In the few months Raven and Copper have been dating their sexcapades seemed to almost happen left and right... And up and down... And everything in between... Ever since their first experiment since their first date, it seemed like every time they were alone, they got frisky. There was a lot of groping, casual nudity, mutual masturbation, and sex of course. Most of it happened at Copper’s dorm when his roommate was gone, but there were a few times they did it in her room at the castle, since she didn't have much to do and since Celestia was in court or was mostly busy, they had the time. Other times during their breaks between or after classes, they would sneak off to their little hidey hole and make love.

It was a few months into their relationship during the spring when the temperature began to increase, and when Copper’s roommate was gone for a day or for the weekend, Raven would go and spend time with him, often closing the door so that they could relax in their underwear. Even in the heat they would snuggle together on his beanbag chair while they read papers or worked on homework. But being that scantily clad, it wouldn't take long for hands to wander. Her hand would sneak down his shorts and she’d jerk him off while he’d repay her love with a hand down her panties and finger her. Then she’d suck him off and he’d eat her out before they'd finally just strip naked and take each other on whatever position seemed interesting.

They were horny teenagers, nothing new, really.

It wasn’t until one hot afternoon, when the Canterlot Weather Team had gone on strike due to some sort of law, regulation, or rule that the team didn't like, that the princess and her consort came to the realization that they may need to tone down the amount of sex they were having. It was during their first experience with anal that everything came crashing down. There they were, buck ass nude, soaked in sweat, with Copper buried balls deep in her ass and on the verge of orgasm, that Copper’s roommate suddenly came home mush earlier than he said. Only to find Copper mercilessly thrusting into his princess from behind on his bean bag chair while they faced the door. Thankfully it was only Copper’s roommate and nopony else that witnessed the sound of Copper's testicles wetly slapping Raven's clit with each thrust. In their panic at the sight, Raven blasted the poor stallion out the door and slammed it before she shouted at Copper to finish.

He did, much to his immediate embarrassment.

She did too, showering his swollen nuts in her cum with the second most powerful orgasm of her life. She swore that he suddenly got harder and came twice as much. As embarrassing as it was, she relished in the feeling of his warm essence deep in her belly. They were defiantly going to do more of that, but that was not going to have a second round after that incident. But she was sure that the second round came along with the first one.

They were quick to extricate themselves from one another and get dressed before letting the more enthusiastic and proud stallion in the room. He had nothing but praise for Copper. Unfortunately for the tan stallion, Copper had this strange personality, as he liked to put it. He was easily embarrassed and often rather quiet. But when his girlfriend was around, there was something about her that made him just want to have sex with her. Perhaps it was instinct, or maybe something else, he wasn’t sure. All he knew was that he absolutely loved sex.

This morning's debauchery was no different. Especially when it ended up happening alongside Cadance and Shining Armor in the royal bath. It was originally supposed to be only them until the other young royal accident stumbled into the room. One thing led to another and suddenly the pink princess wanted to know more about the act of love making, as it were. Cadance was a bit too eager to learn about sex and considering it was downright hot to essentially have an orgy and even go as far as sharing partners. At the end of it all, Raven and Copper left the more intimate pair of ponies to have their fun in the sauna as the naked teens headed back towards Raven’s room to get dressed through the hidden passage way that lead to the bath.

“Well that happened…” Copper blushed as he entered his marefriend’s room and headed towards her bed where his gym bag sat. The two teens had originally spent the morning together in the castle’s gym having a workout session together before they decided to go and bathe. But they had their fun and now it was time to hit the town!

As he grabbed his bag and unzipped it, reaching inside to grab his clothes, Raven stepped past him and headed towards a dresser next to her closet and began to grab her attire for the day. “You liked it though, didn’t you?” she teased as he blushed further, averting his gaze he looked towards the floor. Raven smiled, dropping the clothing she had grabbed as she padded her way towards him, pressing her bountiful chest against his shoulders as she hugged him from behind. “I know I did~” she whispered into his ear before she nibbled it lightly between her canines.

