(Emmit’s POV, Canterlot)

The girls came with me back to Canterlot when I got word that news from Cadence and Shining Armor had arrived. Twilight had Glimmer and Spike to stay behind and watch over the place while they were gone. We had lunch before we left, so it was about mid-afternoon when the train pulled into Canterlot station.

“CANTERLOT,” came the conductor’s call through the train as it jerked to a stop letting out the clichéd hiss of steam.

“Emmit, darling,” Rarity immediate spoke up while batting her eyelids at me, “would you be a dear and get my bags please?”

“Uh, Rarity? Do you have to bring your whole house with you when you travel?” Rainbow snickered out the question while I made my way out of the car to grab Rarity’s luggage from the storage underneath.

“But of course,” she responded as my ears picked up the sound of them gathering their things. “One never knows when inspiration will strike.” I used my ability to levitate all of her bags from underneath the car and set them down in front of me. In two large piles. “We don’t know why we were called here, so it might be a very important occasion.”

“Is that going to be too much for you?” came sweet Fluttershy’s soft voice from behind me.

“I can understand being prepared, Rarity,” I heard AJ’s voice still in the car with Rarity. “But this is a bit much, even for Emmit.”

Turning around I gave her a patient smile, “No it’s not. After all, I can always lift a whole house in a single spell.” Of course, I was being sarcastic.

AJ and Rarity were the last two off as Twilight, Rainbow, and Pinkie had already made their way over to me. “Oh it’s not,” Rarity dismissed AJ’s thought with a prideful huff, “he’s a lot stronger than he looks.” As she spotted me when she stepped out, she gave me a wink, “You can trust me on that.”

“I wouldn’t know,” Rainbow pouted, crossing her front hooves over her chest as she hovered above me, “you keep him to yourselves. Heat season is in just three months. Can’t you let me borrow him just this once? You’re the headmare after all.”

“I may be headmare, Rainbow Dash, but I’ll still have to talk with Tia and Luna about it,” Rarity teased her. Yeah, Especially Luna for obvious reasons. And there’s a possibility that I only have three months to get Nightmare Moon on my side.

“How are you doing?” Leaning over I whispered to Fluttershy as the girls watched Rarity and Rainbow go at it. It’s been about a month and a half since our coupling.

“I’m ok,” she whispered back, “The diet change has already started. I’ve even eaten…meat…already.”

I kissed her on her forehead and whispered, “It was to be expected, but it’s only for about nine months.” And as if on cue that’s when Rarity mentioned about the possibility of eating meat to Rainbow.

“Besides,” Rarity grinned at Rainbow, “If you get pregnant with Emmit’s foal then there’s a strong possibility that you’ll have to eat meat in order to keep the foal healthy. Would it be worth it?”

With another patient sigh, I levitated all the bags and motioned for the girls to simply start walking. With a few giggles, they started walking or bouncing in Pinkie’s case, away from the train. The girls were in front of me with the two large floating piles of bags behind me and we still were hearing Rarity and Rainbow go at it.

“Well?”

“I’m thinking about it,” Rainbow replied. Meanwhile, Fluttershy was walking beside me with a couple of my tails laying across her back. “Wait a minute,” Rainbow said after a minute of thought. Then we heard the sound of her flapping wings approach us. “Hey, Fluttershy? Since you got pregnant, have you been eating meat?”

“Oh…um…well…,” she was hesitant to say naturally but she did after a nod from me, “Yes, actually.”

“What’s that like?” Rainbow asked. Every ear of the rest of the girls was also tuned in and paying attention as well. We had left the station and was walking toward the castle.

“During pregnancy,” she began and with a voice that sounded like a teacher, “the body changes according to the needs of the foal. And with our foal being an omnivore my body has changed to meet that need. So, the meat actually doesn’t taste bad when I eat it now.”

“I don’t know if I could handle that,” Rainbow winced.

“But that’s what Princess Celestia has been doing since she got pregnant,” Fluttershy clarified. “She’s been eating meat as well.”

“Yeah, but at least she’s only about a month away from giving birth,” Rainbow sounded relieved, “so, she doesn’t have to deal with it that much longer.”

“Should we change the subject?” Twilight whispered at me with a roll of her eyes.

I shook my head at her with a wide smirk, “And mess up this? They’re boosting my ego, why would I want to?”

Twilight simply shook her head and rolled her eyes at me, “Stallions,” and trotted forward to walk with AJ and Pinkie.

^_^

Because it was mid-afternoon, Luna was still asleep, but because of whatever the news was Tia wanted to meet us all in her room. Once there the guards opened up the doors for us. “Tia?” I called out as the door opened. My eyes spotted her laying on her side in her bed while looking over some papers. Her eyes lit up when she saw me and the girls walking in. She started to get up, but I halted her, “Now don’t get up, we’ll join you.” She nodded with a delightful giggle as I got up onto the bed and laid down behind her with a couple of tails over her.

