In spite of being a Pegasus, her home was on the ground. Wasn’t much, but then again she said she didn’t need much considering it was just her and all. Just a small place that would pass for a small apartment back in the human world. And was laid out like one too. Living room and kitchen in front, bathroom behind that, with the bedroom in the rear. In that bedroom was Rainbow and I cuddled up in her bed. We were facing each other with my arm around her and her head laying on my other one, using it as a pillow. You can pretty much guess how her room, not to mention the whole house was decorated with. Mainly two things. Daring Do and the Wonderbolts.

Rainbow had forgotten to shut the Wonderbolt curtains last night, so the first rays of the morning sun started to snake its way across her ceiling. As the first rays of the morning lit up the room, Rainbow kept lightly snoring away as I woke up and looked at her. She was nigh insatiable last night after we got here. It was well after sunset by the time we got into bed at all. But as my brain started to wake up along with the morning, it came to mind that today was supposed to be the thing about the Breezies. Those small pixie looking things that needed special care when they came through town.

And Rainbow was the head mare of the group in charge of the breeze. “Five more minutes,” she groaned, moving her wing to cover her face and hide her from the morning sun. Then snuggling deeper into me to further hide from the rising sun. So, while she continued to hide, my hand lightly rubbed her head, neck, and back while watching her sleep. And all was peaceful and quiet.

Until…

“THE BREEZIES,” a loud shout woke her up and gave me a somewhat a good start as we both sat up in bed, looking toward the bedroom door. It was Fluttershy, and with a loud voice that surprised us both.

Fluttershy just startled me, but Rainbow gave a sudden cry of alarm when it jarred her awake. Both of us were still naked when Fluttershy rushed up and into bed with us, putting one arm on each of us. “The breezies are arriving today,” she said again, this time more softly.

“Fluttershy!” Rainbow admonished with a hand over a bare breast, taking deep breaths to calm her rapidly beating heart, “that’s not a good way to wake me up.”

I just looked over at Fluttershy with a smirk before slowly snaking an arm around her waist to slowly pull her into my lap.

“Oh I’m sorry, Rainbow,” she sheepishly apologized while slowly moving into my lap. “I’m just so excited about the breezies coming through town today.”

“I get that, Fluttershy,” Rainbow sighed with a small understanding smile, “really I do. But couldn’t you let me sleep in a little bit more?” She crossed her arms under her breasts making them perk up, drawing my eyes to them. At the same time, Fluttershy was now fully in my lap with an arm around her waist and a hand on her growing baby bump.

“Um…the breezies are coming soon,” she mentioned shyly as she relaxes against me, hiding behind her hair, “like within three hours.”

Rainbow looked confused, “I thought they wouldn’t show up until after lunch.”

Fluttershy shrugged with a smile, “They got here early, but I’m sorry for startling you awake.”

Rainbow gave her a forgiving smile, “Alright, you’re forgiven.” Then she got up out of bed and walked toward the bedroom door. “You two don’t do anything in my bed while I’m taking a shower, alright?” she cautioned with a mischievous smirk before leaving the room that left Fluttershy blushing deeply.

I wasn’t complaining. This time I put my other arm around her with a mischievous smirk of my own. She looked at me with a blushing smile as she sat sideways in my lap, “Good morning, Fred.”

“Good morning, Fluttershy,” I greeted while my hand rubbed her growing baby bump. “How are you and our foal doing this morning?”

“We’re fine,” her smile and her blush were just so cute the way she looked at me. “As I said, the morning sickness is gone and I’m used to the diet change now. Eating meat was really uncomfortable at first, but I’m used to it now.” As we heard the shower start running, I moved my other hand to her breasts and rubbed one over her dress. It helped to calm her down as she sighed, leaning fully against me. Her eyes softened as she whispered, “I’ve missed your touch, Fred.” She arched her back a little to emphasize her point.

“Already?” I questioned softly into her ear while gently squeezing a breast and rubbing her baby bump.

She nodded with a soft hum.

Turning her head, I gently kissed her. She sighed deeply into the kiss, putting her arms around me. “Then tonight will be with you and our foal,” I whispered into her ear. “You will be naked and so will I. And we’ll just lay there, enjoying ourselves and our foal.”

She rubbed her cheek against mine before kissing my neck softly, “That would be simply wonderful, Fred.”

“Alright you two,” Rainbow suddenly walked back into the room with a towel in her hands drying her long rainbow hair, naked. Not that I minded any, I was enjoying the sight. “Break it up,” she chuckled at us, “break it up.” She stopped and took a quick sniff in the air. Then nodded to us, “Good, you two didn’t do anything in my bed.”

Fluttershy blushed heavily, but I shook my head to her as my eyes snaked across her exposed body, “No, we didn’t.”

“Um…Rainbow?” Fluttershy questioned softly. “Shouldn’t you be wearing something?”

“Why?” she questioned back. Then chuckled again, still drying her hair, “Not like Fred hasn’t seen me. We bucked each other’s brains out last night, so I seriously doubt that he minds any. And you and I have got the same equipment.”

