“So Rainbow,” Dr Wolf said as he removed his glasses, “Tell me about the first time you ever had this attraction to minors.”

“The first time?” Rainbow repeated, frowning in thought, “Well, obviously I had to be over eighteen for that to happen. But I seriously can’t remember specifically.”

Dr Wolf lowered his gaze for a moment and raised an eyebrow, “Come now Rainbow. This couldn’t have been bothering you for this long and forget when it had started.”

“If it was there all along, I sure didn’t notice it much,” Rainbow admitted with a sigh, “All I can remember is that it reared its ugly head a few months ago. The only thing I know that could’ve triggered it was… Oh. Oh, no…” She palmed her face, groaning a little, “I hate talking about this memory!”

“You’re going to have to,” Dr Wolf said more firmly, leaning forward, “Otherwise we’re not going to make any progress and you’ll be here longer than either of us would like.”

Running her hands along her hair, Rainbow groaned and conceded, “Fine. Okay. It was back during my third year in college. It was late one Friday night, and I had nothin’ to do. Did I mention that the weather was like a million degrees that night? Plus our AC had broken down, so we had to wait until the next day for it to be fixed. I was lying there, in my bed, trying to keep busy. Fluttershy was in her bed next to mine, and I was unbelievably horny. Then again, what else was new? I just kept staring at her, just… trying to fight off my fantasies of waking her up and then-yeah, you knew the rest. So, I decided to get some air and go look for something I could do.

“I walked around campus a bit, then I just went into town and figured I’d go to the bar. So I did, I went to the bar and had a couple drinks, same ol’ shit. Then this hot girl sits next to me and we start talkin’. We hit it off and I’m thinking that tonight won’t be so bad after all, especially since I knew she was hitting on me. So she invites me back to her place, promising it’s air conditioned, and we go. I was nervous as hell, since I didn’t exactly plan ahead about telling her about my dick. But I figured, fuck it, just go with it.”

“Mm-hmm,” Dr Wolf nodded, writing on his pad as he started to piece the story together, “And what happened when you got to her place?”

Rainbow didn’t respond for a moment or two, but she sighed heavily and looked out the window, “We got there, and we’re just making out like crazy. It started awesome, but then.. she felt the dick in my pants, and freaked out. She thought I was, no joke, a Drag Queen. I tried explaining to her, but then her folks walked in. They started yelling at her, then at me, and I found out that the girl was fourteen. And she did not look fourteen at all. I found out she used a fake ID to get into the bar, and was… yeah, it got ugly. So I got out of there, went back to the dorm, and pretty much pretended like nothing happened. Scary thing was, I didn’t care if she was that young. She was hot and I wanted to fuck her. I just didn’t want to get caught. Lucky for me, she didn’t press charges, nor did her parents. No one found out about it, anyway.”

“And that would have been the point where you first realized you had this inclination toward very young women?” Dr Wolf asked as he turned the page on his notepad.

“Pretty much,” Rainbow nodded a little, “But I guess it wasn’t just that, either. It was all the rush I got from it. Getting caught, sneaking around with younger hot girls, and just going wild with that.”

Dr Wolf made note of this new development, “So it wasn’t just a fetish, it was also an act of thrill seeking?”

Thinking this over, Rainbow nodded, “Actually, yeah. It pretty much was. The thing is though, the more I think of it, it’s when they don’t look young that it gets to me. I mean, if I see someone who’s about twelve and they look twelve, I don’t bat an eyelash. But when they’re, well, hot, and I mean really pretty, it’s then that I feel all hot inside. But when I realize they’re younger, it just fuels that rush so hard. Hot and illegal? Sign me up, I’d say, and there I went.”

“This desire to seek out an adrenaline rush implies you’ve had sex with young girls before,” Dr Wolf said, raising his glasses again.

“...It was once,” Rainbow admitted, looking down now, “I’m not exactly proud of it.”

“Go on,” he said, sitting back with his legs crossed as he propped his pad against his knee.

Wringing her hands nervously, Rainbow bit her lip, then looked up at the ceiling, “I was heading back to my dorm from the bar one night. This girl was following me, and she said she was horny and wanted a fuck. I told her right out I had a dick and that she should maybe try the gay bar down the road. She actually went for it, and invited me back to her place. On the way, I asked her how old she was. The girl got all uncomfortable, but admitted that she was sixteen. Could’ve fooled me! But she begged me not to tell anyone, and wanted to take a chance. I decided to go with it, and so we went back to her place.

“We fucked a few times, and...after I left, I felt sick. Like, I was about to vomit or something. It was weird, because everything we did felt awesome and I didn’t want it to stop. But after I was leaving and letting it all sink in, I wanted to throw up. I couldn’t even sleep for two nights because of it.”

“Most in your position would have sought professional help after such an ordeal,” Dr Wolf explained, “Why didn’t you do the same?”

Rainbow sighed, shaking her head, “I was convinced I wasn’t crazy and didn’t need to. Besides, I also felt scared that if I told some therapist what happened, they’d report me to the cops and I’d be in jail.”

