-----------------

Darkness. Twilight couldn’t see a thing, but this wasn’t an unfamiliar darkness. It was like coming home from some function or another in the middle of the night, with no moon or candles to light her way. She knew this place, she could walk it blind. The night stood opposite her, defined only by her starry mane and eyes, and even those didn’t cast any light into this place.

”I know you are not of this world, Princess Twilight.” The night spoke coolly, its eyes narrowed at her. ”But my power is sovereign. You’ll show me the proper respect you know I’m due, or I will end you.”

Twilight frowned at the shadowy mare, slowly lowering herself to her haunches. Her horn began to glow faintly, and a scintillating sound began to fill the darkness.

”What? What are you- no! Stop it! Don’t! NO!”

“I’m sorry, old friend.” Twilight sighed as the light began to overflow, to cover even the darkness. The mare writhed in agony, her head thrashing to and fro as Twilight wrested power away from her. “But this world holds no sway over me.”

”You fool! You’re making a mistake! One step in either direction, one slip-up, and you’re done! I’ll kill you!”

“I told you,” Twilight stood and stepped forwards, looking down at the night, in all her infinite glory and power. And Twilight, standing over her with all her own strength. “You hold no sway over me. You cannot harm me. The night in my world, she can… But you…” Twilight shook her head slowly, the darkness fading away until they stood in the midst of a crater, blackened and smooth.

“You are not her. I am no part of your world, and as such, your sway over me matters not. But my control of your power…” Twilight’s horn blazed once more, the tendrils of shadow leaping to life to wrap around the night itself. Twilight hardened them until they were stronger than steel…

Strong enough to hold a goddess.

“Is absolute.”

”What are you…”

“I am leaving.” Twilight snorted. All around her, the glassy surface of the cratered oasis glimmered faintly. It was night time, with stars and a half-full moon hanging overhead. “This place sickens me. I pray the Saddle Arabia in my world isn’t so despicable. If it is, I very well may have to make some changes.”

”You’re leaving?” The night feared Twilight, and rightfully so. The night may have had sovereign reign over the shadow, but all of those things manifested themselves with magic. And in that field, Twilight was unparalleled. None could best her, not even the goddess of the night herself. Twilight controlled the manifestation of the night, and as such, all of the power the night had over the living world. While the goddess before her still remained sovereign, Twilight could manipulate and control the way that goddess exerted herself. It was a neat little loophole she had discovered in her own world through extensive experimentation and some very in-depth discussion with the night itself. The same could be said of the day. Twilight could harness either of their energies and direct it as she would.

But doing so was a direct violation of that goddess’ power. Twilight had sworn to both of them she would never do it. She would never violate their trust and use their own power against them. She knew her mind was fallible. She could make mistakes or grow weary, and when she did, her control of that power would be wrested from her, and the gods would do with her as they pleased.

But that was in her world. Here, the two beings were completely separate. Twilight could control either, and retain that control as long as her mind would allow. Should she allow her control to waver for even a moment, though, she had no doubt the night would kill her for her sacrilege. Now that she had stepped over that line, she needed to make for the crystal mirror as soon as possible.

“No more disguises.” Twilight frowned as she released the night. It drew back, eyes wide with fear and wonder. “I’m leaving this world. You’ll never see me again. I’d apologize for what I just did, but it doesn’t matter to me.” She looked around at the crater, and knew that all of the ponies she had murdered had been burned away into nothingness.

“Just like none of them mattered. Not in the long run… Here, in this world, I’ve done something unspeakable. But in my own, I might as well have just speculated about committing such an atrocity…”

“You can’t escape the guilt of what you’ve done, Twilight Sparkle.” The night growled at her. “Your guilt will follow you through the portal and into your world. Be it my counterpart or your own subconscious, you will answer for what you’ve done here today.”

“Of that I have no doubt.” Twilight shrugged. “But I know a really good way to cope.”

”Oh? Do tell.”