“Welcome back,” she cooed at me before giving me a long loving kiss that I returned greedily.

“Thank you,” I said back happily before putting a paw over her and rubbing her bulging belly lightly. The rest of the girls got up onto the large bed and laid down around in front of us. It was then that our foal started to kick at where my paw was.

“Oh, oh there he or she goes,” Tia giggled happily as our foal kicked at my paw. The girls cooed and giggled at the sight. “Yes, daddy’s here.”

Resting my head up against hers, my paw rubbed her belly firmly letting our foal follow it. “Daddy loves you,” I cooed at our foal softly.

“You know what it’s going to be?” Rainbow asked curiously.

Tia answered while I continued watching her belly, “No, we wanted it to be a surprise for us. We don’t know if it will be a filly or colt.”

“Nor even what he or she will look like,” I mused, looking at them. “Whether it will be bi-pedal and anthropomorphic or four-legged like yourselves.”

“Complete mystery,” Twilight seemed to space out for a second as the scientific possibilities ran through her head. “That’s right. This is unprecedented in all of Equestrian history. Emmit is both four-legged as well as bi-pedal in nature and has created an offspring with an Alicorn.”

“Not to mention a pegasus,” Fluttershy smiled with a blush. I smiled at her with a sly wink which she giggled in return.

“Oh that’s right,” Twilight gave her a nod.

“But in Fluttershy slash Flutterbat’s case the Empress is helping to steer that one,” I told them.

“You already know what they’re going to be?” Pinkie asked with pent up excitement, squealing softly.

“Yes,” Fluttershy answered happily, “One of each, like us but with bat attributes.” They were a little confused so she clarified, “She told me that if Flutterbat had foals with another pony then they would...well…” She looked at me to finish.

“If she mated with another pony then they would become Vampires, essentially,” I continued for her. They gasped softly with some fear evident in their eyes which was natural and concern for Fluttershy. “That’s why she had her mate with me, to steer their appetite toward meat and not blood. They will have bat attributes such as bat-like wings and even fangs with cat-like eyes, but be an omnivore like me.”

“You’ll be the mother of an entirely new Equestrian species of pony,” Twilight had stars in her eyes because of the scientific repercussions. “This is such an exciting time.”

“Oh, Fluttershy, one question?” Rainbow spoke up eagerly with her eyes locked onto Fluttershy as if she had the answer to the meaning of life.

“Yes?”

“What was Emmit like when he-”

“Rainbow Dash!” Rarity interrupted her, using her magic to bop a pillow against her head. “To ask her such a thing!”

“What?” Rainbow pouted with a slight huff of disappointment. “A girl wants to know.” Then she whispered under her breath where only Tia and I could hear, “Bet he was amazing,” while gazing over at me.

“Anyhow,” AJ spoke up to change the subject, looking at Tia, “Didn’t you say there was some type of announcement?”

“Oh yes,” Tia said as her face lit up with joy. “I got a letter from Cadence and Shining Armor inviting all of us to Flurry Heart’s Crystalling!”

The girls all erupted in joy and started talking about it. Twilight started saying on such a momentous occasion it was and the history behind it. Meanwhile, my mind had jumped to the word, “Crystalling,” and what it meant. It was the start of season six of the show and the last season that I watched before being pulled here. My mind started rushing ahead toward the end of that season and what it meant for my new family. Fear started creeping up in my mind at knowing who was ponynapped during the last two episodes.

“Sugarcube?” AJ’s concerned voice broke my thoughts and brought me back into the present. “What’s wrong?”

“Yeah, what’s up stud? Looks like you’ve seen a ghost,” Rainbow commented with concern as well.

I looked over at Tia with a calming sigh. “Remember how I told you about the show I watched about you guys before coming here?”

“Yeah, why?” Twilight questioned.

“Because the Crystalling of Flurry Heart was the start of season six of the show and the last season I watched before coming here,” I told them.

“There’s more isn’t there, Emmit?”

With a nod to Rarity, I continued, “It’s what happened at the end of that season that worries me.”

“What happened?” Tia’s voice was now filled with caution and worry now that she had a foal to think about. And it was in her eyes as she looked up at me.

“This doesn’t leave this room,” I told them firmly. “You can’t tell anypony about this. For the fate of Equestria depends on the correct outcome.” One by one they nodded as the gravity of what I’m about to say hits them. “During the last two episodes, Chrysalis makes her move against Equestria. Very quietly and very quickly she ponynaps everypony in this room, along with Luna, Cadence, Shining Armor, and Flurry Heart and replaces them with a drone to take their place.” They all gasp at the news. Tia has a look of horror in her eyes. “The only pony that will notice this will be Starlight Glimmer when she returns to town. With no one listening to her, and after getting an emergency dream message from Luna, she will seek the aid of her future friend Trixie.”