Now that it was all said and done, he was starting to second question his actions. He got caught up in both the moment and his seemingly uncontrollable hormones. Raven could sense his internal turmoil, so she squeezed him a little tighter, pressing her body further into his, pressing her delicious bosom and stiff nipples against his back. She started to sway back and forth, leading him to an invisible beat to try and calm him down a little. "I love you and only you," she promised while she rubbed his chest with her right hand. "All that was a simple experiment of sexuality. Nothing more. Shining love's Cadance just as much as I love you and vice versa. We never have to do it again." She paused in thought for a moment. "I think I only proposed it is because I trust them as much as I do."

Copper set down the pair of underwear he had been holding and turned around, grasping her by the shoulders and looking deep into her pale eye. He never really realized how blind she actually looked with the white pigment. She was right, he loved her regardless of the fact that he busted a nut inside the Princess of Love…

Shit, he's banged two princesses now!

He was pretty sure the hearts in stallions across the country had just shattered. Banging one princess was an achievement in and of itself. But fucking two of them? He would be considered a god to every high school ale everywhere! But in that moment, all he wanted to focus on was her. Copper had a lot of things he could have said in that moment, but only one came to mind as his gaze drifted towards her missing eye and the patch the metal patch covered it. "Can I see you?" he asked vaguely.

Raven blinked and cocked her head slightly in confusion. "I don't follow."

"You," he repeated, pointing to her missing eye. "I want to see the real you."

She blushed and averted her gaze while she ran her fingers over her ear, pushing some of her still damp hair over her shoulder. "Are… are you sure?" she asked sheepishly while gazing back up at him. "It's not pretty."

His gaze drifted down her bare body as her many scars that covered her body, which glistened in the sunlight that poured into the room from the balcony window. Some of them were small, mere scratches and scraps, while others were bigger like the one she received from almost half a decade ago while another snaked across the underside of her right breast and came to a stop several centimeters above her belly button. She had several lateral scars down her legs and a pair down the length of back starting from her shoulder blades down to just above her buttocks. She never let them get the better of her though, often rocking a bikini when she can. Comparative to him, she wasn’t very self-conscious. He had a small scar on his upper arm, and he hid it all the time, never wanting to explain the short story that went with it. But she rocked them like a trophy! To him, she was the most beautiful creature in the universe. But he had never seen what was under that patch. “Can I? Please?”

She trusted him, right?

“O-Okay,” she mumbled as she suddenly became very self-conscious of her appearance before she dipped her head, her gorgously long hair spilling over her shoulders and covering her face for a moment. In turn, both of her hands went to her face as she started to remove the only bit of ‘clothing’ she had left on. Her hands quickly pulled away as she lifted her head. She set her patch down on her nightstand while her long flowing hair covered her mutilated eye. “Last chance,” she warned.

He gave her the tiniest of reassuring smiles as he braced himself for the horror that might follow. But he was going to be strong, for her. Gingerly, she grasped her hair and pulled it aside. The skin around her eye and eye lids was black and charred like the visible spots that spilled out from underneath her patch. It was no different than what he saw on a daily basis, only it covered the entirety around her eyes. It was her actual eye that was the worst. Her eyelids were scarred and tattered, indicating that it was cut by something sharp and jagged. Her remaining eye was the worst. It was mutilated, glazed over and covered in scars that had long since healed. She blushed adorably as she tried to hide her face behind her hair, rubbing the tips of her toes against the floor.

“I understand if it scares you… but-MHM! Mhmmm~”

He was quick to cut off her self-doubt by silencing her rant with a passionate kiss. She moaned into his mouth as he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her tight against his body, relishing the feeling of her bare skin against his fur. Her eyes fluttered as she rubbed her bare body against his own, shivering at the feeling of his fur tickling against her still sensitive nipples. Their tongues danced to the song of love as she lifted her right leg, rubbing the back of her calf against his own. He was quick to support her thigh with his hand, pulling her even closer as she began to shamelessly grind her clitoris and hood against the underside of his now hard shaft, smearing her juices along the underside with each pass.

They broke their kiss out of the necessity to breath, panting as they rested their foreheads together, but never ceasing their pleasurable dry humping as they stared deeply, lovingly into each other's eyes. “I love you, Raven,” Copper spoke softly as he gently lifted his hand and ran the back of his fingers tenderly across her cheek. “You’re beautiful, scars and all.”

She smiled at the love and praise to her inherent beauty and looks. “Thank you,” she thanked softly as she hugged him tighter, but the feeling of his erection poking her in the belly was not to be ignored. “One last round?”