Dr Wolf nodded, feeling it was unnecessary to point out where that line of thinking had gotten her, “Alright. But these were all strange girls. The two you molested you’ve known your entire life. What about them?”

“Like I said before… I was horny and angry when I tried to.. molest Scootaloo…” Rainbow’s voice shook a little bit with shame, “So I wasn’t thinking clearly at all. And Sweetie Belle, she… well, I don’t know how or why I didn’t just tell her to get off and go home. My mind shut down and I couldn’t take it.”

Dr Wolf nodded and looked at his watch, “Alright, that will be all for today, Rainbow. I’ll have security bring you back to your room. You have a visitor.”

Looking a bit grim, Rainbow mumbled a thank-you, then got up and left the room when the security personnel came in to escort her.

“Dash, your visitor’s here,” came the voice of what sounded like a security guard outside her room. Rainbow didn’t lift her head from her pillow, only making a small grunt.

“Thanks, Dad,” came a soft, but familiar voice from the doorway. Rainbow sat up to see a familiar redhead at the door.

Looking around, Cielle was nowhere to be seen, so that meant only one thing. Cielle had a fun little trick where if Rainbow focused hard enough, she'd take the form of someone else. They'd made use of it quite a lot over the last few weeks. While Rainbow wasn’t exactly in the mood, surprisingly, she figured it better to go along with it. Maybe a little roleplay rutting would cheer her up a bit.

“So there you are,” Rainbow said, getting off the bed, “I was wondering where you got off to.”

“I’ve been home,” Ascentia remarked, raising an eyebrow in confusion, “How are you?”

Now it was Rainbow’s turn to feel confused. Why was Cielle playing it up like that? Where was the raw energy? She sighed, brushing it off. It didn’t matter, anyway. A new approach to this never hurt.

“Oh, ya know… Had to talk about a bunch of stuff I wasn’t proud of. Kinda got me a little down,” Rainbow shrugged.

“Pfft, come on, Rainbow,” Ascentia smiled, moving forward and sitting down next to her, putting an arm around her shoulders, “You’re stronger than that. I once saw you get run down by a pickup truck and just get back up.”

Okay, this was looking up. Rainbow chuckled, giving a sultry smirk, “Wow. You sure know the right things to say, don’t ya? I always did like that.”

“You did? Every time I make a crack like that I get yelled at,” Ascentia said with a flat, but sarcastic, pout.

“Only ‘cause we love you. It’s fun,” Rainbow chuckled, bringing a hand down her back, “Besides, you’re cute when you pout.”

“You hurt me because you love me, yeah I’ve heard that one before,” Ascentia said with a snide expression, “...Wait, I’m what?”

‘And now she’s playing innocent? O-kay, Cielle, seriously… what’s up with that?’

No response. That was weird.

“Never mind,” Rainbow waved it off, then took hold of her wrist, “I know what you’re after… you can admit it, I’m not gonna bite. Unless you say I should.”

Ascentia looked from Rainbow, down to the hand around her wrist, “Are they pumpin’ you full of sedatives? You’re actin’ weirder than Fluttershy during hunting season.”

“Me? Weird? Nah, you’re talkin’ crazy,” Rainbow giggled, “So let’s cut to the chase, how do you want it this time? I know you like it fast, but I’m gonna need a little build up, if you know what I mean.”

“No I don’t know what you…” her eyes trailed down to Rainbow’s shorts, and the clear tent in them, “Rainbow… let go of my wrist,” she said slowly.

“And now you’re playing hard to get? Okay, not what I had in mind, but I’ll roll with it,” Rainbow chuckled, letting go, “Hey, no need to hold back now. Come to mama… Okay, that was lame. Can you forget I just said that? I’ll think of a better one.”

Ascentia backed away, her eyes wide as she retreated until her back hit a wall, “Come to… mama? Rainbow… what the fuck’s wrong with you?”

Chuckling a little, Rainbow advanced toward her, crawling, “You know what’s wrong, now c’mere…”

Rainbow stood up and pressed up against her, her hand drifting down to reach into Ascentia’s jeans… until the woman’s fist collided with the side of her face. Ascentia kicked her back so Rainbow fell onto her bed, her hand painfully wrenching out of her pants. Rainbow cradled a bloody nose as she sat up to see Ascentia standing back from her, pointing a handgun at her and shaking violently. Hyperventilating.

“GAH!” Rainbow yelled, forgetting her pain and getting off the bed, wide-eyed, “Too much! Too much! Put that away! I don’t know how real those bullets are, but I am not taking any chances! Put it away! Time out, time out! Seriously Cielle, what was that about?! It was going fine until you decided to play that on me!”

“Going fine?! You put your fucking hand down my pants!” Ascentia screamed, shaking as her eyes started to tear up, “What the fuck are you trying to pull?! And what did you call me?!”

“No, I’m serious! Time out! You can change back, I don’t want to anymore!” Rainbow waved her hands, “And put that gun away! I’m not-”

It was then that she noticed Cielle in the doorway, wide-eyed and confused.

“Dash… what did you do?” she asked, stepping carefully into the room and making sure not to get between them.

All it took was a single second to realize what was actually going on.

