7. The Make Up, the Wizard's Tower, and Unexpected Surprises

I felt horrible about what I said to Savyna, she didn't deserve all of the hurtful things I had said in anger and fear but I didn't deserve to be lied to either. While I had been furious about that fact it was meaningless in the grand scheme of things as I had done the one thing I swear I would never do to her. I had hurt Savyna in the worst way possible and for that I deserved her ire and full on hatred. I really needed to speak with Savyna and tell her the truth about my anger and hateful words but I hadn't seen her since the fight. It had been two weeks now and I had been driving myself to insanity worrying about her and how I was going fix this. In the first few days I had had just acted like it hadn't happened and told everypony the Savyna was going to not be around for a while because she need to train for her next job. This worked for the most part as Apple Bloom and Big Mac didn't question it. Granny Smith on the other hand was a bit suspicious but said nothing out loud, she just watched me and waited.

When it had become a full week since the fight and my behavior become moody and erratic, I had not been sleeping a lot, I was was hungry all the time, and the sudden up and down motion of my moods hadn't helped matters either on top of the fight with Savyna. Granny Smith began to question me every chance she had me alone. I was quick to dismiss her concerns as me reacting to the time apart from my marefriend and I was trying not to be too selfish with her time after all she had to work for a living and her friends need her too. This work for a time until it got closer to a full two weeks and the depression really set in and I realized the horrible mistake I had made. The mood swings had gotten so bad that I had been snapping at everypony in the house. Now I had to figure out if I still wanted a relationship with Savyna and if I did I need see if was it still possible to save it after the mess of things I had made. I also hoped getting things fix with Savyna would helped my mood before I had pushed my family completely away from me.

After getting dressed in a frilly red skirt, a red and white blouse with my cutie mark on it, and the a pair of white short heels, all of which Savyna had bought me, I made up my mind to try and get my marefirend back as I did love her after all. The real question now was if I was going to try how would I go about doing it? I knew going to talk to her was going to end in a fight, she was just as stubborn and hot-tempted as me if not more so and I had really stuck hoof in my mouth when I yelled about the whole vampire thing. While she should have told me about that up front I shouldn't have panicked about it, if she had intended to bite me she would have the first night we were intimate. Really the whole thing seemed to make sense why she avoid talking about her birth mother, talking about that event in her past the gives her nightmares still, and why she was so afraid to tell me the truth about her real self. All of this made that nightmare I had so much more meaningful now, I had sensed the darkness about Savyna and the dream was a warning not to pressure her about it, to leave it be until she was ready to talk about otherwise I was going make her chose to go into the darkness. I had betrayed Savyna's trust in me and this was the price I had to pay, in my hubris I may just have lost her to the darkness in her heart because of my pride, my arrogance.

After shaking my head and giving myself a mental slap I went downstairs for lunch since I had slept in I missed breakfast, if I was going to fix my love life I need strength to do so. I made my way in to the kitchen and I found Granny Smith and she had made me a omelet with some toast, both of which were waiting for me at the table but the former of the two had a look her face that told me I was in for a lecture about my recent behavior. I poured myself some non-alcoholic apple cider and sat at the table, it was funny but since my heat I had been staying away from alcohol when a mare in my position would be drinking ever chance she got, broken heart and all.

Granny Smith pushed the plate in front of me before scooting her chair a bit closer. Since I didn't see Big Mac or Apple Bloom anywhere, Big Mac must've went to Cheerilee's for his day off since it was Saturday, and I guessed Apple Bloom was either with the CMC or at Dragon Feather's spending time with Dragon Song. The good thing was they were both gone so I could speak with Granny candidly without worrying about it getting around town or having to explain a whole lot to Apple Bloom about adult relationships or yelling at either her or Big Mac like I had in the the last week or so. The bad thing was since I had been worried about the fight with Savyna and my own hubris I hadn't worked on helping AB with her love life problems. I would have to get on that after I fixed mine, if I could fix mine.

“This isn't right and ya know it youngin'.” Granny started off as she stared me down after I sat down took a bite of my toast. She seemed to always know whats going on without me explaining it to her almost like she can see the future or something. In this situation that was both a good and bad thing, on one hand I didn't need to explain anything to her in great detail but on the other hand I couldn't omit little details like the horrible things I had said. I wondered if I would have that same power when I was her age?

“Ah know it ain’t prefect with you being a mare and she a human of sorts, don't understand all this half dragon stuff and don't claim ta know either, but that gal loves and Ah know ya love her so stop bein' stubborn and fix it.”

“Ah know Granny Smith but I don't know what ta do.” I said to her after swallowing what was in my mouth. “I don't know how ta fix this when I'm so upset bout her lyin ta me.” Granny Smith smiled and put her hand on mine.

“AJ yer mah granddaughter, Ah know what makes ya happy and when you were with Savyna you were happier than Ah've ever seen ya even after ya meet yer friends and become an Element of Harmony. Since that fight of yers ya haven't been eatin' or sleepin' right and that's not good fer ya at all. Ya been yellin' at both Apple Bloom and Big Mac fer the least little things in the last week or so if yer not cryin' or yellin' bout Savyna bein' stupid and lyin' ta ya. Ya need ta fix it youngin' for both yer sakes.” Granny Smith said as she seemed ta stare at my stomach for a second or two before she got up and went to the stove to get her plate.

“Yer right Granny Smith, Ah do need ta fix this but she lied ta me and worst yet she had no intention of tellin' me the truth even after she promised ta do so. Ah mean what she lied bout was big and....” I started to tell Granny Smith about the vampire thing but she cut me off.

“Horsefeathers! Ah don't care if she was the daughter of Discord and Queen Chrysalis or a werewolf or even a damned blood suckin' vampire! She told ya she loved ya and you said the same ta her. After that nothing else matters!” Granny Smith point out as she started me with her brow furrowed in anger while shaking a finger at me knowingly. “Now ya listen here and you listen good Apple Jack cause this is the best advice Ah will ever give ya. If yer beliefs are different, meet in the middle. If ya live too far apart, move ta the city in the middle. If yer job gets in the way, get a new one that lets ya have time with yer loved one. If yer not compatible ta have foals, ya use science and magic ta make it happen. Ya do what ever it takes ta make it work even if ya have ta swallow yer pride dammit, and do what ya have ta! Celestia's sun and Luna's moon both know Ah and yer grandfather have done that with each other more times then Ah can count apples on the trees in the south field. Swallow yer pride Apple Maria Jack and go tell Savyna how you really feel, even if'n it doesn't work out.” Granny Smith told me with a look a fire in her eyes.

I was taken back as I had never heard Granny Smith swear or heard her speak so passionately about anything. She was on fire and it gave me hope but it also meant I had to swallow my pride and say I was sorry for being stubborn and hot-tempted, not an easy task for me or any apple.

Granny Ah... Thank ya Granny Smith, Ah'm gonin' do it. Ah'll swallow my pride and fix this and Ah'll be back and hopefully with Savyna at mah side.” I said getting up from the table.

“Were ya off ta in such a hurry Apple Jack?” Granny Smith asked with a little smile. She knew full well but asking was her way of seeing if my resolve was firmly set.

“Ta see a unicorn about the best way ta say Ah'm sorry then ta go say Ah'm sorry.” I told her before I went and grabbed Selene's letter before grabbing the rest of my brunch to go then leaving out the door.

I went into town, brunch finished in haste along the way, my first stop was Dragon Feather's house. If anypony could help me find a way to say I'm sorry it was him, after all he knew Savyna much better then I did and it was about time he broke his silence. When I got to his house I could hear him arguing with somepony and it sounded right bad too. In fact it was almost like he was using the royal Canterlot voice as the door seemed to vibrate as he yelled. He was yelling about all of the sacrifices he made to keep her safe, all of the time spent making up and paying for fights, bad behavior, and all of the stealing only for her to start it all over again here in Ponyville. I soon figured out he was arguing with Dragon Song so Apple Bloom had to be with the CMC today or at least Sweetie Belle. I was hoping it was Sweetie Belle as this fight between siblings might have something to do with a certain Cutie Mark Crusader by the name of Scootaloo.

I banished the ill feeling about the situation with those two from my mind as I turned to leave, I would just came back later and talk to him right now I needed advice and badly. So my only hope in this desperate situation was to just tell Twilight what was going on and hope she had some good advice or at least a book on the subject. I had just stepped off the front landing when the door opened up a bit and Apple Bloom stuck her head out scanning the area. As soon as she spotted me she opened the door fully and motioned for me to come in quickly. I entered the house and once the door was shut Apple Bloom hugged me and was crying for all she was worth. I held her tightly and let her cry it out as it seemed to be the best thing to do for her at the time. After she was done crying a few minutes later she looked up at me.

“Apple Bloom what in tarnations is goin' on here? Ya can hear Feather down the street, why is he so mad at Dragon Song? What happened to make ya cry like that?”I asked her once she was calm enough to speak.

“Dragon Song and Scootaloo got in ta a fight over me earlier today and Scootaloo is... is in the hospital with a broken arm. Ah never seen Dragon Song so angry before, she was like a monster.... Her eyes were so full of anger and hate, it was like she wanted ta kill... Ah was so scared she was gonin' kill...” She never finished the sentence as she started cryin' again.

In that moment I understood why Savyna had so hurt by my words. AB had seen the dark side of Dragon Song just like I had seen Savyna's but the difference was I had never seen Savyna fight out of anger. Those few souls of Connamaraia I knew all had a darkness in them that they struggled to keep in check, another self that was strong, fear inducing, and angry, something that normal pony would see as a monster but in truth it nothing more then the same thing any other pony struggled against after all we all have things about ourselves that we feel is frighting to others. Apple Bloom and I were both learning this lesson the hard way.

“Is Scootaloo okay?” I asked calmly.

“Yeah but she's pretty bruised, missin' some feathers from her wings, and her left arm is broken in four places. The doctor said it would be a month before the cast can come off. AJ this all my fault, what am Ah goin' do now? Scootaloo will never talk ta me after this and when Dragon Song gets angry it frightens me now. Maybe this was all a mistake, maybe Ah should have never told either of them bout mah feelings.” Apple Bloom said as she dried her eyes, voice tiny, distant, and full shame.

“Don't you ever say that! Yer feelings fer Dragon Song weren't a mistake and Dragon Song being anger is okay though she have never struck Scootaloo out of anger. She has a right ta be mad since she loves you and doesn’t want anypony ta make you feel that lovin' her is wrong. This isn't all yer fault but ya have some blame in this so does Scootaloo, as does Rainbow Dash, Dragon Feather, and Ah do too. As Adults we should have sat ya'll down and had ya talk this out. After Ah talk to Dragon Feather you, Dragon Song and Scootaloo are goin' ta put an end ta this mess once and fer all while the adults do the same.” I told Apple Bloom before hugging her tightly. “Now go sit down somewhere and work out what yer goin' ta say ta Scootaloo and Dragon Song while Ah handle this with Dragon Feather.”

Apple Bloom nodded her head and headed off up the stairs so I figured she had room here when she stayed over or at least I hoped that Dragon Feather made them sleep in separate rooms. I would find out about that late, there were more important things to be concerned with. I walked into the living room to find Dragon Feather still yelling at Dragon Song who had the angriest look on her face I had ever seen on a young mare's face. She looked up at me as her eyes filled with sadness as if ta say I'm sorry I never meant for this to happen. When Dragon Feather saw his sister's attention shift to me he looked over and stood still until I sat down next to Dragon Song.

“Hello Apple Jack, I'm sorry that we have to meet again under such disheartening circumstances but I assure you this will never happen again. I also want you to know that Dragon Song will be make this up to Apple Bloom and Scootaloo after she is off punishment for this incident, unfortunately that may take a few months.” Dragon Feather told me in his calm but still very proper asshole tone.

“Feather yer being an ass again and Ah know what's goin' on. Ah talked to Apple Bloom so now Ah need ta talk ta you and Dragon Song ta get the rest of the story.” I told Feather who just blushed then nodded yes to me. “Now Dragon Song Ah know ya love Apple Bloom and yer frustrated with Scootaloo always tryin' ta get Apple Bloom ta stop datin' you and date her right?”

“Yes I am. I never meant to hurt her like I did nor did I wanted Apple Bloom to be afraid of me but I was so angry and frustrated that Scootaloo didn't care that she was hurting Apple Bloom. It made me so angry I couldn't see right from wrong and I hit her in the face.” Dragon Song explained to me.

“What happened? Tell me from the beginnin'?” I asked Dragon Song. “Feather you button that lip until she done talkin' ya hear me?”

“Well I had gone to talk to Sweetie Belle today to tell her that if I was the reason she wasn't spending time with Apple Bloom I would spend less time with her so that Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and her could spend time as the CMC. I told Sweetie I would never come between the three of them since they were friends long before I meet them. I told her that I didn't need to join the CMC either if it would help the matter more so Scootaloo would see less of me and could stop ignoring Apple Bloom. Sweetie Belle told me that she had been spending less time with Apple Bloom because Scootaloo had gotten depressed over the situation so she wasn't coming out of her room in the last few days. So Sweetie Belle had been spending time with her but thought if the Crusaders could do some crusading again things might work out in time. I told Sweetie Belle that was a fine plan and I would help by staying out of the way for a while. I asked her to tell Apple Bloom that I had to go back to Connamaraia for while so she was free to go crusading with the CMC with out guilt or worrying about me fighting with Scootaloo. I was all set to ask big brother to take me back to Connamaraia for a while since I was feeling homesick for culture of our birth land just to be out of the way. I had just finished speaking with Sweetie Belle when Apple Bloom and Scootaloo showed up. I took that opportunity to tell AB I was leaving Ponyville for a while with Dragon Feather and she should spend some time with her friends and when I got back we would catch up.”

“Alright ya talked ta Sweetie Belle then rest CMC showed up and ya told Apple Bloom you were goin' out of town so she could see her friends, Ah get that but how did the fight start?” I asked.

“After Apple Bloom and shared a quick hug I started to leave when Scootaloo started yelling about me being there. I let it go and told AB that I loved her and I would see her in a few weeks. As I was leaving again Scootaloo start up about how I was just running away, that Apple Bloom need a pony that was brave and wouldn't run from anything like her. The whole time she was talking and boasting about how I was just scared of facing her and she was so much braver and better was then me I watched the hurt and pain flash cross Apple Bloom's face. It hurt me so much that I got angrier then I have ever been in my life. I wasn't about to let anypony hurt Apple Bloom not even one of her friends, I lost control for a moment and I struck Scootaloo in the face knocking her to the ground.” Dragon Song said sadly.

“Ya punched Scootaloo in the face then what happened?”

“After I realized what I had done I tried to apologize to Scootaloo as she lay on the ground rubbing her cheek. When she got up she told me to shut up that she didn't want to hear my fake apology she just wanted to fight. From there we began screaming at each other about who was better for Apple Bloom to be with. Apple Bloom tried to pull me away but I just pushed her hands away as Scootaloo and I got angrier at each other. Sweetie Belle pulled Apple Bloom away seconds later so she would get hit if and when Scootaloo and I started throwing punches. As we argued it soon become who could say the meaner more nastier thing about the other until Scootaloo hit me back and knocked me to the ground. I was even angrier then when I hit her that she had surprised me enough to knock me down. From there my anger turned to pure hate and boiled over when I got to my hooves. I challenged Scootaloo to fight, winner got Apple Bloom and loser had to stay away from her permanently. Scootaloo answered my challenge by hitting me in the face again knocking me to the ground. After I got up again I lost control completely and beat her up pretty bad. I never meant to break her arm or bruise as bad as I did but I was so angry and hurt that I couldn't stop myself. I know Apple Bloom is scared of me now after what I did and I don't blame her. I'm a monster and that's all Apple Bloom will see me as now.” Dragon Song finished as tears rolled down her cheeks, the little filly was so torn up inside about her own anger.

