Fruits of love
Chapter 28: 28.- Unknown approaching.
Previous Chapter Next ChapterSunset couldn't contain her moans anymore as her inner most sensitive part was ravaged by the fleshy piston, as her lover increased speed she too adjusted her body to increase penetration, as the final moment approached her body trashed violently, to keep her position Sunset used her legs locking herself with Mac's torso and continued expecting the sweet release of their climax.
The next thing Sunset felt was the hard surface of the floor as her body was unceremoniously pushed out of the bed. "Argh! Ouch ouch ouch! What the- how did I-?". Sunset turned to her bed where a very scared Starlight was covered from head to toe in sheets trying to press her body as close to the walk as possible. "Starlight? Did you just kick me out of my bed?".
"You... Yes! But, but it was because you were trying to...". Starlight finally showed her face, red as a tomato, her hair was mess too. "You were dreaming with him again!".
"Again? I...". Fully awake now Sunset felt the heat in her entire body, specially in her more intimate parts, the ones she dreamed Mac playing with. Her sleeping clothes were a mess indicating she had been busy.
"Sunset, look at your hands".
Sunset did as her friend asked and found the pink glow beating slowly in her hands, the glow almost seemed to breath by itself. "It though I had my new powers under control but it looks like I was wrong".
"I'll say, Twilight told me that she had problems using magic the first few weeks after she ascended, but that was her back in Equestria, you are here and your powers are different". Sunset nodded, her thoughts were the same.
"Still, you have an extra problem in there, first we need to (growl)...?".
"Have breakfast?".
"Breakfast sounds good". Starlight agreed with embarrassment.
REGAL'S RESIDENCE...
The two girls went to the kitchen after cleaning up the room and washing up. There they found Principal Celestia already working in breakfast. "Morning girls, come and seat down, food is ready".
Sunset smiled and hugged the Principal who returned the affection after the initial shock."Thanks Mom".
"No problem sweetie, Starlight, what would you like to drink? We got coffee, orange and Apple juice, milk too".
"Orange juice will do Prince- ah I mean Miss? Principal? Sorry".
"That's ok Starlight, Sunset got the same problem, just call me Miss Celestia". The woman told her as she served her drink.
"Where's Aunt Luna? Has she woke up?". Immediately as the question was out of Sunset's mouth Starlight spat her juice in front of her.
"So-sorry, I just... Sorry".
Celestia passed a napkin to the girl. "Your Aunt is in trouble, that's where she is right now, don't worry though, she's with a friend, anyways, I'll leave you girls for now, need to go to the school to check on something, will you be back for lunch?".
"Sorry Mom, but no, we need to discuss a lot with the rest, we'll be at the barn". Sunset answered.
"I see, well ok, say hi to Granny for me, oh and be careful, ok?".
"Will do Mom, love you". Celestia kissed her cheek and left, all the while Starlight observed with wide eyes.
"Starlight?".
"Yeah?".
"You're starting too much".
"I know, but can you blame me?".
"I guess not, so... I was thinking that we could all gather in Mac's barn and talk without problem about the rebels and how to get better at magic, what do you think?".
"Well, the farm should have enough land to practice, plus the fact that Big Mac's family knows about magic already will solve the problem of privacy, yeah that should work".
"Great! Let me text the girls and inform them, hmm, I wonder if I should tell Aria?".
"You mean the siren? Well I don't see why not, she already prove that she's in your side, plus another person with experience should make things easier for us".
"Ok then, I'll call her too". Soon the girls finished with their food and we're ready for the day.
TIME TURNER'S HOUSE...
Luna woke up as soon as the small day of light hit her on the face, her first reaction was to lift her head and quickly regretted the action as the pain of a hundred beating drums assaulted her at once, she put pressure on her forehead to reduce the pain but just slightly, at least enough to realize her condition, she was naked.
Her instinct was to open her eyes, look for whoever put her on that state and kick the living shit out of it, but her memory came back and she was aware now that she was the one responsible for her one sorry form.
Still something didn't feel right, she had hangover, that was as true as her pain, she was undressed, which didn't surprised her that much, but there was something else, she couldn't quiet put her finger on it but she decided to drop it for now. Going for a second try she managed to seat in the edge of the bed, with the dim light she saw green sheets barely covering the bed as well as furniture slightly familiar to her, this wasn't her room, nor was her house.
She found all her garments a few feet away from the bed, she tried to stand up but her first try end it on her falling sideway from the bed, her butt took the blunt of the impact, her head hurt more though as the pain went to eleven. Resisting the pain Luna crawled the rest of the way picking everything up and releasing a sigh of happiness as she found all her clothes in the spot so she didn't needed to go hunting for the missing parts.
Like a small child who was just learned how to dress Luna put her clothes back as best as she could, she now detected new discomfort between her legs and around her waist but she simply attributed the pIn to her early fall, once her clothes were more or less on place she got up fighting gravity and nausea to the best of her abilities, but she failed to do so and fell a second time. Resisting the vomit rising from within she crawled the rest of the way to the nearest wall and used it as a support to stand up, by this point her eyesight was now completely acclimated to the dim light and now the whole room was visible to her. At either side there were huge bookshelves full to the brim with the obvious object, the bed she was just sleeping on was a standard full size bed with green sheets dangling on the side contrary to where Luna woke up.