“Oh… Oh my god… Oh my GOD! Ascentia, oh my god, I am SO sorry!” Rainbow sputtered, falling to her knees and holding her hands up like she was a caught fugitive, “Please don’t shoot, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to do that to you, I swear! I’d never hurt you like that, ever! I’m sorry! I thought you were Cielle, she does this thing sometimes and I-oh fuck, I’m so sorry!”

Cielle slowly moved forward and laid a hand on Ascentia’s shoulder, closing her other hand around the gun and pulling the roof back to keep it from firing, gently lowering it, “It’s okay, this was all a really bad mix up…”

Ascentia relented and let Cielle take her gun from her, falling back into a chair and pulling her knees up to her chest, breathing heavily as she wiped her eyes, “I just came to visit…”

Cracking her eyes open, Rainbow saw she was safe, and managed to stand up, slowly, but kept her hands up, “I-I know that now… it’s okay… I’m not gonna hurt you… see? See? I’m right over here… I’m gonna go over there, don’t worry… Oh man, I’m sorry! If I knew it was really you, I’d have… oh fuck, I’m sorry…” She managed to sit herself down on the bed, keeping as far from her as she could.

Cielle wrapped her arms around Ascentia’s shoulders and rocked her like she’d seen Twilight do, “Sometimes… I change myself to look like one of the girls. And… well you never come to visit her so she thought it was me and… thought it was all part of some game. I’m so sorry, Asy.”

Ascentia nodded, making it clear that she understood but her shaking didn’t slow down. Cielle let go of her and walked over to the bed, swatting Rainbow across the back of the head, “You dolt.”

Not even flinching, Rainbow looked away in shame, saying nothing as she fought back the urge to cry.

The door opened quickly as a guard stood in the doorway.

“Is everything alright in here?” he asked, looking around as the emergency alarm on his belt was beeping like crazy, “We heard screaming.”

Ascentia sniffled and wiped her eyes, “We’re fine, Daddy. Things just got… a little emotional in here…”

The guard nodded and left.

“That’s your father?” Cielle asked.

“Yeah,” Ascentia said, wiping her eyes dry as she dropped her knees, still shaking.

Having no strength to even be freaked out by that, Rainbow palmed her face in both her hands, shaking a bit and sniffling. Cielle wrapped her arms around her this time and cradled her.

“Hey there, calm down now,” Cielle whispered, “It was an… well it wasn’t an honest mistake, but it was a mistake.”

“I’m such a screw up… I nearly raped one of my friends...” Rainbow moaned shamefully, sniffling.

“Hey, it’ll be okay,” Cielle said softly, “She’s alright. Right Asy?”

“Y-yeah…” Ascentia said quietly.

Calming a little, Rainbow wiped her eyes, “I’m still sorry…”

Ascentia nervously got up and approached her, sitting on the other side of Rainbow and joining Cielle in the hug, thought Rainbow could feel her trembling even as Ascentia nuzzled the side of her head.

Stiffening slightly, Rainbow eventually calmed down enough and relaxed against them both.

“Thanks, girls…”

Ascentia eventually pulled back and wiped her eyes again, “I’m… I’m gonna go. I’ll… try again some other time,” she said quietly as she stood up and pressed the call button, at which point her father escorted her out. His questions about why she was crying heard all the way down the hall.

“Aw, he calls her Rosebud,” Cielle smiled as she pressed an ear to the wall, “That’s adorable!”

“...Yeah, it is,” Rainbow murmured in agreement, not even cracking a smile.

Cielle plopped down next to her and wrapped her arms around her waist, “Hey, c’mon now. Don’t regress on me, Dashie.”

Sighing a little, Rainbow embraced her in return, nuzzling her, “I’m trying, I’m trying. It isn’t just that, either. I had to tell the doc about...some things I really don’t like thinking about.”

“Uh-huh,” Cielle nodded, “I heard.”

Holding Cielle tighter, Rainbow buried her face against her chest, “I wanna go home…”

Cielle held her gently, stroking her hair and rubbing her back, “I want you to go home too.”

“I miss my friends… I miss Scootaloo, I just adopted her and she’s awesome for still putting up with me after what I did… I miss Flutters…” Rainbow moaned, sniffling harder and beginning to cry, “I hate it here, I wanna get outta here like right now.”

Cielle cradled her and kissed the top of her head, “I know you do. I want to as well.”

“This sucks…” Rainbow sighed, “But I’m sure glad I’m not alone now… I’d have gone nuts if I were.”

Cielle smiled brightly and nuzzled her, kissing her cheeks, “Thanks.”

“No, thank you,” Rainbow let go, then lay down, “I’m gonna nap… you can join me, if you want.”

Cielle smiled and lay down in front of her, pressing her back against Rainbow’s chest in a desire to be the little spoon, “Sure, I’d love to.”

Managing to smile, Rainbow brought her arm around her middle, “Awesome.”

Cielle nuzzled against her as the two laid back on the bed, “You bet.” Next Chapter: Gonna Have To Confiscate 'Em Estimated time remaining: 14 Hours, 10 Minutes
