Chapter 8

Defensive & Offensive Preparations

*****

(Valhalla Fort, Bjornstad, Norse Countries, 5:50 PM)

"My liege!", A Viking warrior called out to his King who had been sitting on his throne, eagerly awaiting a sign that Odin-Will, as he called the young man who had bested him in a fight, was wanting his help. The Viking who had some news to tell, given his major excitement, had then made his way to the throne and bowed to the King. "Your Majesty, King Silverbeard Odin-Cloak!" he greeted his King.

"Ah... Where's the Dragon-Fire, Asmund Shield-Basher?", King Odin-Cloak chuckled.

"My liege! It's Odin-Will! He has sent the signal!", the Viking cheered.

"He what?!" Silverbeard shouted.

"Look to the skies, milord! It's his sign!" Asmund confirmed as he motioned his liege to the clearing.

Sure enough, Silverbeard saw the bright red light blinking rapidly in the sky, just a long ways away from his own country. This was indeed the signal that was told by him from the old Seer near the apothecary, as he remembered one day.

"Ahhh-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!! Round up all of our air-ships! Odin-Will has made the call to summon us! We are going to fight a battle of epic proportions!" Odin-Cloak then announced after making his way to announce his plan to the people below. This, in turn, led out a roar of approval by the Valkyrie's and Vikings that had yet to prove themselves in a battle.

"But not without me, dearest," a female voice spoke from behind the King. He looked to his left and saw none other than his wife, Ingrid Song-Raider Odin-Cloak, dressed up in a Valkyrie armor suit that fitted her figure quite well.

"You wish to do battle with us, my love?" he nodded at her, seeing her gorgeous figure underneath the armor.

"I would not have it any other way, my dearest King," Ingrid said to him with a kiss to his scraggly bearded lips.

"Then come along, my dear! We've not much time! Once the Dragons and Griffons get the signal, they'll hog up all of the glory to come in this final battle!" he laughed heartily, knowing that his best allies were also his rivals in combat.

"I have been waiting to long to find out if I die in glorious battle against the enemy today," she smiled as she walked close to her husband while they gathered their weapons.

"If you were to die first, then I'd just be a lonely man with no means of relieving myself," he laughed once again.

"Oh... if only..." she rolled her eyes sarcastically, knowing that he was always so lewd about his life.

"Ha-ha-ha! Ha! Ha!"

(Draconian Throne Room, Rhaccthasaavva, Draconia, 5:50 PM)

In the Dragon Kingdom, Fiery Carbuncle had seen the same signal, along with the royalty near him.

"Fiery!" the Dragon King growled next to his Courier.

"Yes, my gracious Majesty?" Fiery saluted to him.

"Call up all of the warriors who are willing to help the lands of Equestria, and Dragon-Soul!" the King commanded him.

"And make haste with the flights, Carbuncle! We do not wish for the Vikings and Griffons to steal the victories of this battle!" the Dragon Queen sneered happily, knowing that the natives of the land would heed the call of the Dragon royalty.

"At once, your Majesties!" Fiery bowed to them in compliance before flying off to the royal summoning platform. "Hagaracckt, Vrrashh-Dhavaraough!!(To all Dragon warriors available, make your way to Equestria! We fight with the Dragon-Soul!)", he growled to his fellow subjects. They also roared with pride as he did as the drakes had taken flight from the ground to ascend towards the skies.

(Griffinstone, Gryphon Kingdom, 5:50 PM)

"Hey, listen up, dweebs!" Gilda yelled out to the citizens while standing in front of the Griffon Emperor. "We're all being called up to fight with Sterling Caliber of the Royal Elites! And as of now, the Dragons and Vikings are making their way to the country of Equestria! And they're gonna rub it in our faces if we don't fight the Rex Brutes! So let's tear us up some baddies before we reap the rewards!" she announced to her whole country people.

"And if you all do this, whatever wealth you gain from the enemy is yours!" the Emperor spoke up, adding a form of motivation to the speech.

"Yeah, that too!" Gilda nodded.

The griffon and hippogriff people shouted out with a screech that echoed out to the heavens as the volunteers took flight from the ground.

"I hope Rainbow will be there, 'cause she is gonna owe me one for this," Gilda snickered.

"But don't let the memories of the past get in the way of your path to victory, young Gilda," the Emperor spoke to her.