For a second she thought she saw movement in the direction where the sheets hung but again she attributed it as an error on her part. Luna saw the exit just within arm's reach and founding nothing to stop her she opened the door and walked through it.
Finding herself in new territory she looked for the first source of water she could find, fortunately for her the kitchen was easy to spot through another door, she found her quarry and quickly and messily drunk from a few water bottles left over a small dinning table. The water was the last thing her stomach could take and in an instance all the vile inside her came rushing to the surface, Luna managed to find the sink in time as her stomach released the alcohol still contained in it, the whole process was another moment of agony for Luna but she saw it through.
After cleaning the mess in the sink and her face she went back to the previous room, her senses were better now but her head was still a wreck, slowly, she started to recognize the place, she had visited the house a couple of times, mostly when she wanted to hide from her sister, the house of her fellow teacher and would-be-pretender Time Turner, the memory of his he found her was more clear now.
"Tim-ouch! Damn! Ok, scream is bad idea, definitely bad, Timmy!". Luna called again, this time without rising her voice. Luna looked around and found another room with a sign hanging from its door. "Do not enter? Turner you... If you don't want people getting where you don't want them then don't use those signs". Luna proved her point by walking inside without a second thought.
Inside the room Luna expected to find many things, what she saw wasn't one of those.
She found old time computers attached to a screen almost as old as the computers themselves, a couple of speakers were also connected but didn't look like much either, the rest was another thing, hanging from the walls there were papers and more papers, what looked like a wacky version of Canterlot city but it said Ponyville. "Weird, Didn't Sunset mentioned that place before?". There was more, notes showing places in Canterlot marked as ' Possible spots for transdimentional jump '. One was marked over the entrance of CHS which for the whole school it was a know secret, but a second one was marked over a place that Luna barely remembered. It was located near the bridge outside town.
"Haaaa!". Luna jumped when something in her pants moved, the second time it did she recognized as her cellphone which was in vibration mode. There were several messages from Celestia and some from Big Mac. "Dammit! I disappeared for a day and everyone think is the end of the world, well? It looks like Turner is not in home, I have no car either, I'm hungry, dirty, hungry again aaaand I'm talking to myself, yep, rock bottom".
Luna took more water and left a note promising Turner to pay any damage she may had caused, she looked for the main door and walked out of the house. Once outside Luna remembered that Turned lived outside of the civilization when she saw nothing but trees and empty fields. "Great! I'm stranded in the very ass of nowhere". Luna took her phone and called her emergency number 2, she had several like those depending in who she didn't want to see in that moment.
"Hey Big guy, today's your lucky day! What? No we aren't leaving and letting Sunset with you, I'm talking about me dammit! I'm want to cash out some of those favors you own me... No, nothing like that, yet, look just come and pick me up from Turner's Holocaust refuge, yeah yeah, I know is in the other side of town and out of your route but he's not here and I don't want to wait until he comes back... Why? Because it's gonna be awkward as hell, come on, I promise I'll distract my sister one of this days so you can have Sunset all to yourself you devil, so what do you say? Yes! Ok but come ASAP ok? Good!". Luna finished the call and started walking the roadside toward the nearest driveway. "Did I just sold my new niece to her boyfriend for a ride? Yep, rock bottom".
Back in the modest house, a naked man started to wake up from the blow he received on the head last night, he was disoriented and in pain he was all tangled in the green sheets of his bed, in his unconscious state he felt from the bed and lost himself in the corner near the wall falling outside view. "Ugh, my brain, by the stars! Did I just dreamed what happened last night?". Finding no trace of his co-worker Turner simply attributed to his accident.
SWEET APPLE ACRESS...
Big Mac walked out of his bathroom ready for the day, he wanted to sleep a bit more but his ' accident ' forced him to take an early shower, as a man and specially as a man in love with a beautiful woman he was used to wet dreams but the one from last night was on a whole new level. So vivid and real like the kick he felt before waking up, once awake and fresh he went to the kitchen but noise from the laundry room called his attention.
"Stupid dreams, making me all weird".
"AJ? That you?".
" Aah! Yo-you idiot! Ya scared the crap out of me!". Applejack jumped as she was about to put something in the washing machine, a couple of things fell from her hands.
"Mighty sorry sis, hm early laundry? Thought you did it the day before yesterday".
"Ju-just a few rags ah need ready for later, that's all". Mac's eye detected a pair of white panties that Applejack tried to hide with her feet and the bottom part of her pijamas, More importantly, his nose detected a similar fragrance to when Sunset is in heat although in a much less degree.
"Ya sure sis? Ya kinda look a bit red in the face".
"Ah'm ok dammit! And besides, why are ya awake at this hour? Ah thought ya wanted to sleep a bit more".
"Eeyup, that was the plan but ah need to do a couple of things before noon, by the way, one of Sunset's friends from Equestria came last night seems she's gonna teach you girls some magic tricks and whatnots".
"That so, well good, ah didn't like to have my back kicked by those scumbags!".
"Eeyup, ok sis ah'll come back later, may have to check how Rich's business is going with Thunderlane".
"Ok brother, what yerself".
"Will do sis, oh by the way, ya may what ta use the softener in the top shelf for yer undies, specially for whites". Mac said while leaving.