“Yer not a monster!” I said loudly as I slapped the table hard, “don't you ever think that. You just got angry is all and what ya did is wrong but so was what Scootaloo did. Now that Ah know what's goin' on we are gonin' fix this right here today. Dragon Song go get Apple Bloom she's upstairs, Feather go get Rarity and Sweetie Belle and meet me and the girls at the hospital so this love triangle can end today.”

“What about Rainbow Dash, AJ?” Dragon Feather asked me some worry in his voice at my new found anger.

“What bout RD?” I asked back unsure of what he meant with a lot of frustration still in my voice.

“She was at the hospital when Rarity rushed Scootaloo in with the other girls in tow. That fight happened in front of her place and Sweetie Belle ran to get Rarity as Song broke Scootaloo's arm. Rainbow Dash was pretty upset about everything and even yelled at me about the whole thing along with Scootaloo's parents. I didn't find out what had happened until one the town guards showed up to tell to come pick Song up at the hospital.” Dragon Feather told me as he jumped back away from me a little.

“Don't you worry none bout Rainbow Ah'll deal with her you just worry bout talkin' it out with Scootaloo's parents.” I told Feather who just nodded at before he was off to collect Rarity and Sweetie Belle. I really think he was starting to become afraid of me.

Once the girls were ready I took them to the hospital where Feather and the others were waiting for us. We all went inside, I got Scootaloo's room number from the nurse at the front desk and we headed there. Once there Rainbow Dash was the first to spot us coming down the hall. She quickly flew over to start yelling but before she could start anything I cut her off.

“Ah'll listen ta whatever ya have ta say in a few minutes Rainbow Dash but first these four young mares need ta handle their own problems by themselves with out us adults interferin'. Now Ah know everyone is upset with Dragon Song but she more upset with herself then all of us combined. She knows what she did was wrong and is willin' ta make it right but it's now up ta us ta lets these young mares handle their own problems like young mares. They're not little fillies anymore and we need ta remember and respect that.” I told the others.

“Your right Apple Jack but this whole situation is a hard thing to let go. That young mare did assault our daughter and put her in the hospital. What do you expect us to do? I mean we just can't over look this is as it was just a small verbal thing on the school yard with just nasty words said.” Scootaloo's father, Swift Wind said as he held his wife close.

Swift was a rather tall earth pony with light brown coat and a just black mane and tail both of which we cut short and left rough looking, a classic stallion cut. He was a law pony dealing minor criminal cases like petty theft, jaywalking tickets things like that for locals and now non-Equestrian defendants with boarders being open. With him being a lawyer it was going to take some smooth talking to get this to come out just right but I was prepared for this.

“Ah get that Swift Wind and Ah'm not askin' ya ta over look this. Yer right Song did assault yer daughter and she needs ta be punished fer that. We can all agree on that right?” I asked the group and everypony nodded even Dragon Song herself. “What Ah'm sayin' is that the girls would like to fix their own problem with this situation like young adults and they are willin' ta own up ta their mistakes. All we have ta do is let them.”

“Is this true young mare? Are you willing to except whatever punishment we think is fitting for this?” Scootaloo's mother. Silver Lining, asked as she eyed Dragon Song skeptically. The older mare's eyes narrowing as she stared at the younger mare hard and that seemed to scare Song a bit as she shivered a little.

Silver Lining was a rather short pegasus mare, only standing 5'3” in height, her coat was the some orange as Scootaloo's and her mane and tail were both a lighter shade of lavender then her daughter's with several streaks of silver thru them, not a very scary mare at all by appearance but she was and seen very intimidating do to her piercing blue green eyes, the sharp edge of her tongue, and her job as a high court magistrate which was what put the fear in most ponies when they had the misfortune or pleasure of being in front of her, even me at times.

“Yes ma'am, whatever punishment you deem is fitting I will endure with out hesitation. I did this horrible thing and for that I'm truly sorry I just wish to say I'm sorry to Scootaloo and end this fighting once and for all. I don't want anything like this to happen again.” Dragon Song answered with a quiver in her voice moments after the question was asked.

Dragon Feather do you accept full responsibility for any legal actions that we may take as a part of her punishment in this matter?” Swift Wind asked Feather.

“Yes, no matter the action or the amount requested I will assume all legal responsibilities in this matter as her legal guardian. You have my word on this as a stallion and gentlecolt.” Feather replied as he offer his hand to Swift Wind. Swift accepted it and they shook on the agreement.

“Well with that said we won't be pressing any charges this time provided that Dragon Song made amends for what she did by apologizes for the fight and helping Scootaloo out until her arm is healed. Dragon Feather you will take care of all of the medical bills here and send Dragon Song to at least three weeks of anger management classes held here at the hospital three times a week. As long as both of you agree to these terms we are in agreement to let the girls settle their own problems on their own terms like young adults.” Silver Lining told us with a soft smile.

Dragon Song and Feather agreed to the terms even though Song was visible not happy about three or more weeks of anger management classes. Song quickly apologized to Scootaloo's parents right there bowing at the end like she was taught and she even promised to deliver two hand writing letters of apology to them in the next few days. After that was settled Song and the girls were on their way in to Scootaloo's room to finally settle things with the battered pegasus when Rainbow Dash jump in the way.

“Hold up! There is no way I'm letting that monster of a filly in there with Scoots again. She already put Scootaloo in the hospital and I'm not given her a chance to finish the job!” Rainbow Dash shouted as she barred the door to Scootaloo's room. “I don't care if she does want to apologize I'm not buying that for a second. She just saying that so she finish off the competition.”

This display of bash attitude and anger at Song shocked everypony in the hallway save for me and Dragon Feather. The former was pissed and the latter was scared of what the former was about to do the cyan mare in front of her if she didn't move away from the door she was blocking. It was seconds after the shock wore off that Silver Lining was going to say something but I beat her to the punch.

“Don't you dare call her a monster, Rainbow Dash! This mess is just as much yer fault fer telllin' Scootaloo ta fight fer Apple Bloom's attention when ya both knew Apple Bloom had already made her choice. Yes, Scootaloo loves Apple Bloom but Apple Bloom doesn't love her back in the same way and that's fine but ya can force somepony ta love ya when their heart belongs ta another. Ah see the love Dragon Song has fer mah sister and the love mah lil' sister has fer her and Ah will defend that love tooth and nail. Now get out of the way and let this be over and done with or you and me are gonin' have a fight that even the Magic of Friendship won't be able ta fix!” I told Rainbow with fire in my voice. I was dead set on getting this over and done with cause if I could fix this that meant I had hope for getting Savyna back, or at least that's what I felt in my heart at the time.

Rainbow Dash back up confused at my sudden anger and willingness to fight her over letting Dragon Song say sorry for a fight that was the adults fault for interfering and not interfering at the proper times. Scootaloo's parent seemed dumbfounded and shocked in to silence at my last boisterous comment but they also could see my resolve at letting the young mares handle their own problems. Rainbow Dash stood still for a minute thinking about if she really wanted to fight me or not. All of the other ponies in the hallway stood still not wanting to make the situation any worse but not able to find a way to make it any better and Rarity was ready to faint at a moments notice.

“Okay fine she can go but I want a neutral third party to watch so nothing funny happens. She already attacked Scoots once and I don't believe all she wants to do is just say sorry, not yet.” Rainbow Dash countered.

“Fine if want somepony ta watch then Rarity will go.” I told Rainbow with a wild look still on my face.

“Me?! W-Why me darling? Surely there is somepony else that could go, like Fluttershy or maybe Pinkie Pie? Twilight would be better for this kind of thing since she's a princess, don't you think?” Rarity asked completely surprised to be named as the third party to watch over the girls ending this little feud.

“It's simple Miss Belle, from what I gather about the situation Sweetie Belle been in the middle of this lovers triangle as it were the whole time not taking a side because she friends with all three of the girls in the middle of this fight. Which means that of all the ponies standing here you Miss Belle are the only adult here to have no stake in the end of this argument one way or the other. Even my husband and I can't say that after all Scootaloo is our daughter and as her parents we would rather see her happy even if it means not being fair and impartial like our profession dictates we should be. You really are the only neutral party present here and I have to say you are excellent choice in being the one mediate this so the girls really do apologized to one another.” Silver Lining explained in her very authoritative and judicial voice after she cleared her throat to get our attention.

“So will ya go?” I asked Rarity without turning round to look at her, I don't want to take my eyes off Rainbow Dash, Dash seemed to be thinking the same thing as her body was just as tense as mind was. If Rarity didn't agree soon I didn't see any way to avoid a fight with Dash that would mostly likely end our friend forever..

“I'll do it but only if Apple Jack and Rainbow Dash will agree to sit down later and talk this out because we are all friends and fighting like this is not what friends should do. Do you agree Apple Jack? And you too Rainbow Dash?” Rarity had her face set in a serious look and stomped her hoof to put emphasis on her point.

“Ah agree.” I said after a few seconds. “I agree as well.” Rainbow Dash said moments after me. “Besides I can't fight AJ her marefriend, Savyna, would mangle me if I hit her.”

“Umm... yeah but I wouldn't let her interfere like that. That's why she's not here.” I told everypony. No need to tell them we broke up since I was going to fix that after this.

The adults stood out in the hallway for about an hour waiting nervously for a yay or nay to the end of this fight. while I was out there waiting on Rarity to poke her head back out I thought of how I was gonna fix things with Savyna. I know she's probably still upset and ready to fight again after what I said. I did have a little bit working in my favor though. This little situation between Dragon Song and Apple Bloom helped me realize where she was coming from, I now had insight of where I had gone wrong. It was a start but if I was going to get Savyna back I need a stronger foundation to lay my apology on and hopefully Feather would give the information I needed to do just that.

After a few more minutes I saw Rarity poke her head out and look for us before walking out the room and over to us. Everypony waited with baited breath for the self proclaimed premiere fashionista turned temporary diplomat to speak.

“How are they?” I asked her with worry and concern showing on my face. Rarity looked at me with wide eyes before answering.

“Oh Apple Jack it's just horrible!” Rarity exclaimed to me. I went wide-eyed and dropped my mouth open in shock. I had failed somehow and the girls were fighting again. Silver Lining had look similar to mine and Feather looked like he was about to throw-up at the thought of the fortune in bits Song was about to cost him in medical bills and legal fees.

“Why?! What happened?! Are the girls okay?” Silver Lining and I asked her about ready to break the door down as we moved closer to the room. As Rarity ready herself to tell us the bad news Silver and I couldn't wait and ran passed the fashionista to the room. When got to the door we heard laughter from the room, my face switched from worry to confusion. Silver Lining and I both looked back at Rarity with the same confused look playing a crossed our faces.

“They colored Scootaloo's cast and it totally clashes with her mane!” Rarity said in her dramatic tone, as if it were the end of the world, I blew out a sigh of relief as did the judicial mare next to me.

“Of all things to do to the poor filly while she stuck in this hospital in those dreary gowns, but to color her cast that horrid sea foam green to clash with the beautiful shade of lavender that is her mane. It's just... The. Worst. Possible. Thing. EVER!”

“Rarity what the buck!?Ah was this close ta slappin' the hay outta you!” I exclaimed as I held my finger close to my thumb to show that there was barely space left between them.

“Normally I'm not one for violence Miss Belle, but I will have to agree with Apple Jack I was that close to slapping the hay out you as well.” Silver Lining said with a giggle as she pointed to my fingers.

“So their okay?” I asked after a small giggle at Silver's comment.

Rarity looked at Silver and I with exaggerated look of shock and horror marring her face as she completely surprised that we would even dare to hit her, but if the circumstances were right I sure would have and judging from the look on Silver Lining's face she would have too. Once she was over her shock and seeing that we we deathly serious about striking her Rarity oped to just let it go do to the large amount of drama already present in the situation.

“Why of course their okay darling, doing quite well now that that dreadful fight is behind them. Fashionably coordinated is another matter entirely, they are far from that but I will say the Dragon Song needs less help then the other three girls. Well I could try and help them all but there's no helping in a place like this, its just too dreary and depressing here, the place could use a some fresh colorful paint and it smells so much of sterile cleaning chemicals. I mean really dear, this was kind of last minute notice.” Silver Lining, Rainbow Dash, and I all rolled our eyes just before everypony in the hallway just face palmed at what Rarity had said.

After hearing that the girls were okay I told Rainbow Dash that we would settle up later at Rarity's place with Rarity as the mediator so we didn't fight for real. I didn't wait for Dash to agree before I told Feather to come with me since I needed to talk to him alone and the girls would be fine in Rarity's care as she was getting ready to try and fix their fashion sense. We said our goodbyes to Silver Lining and Swift Wind, Feather promised to get Song signed up for anger management class the following day and as soon as Scootaloo was out of the hospital Song would be there to help her out until her arm healed.

Once we were out the hospital and a ways down the street I started explaining to him why we needed to talk. It didn't take long before I had told him everything had had happen two weeks ago. He didn't seemed surprised about us fighting over me call Savyna a monster. He didn't seemed surprised about Selene showing up either, in fact that bit of information seemed to get him rather angry. Most of the time Dragon Feather was calm and collect, like it was hard for him to show intense emotion around others, it was hard to read his true feeling us less he let them out but in moment of extreme emotion he was like whole other stallion. He was more angrier then a long hair cat that had fallen into a pony on a rainy day. But the whole time I talked he didn't speak, he just listened and grounded his hoof into the street stone making rather deep hoof shaped impression in the stone.

“Dragon Feather, now Ah know you know a lot bout Savyna's mother and since Ah already know that Selene exists and that she's a vampire ya can talk bout her. So spill yer guts on why she hates you and yer family so much?” I demanded from him as he stood there quietly fuming about something.

“That fanged woman has been nothing but a pain in my ass ever since I meet her! Selene has hate me long before she met me. The truth is that the dragons have always had fear or dislike of vampires since they stole one of our greatest magi long ago. She was the strongest of us all at the time and with her lost the dragons split into the five major dragon clans and hundreds of minor clans that exist today. As one who is of dragon's blood a dislike of vampires is only natural for me but when it comes to Selene I hold a special place of hate in my heart for her.” Dragon Feather spoke with a hash and bitter tone to his voice as he punched the side of a building rather hard leaving a large hole and cracked stone work.

“No really? Tell me how ya really feel bout her, sugarcube?” I asked him wanting to see what he would say or let slip out in a moment of anger. A body is often the most honest when in a fit of anger or sadness.

“That woman has made my life a living hell not to mention that she bugged Savyna to join her in the 'family' since she found out about the massacre. Selene says she just wants what's best for Savyna but really she just wants Savyna around so she doesn't have to feel guilty about what she did years before Savyna was born.” Dragon Feather said as he kicked a trash can over a house way down the block. I heard it hit the ground and hope no pony had been hit but I had to worry about that later I needed more information from Feather so I pushed farther.

“Ya don't say sugarplum, so what did she do before Savyna was born?” I asked quickly, “I mean a woman as sexy as Selene couldn't do anything that bad could she?”