“Trixie?” Twilight interrupts with a slight disapproving growl.

“In spite of what you feel about her now, Twilight,” I continued. “It will be Starlight Glimmer, Trixie, Discord, and a changeling named Thorax will be the ones to defeat her and rescue everypony.”

“Discord? Really?” AJ asked in shock to which I nodded in return.

“Do you know where everypony will be taken?” Tia asks.

“I do.”

“Great then we can stomp her now before it even happens,” Rainbow sits up in the bed, tapping her front hooves together. Immediately the other girls start agreeing with her.

“No, we can’t.”

“What?! Why not, stud?”

“Because of Thorax, Rainbow,” I continued. “Thorax will be upset at the direction that Chrysalis is taking the changelings. He believes that the changelings and ponies can live in peace with one another. And he’s right.”

“What do you mean?” Tia asked cautiously.

“I mean, honey,” I looked down at her, “that what the changelings look now isn’t their true form. The defeat of Chrysalis comes directly from Thorax as he gives love instead of taking it. He gives all his love to Chrysalis which in turn destroys her throne, defeating her, and transforming him.”

“Transforming him?” Tia asked breathlessly as the other girls listened intently with bated breath.

“Yes,” I nodded before getting an idea, “let me show you.” And with my ability, I put up a screen at the end of the bed wide enough and large enough so everypony could see. “I’ll show you the last episode and you’ll see the transformation I’m referring to and why it’s so important.” It was only because of my new mental abilities that I was able to show them the whole last show flawlessly for them. At the start of the episode, they all agreed how weird it felt seeing them up on the screen before them. But after that, they all went quiet and watched as it played out before them. When it came toward the end when Chrysalis was defeated, they gasped and murmured in awe after he changed and that one by one each changeling did the same. Twilight was especially disappointed when Chrysalis batted Glimmer’s hoof away and took off cursing at her. Soon after the screen went blank.

“Well I’ll be,” AJ softly exclaimed in awe.

“I’ll say,” Rainbow echoed as they all turned back toward Tia and I, “Who knew that the changelings could even do that?”

I chuckled at her when she said that and she just stuck her tongue out at me. “I never saw any more episodes after that,” I told them, “but I have a feeling that it will be a major turning point in Equestrian history.”

“The changelings could be our ally,” Tia mused already thinking about it. “Especially with Thorax as our friend and being the new leader of the changed changeling kingdom. They will be able to live in peace with us.”

“Exactly. Which is why it must play out like that or in a similar fashion.”

“Similar fashion?” Twilight questioned cautiously at me.

“Yes, Twilight because as you remember how some things aren’t exactly like it was in the show. Because I’m here, there were some differences. It’s those differences that worry me,” I told them.

Twilight sighed with a nod, “That’s true.”

“Alright, so why can’t we go get him and throw him a be our friend party?” Pinkie questioned already thinking about the celebration.

“Because he needs to come to us, Pinkie,” I told her firmly but gently. “He’ll come to us and befriend Spike first a few months from now. That will be the clue that it’s close to happening. But let him make the first move.”

“Okie dokie lokie.”

“What needs to happen is starting a friendship between Starlight Glimmer and Trixie. Let Thorax come to us. And I’ll talk with Discord about Fluttershy.” I looked over at her with a small smile. “He’ll want to know about this.”

“Wow,” Twilight softly mumbled, “this is a lot to take in.”

“I know, but this is months away, so there’s plenty of time to start Starlight on her friendship lessons,” I gave Twilight a knowing smile.

“How did…,” she started saying then sighed, “Of course, you know what’s going to happen.”

“What happened in the show,” I corrected. “What actually happens, might be a little different. Hopefully similar enough though. All I can say, Twilight, is just have her seek out her old friend Sunburst, who is living in the Crystal Empire, as a friendship lesson before we go. Then let it play out as it should.”

“Alright, if you say so,” Twilight relented.

A knock was heard from the door. “Come in,” Tia announced and when the door opened it was the solar captain.

“Your Highness,” he came in and saluted to her. Then focused on me, “Sire, we have been able to track down the pony responsible for trying to resurrect Blackheart.”

That immediately got my attention. “You have? Where?” I asked lifting up my head with an eager look in my eyes.

“We’ve tracked him to a house in the middle-class part of Canterlot,” he told me. “There’s a team staking the place out now, but there’s been no sign of him showing up yet. His name is Cold Facade and was born into a very secret religious organization. This organization was created and ran before your time princess. It still exists to this day and he has become the pronounced member due to his research into history and ancient magic.”

“Religious?” Rainbow questioned with a disbelieving look.

“Yes, Rainbow,” Twilight spoke up, immediately going into lecture mode. “Before the time of Celestia, Luna, and even their parents, the citizens of Equestria was more religious toward the sun and the moon. So, it’s not surprising that an organization, such as that, was created. It is surprising that it has lasted this long into the modern age.”