"Oh thanks... Wait, Big Mac! This is not what ya think! Ya hear me? Big Mac!".
Big Mac walked out laughing and making sure his sister didn't throw something at him. After arranging to the deliveries of the day Big Mac took boarded his truck and drove toward the processing plant owned by Filthy Rich. Once close he called his friend and asked him to meet him, a few minutes later Thunderlane arrived.
"Yo Big Mac, how is going?".
"Pretty good, all things considered, how about ya, met any good girl yet?". His silver haired friend froze for a second and a nervous smile appeared in him.
"Maybe, umh so... What can I do for my best friend". Mac felt something weird was going on, specially his use of the word ' best friend '.
"Hm, for now, ah was just wondering about the incident in the warehouses".
"Oh that? Sssssh that's the topic of the month if not of the year, whole place was wrecked, turned into a warzone, there was also... Wait... should I tell you what happened? Won't that get us in trouble with the boss of the police?".
"That's why ah asked ya in private, besides, ya know that what we talk here won't go jumpin anywhere else, if ya don't feel like tellin ah'll never force ya don worry Lane".
"I know I know, it just that... well after your family didn't renew the contract with Rich and now that his warehouses were attacked he's all stressed and looking for traitors everywhere, he doesn't trust the police to do a good job and he fired the entire security team, he just waiting for the suspects to awake to let them have it".
"Suspects? Ya know who they are? Again, if ya don wanna talk about it we can talk somethin else".
"No, that's ok". Again Mac detected nervousness in his friend and it didn't come from the topic at hand. "There were two guys, badly injured, got attacked by some animal, as it turn out they were hired by the boss himself, he didn't wanted to pay a lot so he hired those two when they showed up one day, he reduced the pay even more when he let them move in and use the guard's barrack but it looks like they had more people living in, the police and I found women's objects in the barracks as well as weird stuff".
"Stuff? Weird stuff?". Mac asked with a bad feeling.
"Yeah, a couple of weird gems, really expensive looking gems, a book written in weird symbols and a full size mirror".
"That last one doesn't sound so weird, women like to see themselves".
"Yeah, but this mirror had marking as the book, the police thinks is part of some underground cult of something".
"Pretty weird, by any chance ya know who's directing the investigation?".
"Of course, Police's Captain Lime Grass". The name struck Mac instantly, he was an old friend of his parents as well as one of the men who investigated the accident that cost them their lives, that and also Mac tutored his daughter when she was falling behind in Math, a girl that could make even someone as patient as Mac lose it temper with her loud rock music and quick tongue that could give Pinkie a run for her money.
"Wow, can't believe that all this happened to him".
"Tell me about it, now he has the whole personnel, including me working extra hours just to make amends, pretty bad time".
"Eeyup, now then, why are ya so nervous?". Thunderlane tensed up the moment But Mac asked him that.
"Er- you see... I have been... We have been... Me and her-".
"Lane! Would ya talk already?".
"Ok ok, sorry, ok here goes nothing, I... You see-".
"Lane!".
"I been going out with your cousin!".
"Wut?".
"Jona, Jonagold, se have been dating, I mean we went out just a couple of times so far but-".
"Mah cousin? And you?".
"Ye-yeah, you're not mad, right?".
"Well, nope but... She's been here for barely a week so, it's kinda... fast".
"I know, believe, but well the first time she brought the delivery with Braeburn it was like... you know, like you and Sunset".
"Yer wrong there, a knew Sunset from years now but we just started datin about a year now".
"Uh? But you guys were pretty close even before she started high school, I mean I know she kinda did a 180 when she humiliated your sister in that Queen contest for the middle school section and you-".
"What?".
"Uh? Did I- did I say something wrong?".
"No, sorry it's just... what ya just said".
"You mean about you been close?".
"Nope-ah mean yes but the part about Sunset humiliating may sister, did that... did that happened before they started High School together?".
"Hmm yeah, it was during our last year remember?". It was pretty awful Specially for your sister and friends but I'm glad she turned for the better later up, hey Mac are you ok?".
Big Mac felt to the ground in his knees as his head exploded inside, his memories started reshuffling like a deck of cards which was forced open with new ones adhered.
The memories were fussy and mixed but he knew they were there, trying to get to the surface. "Ah- ah'm ok, ah'm ok now, argh! Its... It's hard to remember, how come, how come ya do?".
"You mean you don't".
"Nope, not entirely, nor those the rest, they just remember a few things, even Celestia and Luna seem to have forgotten".
"Seriously? Well I don't know, maybe-ah no that's stupid".
"What! What do ya know!". Mac for up and grabbed Thunderlane from the neck of his shirt.
"Ok ok, calm down, it may sound stupid but, well Sunset did some kind of magic trick during the contest, first it was some weird poem or something that left everyone dazzled, then there were two Sunset Shimmers over the podium, it was pretty cool and kind of scary, then they fought for a bit before one of them pulled this weird rock from her pocket and changed again something weird, then a intense light came out of the rock, and the other Sunset was gone, it all happened to fast".
"How come ta remember but we don?".
"Hm don't know exactly but maybe because I didn't saw the light form the weird rock, everyone apparently did, wow that's some magic trick".
"do ya remember what ah was doin at that moment?"