Fluttershy didn’t have a response to that and simply relaxed against me as Rainbow started drying the rest of her.

“Like what you see?” Rainbow moaned seductively at me as she ran the towel down her slim athletic body.

Fluttershy blushed again while I nodded my head.

“Good because it’s your turn to take a shower,” she grinned mischievously at me. “And you are going to give Fluttershy and I a show.”

“I am?”

Fluttershy used her hand to turn my head to her and I could see the lustful glint in her eyes. She put her hand over mine that was over her breast and squeezed it, “I’d like that. Put on a show for Rainbow and I, Fred.”

And I did. And rather enjoyed pleasuring myself in front of them as they watched, cheered, and told me what to do for their viewing pleasure.

^_^

It was almost three hours later than I was with Harmony and Twilight in front of the town hall. The atmosphere outside was like a celebration, similar to a holiday, with everypony out and about preparing for them. Rainbow was up in the sky regulating the breeze. At the same time, I heard Fluttershy talking to the Cakes about the breezies. Basically that the breezies needed a breeze to activate their magic in order to protect the pollen from going bad. And only had two days to get back through the portal into their world again. It sounds similar to the mirror portal to the human world to me.

“It’s obvious that this has been going on for a while now, considering almost everypony knows what to do and to keep quiet,” I said to Twilight as she stood behind the podium in front of the town hall.

“Yeah it has, Fred,” she told me, “Fluttershy always gets so excited about them coming through every year. And every year she tries her best to make sure everything goes fine for them.” She reached into a side pocket of her dress and fetched out a letter. “By the way,” she handed it to me, “you’ve got a letter from Miss Delphia.”

“Yeah?” opening it as soon as I got it.

“Isn’t that the policemare from Canterlot that you told me about?”

“Yeah it is, Harmony,” I told her while reading the letter.

“How is she then?” she asked again.

“In short,” I spoke while reading, “she’s doing fine. Still on the night shift, but that will change in a few days as she goes to the day shift. She and the other girls in the apartment house send their regards. Her guardian, which is also her commanding officer, is proud of her and her accomplishments. Then she asks how I’m doing and what’s going on with me.” And just when I was putting away the letter, my eyes got blinded by a bright purple light. “What the-”

“Oh, Rarity,” Fluttershy walked up to her immediately with her own shades on, “I don’t know much about fashion but-”

“It’s too much purple isn’t it?” Rarity asked. “I knew it, but Twilight thought otherwise.”

“I...what?”

“Oh, no it isn’t that. It’s too bright,” Fluttershy explained much to the murmuring agreement to the ponies around them. “The breezies will get blinded by it and might fly off course.”

Rarity thought about it before nodding and taking off the jacket, which made everything worse. Now it was brighter and now much whiter than it was. “Rarity, put on something non-reflective please.” I couldn’t see what she was wearing underneath the jacket because I was blinded by the light shining off of it to tell.

“Too bright?” she asked which made the ponies around her agree with her a little testily. “I’m sorry, I’ll go change right now.”

“Thank you, Rarity,” I called out to her before she left and everypony could see again. Of course, I had to blink of few times in order to get the stars out of my eyes. A couple of minutes later, Rainbow landed beside Twilight.

“Twilight, the breezies are coming,” then took off again back to her position in the air over the bridge.

“Everypony,” she said in her normal tone of voice to get their attention, then lowered it when she had it, “it’s time. May I present, the breezies.” Everything went quiet right after that. I couldn’t even hear a cough or a sneeze.

And sure enough, a group of very small flying creatures started making their way across the stream and bridge and into the center of town. They were flying close enough that I could get a good look at them. “I’ve never seen anything like them,” was my whispered response to Twilight when they started flying by. “They’re so unique.”

“And to think they only get two days to gather the pollen and bring it back home,” she whispered back in her lecture tone. After a few seconds of silence between us, I felt her wing extend and wrap around me. I leaned down to listen. “You’re going to be with Fluttershy tonight, right?” I nodded. “Then tomorrow night, you’re mine then. No questions, ifs, ands, or buts.” I nodded once more with a knowing smirk on my face. And in response, her wing gripped me just a little bit tighter.

Everything seemed fine until I noticed Spike up on a branch in a tree. Which would have been fine but in all his excitement it made the branch shake a leaf loose. And in no time at all, it floated down from the branch and into the path of the rear part of the group of breezies. You’ve never heard a more quiet gasp of shock from a crowd in your entire life. About fifteen or so breezies got caught in the eddy currents of the breeze and didn’t have the strength to fly out of it. My eyes caught Rainbow asking her fellow pegasi if there’s anything that could be done. And when there wasn’t, Fluttershy flew into action. Quite literally in fact. She flew up to catch the small breezies in her arms and brought them down to a nearby stump.