"Ughh... Yes, my lord," Gilda saluted to him with a sarcastic tone before taking her flight up to the skies.

(United Stirrupean Islands Conference Building, 5:50 PM)

The representatives from the Leo-Gar Highlands, the Stirrupean Islands, the Neighponiese Mass and the many other countries that shaped the world of Equius then saw the same signal in the skies. And they all wanted to help the Royal Elite fight off against the Rex Brutes.

"Are we all in agreement, fellow representatives and delegates?" the head judge asked, once he heard the silence of the gathered crowd within the room.

"We must call upon the emergency aides to the Royal Elites!" one of the representatives called out, increasing the volume of the sounds of agreements in the room. "Captain Sterling Caliber, of Equestria, has saved our nations more than enough times for all of us to even count!" the person further shouted.

"But the other three ancient kingdoms must already be on the move if that signal has just been sent now," another person pointed out. "It would be useless for us to help them unless they call for our help," they then said, hearing murmurs of compliance from their speech.

"Nevertheless, we must give our aid to the people who are in need! And especially the Royal Elite named Sterling Caliber!" a third party shouted out, causing an uproar that spoke in agreement, deafening the sound of the gavel being frantically pounded.

And from the many beaches and ports, the massive amount of citizens, who were already free to leave the fight to the others, had begun to start their advance towards where the battle would take place. And even the Chameleon colonies, unknown to many though they were, had begun to see the courage and become inspired to fight with the Equestrians.

(Solar Wing, Royal Castle, Canterlot, Equestria, 17:50 PM)

Looking down below to the lands beyond, Sterling was able to see the town of Ponyville from a distant cloud of dust and smoke. This had made his mood go sour, failing to believe that he could have saved his home from the inevitable destruction of the invading armies as he watched the land being pillaged from the porch near the window of his room within the Solar Wing of the castle. But even then, he knew that there were no lives lost, unlike when the Dire Wolves attacked more than a month ago.

Unlike the last time, he was able to take every last one of the citizens from the small town to the emergency shelters within the capital city of Canterlot. Including the small children. And with the Royal Elites reinforced with old friends who reunited with their former unit for a last fight with the Brutes, Sterling could sense a ray of hope within him, even as Princess Celestia had begun to lower the sun in order for her younger sister, Princess Luna, to raise the moon. Even though he wasn't as attracted to Fluttershy, Rarity & Applejack, he still felt (as any normal Equestrian male always felt) that the Princesses of the sun and the moon were very beautiful to bestow. And seeing the same moon go up after the sun went down was just as great to see from any distance in the world.

"Darling? Are you alright?" Rarity called up from within the room.

"Hmm? Oh! Yes, Rarity," Sterling called back, knowing that the lady wanted him back into the room. "Coming in," he said to her while seeing the other two ladies in the room as they all did their thing. "Just wanted to see Princess Luna do a bit of her great work," he explained to them with a confident smile on him.

"Ah see," Applejack grinned. "Tell me, sugar, do ya like seein' the Princess' do their work? Or somethin' else that's gotcha eye?" she asked him teasingly. This query got the other two girls to blush as she saw Sterling look like he was about to babble.

"Uh... w-w-well, I uh... heh-heh...."

"Oh, Sterling-dear, you needn't feel ashamed," Rarity smirked at him. "It's only natural that Celestia and Luna are both a part of the people's minds. Even in some erotic fantasy, hmm?" she whispered at the last part, causing him to madly blush.

"Now that's just not nice of you to say to him, girls," Fluttershy scolded them softly. "Besides, um... I-I think that, um... our man isn't going to go after them, even in his most wild of fantasies," she deduced while averting her head away from the group.

"Ugh, finally! Someone understands me," Sterling commented under his breath while keeping his eye on Fluttershy. "Look: I may have those types of dreams from time to time, but I don't act on them because even I know that I wouldn't be the kind of suitor for any of them. Besides, Cadence is taken & Twilight isn't even looking for a relationship at the moment," he told them after having himself a moment to think about his words carefully.

"But um... do those dreams, uh... have anything explicit in them?" Fluttershy asked him as the other girls looked at him.

Seeing as there was no way out of the question with a lie, he looked at them with the same serious look that he always gave to anyone if he was not going to be a liar about some question.