“Sexy? Yeah right!Are you kidding me AJ? She sexy alright but fails at it really. She was the one that fell for Savyna's father when she was sent there to kill him. Jon Stark should have never had a legacy but he did and it was his very assassin that gave it to him. Jon's family line contains sever powerful Vampire Hunters in it and any children produced by Jon would have the potential to become elite hunters given the right training or circumstances. Not to mention that Jon's family line long ago wipe out most of the top families in the Vampire Aristocratic Society before they retired from the hunt for some reason ten generations before Jon was born. The leaders of Vampire Aristocratic Society still a live from that mass hunt wanted to make sure that line of hunter would never rise again so when the found out the Jon Stark was the last of that feared line they want him dead and as soon as possible. The sent their best Death Dealer to end him and his potential threat to the vampire power and way of life. That assassin had been none other then Selene, she was to kill Jon before he learn of his bloodlines true powers and purpose but she fell in love with him after trying to kill him several times. After her family branch of the Vampire Aristocratic Society found out she was pregnant with his baby they ordered the unborn child destroyed immediately.”

“Wait a second, we both know that didn't happen and Ah know that Savyna's father is still alive. So what made the vampire leaders change their minds bout Savyna?”

“Selene had a powerful ally in the head families, her sire to be exact, The Vampire General Viktor, the one responsible for the creation of the Death Dealers. Thanks to Viktor Savyna was spared a death sentence since Selene look up to Viktor as a surrogate father figure and he sees her a surrogate daughter so by proxy Savyna was his grandchild and Viktor could not allow harm to come to that child. On Vikotr's authority Selene was forbidden to have any contact with Jon or her half breed daughter after she gave birth to her. This decree was provisional though she was forbidden to see either of them until Savyna show promise as a vampire and could be use as a Death Dealer or Savyna become a Hunter and then it was Selene's duty to kill her.

“This part was fine with Selene so long as Savyna never discovered her Hunter powers and stayed where Selene could keep an eye on her with the help of several contacts and spies. This plan fell apart when Jon saw Savyna had great martial arts potential, this was part of her Vampire Hunter and Vampire inheritances respectively, he had no choice but to take Savyna to Connamaraia where the greatest martial arts teachers and schools have existed for thousands of years. It was then she meet a dragon and the rest you already now. Selene hates me, oh yes, because the one chance she had to take Savyna home I convinced Savyna to stay with me and my family. In my own way I love Savyna just as much as you Applejack, not just as my Sister by martial arts tradition and for that love Selene has hated me. In truth if she could she would have just killed me long ago but since my death would make Savyna sad and hate her more then she does now Selene has let me be but voices her disdain for me to Savyna every chance she gets. It's all bullshit, so much bullshit, ALL OF IT!” Dragon yelled then stormed off in a huff as he tossed anything in his way about with his magic.

“Well don't that beat all and Ah still need ta know more bout this here letter too. Well better just get answers from the source but best get ready ta kiss a little... well Ah need ta apologize a lot first.” I said aloud before hurry off to stop Dragon Feather's rampage before getting back to my mission at hand.

After catching up with Feather before he was arrest for disturbing the peace I calmed him down and sent him home then I practically ran to Savyna's house. When I made it up to the big two story mini-mansion it didn't look like anyone was home, most of the lights were off and the curtains were shut. If Savyna wasn't here then there could only be one other place she would go and that's the bar. I decided to try here first cause if Savyna was at the bar I’d have wait till she left before we could talk. I didn't want anypony finding out we had broke up or to get in a to a fight with her in public just yet. I would never hear the end of it if any of my friends found we broke up or if they found out Savyna was a half vampire. I didn't want to think of the panic Twilight would go into at hearing that bit of news, or what any of the other princesses would say or want to do when they found out too.

I slammed the huge dragon shaped door knocker a few times and waited fer an answer. After a few seconds Tank answered the door, he was wearing a pair brown hide pants and was shirtless as always.

“Hey AJ. You here for Savyna?” He asked me with a warm smile. I nodded my head in reply quickly. It seemed like he didn't know that Savyna and I had a fight or anything two weeks ago. If he and the others of the adventure group didn't know I wasn't about to say anything to change that.

“Is she here?” I asked him. Tank looked back inside the house behind him before turning back to me still smiling.

“I think so but I haven't seen her today, come in she might being in her room. I thought she was with you already, guess I was wrong.” Tank said opening the door all the way and letting me in.

It was the only second time I had been inside the large manor since it had been finished and decorated, and it was beautiful. The floor was blue marble and the overly big windows were covered with dark magenta drapes. There wasn't much furniture the last time I was here and the house didn't really look like it was being lived in. This time the whole downstairs was full furnished with antic and new furniture here and there. The whole place had signs of Rarity's influence all over it. All of the furniture had the old world king and queen look to it, like something you would find in the old palace ruins in the Everfree Forest, even though there were several pieces that were brand new and still had the plastic on them in places. Knowing how Rarity works this was just the start of her chances to this whole house but Black and the other had the bits for it and didn't seem to mind.

I walked toward the living room as the door shut behind me. I turned to see a maid closing it, she was young mare with light red coat and a gray and white mane and tail. I had never seen her before around town so she must moved here recently to work for Black and the others.

“Is Savyna here in the house Sun Flare?” Tank asked another maid, an older mare with a yellow coat and a pink, white, and light blue mane and tail, coming down the stairs with a hand full of sheets.

“Um, yes sir. Madame Savyna is in her bedroom. She hasn't left it for the past two weeks unless it's to the bar or the the train rooms in the basement, sir.” The maid informed Tank. That meant she hasn't left the house really since the fight, that made me feel worse about what happened.

“Well, I need you to show our guest to Savyna's room.” Tank told the maid as he pointed at me.

I'd guessed no one in their party knows about the fight, or I'm sure that Tank would have mentioned it. If all went well once I talked to Savyna no one would ever have to know the truth.

“Certainly sir, right this way ma'am.” The maid said as she handed the laundry to another maid.

She waited on the top landing of the stairs for me to follow, I followed the maid up the grand staircase that branched left then right at the top. The maid turned left and head up the left set of stair that led into a hallway. The stairs and hall were covered in maroon carpet with floral patterns, another thing chosen by Rarity no doubt. I looked around as the maid led me down the dimly lit hallway, it was lit by candles and small lamps in brass holders. There were a few other doors that lined the hall but they were all closed. There were small end tables here and there decorated with flowers and paintings of ponies and other races in battle scenes and other historic places around the world hanging on both sides of the walls. The maid continued down the hall until we were at the end of the hallway where one door was there alone. The maid walked up and knocked on the door to wait for a reply, but didn't get one. I was worried that Savyna was at the bar and if she was she was most likely drunk and if she was drunk then a fight was unavoidable if I tried to apologize to her now.

The maid knocked again.“Um, Miss Savyna?” The maid asked. After a few more seconds of silence I heard Savyna's voice depressed and dry on the other side of the door. It felt so good ta hear her voice again, it felt like it's been ages since I had seen or heard her even if she sound like she had given up on the world.

“It's open.” Savyna replied. The maid nodded to me then slowly and cautiously slid the door open and stepped aside to let me in. I walked in and the maid shut the door behind me and I heard her disappear down the hall in soft hoof falls. The floor in Savyna's was covered in the same carpet as the hall and there was a huge bay window on the other side of her bed. The door that led to the bathroom had a sign on it that read W.C. and the door that was for her closet door had been replaced. She most likely broke it after here our fight. I really hoped I could fix this.

The room was only lit by a few candles on her dresser and a dim lamp beside her bed. The bay window's light was hid by dark drapes and over her bed hung a large dark red canopy blocking most of the light that came to her during the day or night. Most of the furniture in the room looked really old and similar to the furniture in Dragon Feather house, with the same beautiful carvings. She had a few statues of some really old Buddhas all over the room and a book case the was new that had a lot of old books on it on varies topics. Savyna was laying on the bed with her arms over her face and eyes closed. Now that I had time to look over the house it was overly huge, I could now see why she would rather be at my house.

“The dirty towels are in the bathroom hamper.” Savyna said after a while in a voice that almost didn't sound like her, it was a little deeper. She had become sadness incarnate and it was all my fault.

“Savyna...” I said almost in a whisper as I moved closed to the bed, she moved her arms and sat up after she heard my voice. She looked at me then blinked several times before staring at me for several minutes completely surprised that I was there. In the few minutes of quiet we just stared at each other, my eyes twinkling as I tried to hold in the tears.

“What are you doing here?” Savyna asked, her tone flat and lifeless as she stared me with her eyes just as lifeless as her tone for a moment before the dropped to the bed. She looked a little thinner and worn out from lack of sleep.“I thought I told you this was over.” After a moment she moved on the bed to make herself a bit more presentable.

“Ah know that, but Savyna can we please talk?” I asked almost in a pleading voice. Savyna kept her glance on the bed with a serious look on her face, she looked as if she wasn't even considering what I was asking her.

“About what? What is there left to say? You said this was a mistake so why should we talk about it?” Savyna asked me monotonously. I sighed then stepped in her room a little more. “Stop right there don't come any closer. Remember I'm a monster I my just forget what you meant to me and bite you.” She told me with a chilled tone and malicious hint of a smile. This stopped me and my tracks as my heart tore in two as her reminder of my carelessness and fear.

“Ah'm sorry... Ah know Ah overreacted, can we please talk about this? And ya said us being together was a mistake too. We both said things in the heat of anger, so Savyna please talk to me? Ah want ta know if we can work this out?” I asked her my words ringing with sincerity of my heart.

“Overreacted? You really think I'm mad at you because you overreacted? You silly, stubborn mare if only... if it only were really that simple. You fucking ripped my heart out AJ and now you come here and expect me to accept your apology just like that? Why should I trust you, and further more why should I even listen to anything you have to say? After all I'm a monster and you know monsters don't have or need empathy nor sympathy.” Savyna shot back at me, I felt my heart tear farther and a knot rise in my throat as I fought back tears even harder. She was right about me, I had no right to ask her to forgive me but I still had to try.

“Savyna Ah didn't come here ta argue with ya. Ah came ta let ya know how bad Ah felt bout what Ah did and ta make things right. Please don't be like that ta me sugarcube, Ah can't live without you and Ah don't wanna start now. Not after finding the one person in this whole world the makes me feel whole. What Ah did was inexcusable but what you did was just as bad. Ah'm sorry and want ta work this out.” I was truthful in my endeavor to win Savyna back, that fact was made evident by the tears rolled down my cheeks. I missed her so damn much, at the rate things we're going I wasn't so sure if we would have gotten back together. If I didn't convince her soon of my intent at being genuine with her about my feelings we were going to be in the middle of another bad argument.

“You really think some nice words of apology and some tears are going to fix this? You really think I give a damn about this or you right now? I've lost lovers before this is no different and they all said the same thing. I hear words Applejack, but no real apology.” Savyna words were blunt but to the point as she stared at me with an expression of unbroken anger on her face.

“How many times do I have ta say Ah'm sorry before ya see that Ah mean it?” I asked her as more tears rolled down my cheeks. “Ah lost mah way because Ah was afraid of what you were, afraid of what it meant but fer the wrong reasons. Ah was afraid because of what Ah didn't know and you were afraid of me not acceptin' the truth bout who ya are in part. In all fairness ya never gave me the chance or the choice to decide if Ah still want what we had, what we could still have if'n Ah knew the truth. Well Ah know the truth now and Ah still love you but ya have ta let me in.”

“Let you in? How can I do that?You really hurt me... You called me a monster Applejack. That's the one thing I didn't want you to see me as. That's all I've felt like all most of my life and I was hoping you would change that for me.” Savyna replied her voice cracking as it was full of hurt, deep hurt from years of pain and regret. “I know I should have told you the truth from the beginning but you can't understand the pain and hurt in knowing that the people you love, the children your age, many of the adults, are afraid of you or the fear that comes from having a dark nature hiding inside of you that you never knew was there. I love you too and that's why I didn't want to tell you... Why I couldn't tell you. I didn't want to lose you.” Savyna told me with her head still down tears running down her face like little rivers.

After a bit she scooted over so I could come and sit on the edge of the beside her. When I seen her move over to make room for me I walked over and sat down next to her. Her head was still down her eyes closed as tears streamed down her cheeks. I sat down and for a while we sat there not speaking until I hugged her and we both cried it out, we both let out all the pain and sadness that had been the divide holding us apart for two long agonizing weeks.

“Ah know...Ah... Ah didn't mean that Savyna, it's just... Ah say a lot of things when Ah'm sad or hurt and it was unfair fer me ta say those hurtful things ta you the way Ah did.. Ah know Ah was never supposed ta find out the way Ah did but Ah'm not afraid of you and yer not a monster, yer the woman Ah love.” I told Savyna as I held her hands.

“But a monster is what I will be seen as most of my life. I know what happens to monsters, that hide in a pleasing or seemingly innocent form at first, here in Equestria. I know about the fights with Nightmare Moon, what happened with Queen Chrysalis and the changelings at Prince Shining Armor and Princess Cadence's wedding, how Zecora was treated at first, what happened to King Sombra when the Crystal Empire returned and about Discord being imprisoned in stone twice by Princess Celestia, and Luna then by you and the other Elements of Harmony. I know what happens to those are seen to have or are of a dark nature that threat the peace in Equestria and I'm potential the worse yet, given the right circumstances. This why I lied, why I dared not open myself up to anyone fully. I don't want to lose you either Apple Jack because you are the one person that doesn't make feel like I have to be in control, to be guard all the time...” Savyna whispered.

I could see the fear in her eyes and it registered to me that she know about all of the times me and the other girls had face evil in it's many forms. I knew my friends well and the all of the princesses and if Fluttershy could show us the good in Discord's heart then I could do the same for Savyna. I wouldn't let anypony or thing hurt her not even her own fears and I was determined to show her that.

“It would never happen... Ah would never let that happen... Ah would face down all of Equestria to protect you. Ah know yer heart and felt yer love. Ah will defend it and make anypony the would say otherwise see the light. Yer not evil, yer not a monster, yer someone with a dark past that wants to start over. If Discord can be a force of chaotic good after finding friendship in Fluttershy then you deserve the same chance as him.” I told her proudly as I stoked her hand.

“Apple Jack... why... you are a silly and stubborn mare you know that?”

“Ah now that so does all mah friends and now the woman Ah love knows it too. Ah'm a silly stubborn, and at times a really stupid mare but Ah know to own up to my mistakes and say Ah'm sorry. Ah'm really sorry Sugarcube, so can ya forgive me, because Savyna Ah don't wanna lose you either. Ah know we can't just pretend this didn't happen but... can we, ya know start over?” I asked after I apologized to her. She looked ahead of herself at the drapes that covered the window, her eyes were still wet and glistening with tears as she held my hands tightly.

“Yeah well for you to not wanna lose me you sure did a good job of it. How do I know you won't do this again if we do get back together?” Savyna asked me turning her head and looking deep in to my eyes.

“Ah know and Ah didn't mean ta like Ah said I'm sorry, and Ah know it's hard ta trust me now after what Ah said and did but please give me another chance. Ah've really missed you Savyna and Ah walked all the way over here ta tell ya how sorry Ah am and ta try and fix things between us because mah life has been a living hell since that fight and Ah know yers has too.” I explained to her, she put her glance back down on the bed glumly.

“Your right AJ, I mean I purposely hurt and kill people for crying out loud! I'm a monster, you had a right to say it AJ, all of it.” Savyna replied darkly to my chagrin.

“No yer not Savyna! Ah never wanna hear you say that again! Look, Savyna yer not a monster. Yer the bravest, most honorable woman Ah have ever met!” I yelled at her as I held her hands tightly. “Ah was wrong fer sayin' that, you were just tryin' ta protect me and Ah got scared and turned on ya. That wasn't right of me, we should have talked it out instead of yelling at one another.” I told her. She stared at me in confusion, I could see and feel the confusion spilling off of Savyna but she needed to know that I had changed and I meant to get her back.

“Wh- where did that come from?” Savyna asked me still trying to figure out were my new found conviction had come from.