Copper gave her an eager and lustful smile at her mischievousness. “Deal!”

They were quick to separate as she hopped past him and onto the bed, bouncing once before she crawled to the edge, sitting down properly before she slowly, seductively, laid back into the blue silk and lifted her legs, pointing them to the ceiling before she slowly spread her legs to reveal her swollen and eager flower and darker puckered star. “You want to know something?” she asked huskily as she watched him from between her legs.

“What?” he replied as he stepped up, never once breaking eye contact with her drooling slit while he gently grasped her ankles and flopping his erect shaft against her delicate slit, lubricating himself with her warm essence while also making sure to use his medial ring to stimulate her clit, making both of them moan in ecstasy.

“Mhmmm,” she moaned before she palmed her breast, sinking her fingers deep into her fleshy bosom. She opened her fingers and captured her nipples between them, tweaking them as she groped herself. “I can feel it inside me,” she explained, referring to Copper’s seed safe within her womb and Shining’s deep within her rectum. “So warm and safe deep inside me. Churning with each-” she gasped as her words died in her throat when he finally penetrated her. “Fuck me!”

“I am!”

Raven gingerly nursed her drink from her spot next to Copper in her favorite restaurant. Copper continued to lightly munch at his meal as he sat next to the wall while she rested her back against him, casually cured up on the booth, her bowl long since forgotten. She had ravaged her plate like an angry alligator, wolfing her noodle bowl down by the spoonful before she pushed the empty kitchenware forward with a refreshing sigh and a small burp. Copper preferred to go at his meal at a more reserved pace. Especially since he currently had his right arm around her, lovingly holding her like a prized possession.

Which she was.

He smiled as he idly rubbed her full tummy as he continued to read his new book. On their way to their favorite restaurant, they had made a quick stop at the library so that he could grab a book he wanted, even saying hello to a studying Moondancer in the process before they went to get a bite to eat. They were eager to eat as well, especially after several proactive rounds of procreation and burned calories. She smiled around her straw; she could still feel his love sloshing deep within her belly with each little movement she made. Nearby, and unaware to this mornings activities, Raven’s guards munched away at their own meals as Saffron Masala cleaned a nearby table. There weren’t any patrons in the foreign restaurant other than the four present. It was one in the afternoon and after the lunch rush. It didn’t help that the building was located in a relatively obscure location.

“Would you like any desert?” Saffron offered as she approached the young couple with an adorable, yet welcoming smile. Both Raven and Copper lifted their heads and give her their direct attention, shifting their attention to the young mare in her adorable foreign outfit.

“Who am I to refuse,” Raven smiled eagerly. “Copper, sweetie, how about you?” she asked as she tilted her head up to look at him.

He glanced down at her while he swallowed his current mouthful. “Whatever you want, we can share.”

“We’ll do your fried bread,” Raven requested. “It’s to die for!” she praised the young chef as she addressed her coltfriend with an adorable kick of her legs. Saffron was quick to take down their order before she headed over towards the two armored stallions nearby. She took down the order of one on them and refiled the others drink before she went to retrieve the food. Everypony spent the rest of their time in silence as they finished their meal. Raven paid their bill and left a generous tip. Saffron waved the royals off as they exited the building. The young couple intertwined their fingers as they headed off into the busy streets of Canterlot.

There wasn’t much to do in Restaurant Row other than eat. That's what the area was designed for. Much like the market sold trinkets and other merchandise. As they wandered a shout could be heard from down the street. The two teens shared a confusing glance at one another. Now that had their attention. If it was severe enough, Raven had the authority to make key decisions in lieu of her mother. Outside of one of the many restaurants that lined the row, a substantial crowd had gathered in a half circle around the front of one of the main entrance. Concerned and rather curious, Raven released her coltfriend's hand and shoved her way through the crowd while Copper and Raven’s guards followed suit behind her. Once Raven reached the inner circle, she was expecting a fight, but paused when she saw a mare and a stallion arguing. The mare almost looked like a ghost and her plastic surgery only added to the effect. She wore an elegant business suit and a lengthy, dark purple trench coat. The stallion was wearing a casual blue shirt and black dress pants.

“Who is that?” Raven said under her breath.

“Zesty Gourmand,” one mare whispered back as she leaned in towards the princess without taking her gaze away from the action. “She’s an up and coming restaurant critic. Her opinion might as well be law! So far her approval has been life or death between-PRINCESS RAVEN!”