"I still do have those passing fantasies about the same Princesses, including Twilight, getting some hot foreplay action with the three of you before it got even further," he admitted to them as his face had burned up with the prospect of seeing his new girlfriends do that with the royalty. "But as it would get even farther, I would just wake up with something that I still find a reason to chastise myself for having," he explained while feeling the back of his legs being pushed to the covered mattress.

"And were we all... giving tongue to them?" Rarity asked seductively while rubbing her left hand on his pectorals.

"Almost everywhe- whoa!" he yelled out as he felt the bed hit his back. "Oh, Goddesses! Fixer warned me about this! This is..." Sterling panicked in his mind as he saw the three women gather around him in various places near him on the bed. "Hold it!!" he shouted, stopping the girls immediately.

"What is it, Sterling?" Applejack asked him as she saw the surprised apprehension in his face.

"Are you...? Oh, Goddesses... Are you all... at your peak?" he then asked the ladies surrounding him. The girls then gasped in shock as they realized what they were about to do if he hadn't stopped them right there.

From what Sterling was able to figure out from the situation at hand, the signs of the 'peak' had been as stated by Fixer from his earlier memories. When an individual woman starts to reach the highest level of desire for their mate, male or female, the first sign is to watch their body language. The second is to listen in on their choice vernacular. The third part to take caution of was the nearly forceful way of subduing their mate. And the final part, as Sterling had been able to prevent from happening (though it wouldn't be for long, as he found out), would be the shedding of their clothes before the final act could commence.

And as Sterling's train of thought had stopped to come back to reality, he saw the embarrassed and saddened faces of his girlfriends as a few tears were streaming down from their eyes. He then realized that this emotional peaking had been halted by his poor choice of words.

"Oh, no! Sterling, we're so sorry! We're so sorry! We're so sorry!" Fluttershy sobbed as she hid her face with her hands while feeling the tears run down her face. "We... w-we just... want- no, need this! And all of us agreed that our first time would be with you," she cried out to him as she buried her face into his chest. The only thing that Sterling could do was to wrap his arms around her back as he stroked her pink hair.

"Plus, the thought of not doin' it with ya ain't that great ta think about, ya know," Applejack concurred as she wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders lovingly while wiping her own tears on his left shoulder.

"And we all agreed that we would be gentle with you if you are willing to let us make a man out of you," Rarity added to the conversation while kissing his right cheek. "And the reason for why we asked you those questions is because of how we know that you love us, darling. But we will not pressure you into this, dear. If you don't wish to have your way with all of us right now, then we shall respect that wish," she added to her assuring message to him.

"Have... my way with... all of them?" he thought to himself while peering his head up to look at the ladies who blushed from being looked at. "That....... is...... IIIITTTT!!!" he resolved right then and there. His girls wanted to make a man out of him, and he wanted to do the same. But he was not going to just jump right in, unlike the many battles that marked his life's resume.

"Girls?" he announced silently to them.

"Yes, Sterling?" all three of the girls asked.

"I have to confess something to all of you..."

.....

(Meanwhile, in the Throne Room....)

"Sister?" Luna spoke up as she sat herself on the throne next to Celestia.

"Yes, Luna?" the Sun Princess replied.

"These friends that the Captain mentioned..."

"Yes?"

"We wonder if they all have some... debt to our brave soldier," Luna speculated as she remembered the events that rolled in from the beginning of his arrival.

"It's no question, Lulu. Because even I believe that Sterling has had himself an adventurous life. But, he would not have become the man that he is by slacking off in the field," Celestia nodded. "And by the time that the clock strikes 7:00 tonight, Sterling will have completed the final step in his growing relationship with his girlfriends," she smiled with her eyes half-lidded.

"Tia? Are thou-- you suggesting that our Captain will...?" Luna asked before feeling her face grow red with shock.

"Indeed, sister. He will become a new man during this night."

.....

(Back at Sterling's room....)

"So... yer a virgin, right?" Applejack quipped.

"Yep," Sterling nodded shamefully.

"And you've never had a girlfriend in your whole life?" Rarity chipped in.

"Correct."

"And you never felt this way about us until two months ago?" Fluttershy asked as well.

"Never."

An awkward silence filled the room for about two minutes until the Captain decided to speak up again.