Twilight and Harmony followed me to where she set them down, where she was currently talking to them. “Is everypony alright?” she asked them just as we walked up with Rainbow and Philomena landing beside us. Philomena moved in front of me, grabbed my hands, and wrapped my arms around her. With a smirk, I squeezed her waist a little.

“Are they alright, Fluttershy?” Rainbow asked, concerned for them.

“Yes, they are,” she replied happily, “Just a little shaken up.”

“That’s good,” Rainbow said while looking at the main group now flying out of town. “It’s too late for them to catch up to the main group. But there’s just the right amount of breeze for them to continue. Just say the word, Fluttershy.”

Right then all of the breezies, save one, started chittering and latched onto Fluttershy as if for dear life. “What was that?” she asked looking down at the small group. “You want to wait a little bit?”

That concerned me. “And how long do they have to get back through the portal?” I asked.

The single Breezy that didn’t chitter now flew up to Fluttershy’s face. It was definitely a language, but one none of us knew except for Fluttershy. But the tone in the little guy’s voice told me that he wasn’t happy with them wanting to wait.

“He says there’s no time to rest because the portal closes later this afternoon,” she told us. She then looked at the apparent leader of the small group, “Oh but I’m sure that a small rest wouldn’t hurt anything.”

I rolled my eyes, “I’m no expert, but it sounds like this little guy thinks that it’s not a good idea to wait.” The breezy shook his small head. I chuckled, “Don’t need a translator for that.”

Fluttershy waved off the concern and started walking toward her cottage, “Oh there’s time for a quick rest. Maybe some water and a snack.”

“Alright, Fluttershy,” Rainbow chipped in. “You know best. Let me know when they’re ready to go.”

I simply shook my head, “A quick rest and water only. They can’t afford to miss their portal.” The leader breezy seemed to agree with me as he tried chittering to Fluttershy again as she walked away.

“I’ll see you guys later,” Rainbow looked over at us, “I’m going to get the team to maintain the breeze until they’re ready.” Then she flew off.

Twilight shook her head, “This isn’t a good idea. What if they miss the portal back home?”

“Hopefully it won’t come to that,” I mused. “But until then,” I started to nudge Philomena toward Twilight’s place, “there’s a letter I want to write.”

^_^

Philomena, Twilight, and I went back to the library while Harmony stayed to help Rainbow out. And it didn’t take me long to get some parchment, a pencil, and sit down at a table to begin writing the letter to Eve.

@#@#@

Dear Eve,

I’m pleased to hear that you are doing well and that you are starting the day shift in a few days. You have all my best for you and your career. And tell the other girls I said hello and that I’m glad they’re not going to skewer me the next time they see me. ;-) Since your last letter, Ponyville had a celebration for the city itself which Rarity was in charge of. And then Fluttershy put on a fundraiser for her pet center, which due to a local zebra threw a bottle of liquid poison joke on me making me go berserk basically. And ruined Fluttershy’s fundraiser. I tried my best to help raise money for her the next day. But it wasn’t all bad because I got a pet out of it. A bald eagle named Lucy decided to be my friend. I’m happy about that because the Bald Eagle is the national bird of the human nation in the human world. Today, however, the breezies came through, but some of them got delayed by a leaf that interrupted their flight. Hopefully, they won't’ miss their portal home. As I’m writing this they are taking a rest and hopefully resume their flight home shortly after. Looking forward to your next letter and will drop by to say hello the next time I’m in town.

All my best,

Fred Justice

@#@#@

After finishing the letter, I folded it up to cover up the letter side. After folding it up, I sealed it up with old fashion sealing wax using the library’s stamp. Then on the blank side wrote who it was for and asked Aunt Luna to deliver it for me. “Spike?” I called out to him and after a couple of seconds, I hear the sound of his talons lightly tapping against the wooden floor.

“Yeah?” he asked, walking around the corner of the hallway toward me.

“Could you sent this off to Aunt Luna for me, please?” I asked holding out the letter for him.

“Sure, Fred,” he agreed, grabbed the letter, and with a poof of his fire breath sent it off in a magical mist out the nearby window.

“Never ceases to amaze me how you can do that,” I muttered in awe as the mist disappeared through the window.

When I look over at him he was smirking at me, “Yeah it’s pretty cool being a dragon. It was cool when I was a dog in the human world too when Rarity was holding me.”

I laughed in agreement, “Believe me that’s every guy's dream in the human world to be held by a girl. Like the drummer for Flash Sentry’s band, for example, got hit by the back door of the school bus. That’s the long yellow vehicle. Hurt like hell. Well, his girlfriend tended to him by laying his head in her lap. I’ve never seen a more comfortable or peaceful man in my life, let me tell you.”

He chuckled, “Yeah that’s what it felt like.”

I stood up from the table and patted his shoulder with a grin, “Well my friend, most guys call that heaven on earth. And with that, I’ll let Twilight and Philomena know that I’m going to check up on Fluttershy and the Breezies.”

“Alright,” he said to me then went back to work.