“Ah just came from the hospital were Scootaloo is with a broken arm after a fight with Dragon Song. Dragon Song thought of herself as a monster too and so did mah little sister. It was in that moment I realized what Ah had done ta you. Like Apple Bloom Ah was afraid of you because Ah didn't understand what you had gone thru, Ah didn't know ya already felt that way inside and Ah didn't take the time ta let you open up and tell me ya felt that way. Yer not a monster no matter what you may have done in the past because a true monster doesn't feel remorse of sorrow over what they have done no matter how wrong or evil it was.”

“Apple Jack I never... I didn't know that you would be this understanding about all of this so I wasn't ever going to tell you. In truth I was going to make something up the next time you asked me so I wouldn't have to let you know about the darkness hiding inside of me.” she said softly before her glance fell down to the bed spread before she spoke again. “My mother didn't tell me I was a vampire of an ancient and powerful clan until after I had my outburst. Then... “ Savyna cut herself off. I came closer to her as I squeezed her hands quickly.

“Baby, you don't have ta tell me... Ah know it's hard fer you.” I did want her to go on since it hurt so much. She looked down and sniffled a little. “Ah don't need you to tell me right now Feather told me plenty about Selene and her Sire Viktor the rest can wait. Lets heal yer heart and soul first Ah don't want ta know if it will keep on hurting you like this.”

“She sent someone to bite me, to mark me so she could... track me and … so everyone knew where I was from... “ Savyna shuddered. I wrapped my arms around her and held her tightly. She sniffled again then shook her head. “That curse... it has haunted me for as long as I could remember. It ruins my life... my mother is a Death Dealer... she kills and... I don't... unless I have to...” Savyna stopped. A few tears ran down her face. I lifted her face up to me and put my nose to hers.

“Savyna, it's okay. Ah wanna help you, Ah wanna help you get through this. Let me be the one to help carry yer burden.” I said to Savyna closing my eyes and leaning in and kissing her. Savyna sat there as I gently kissed her on the lips then when I was done I looked and seen she had her eyes open and had been staring at me the whole time, I felt very disappointed by that for some reason.

“Savyna, please kiss me?” I asked softly keeping my forehead to hers. I poked my lips out and made a loud kissing sound, Savyna pulled away and laughed.”So can I have a kiss?” I asked her as I lightly pressed my forehead back to hers. She stopped smiling and I watched her close her eyes and lean in closer as she grabbed my waist and kissed me. I reached my hands up and placed them on her shoulder and neck. Our kiss lasted a few minutes then Savyna broke free.

“I'm sorry AJ, I'm sorry for not telling you. That wasn't right, I should've trusted you and told you from the start. Can you forgive me?” Savyna asked me as she rubbing her face against my hand.

“It's okay sweetie, like Ah said Ah overreacted but Ah forgive you.” I said to her then gave her another light kiss.

“ I haven't really slept since the fight and I've really missed you. Can you stay with me tonight, please?” Savyna asked me softly.

“Of course Ah will sugarcube. Ah've really missed you too.” I replied back. “Ah just need ta send word back ta the house Ah won't be home fer awhile.”

“I have a maid send a note to your house later.” Savyna said softly as she pulled me in to a tight hug and inhale my scent deeply.

“Ah've missed this so much. Ah've miss wakin' up next ta ya, cookin' fer ya and eatin' with ya.” I told her and I snuggled in close to her then my stomach growled rather loud.

“Speaking of food, are you hungry?” Savyna asked me. “The chef has most likely finished cooking. And I'm not really hungry but if you are I can come down and sit with you... if you want. I haven’t been eating all that much lately and if I do it's in here alone. I didn't want the others to know we had broke up. I told them we were taking a break so I could get some training in before our next job.”

“Yeah, Ah am a little hungry and Ah would love if you came and sat with me while Ah ate. Ah would like it more if you ate with me but if yer not hungry Ah won't force ya to eat.” I said back to her softly with an embarrassed smile, Savyna smiled and got up. I held Savyna's hand behind her as she led me back downstairs and to the dinning room. She pulled me out a chair and sat beside me, Tank and Black were on the other side joking about something. A few minutes later the chef and a few others brought out platters and sat them in front of Black, Tank, and Savyna told the server to have hers given to me. After I ate a few helpings of the delicious vegetable stew and bread with a side of salad we sat talking with Black and Tank while we all ate some rather delicious cake and drank jasmine tea for dessert. Savyna even had a piece of cake to my four pieces.

After dinner Savyna and I went back to her bedroom to spend some time together. We stripped to our bras and panties and cuddled in her bed. Savyna rubbed my stomach gently as I laid on my back, she laid on her side beside me and rubbed her face up against mine.

“AJ, you make me so happy... I never wanna lose you. I'm so in love with you.” Savyna said happily in a whisper, I felt myself get weak after hearing that.

“Ah'm so glad Ah met you Savyna.” I whispered back to her, this moment made me feel so cheesy but I loved it. This is the first time I had ever seen Savyna so loving, other that week we spent rutting each other brains out, I mean she was and is always very loving but she had never really enjoyed cuddling with me this much, a few time I had asked her to cuddle with me she complained to me about how she thought it was too sappy and she wasn't the “Lovey Dovey” type. I have to admit though for her not to be a touchy feeling type person she sure knew how to make me feel down right good and knew when, how, and where to touch me to make me melt. She's a lot more loving then she likes to led on, I think she just likes to put on the tough girl act to show off but whenever were alone it's like she's a completely different woman. It kind of reminds me of Rainbow Dash when she acts like that.

She rubbed up against my face again before she started kissing me. She rubbed my stomach gently as we passionately made out and it was an amazing feeling that I had missed in the days she was gone. I missed her touch and her body, that made me want her desperately. I grabbed Savyna's hand from my stomach and moved it to my breast and looked at Savyna.

“Make love ta me Savyna, touch me.” I whispered to her. Savyna smiled then continued to kiss me then I felt her hands reach around me and unstrap my bra. A few seconds later it slid down my arms then Savyna grabbed it and tossed it off the bed. She groped my breast gently as she kissed me, then she stopped and looked down at my panties. After a few seconds she slid her hand in my panties and slid them mid-way down my thighs before she started massaging my mound, the lips of my sex, and thighs. My sex drive drove higher making me want her more, it felt like I was in heat again. Savyna started kissing me again as she massaged, as soon as her fingers were lined up with the middle of my lips I bucked my hips up making her fingers slid in. Savyna just kept kissing me then drove her fingers deeper inside of me. She teased me with slow strokes, making me moan into her kisses then she stopped suddenly.

W-w-why... did ya stop sugarcube?” I asked in a shaky voice.

“There's something I want to show you, I think you'll like it.” Savyna said getting up from the bed. “You know AJ, technically your about to be the first person I have ever slept with in this bed.” She went over to a stand on the other side of the room and grabbed a bracelet from a drawer and came and laid back beside me.

“What do you mean technically?” I asked her, I wouldn't want to have sex with her on a bed where some other mare or on an off chance some stallion already had her. Then it hit me she may have taken somepony else to bed while we were broken up and it was pissing me off. I know we weren't together and if she had it's none of my business but its still a little frustrating to know somepony else may have been with my beloved Savyna with out my permission.

“Well... “ She looked down and blushed shyly. I smiled at the cute sight, it's been a while since I've seen her act shy like that. “I was the first I've slept with in this bed... “ She said to me giggling shyly, I smiled at her then gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

“Awww... yer embarrassed about tellin' me you were cloppin'.” I said giggling, that made her blush even harder. “I love you...” I laughed. “Actually Ah think It would be pretty sexy ta watch you... ya know playin' with yerself.”I said tracing a line on her stomach, I saw goosebumps form over her skin were my finger had been as she continued to blush at what I said.

“Actually I think it would be kind of embarrassing for you to watch... “ Savyna said shyly.

“How would it be embarrassin'? You can start it and... Ah'll finish it.” I said smiling.

“It just is, I mean why do you want to watch that?” She asked me still blushing.

“Cause Ah love that cute face ya make when yer bein' all girly like.” I told her then I looked down at her bracelet and seen a small red gem in the middle with a small button under it. “What does that bracelet do exactly?” I asked her confused.

Savyna didn't answer she just pressed down on a button below the gem and the red gem lit up and started glowing. Savyna started kissing me again ignoring my question and protests to have it answered as she reached down and took my panties off. She slipped her fingers back inside of me making my moans in between her kisses get louder.

“You like it when I touch you here AJ?” Savyna asked humming to herself as she changed the subject.

“Yes Savyna... mmm that feels good... but ...” I moaned to her. But before I could finish my thought she started kissing me again. After a few kisses Savyna moved down then started sucking and licking on my nipples for a bit as she sped up the strokes of her fingers. After she had me moaning and asking her to fuck me harder, my earlier thoughts and questions were lost to pure pleasure, I heard a huge ripping sound. Savyna looked down, I followed her glance to her panties where a huge stallions pride swelled up and ripped clean through her panties. I gasped in shock.

“Umm... Savyna... “ I stuttered still shocked by what I saw between her legs.

“That's what the bracelet does, it gives me the right equipment so we don't need toys all the time. It's just like the other toy you bought, I can feel everything like it's mine because it is.” Savyna explained to me. “And an add bonus if we chose to have children later on I will be their father as this thing is just like the real thing in every way.”

She started kissing me as she discarded the shreds of her panties. I unstrapped her bra and tossed it across the room before I sucked on her nipples as I stroked her tool. I felt it get bigger in my gripped as Savyna moaned. I looked down to see how much it grew and saw it stand straight up and a few inches bigger.

“Savyna, your fuckin' huge babe.” I said looking down in shock. “It's at least what, 20 inches?” I asked keepin' my glance on the huge cock in my hand.

“26 and if you keep that up maybe bigger.” Savyna answered then lightly grabbed my chin as she tilt my head so I was staring in to her eyes before she kissed me again, our kiss lasted for what seemed like forever.

“Hey lay down and spread your legs.” Savyna commanded in a soft tone. I did as she commanded lost to the thick musk of my mare-stallion scent and spread my legs as she slid between them going down so she had enough space for her head. I felt her fingers slid in me and start stroking slowly as her tongue light grazed my clit several times, I let out several low moans.

“AJ your so wet.” Savyna said. She moved her fingers and started licking harder in earnest. She only licked enough to make me wetter so I could take her member with little trouble but I had my doubts on that, it was fucking huge! she got up and laid kisses along the hollow of my neck before moving up to kiss me. I felt her stallion's pride hover over me as she kissed and groped my breasts making my nipples rock hard. She looked down at me with a hungry look in her eyes as she grabbed her erect cock. Slowly she brought it towards my quivering marehood with every intention of spearing me deeply with that meaty rod. Before she could I scooted up the bed a little more away from her as my earlier thought returning to me.

“Uh-uh,” I said softly putting my finger to her lips. “In order to receive ya have ta give first... Ah told ya what Ah want...” I kissed her lips softly then waited.

“Seriously? Your really gonna do this to me AJ?” Savyna pouted as frown crossed her face. I smiled then pushed her up so I could sit up fully.

“Sure Ah am.” I said with a evil grin. Savyna sighed loudly then got up and sat beside me pouting still. I sat up and crossed my legs as I watched her curiously for a bit. “Ya ain't gonna try and fight this time sugarcube?” I asked still smiling at her.

She gave me a sarcastic laugh then she started blushing awful hard before she looked down at her erect member between her legs then back to me. “Your not going to take no for and answer and will be super stubborn about this till you get your way right?” She asked still quite red in the face.

I just nodded my head yes as my smile grew wider at her rather girly reaction to my demands. It's not often I'm forceful with Savyna but tonight I felt like leading the love making and I really did want to see her clop in front of me. For some reason I still can't explain I felt it would help us bond a bit better.

“Okay... but just this once I'll do it for you, but if I do this again you have to do it also.” Savyna said in a shaky very girly voice with her face as red as a tomato. I was surprised she could blush and still have a hard-on at the same time.

She slowly started stroking her cock from base to tip giving a little massage to the tip before sliding her hand back down again. After a few seconds of this she started moaning quietly trying to muffle them since I was watching. Soon her strokes sped up as her moans got louder, I felt myself getting wetter and wetter at the sight of her stroking her tool as pre cum gushed out the tip. After I nearly came for the second time watching this scene I crawled in between her legs and stopped her hand at the base and engulfed two thirds of her member in my mouth. She let out a loud gasp at the feeling and bucked up in to my mouth but instantly stopped herself when she heard me gag.

“Oh god... sorry AJ... that just feels so damn good... “ She apologized in the middle of a deep breathe. “This one a lot more sensitive then the toy you bought.”

I slowly started bobbing my head and shortly after third full bob of my head there was three thick spurts of cum rushed down my throat into my stomach. I held still as Savyna moaned and convulsed on the bed as her cock pumped my belly full of thick creamy horse milk. It was a minute or so later when Savyna lay still on the bed breathing hard and her cock had stopped twitching in my mouth did I pull back and swallow what was left.

“Well that was faster than usual.” I commented after licking up the little bit the dribbled out the corner of my mouth.

“Yeah well I haven't really had any stimulation since the fight... that's why I'm a little quick and why it's so thick right now.” She explained to me. “It's all your fault you know.”

“Ah know, Ah promise I won't ever leave with stimulation ever again.” I told her as I stroked her still hard cock. She started moaning again as she was about to cum for the second time. This thing was super sensitive, but why? Where and when did she get it?

“Savyna where and when did you get this bracelet?” I asked and I began to lick her from base to tip.

“I-I-I....I had F-f-feather m-make it f-f-fffor us. It was after we first got together I told him I was wittth... oh god the feels so good.... more, suck my cock more....” Savyna whined as she gripped the sheets hard as I took her to the root.

It was a little hard at first to get her all the way down my throat but after I relax a little and got use the thickness of her cock it was rather easy to deep throat her and lick her rather sized balls at the same time. All of this had Savyna begging me to make her cum and swallow it all. Of course I was going to swallow it as Rarity would say, A real lady never spits. After having some fun I pulled Savyna from my throat with a loud wet pop before I started stroking her slowly.

“You told him you were with a mare and he made that for you?” I asked still wanting to know everything about the bracelet.

“No, I told him that we had started dating and he said that if it got serious and we want to go farther then dating that I would need away to... you know be the “stallion” in the relationship if you wanted or needed me to. I told him toys would work at first but he was right and if our relationship got serious I wold need a way to be a proper stallion to you. Feather told me he could make me something like a bracelet that would do the job, make me into a real stallion in the right place for you but he would have to test it on a female first. Since he had to make sure the spell he would use to make it work would still function properly when place in an item to activate it. He told he had test subject lined up all ready and once the initial testing was done he would deliver the bracelet to me. I found out two days later that he had Twilight Sparkle test the bracelet out on him. He also told me I should keep him updated on the long term effects and notify him of any problems or concerns we had after using it. I've had it since the start of our relationship but forgot about it until I was tearing this place up after our fight and found it.” Savyna told me thru little pants and moans

“Wait a minute, Twilight used this here bracelet and FUCKED Feather with IT?!” I asked in surprise and my hands came off of Savyna's shaft. I was so shocked to hear that Feather taking it in the tailhole more then hearing Twilight was the one giving it to him. “Wait a sec, when did that happen? Why did that happen? How many times has that happened?”

“Most Connamaraian ponies are bisexual by nature, AJ. In fact Connamaraians are taught at young age that physical form and gender should have no bearing on how you feel about a person. If you love them then love them for who they are inside and not just outside. Now this doesn't mean physical appearance doesn't play a factor in attraction, it does, its just not the only important factor. I watched Feather bring home many a mare or stallion home for the night when were teenagers. In fact one time I had bit of a crush on one of his stallionfriends back then that led to a fight between the two of us that lasted a week.” Savyna explained quickly. “To answer the when and how many times part it was twice that I know of. Once with the futa spell by itself when they first started dating and the second time when they tested the bracelet.”