“I agree,” I stood up from behind Tia, acknowledging what Twilight said. “It is odd, but it does explain a few things.” Then my eyes locked onto the captain’s, “I want to join the lookout team. It’s personal.”

He gave me an understanding nod, “I understand, sire.”

“Tia? Think you could turn my coat black like Luna does?”

“Yes,” she told me as I stepped around her getting in front of her. She ignited her horn, trusting her that it wasn’t a high powered risk spell, and after feeling the spell wash over me my coat turned black.

“Thanks, honey,” leaning down I kissed her, which she returned in earnest with caution in her eyes.

“Be careful,” she cautioned with a worried look in her eyes.

“I will,” with a smile to her I leaned down to Fluttershy, giving her a light kiss as well. She blushed as she kissed me back, softly saying the same. “I’ll see you later girls,” I told them before stepping over to Rarity giving her a passionate goodbye kiss. Rarity told me to be careful as well with the girls saying so long or goodbye, but Rainbow looked at me with a “go get him” look on her face.

^_^

I hated to cut short our visit after just gotten there, but I wanted this guy and bad. The solar captain led me into the city where the team was stationed, then dismissed himself going back to the castle. At first, the ponies treated me like they would Tia and Luna, which was fine. However, after a little bit, they finally started to loosen up a bit as we waited. I got a little more information on the unicorn in question. He was a middle-aged stallion with a brown coat and an aging white mane and tail. What was surprising to me was where we were stationed.

We borrowed the rooftop of an apartment complex that was in the middle-class part of the city that butted up against the higher class area. They informed me that the building across the street from us, a simple two-story home had changed hands many times over its lifetime. Only recently as last year was it bought out to a pony with a bogus name. That bogus name belonged to Cold Facade and has been known to use many fake names over the years. Fitting considering his real last name and its meaning.

Day turned into night and with still no sign of the stallion, the solar guard was replaced by the lunar guard. With me was the lunar captain, a flirty unicorn mare that loves to make me blush. The Major, an experienced pegasus stallion that never seems to loosen up and is a stickler for regulations, but a great flier that’s almost as fast as Rainbow. And the Sergeant, which is the muscle of the group being a powerful earth pony stallion. The captain and I were laying next to each other on the rooftop, the major was in the air, while the sergeant was disguised as a city worker and watched the house at street level.

It’s been hours since I’ve joined the team watching the house and nothing has been seen of Facade. That has only given the flirty Lunar Captain fuel to mess with me.

“Word is, that you and Luna have been getting a little...adventurous...in where you rut her.” Her voice wafted over to me and was filled with a flirtatious alluring tone to it. Not to mention her tail brushing up against my hip. “Like right in front of a solar mare guard? Word is she’s still worked up about it to this day.”

Got me blushing a little, so I gave her a soft noncommittal hum of acknowledgment.

She giggled at that, moving closer to me enough to whisper into my ear, “Oh come now, my handsome king.” The tip of her tail was also starting to explore. “There’s a rumor that you two rut in other ponies dreams. Now that’s clever, my handsome sexy king.”

“That’s just rumor,” I told her though I think she could hear the slight nervousness in my voice. Truth be told we were doing that, but I wasn’t about to tell her either. I tried keeping my eyes on the building, but it was difficult with the tip of her tail rubbing against me near my member. I’m a guy and she’s an attractive mare after all.

She rolled over onto her side, facing me and lifting her leg exposing herself to me, “Come now, you can tell your dearly devoted captain.” It was hard not to look at how she was deliberately presenting herself to me. But luckily other matters turned up.

The communication orb bleeped to life between us. “Captain?” came the sergeant’s alerted voice from it, “Facade cited with a mare heading toward the building across the street.”

The captain was all business in a heartbeat it took her to roll back over, though now almost up against me now. “Good job, sergeant,” she replied. “Got him,” she whispered to me, motioning down across the street.

My eyes spotted the pony she was referring to, but the middle-aged unicorn stallion wasn’t alone either. He had a mare with him. She seemed to be of a Jane Doe type with a light brown coat and a dark brown mane and tail. Nothing seemed special about the mare at all. Even her cutie mark seemed non-descript. And both of them almost seemed to blend into the shadows cast by the street lamps due to their coat colors as well. “Damn it,” muttered softly as my eyes followed them as they walked up to the gate to the property, “he’s got a mare with him.”

“I don’t like her,” she whispered as the two of them walked through the gate, “she screams ‘ignore me.’”

“Yeah, got that feeling,” I agreed.

“They’re entering the building now,” came the Major’s voice through the orb.

“Good eyes, Major,” she replied. “Alright team,” she continued, “Sergeant, I want you to cross the street and cover the front entrance in case they try and make a break for it. Major, meet us across the street at the adjacent building next door and get Emmit’s listener ready.”