Twilight and Philomena were upstairs in her room, so I didn’t want to walk into the room in case they were having a private conversation. Instead, I told them outside of the room. “Twilight? Philomena? I’m going to check in with Fluttershy and the breezies.”

Twilight answered from the bedroom, “Alright, Fred. Let me know what happens.”

“I will,” I told her then turned around to head toward Fluttershy’s cabin.

^_^

All was relatively quiet when I reached Fluttershy’s cottage. So, I knocked on the door, “Fluttershy? It’s me, Fred.”

I heard her hoofsteps right before she opened the door and smiled at me, “Oh hi, Fred.”

“Just came to check up on them,” told her with a smile.

“Oh they’re still resting from their horrible ordeal,” she said with a saddened look on her face. I noticed that she wasn’t letting me in either.

“Fluttershy,” began softly while leaning against the door frame, “being kind is one thing, but they need to get going.” The end of that sentence was emphasized to make a simple point. Right then my ears picked up a tiny burp. And when I looked over her shoulder, my eyes spotted all of them laying around the living room with water and snacks. “And by the looks of it,” I gave her a tongue in cheek look, “if they “rest” anymore they might not be able to fly away home.”

“Oh nonsense,” she waved off my concern with her hand and a shake of her head, “they are-“

She got cut off when the angry one from before came out of his little hideaway and flew up to her again. And once more he didn’t sound happy as he chittered away in a pleading and upset tone of voice.

“Oh they aren’t lazy at all,” Fluttershy disagreed, then motioned to the group again. “As I told Fred, they’re just resting and recovering.”

Another small burp.

I gave her a deadpanned look which was mirrored by the upset breezy hovering nearby.

“Don’t look at me that way,” she protested, looking offended. “They just need more time to recover.”

I laid all the cards on the table, so to speak. “Fluttershy,” my tone changed to a firm, but not angry, one, “they were ready way before I came back here. And if they rest any longer they won’t get home. And if that happens, this little guy may go nuts and you’ll have to take care of them probably for a whole year.” And after taking a quick look at the group one thing was glaringly obvious, even to me. They were simply scared. With a patient sigh, I continued. “Look, I get that they’re scared. Even I can see that. If they need help, fine, we’ll help them, but they need to get going and frankly, Fluttershy, you’re not helping right now by encouraging them to stay.”

The little guy hovering nearby, chittered away again while pointing at me. Pleaded with her again before flying over to the group, grabbing one, while attempting to pull him into the air. I didn’t need a translator to know what he was suggesting. But the group as a whole protested and showed how they weren’t ready by flying up to her to cling to her like static electricity.

“There you see?” Fluttershy said to both me and the breezy. Right then we heard one of them cough with a few more joining in. My eyes rolled when I heard, “Oh dear, you’re sick?” Chittering of agreement followed. “Then you need to get to bed right away,” Fluttershy walked off me and the upset breezy simply watched, both with deadpanned looks on our faces.

Seeing that I wasn’t needed, or wanted, anymore, I turned to shut the door behind me and left with a mind to come back after five or ten minutes. And I was halfway back into town when Rainbow flew down to land in front of me.

“Hey, Fred,” she greeted, “saw you coming from Fluttershy’s place. Are they ready?”

My response was a wry smile and a quick laugh with a shake of my head. “Yes and no,” I told her as my arm went around her shoulders, hugging her to me. She didn’t protest. “They are but they’re scared enough to make excuses on why they aren’t. It’s like a kid not wanting to go to school and makes up excuses like being sick.”

“That’s crazy. If they wait much longer, they won’t get home,” she protested with great concern.

“I know, which is why we are going to return in about five or so minutes to keep encouraging them to leave,” I told her. We were at the edge of town where there was a small park with a bench that I lead her to. She sat down with me without protest where my arm went around her shoulders again with my fingers gently rubbing against her arm.

“You’re going to be with Fluttershy tonight?” she asked softly after a couple of minutes of silence.

“Yep,” was my smiling response, “and Twilight has claimed me for the next night.”

I heard a frustrated sigh, “Horseapples. Then I claim the night after then.”

A pleased grin grew on my face when she said it, “Alright.”

Two pegasi walked up to us after that, one stallion and one mare. One I recognized as Thunderlane, which I nodded to in greeting.

He greeted back with a nod as Rainbow addressed them, “Hey guys.”

“What’s the word on the breezies?” Thunderlane asked.

Rainbow looked up at me.

“Most of the breezies, save one which I’m guessing is their leader, is afraid to fly. I’ve tried telling Fluttershy that, but she’s not listening to either me or the breezy leader. It even got where the group faked being sick just so they could stay.”

“Like a foal that doesn’t want to go to school,” the mare said with a nod of understanding.

“Well, they’ve got to soon or they won’t be able to,” Rainbow spoke up, her voice filled with worry and concern. She continued when I looked to her for an explanation. “There’s a front moving in,” Rainbow shrugged. “Nothing for us ponies, but it would be like a hurricane for those poor breezies. And it shows up in just a couple of hours.”