“TWICE? Really twice?!” I asked in disbelief.

Yeah,if I remember correctly the first time with the futa spell was a few days after they started seeing each other some time earlier this year. I remember Feather mentioning to me in one of his letters that he had meet a mare in the new town he had moved to and she was rather pretty alicorn with pretty high title. He said they had only been dating a week before Twilight suggested they try being intimate after she heard about how chi can intensify orgasm more then magic could. Naturally Twilight wanted to know first hand how that felt and worked for research proposes and Feather was all to obliging in the matter. Since then they have had a being meeting regularly for late night play time.”

“Well don't that beat all. No wonder she's been duckin' us fer the last few months fer a few days at a time. Ah thought her and Feather had only been datin' fer a few weeks and its really been a few months. Ah wonder why she kept it secret until that crazy party we all had?”

“You remember how good my Five Chi Forms of Sexual Pleasure felt when I use it on you the first night we had sex. Do you really think Twilight was really going to tell you girls about good that type of orgasm feels?” Savyna asked me with a wicked grin. “Hell when Rainbow Dash sees me on the street she blushes hard and takes off in the opposite direction and she only got to watch what it did to you. Hell I'm surprised she hasn't asked you to let us play together again. I'm okay with if you are but it just can't be an all the time thing since I'm yours after all.”

I blushed as the vague but powerful memories of that drunken hazy night replayed in my mind. I also remember the intense pleasure from that night too. I could see why Twilight would not be forth coming with even a few minor details about something that felt that good without rest of not being a little curious and asking to try it out ourselves. I may be a mare and having herd is nice but not when I have share Savyna all the time and lets face it with sex this good a mare gets addicted pretty fast. I had even thought about maybe having another night with Rainbow Dash involved since the first time we did it was while we were all very drunk. After hearing that RD avoids Savyna because of that night would make hanging out with her hard in the near future so I would have to have a talk with Rainbow Dash since Savyna seemed okay with having her join us some times.

“Ah'll remember that and Ah'm surprised ya would be okay with us havin' another mare in bed with us. Do ya have fantasies about sharin' me? Or are ya just mare hungry now?” I asked teasing a bit but still a little curious to why she would agree to that if I was okay with it first.

“I'm not stupid AJ, I grew up with ponies and have friends that live the herd life style. I understand it's a hold over from when ponies were just wild ponies thousands upon thousands of years ago and it does have it advantages. I mean if you want us to have a herd I'm not opposed to the idea it would just take me some time before I would be completely comfortable with it. I mean that's a lot of mares for me to be dealing with especially as you all figure who ranks were and who gets my attention when. So if you would like to I don't know.... experiment with having another mare you trust come join from time to time I won't say no.” Savyna told me with a red cheeks and a quiver in her voice.

“Ah keep forgettin' you grew with Feather so ya have been exposed ta a lot of cultural aspects of pony society. Ah'll keep that in mind fer late just as long as you don't back out at the last minute.” I told her with a smile. “Well that was a bit of a shock but still not as shockin' ta know that Feather likes being the mare some time.”

“ Like I said be for most Connamaraians are bisexual so what should be the shock is, or is the shock to me at least is that it was your friend Twilight made him her 'little mare' both nights and mostly likely on a regular basis now. I wasn't surprised he let her or I should say lets her do it since he's into that kind of kinky sex, but I was surprised she agreed to do it. I mean your friend is a princess and she seems like the less adventurous type of mare. I would expect it from Pinkie Pie and maybe Rarity if she was in a mood, but not Twilight.”

“We'll then ya need ta get know Twi a bit better then. When it comes ta something magical and learnin' about magic she'll be all over it no matter how weird or perverted it may get in the long run. In fact when it comes ta magic she can be a really big pervert. Heck, she asked a few of us ta help her test out some spells she found in Star Swirled the Bearded's private collection back in the royal library. Some of them were pretty kinky from what Pinkie Pie, Lyra and Bon Bon said a week after they all recovered from their weekend helping Twilight test them all out. Twilight only spoke about it briefly but Ah could tell she enjoyed fuckin' Pinkie, Lyra and Bon Bon all weekend long but really wanted all of her core friends there so could get a taste of all of our plots. So Ah'm not surprised that Twi would agree ta it. She probably fucked Feather bowlegged that night too.” I told Savyna as I thought back to that day and wondered if I really should have gone to help instead of turning her down because was just too weird sounding for me. Would I have end up with Twilight instead of Savyna? Or would Twilight and I both be sharing Dragon Feather right now?

“Well, knowing what I know about Feather I have no doubt she left him rather sore the next morning and he probably had her uses a lot of those spells you mentioned on him that night they tested the bracelet. He didn't give me any major details but Feather did said that Twilight could be rather forceful when she needs to and wants to be. She made him call her Principal Sparkle most of the night.” Savyna said with a laugh.

“Not surprised by that. That mare is really in the whole school thing. Once fer a Nightmare Night she dressed as a naughty high school filly, with her mane in pigtails, white blouse, short plaid skirt, thong, and slutty heels. She want as far as ta have Rarity do her make-up ta really make her look the part. It was rather shockin' and rather hot. My brother almost got his ass kicked by Cheerilee for starin' at Twi's plot one too many times that night.”

“Wow, just learned some about your brother that surprised me but that can wait til later. So now you know about the bracelet can we pick up were we left off. please?” Savyna asked before stoking my cheek softly as she gave the puppy dog eyes then point back to still hard cock.

I nodded quickly and went back to licking and stroking her cock again before long I had her ready to cum again. That load I let her squirt all over me since it had been a while and I wanted her scent to mark me as hers again. After a few seconds of calming down Savyna started kissing me then rolled me over so she was on top of me. She kissed me hard as I felt her cock hover over me twitching then she reached down and grabbed it before she pressed it in me. She got about one third of the huge cock in me before I realized I was bitin' off more than I could chew.

“Oh god, Savyna... “ I said gripping her tighter.

“What's wrong baby, did I hurt you?” Savyna asked me stopping herself from putting any more in.

“No it's just that yer really big.” I replied.

“I know your not used to taking something like this but will you try? Besides-” She stopped and kissed me before finishing. “I think it would be really sexy to see you take all of me.” Savyna said smiling at me. I gave in to her as always on account of her giving me her cutie face and I really did want all of her monster cock in me even though I knew it would hurt later.

I smiled to her and nodded my head letting her know I was willing to try. Savyna didn't say anything she just closed her eyes and held me gently. A few seconds I felt her thrust her hips forward and she slid a inch or so further into me. I bit my lip as I endured the pain of being stretched wider then I ever had before. Savyna had to be about two or more inches thicker then the magical toy, plus I had been in heat at the time so my estrus had help me endure the stretching.

Savyna stopped and looked down at me. She looked in my eyes as if knowing what was going through my mind. She stopped me from biting my lip by kissing me. “Hey let's change positions to the mounting one, that should make it easier for you.”

I nodded then moaned loudly as she withdrew her hard rod from my wet tunnel. After catching my breath I rolled over and raise my plot in the air a bit for Savyna then I looked over my shoulder at her. Savyna was rubbing the head of her drooling cock against my quivering flower before she press forward. My cries of pain and pleasure were muffled by the pillow and blanket as I felt her slid half of her thick tool deep into me. My wet contracting tunnel accept more of her in this position but there was that full stretched feeling as more of her cock slipped in to fill me up.

After what seemed like eternity but was only a minute Savyna finally bottomed out inside of me. It felt like she was somewhere in my chest I was so full, the feeling of so much stallion meat inside of me was painful and pleasurable all at once. It was like dying and being alive at the same time, you feel pain but there is also the pleasure that's just as intense right beside it and the two opposed feelings fed into each other.

The whole time I lay there moaning and whimpering at my full feeling Savyna stayed still trying to hold back from filling my belly full of thick seed. The pressure on her end of things was even greater then the last time we had made love two weeks ago. She panted and whimpered at the hot, tight, squeezing my pussy was giving as it tried to wring the life seed out of her. Soon the pain drifted off and I felt nothing but hair pulling, nail biting pleasure. Pulling me closer to her caused Savyna's huge cock slid the rest of the way in me until the head was kissing my tightly closed cervix. I let out a loud moan at the feeling of her inside and the pressure she was putting on the entrance to my womb. Having never taken anything as huge as the cock in me now I was amazed at how good it felt being so full. And that feeling drove me bonkers for more. I would thrust back into each of Savyna's forward thrusts just to have the delicious pressure on my sensitive cervix, it just felt so good.

I considered myself to be a bit experienced mare when it came to sex and how my body works but I've never felt anything as intense as the feeling of Savyna's cock striking my cervix. Every thrust made the flared head ram in to it with some force and each strike drove my arousal higher and higher. After Savyna pace became frenzied I was worried I would cum and pass out when she finally pushed her cock into my womb and fuck me even deeper then before.

“Savynnnaaaa... that feels so gooood... fuck me harder... “ I moaned to Savyna as I pressed my face against the pillow trying to muffle my loud shouts of joy. Savyna sped her pace up moaning and grunting with each thrust. I felt her pound me harder than she ever had, this was the best make-up sex I ever had and I was loving every minute of it. Savyna pounded me as hard as she could for hours on end driving me to climax after climax.

It was near three in the morning when we both where too tired and sore to continue, by the time we were done we had been in 6 different positions and I had swallowed several loads of her salty sweet stallion milk. As Rarity would say a lady never spits, and as I thought that I wonder if Rarity did swallow or not? I made a quick mental know to ask her next time our little club got together. We both laid there in her damp bed hold each other softly covered in sweat and each other love fluids before I drifted off in to a restful sleep, it was the best sleep I had in the days since the fight.

When I woke up hours later it was hard to judge what time it was cause I couldn't see outside since the curtain were still closed and the room was dark, the last of the candles we lit last night had burned out. Across from me I looked at Savyna soundlessly sleeping, her arms still around me and her breasts motioning up and down from her slow and gentle breathes. After laying there and watching her sleep for a few brief minutes I felt a growing dull pain in my stomach and bladder, quickly I realizing that I had been holding my pee in all night and I need to go. Since I so worn out and slept so deeply last night I didn't get up and pee when I needed to, so I got up and quickly shuffled to the bathroom.

I didn't bother closing the door since it was only me and Savyna in the room. I breathed a sigh of relief as I sat down on the slightly cool seat and felt my pee trickle out into the toilet with a soft patterned splashing. It's a good thing Savyna has a bathroom right here in her room or I would have had a mess to clean up and Savyna would be pissed. I giggled at the little pun of Savyna being pissed because I had pissed the bed. It was also funny because I hadn't wet the bed since I was a little filly and was still potty training at the time.

After I finished releasing my bladder's contents, which was a lot and I hadn't had much to drink in the last few days but I was still peeing a lot, I cleaned up a bit then wondered back in to the room to the window. I opened the curtains a little to let in the sun light, it was late morning and from the how fast the window fogged up from my breath it was getting close to the time for the Running of the Leaves again. I couldn't believe that it had only been a little over a month and half since Savyna and I had meet and since then I had changed, grown to become a whole new Applejack, to being a much happier mare.

“Ah can't believe how much Ah've changed, Ah never would have ever guessed Ah would be this comfortable and happy with mahself lovin' another woman.” I said softly as I turn to stare at a peacefully sleeping Savyna. Thankfully she has slept quietly thru the night. I wondered about her not sleeping when we were apart, if it was because I was gone or her own nightmares, or both?

“So you see yourself differently now, how so? How is that Applejack when you are the same now as you are in our time. Tell me how are you different?”A deep male voice asked me from out of no where.

I turned around looking for the source of the voice when the room began to grow black, the light from the window sucked up by black mist, everything falling into shadows. Slowly across the floor the darkness crept swallowing up everything in its path until it made it as far as the bed. The shadows left the bed and a foot of space on all side of it alone before continuing to eat up the rest of the room. The living darkness moved all around me until it was on all sides of me leaving a two foot wide circle of space that I stood on. All around me was inky blackness, the only light come from me and the bed were Savyna slept soundly, blissfully unaware of the danger around us. Strangely I could see that I was in danger with a thick inky blackness surrounding me but I felt safe, as if the darkness was familiar to me, close to me, something that has been with me and would be with me in the future. It was strange and terrifying yet peaceful and comforting at the same time.

“W-w-what are ya? Where have ya taken me and Savyna? What do ya want with us?” I asked to the voice as I looked for some movement from or in the darkness.

“Applejack, a mare of the Apple Family, The Element of Honesty, who knows herself, who believes in herself, tell us how art thou different from the mare we know?” The voice spoke again.

“Who are you? How do ya'll know me and so much bout me?” I asked as I turned around looking for the source of the voice. “Ah aint answerin' a single question until ya show yerself and can promise me that ya won't hurt me or Savyna.” I yelled in to the darkness.

No sooner had I done that did three swirling white lights appear in the black abyss and moved quickly toward me. As soon as the three lights come in to being the pendant that Savyna had given me to hide my presence from her mother began to glow with soft golden light. It was still around my neck since I hadn't taken it off since she put it on me. I held it up and stared at it for a second as it had felt warm on my coat. As soon as I looked at the strange stone the lights moving toward me stopped when they were mere feet away from me. The three large balls of shifting white light then changed shape become more fluid moving toward solid as they solidified into three strange looking dragons.

The first was a female dragon, she was the cross between a red dragon and a swan. Her body was rather small for a dragon as she was only a mere eight feet in height from head to talon but she was the longest of the three, from head to tail she had to be a good twenty feet. Her body was covered in solid ivory white colored scales with a softer silver set of scales on her under belly and the underside of her neck. She had black rune like markings on her sides and along her long tail. Above her reptilian tail there was a fan of white tail feathers that were edged in black. Along her back from her bird tail to her head crest was cover in what I believed to be close fitting soft white feathers. Her wings were feathered with same black edging on her wing tips as her tail feathers. She had pair short forelimbs that were more like arms then legs that ended in hands that had three clawed fingers and clawed thumb. Her hind legs were twice as long as her arms ending in set of a clawed feet much like a bird of prey's feet. The talons on her feet looked razor sharp as they clicked softly on the carpeted section of the floor she come to a stop on in front of me and stretch her mighty wing before folding them up at her sides.

Her head and facial features are what surprised me the most about her. She had a beak instead of a muzzle like most dragons. She had a long graceful feathered crest much like a cockatiel a top her head with two slightly shorter silver horns on either side of the crest that sloped back close to her head. They were rather shiny so they looked to be more decoration then anything else. She had black and silver markings on her face that started at the bottom of her eyes and ran to her checks at a slight angle. She had the same line markings on the sides of her head starting from the crest then they ran down the sides of her three foot neck like a racing strip. The most striking thing about her were her rose pink eyes, they were so kind and loving almost motherly in a way.

The second dragon was male and bit tall the the first at a height of ten feet at the shoulder. He was quadrupedal with thick muscular frame the resembled a lion. His body was covered in coarse stone brown fur with golden highlights in the thick tan mane he had. His tail was more reptilian but was much short the the female dragons at two feet. At the end of his tail with tuft of hair just like a lion would have. His wings were comprised of peacock feathers and extremely large, as he appeared with then unfold to the full thirty foot span. All four of his paws were tips with sharp retractable claws just like the large cat he resembled.

The strangest thing about him was his face it was just like an elderly human's with very rough and chiseled feature on his honey brown skin shaped over many long years of hard life and worried filled decisions. His eyes were a deep jade greed that show wisdom beyond reproach. As he stared at me his face seemed to be set in a bit of a scowl at having to show himself in physical form to speak with me.