"Hmm I don't know exactly, you were around the school most of the time while I stood in the auditorium but there was a moment when you came out and talked to Sunset in a hurry, I was far so I don't know what you two where talking about but before you left again you hugged her, that was before the prank she did over Applejack of course".
Mac's mind tried to recall the events but he couldn't at the moment and the pain was beginning to grow in intensity. "Dammit! Dammit all !".
"Big Mac?".
"Sorry Lane ah'm ok now, for real, about ya and mah cousin, just treat her right and ah won't kill ya, we cool?"
"Su-sure, haha kill me, that's a good one, good joke, right?".
Mac just patted his back with a chilling smile telling him that it wasn't a joke. After thank him Mac drive again this time to clear his mind, if he had doubt before about the existence of the other Sunset they were gone now, somehow the human Sunset had made contact with pony Sunset and was involve in how the six girls broke up, what Thunderlane described sounded like magic stuff, now he really needed to ask Sunset what she could remember about that time.
As Big Mac drove around deep In thought he failed to see the attractive redheaded woman walking around the street, her skin perfectly tanned and her hips swinging like a perfect pendulum from left to right somehow contained inside the small green dress she was wearing. Her blue eyes scanning everything they saw while her siren senses could feel all varieties of emotions, inside her mouth she was already imagining how those emotions would taste, more that once Emerald Breeze wished to throw all away and look for his little kid/meal, find him and extract that delicious pain he housed in his heart, all the while she would inflict physical and more emotional pain.
She couldn't avoid smiling while she walked, the human world was far more entertaining for her that Equestria could ever be, in the magic land happiness reins supreme, only the few territories outside the four princesses reach was were one could find freedom to cause chaos and suffering, and that land was stretching thin thanks to the new Changelings, Emerald was obsessed with cause pain but even she knew that doing it with the possibility of been captured by Celestia and been thrown inside Tartarus was a big no-no.
The human world in the other hoof or hand, had her own troubles, while she could survive using her magic to enchant and live easy for a while the small amount of magic in this world meant that sooner or later her magic would run out making more difficult to get her fun, plus there was always the possibility of been arrested by human authorities if she wasn't careful, she was surprised that when Adagio and her two silly friends were defeated all they got was a slap in the ass and the lost of her gems, that last thought caused her to touch her own gem.
Then came Abigail, or as she like to call her Abey, the little unicorn was a complete intrigue for Emerald Breeze, she was obviously not a fan of Celestia and her collective, it was easy to assume that she was another power hungry pony looking to overthrow the status quo over its head and rule with an iron fist, but as much as she masked her emotions Emerald could still detect the hatred for Celestia and only her, not her status, not her philosophy, not her friends or even her sister, only Celestia, the excuse of this whole Rebellion thing was just her way to get to the white Princess, there was no real goal of changing anything for evil or to gain more power, there was just Abey's desire to brake Celestia up, seen her suffer, something that Emerald was very intrigued to see.
In the meantime Emerald would use this charade and enjoy it as much as possible, for war was the best way to create pain and fear, and why not, a bit of lust was not bad either, she could feel it from every single male and a few females that watched her walking through the city, her first order of business was to find a place to live, from there she would search for the two fools that got trapped here, she also needed to take back or destroy the things Adagio left behind, finally and more importantly she had to find one or two humans that had come into contact with equestrian magic for little Abey's experiment. She was kind enough to provide a list of possible targets, that info was pretty impressive, she didn't have the slightest idea of how Abigail came to obtain such a thing but then again she had done the imposible Possible so far.
Checking the names in her memory, Emerald remembered that the main target didn't live in the city itself, she lived far from it but still within reach, her name was Gloriosa Daisy, the owner of Camp Evergreen, her second target did live in the city, she was currently working in the movie theater, her name was Juniper Montage. There was a third target named Vignette Valencia but she was to be captured only if the other two were too hard to get.
As a bonus should one or the whole Rainbooms were to present an obstacle Abigail approved of their disposal, just as long as her main mission wasn't in risk because of it. This was a tricky one for Emerald, it was obvious that Abigail didn't care what she did to them as long as she completed the main objective even knowing that they could get in the way like before and yet she wouldn't deal with them directly, rather letting them out of the loop if possible, where they part of Abey's plans somehow or were they really that dangerous?
Finally after so much walking Emerald arrived to her destination, an old hotel. It was low key but close enough for her purpose, she walked in and found the lobby almost empty, only a couple of nature age and the receptionist. Emerald felt the eyes of the male glued to her immediately, she just smiled to the couple and moved to talk to the girl behind the counter.
"How can Trixie help you today? Ma'am?".
"Trixie?".
"That! Would be me!". The girl pointed to herself like she was a star or something.
"Hm, I would like a room, a good one with sight to the city, and I would like to rent it for a week, maybe more if need it, do you have something like that? Trixie?". Emerald said the name of the girl with a sensual voice as she reached and grabbed hold of a lock of the girl's white hair. The reaction was as expected, the girl went rigid and her face turned Scarlet from the insinuation.
"I-the Trixie and powerful, will look, hold on". As the girl hit the keyboard in search for a room Emerald turned to the only male in the room finding him stealing glances at her ass, she caught him and he pretended to look away but she offered a smile and leaned further over the counter to make her back more prominent finishing the move with a wink, another poor fool felt to her charms and she could feel his eyes even more invested in her. "He-here! Room 310, it got the best view and is one of our best suited, if Trixie say so herself".