“Well that changes things,” standing up I pulled Rainbow up with me. “It’s now or never then, come on.” After Rainbow stood up with me all four of us headed over to Fluttershy’s place.

This time, however, as we walked up I heard music coming from inside.

“Is that music?” the mare pegasus wondered aloud.

“Yep,” was my irritated response as I approached the door.

“Shouldn’t we knock first?”

“No, Thunderlane,” I said right before yanking open the door, “I won’t.” Music played, rather loudly, throughout the living room from the record player in the corner. And wouldn’t you know it, those sick breezies sure got cured quickly. All those breezies that were too sick to fly away just minutes before were now flying around in their form of dancing, I guess, to the music. And Fluttershy helped it along by serving refreshments. That was it, I’ve had enough. Not one of the breezies, or Fluttershy, noticed or paid attention to me as I walked across the room toward the record player. And stopped the music. “Alright, the party’s over,” I nearly yelled out as the breezies started complaining. “If you can fly around the room and dance to music you can fly away home.”

The closest breezy to me flew up to me and proceeded to cough and pretend to be sick again.

“Ain’t working on me,” I told him, “because I just saw you dancing in the air like it was no tomorrow just seconds before. And let me tell the lot of you that if you don’t leave now then you won’t get home. Rainbow just informed me of a front coming through here in two hours, so it’s time to go.”

Fluttershy started walking up to me with a look on her face that told me she was fixing to protest my interruption.

“Don’t think about saying they aren’t ready Fluttershy,” I told her firmly. When she got close to me I gently put a finger to her nose, “You can’t tell me they’re sick if they’re dancing. And I could tell that was fake from the start. They need to go and now.”

“Fred?”

“But they are so scared,” Fluttershy told me as neither of us heard Rainbow’s voice. The breezies chittered at her while clinging to her fur, hair, or dress trying to plead with her.

“Fluttershy?”

“And they’ll be sad and depressed that they didn’t home in time and what will you do then?” I asked, trying to get my point across. “You’re pregnant, Fluttershy, and are you going to take care of our child and them throughout the whole year?”

“GUYS!” Rainbow shouted to get our attention. Which worked because all of the breezies and Fluttershy got startled by her loud voice. “One of them left already,” she told us, pointing to an open small window.

After looking at the window, I turned back to Fluttershy, “I’ll give you one guess on who it was.”

“Oh dear, it’s dangerous for him to go out alone,” her voice was filled with worry as she started walking toward the door. She was going to go out after him, which was fine with me. Perhaps my message will finally get through her thick skull. The breezies quickly retreated from her and over to the couch to hide underneath the blanket as she left the cottage.

I just shook my head at them and followed her out, “Come on Rainbow.”

Fluttershy flew off faster than she normally would have in search of the lone breezy. Meanwhile, Rainbow and I tried following her. Well, Rainbow could easily if she flew, but she was worried about doing more harm than good with her wing power, so she stayed with me. By the time we caught up with them, it appeared that the breezy had flown right into a bee’s nest. Fluttershy had to use her stare on them in order to get them to back down. And that’s when the heart to heart started. Rainbow and I stayed back to give them space to talk. And I could see the change in Fluttershy’s attitude.

Finally, she and the breezy flew down to the ground in front of us. She had a sad smile on her face as she looked up at me. Then reached up and pulled my head down with both of her hands giving me a long kiss. Which I returned naturally. “Thank you, Fred. You’re right. They need to go. Sometimes being kind is also doing what’s best for them and not your own feelings.”

“So…?”

“Yes, Rainbow,” Fluttershy told her, “please get the breeze going. I’m going to get them to go home.”

Finally.

“You got it,” Rainbow saluted and flew off to gather everypony, which included Twilight and the rest of the girls.

I followed Fluttershy back to her cottage. Once inside she told them to leave, which they protested, but this time was different. This time she forced them to leave, and when they did she shut the door and started crying softly. She held onto me as I held her, letting her cry it out.

“That was the hardest thing I ever had to do,” she said quietly through the remaining sniffles.

“It’s not called tough love for nothing, Fluttershy,” I told her with a smile, pulling her head up by the chin to look down at her.

She nodded slowly up at me.

“You ready?”

“Yes,” she gave me a nod, another sniffle, then a sad smile before we headed out the door.

I thought that the breezies would be well on their way but apparently not. We spotted them on the same stump they were at before with the girls standing in front of them.

“Sorry, Twilight,” Rainbow was saying to her, “but we can’t get the breeze just right. Either it’s too hard or not hard enough.”

“Oh dear,” Fluttershy worried, “but surely there’s something we can do.”

“Perhaps there is,” Twilight spoke up with a tone of voice that said she had an idea. “The breezies had a larger group before to handle the breeze. If we can’t get the breeze just right then perhaps we can enlarge the group.”

“And how do you suppose we do that?”

“Easy Applejack,” Twilight grinned, “we turn everypony into a breezy.”