The last dragon was male as well and the largest of the three at a full fifteen feet tall. He stood upright with the length of legs and arms he could walk around as a biped as well as a quadruped dragon. His body was extremely muscular much like the second dragon but the third dragon seemed built more for speed then power. His scales with black and red but most of his form was cover in sliver and white armor. The only parts of his body that were visible were his neck, upper arms, hands, wings, his midriff, most of his legs, and his tail. He head was most cover by a helmet that his ram like horns stuck out of it. His armor looked a lot like the armor I've seem on the pegasi guards at the castle expect for this armor had gold runes on it in places in that same language I had seen in the books of the Dragon Family that both Savyna and Dragon Feather have.

Of the little I could see of his face the dragon had the standard features of most common dragons with an average muzzle set with razor sharp teeth, a thick brow, and large deep set eyes. His eyes were a bright purple that shone with courage, valor, honor, and nobility. He quickly came a stand still on one side of me making the three dragon's presence a half circle around me before kneeling down to get a better look at me.

[“Is she the mare that will open the path? I am not impressed by her. She looks weak and fragile, far too delicate to be the mother of the chosen ones. Have you lost yourself to love again Savia in choosing this one?”The third dragon asked the first as he looked me over. It was then I realized I was still naked. I quickly tried to cover my shame as I blushed out of embarrassment and anger at being called weak, fragile, and delicate. Who hell did this dragon think I was, Fluttershy or Rarity?

“She's the one, Ion. I'm never wrong about these things. Applejack of Ponyville in the land of Equestria, mare of the Apple Family, the Element of Honesty is the one foretold to become the Mother of Dragons. I have seen it in my visions, read it in the sacred books and have sat with her at the palace dinner table on several occasions. She is the one that will take the world. Believe it or believe it not, its all the same. The truth is truth whether you see as so or not dear brother.” Savia replied as she point at me and smiled awkwardly when she realized my situation. “Oh, where are my manners, the poor thing is naked and here we are prattling on about disagreements between us ignoring her and her embarrassment. Here dear this should help.” Savia said with an embarrassed laugh as she shuck a few of wing feathers loose over me.

The feather drifted down over me and formed in beautiful white wrap around dress with blue belt that would make even Rarity jealous about its splendor. The dress match my curves perfectly but was still loose enough that didn't show my body outline fully. It gave an allure to me. The bodice of the dress was trimmed in the fancy blue lace a floral pattern while the rest of dress feature apples and apple trees. My mane and tail had several apple blossoms woven into them along with a blue hair piece that pinned part of my mane up but let the rest of it flow down my back in my trademark ponytail.

“Thank ya kindly fer the dress, it's a beautiful dress. Ah don't have words to describe it's beauty and how much Ah appreciate havin' it.” I told Savia before looking over at her brother Ion with a ready to brawl grin on my face. “Now that the pleasantries are out the way ya mind tell me what ya'll want from me? Ah heard some pretty wild things from Savia, was it? That Ah want ya'll ta explained ta me really good like. But most importantly Ah want ta know what they mean and why in the blue blazes ya think Ah'm weak and fragile, Ion?” I said with an edge to my voice as I pointed angrily at Ion. “Ah got half a mind ta jump up there and buck ya right in the face even if'n ya are a dragon.”

“Well it seems that normal ponies do have fangs, Ion. You should apologize first before she really does buck you in the face.” The second dragon commanded Ion as he gestured toward me with on of his paws. “We should explain ourselves soon, we don't have a lot of time. Some time soon the Khalessi will sense the disturbance in the dragon lines and come here to investigate it. The last thing we need is Sunburst or any of the other Khalessi showing up here before it's time.” The second dragon said quickly. His voice was the voice I head both times before the three dragons showed up.

“As you wish Valiron, but I see no need for concern for being involved in Sunburst and Celestia petty lover's quarrel. Those two never should have meet in the first place. And I know that this is not the time for us to discuss that matter but it had to be said even if Savia believes it's fate for those two to be together.” Ion replied in a rather annoyed tone, as he wave Valiron off before the older dragon could admonish him for his outburst, more at the fact he had been told apologize then the fact I was going to kick him in the face if he didn't.

As if insulting me wasn't bad enough he had said there was no need to be concerned over Princess Celestia's feelings, that had me hopping mad for a bit but I swallowed that bit of anger for the time being since I needed answers first. But in truth I really didn't like this Ion guy one bit and if it wasn't for the fact I might put Savyna's life in danger I would have just bucked him in the face.

“I beg your forgiveness for my earlier remarks. I was simply stating my doubts at my sister evidence that your are the earth pony mare we are looking for.” He told me with a sarcastic tone.

“You remind me of new friend Ah have he uses that same formal asshole tone when he talks sometimes too. The only difference between you two is that when he realizes that he's being an ass he stops and really apologizes fer it. He also knows when a mare is makin' an idol threat and when she is promisin' pain to his face from her hoof!” I told Ion as I rolled my eyes then turn to Valiron, the dragon warrior’s face contorted in anger and he was going to say something nasty back to me but Valiron raise a paw and silenced him. “Now what's this talk about Celestia and some pony named Sunburst being lovers? And what is that ya'll want with me? Ah aint no mother, not yet. And if'n Ah was it wouldn't be ta a dragon or dragons as Savia stated.”

“Well... you see Applejack you are the Mother of Dragons and right now you are a mother, or I should say you will be a mother in about 10 months... gave or take a week or two with Savyna's child.” Savia said with a nervous tone to her voice and her eyes shift back and forth from me and the other two dragons. “I know this comes as a shock to you that we know this but... She never got finish her sentence as I interrupted her.

WHAT? NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! AH CAN'T BE PREGNANT! I yelled as I point at the feather dragoness who jumped back a little and covered the side of her head with clawed hands, at the sheer volume of my voice. Even the other two dragons cringed a little at my loud declaration of not being with foal.

“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought you know it already. Please don't scream at me I thought Nurse Redheart had told you and your friends. I'm so sorry that you had to find out from us please do be mad at me for ruining that surprise. Please don't hit me I didn't know really!” Savia whined as she curled up in a defensive ball shielding herself with her wings and tail.

“Please Applejack don't be angry with Savia she did not know that at this point in time you had not gone to the hospital and learned of being with foal yet. It was more my fault for this oversight. Traveling the routes of time is difficult at best and nearly impossible at worst even for an Eldrich dragon as power as I. We want to meet you after you had learned you were with foal not before.” Valiron said as he tried to calm my fury and confusion at what I had just heard.

It took me a bit but my anger and confusion both faded as I thought about what I had just learned and it hit me that I had been in heat only three weeks ago and since then I had been eating a lot and peeing up a storm not mention all of the throwing up recently. Well if I was with foal that meant that Pinkie Pie sold me the wrong toy that day, wait a darn minute.... PINKIE PIE SOLD ME THE WRONG TOY!? Savyna was going to be so happy and kill me all at the same time. We had just recently talk about this and she wasn't ready for us to have a foal just yet. Oh horseapples was it going to be hard to tell her about this.

As I realized what was going on I was ready to pass out and sank down to my knees as I panted hard. I was wide eyed with fear, joy, anger, happiness, regret, courage, despair and most of all love, unbridled love for the new life inside of me and the woman that had put it there. It was the greatest moment of my life and yet the worst possible thing to have happen given the current situation with Savyna and me. We had just gotten back together and now I had to tell her she was the sire of our foal. This was not going to end well for me or Savyna. And yet I some how had a feeling Granny Smith already knew about the foal growing inside of me. That line of questions would have to wait for later as I still had other pressing matters in front of me.

“ Applejack are you alright? I know it's a lot to take in but it's the truth and my sister has never been wrong about the birth any creature. She is the Guardian of Fertility and Birth so if she says your are with foal then its the truth as it is her job to guide souls of new life to the the mothers they belong to. Ion said with a shushed solemn tone to his voice, it was the first time he did have a sarcastic or arrogant tone to his words, it was completely sincere. That was strange change from his arrogant starting impression.

“Savia Ah'm... Ah'm sorry, Ah didn't mean ta yell at you like that. It's a lot ta take in all at once. Please tell me what's goin' on here. What is that ya' ll have come here fer? Ah have ta know.” I asked after sitting there on the floor for a while thinking about what had been said so far.

Savia uncurled herself after a while stood up she nodded at my apology to her. She seemed scared to speak to me lest I yell at her again for something else she said. She quickly tuned to Valiron as she placed a clawed hand on his shoulder. “Valiron it's time to tell her everything, she told us to not hold anything back from her past self. If we are to save the middle kingdom and our world from destruction she must know of her destiny.”

“Alright, Savia I will, she did tell us to do whatever we could to save the middle kingdom.” Valiron said with a sad sigh. “I had hoped to not say all of this now but it can't be helped. You and your friends the bearers of the Elements of Harmony are the Council of Harmony, the rulers in the middle kingdom of Harmonia some four thousand years in the future. All of you are dragon alicorns and you hold the title of the Mother of Dragons as you were the first of the elements bearers to become a dragon pony and the second to come an alicorn. Twilight Sparkle who is already an alicorn as she is the Element of Magic, the soon to be Princess of Friendship, and in this time was the second of the bearers to become a dragon pony after you. All of you hold powers equal to if not greater the the princesses of Equestria and the Dragon Khalessi of Connamaraia.”

Valiron let me take all that in as he watched my reaction to the news of being in the future as an immortal being ruling a kingdom with friends much like Celestia, Luna and Cadence do now. When he noticed I wasn't freaking out or screaming at him he was lying he continued. “Harmonia is right in the middle of the Desert of Burning Sands the midway point between Equestria and Connamaraia and that is why it is called the middle kingdom, it was created by you and your friends when you wanted a place that was close to both your home in Equestria and Savyna new home in Connamaraia for the children born from the bloodlines of both lands. After the desert was turn in a land of lush green life with geographical features from both Equestria and Connamaraia by the council's combined Dragon Harmony Power many creatures of all types came to settle in the new lands. You and the council welcomed them with open arms creating a new harmony among the races of the world. Savyna is still by your side as is most of her friends she has now and you and the council rule the middle kingdom with benevolence, kindness and love. It is happy place that is joyous and full of harmony.”

“Ah understand all of that, well Ah get most of it so far but why have ya come to tell me all of this?” I asked still confused and trying to process all of the new information. At the time I wished Twilight and others were there to help me understand it a bit better and so I could hug then ring Pinkie Pie’s neck for helping me get knocked up sooner then I wanted.

“The reason we are here is that Savia noticed that there were souls of new life vanishing from the Wellspring of Life and Death himself had contact her reporting that souls were vanishing from the Well of Souls in his realm. Savia began to investigate this most serious problem and found out from the sacred books that there was a prophecy about the current lose of souls. The scared books spoke of an event in the past involving the Mother of Dragons. If the mother of Dragons failed to bring about the change in the world, to become the one who takes the world the future would be lost and the great evil would return and dye the world black with death. It would be the end of all things.”

When I hadn't said anything or had made a move as if I was going to ask a question or anything Valiron continued speaking while the other two just watched my reactions.“Savia brought all of this to the Council of Harmony's attention as soon as she learned of it and had done the research about the problem. Twilight Sparkle the Mother of the Spiral said that something had to be done about it because if past souls were vanishing and new souls as well then all of the missing souls were connect in some form. If that was true if too many souls vanished it could tip the balance of harmony in the lands as well as the world as a whole. Rainbow Dash the Mother of Flight spoke of many creatures in her city section vanishing and no one remembering them at all when she clearly did. This had to the result of the missing souls and if it kept up major points in history could be affected cause major damage and wars. Fluttershy the Mother of the Meadows had said many of her unicorn magi had reported sensing a disturbance in the void of time centered around the past just before the Element bearers made the change to dragon ponies. If this was true and something in the past had stopped the Council of Harmony from forming and that could be the cause for the missing souls. If that was the reason then the something that had changed must be centered around you, Applejack the first dragon pony of the council. Pinkie Pie the Mother of Joyous Heart said if all the council members didn't make the change in the past then the great evil would not have been sealed away. If that did not happen as it had before and the great evil was allow to run free the harmony of future was doomed. That could not be allowed, something had to be done and soon. Rarity the Mother of Giving Hands said that a group of heroes must be choosing and sent back in the past at once before the great evil could be released from the Tartarus Gate again otherwise the future was lost. You, the Mother of Dragons were the last to speak saying that if the Council of Harmony was in agreement Savia, Ion, and I would be sent back in time to prevent whatever disaster had undone the seal on the great evil. We were charged with the task of informing you of all of this as well as giving you aid when it did not interfere with major events of the past.” Valiron said with a grave look on his face.

“So, Ah, in the future along with mah friends are the rulers a new kingdom called Harmonia? We all are dragon alicorns with immortal powers and stuff like Princess Celestia and Luna? Ah along with my friends sent ya'll three back in time to tell me about the future and ta help make sure we all become dragon ponies?” I asked still bit confused. The story was a wild one but no more wild then when Twilight told us that Nightmare Moon was coming back or Discord doing his thing before Fluttershy reformed him for the most part.

“Yes, Applejack and you chose the three of us for this great mission. I was chosen to be sword and shield for this mission as well the voice of reason, since Savia can get wrapped up in her faith a bit too much and read too far into things. Valiron was sent as he is the wisest of the Eldrich dragons to bring us back in time as well as lead this mission. Savia was sent because she has all of the sacred books memorized to tell us when and where to be to a point and she can see the lines that link souls of the pasts to souls of the future. Ion said with a muted tone to his voice, as if he didn't know if he should saying what he was saying to me.

“Well this a lot ta chew on. Ah don't know what ta say. Ah want ta believe and Ah can see in yer faces yer tell me the truth but it so much ta swallow.” I told them as I sat down and took a few deep breaths to calm myself. “So now that Ah know all of this Ah'm wondering if Ah can just tell the others bout it?” I asked this cause I really need Twilight’s help because she was so much better at this whole magic time and space travel whosit and parallel whatsit stuff. I couldn't make heads or tails of it all.

I would only tell Princess Twilight Sparkle and Dragon Feather for now Applejack. The others are not ready for the news of impending Goddesshood just yet. They all still have a lot of growing up and changing to do, especially Rainbow Dash and Savyna. Some of the things the Mother of Flight has told me in private about things she did before she become more mature in her late 1200's... well it still makes me blush when I think about it. Savia said as she hid her face with her wings because of the bright blush she had at remembering something a much older Rainbow Dash had told her. Judging by how red her face was it must have been pretty perverted even for the current Rainbow Dash who could be a real tomcolt at times.

“Okay no tellin' other expect for Twi and Feather. What about the other Princesses?”

“No, you must not tell them anything until they meet with the Dragon Khalessi from Connamaraia. While I don't think Celestia and Sunburst should be together those two must not meet before its time other wise who knows what will happen to the future. A lot of what's to come is set in motion by the differences those two alicorns have with each other. To tell Celestia anything will chance her decisions and cause the course of the future to shift unpredictably. That's something we can not allow. The same goes for Luna and Cadence as well since they will more then likely tell Celestia. We will be around watching over you and the others so when its time we will come to tell you so until then please make sure Twilight keeps Celestia, Luna, Cadence and her brother Shining Armor in the dark about all of this until you meet the Nine Dragon Khalessi of the Sunstones. Ion told me quickly.

“Alright, alright, Ah get it, no blabbin' about it the royals 'cept Twi.” I told the trio as I waved them off. “So how do Ah call on ya'll if'n Ah need ta speak with ya or Ah need ya ta convince Twilight Ah'm not crazy?”