"Please don't kill me for saying that, but it's all because of how I've been desiring to have the first time be more romantic, and not as the final battle for Equestria looms over us," Sterling pleaded softly to the girls next to him. "Even I knew that the first time with a woman should be slow and romantic, not quick and empty," he shook his head, remembering how some of his unit members would boast about being quick with the bedroom games. "And... I... wanted my first time to be at my home, and not at some random room within the palace," he further confessed to them. What he saw from the ladies around him was not apprehension. But a rather sultry look.

"Sterling-sugar, we can still have a great night with ya, even if it ain't what ya expected," Applejack cooed to him while gently rubbing his chest with her hand. "And Ah promise ya, hon, that we'll all make this a night to remember," she then said while adding a kiss to his left cheek.

"And as the one with more experience on this subject," Rarity interjected, "we shan't skimp out on making this night memorable for you. And all of us." And after kissing his right cheek, she then looked to Fluttershy. "And I believe that the perfect candidate for your first time is right in front of us, my love."

"Oh, um... y-y-yes... I do want to be the one to give you my virginity, Sterling," Fluttershy said to him softly with a small nod.

"And so do Ah," Applejack said to him.

"So! What does the man say?" Rarity smirked as she stroked his stomach, causing a slight giggle to come out of his throat.

"You know what? ....Let's just make this an epic time for all of us!" Sterling nodded after taking a while to think about it.

"Yay," Fluttershy cheered cutely as she moved closer to him. And after giving him a long hug, thanking him in a low whisper to his ear, she then proceeded to fully kiss him on the lips. And as Sterling lowered himself so that he was on his back, he allowed himself to surrender to the incoming romantic passion that was about to being with all four participants in the room.

"I love you ladies...." he muttered to them as the daze of his passion took over his rational thoughts.

"We love you, too, Sterling," they all whispered back to them.

All three women had become warmly affected by his solemn confession to them. And as they tried to find any deceit in his words, to no avail, there was only one thing that the ladies decided to allow him to do the one thing. Fluttershy had blushed a vermilion red, as did Rarity and Applejack, because of how they all wished for their true love to take the final step with them. Not for the sake of fulfilling some wanton desire. Not for sake of humiliation. And not for the sake of enacting a simple act that everyone desires to do.

But their biggest wish, out of everything they could ever want, was to give him the right to proclaim to the world of Equius that his true feelings for the both of them to be revealed. And as Fluttershy pulled him up from the bed, Sterling had seen the same look that he saw on her. This was proven to be right as the trio had taken their turns with kissing him full on the lips with a higher passion.

But as he had guessed, Fluttershy had silently begged for permission to allow her tongue to enter his mouth. And with a small chuckle, Sterling allowed her wet muscle to invade his mouth. His own tongue had danced softly along with hers, causing them to moan loudly with each other in a cacophony that was sweet for the both of them to hear as the wet smacks had grown louder while Sterling had begun to gently squeeze her breasts in his hands, making her moan a little louder. The same feelings that he felt from his first kiss with her had soon been heightened by many levels as his tongue massaged hers in the most intimate way possible.

And after what felt like an eternity, his lips and tongue had departed from Fluttershy's own mouth. He then looked to Rarity, who was waiting patiently for him to deliver the same action to her. Sterling needed no further invitation as his raging hormones had taken control of him when his mouth went back to doing what was being done before. But as the same ministrations were being made, his hands had glided down to squeeze Rarity's lower cheeks and thighs in a gentle way. This action had given the posh lady a reason to moan just as loudly as her other lover did. Rarity then lifted a leg and wrapped it around his waist, shrinking her skirt to a smaller size to allow Fluttershy an invitation to go behind her and start smooching on her shoulder blades and neck. This made her giggle as she soon made out with her two lovers while standing up after parting herself from the man to give the same tongue action to the pink-haired beauty behind her.

The minutes that the trio had taken felt more like the Heavens on Equius than anything they had ever felt in their lives. And as their tongues had been dancing in a three-way tango of passion, Sterling then parted himself away from them for a moment to catch his breath. Rarity and Fluttershy took his cue after seeing him panting heavily and breathed the oxygen that they needed. When Sterling gathered his composure, he embraced the two women in their shared silence and motioned for them to follow him to where they could take the final level in their rather unique relationship.