Everypony was practically beside themselves with excitement. Especially Fluttershy. “Oh that’s-“

“Hold on,” I interrupted them with a wave of my hand to get their attention. They stopped and looked at me, “I’m not too fond of this idea. And what about Fluttershy being pregnant? Is it really a good idea for her to change forms at this time?”

“Oh…um,” Twilight furrowed her brow in thought, “probably not, Fred. I’m sorry, Fluttershy but it might not be a good idea for you right now.”

Fluttershy looked down putting a hand to her protruding belly, rubbing it lightly. “You’re probably right,” she sighed with disappointment.

Putting a hand to her shoulder, I turned to her, “Listen, Fluttershy. If you agree not to be changed then I’ll change forms in your place, alright?”

“You will?” she asked, glad, and surprised at the same time.

“I will,” I told her with a sigh to calm my nerves.

“Great, let’s get this going then,” Twilight said and motioned us into a tight circle around her. When we were in position, she ignited her horn and the spell. A beam of light hit us first then hit the breezies. Let me tell you, it was the strangest sensation that I’ve ever experienced. My eyes were closed during the transformation because it was something that I did not want to watch. When my eyes opened again I was face to face with the upset breezy from before.

He was smirking at me with his front…things…crossed over what I call his chest. “Thank you,” he said to me, which was a surprise, to begin with. “Now it’s time to go.”

“I can understand you,” was my shocked response.

Twilight fluttered up, “Yes because now you are one of them, the spell includes the language of the being you turned into. But yes, it’s time to go.”

“Alright, Fluttershy and I will hang back in the rear to catch any stragglers,” I told them and in no time at all, we were flying toward their home.

^_^

The trip seemed longer than it was and looked more perilous than it was simply because of our small bodies. And Fluttershy trailed behind us the whole way there. The only hitch was when two of them fell back because they were tired and the lead breezy came back for a heart to heart. The good news was we got to the hole in the stone wall, which leads to their portal before the front hit us. Unfortunately, Fluttershy had to stay outside because the portal was too small for her to fit through.

“Alright, girls, make it fast,” I told them before they all flew through the portal, “the portal’s closing.” I stayed outside, hovering by Fluttershy’s head. “Beautiful place they got.”

“Yes, it is,” Fluttershy remarked sadly, “too bad I can’t join them.”

Turning to her, “Not to sound cruel, but you realize that if you sent them away earlier you would’ve had time.” I tried to make my voice sound non-judgmental.

She sighed with an understanding nod of her head, “Yes, I realize that now.”

A second later the lead breezy flew up to Fluttershy with a flower and put it in her hair. “To remember us by,” he said as the other girls were just coming back through the portal.

“Thank you,” Fluttershy cooed in return before he gave us a nod, turned around, and quickly flew back through the portal just as it closed shut.

“Wow, that was close,” Rainbow commented as we started toward the exit of the tone tunnel.

“It wouldn’t have been if I had just sent them on their way earlier.”

Twilight flew up on the other side of her head, “Don’t be too hard on yourself, Fluttershy. You were just being kind.”

“Actually, I was being kind to them when I sent them away,” Fluttershy told us after we left the tunnel. “Not when I was helping them stay. I know that now. Sometimes the kindest thing you can do is what’s best for them and not your own personal feelings or wants.”

“They’re home now, Fluttershy,” Twilight smiled to her before she activated her magic turning us back to normal again, “and that’s what counts.” Then everypony came in for a group hug before we started walking back to Ponyville.

^_^

When we got back into town it was understood without saying that I would go with Fluttershy back to her cottage. She still needed a little cheering up after what happened with the breezies. I wasn’t the only one though, Philomena accompanied her with me. She was on one side and I was on the other. And as we walked the look on her face showed that she was still feeling a little down.

“How are you feeling, Fluttershy?” I asked her, putting my arm around her shoulders hugging her to me.

She didn’t answer at first, appearing to think about how to answer it. “I’m ok,” she finally said after a little bit with her voice soft and contemplative. “I guess the lesson I learned today was an especially hard one for me.”

“It understandable,” Philomena told her putting a wing across her back. “You kind, so pushing some away would be hardest for you.”

“Yeah, it really was,” Fluttershy agreed with a slow nod, “but necessary for them to get home.”

“I know a way to cheer you up,” I told her with a mischievous smirk on my face.

“You do?” she looked up to me; curious at first before seeing the mischievous smirk.

“I do,” I gave her a soft lingering kiss then took her head into my hands. My gaze was soft and caring as I stared down at her, “Why don’t you simply relax and let Philomena and I do everything tonight?” By this time, we were walking up the path to her small cottage. It was relatively quiet, with the evening sun having started its journey down a couple of hours ago. Fluttershy’s face showed curiosity at my suggestion and blushed heavily when I suggested, “First starting with a bath in your tub.”

“Yes, let us do everything,” Philomena agreed as we led a blushing Fluttershy back into her cottage.