“Now, now…” Twilight tsk’d at the night, smiling as she cupped her pendant. “You know full well of what I speak. I need to return home, to my world. No more disguises, no more limitations.” She spread her wings, casting one last sad look at the black crater that had been left in the wake of her psychotic meltdown.

“Farewell, old friend. Oh, and my counterpart in this world… She doesn’t need to know of what I’ve done. She remains reverent.”

”If there’s one thing I’m good at,” The night swallowed as it looked at Twilight. ”It’s keeping a secret.”

In the night’s eyes, Twilight saw something. There was anger and rage, to be sure, but there was something else there as well. Something surprisingly mortal for a being so powerful.

Respect.

She was gone in a blink, leaving Twilight alone with her ghosts. She shuddered once, feeling the chill night air pass over her flanks.

“Alright, Luna…” She sighed, flapping to gain height. “I’m coming home…”

-------------

Flying in Saddle Arabia was exhausting. Twilight could hardly find purchase in the thin air, and it seemed for every five flaps, she equated to maybe one in her home skies. She had never been a skilled or accomplished flier. Practicing was a valuable timesink, and she had better things to do than flap about the sky all day. She was passable, but that was in Equestria, where the air was full and even a filly could soar with ease. Here, she struggled. The flight away from the black crater was the worst, when she had to fight the pockets of low, cool pressure. But after that was the wide expanse of desert, with still air and very few thermals in the chill of night.

Twilight left Saddle Arabia behind with a sigh. The Gryphon Territories stretched out beneath her now, with strong winds and thick air. She could feel the change in the air as she struggled through the border, her flaps carried her higher, and it became easier to glide for longer. She relaxed a little, thankful for the break. It would be easy flying from here to the Crystal Kingdom, and the mirror. Indeed, she covered twice the distance in half the time, and the wind roaring through her ears was rejuvenating. She was able to think ahead to seeing Luna again, to being back home so she could wash off the dried blood and tears.

She was going to be a fright stepping through the mirror. Luna would probably faint at the sight of her. Or worse, panic. The thought of seeing Luna freak out, dragging her out of the hallway and into their quarters to clean her up fueled her further. She pumped her wings, passing the North-Western border of the gryphon territories, and into Timberwolf territory. The pine forest slipped underneath her quickly, replaced with the wide, rolling hills of the Crystal Kingdom. Daybreak lay just beyond the horizon, and ponies were beginning to wake. Twilight cloaked herself with an invisibility spell to avoid suspicion, and winged for the glimmering capitol.

The night was right behind her as Twilight entered the castle. She knew one brief moment of relaxation would be her last. Twilight forced sleep from her mind, focusing on the task of slipping unnoticed past the guards and other crystal ponies going about their routines. Thankfully, it seemed the castle was busy sleeping in this day. There were few guards and fewer hoofservants, thus she was able to find the corridor with the passage to the mirror unmolested by anypony save the deity at her back.

”Hmm, so it’s in the Crystal Mirror…” The night muttered softly. Twilight cast her a quick glance as she slipped into the chamber with the mirror. The night seemed to have forgotten Twilight for a moment as she stared in reverence at the gleaming surface of the ancient artifact.

“Indeed it is. I think you might even be able to use it, should you please.”

”Now that would be interesting.” The night mused, stepping up to Twilight’s side. ”I would like to see how my counterparts are faring in their own worlds…”

“Just don’t come to mine.” Twilight grumbled. She shot a glare at the goddess at her side, making the mysterious being flag a few steps behind. The implied threat was enough. Twilight might not be able to kill the deity that was the night, but she could do some serious damage. At the very least, Twilight was comfortable with her ability to force the night back through the mirror, should she try to follow Twilight into her own.

“Hello again, little buddy.” Twilight beamed at the sight of the slumbering dragon, his breath still puffing hot blasts of flame into the cavern. He hadn’t moved an inch from what she remembered, save maybe his left foreleg having curled up a little differently. “Well, old friend, it’s been an experience.” Twilight turned to the night once more, her horn glowing faintly. “As I said, don’t come to my world. I promise you neither of us will like what happens there.”