”Just call out our names and say 'The mother of Dragons summons thy' and we will appear a few moments later.” Valiron explained to me as he looked around for a few then turned back to me. “I'm afraid our time is up Applejack the Dragon lines are shifting now and if we stay here any long the Dragon Khalessi will sense our power and come here to investigate what three powerful Eldrich dragons are doing in Equestria with alerting them or the rulers of the lands. In five days you may summon us without fear of alerting the Khalessi of our presence, but if you should need us before then don't hesitate to call on us. We will deal with the Khalessi as best we can.” Valiron told me before he began to shift back in to a ball of light.

Ion wished me luck then said his farewells next before he shifted back in a ball of light along side of Valiron. Savia was the last to say goodbye, she leaned over and nuzzled me softly before she said her goodbyes then shift back in to light. The three orbs of light all pulsed a bit before speeding back into distant darkness. Seconds after the three dragons were gone the darkness pulled back leaving me stand in the room wearing the dress that Savia had made for me.

I quickly ran in to the bathroom, shut then locked the door before I took a few minutes to calm down. After I had my wits about me thoughts of my delicate condition surfaced and I'm never going to get use to the whole morning sickness thing. I hope it would pass but from what Granny Smith had told me and what I've seen from some of the mares with foals in the Apple family morning sickness is a three month inconvenience I will have to learn to deal with. After brushing my teeth I noticed that I was clean. When Savia had shaken her feather over me to form the dress they had bathe me in the process. Since I didn't need a shower and I was already dressed I went back in the bedroom and sat down at the desk.

I pulled out several scrolls and wrote down all that I was told for Twilight and Feather since it would be hard to remember it all late when I finally had time to speak with them. I also wrote down everything I was told with some instructions to send it to all of the princesses in case something happened that I or my three dragon guardians couldn't handle. This way the princesses would know and the others could help accordingly. After all of the letters and lists were written and hidden until I could deliver them I sat on the bed while I watched Savyna sleep as I thought about the best way to tell her she was going to be a father, no a Falma and all that had happened and will happen.

There was so much to do in the next few days and some many love ones to tell the happy news to but still I wasn't as happy as I felt I should be given the fact that last time Savyna and I talked about having children she had flat out told me no to the idea because of her past. While I understood her reasons for not wanting to raise children yet fate had decided on making her do it anyway. My biggest concern there was if she wanted to get rid of the foal or put it up for adoption? But according to my three new dragon guardians we have many foals that are part dragon in a kingdom that my friends and I created for them. Savia said I was all ready the Mother of Dragons now, so that would mean that my foal is already a dragon pony. Which means that either I'm already part dragon or Savyna is....? There was a lot of new question to asks raising up inside me now, questions that only one pony and three dragons could answer for me but because of the magic of some strange dragon line things I would have to wait five days before I could get those answers.

After giving up on driving myself crazy by figuring out all of the weirdo future stuff I just took the time to live in the peaceful moment. Right now the only thing that matter was Savyna, our unborn foal and the life we would build together as a family. I sat there thinking about what our little family would look like after the foal was born and Savyna came to stay on the farm full time. I didn't have long to think as Savyna woke up a few minutes later. She yawn and stretched before smiling at me sleepily. “Morning beautiful, how long have you been up for? She asked me curiously.

“Morning sugarplum, but its closer to noon though.” I told her softly with a smile. “Ah've been up fer a bout an hour or so thinking and wait fer you ta wake up.”

“I see you had time to shower and change. Wow were did you get that dress it looks really good on you and your hair is beautiful.” Savyna told me as she eyed me like a hungry wolf eyes a deer.

“Nope, nothin' doin'. Yer not messin' up this dress. Ah just got it from a special friend. A gift to me and you really, ta celebrate us being together. So why don't ya go get cleaned up and lets go somewhere fer the day.”

“Okay, don't be so touchy AJ, I would never mess up one of Rarity's dress. Besides the mare is kind of scary when she in fashion mode.” Savyna joked before she got up off the bed. “Give me a bit to get cleaned up and we can figure out what to do today before I leave with the party this evening.” Savyna said as she got up and gather things before going to shower. I sat back at the desk listing to her sing the shower off key and I tried to figure out my next move then decided that until Savyna leaves all the future stuff could wait.

After her shower Savyna threw on a pair of loose fitting black monk pants that stopped at the knees, a white tank top tucked in and she wraps around her feet, ankles, hands, and wrists. She had to dress in her warrior gear since she was going out with the party that evening for a week long job watching a wizard's tower, but I have to say she looks very attractive even if she was mostly going in to battle. As we made our way down stairs I pass the letters to be deliver to the maids with instructions on whom they should be delivered to today. The other letter with special instructions I would hand deliver to Spike so no pony would know about it or get in the way.

“Hey what's up with all the letters today?” Savyna asked me as we head for the door.

“Just making good on somethings Ah need ta say ta someponies that Ah didn't want ta say in person just yet. It's easier this way.” I told her quickly.

“Oh, hope one of those wasn't to Rainbow Dash since you said you had talk to her today.” Savyna reminded me about my appointment with RD today.

“Oh horsefeathers Ah plum forgot bout havin' ta talk ta RD today. Thanks fer reminding me. Ah better get goin' ta get it over with. Wait fer me here will ya? I promise not ta be too long” I told her then kissed her on the cheek before heading for the front door.

“It's okay, I only remembered since I have a meeting with the others that will take an hour. After you go and talk to Rainbow Dash I should be done with the party meeting about the wizards tower job so meet me at Sugarcube Corners in an hour and I'll take you out for lunch, okay?” She asked me as she gave me a kiss.

“No Ah'll meet ya at Sugarcube Corners in an hour and Ah'll take ya out fer lunch.” I said back smiling, she returned the smile.

“Awww how cute you think I'm really gonna let you pay.” Savyna said in a girly voice then she giggled. I laughed with her before we ended in a long kiss before I was off to meet with Rainbow Dash. Savyna whistling and slapping my ass as I walked away from her. Several of the maids saw this open display of affection as I blushed something awful and giggled shyly as I looked back at her acknowledging what she did. I run back over to gave her a smokey look and another long passionate kiss.

“Just wait till ya get back home in a few days. Ah'm goin' ta lock ya in mah room and break mah new stallion in proper.” I whispered in her ear before heading out. I didn't have to look over my shoulder to know that she was still standing there with her mouth agape at what I had just told her.

I had walked midway through town getting all kinds of curious and flattering looks from many of the stallions and a few mares when I ran into Rainbow Dash coming from Sugarcube Corners. She must have been helping Pinkie Pie and the Cakes package and deliver orders since business had been very crazy lately. It had been the same for the farm too as we had to hire Brass Tail full time now since business was up and we need more and more apple harvested. Must be a mass of travelers coming through town as of late. Since Savyna and the other had showed up Ponyville was now a growing town. Pretty soon we were going to lose its small town feel and start to get the feel of a big city on the raise if we kept getting new arrivals like it was. Rainbow Dash turned and smiled when I called name, that surprised me since our last encounter wasn't all that pleasant so I figured she'd still be mad at me.

I called her name again and she spotted me in the bustling crowd and held a finger up asking me to wait a minute. I guess she was still busy helping the Cakes. After waiting a good five minutes for her to come over to me I just made my way thru the crowd, Ponyville was rather busy today, over to her. Once I made to the bakery's front doors she smiled at me again then point towards the park before we began walking through town.

“Hey AJ how's it been? What's up?” She asked me as she walked beside me.

“Ah've been okay, you?” I replied, still wondering if she still angry about yesterday.

She shrugged her shoulders before speaking.“It's been a busy day, with all the new ponies and such moving here to Ponyville every ponies been busy expect the weather teams. So I took a part time job doing delivers for the Cakes since they need the extra help. And the extra bits anit bad either.” RD told with her usual I'm cool attitude then she got quiet for a long while.

The silence was getting to me so I spoke first about the fight yesterday. “If'n yer still mad about the fight we had yesterday, Ah'm sorry about that. It's just that Ah had a lot of things goin' on at the time, ya know with the whole fight with Scootaloo and Dragon Song over Apple Bloom.”

“It's okay I understand AJ, you were defending your little sister and the filly she's in love with. I get that and I was being a real ass that day. I'm like Scoots older sister, you know so I understand that completely. Besides were friends and sometimes friends fight, it's no biggie.” Rainbow Dash told and she smiled.

“Thanks for bein' so understandin' Rainbow but Ah'm still sorry fer yellin' at ya all the same. Ah was really stressed out and that whole situation just reminded me of the fight between me and Savyna.” I let the last part slip out forgetting I wasn't supposed to tell anypony that.

“So you and Savyna broke up? When did that happen?” She asked me trying to find an opening she could slip into or so I thought.

“Yeah we broke up fer two weeks but Ah went and talked it out with her yesterday so we're back together now. Ah'm suppose ta be meetin' her at Sugarcube Corners in an hour ta go out fer lunch.” I explained to RD.

“Well that's cool that you two worked that out. I would have never guessed you two had split up.” RD said as she had funny little smirk on her face before she blushed and looked away from me. “Hey AJ umm... I uh... needed to talk to you about something... you know... about... that night...” She said hesitating as her cheeks got redder.

“What was that sugarcube? Ah didn't catch that last part.” I said back as I watched her blush more and rub the back of her neck.

“I needed to talk about... you know about... what happened with us and Savyna...” She whispered again a bit louder but I still couldn't make out what she was saying exactly.

“Well RD Ah can't help ya out if ya can't tell me.” I said with a bit of irritation in my voice. She blushed even harder before looking at me and sighed.

“I wanted to talk about that night, the night when you and Savyna first had sex. When we had the stupid contest over who should be with you.” She said forcing her glance down still blushing.

“W-what bout that night do ya want ta talk about?” I asked blushing as well.

“Let's go somewhere more private to talk about this.” RD said as she looked around to see anyone had heard us. When she was sure no one had heard what we were speaking about we headed for the park.

Once we were at the park Rainbow Dash and I were sitting at a picnic table away from the few ponies in the park Rainbow Dash looked at me still uneasy about how talk about that night or say what she wanted concerning that night.

“So why do ya want ta talk about... that night fer?” I finally asked after a few minutes of awkward silence.

“Well it's not an easy thing to ask but I'll try.” Rainbow said said still blushing hard from before. She was blushing so hard her normal cyan coat looked lavender. “Well you see I was wondering... that thing I want to know if I could...”

“What is Rainbow Dash? Ya know ya can ask me anything right?”

“Yeah I know but this is kind of awkward to say so I'm just going do it real fast okay.” Rainbow Dash said before she took a deep breath to calm herself. “IwanttoknowifyouwouldletmesleepwithSavyna?” She asked in one big breath.

“Ya want ta WHAT?” I asked shocked and what I had just heard from my friend.

“I want to know if you would let me have one night with Savyna? I know this a super unawesome thing for me ask you, but ever since that night I can't stop thinking about. I mean what I saw and felt... it was so awesome! I saw her use the freaky glowing hand power stuff on you and you were in like a prolong orgasm that it made me cum so much... my memory of that... it won't go away. I find myself clopping to the memory of it. I'll understand if you never want to talk to me after this.”

I just sat there for a long while thinking about what to say and nothing came to mind. I mean Savyna and I had just talked about that last night and here was Rainbow Dash asking me about it. I guess Savyna was right, the question was, was I okay with sharing Savyna even for a night?

“Well... that's a lot ta ask a mare that just got back with her stallion but Ah can understand why ya would want and need ta ask me that. “ I said with my face as red as a tomato. “I can't promise anything now but if'n Ah get Savyna ta agree to this it would just be the one night now. No more after that at least until me and Savyna work a few things out about our relationship.”

“Oh I see... well that's okay I just thought I... huh.. are you serious?” Rainbow Dash asked in disbelief at what I had said.

“Yeah Ah'm serious. We kind of already did it as a group once while drunk so Ah don't see a problem with tryin' it sober if'n Savyna will agree ta it. But remember this is only once and no more until Ah say so, Ah aint trying ta build a herd or nothing like that yet. So long as ya understand that Ah'm fine with this.” I told Rainbow Dash as the tried to meet her gaze but couldn't

“Hey I totally get it. You want a solid relationship with Savyna after all she is your special somepony. Thanks for understanding AJ I just had to get this out of my system you know. It's been really messing things up with me and Soarin since that night happened. I feel like if I just get this out of my system I can make it right with Soarin.”

“Have ya talked about this with Soarin at all? Ah don't want yer stallion think we're tryin' ta take you from him. Ah mean the whole herd thing can make a stallion jealous especially if the mare he loves is with another stallion that has a few mares already. Are ya sure he will be okay with this?” I asked wanting to make sure this okay on RD end before I even talked to Savyna about setting this up later.

“Yeah, I talked it over with him and he was the one that suggested I ask you and Savyna for this rather big favor before it tore us apart. I'm really into Soarin and that night I was super drunk and a little jealous, okay a lot jealous to be honest, that somepony else had your attention. I wish I hadn't been so stupid that night but now I can't stop thinking about it.” Rainbow Dash told me with tears in her eyes, she quickly wipe them away before continuing. “To be truthful with you I kind of wanted you to be in a herd with me with Soarin as our stallion. So that night when you were with Savyna I saw that I lost my chance to ask you just that and the alcohol started talking to me and then one bad thought lead to another next thing I knew I was challenging Savyna to the stupid contest that end with me losing in more ways then one.”

“Ah'm flattered that ya would want to share yer stallion and yerself with me Rainbow but don't ya think ya should asked me a bit sooner then that night?” I asked Dash a little puzzled by why she waited until a few weeks ago to ask me to be in a herd with her. Her and Soarin had bee dating for a few months and it was getting to the point that wedding bells weren't to far off.

“Well the fact is I was a little scared you would say no or that it would change your feelings about me and ruin our friendship. It was Soarin that talked me into finally asking you after a weeks of urging and encouraging me to tell you my real feelings. I mean when I told him I had feelings for you and ask him how he felt about starting a herd with you as one of a few mares in it he was all for it. Soarin said that you were rather nice, he loves your apple pies and the thought you had a rather nice plot.” Rainbow Dash explained a bit embarrassed about telling me all of that.

“Well that was right nice of him and but I couldn't join a herd with ya'll, it wouldn't be fair making ya'll stay on the ground when a pegasus' place in the sky. You two would have ta leave Cloudsdale if'n Ah join yer herd.” I told Rainbow Dash softly, she seemed to understand that and just nodded softly. “Besides two awesome fliers like you and Soarin would have yer pick of pegasi mare in Cloudsdale that would love to be herds sisters with you Dash.”

“Well yeah but Soarin kinda has a little thing for earth pony mares, strong legs and all. But that's a story for another time.” Dash told with a deeper blush at something I would have to pry out of her later. Seems me being friends with Dash wasn't the only reason Soarin had been okay with adding me to their herd.

“Well back to the matter at hand, I told Soarin about that night after we started having problems three weeks ago, arguing over little silly things and our sex life become non-existent because I felt guilty about that night. He is super awesome stallion, he didn't get mad when he should have been super pissed at me because I end up ditch him that night we all end up together. To his credit he has been really patient with me about this whole thing, not once did he blame me or you or Savyna. I was ready for him to leave me because of it but he completely understood my feelings about the whole thing. He even told me that if this was what I need to let go of it then he was fine with that because he would do anything to make me happy. I felt so guilty about that that I kind of took it out on you and Dragon Song yesterday when we got into that fight. So I'm sorry about that and I'm glad that you will talk to Savyna about it. I hope we can get this done so I can start making it up to Soarin.”