The girl in question recoiled back, reflexively cupping her ear with her right hand and wincing as her eardrum practically exploded inside her skull. Raven quickly shook her head to try and regain her senses as she rubbed her the pain away before she turned and glared at the mare. The purple mare in question smiled sheepishly under the scrutinizing gaze, whispering her apology as she immediately backed away in her embarrassment. Maybe there was a marehole she could climb into and die in? Raven grit her teeth as she continued to rub the ringing sensation from her right ear, before her attention went to the ghoulish mare suddenly approaching her.

“Princess Raven,” the mare greeted in a professional tone. “Perhaps you can help me quell this outrage.”

It wasn't a question, it was clearly a demand.

Raven eyed the mare from hoof to the tip of her hooked nose, clearly noting that for a food critic, she seemed rather emaciated. Then there was that nose! The girl was so amazed by that funny looking schnauze, she struggled to take her gaze away from it. How was that even attractive? The princess was so sure that she could balance a bit on that point. And the way the mare’s cheeks seemed to recess into her face, exposing her cheek bones only served to make the young ruler slightly ill, which also went as far to reminded her of a Grineer Ghoul. How anypony found that attractive, she wasn’t sure. This mare had to be single because there was no way any stallion in their right mind would want to date, let alone marry, that.

“And what outrage would that be?” Raven questioned, ignoring the plethora of insults and remarks she was thinking as she stepped forward, lowering her arm now that the wringing in her ear was more manageable. She spared a glance at the nervous stallion still standing by the decorative door as she stepped into the center of the horseshoe that surrounded them. He held both his hands together pleadingly and his cheeks were matted and he was clearly in serious distress. Zesty spun, holding out a finger like death coming to reap a lost soul as lightning and thunder exploded and flashed from above.

Raven flinched, reflexively ducking before she ended up glaring at the skies as she turned her attention towards a very embarrassed weather mare pushing an errand thundercloud. “S-Sorry!” she was quick to apologize and was even quicker to make her escape with the cloud so that she could, at the very least, save her dignity as the poor girl wrangled the cloud along, startling several more ponies in her wake as she flew down the street.

“Would you please tell this daft stallion that he is a fool to question my judgement,” Zesty explained as if nothing had happened whatsoever, her tone dripping with disgust as she lowered her lengthy arm. Raven glanced at the poor stallion yet again before she glanced at the sign above the door which read, The Bountiful Harvest. She wracked her brain as she tried to remember a time if she had eaten there, but nothing came directly to mind.

Being a fair and equal judge as her mother had taught her, Raven responded in kind, “I can’t pass judgment when I have not heard his side of the story. Or in this case, taste his food at the very least.” She turned towards the stallion. “Unfortunately, I’ve just eaten, but I am willing to try a few things. For the sake of a fair assessment, a soup, main dish and a dessert will suffice.”

Zesty didn’t speak at first, “Very well. But let me tell you that I warned you beforehand.” With that the two females and the distressed stallion entered the building. The place was nice, with a small-town diner kinda feel. The booths were covered in red leather and the carpet could be a different color than the green it was. There were pictures that lined the walls that were taken of various famous structures and a few random towns from across the country. It wasn’t her first choice of decor, but it definitely wasn’t the worst. Behind the trio, Raven’s guards, Copper, and most of the crowd entered the tiny diner. The human princess picked a booth near the kitchen while Zesty sat opposite of her. Nearby a khaki colored stallion weaseled his way into the seat next to the princess.

“Excuse me,” Zesty excused in that disgusted, yet professional tone of hers. “And who, pray tell, are you?”

Raven gave the mare a bemused expression like she herself had just been rudely insulted. “My coltfriend!” Raven spat. “And as far as you should be concerned, his opinion is as good as mine!” The stallion that had been defending what she assumed to be his restaurant stepped forward with a menu. Raven politely held up her hand and gave the stallion a welcoming smile, trying to show him some affection and kindness that the mare across from her was clearly lacking in. “We’ll do a bowl of your soup, whatever your special is, and your best desert.”

“Y-Yes Princess!”