”Fair enough, Twilight Sparkle. But allow me to say this: Come back to this world, and I will watch you. Every second of every minute that you spend drawing breath in this world, I will spend trying to kill you. I don’t much appreciate my magic being harnessed and used against me like that. I’m sure you know this already, hence your haste to depart. While I’m a little sore that I can’t punish you fittingly here and now, I’ll hold out hope that you’re foolish enough to come back through that portal one day.” Her eyes flashed with meaning, and Twilight knew she was being serious.

”I’ll be waiting for that day, Twilight Sparkle. The day I make you pay for what you’ve done to me.”

“Yeah, well…” Twilight stepped back towards the portal, her hind legs already melting through the silvery surface. “Don’t hold your breath.”

-----------

“Twilight! Heaven’s sakes, you’re covered in blood! What happened?!” Despite Twilight telling her she’d be fine on her own, Luna was waiting on the far side of the mirror. As Twilight backed the rest of the way through, the exhaustion and fatigue of what she’d done caught up with her.

“Urgh,” She moaned, flopping onto her stomach roughly.

“GUARD!” Luna roared, rushing forwards immediately. Twilight smiled up at her lover as the princess fell at her side, cupping her head gingerly. “Hang in there, Twilight. The guard’s on their way, we’ll bring you back.”

“I’m fine, Luna… I assure you.” Twilight mustered enough strength to push herself forwards, her lips seeking Luna’s. They met gingerly, sharing a soft breath between the two of them. When it broke, Twilight could have cried with relief. “I’m just exhausted… It’s a long story.”

“It had better be.” Luna frowned down at Twilight. “You look like a nightmare… I swear, if I didn’t know better, I’d say you were attacked.”

“I was…” Twilight chuckled, nuzzling Luna’s mane tenderly. “Several times, in fact…”

“Oh dear.” Luna sighed as she turned towards the guards rushing into the crystal mirror’s chamber. “Well, you can tell me all about it after we get you washed up, and get some sleep under your belt.”

“Sleep. Yeah, that sounds good.” Twilight moaned, her eyes closing on their own volition. “I could go for some slee-“

Darkness once more.

------------

When she awoke, it was in the peace of her own bed. Luna lay at her side, and as soon as she inhaled deeply, the princess lifted her head to smile down at her.

“Good morning, sleepyhead.” Luna teased, kissing Twilight’s nose.

“Good morning to you.” Twilight groaned, her own lips seeking Luna’s. She was blessed with a tender kiss, the simple motion sending a wave of relief through her she had feared she’d never get to experience again. She clung to it desperately, savoring every last second they spent with one another. When the kiss ended, Twilight was crying again. Luna didn’t ask any questions, or press her in any way. She simply stroked Twilight’s mane, holding her close.

Twilight cried to her heart’s content, sometimes even screaming with the hot pain in her chest. She had come so close to losing Luna, to losing this simple embrace. What’s worse, she had very nearly abandoned her one true love. She would have been dead; there was no way to feel when you were dead. But Luna would have had to endure that loss, and for that, Twilight cried harder than ever. She clung to Luna, shaking and sobbing until she felt like there was nothing left.

When all her strength had left her, Twilight felt a pair of lips against her own, snapping her out of her depressed reverie and straight back into reality. Luna kissed her then, simple and sweet.

It was like all of the wrong in the world had just been set right. Twilight inhaled through her nose as she returned the kiss, pulling Luna’s lithe body tight against her own. The heat of desire coupled with the fire of passion in her breast, making Twilight quiver with anticipation.

“Shower.” She groaned, breaking the kiss off with a breathy pant.

“As much as I love kissing you,” Luna nipped at her ear teasingly. “It is an awfully salty ordeal right now.”