"Wonderful! I hope this can cover the fee". Emerald placed almost a thousand dollars in the counter, her bits turned into money when she crossed the portal.
"It is! Way more actually, you just need $480 for the week Ma'am". Said Trixie with wide eyes.
"Ah, my mistake, I always forget to check prices, thanks for your honesty darling, here, a little tip for been such a love". Emerald took the extra money back except for $100 which she left for Trixie.
"Tha-thank you but it's too much! I can't accept it".
Emerald pushed the bill closer to Trixie's hand gingerly touching her hand, Trixie was blushing non stop by the level of awkwardness at the moment. "Keep it, you can earn more if you help me with... A few things here and there, maybe even keeping me company since I'm new here". Emerald ran the tip of her tongue over her lower lip causing Trixie to have a nosebleed in that moment.
"Imsorryimsorry!" Trixie yelled while holding her nosebleed with a hand trying desperately to find a towel or s napkin that could contain her embarrassment.
"That's ok girly, I'll take my key and be on my way". Emerald did as told and not sooner she was installed in her temporary quarters. Checking everything up she had to admit that the little girl downstairs was right about the room, it was classy and stylish, the room had a small jacuzzi and a big bed, the view of the city was pretty good too allowing Emerald to see far and wide. Deciding that it was to early to start moving again she went to take a nice bath, later she would nap for a bit to recover from the long walk and after that she would buy some clothes to not look like a poor cartoon character always using the same outfit, only after she was completely settled would she move on with her mission. "This is gonna be so much fun".
TWILIGHT SPARKLE'S HOUSE...
Twilight walked out of the shower fresh and clean, but the embarrassment she felt when she woke up to find her intimate parts aroused and wet was still with her and no amount of water or soap would washed away, at least she was lucky that her talking pet Spike was taken by her brother last night so that the two could do an early jogging, while the loyal canine was not one to intrude in her privacy, she still would feel awkward if he were to smell her in such state.
Her dream last night was a shock, while it wasn't the first time she dreamed of her boyfriend Timber Spruce, it was the first time she had a complete sexual one of him, she felt both elated and scared, elated because she had been pretty nervous about taking her relationship with Timber to the next level and scared because what implied.
"I really need to talk to Sunset before I see him again, or dream of him". Her monologue was interrupted when her phone rang. "Hello?".
"Hey Twilight, how it's going? Miss me?". The voice of the boy in question asked through the line.
"Tim...her? He-hello? How you doing?".
"Just wanted to heard your voice, see how you were doing aaaand give you a nice surprise".
"A surprise? For me?".
"Yep, I'm planning to give it to you today?".
"Today? You're coming?". Twilight asked happily but her memory of what happened not an hour ago and her mind crashed. "You're coming today!".
"Yeah, my sister came to talk to Applejack's family and see if we can get some business with them, and knowing that we haven't seen in a while tod me to come, nice right?".
"...".
"Twilight? You there? Twi-?".
"SorryIminahurryandIhavetogoseeyaloveyou!". Twilight cut the call and started hyperventilating. "What am I going to do!? If I see him, if I see him I could end up...Sunset! Need to talk to Sunset!". Twilight left her room and then her house in a hurry only to come back red faced when she remembered that she was just wearing a towel.
CANTERLOT CITY'S OLD MARKET...
"Thanks Big Mac for everything say hi to Granny for me and ask her when can we play bingo avian".
"Will do Ms Waters, now don go pickin heavy stuff again without help, ok?".
"Won't do my boy, thank you". Mac left the old lady in her little establishment as he went back to his truck, walking through the market to see the old Apple Stand was a good way to think but now it was time to get in action, Mac put out his phone and dialed a number he wasn't too kin in calling.
Mac waited for his former pupil to answer. "Yo Teach! Long time without hear from you, why? Don't like me anymore?!". Mac still managed to listen to the girl in the other side despite the loud rock and roll music she was playing.
"Heya Miss Lem-".
"No no no! Damn it! You call me after all this time and you call me 'Miss' ? That ain't right Teach!".
"Uh, hm sorry Mi- Ah mean Lemon zest, sorry, been busy with a lotta stuff and... some other things, didn't meant to forget about ya".
Mac heard the girl with at loud. "Curse your honesty, anyways, let me turn this down". Mac heard some noise and as she said the music lowered enough not have a modest conversation without stressing hearing. "Sooo, what's up? Wait! Don't tell me that my old man got you to tutor me again just because I failed the last test! Argrrrh! The girls are gonna kill me if I miss the trip for been grounded!".
" Nope, Mr Grass didn call me, this is for somethin else actually, but how come yer havin trouble, ah thought ya everythin ah could last time".
"I know and that's why I got into Crystal Prep, that is by the way, but that's not the problem, is not that I'm bad at it, it just that, well? Is soooo boring! I can't focus when I'm with Cinch and she won't let me use my headphones! Totally unfair!".
"Lemon, that's just... Sorry but ah can't help ya with that, anyway, ah was wonderin if ya could help me with somethin very important".
"A favor you say? And just how important is this favor? Like, it could get me grounded important? Get me expelled important? Or get me arrested important?".