He nodded before he headed towards the kitchen and the cook behind the serving window. He quickly filled up a cup full of tomato soup. “So, Zesty, care to explain your decision-making process?” Raven requested as the stallion rested the cup in front of her. She grasped her spoon and dipped it into the creamy meal before her while the mare spoke.

“Appearance, presentation, and taste,” the mare in question listed rather simply as she watched the princess sip from her spoon. “If one of them is not up to my standards, they are not worth my time, let alone Canterlot’s.” Raven licked her lips of the remaining soup before she offered Copper her spoon, who took it and followed her lead.

“And your thoughts?” Raven asked as she intertwined her fingers, resting her elbows on the table and her lips against her fingers.

“Appearance is outdated and simple, it has been long since Equestria was in this state,” Zesty explained. “As embarrassing as it was. No pony wants to remember such an awkward and rather embarrassing time. As far as presentation, it was not professional by any means. And the food was lackluster and downright terrible. Bland and disgusting, I feel insulted by the grim that was presented to me! But I am interested as to what the daughter of Princess Celestia believes?”

“You will hear my opinion when I am finished, end of conversation,” Raven stated firmly and that's exactly what she did. The rest of the meal was eaten in relative silence, leaving the audience holding their breath the entire way. The stallion set down two plates consisting of a stack of pancakes on one plate and hash browns on the other, along with a bottle of syrup and a bottle of ketchup as well. She slathered both food platters with generous amounts of each condiment before she bit into them, only licking her lips to clean them before Copper did the same. Finally, the stallion brought out a wonderful looking cheesecake. Yet again, one bite each before Raven sat back in her seat as she prepared her judgement. “You want to know my opinion Miss Gourmand?”

“It does intrigue me.”

Raven didn't hesitate as the poor stallion hunched over at the end of the table was about ready to die of a heart attack. This was the part he was dreading. “While I do agree that the carpet and the chairs clash and I recommend that maybe swapping to tile would be better and I do like the small-town feel. Right now, I will dismiss the presentation since my lovely waiter looks like he's about ready to have a stroke. As far as the food goes…”

Everypony leaned in in eager anticipation.

“The soup could use a little more herbs but the consistency was definitely on par with that of the castle chefs. Thick and creamy, just how I like it. The pancakes were fluffy, warm, and I don’t know what is in the batter, but it was amazing. The hash browns were cooked to perfection, not to crisp and not to limp. And the cheesecake was amazing, ten outta ten, would recommend,” she listed as she balled up her fabric napkin and threw it at the table as she pushed Copper out of the booth and stood up. “As far as I’m concerned, you’re full of shit,” she finished all but spitting on the mare before she turned to the limp jawed owner. “Sir, if any pony has any trouble-” she grabbed a random menu and a marker sitting in a cup near the bit register and began to sign her name, big and bold. “You can point to his saying that it has my seal of approval!” the girl turned towards the door as the sea of ponies separated around her like she was some kind of food god. “Anything this mare says is to be taken with a grain of salt and assumed to be a lie!” Raven shouted to the crowd, pointing back at a dumb founded Zesty as the mare gaped like a fish. “Because she doesn’t know taste if it punched her in the cunt!”

As Raven exited the building, she let out a pleasant and exhausted sigh as she relaxed in the midday sun. Copper was right behind her as he wrapped his arm around her waist. She smiled up at him lovingly before they headed down the street towards Canterlot Park. “So…” she led on as she leaned into his embrace. “What did you think of the food?”

“Reminded me of home, actually,” Copper reminisced. “Mom and Pop places like that always have the best food. Which is usually why I like to eat at places like the Tasty Treat or just about any fast food place like that. But I really liked the food there. You might have just saved them.”

“Lunch there for our next date?” Raven hinted, teasing him with an eye flutter.

“I’m okay with that,” he agreed.

Raven smiled yet again before pecking him on the cheek. She loved this, especially since her day had nearly been ruined by that little side quest and her anger was now on the decline. But the day was still young, and they had plenty of time to relish in each other's company. It was only a few minutes’ walk as they entered the park. They spotted the perfect spot to hold up right under an old oak tree. But they barely made it three steps into the park before a small group of fillies seemed to appear out of nowhere, swarming the young princess and flooding her with questions and praise. Raven gave Copper a sheepish smile knowing that there was no way she was going to get out of her fan service.