“Come on.” Twilight tore herself away from Luna and rolled out of bed, casting a glance over her withers to make sure her lover was following. Luna was hot on her tail, the two of them making for the bathroom post-haste. Twilight cranked the water on hot and slipped under the hot stream, groaning as she felt the tension and sadness melt away. She let the anger and rage at Saddle Arabia go with it, watching as the ruddy red ribbons of the dried blood on her coat swirl the drain.

Just like the dirt and blood left her coat, Twilight let the guilt for what she had done slip from her mind. It was a different world, so different in fact that Twilight began to equate it with a dream.

’Rarity never bore Regal a child, nor did she abandon Equestria and her friends for Saddle Arabia.’ Twilight let even that thought slip her mind as she looked straight up into the stream of water. Her eyes closed blissfully, even as she felt Luna press against her side.

“Let me clean you?”

“Please.” Twilight nodded. She felt Luna shift, her magic fetching the soap and rag from their place on the side of the shower wall. She stood perfectly still under the hot water as Luna began lording attention over her, tenderly scrubbing away all of the grime and filth from her trip to the other world.

“Celestia was right,” Luna chuckled. Twilight spared her a quick, quizzical glance.

“What do you mean?”

“The sand DOES get everywhere.” Luna pulled the rag from under her stomach, showing off a small array of gritty sand. Despite all the things that had happened, Twilight had to laugh. She let the soft chuckle develop into a full-bodied laugh that mirrored Luna’s, the two of them raising their voices in joy. When their laughter died away, it left a smile on their faces. Twilight stepped close to Luna, their necklaces snapping together.

“You’ve no idea how much I missed that.” Twilight groaned, immediately pressing her lips against Luna’s. They kissed for a long while, until Twilight’s lungs burned for air. She pulled away with a gasp, her cheeks flushed even in the hot shower. “How long was I in there?”

“Two days.” Luna returned, leaning in to kiss Twilight’s cheek. She continued tracing kisses up the side of her face to her ear, moaning as she nibbled on the soft cartilage. Twilight felt her knees grow weak. Her ears were her one true weakness, and Luna knew how to exploit them wonderfully. As she stood under the hot stream, she felt the fire build in her core once more. She stepped closer to Luna, her own lips seeking the soft flesh along Luna’s neck. She nibbled it softly, making her love moan directly into her ear.

It was a vicious cycle, one that grew more intense the longer Luna toyed with her ear. Twilight could feel her arousal building to a head, and a trickle of liquid that didn’t come from the shower traced down her thigh.

“Twilight,” Luna panted between kisses and nibbles. “I missed you so much…”

“And I you, Luna…” Twilight returned, kissing her way along the nape of Luna’ neck, her muzzle buried into her love’s magnificent mane. “So very, very much…”

“Did you… Do anything while you were over there?” At Luna’s question, Twilight paused. She gave a sigh and pulled away, looking Luna in the eyes.

“I very nearly did, Luna, and I entertained many thoughts about making love to a pony that wasn’t you. For that, I apologize.”

“Twilight,” Luna teased. “I told you, I don’t mind if you do… It’s not like you don’t love my anymore, right?”

“Of course not!” Twilight pulled back, appalled. “I love you more than anything! I’d never violate that trust-“

“Twilight.” Luna silenced her with a hoof to her lips, her own spread in a slight smile. “I never said you would, or that I believed you did.” She stepped forwards, their necklaces snapping together once again. “Sex and love, to me, are two completely different things. You can have sex with somepony and not love them. Therefore, should you make love to another pony…” Luna’s form glimmered and shifted, almost like it was a mirage. Twilight gasped as Emerald took her place, smiling coyly up at Twilight.

“Like this one, I wouldn’t hold it against you.”

“Luna! How did you see her?”

“In your dreams.” Luna teased, leaning forward to kiss Twilight’s neck. Emerald’s beautiful body was a fresh reminder of the long ten days Twilight had gone without, and her insistent lips were making Twilight quiver. “You see her quite often. Who was she?”