“Yes, ma’am,” came both of their replies simultaneously through the orb.

“Showtime,” she whispered and disappeared in a flash of magic. Meanwhile, I used my dash ability to quickly get across the street and on top of the other roof. If anypony saw me, all they might see is something like a shadow moving. When I got there, the sergeant was in place, the major had my listener ready, and the captain was just turning it on. We were literally about fifteen yards from a window we could see into. Luckily for us, the roof we were on was flat with a raised edge for us to hide behind. And with it being pitch black out with a new moon, thanks to Luna, there was almost no chance for them to see us.

“Explain this contraption to me again?” the Major questioned quietly.

“It’s from the human world, Major,” I told him with a smirk. “The idea is simple. The voices inside the room will make the glass in the window vibrate although you can’t see it. This device uses light against the window to pick up those vibrations. Then it uses one of your spells to convert those vibrations back into sound for us to hear.”

“But…there’s no light against the window,” he seemed to point out.

“There is, Major. You just can’t see it,” I explained. “Light is in what humans called a spectrum. There is visible light and then there’s light that the eyes can’t see but is there nonetheless. It’s the unseen light that we’re using. That way they can’t see it either.”

He was still a little confused. “Then how do you know it’s working?”

“Good question,” I replied then with a smirk I motioned for the captain to point it across the street to the building we were at. And to the window that was just under us. “We tested it, of course. But…”

As soon as the infrared light hit the window moaning was suddenly heard from the device. One male and one female. “Buck me, buck me harder,” came a mare’s voice. I smirked at the blushing major. The captain was winking at me, so I turned the device back to the window we were watching.

“Aw, but I liked that channel,” she teased with a fake whine. “I want to know how it ends.”

“Don’t worry, there’s an intense climax at the end,” I teased back much to the irritated groans of the Major and the Sergeant. Meanwhile, the Captain was looking at me with stars in her eyes. But thankfully, that didn’t last long.

“Here they come,” the Major pointed out which refocused our attention to the task at hand. But when we looked into the room we were shocked when the mare dropped her disguise.

“Crap, we got a changeling,” cursed as the mare walked.

“The changelings are involved?” the Sergeant questioned then cursed.

“You succeeded in getting what I needed for the ritual,” Façade told the drone as they faced each other in the room. “So, there’s no need for you to stay under cover at the castle. However, Queen Chrysalis has left it up to you whether or not you want to stay.”

We watched the drone smirk at him then changed again. This time into a pony I was relatively familiar with. “I believe I can,” the drone now spoke in a soft demure tone of voice in a maid’s outfit. A young-looking maid that I’ve been seeing in the castle for almost as long as I’ve been in Equestria. “Who would ever suspect a timid maid such as myself?”

Let’s just say you don’t want to know the quiet cursing I was doing under my breath as the conversation continued.

Façade chuckled at her, “They haven’t so far. So, if you plan on staying then you need to know that Chrysalis plans to move against the Crystal Kingdom during the Crystalling. We need to know who all is going to be there.”

“That would be the human, Celestia, Luna, Twilight and her friends,” she told them.

“Move! Now!” I growled then literally dashed into action not waiting for the captain’s word to the others. My tail attack proved useful in getting my way through the glass window and sending shards of glass in their direction. The all hell broke loose.

“GUARDS!” Façade screamed right before he disappeared faster than I could act.

However, the changeling wasn’t so lucky. Right after landing I sent out a quick wave of heat and pressure that sent the changeling into the far wall. “Façade teleported,” I yelled into the communicator. As the captain was shouting her response and issued orders to search for Façade, the changeling was groaning and trying to get back up. “No you don’t,” was my war cry and used my body to pin her against the wall in one quick movement. She struggled at first with one front paw against her head and another against her horn. Thanks to my time with my wives I knew that hard pressure against a horn will keep a unicorn from concentrating on their magic. Thus keeping the changeling here right where I want her.

“Let me go,” she had the nerve to hiss out a demand, using one eye to glare at me. “My queen will kill me if she knows that I failed.”

“Well then,” grinning from ear to ear I gave her another option, “then let me give you the opportunity to live. Cooperate and tell us everything you know, and we’ll give you protection.”

She paused, while her mind ran through it. “Or?” she questioned after a minute or two.

Leaning in where my muzzle was near her ear I whispered the only alternative, “I snap your neck. Here and now. Because no one, and I mean no one, goes after my family. Do you understand?”

She nodded slowly at me with her body trembling slightly in fear.

“So, what’s your decision?” I glared at her, secretly hoping that she’ll choose life and cooperate with us.

“I don’t want to die,” she whispered, trembling. “I’ll cooperate. I’ll tell you everything I know.”

The paw on her throat eased up some, but I kept the pressure against her horn. “Good girl,” my voice softened as well.

After teleporting into the room with a flash of magic the captain reported with an apologetic salute, “Sorry, sir, but Façade got away.”