“You really don’t have to.” She was blushing beet red as we walked in. Her cottage was relatively quiet with only the smaller animals inside skittering around. Philomena was the last one in and shut the door behind us. Meanwhile, as Fluttershy was hiding behind her hair, with one eye peeking out, I started taking off my shirt.

Philomena walked behind Fluttershy and hugged her, which accomplished two things. First, was to keep her from getting away and hiding. The other was also to communicate our intent. “But we want to,” Philomena whispered into her ear as she hugged Fluttershy from behind.

My hands started untying the front of my pants.

“Watch,” Philomena whispered into her ear again, “as he undresses for us. Tonight is to make you feel loved.”

Fluttershy’s eyes widened as my pants fell from me, now with me only in my undies. I took both the shirt and the pants and gently laid them on the sofa behind me. It was satisfying to see the two girls watch me lower my undies for them, exposing my growing member.

Her eyes were latched onto my hardening member until I stepped up to her and lifted her head kissing her. It wasn’t a passionate I want you now kiss, but a soft loving lingering kiss. “Tonight we want you to feel loved,” I told her softly before moving behind her taking Philomena’s place. My arms wrapped around her. One across her breasts, with the hand caressing one bosom gently. The other hand rubbing her baby bump slowly. After planting a gentle kiss against her cheek and neck I rested my chin on top of her head. “Now watch, as she undresses for us.”

It was my pleasure to watch Philomena’s eyes lock onto mine as she lowered the straps of her dress off her shoulders. Her bright red lace bra and panties being exposed as she wiggled out of her basic sundress. As Philomena’s eyes locked onto mine and began lowering the straps of her bra off her shoulders, I gently started massaging Fluttershy’s breast I was holding. My ears picked up Fluttershy’s soft sigh of pleasure as Philomena’s bra fell from her, exposing her small full rounded firm breasts to us. And as my hand rubbed her baby bump Philomena took her panties in her hand and discarded them as well, putting her clothes onto the couch next to mine.

“Now close your eyes, sweet Fluttershy,” I whispered to her before kissing her cheek then her neck, “as we undress you. Then take you up to the bathroom for a long hot bath as we bathe you.”

With satisfaction, I saw her close her eyes. And with a nod from Philomena, we switched positions where I was now in front. Gently, I leaned down, took her head into my hands, and kissed her while my ears picked up the sound of Philomena unzipping the back of Fluttershy’s dress.

Fluttershy sighed into the kiss, leaning up against me with her hands exploring my waist. The soft fur of her fingers tingled against my skin sending shock waves through me.

Then I felt her dress go slack. Stepping back, Philomena helped take her dress from her shoulders while my hands lowered Fluttershy’s arms. A second later the dress fell softly to the floor exposing her bra and panties to us. They were simple, just like her, but of a very soft material that suited her well. And when my hands brushed lightly against the material of her bra, it felt good in them. My fingers felt along the soft edge of her bra as Philomena guided me to the clasps behind her. While doing so, Fluttershy’s wings slowly rose in the air while sighing at my touch. She leaned against me with an aroused sigh before lightly kissing my chest. When my fingers found the clasp of her bra, it was undone a second later.

Fluttershy whispered my name while she took off her bra herself before Philomena took it from her putting it on the couch. My lips met Fluttershy’s neck, “Feel loved, sweet Fluttershy.” Then kissed the other as Philomena stepped behind her again.

“You are his mate,” Philomena whispered as Fluttershy gently rubbed my head while my lips kissed down her neck to her chest.

“Let your breasts grow and fill with the fluid of life,” was my whisper to her while taking a bosom in both hands. She moaned softly, squeezing my head in her hands, while mine massaged her bosom before my lips kissed her hardened nipple.

“You grow with life, Fluttershy,” Philomena said happily as she gently massaged her other bosom from behind.

I moved to the other bosom to do the same.

“A mother is great calling in life,” Philomena said softly but with pride. “To bring life into world is great gift.”

Now Fluttershy began to relax back against Philomena while my lips trailed from her breasts down to our child. With my hands holding onto her side I kissed her belly while sitting on my knees. “A mother and gift I intend to treasure,” was my whisper and vow to her as my lips planted gently kiss after kiss around her belly.

The sound from Fluttershy was like a moan and a sigh at the same time that was filled with arousal and contentment. As she leaned back against Philomena, who was gently massaging her breasts, she was rubbing my head as I kissed her growing belly.

“It is time to wash and care for our treasure,” Philomena said before I stood up again taking Fluttershy’s hands in mine.

We led her upstairs to her bathroom where we filled the tub with hot water. And with her seated in my lap with Philomena sitting in front of her, we washed and bathed Fluttershy. And thanks to Philomena and Twilight my preening skills were getting better daily, so I did a good job on Fluttershy’s wings if I do say so myself. And I do.

^_^

Later, after we bathed, it was time for bed. Fluttershy got in first, naked, with me, also naked, then Philomena on top of me, naked also. Fluttershy was snuggling up against me with me on my back with her head laying next to Philomena’s on my chest. “Tonight was just wonderful,” Fluttershy cooed softly in the dark room, “Thank you.”