“Th-that’s not important.” Twilight panted, trying to reconcile Luna’s sudden change. Since Twilight had become a Princess, she was marginally larger than Luna, though not quite as large as Celestia. Now, Luna’s new curvaceous form was much shorter than her, coming up maybe to her breast. But that didn’t seem to stop her. She smoothly stood on her hind legs, wrapping her hooves around Twilight’s neck. Her lips moved higher, teasing Twilight’s ears once more.

“L-Luna, I- Ah!”

“Hmm,” Luna moaned, nibbling on Twilight’s ear enough to send hot flashes of pain through her skull. “You seem to be enjoying this… Tell you what.” Luna pulled back, looking up into Twilight’s eyes with a lusty, heated fire inside. “Why don’t you turn back into Dusk, and we can have some fun?”

“Luna! I-I couldn’t-“

“Twilight, my love…” Emerald chuckled as she cupped Twilight’s cheek. “I never told you how much I liked Dusk. Maybe I want it…” She glanced down between them, where Twilight’s chest heaved with each breath she took. “Just as much as you do.”

Twilight couldn’t hold out. In a flash, Dusk took her place, dropping Emerald a good couple of feet. When her hooves impacted the slick tile, Luna slipped and fell with a cry. Twilight seized the opportunity, pouncing on Luna, straddling her head-to-tail.

“Well,” Luna panted, laying sprawled on her back. Twilight’s haunches were spread just above her head, her sodden tail dangling down far enough to tangle into Emerald’s. “Can’t say I don’t like this view.”

“Shush.” Twilight growled dangerously. She leaned her own head down, kissing Emerald’s soft, warm stomach. She felt it twitch beneath her mouth, further spurring her to kiss and tease it.

“Ooh, Dusk.” Luna teased, writhing underneath her. “You’re so naughty.”

“You sound just like her,” Twilight grumbled. “I’m beginning to wonder just how much I dreamt of her.”

“Quite a bit, my love.” Luna’s voice, disguised as Emerald, sounded from between her thighs, coupled with a warm breath against her dripping marehood. “I enjoyed watching her in your dreams, almost as much as I’m going to enjoy this… Aahn~”

“Woah!” Twilight gasped as Luna’s mouth plastered to her slick love hole, her tongue immediately sliding inside. After so long without, it felt like a lightning strike. Twilight’s whole body went rigid as Luna fervently licked her core, hitting all of the right spots one right after the other in no particular order. The way she flawlessly switched from her g-spot to her clitoris was enough to send Twilight over the edge of bliss.

“UGH!”

“Pwah!” Luna pulled back as Twilight let loose a shower of her own. Her cum spurted forth readily, running down her thighs in rivulets and soaking Emerald’s face and mane. “My my, Dusk, you’ve been holding back haven’t you?”

“Sh-shut up, Emerald.” Twilight panted. The fire was far from quenched, and instead roared to life as Twilight caught sight of Emerald’s marehood. Even that was just as she remembered from the few times she had seen it. She wanted to taste it, to feel it against her tongue. She wanted to hear Emerald cry out, to cry her name and cum from her ministrations.

“AHN!” Emerald’s first cry echoed off of the walls, even as her whole body tensed up beneath Twilight. Dusk’s tongue wasn’t quite as dexterous or practiced at Twilight’s, but that didn’t stop her. She dove in on Emerald with a hunger that was borne of ten days of denial. For somepony who wasn’t exactly in a committed relationship or used to regular sexual interaction, that may have seemed like a paltry amount. But to Twilight, that might as well have been a millennium. Furthermore, Emerald had been an incorrigible tease. She would flash Twilight or make lewd jokes implying the two of them could just as easily be involved in some intricate and sweaty positions of their own.