“That’s alright, Captain,” I told her facing her with a knowing smile. “Bring the Major and the Sergeant here. With a magic suppressor for our new friend here. She has decided to cooperate and tell us everything she knows.”

“Aye, sir,” she saluted again then gave the commands through the orb while I kept watch on our new changeling friend.

^_^

Luna sat on the throne in shocked silence as the captain and I told her what had transpired just a short time ago. And was still in shocked silence after we were done, so I thanked the Captain sending her on her way. While I took my place by her side, putting a couple of tails around her to comfort her. Hopefully bringing her out of her mind lock.

“That poor mare,” Luna finally whispered, leaning into me for moral support. “I can only imagine what they are doing to her right now.” Referring to the mare the changeling copied and replaced in the castle.

“That I can’t tell you,” I kissed her cheek gently in comfort. “However, the changeling admitted that she’s the only one in the castle. And even if she’s lying I don’t want to check everypony either. That would get everypony paranoid, including us.”

She looked over at me with the gears turning in her head. “I can see your point.”

I continued softly and gently, “You think the pony populace wants to sacrifice their freedom for safety? Does the cost of being safe means giving up freedom entirely? Making life a prison?”

She was silent again as her mind mulled it over. “No,” she quietly replied.

I kissed her again, happy in her answer.

She returned it with a soft hum, content being with me. “What else did she tell us?”

“That she doesn’t know anything more than what Façade has told her. They are planning on making a move during the Crystalling, which complicates things. And that they used some genetic material from me in another ritual. The same one that brought my mother over,” I sighed as my mind thought through the possibilities.

Luna was quick and thought it as well. “You think…?”

I nodded against her cheek, “Yes, it’s possible the ritual was to bring over another one of my family. One problem with that is, the only one that still lives would be my father.”

She draped a wing over me, hugging me, “Oh, Emmit.”

“The simple fact that the changelings are involved is bad enough,” I continued with my voice showing my frustration and fear. “Now there’s a possibility they brought my father over into this.” She didn’t say anything to that and simply held me while my mind went through the many possibilities. There’s no telling what’s going to happen now. Of course, she sensed my distress because she turned my head and gave me a slow loving kiss.

Then said, “Let me take your mind off of it for a while.”

^_^

I thought she meant one on one for a while. That wasn’t the case. What she did was bring me into her room, kept me in my black coat coloring, and told me to wait. So, I got up onto her moon bed and laid down facing the door. Thinking that she’ll be back with either Rarity or Tia or both. Minutes pass. Finally, the door opens again and in steps in Luna, Tia, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rainbow. Now I could understand Luna, Tia, and Rarity, but Fluttershy and Rainbow too? The confusion was evident on my face as they walked in and up to the bed. Rainbow was in front with Rarity and Fluttershy behind her with Tia and Luna behind them.

“Hey stud,” Rainbow greeted, clearly a little confused as well, “What’s up?”

I gave her a small shrug, “I don’t know. I’m just as clueless as you are.” That’s where Rainbow turns around facing four smiling faces.

“Remember how you’ve been asking and asking for Emmit to rut you?” Rarity asked Rainbow with a grin on her face making me both excited and nervous at the same time.

Rainbow perked up immediately. Her tail raised slightly and swayed to and fro and her wings fluttered in anticipation and growing excitement. “Yeah?” but there was also caution in her voice as well. I knew something was up. Fluttershy was starting to blush heavily.

“Well we’ve decided,” Rarity cooed softly while taking a peek over at Fluttershy, then to Tia and Luna, “that if he wants, he can.”

Rainbow’s wings snapped open with her tail raising more to give me a glimpse down below, due to how low the bed was compared to the floor. “What? Really?”

“Really?” I echoed Rainbow’s question while looking over at them in disbelief. Is there a catch somewhere?

And as if sensing my question, Rainbow asked, “What’s the catch? I’ve been after him for a while and all of a sudden this?” She may be cautious but that didn’t stop her body from getting excited over the prospect of me rutting her though. Her body was giving off waves of excitement over it. Fluttering wings, shifting her stance, and even taking a glance back at me. Though she did have a great question, which I wanted an answer to as well.

“The catch my dear Rainbow Dash,” Rarity cooed at her taking a step forward, “is that you commit yourself to him and to him only. You are to be his mare and his mare alone.” She then started stepping around her and onto the bed with me.

Rainbow watched Rarity with a face showing part excitement and part uncertainty. “You mean, I can’t rut any other stallion?”

Rarity hummed in agreement as she leaned down giving me a passionate kiss before laying down next to me. “That is correct, Rainbow Dash,” Rarity cooed while using her magic to bring my front paw around her and placing it against her barrel. Then I started lowering my paw down her body. “Give yourself to him, Rainbow Dash,” she breathed passionately as her hoof lowered my paw down against her marehood, lifting her hind leg for me. And at her urging, my paw started rubbing her marehood firmly. “Your new master,” Rarity moaned turning her head giving me another passionate kiss.

