Step back!"

Derpy ignored his threat and stepped closer, a somewhat seductive smile cresting across her lips,

"You're gonna be my muffin."

Shadow jumped back several feet, growling, "One more step and I'll rip you to shreds!"

Her wings shot open, her body crouched down and ready to charge.

Angry, Shadow took a fighting stance; bending down with his body twisted.

"…You will pay dearly for your ignorance."

Shadow put his hand in front of him, ready to summon a Chaos Spear as Derpy began her charge. When she closed in, Shadow threw his hand back…And nothing appeared.

The black hedgehog quickly glanced back at his fist. His heart raced, his pupils shrunk as a terrifying realization hit him…His powers were gone.

"…Oh crap!"

*THUD*

Derpy overpowered the struggling hedgehog to the floor. Shadow tried to teleport, but no matter how many times he tried, he stayed put. The mare seized his hands, pinning them to the ground as she smothered him with kisses.

"Get off of me!" He shouted in a panic, "What are you doing?! Wait!…No! No! Noooo! NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

---

Fancypants and Soarin galloped side by side while a whole group of mares were chasing close behind them. They've been running for five straight minutes, and they can feel their hooves beginning to tire out.

"I…I can't keep going!" Soarin huffed, almost tripping himself, "I have to fly!"

"Don't fly, dear Soarin!" Fancypants shouted, "You'll just go down quicker!"

"I-I-I can see clouds dale from here!" Soarin shouted, "I can make it!"

"NO! DON'T!"

Fancypants watched in horror as he took to the night sky, three female pegasi flying after him. The nobel kept running until he tripped. Soarin looked back and saw a half of dozen mares carrying the stallion away. He looked forward and was terrified of what obstructed him.

A hovering Rainbow Dash.

Instantly, he flew in the other direction with the colorful pony chasing after him.

"Where you going, honeybun!?" She shouted.

Soarin flapped his wings as hard as he could while Dashie chased him with a rainbow trail behind her. Dash bolted ahead, but Soarin made a sharp U-turn before she could catch him. He can see Clouds Dale right in front of him; if he could make the city, he can take cover in one of those building-

*BOOM!*

The Wonderbolt took one look behind him and saw a colorful shockwave around the smiling pegasus. Before Soarin knew it, he felt a crushing force hit his chest; sending him straight down to the ground with a thud. His vision blurred for a couple of minutes, when it became clear; his lips trembled when he saw Rainbow Dash right on top of him, specks of drool sliding down her lips. She put her hoof on his stomach.

"Baby," She whispered, lowing her head to his lips, "You're gonna taste the rainbow."

Two days later

Another day of survival in the Everfree Forest, another day of intense paranoia. Creeping and peeping around every tree that came across his path. Knuckles was at the break of insanity, his eyes blood shot and ruffled fur; his diet consisting of nothing more but berries and wild mushrooms. He had a stick in one fist and a rock in the other, raised up and posed to strike anything that went near him. He may have been lucky of escaping from the mares that wanted nothing more but to violate his body.

"It's going to be fine." He chanted silently to himself as he plunged deeper into the forest, "…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's go-"

A bush ruffles.

"STAY BACK, YOU FOUL DEMON!"

He threw his rock straight at the bush, hitting the bush with a thud. A little baby bunny rabbit scurried out of there with a nasty bump on his forehead.

Knuckles was hyper ventilating, his legs shaking and vibrating as he began to hold the little stick with both fists like a sword…He continued to stalk through the Everfree.

"I-I-I-It's going to be fine," He continued, "it's going to be fine, it's going to be fine, it's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's-"

Bumps into tree.

"DAAAAAAAA!"

He spun and started beating whatever bumped behind him. Screaming at the top of his lungs he continued to beat the tree until the stick in his hand snapped into two. When he realized what he has assaulted, he stood like a statue; dropping the stick to the floor. It took him a good five minutes for him to get moving again.

"…It's going to be O.K…" He mumbled, his eyes shrunk in sheer terror and suspense, his fist wrapping around his own body for comfort, "As long as I keep my head up…I'm going to be fine." He stumbled over to a rock and sat in front of it, propping his back against it, "…I-If I just stay put in just one spot…And just sit here for a couple of days…I'm going to be O.K."

With his legs tucked in around his arms, he began to rock back and forth on the spot; quietly mumbling gibberish to himself. The day slowly turned into night, and hasn't moved a muscle. There was a patch of mushrooms right beside him, and he did not hesitate to eat

He may see a dancing purple turtle in front of him after his meal…But he didn't care.

"Th-th-th-th-this is not so bad," He mumbled with a forced smile, "Just four or five days in the forest…Anybody can do this."

Knuckles continued to rock back and forth on his spot for a couple of more hours. The cold didn't bother him, hunger didn't bother him, the dancing purple turtle didn't bother him.

"…It's going to be fine." He continued to mumble, "…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be fine…It's going to be-"

Suddenly, he felt glass gently resting on his shoulder. A woman's voice called to him; a deep passionate voice.

"Greetings…My sexy subject."

Knuckles tripped when he tried to stand. He found himself lying on his back; staring up and beginning to whimper when he beheld what stood before him…Princess Celestia.

Her smile became deviant, taking a step closer as her horn began to glow.

"…No." He whimpered.

"Oh, yes." She exhaled, levitating the echidna.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

---

One day later

It was quite inside the waiting room in the hospital, rows of stallions lined up to get a checkup by a doctor. The heat has passed, over and done for this year; but the scars it left behind will always remain…especially for two creatures. Their eyes were wide open, fur and spikes ruffled up beyond recognition.