Twilight was hungry, and not for food. Her tongue delved deep between Emerald’s soaked lips, tasting parts of her that Twilight was certain her usual customers never got to feel. Emerald showed her appreciation with several more loud cries, enough to hurt Twilight’s ears. She ignored her partner’s screaming and continued licking, alternating between sucking her clitoris and hitting her g-spot.

“D-DUSK!” Emerald screamed, her entire body quivering. “I’M CUMMING! I’M CUMMING! UHN!” With one last upward thrust, Emerald reached her orgasm. Twilight felt a fresh wave of delicious, musky cum flood her mouth, and she lapped it up eagerly. The musky fluid was thin and went down easily, and Twilight drank her fill. When she pulled up, a thin trickle of it spurted out onto the tile, and the pulsating sight of Emerald’s pink, tender vagina made Twilight seriously consider round two.

Instead, she turned around, plastering her mouth tight against Emerald’s. Their lips met with enough force that Emerald’s head drove into the tile, and her mouth opened wide. Twilight lashed out with her tongue, cupping and wrestling Emerald’s into submission. They stayed like that until neither could breathe properly, and when Twilight rose her head again, it spun like she had just gotten off some amusement park ride.

“Dusk…” Emerald panted, looking up at her lustily. “I’m not nearly fucking done yet. I hope you’ve got enough in you for another go.”

“Don’t you worry yourself.” Twilight chuckled. She sat down on the tile floor between Emerald’s creamy thighs, lifting one of her legs to rest on the earth pony’s stomach. When she scooted her haunches forward, her marehood plastered tight to Emerald’s. Both mares flushed brightly, catching on to the other’s desires. Smoothly, Twilight began rubbing her pussy against Emerald’s, the wet flesh sliding and moving in a most alluring way. When she dragged her clitoris through the soft tendrils of fur on Emerald’s stomach, it sent a shock of pleasure through her body that threatened to make her cum right then and there.

“Oh yesssss,” Emerald moaned, her eyes closing as she lay back. “This is good… Keep going, Dusk.”

“Haah… Ahn…” Twilight’s hips began moving faster, bit by bit. She fell into a rhythm, their wet marehoods making erotic and delightfully naughty noises. Twilight’s needs couldn’t be denied any more. As her hips moved faster and faster, she came to one shuddering apex of bliss.

“Easy, girlie…” Emerald groaned, rising up to wrap her hooves around Twilight. “Don’t overdo it… There we go…” Twilight felt the cool tile press against her back, and Emerald lay her down easily. The sultry mare loomed over her, smiling faintly as she kissed up and down Twilight’s neck. “Let me return the favor, hmm?”

“O-okay.” Twilight’s addled, lust-filled mind could only numbly agree. Emerald’s lips began to trail lower, kissing up and over her breast, down her stomach, and between her thighs. Twilight’s tail twitched as the first brush to her sensitive cunt shot through her system, making her eyes flutter closed and her stomach twitch. Emerald went right to work, doing things to Twilight that she had ached for the past week and then some.

When she came, Emerald rode it out masterfully, rubbing her stomach to keep her relaxed. Twilight breathed deep in the aftermath, smiling as Emerald worked her way up to her mouth. The musky taste of her own cum was delightful and musky, sparking yet another fire in her core.

“Emerald.” Twilight groaned, stroking the earth pony’s luxurious, green mane. “I want something inside of me…”

“Oh so do I, Dusk…” Emerald’s eyes glimmered wickedly as she stood to her full height. “You stay right there, and I’ll go get something. Don’t be afraid to stay warmed up, either.” She winked deviously, stepping over Twilight on her way out of the shower. Doing so gave Twilight another good, long look at the pink lips of her marehood, glistening and pulsing with desire still. Twilight decided to take Emerald up on her offer, turning so her thighs pointed straight back at the door. Her hoof descended from her neck to her stomach and down between her open legs, gingerly rubbing her swollen clitoris. The low blaze had erupted into a full-on firestorm by the time Emerald returned, carrying one of their more devious toys in her hooves.