“Master?!” I heard Rainbow’s shocked voice squeak out in shock.

And when Rarity and I broke our kiss she could see the shocked look in my eyes as well. Surely she wasn’t serious about it, right? Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Fluttershy turn into Flutterbat, spread her wings and fly over Rainbow to land behind me on the bed. She laid down up against me, kissing my neck before hissing out to Rainbow, “Yes, Rainbow, our master. The new pony race being spawned is to serve him for all time.”

Now I was looking at Flutterbat with a shocked look, but she caught my lips in a passionate kiss of her own.

“Master?!” Rainbow asked again, her voice quietly echoing her continued shock.

I was able to turn and look again after breaking the kiss from Flutterbat, who continued to lick and kiss my neck. At the same time Rarity continued urging my paw to rub against her marehood making her start to moan softly. Luna and Tia both winked at me behind Rainbow’s back, stepped up to her, and both of them put a wing around her.

“Yes, Rainbow Dash,” Tia cooed softly into her ear while rubbing her womb. “Our master. I’m giving my master a foal for his continued kingdom.”

Luna joined in with, “And I will control the new thestral race under the rulership of my master.”

I think this is a role-playing thing they are doing here. At least the part about the master bit. Don’t think they were joking about the commitment though. Rainbow’s face still showed confusion and shock which wasn’t surprising. What was surprising was when Luna backed up a little and planted her lips right between Rainbow’s wings. The effect was instantaneous. Her eyes went wide with a shivering sudden intake of breath even as Tia whispered and cooed into her ear.

“Just think of him rutting you. He’ll be in his fox form, rutting you from behind, his tails and a paw wrapped around you. His grunting breath brushing against your ear as he moans his pleasure to you. The pleasure that you are giving him.” Tia was laying it on thick. She even looked up at me with bedroom eyes as she moaned the words into Rainbow’s ear. Meanwhile, Rainbow’s eyes were locked onto me, wide with arousal and need. “The pleasure so intense it makes your body shiver.” Tia moaned as she nibbled Rainbow’s ear before continuing. “Making you want to surrender everything to him. Your body, your mind, and even your soul is his.”

“And you give it freely,” Luna cooed into the other one when she stopped massaging between Rainbow’s wings to whisper into Rainbow’s ear.

“Just as I have,” Rarity cooed, using her magic to bring my head around for a passionate kiss. Rarity was dripping wet at this point with her waist, and her hoof, urging me faster.

“Both of us,” Flutterbat and Fluttershy said simultaneously while feeling her teeth rub gently against my neck possessively.

“What do you say, Rainbow Dash?” Tia questioned softly while nibbling gently on Rainbow’s ear. “Want to become a fellow sister?”

“I…,” she whispered with her voice filled with both desire and caution. That didn’t stop her from moaning softly because of Tia’s nibbling and Luna kissing between her wings again. And her eyes, wide and filled with desire and want, didn’t leave mine either. But slowly her eyes softened from shock to those bedroom eyes. “I’ll do it,” her whisper was more like a moan of pleasure as she turned, lowered her head to the floor, and lifted her tail for me.

“Go to her,” Rarity encouraged softly and after another kiss.

Almost in a trance at what was before me, I stood up from the bed, and up to Rainbow.

“You’ll give yourself to him, and him alone?” Tia asked.

“Forsaking all other stallions?” Luna questioned.

“Yes,” Rainbow moaned as I lowered my muzzle between her legs, “I’ll be his. I’m his mare.” She was wet already. The scent of her arousal hit my nose before the taste of her hit my tongue. I got the satisfaction of hearing her moan in pleasure while tasting her, my tongue licking her wet folds. And because there was no apparent harm in playing the part, my tongue played with her folds. I wanted her to want me enough to ask for it.

However, I wasn’t the only one who wanted it that way. I didn’t notice Rarity getting off the bed and approaching one side of me with Fluttershy/bat on the other side. My ears picked up the soft encouraging moan of Rarity before her words hit my ears, “Claim her, my master.” Thanks to Tia’s little wink, I knew that it was just role playing, but damn if it wasn’t a turn on for me. Even Fluttershy/bat got into it by licking and running her fangs across my neck whispering how they’re all mine.

Even Rainbow started grinding her sex against my muzzle and tongue, moaning louder. It was satisfying to hear the effect I was having on her. Her deep breaths, moans, and whines of pleasure was music to my ears. Then she did what I hoped she would. She asked for it.

“Please…master,” her voice was soft and timid like a mouse, doing an excellent impression of Fluttershy. The perfect tone of submissive eagerness. “Please don’t tease.” She even raised her head and turned around to face me, “Buck me, please.”