"Eh, well, it may cause all three".
"Hmmm, have to think about it, I'm willing to hear you out, wanna come to my house? Dad will be thrilled to see you".
"Actually, it will be better if we talk in private, there's also more people involved in this, to talk freely, how about mah house, there will be food and drinks".
"Really? Say no more then, I'm in, when then?".
"How about today then, can ya make it?".
"Heck no! Got no car yet, can you pick me up?". Big Mac thought about it. According with Sunset's text the meeting would be at midday, right now it was getting close to 9, three hours away but if was good time to talk with Lemon about his father and what happened in the warehouses. "Alright, ah'll pick ya up right now, then we can talk while the rest arrives, also this need to stay only between us".
"Can't tell my Dad uh? This is starting to sound more intriguing, could it be that you want to rock my world Teach?".
" Nope Lemon, ah got a girlfriend".
"I don't mind, a threesome sounds bunkers".
"Lemon!".
"Kidding, just kidding, geez! I'll be ready, still remember my address right?".
"Eeyup".
"Good, see ya soon Teach!". Lemon Zest ended the call and only then Mac let a sigh as heavy as the bull man he fought the day before yesterday out. Talking with the Prep girl was as difficult as talking with Pinkie and Rainbow at the same time, she liked heavy rock and always messed with him, if it wasn't because he had experience dealing with all sort of women he would had maybe put her in his lap and spanked her several times. "And ah just put that image in mah mind, dammit!". Mac put his truck in motion and left the Market making way to the center of the city.
CANTERLOT'S MALL...
Starlight Glimmer walked through the hallways of the mall, stopping in every store that called her attention, it was a brand new sight for her but still part of her mind was busy thinking about her friend Trixie and how she would perform in the incoming event.
If she was fast enough and everything went smoothly she probably could catch up and be back before the conference but she couldn't deny that the chance to explore the human world thrilled her, last time she came it was just an impulse product of boredom and loneliness but now that she new that she was coming she prepared for the occasion bringing bits and not making a fool if herself by walking in all four.
The shops called her intrigue full force but she tried to make sure not to enclose herself too much in a single spot, yet little by little she started to collect curiosities from many stores and now she was carrying two full bags of random objects.
"Maybe I bought too much, hm I hope Sunset if almost finished". Her thoughts were interrupted when the godly smell of fried meat found way to her nostrils stopping brain functions in the girl. Like a hound hunting pray her head followed the trail of fried grease to a food joint called Don Pan's famous burgers. A burger place, a place that Princess Twilight told her to avoid at all cost for her own good, but why? What was about this unknown type of food that she would warn her about.
She got closer to the place and looked to the clients expressions, they had different looks of satisfaction in their faces but they all looked happy. The smell became even stronger as Starlight got closer, she could see the humans enjoying different dishes of unknown flavor, her mouth started salivating, a person in particular called her attention, a young woman took her burger between her hands and took a full size bite, the piece of meat was thick, tender and juicy the girl's cheeks turned pink from such pleasure and her smile meant pure ecstasy.
Starlight decided in that moment that she would have one, she didn't want to disregard Twilight's advice but she need to check things by herself. With her mind made up she walked toward the nearest table.
"Ok, here I co-".
"Starlight! There you are, I been looking for you all around!".
"Oh hey Sunset, sorry I just wanted to walk around".
"That's ok, now come on, we have to go".
"But I was-".
"Twilight called me and she sounded stressed and in a panic, she didn't explained why but we can't risk the possibility of Adagio coming back so soon".
"But I-I understand, let's go".
"Sunset nodded and and walked behind her, just turning around to look one last time to the delicious meal the girl was having. "Someday".
"Did you said something?".
"I said lead the way".
"Oh ok".
LEMON ZEST'S HOUSE...
Mac parked in front of the house owned by the chief of police, as soon as his truck stopped completely the door was opened and out walked Lemon Zest, the girl was wearing short biker pants with the legs cut off, under it she was wearing black spats, her upper body had a black shirt with the name of some rock band printed in the chest area, the shirt was short too leaving her abdomen and lower back out in view, she had biker boots with knee socks in her feet and finally her trademark headphones. As expected Lemon was more developed from the last time he saw her, she looked as athletic as Rainbow but her body had bigger proportions in chest and back, made more obvious with her get up.
After locking the door she jumped in the truck. "Sup! Teach, looking good there". The girl did a high five motion that Mac barely managed to copy.
"Uh thanks, but its just mah normal clothes".
"Wasn't talking about the clothes silly, anyway let's go before Dad gets back from work".
Mac put his truck back in gear and drove toward his home, it took a little while before he spoke meanwhile she kept looking at him. "So, girlfriend uh?".
"Eeyup, for about a year now, his about yerself".
The girl didn't looked bothered by the question at all. " Me? Couple of guys, but it didn't work too well, as soon as they heard that my old man is a cop they run for the hills faster that a dog chasing it own tail".
"Sorry to heard that".
"Don't worry, it didn't bother me at all, right now I don't have time for boys, me and my friends have enough fun by ourselves".
"That's good, sounds like mah sister and her friends, girls have a pretty tight group".
"Oh yeah, I remember that you have a sister,she from CHS right?".
"Eeyup, she participated in the last Friendship games, ya probably met her already".