But before he could do that, the Captain then turned his attention to the Equian farmer girl next to them and beckoned her over in silence. Applejack then moved towards him and began to nearly shove her mouth into his, enacting a hard kiss that set the hearts of the pair to burn up while Rarity and Fluttershy had begun to kiss each other just as passionately. The sounds of the women near him had made his hands venture to the waistline of his kisser's denim shorts before digging in deep enough to feel the soft flesh beneath the panties. And Applejack was in no mood to protest against his squeezing, choosing only to encourage him to continue as she parted herself from him to slowly take off her plaid shirt and orange bra in front of him.

As the diamond and butterfly marked ladies noticed what their shared love interest was doing, they voted to do the same. While they undid their clothing, they each remembered what they all wanted from this experience.

For Fluttershy, her very deepest desire of sharing this moment with both Sterling, Rarity and Applejack had finally arrived for her. And the chance to show her love to both the man and the women of her dreams, while fulfilling her depraved fantasies with them, was now in her grasp. As for Rarity, she had craved for even more of her loving man and women in the relationship while giving all of her heart and soul to them all. And as every fantasy had passed through her mind, she looked at her true loves with a romantic passion that she had not felt for anyone in her whole life. For Applejack. her chance to be with her dream man was going to last in her dreams for an eternity. Even if it meant sharing him, she would allow herself to have this moment, given that she always had a girl crush on the caretaker and seamstress. And for Sterling, this was not just a means of losing his virginity to two very hot women for him. This moment, as he had only dreamed of having for a long time, was the pinnacle to making himself a real man. And not just for himself, but for all of the world to know from looking at him.

Sterling then waved a hand to start using his magic. His shirt had been neatly stacked on top of the wardrobe as he sighed contently at the fact that he was going to have some real fun with the ladies in his room. His gaze then turned to the women near his bed kissing deeply into each others mouths. This still turned him on, knowing that he had hit the jackpot with three gorgeous girls in his room. As he looked down to take off his shoes and socks, he heard the footsteps of his lovely girls going up to him. After taking off the last shoe and sock from his feet, he looked up to see Fluttershy looking at him with the same pair of eyes that spoke to him about her desire to be with him. He saw Rarity coming in close to him, along with Applejack, and saw the same look on them. They all wanted this, more than anything in the world.

Both the fashionista, the farmer girl and the veterinarian had looked at the war veteran with the big need to have their itches scratched by him. Just as much as he wanted to turn over his virginity to them. As he looked deep into their beautiful eyes, the same question that he was asking them in his silence had been answered. It was if the women could trust him with what he had wished of them. They smiled at him, saying to him in equal silence that they trusted him completely with his wishes.

The man then began to kiss the pink-haired, teal-eyed woman fully on her lips with a deep movement that the lady in front of him could slightly match, given that this was going to be her first time ever. And the male in the quartet noticed this along with the seamstress. After pulling himself from her, he turned to the purple-haired, sapphire blue-eyed lady and began to give the same passionate gestures to her, to which she happily obliged with her arms fully wrapping around him as their kisses had gotten deeper. When that was done, he grabbed the gold-blond haired, green eyed Applejack and pulled her towards him to kiss her. She received it well as her man's hands had groped her lower cheeks. And after ten steamy minutes of making out with his beautiful girls, he motioned them to join him on the bed. And they soon followed him with their model bodies on top of his, straddling his hips with a hunger that he also shared with them.

Before he could be given the pleasure of fully consummating his new relationship with them, Sterling then got the lustful idea of taking both Fluttershy and Rarity's breasts and start sucking the nipples after moving the clothing up to their necks, causing the ladies to gasp loudly before moaning from how firm yet gentle he was with his flicking and sucking. He had become quite happy with how he was able to get them wet down below, but he waited until he was satisfied that all of the ladies' breasts had been attended to, including the farm girl's mounds. After taking a few moments to simultaneously switch between the chest mounds of his girls, he then stopped his actions to allow the girls to kiss him as sloppily as he did back. The hormones of the quartet had already peaked, but they all wanted the moment to last for a long time.

With the sound of his boxers coming down while also hearing the sounds of their bra's and panties' being taken off, Sterling, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack had been taken down to only wearing their birthday suits. The ladies looked at what their shared boyfriend was gifted with and had both smiled widely at what they saw. His manhood stood up at a perfect ten inches with a thick girth that was 1 inch in mass, much to his surprise, and he was just ready to be given access to the pleasure that he never had at all. When he laid down on his back once again, Fluttershy started to go down on him first, hoping to be the first to make her move on him. Rarity and A.J. saw her rather aggressive move and moved aside so that they could see her friend begin the final step of the foreplay for their man.