“Go read your book,” she urged him before giving him the softest of pecks on the lips. An older mare approached the group of rabid ankle biters and profusely apologized for their misbehavior, but the young royal was quick to wave it off, gladly accepting the various questions and picture requests. Copper for his part, would go and sit under that perfect oak tree, relishing the feeling of the cool grass against his warmer body, pulling his book from under his arm and picking up from where he left off. Occasionally he watching his girl from the corner of his eye, it brought the faintest of smiles to his lips as he watched her lean down with the fillies, striking a pose, smiling for the camera as what he assumed to be a mother to one or all of the six fillies before taking the picture. It was sometime again and several page flips later when he spared a second glance, watching as his marefriend was now doing cartwheels, flips and rolls, earning several claps from a slightly larger crowd and even a few ponies directly away from the fun clapped along as well.

She does really well despite her handicap…

Copper opted to watch her this time as she played along with the fillies, thrusting her fists forward as if she was fighting in an actual fist fight, giggling with the foal’s playfulness. She then transitioned into holding her hands over her head like a a pair of antlers, roaring playfully as if she as a vicious monster smiling all the while as she chased the screeching foals across the open plane, catching one filly that fell, pulling her up bridal style and tickling the poor child. Her adorable squeals, giggling, and screeching before she placed her back on her hooves. The mare approached the panting teen with a thankful bow, thanking her for her generosity. Raven responded in kind with a smile and a bow of her own before she bent over, resting her hands on her knees and waving at the sweet little fillies as they left. When he saw her approaching, Copper went back to his book.

The panting teen approached with her guards in tow before she dropped onto all fours, crawling towards her boyfriend before she spun around and started pulling her pant legs up.

“That was fun,” she smiled as she started to untie her bootlaces, pulling her boots from her feet, which was followed by her socks, setting them together as she rested them nearby. The girl sighed as she wiggled her toes momentarily before placing them onto the cool grass, relishing the feeling of each individual strand of grass between her toes. With a satisfied sigh, she leaned back and rested her head in Copper’s lap, grabbing his hand and resting it on the top of her head. He rolled his eyes, catching the obvious hint as he started to casually message her scalp. She moaned, closing her eye and relishing the tingling feeling of his delicate, yet firm fingers as they pressed against her scalp and danced through her hair. Messaging away the days stresses.

“So,” Raven started as she tilted her head, making sure Copper targeted a spot she exceptionally like him to scratch. “Got any plans for the week?”

“Not really,” he replied without taking his attention away from his book as he flipped the page with his other free hand. “Maybe study a little for my next assignment. Or send a letter to my sister. I know she would be eager to meet you. Same with my parents. I can only imagine what they will do when we see them.”

“I’m excited!”

“I know you are! But what about you, have any plans?” he asked as she looked down at her and away from his book.

She shrugged. “The girls and I were going to have a sleepover at the castle tonight.” She held up a hand and examined her fingernails idly. “I don’t know. It’ll be fun and I am always happy to see them but…” she trailed off.

“But?”

“It,” she sighed as she lowered her arm, her demeanor turning into a longing sigh for something more. “It’s just kinda boring, to be honest. Twilight and Moondancer nerd out as they talk about something science-y. Lemon is kinda quiet and Minuette never shuts up about her latest crush, which tends to change on a weekly basis. Don’t get me wrong, I love them all, but there is also the fact that I am the oldest compared to Twinkleshine who’s fourteen. But she won’t be there, which is fine and probably for the better. Some of my personal games are kinda… race-y.”

“Like Cards Against Equinity?” Copper teased.

Raven nodded. “It’s fun, and I love it, but there is a reason it’s rated the way it is. Especially if you get the other packs. But it’s not the best game for the rest for the girls.” She sighed wistfully yet again. “I don’t know, I’m very outgoing and adventurous and the only other one of us that is remotely close to what I like to do is Minuette. I kind wish we could do more,” she pouted as she finished her little rant.

Copper patted her head in a comforting manner, like the dutiful coltfriend he was, he listened intently as his girlfriend laid out her woes and sought solace in him. Raven's demeanor had turned rather glum as she stared up at the sky, silently hoping that the clouds would hold the answer she was looking for. Copper sat in silence for a bit as he brainstormed ideas. “Well… since it’s going to be you and the girls, you could always suggest something. I know they look up to you from the few interactions I’ve had with them. I bet they would be more than happy to listen to you and do something adventurous.”