"I did? Wait, wait wait wait, southern accent, blondy, green eyes, freckles and big biceps?".
"Eeyup! Name is Applejack, she's... or was part of the Rainbooms".
"No way! Seriously? Man I thought she looked familiar but then I though, nah, it can't be".
"Got another sister too, she's 12 already".
"Seriously? That explains a lot actually". Mac drives for several minutes in silent before he got a call, he wasn't surprised when he saw the number, it was more rare that she took too long to call. "Morning Miss Luna, how is goin' ? Really? Yer goin' on vacation? If that's so then can ah have Sunset for mahself? Ah'm not lettin any of mah cider to ya Miss. Ma'am, he lives at the other side of town and ah'm on mah way home right now! Why not? Fiiine! But ah'm takin that promise for real ya hear? Ah'll pick ya up in a bit, just walk to the road and meet me there".
Lemon heard the whole conversation while pretending she didn't, her headphones could be turned on and off by a quick press of a bottom. She saw her former tutor turn the vehicle out off route toward their new destination where they would meet the woman he talked with. " Luna?".
"Eeyup".
"As in Luna Regal?".
"Eeyup".
"Your former VP?".
"Tha same".
"...".
"Are you boning her?".
"Eenope!".
"No? Uh, well too bad, she's hot".
"Can we change the subject?".
"So who is it? Your girlfriend?".
"Ya met her already".
"Really? Hm no way! Is one of your sister's friends?"
"Seriously, can we talk about somethin' else".
"Is one of the Rainbooms is in it? Is it the soft spoken one with pink hair and big boobs?". Mac kept driving with his face set as stone. "No? How about the fashionista with bigger boobs?". Mac didn't flinch whatsoever. "Oh maybe is our former resident egghead isn't? What was her name again? Purple Sparks?".
After getting no reaction Lemon looked like she was concentrating in her next words, Mac in the other side was wishing he was somewhere else. "Is the redhead right? The leader!". Something in Mac's most had moved for Lemon's smile turned into a full evil grin. "It her! Damn Teach! Not bad, she had a nice rack last time, she must be pretty hot by now, not bad at all".
"Ok, ya got me, eeyup, Sunset Shimmer Is her name and please don't make that kind of comments in front of her... or mah sister".
"Oh come ooon! What's a little teasing worth when you're asking for my help, besides is not like she's shy right?".
"Well nope but still, we have enough teasing from the rest and Miss Luna, Don fell like gettin more fire to the pit".
"Ok, I'll only do it with you alone". Mac grimaced. " By the way? You know... about magic do you?".
"Ah do, so does a few lot more of people, which reminds me to thank ya, you and yer friends kept quiet to prevent Miss Sparkle and the rest from gettin into trouble, ah'm really thankful Lemon".
Lemon turned around to prevent him from seen her blush, when it disappeared form her face she turned and punched him in the arm. "No problem Teach, just another favor to cash out later". The duo continued the rest of the way in silence until they reached the other side of town, by then Luna was there waiting.
She walked around and opened the door growling about feeling weird and been about to die, her bad mood died instantly when she found the green headed girl inside in which was supposed to be her place. "What the- Big Mac? Who is this?".
"Someone who smells better that you it seems, you must be Luna right?".
Luna ignored the girl and asked again. "Big Mac? Who. Is. This?".
"Long story ma'am, one ah rather tell on the way home, unless ya want me to drop ya with yer sister so she can take of ya".
"Ugh! Don't even joke about it". She boarded the truck as Lemon scooted away. "And for your sake and this... kid you better not been playing with my niece".
"Ya seriously in a bad mood, uh? Most have been a heck of a party".
"Again, not in the mood for jokes, just drive and explain".
"Psst psst, hey Teach, this gal sure is cranky".
"I heard that you little-".
"Miss Luna, please just call down or yer gonna-". Mac warning came too late as Luna threw up, fortunately she managed to turn her head and most of the vile went outside
But some got over her clothes and the door of the passenger.
"Grest! Now its smell even worse".
"Not another word Lemon or her gonna help me clean the truck". For once the girl decided to obey with no Talk back. " I hope Sunset is havin a better day than mine".
CANTERLOT CITY'S CENTRAL PARK, ...
"Twilight! Twilight! We-we are here now! Wheres Adagio! Are you ok?". Asked Sunset worried looking left and right but finding only a normal everyday scene in front of her.
"A-Adagio? Is she here? Where?". Twilight responded in alarm when Adagio's name came up.
"Uh?".
"Uh?".
After both girls explained that there wasn't an enemy involved in the emergency then the three girls calmed down.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to worry you like this, but it is a real emergency, a very personal one". Twilight looked at Starlight Who stared at her like if she were a ghost. "Also I thought you would come alone, I mean is nothing against your friend is just...".
"Say no more, I'll have a look around while you two talk things over". Starlight took off leaving the friends behind.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-".
"That's ok, if anything is my fault, I'll talk to her later".
"She was looking at me pretty intense".
"Oh! That's because she's close friends with princess Twilight".
"You mean my pony look a like?".
"Yep, now what's this emergency you have".
"Well, I got a call from Timber this same morning and he is coming soon with his sister to talk to the Apples about doing business together".