Sterling then allowed his muscles to relax as he felt the jolt of electricity flowing through him as Fluttershy's mouth had opened up to allow her tongue to lick on the tip of his shaft before slowly moving down on the length until it finally reached his sack. With a few swirls of her tongue, the veterinarian sucked gently on the sack, causing her shared man to involuntarily jerk his hips to her. But she was not offended, choosing only to continue sucking on him as she savored the musk that emanated from him. But at that very moment, she wanted to do more for him. And after finishing with her first part, Fluttershy then licked the length up and down for a few moments before feeling that she was ready to fully take him. When she reached the tip, Sterling felt the same wet muscle licking around his tip, sending a small jet of his pre-cum to her face by accident. But as he was about to say sorry, the lady then began to wrap her mouth around the tip before slowly bobbing her head up and down on his whole shaft.

The pleasure that Sterling was feeling from Fluttershy's actions had sent him traveling to a new level of excitement as he had reveled in the delightful pleasure that coursed right through him. Any sentences or words had escaped him along with any rational thought from how great the feeling was. He looked down to where she was and saw that she was really enjoying the blow-job that she was giving him. The same lady looked up with hungry eyes on him and went even faster and harder with both her hand and her mouth.

But as they both relished in the pleasure that was felt between them, Rarity had looked to them with a feeling of neglect as she was wanting oh-so-badly to join her lovers. With a small whine escaping her, she saw both Fluttershy and Sterling look back at her and they both became concerned with leaving her out. Rarity then showed how embarrassed she was before looking to where her man's shaft was still standing proudly. Then, she looked to her loving partner and begged with sultry eyes to join the action. She was then allowed to participate in the activity when her loving harem partner called her over with a finger from her free hand while she kept her mouth on him. Rarity then moved down to where she wanted to be at and saw her lover pull out Sterling's cock from her mouth with a pop that echoed through the room. And after seeing the manhood getting rubbed a few more times, Rarity then took the initiative and slowly began her own oral worship on the man below her.

Now, the pleasure was doubled as both of the babes had bobbed up and down, taking their turns with him. And as they did so, Applejack had begun to administer her job as well, just as her breasts had pressed against his thigh. But as the final point of release had come up to him, Sterling felt his resistance crumbling as jet after jet of his hot and sticky seed began to splash on the women's faces. By the seventh stream, the ladies began to lick the seed off of each other, enticing Sterling's manhood to spring back to life just as tall and hard as before. After getting back some thought, along with some of his energy after smelling the musky sweat that was made by all three of the maidens near him, Sterling then pulled himself up as he laid the shy caretaker down in order to better position himself on top of her.

Rarity and A.J. had seen how Sterling wanted to be on top of Fluttershy and allowed it to happen for him. But as he had gotten ready, the proper woman had taken his rod and helped him get to where he needed to go. With the saliva and the unattended ladycum acting as a natural lubricant for them. the ten-inch shaft had slowly yet easily entered into the wet, velvety walls of Fluttershy's eagerly waiting honeypot. When he felt the hymen within the veterinarian break, he had stopped moving himself so that he could allow Fluttershy to adjust to his size. She had cried a small tear from how much of a gentleman he actually was with her, feeling quite happy with her male lover's altruism. And after she beckoned him to continue, he gently pushed in and out of her to allow the pleasure to take over the pain. Within seconds, the pleasure took over them both.

Fifteen minutes was the exact amount of time that it took for Sterling to finally release his hot and messy load into his girl, Fluttershy, thus completing his quest to lose his virginity to one of the ladies. And after feeling his energy come back, he turned to Rarity, who was just as eager to be filled up by him. And after seeing to it that she was boosted back up, Rarity took his manhood into her and began to take over as she sat on top of his lap. And with a few movements, she had moaned his name, just as Fluttershy did, when Sterling placed his hands on her lower cheeks to help her out. During the motions, Rarity commented between breaths about how he was such a gentleman. But after feeling the pressure of the orgasm coming around, both she and Sterling began to grunt and moan like wild animals, much against her ladylike behavior.