Raven closed her eye and idly shook her head back and forth as she contemplated the idea. Perhaps that’s what she would do tonight?

The rest of the afternoon was spent in the comfortable silence of each other's company. He continued to read his book while Raven opted to take a nap. She only had to move as Copper decided to follow her lead, shutting his book and lying back in the grass while she curled up against him, intertwining her leg with his own as she rested a hand on his chest and her head on his shoulder. The human girl opened her eye briefly as she nuzzled his cheek softly before she pecked him on the nose. “Love you,” she whispered.

The faintest of smiles graced his lips as a storm of butterflies flew frantically in his belly. “Love you too,” he whispered back as he nuzzled her hair with the tip of his muzzle.

Later that night, three of the four teen mares and one human watched as their light blue friend stood at the door to the princesses’ room. They watched as their toothpaste colored friend hopped up and down, trying to psyche herself up for what was about to happen. Raven had taken her coltfriend's advice from earlier that day and suggested some more interactive games.

Like the tried and true, truth or dare.

The game started off rather dryly though. Truth seemed to be the most requested option out of the two options. It was mostly questions of ‘who do you like,’ ‘would you date this pony,’ stuff like that. But the real shocker came when Minuette, in her boredom, suggested that they make the game more exciting. In all honesty, Raven was the one expecting to do as such, but it definitely wasn’t unwarranted nor unwanted. It started off harmless, screaming as loud as you could from the balcony, do a flip, then Minuette and Raven got adventurous. Which is where it had led to now.

Minuette continued to hop on the tips of her hooves, psyching herself up for the bare-naked run she was about to do through the castle. Minuette was all too eager to do it as well. Her little pink pajamas with white polka dots laid out on Raven’s bed while the nude seventeen-year-old finished her final preparations with a quick shake of her head.

“And…” she teased as she grabbed the doorknob, building up the suspense. “We go!” Both night guards standing outside the room jumped when the door burst open and a bare naked blue blur shot past them. Both mares had to do a rapid double take as they watched the teen mares naked flank and hourglass cutie mark streak her way down the hallway, only catching her toothpaste colored mane and tail fluttered around the corner. Before they could even react further, Raven and her entourage of friends exited the room, the princess cheering her naked friend on with a shake of her fist.

“Run Minuette run!”

Both guards’ mares stared in disbelief before they shared a look of concern with one another. “She would stop her?” the one on the left asked her partner, ignoring the cheers, concerned and embarrassed looks of the teens.

The second mare blinked. “My job is to watch this door and nothing more,” she dismissed with a nonchalant shrug of her shoulders. The remaining friends continued to giggle and laughed uproariously as they went back into the room, closing the door in the process, leaving the two mares to guard the silent hallway yet again. The guard mare on the left side of the door kept glancing down the hallway where the buck ass nude teen had disappeared a few minutes prior.

The second guard, sensing her partner's apprehension, spoke up, “We were that young once Bell. Remember that time in college when we went to that lake and lost our clothes? And we had to run home naked?”

The mare known as Bell blushed as she puffed out her cheeks and scrunched her muzzle in anger at being reminded of that particular event. “I thought we agreed to never speak of it again, Cypher!” Bell seethed through her teeth.

Cypher rolled her eyes at her friend's anger. “The point I’m trying to make is that we were young and stupid. Let them have some fun. Besides the castles closed and this is technically the private part of the castle. If they want to have a little bit of a, refreshing jog, let them have their fun. Most of the guards on duty right now are mares anyway, so it’s nothing anyone of us haven’t ever seen before. We have the same biological make up. Relax, sheesh!”

Just then, the naked teen came around the opposite corner of that she disappeared from, her hooves clicking loudly against the floor with each step. Cypher was quick to grab the door and open it, offering a “Welcome back,” and a smile as the teen slid into the room with a 'thank you,' and out of sight as the guard closed the door.

"I think that was terribly inappropriate."

"And I think it was rather funny Bell, keeps the job entertaining. Better than staring at the opposite wall all night long.”