Her pleading look and moaning words were impossible to ignore. After rising up, I stepped forward and over her. Due to me being almost twice her size, I could almost stand directly over her without her kneeling. However, it was easy considering she was already lowered to the floor with her rump raised for me. As I stood over her, with the tip just touching her folds, she raised her head up to rub her cheek against mine. I could feel her rainbow tail wrap around my waist beginning to encourage me inside of her. She wasn’t the only one either, and felt a hoof from both Rarity and Fluttershy/bat on my rump, also encouraging me inside of her.

So, I did.

Her warm wet folds stretched to accommodate me sending shivers of pleasure through me. My tails came forward, as far as they could, to cover her body. I reached a front paw off the floor, under her and against her body. Pulling her up and firmly against my own body, her back against my chest. Her wings seemed to caress up and around my body indicating her level of arousal. She had taken me fully inside of her. And as she used a hoof of her own to grip my paw she moaned into my ear her approval and excitement. My own eyes closed so I could feel her body. I wanted to know every inch and curve.

“Our new sister,” Tia lowered her head and whispered to Rainbow then kissed her forehead. That was followed by Luna, Rarity, and then Fluttershy all whispering, “sister,” into her ear.

(Twilight’s POV, Aprx. One Hour Later)

AJ’s body complained with a yawn as she and Pinkie walked beside me down the hall. “I’m sure it’s nothing, Twilight,” AJ reassured me after another yawn. And I’ll never understand how Pinkie can still be smiling and bouncing this early in the morning. But she was anyway, on the other side of me.

“And you may be right,” I told her, “but I just want to make sure.”

“Why?”

“Well, Pinkie, this morning, for some reason, Luna came to get Rainbow Dash telling her to meet her in her room.”

“Oh, Celestia came by our room,” Pinkie said while bouncing down the hall with us, “to get Rarity saying the same thing.”

“I don’t remember a thing, but Fluttershy was gone when you woke me up, Twilight. But why do you think something’s wrong?” AJ questioned as we turned a corner.

“Because,” I sighed patiently and told them, “Celestia hasn’t risen the sun yet. Nor has Luna lowered the moon. Their late. And with everything Emmit just told us…well…”

“I get it,” AJ nodded getting what I was trying to say. Luna’s door was just up ahead after we turned the corner.

“I’m just worried that the changelings have gotten in or something.” But as we got closer to Luna’s door it became apparent that something was going on inside. And when we did reach the door, all we heard from inside was muffled sounds, and two saluting guards standing at the door. Both guards were mares, one pegasus and the other a unicorn. The pegasus’ wings were outstretched and stiff showing clear signs of arousal. The unicorn had an almost blank look on her face while also showing signs of arousal.

“Twilight?” AJ’s voice was filled with caution as we stood before the door, wondering whether or not to open it. “I think tha-“

“I’m going to open it and find out what’s going on and why morning is late,” interrupting her I used my magic to quickly open the door. I was ready for anything. An attack of some sort. What my eyes saw had me standing there in shock. My nose flared out, taking in the scent of sex that came from inside the room. My eyes spotted Emmit in his human form with Rarity slowly riding him with Celestia and Luna suckling on her teats? And is that Flutterbat behind her holding her up giving Celestia and Luna more room below? And Rainbow passed out on a large pillow by the bed with a satisfied dopey look on her face? The whole scene and the scent of sex were making my wings quickly rise. My body was responding quickly to the scents and sounds of passionate sex that my eyes were watching, but my mind couldn’t quite accept.

Right when the door opened, Rarity’s voice came moaning out toward us. “I’m close,” I heard her moan with her head down and watching what my two mentors were doing to her.

AJ took off her hat, for she was never without it, and fanned herself with it. “Tarnation that-“

“Is something I’ve got to try,” Pinkie interrupted, but with a soft voice that was better left in a bedroom with a special somepony. And not standing in the hallway with her two friends and a couple of aroused mare guards.

Fluttershy slash Flutterbat heard us, turned her head toward us, and then motioned for us to come inside with a curl of her hoof.

“Ok,” Pinkie giggled out then bounced into the room, using her tail to shut the door behind her. And before we could respond to that, Rarity’s muffled scream came through the door with, what I thought I heard was, shouts of “yes master.” But surely I heard that wrong.

“I think we found out why morning is late,” AJ’s said with apparent shock in her voice, and maybe some arousal as well. I simply nodded my head because truth be told it got me aroused with thoughts of me taking Rarity’s place ran through my mind before I could stop them.

Happy Thanksgiving to all. Here's the last Extra Chapter before I post the sequel: "Ninetales in Equestria: Fatherhood" I'll be posting the first chapter of the sequel around Christmas time. I never expected this story to be good enough for a sequel or have this many reading it. So, that means a lot to me. Thank you all. I can't say that enough. Hope you all have a pleasant Thanksgiving and the coming Christmas holiday.