Another fifteen minutes passed by, and Rarity was left as nothing but a shaking, shivering mess that groaned how she loved the activity between them while going up to Fluttershy, kissing her deeply as the man and farmer girl got ready. And as Applejack positioned herself, she felt her own hymen braking as she slowly fitted Sterling's cock into her walls. And after adjusting to the size of his shaft, she then proceeded to ride his member for the impending orgasm while the other girls were busy attending to each other with a 69, thus allowing Sterling to perk up even more energy as he suddenly rose up while holding her close to him.

The same time-frame for the other girls had passed by with Applejack shuddering his name while feeling the seed of his member dampening her walls. But even then, she was not going to allow herself to just lose herself to the afterglow that all the others were feeling. And even Sterling, as she saw, agreed with her completely.

After an hour and fifteen minutes of pleasing his ladies in the orgy that followed through, Sterling then took a moment to get a breather as he used some of his magic to open the window to circulate some fresh air into his room. After feeling the breeze get the stench out, he then closed the window and turned his half-lidded eyes to the women. They gasped loudly when they each felt his gentle touch while they all basked in the afterglow. And Sterling, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy had engaged in many sexual activities that marked the cornerstone of their newly elevated relationship. It may have felt rushed to them all, but they all made it a point in arguing that going fast was more on the line of Rainbow Dash's ways. The ladies wanted to set their new loving relationship in stone when they each did their part with one another while Sterling had reveled in the fact that he was now going to love them even more. But as he smiled at the ladies who had taken their naps at his sides, he then had a thought running through his head.

What he truly desired, even more than his need to have sex with one or all three of them at a time, was to let the ladies in his new life know that his love for them is as great, but even more so from the bottom his heart, as the power of Princess Celestia's sun and Princess Luna's moon. It was quite true that the many sexual adventures ahead would be presented to him, and he did look forward to what they would plan for him in the future. But that was only second place to the desire that burned greatly in him. What truly kept him going was how he was now going to able.... to spoil them with romantic trips and cruises along with a whole bunch of truly expensive gifts that they had truly deserved to receive.

.....

(7:30 PM)

When the time had been announced by the clock tower near the castle, almost all of the citizens in the city had either been evacuated or taken to the emergency shelters. Celestia was now in the war room, joined by Twilight, Cadence and Luna to oversee the possible ways of trapping the enemy into the city. Along with the royal women, there was also Shining Armor, Cadence's husband, who was also putting in his opinion on how certain strategies might go against some others.

The three Princesses and the Prince had already been discussing the tactics that could work for them when Twilight and Sterling had entered the room.

"Your Highness', I have arrived, just as you ordered on time," Sterling bowed to the women.

"We welcome thee to the war room, young Caliber," Luna greeted him.

"And we are thrilled that you could make it here, Captain," Celestia followed along in the greeting. Sterling could only salute her, knowing that she was indeed thrilled by his arrival.

"I just pay attention to what my superiors want me to do and hear when we aren't speaking of tactics that are just too out there. Even the most improperly trained soldier or warrior can see what you are hoping to accomplish, and none of them will not go by the tactical supremacy of the Rex Brutes," Sterling noted to them, pointing to the little toys being used to indicate what goes where on the overall map of the land of Canterlot.

"Now see here, young man!", an elderly-looking man grunted out. "What would you know about the strategy of evacuating all of the people in the city?" he then asked Sterling.

"Only this: You can't expect every citizen to go along with the sewer lines," Sterling replied to the man as he pointed at the cylindrical lines on the maps. "If all of the citizens went there, then the enemy Shadow-Walkers will use the people as bait for their Highness' to surrender their titles and rules, if they don't kill them first. Which is what four of the enemy leaders want, unlike the King Brute who just so happens to have more.... nihilistic views of the world," he then spoke to the people in front of him while moving the citizen icon back to the ground drawing.

"So what would you advise, Captain Caliber?", Shining Armor asked him, feeling the same motivation that he felt when he was only a Captain himself.

"Even I am curious as to what you would wish of us, Sterling," Celestia confessed, hoping to not listen to the elderly man once again. The same man from before had conceded that he was not needed at this time.