The next morning, everypony save for Twilight had left for home, leaving the two friends to do their own thing. They had gotten dressed, Twilight in her usual school uniform and Raven in a much less formal jeans, t-shirt with a cartoon dragon on it and her signature, shin high boots. They had hung out in the dining hall for a decent amount of time after breakfast, simply relaxing and gorging themselves on unhealthy snacks and juice. Celestia had stopped in as well for a midmorning snack, greeting the lively teens at the table, kissing her daughter on the top of the head before she turned towards her prized student, hugging her with just as much enthusiasm as she would Raven.

In some way, Twilight was like a daughter to her as well.

They were together for hours during the teens study sessions and clung to the mare like a scared foal when she was in the castle. They had spent quite a bit of time together honing little Twilight’s powers in and turning her into a very powerful mage. If her mage certificate was anything to go by. Twilight had set the record for being both the youngest student to graduate mage training and the fastest to boot. She was done in less than three years whereas most need a minimum of six years to earn that certification and she did it in half!

Celestia loved them both, nonetheless.

With a wave of goodbye and an ‘I love you,’ to both of the teens, Celestia left the girls to their devices. But they didn’t stay long, especially when Blueblood arrived and quickly killed the mood. He didn’t dare say anything as he glared at his cousin. It was sad really; he carried this smog cloud of hatred and entitlement with him -and if it was any thicker it would kill. Raven had tried to get along with him after the first major event she had with him years ago.

Which did put him in place.

But it only seemed to deepen his sense of malice towards his foreign family member. She had tried talking to him at her mother's discretion and pressuring, but they could barely sit in a room together before insults started flying. One session, of which Celestia was glad she was sitting in on, because they had ignored her pleas to calm down when Blueblood in a fit of rage jumped across the table and threw an uncoordinated punch. Raven was coldcocked across the cheek before she was able to get in a firm kick to Blueblood’s abdomen before the matriarch used her magic to keep them separated.

They were scolded later but the damage was already done.

It was pretty clear that no matter how hard Celestia tried, the pair would never get along. It was depressing, especially since Bluey was such a sweet little thing as a foal, but the older he got, the more corrupt he seemed to become. Canterlot and its noble hierarchy and political prowess had that negative effect on ponies. It was tragic, really. But at least they weren't trying to slit each other’s throats in the sleep. But Blueblood shared his disdain with the rest of his upper-class entourage and political delegates he had ties with. While he was a dick, to put it bluntly, the young stallion wasn't an idiot. But most ponies tended to ignore his complaints about either of his female cousins since both of them had been very active in the community. They were loved by the lower-class populace. If they nobles wanted to keep their positions, they never said or did anything. They also couldn't touch any of the princess' without the proper reasoning. But yet again, Blueblood seemed to be the only one with a problem.

Twilight and Raven left the room before things had escalated and the latter of the two just opting to ignore the young stallion. They wandered the halls with nowhere in mind as they chatted about the events of the night before or some upcoming event or something. They were lost in their conversation before a guard slipped and fell, surprising the pair when the guard hit the floor with a heavy thud and a loud metallic bang.

"Oh my gosh!" Twilight gasped. "Are you alright?"

The guard didn't move nor respond verbally, clearly indicating that something serious might have happened. He had landed on his side facing away from them, so they couldn't see his face. He must have knocked himself out cold. "Come on," Raven urged as she hopped forward before, she started to jog down the hallway, Twilight in tow. When there were about halfway to the stallion, a thick, armored boot stepped over the downed guard.

Like rolling thunder, the demonic Warframe, the fallen Tenno stepped out from around the corner. The jagged great sword pulsing in his grasp.

"Nothing but Tenno strings. Shadow, let your hatred free!"

Raven's eye went wide in horror while a chill ran up her spine as she stared face to face to the very man that had hunted her down. The man that had ruined her life. The one that intended to kill her. Time slowed as she spun on her heels, frantically screaming at her younger friend with the only words that were appropriate...

"TWILIGHT RUN!"

Author's Notes:

I rewrote this chapter 3 different times. Originally I started two of the 'sexcapades' we see, but I didn't want to add chapters that I thought weren't necessary and I couldn't fit some sort of story into it. They were quickly approaching the point where it was solely going to be porn for like, 3 extra chapters. Sue me, sex is not my plan for this story at all, it's just a nice bonus and a test of my writing as I try to 'expand' as it were. So I went with this. Hint at what the original plan was and a little tease then filler. If you like what I'm doing here click that like button at the least, follow at the most, and feel free to leave a comment!