"That…" Sonic shook a little bit, his voice dry and shriveled, "That was the worst thing I've ever experienced…She did not stop…She just did not stop."

Fancypants was sitting by him, his back hooves curled to his stomach, "I was abused by dozens of mares; as soon as one was done another took her place."

"Oh, when they squeezed everything out of ya," Soarin added in, shaking in his seat, "They'll find other ways to do their business…They even made me do it with another stallion."

Snips and Snails were sitting by each other, with hooves wrapped each other's backs.

"Snips," Snails whimpered to him.

"Yea?"

"…We're never peeping again, man. If I had to see another plot, I'm going to breakdown."

"Me too, buddy," Snails gave his friend a much needed hug, "Me too."

After a minute, they noticed McIntosh sitting by them.

"Uh…How did it feel to finally lose your virginity?" Snips asked.

They got a better look at him. His eyes were wide open, pupils shrunk to the sides of peas as a flash back of experience popped in his mind. There were bruises around his four hooves, his back covered with red whip markings.

"…I wish I had it back." McIntosh whimpered, crying into his hooves.

Sonic was just shaking a bit in his seat until he noticed that Tails did not move a muscle since they arrived.

"You O.K?" Sonic asked him.

Tails didn't seem to move. His eyes were staring straight ahead, wide open and pupils expanded to the outer rims.

"…Those eyes." He whispered, "I felt those eyes grip the very essence of my soul."

Sonic exhaled and stood up, giving the petrified fox a hug, "I am so sorry."

While the two embraced each other. Soarin decided to take in his surroundings; he found something that bewildered him…Spike was sitting his chair, not terrified but more of a blank expression. Soarin had to force his voice to speak.

"How are you Spike, you making it?"

The purple dragon was just simply twiddling his thumbs until the Wonderbolt called him out.

"Hm?...Oh yea, I'm doing good."

His answered bewildered the pegasus, it was as if he didn't go through anything at all, "You sure?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" Spike asked.

"Well…Rarity raped you, didn't she?"

Spike put a claw to his chin, pondering on his question, "…I didn't think it was that bad."

Every stallion in the waiting room gave him such a bewildered look, their minds in complete shock by his sentence.

"…What?" Soarin asked

Spike rubbed the back of his head, "In fact, I think I kinda enjoyed it."

McIntosh gave the dragon a stair, "Do ya not remember tha things she used on ya!?"

"I do," Spike simply answered, "She may have tied me down and…Other things, but," A little appreciative smile crest across his lips, "I would have did it again if I could…Besides." He stared to the heavens with a heavenly sigh, "I've embraced the most beautiful mare in Equestia."

Every stallion shook their heads and resumed either comforting each other or licking their wounds…After a couple of minutes, Amy came walking to the waiting room; seeing rows and rows of stallions hugging each other or rocking back and forth in their chairs. She found Sonic embracing Tails, tears of agony rolling down their faces.

"…What in the heck did I miss?" She asked herself.

Shadow was paralyzed, his back flat against the dirt as he stared at the puffy clouds above; eyes widen and pupils shrunk. It was the worst thing he has experienced. Derpy was lying by him, her eyes drifting to the sides. She quickly glanced over, seeing the black hedgehog in great distress.

"I'm sorry about that, mister, but…" She exhaled, "I just don't know what went wrong."

"There, there," Celestia cooed, spooning Knuckles as he laid curled up on the floor, "It's O.K. It's all over now."

Knuckles continued crying out loud, his voice reaching to every ends of the Everfree Forest. The light-yellow sun light pierced through the limbs above, shining on the two. The red echidna had his arms wrapped around himself, his legs tucked in.

"I…" His voice choked, "I feel so dirty!"

"I know, I know." She whispered to him, holding him in closer, "Shhhhh..."

Celestia continued to embrace the poor thing in her hooves, taking extra care not to startle him as she wiggled her own body to get more comfortable. The red echidna for a good fifteen minutes before finally settling down enough to stop crying out loud; his lips were still trembling, though, still broken down and violated beyond anything he imagined. Celestia pulled him in even closer, closing her eyes and she softly began to sing to him.

Author's notes.

Readers…I REGRETE NOTHING!

Kinda went a little crazy with references...Dragon Ball Z, Avatar the Last Airbender, The Matrix, even Scary Movie 2 (I just couldn't resist that!)

The idea was inspired from a skit in the fan fiction Living the Dream. I'm not going to say the author because of his name, but just look it up on this site and you should find it; it has more than 1000 reviews. I looked at it and I said to myself, "Hm, I bet it would be hilarious to see Sonic and his friends caught up in that."…So I did it with no regrets. It may have been disturbing to some of you, but it was fun to write!

I'm going to go ahead and tell ya'll the next plan for the bonus. I will be taking viewer requests; name a scenario and I might do it…Just a couple of rules everyone needs to follow.

1. No grimdark reference, like Cupcakes. I know it was amusing, but I ticked off several readers with it.

2. No extra characters that haven't been introduced in the story…I don't know how the other characters act.

3. Be free to express your ideas, but I will do them in the respect of the rating…Which is rated T to remind you.

4. The most important rule…PRIVATE MESSAGE! The idea won't be as good if everyone will know about it!

I will be doing 3, maybe 4 or maybe 5 senarios in the bonus. I might do a couple myself, but it won't count.

It may be a while before the next chapter is done, but I'm telling you; no more than two weeks.