“That fight thing is fine and Ah forgive ya. We both had some guilt bout things we had done ta both of our stallions so its all forgiven. Ah'll do my best to convince Savyna so you and Soarin can start gettin' back ta where ya were before that stupid night. The only thing is that it will have ta wait until Savyna gets back in a little over a week. Ya see she has a job that will take a week to complete, and the whole team is leavin' this evenin'. The best part though is after this one Savyna and others are taking a year long vacation from fightin'. Ah'll ask her ta think bout it at lunch today and Ah'll get ya an answer when she gets back after her mission okay.” I told Rainbow Dash with a smile.

“That's cool but there is one other thing... I mean it another really big favor.” Dash said still blushing.

“Let me guess, ya want ta know is if Soarin can come along too?” I asked with a devious smirk on my face.

“Please AJ, if you could convince Savyna it would be a really big surprise for him. I mean two mares and human woman, he blow a load just seeing the three of us naked. Please talk to her about this?” RD begged with giving me the puppydog eyes.

“Well Ah can ask her but ya should know that mah stallion may want a piece of yer stallion's plot in return for this favor.” I told Raid while still smirking.

“What do you mean by that?” She ask curiously.

“Ah mean that Savyna has just as much if not more, since Ah aint seen what Soarin is packin' in those pants of his, stallion's pride then the average stallion. I mean Soarin looks like he got some size but mah baby has a third leg.”

“What are ya trying to say? Are trying to say the Savyna's more of a stallion then Soarin?” Dashie asked me with a lot of irritation in her voice at me calling Soarin's love muscle small.

“No, Ah aint saying Soarin is small if that's what ya think. No that's not it at all but Savyna's cock is 26 inches long and about 5 inches thick. I mean the damn thing is huge and I can barely handle it at times. Is Soarin ready to handle something like that if'n Savyna decides she wants a taste of his plot as well?” I asked hoping RD wouldn't freak out at what I had just said. I was wrong.

WHAT!? RD screamed as she point at me. I quickly stood up and grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the park before anypony could ask us what was going on.

After we were away from the park and standing in one of the alleys near the Sofa and Quills store I eyed RD rather hard before sighing and got ready to explain to her everything. It took 20 minutes to explain it all to her and she asked so many questions the whole time but finally she understood what I had been saying and was asking her earlier.

“Wow that's interesting to know about Connamaraians but the thing about Twilight is really a shocker.” RD said as we made our way back to Sugarcube Corners. I only had ten minutes before I was to meet with Savyna for lunch.

“Yeah Ah know but it makes sense seein' as she's a bit of a perv when it comes ta magic.”

“More like super big perv, I talked to Pinkie Pie about that weekend she want us to come help her. I know Pinkie is into that super kinky stuff, but come on! Some of that stuff is just super weird and Twilight was the one doing it to Pinkie Pie, Lyra and Bon Bon!” Rainbow ranted and it was a valid point but Twilight was entitled to be a closet pervert just like the rest of us.

“Whether its weird or not Twi has the right ta be as big a perv as she wants ta just as long as she keeps it all private like and don't hurt nopony while she's doin' it.” I pointed this out because of what Dash had asked me earlier and now it was time to tease her a bit. “Besides Dashie aint ya the one that wants ta be mah stallion's little ridin' mare along with Soarin, right?” I asked her with wicked grin and raised eyebrow.

Dashie quickly blushed and closed her mouth. “Point taken. I'll lay off Twilight and her kinks, okay.”

“Well good. Ah have ta get goin' got a lunch date with Savyna and Ah need to get ready to see the other girls after the warrior team leaves for the next meetin' for our little club.” I told RD.

“What little club is that?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Well when and Savyna and her group leave on a job Rarity, Zecora, Fluttershy, and Ah all gather ta together ta support one another while our stallions are away. All of us worry about Savyna and the others while there out there riskin' there lives fightin' and such so we get together and talk bout our relationship and how feel and such. It helps keep us from worryin' all the time and bein' lonely without 'em here with us.” I explained. “I know Soarin is often gone a lot with the Wonderbolts and Ah' know ya can't make it ta all his shows so ya want ta come join the club with me and other girls.”

“Uh... sure why not right? So when do we meet then?”

“Meet us at Rarity’s place tonight at 6:30. The team's train leaves at 6 so we will see them off at the train station then go back Rarity's place ta talk and have our meeting.”

“Okay I have to see Soarin before he off the next set of show in Las Pegasus tonight 6 myself so I see you and the girls at 6:30 then. Later AJ and thanks.” Rainbow Dash told me before she spread her wings and took to the air. She was most likely on her way to Cloudsdale to see Soarin for the rest of the afternoon and no doubt tell him about our little talk.

I just shook my head and turned my attention back to the task at hand having much fun with Savyna before she left tonight since tomorrow I had a whole future to worry about saving and find away to tell everypony that Savyna and I were expecting a bundle of joy in 10 months. It didn't take me long to get back to Sugarcube Corners and when I arrived Savyna was waiting for me munching on a blueberry muffin and I saw Ditzy Doo or as everypony call her “Derpy Hooves”, a silly nickname because of cute but often times disastrous clumsiness she has when delivering the mail, walking away with a basket full of blueberry muffins, the silly mare sure did love her muffins and spreading the love of muffins to everyone she meets.

I walked up to Savyna and stood next her keeping as quiet as possible so she wouldn't notice me until I was ready to surprise her. I walked up behind her and placed my hands over eyes. “Guess who this is and you will win a surprise gift but you only get three chances and if you lose you will have to pay a penalty.” I said in my Manehatten accent just to confuse Savyna a bit. “Remember if you peek you automaticly lose the game. You can only as three questions, one for each guess. Ready to play?”

“Okay lets see here my first question will be, are you a mare I know?” Savyna asked quickly with a chuckle.

“Yes, you have meet me several times. What is your guess?”I asked.

“Rarity?”

“No, that is strike one, darling.” I told her then gave her my best version of Rarity high society laugh.

“Okay, have we known each other very long?” Savyna asked next as she licked her lips.

“Yes and no. We have seen each other for a long time but it has only been recently that we have connected in person.” I said still using my posh voice.

Could you be, Mayor Mare?” She questioned with a exaggerated tone of confusion.

“No you are wrong again my dear. Only one more question and one more guess before you have to pay the penalty. Chose carefully my dear I don't think you can afford the penalty.” I teased Savyna hoping she never would guess it was me.

“Okay one last question then, what will it be?” Savyna said with a knowing smile. “If we know each other and have met before recently have we kissed?”

“Yes we have kissed many times and each time we kiss it feels like it's the first time. Who am I?”

“You can be only one mare then, my mare, my beloved star, Apple Maria Jack.” Savyna loving said as she pulled my hands from eyes and spun me a round in her arms before dipping me down and kissing me passionately.

“How in tarnations did ya find out what mah middle name was?” I asked after she pulled me up and let go of me. I completely forgot about all of the ponies and people starting at our little display in front of the bakery I was more worried about how she found out what my middle name was.

“To quote a wise old mare, 'Apple Maria Jack, haven't Ah taught ya better then that?' I tended to remember things my elders say just in case there's test later.” Savyna giggled before pulling into a tight hug. “What's wrong with your middle name I think is so cute.”

“Ah don't like bein' called by mah middle name. The only time it's used is when Ah'm in trouble.” I told her with mock anger showing on my face.

“Well even with that I did win the game so what's my prize?”

“Well ya won so you get ta take me ta lunch at The Golden Apples then clothes shopping fer the rest of the day and yer paying fer everything.” I told Savyna with cute mischievous smile before I pulled away from her and started down the road toward the restaurant. “Well come on lover girl we don't have all day and ya have lot of clothes ta buy me.”

“This mare is going to drive me crazy and into the poorhouse if this keeps up and I'm loving ever minute of it.” Savyna said with a laugh before she chased after me complaining about my new expensive tastes. I told that it was her fault for spoiling me rotten from before. We had a good laugh before head to the restaurant for lunch.

“What made you chose my favorite place to eat for lunch?” Savyna asked me as we walked up to the restaurant and bar hand in hand.

“This was the first place we had gone to on our first official date and since we are startin' over Ah thought we would start this restart off right by havin' another date.” I replied in a softly girly tone. “You don't mind taking me out on another date do ya?”

“No I'm happy to take my mare out for date at my favorite restaurant but the only thing is with you dress like that I feel a bit under dressed this time around.” She said softly as she looked at me with an awkward smile.

I giggled at her awkwardness before kissing her softly. “You look fine it's just lunch no pony will notice.” I told her reassuringly as walked thru the open doors to the front counter.

“Name please.” The Hostess was the same pale purple mare with the gold rimed glasses and her white and sliver mane in a bun just the last time we had ate here. Seconds after it left her mouth she looked up to spot Savyna and me standing smiling at her. “Oh Ms. Shadowstorm and Ms. Apple how good it is to see you two again. Will it be a table for two today?” The mare asked.

“Yes, a table for two Silver Bells and thank you.” Savyna replied with a light smile.

Of course, right this way madams, we are always happy to have you both for lunch or dinner.” Silver Bells said with a smile before she led us to our special table in the back and disappeared back to the front counter. Savyna sat in the booth and Ah took a seat beside her. We sat there for about minute before a waiter, the one from before, Black Flute showed up. He had on his same dapper suit and tie with his slick black mane combed back. This time I didn't feel really under dressed staring at him it was Savyna sitting in that boat this time.

“What can I get for you two ladies this afternoon?” Black Flute asked smiling at us.

We order the same thing we had the last time we were at the Golden Apples minus the alcohol, for one Savyna had work later and I was pregnant so that was just big no-no, our drinks from the last time were replaced with non-alcoholic sparkling cider. It was rather tasty and didn't make giddy and lightheaded like the Champagne had. While we ate I told her about the talk that I had with Rainbow Dash and the requests Dash and Soarin had of us. Savyna giggled as she know Dash would ask sometime soon but the Soarin thing was a new twist she hadn't expected. I told her we could always say on on adding Soarin to the little get together so it would just the three of us. Savyna surprised me and said it was fine if Dash brought Soarin to play so long as I didn't have a problem with it. I told her it was fine just as long as she was okay with him being there since this was only a one time thing to help those two out. If it all went well we would see about more play dates with them in the future. Savyna found that part interesting as she would like to see how I would handled another stallion with her watching. We made plans for a get together with Dash and Soarin once she got back and she told me to tell Dash when I saw her later that there were no promises that Soarin wouldn't end up as the third mare in our bed that night, after all she was from Connamaraia too.

After lunch we went shopping and Savyna bought me a few more dresses and a tone of jewelry to go with them. She was turning me in to a rather girly and frou-frou mare but I did enjoy showing off to her in the dresses she picked out. I made sure to get then a few sizes larger then I really was since in a few months I was going to need a whole new wardrobe once I started showing. I made a mental note to go the hospital some time soon to get a prenatal check and consult with the doctor soon about my pregnancy and some time soon I was going to have to talk with Dragon Feather about my pregnancy since my foal was part dragon which according to my new guardians was of the blood of Connamaraia.

Once the shopping was done and we had nice stroll thru the park hand in hand before we went back to the house for pre-battle love making. We were surprised to find out all of the other girls were in the house with their respective stallions doing the same thing. After having an awkward laugh about Fluttershy shouts for Tank to fuck her plot sore and Rarity yelling at Zecora about hogging all of Black's sweet milk Savyna and I ran to her room to see if we could out do them all.

For the next two hours we all listen to each others shouts and moans of intense passionate love making. After the pre-battle preparations were over with after a round of showers and redressing we all had an awkward gathering in the front hallway before leaving some 20 minutes there after. The girls and I just smiled knowingly at each other while our stallions just stared at each other awkwardly before Black stated we should leave before the party missed the train.

With that said and few laughs at the embarrassment our stallions were feeling we all left for the train station. On the way there the party was talking over battle plans and strategies while the girls and I discussed our meetings schedule and the new addition of Rainbow Dash to our club. Once we made to the train station there were hugs and goodbye kissed shared by all and everyone in the party boarded the train save Savyna who was still holding on to me.

“It seems like every time we find a bit of peace with each other I have to leave you again.” Savyna whispered as she held me tight.

“Ah know sugarcube, Ah hated it as well, but it can't be helped. Don't worry bout me none Ah'll be fine just you stay safe and come home ta me in one piece.” I told her calmly before I inhaled her deep and sweet scent. “ Before ya go Ah have something Ah want ta give ya.” I told as I pulled her dagger from it sheath and grabbed a huge chuck of my mane before slicing it off. Rarity witness this and fainted right on the spot. Luckily Zecora and Fluttershy were there to catch her.

After I had the long strands of my mane that I had cut away in hand I tied a knot in one end of them and put a ribbon from my ponytail on the other end before handed it to Savyna. “Here this way ya will have me and mah scent close to you ta remind ya that you have a home and a new life ta come home ta now.”

“Apple Jack... I love you you much you crazy, stubborn, loving, beautiful mare. I will come home no matter what.” Savyna told me before kissed me again.

Soon the other were yelling for her to come on since the train was leaving in a minute or two and if she missed this train she would be two days behind the rest of them in getting to the Wizard's Tower. “ Go on sugarcube, get a goin' so ya can hurry back ta me and when ya get back Ah will have a very special surprise waitin' fer ya.” I whispered in her ear before pushing on to the train seconds before it started to leave the station.

Savyna was yelling for the train to stop as it sped up and out of the station for parts unknown to me. As it left Savyna stared at me burning the vision of me, in my white and blue floral dress, with apple blossoms woven in my mane as it blow and flowed around me in the wind, deep into her mind to never lose it even as time wore on. She etched deep into her heart the sight of the mare she loves, the mare that had saved her from herself, the mare she would die for, me, her beloved Apple Jack....

Author's Notes:

Okay This chapter took us way long to finish then we wanted it to and was cut short by the 4 full scenes thanks to two time frame error with a character's birthday and Hearts 'n' Hooves day being the same day.

There have been some major set backs with the story over all as the D&D campaign the was fueling it's creation has broken up, Pony 101 has had to move again, We lost a full gig worth of production notes and plot line notes, and scenes the had been written for this and all connected stories. Even with all of that we decided to keep going and finish this story out.

You will notice that we have corr the way the story is written and the country accented way of spelling is only used when any apple family member is speaking. We did this for two reasons, One people complained about the grammar in previous chapters (See we do read your comment and take them to heart), and two it was much easier to go back thru to spell check, write, rewrite, and read thru. Previous chapters have been rewritten as we now have three dedicated proofreader who have add a few ideas and scenes to the story.

In this chapter three new character have been introduced and a lot of future plot has be revealed by three of them showing up. The three dragons that will show up later in this rather long chapter, (Made long by the inclusion of the three dragons and the information they bring and will as a few storyline enhancements) have been added at the request of one of the players in the campaign that this story is based off. It is unclear if they will be stay or their roles expanded beyond what it is already. That will depend on how you the readers respond to the way they are present in this chapter.

Finally I know this going to come up sooner later after this chapter has been read even if people don't read the whole thing. Several of the character while have be most people opinions odd reactions to several events that have take place. Most notable of the odd reactions will be Apple Jack's at several things that happen to her and several things she is told.

1 This in AU story so canon events and reaction need not apply here.
2 All of it has story purpose that will come in to play later.
3 Everypony and other non-pony in this story are changing based on the events unfolding around them and as we get further into AJ and Savyna's relationship more and more strange things and questions keep popping up causing everyone involved to have adapt to the situation.
4 Things are about to get stranger and having Apple Jack or anypony else freak out now would just ruin the much bigger surprises that lay in front of our star crossed lovers.

As always please comment and any suggestion, or request for content in the story are always welcomed and encouraged. Help us makea more engaging and vivid story for you the readers. Now please enjoy the chapter.