I kissed her forehead gently, “It appeared to help.”

She nodded against my chest with a sigh of contentment, “It did.” Then she lifted her head with a deep blush and a mischievous look on her face. It wasn’t clear what she was up to until I felt, and saw, her hand lower. Philomena took the hint and shifted to the side as Fluttershy’s hand gently stroked my semi-hard member. “But now I think it’s time for you and Philomena to be loved as well.”

Following suit, Philomena turned my head toward her. “Close eyes,” she said softly with a very alluring set of bedroom eyes on, “let your mates love you.”

I closed my eyes happily. It was easy to get aroused with Fluttershy’s fingers stroking my member. Especially when hearing Philomena’s soft voice fill my head with, “Give yourself to us.”

And I did.

^_^

“Good Eve, nephew,” Aunt Luna greeted after I fell asleep and found myself in her dreamscape again.

We hugged each other. “Good evening, Aunt Luna,” I greeted her with a hug. “How are you and things at the castle?”

“Troublesome, I’m afraid,” she said with concern on her face. The stars twinkled all around us as she put a wing across my back. “As you know there is a movement in the council against us.”

“Yes.”

“And as you suggested,” she continued with a tone of voice that I didn’t like, “the ponies that were in contact with Blueblood and his other prisoners were being watched.”

“Let me guess,” I winced, “there’s news.”

“Indeed,” she nodded solemnly. “Not only have those ponies been rallying the council against us as a means to stop the movement to end slavery, but the council just sent a letter, in supposed secret, to the Griffon kingdom.”

“The Griffon kingdom?” She nodded at me. “What on earth for?”

She shrugged, “It is unclear at this time. All that is known is that it has to deal with a very old law that stands between their kingdom and ours. My guess is that the council intends to create some sort of conflict in order to bring Equestria into a crisis just to stop the movement.”

I shook my head at the thought, “But that’s insane. Are they really willing to get both ponies and people hurt just to keep slavery?”

“It appears that some in the council is willing to do just that,” she lamented with a sigh and shake of her head.

“Damn,” was my whispered response after a minute of thought.

“Indeed.”

“However, let us forget that and go onto more pleasant matters,” she smiled over at me. “Who would you like to join tonight?”

And after some thought, I told her, “Rarity. She’s the only one that I think I need to work on. She’s come around and now calls me a friend, but I wonder what her subconscious thinks of me.”

“Very well, close your eyes,” she told me and I did.

When I opened them again, Rarity was walking in front of me up the stairs of her boutique to the second floor. I was wearing my casual outfit while she was wearing a simple, yet fetching, single-piece dress. Other than the sound of her hooves against the floor there weren’t any other sounds. My eyes followed her sensuous form up the stairs until she stopped halfway up and turned to look down at me. The look in her eyes was as if she was a young girl flirting over her crush. She smiled while biting her bottom lip a little. And hesitated before telling me, “Why don’t you come upstairs with me?”

I had no clue what was going on. So, my response was a simple question of, “You want me with you?”

A hand lifted up to twirl a curl of her hair while she slowly nodded, “I do. It’s alright, Fred.” With that, I followed her up the stairs to the second floor. My eyes couldn’t help but follow the gentle sway of her hips as we walked down the hallway and into her room. And when she smiled up at me, after closing the door behind her, I looked down at her expectantly. Because, again, I had no clue what was going on. “Instead of going out to dinner, why don’t we stay here?” she asked with a hopeful look in her eyes, but with something else in them. Like a certain mischievousness that’s only found in shy girls around their new attractive boyfriends.

I smiled down in return, “If that is what you prefer then that’s fine with me. I want to get to know you either way.”

She took a step closer putting a hand on my chest, “I do as well, Fred.” Then she looked down at my chest as if in thought. When she spoke next, her voice was sad and sorrowful. “I’m sorry I didn’t do this sooner.” It was clear that it was something that she needed to say, so I remained quiet. “Over the months that I’ve known you, you’ve been nothing but everything my counterpart told me. A true gentleman, as she puts it, chivalrous, kind, and caring. You’ve shown me how to let go of my hate. You’ve shown me nothing but the kind of love and care a true friend should. Through that, I see now how wrong it is to enslave another sentient being. How human slavery is wrong.” She took a breath then looked up at me with a gentle smile on her face as she placed her other hand on my chest. “You are truly a prince, Fred Justice. One that I’m happy and proud to know and be my friend.” Then she closed her eyes, stepped up, and put her arms around me in a hug.

With a happy hum of my own, my arms went around her hugging her in return. “The greatest battle is with one’s deepest and darkest self. To see a part of yourself that you need to change and have the courage to do so. You’ve done that Rarity. And so, you truly are a beautiful lady, both inside and outside.”

She was careful of her horn when she rubbed her head against my chest with a soft sigh.

And for a little while, I simply held her against me with my hands gently rubbing against her back.

Until the dream faded due to the approaching dawn.