“Enjoying yourself, I see.” Emerald teased, hoisting the double-ended dildo. “Don’t let me stop you.”

“Hnn~” Twilight watched Emerald watching her, her hoof turning into a blur of motion. She was a long ways from reaching orgasm like this, but damn it all if she didn’t enjoy the sensation of being watched. Emerald wasn’t wasting time, either. She sat with her back against the shower wall, her legs spread wide to display her own dripping hole. She began licking and sucking the dildo, spreading a fair bit of saliva onto the floppy, delightful toy. Twilight was blushing furiously. She had felt like such a deviant when Luna bought the thing, and using it made her feel so dirty.

But dirty fit the mood just then. Emerald slowly lowered one end to her dripping cunt, rubbing the glistening toy up and down her flared lips. She smoothly pushed it in, her eyes closing with a long groan. When it reached the end, the other half stood up and away from her body, just begging for Twilight to take part.

She couldn’t deny herself, or Emerald. Panting with desire and excitement, Twilight scrambled to her hooves and straddled Emerald. The flared head of the toy pressed against her own hole, building in pressure until Twilight felt it spear her insides.

“AHN!” She cried out, having forgotten how petite Dusk was. The toy hurt, but only for a moment. She flexed around it, growing accustomed to the sensation of being penetrated once more. Emerald’s hooves rested on her hips, slowly guiding her down, inch by agonizingly slow inch. “Haah… By the stars, it feels so tight… Like I could burst at any moment.”

“Ooohh,” Emerald moaned, kissing Twilight’s breast. “That sounds nice… Go on, Dusk… Enjoy yourself.”

“Don’t mind if I do.” Twilight kissed the top of Emerald’s head as she bottomed out on the toy. Her clitoris brushed Emerald’s, the toy buried between the two of them. A shudder of pleasure ran through her as she slid upwards, her walls clenching in to fill the space vacated by the delightfully thick shaft. She slid back down once more, taking the whole thing until her dripping hole met Emerald’s.

From then out, it was easy. Twilight rode the shaft, sliding up and down, in a circle, and side-to-side with practiced ease. She’d had over a century to use the thing, after all. Emerald was enjoying herself, if the eager kisses and loud cries were any indication. Twilight smiled, her own mouth open in breathy, lust-filled exhalations of ecstasy. She lost track of the amount of times she came, but each shuddering, eye-clenching experience coaxed even more liquid from her pulsing cunt.

When exhaustion took its toll on her, Twilight felt like she was glowing. She slid off of the toy, pulled it gingerly out of Emerald, and lit her horn with magic.

“Hmm,” Luna smiled up at her as the two of them emerged once more, their bodies whole and natural once more. “That was delightful.”

“I love you, Luna.” Twilight whispered, her lips brushing her love’s.

“And I you, Twilight.” Luna returned. They shared a sweet, simple kiss, the only sound the beating of their hearts and the hiss of water on tile. When the kiss ended, Luna smiled up into her eyes. “I won’t ask you what happened in that other world, Twilight, or where all that blood came from. It’s a different world, and it doesn’t matter to us any.”

“I know it doesn’t,” Twilight sighed softly, stepping back so Luna could stand beside her. “I’m hoping I can forget what I did in time.”

“Well I’ll be here to help with that.” Luna chuckled, kissing her neck. “Though I hope you don’t forget about Emerald. Gosh, that was fun.”

“Yes it was.” Twilight giggled as she kissed Luna once more. “Now we need to get cleaned up again.”

“Aah, I got dibs.” Luna winked, grabbing the rag and soap. “You stand there and relax. You can get me next.”

“Boo.” Twilight stuck her tongue out, but subjected herself to another scrubbing anyways. The second Luna started on her neck, though, she pulled away with a sigh.

“I swear.”

“What?”

Luna held the rag up again, and Twilight fought to keep from bursting out then and there.

“The damn sand gets everywhere!”