"Well, this is what I believe should work, with added emphasis on should," Sterling began as he laid out the little icons in a certain order. "Not only are we in need of the Royal Guards at full strength to hold the lines within the city, but we also need the Armed Forces, including a few garrisons of the Marines and the Army to reinforce them entirely. Before we do that, however, the same forces will benefit even more if we can rally any man and woman who is willing to fight for their rulers. One of the Brutes' biggest irks comes from when the people start fighting for their Princesses."

He then pointed with a little bit of magic to move some of the pieces on the map. "And as the heavy artillery is placed on the north, south and east walls, we will have Magicians using their spells to enchant the ammunition to make a bigger explosion against the enemies' numbers. And all while having crossbow bolts and spears enchanted as well. But there are also some militia that are in desperate need of some proper training in the ways of discipline and strategy. They may have been lucky with resisting the campaign against my charges so far, but I cannot condone when people are more reckless than I have been," Sterling sighed at the last part.

"Thou? Reckless?", Luna asked, confused by his own iteration.

"I can actually see that coming from you, 'cause it does sound quite familiar," Cadence confessed with a slightly smug grin while also turning her attention to her husband, who felt his cheeks turn a slight pink.

"I have also asked Princess Twilight, pending with your blessings, that the former Element bearers be allowed to fight alongside her. I do not wish for them to be left behind, because doing so is more cowardly than seeing any man or woman die in the battlefield. But I can only place them in certain areas that I know will be beneficial to the cause," Sterling interjected for his ability to get back to business. "But along with the strategies that I've proposed to you, I have just one last idea that I know will help out your forces immensely, Your Highness'."

"And that would be.... what?" Twilight asked him.

With his heart getting heavier, Sterling lowered his head in silent contemplation. The bold strategy move that he wanted to plan out against his enemies had only been used when it was a last resort. An ace in the hole that only so few people were willing to use. But it was at the cost that he was more than likely to die, along with all of his unit.

"Sterling?", the royal group called to him from the other side of the room.

The Captain of the Royal Elites was going to use the most suicidal, the most risky, and yet the most effective and efficient way to greatly damage both the morale and the great numbers of the enemy campaign.

"I, along with my small unit leading the militia, wish to use the Illudium-5 formation," Sterling announced to the group.

The suggestion had made both Celestia and Luna look at him with their eyes widening with a greatly presented fear. It seemed that the young Captain wanted to use a methodical strategy that kills almost all of the people who made the formation. This was the ultimate form of guerrilla tactics that was once used in the beginning times of Equius War One. This was a last-resort formation that utilized the strongest and fastest shooters to take down a larger number of enemy soldiers that once opposed the land of Equestria when all the regular forces had only stuck to their own disciplines while the artillery was only to be used against the last waves. To do this required god-like amounts of luck because of how greatly impossible it is for the common man or woman to take down a whole garrison without being spotted.

It was within the dead silence of the room that Sterling took note to say to them the only reason for employing his plan.

"If I don't do this, along with my unit, then there will just be no chance for your armies to win this final battle of the war, my great sovereigns. But even I know, with a heavy heart, that I could die from making this tactic work. But I have always planned ahead." Sterling then grinned before turning up a small pendant on his chest that had a microscopically smaller ruby in the center of it. "I've already called upon the many allies that I have made during my time outside of Equestria."

He then saw that the royalty before him, as the light within was still blinking for all to see, had begun to form a curious look.

"And even as we speak, while the Rex Brutes advance towards us, those same allies will be taking their contingents to aid us in our war..."

(At the outskirts of Ponyville....)

"My lord!" a scout Rex Brute called up from the ranks to Leviathan, who was sitting on the moving throne chair that worked with slave labor.

"Speak!" Leviathan growled.

"Everything you wished of me to find out was correct, my lord! Blueblood has completed his weapon! And Sterling Caliber is in the city, conspiring with those hypocritical rulers!" the scout reported.

When Leviathan refused to acknowledge the warrior, he charged up a spell from his hand and killed the man on the spot as the corpse was blasted from his face.

"It is time.... that I sent my personal message to the Captain..." he laughed malevolently as a black crystal had been produced from seemingly out of nowhere. And as he lifted the stone from his hand via magic, a small pouch had wrapped around it as the package was sealed up in a second. And with a final wave of his hand, the package went shooting towards where the intended person of interest would likely be at. "And now that I have done this, Sterling will play into my hands...."