"Really? That's awesome, Mac and Applejack are gonna be happy to heard that! Plus you'll get to see your boyfriend".
"Yes but... it's not that I don't want to see him but it's too soon, specially after... after my dream last night!". Twilight covered her face in shame as the memories resurfaced.
"Dream? Did you have a nightmare? Don't tell me we got Tantanites again?".
"No no, it wasn't a nightmare, it was the opposite, it was... it was...". Her red face was more that enough clue for Sunset to figure out the rest, her expression changing with understatement. "I never dreamed like that before, it was... intense, so real like, like you-".
"Were really doing it with him?". Sunset finished her dialogue much to her surprise.
"How did you-wait! You didn't read my mind did you?". Sunset offer her a weak smile and cheeks as pink as hers.
"I kinda had a very similar dream with Big Mac, it felt as you described, almost as real as been awake".
"Oh! Well, now you see why I can't see Timber so soon after having a dream like that?".
"I see but its not like you're gonna do a move on him right there, I mean it was a dream and just that, right?". Twilight shifted in her seat and didn't offer a replay which combined with her face getting more red told Sunset a different story. " Right Twilight?".
"I-I don't know, I mean I admit that it is still scary to me but after last night, the sensation, the elation I felt, it makes me want to try it, that's why I wanted to ask you, you felt the real thing already, can you... can you tell me how it felt".
"I...".
"It-its not necessary if you feel awkward you know".
"No, it's ok," Sunset turned her memory back to the day she and Mac had their first time together. "A lot of things were happening when Mac and I had our first time but even over that there was attraction already there, keep in mind that it was my first estrous, so I was a bit... disoriented"
"I'll say" Twilight said remembering how her friend acted during those days, earning a soft punch in her shoulder from said girl.
"Smartass, anyway, jumping to the main plot we were nervous to no end but never to the point where we didn't know what we were doing and what the consequences would be, the main act itself was nerve-wracking too but behind everything there was this... I don't know, like when you know you are doing the right thing, like... like it was meant to be".
"What about... you know the actual sex part".
"Hahaha, by Celestia it was wonderful, sure there was a bit of pain at the beginning but it went away like a breeze, as soon as that was gone then it escalated from there to mind-blowing non-stop finger-curling lip-biting pleasure, that's as far as I can come close to described, oh and everytime after that it gets better!".
"Wow, really?".
"Come on Twilight, I expected more emotion from the tale of my first experience". Sunset deadpanned.
"Sorry is just, well I guess I would know unless it happen to me, still thanks Sunset for sharing all this with me, I'm really thankful". The two girls shared a big hug.
"In any case, I don't think you're gonna have it as bad as me, you're humans with equestrian power so it makes sense that you are affected in some capacity but I been fully equestrian got the full blown effect".
"Ahem". Starlight Glimmer interrupted causing Twilight to completely shut down. Sunset tried to make signals indicated that it wasn't the time to intrude but Starlight either didn't understood or didn't care as she sat between both girls making Twilight even more irked. "To my own experience, the estrous is not as much of a deal back in Equestria as it is here, my first time getting it was a nightmare, more so because during that time I was focused in turning an entire town into my personal followers, I could had any of my "stallions friends" satisfy my urges but making connections with anypony was a big no-no for me in that state of my plan".
"What did you do then?". Asked Sunset suddenly curious to hear the wild tale, even Twilight was intrigued.
"Luckily for me some of the mares were passing for the same trouble at the time and we're talking loud enough like you two to heard of a solution". The realization hit both girls like brick to the head and they looked all around only to found no one in a 50 letter radius.
"You ass! Hahaha you got us good there!". Sunset laughed along Twilight.
"A bit mean but funny I won't deny it".
"Sorry, didn't meant to heard you but it's true your conversation was carried by the wind and I got some of it, you also looked tense so I thought that a laugh would help you relax".
"I do feel better so thanks, but you know, having two equestrians here gives me a good chance to do some experiments I had in mind since I discovered magic and all that, I suppose you wouldn't mind been my guinea ponies do you?". Both Sunset and Starlight were shock into silence by Twilight's proposal, the fact that her face was set in her more enthusiastic expression did the comment even more believable.
"You...! You're joking!". Her mad grin broke into a full hardy laugh that got the other two to laugh as well and soon the three were now enjoying the moment in the same level, as friends.
"But honestly Twilight, if you feel like you need to take the step just do it responsibly and talk with Timber properly about how you feel". Sunset told her and Starlight nodded. " And if that doesn't work you have you magic to paralyse him and get your way with him". The girls laughed again.
CHEERILEE'S APARTMENT...
"So you don't want to go?". Asked Cheerilee to her roommate Aria who was at the moment stretching after some short cardio exercises, since the previous day Aria seemed immersed in getting fit doing any number of repetitions of various types, push ups, jumps, side steps and crouches. Funny thing for Cheerilee was that as every time she would cross sights with her she would turn red and violently turn her head, she thought that it was due to her embarrassment for been seen doing exercise while in true the reasons were more intimate.
"I told you already! I don't, I did help them and I think they don't bother me as much now but from there to be part of their little club there's just too much distance yet".
Cheerilee moved her mouth to speak but decided not to and instead continued looking at the news paper she had been holding for a while." What?".
"Hm?".
"What did you wanted to say?".
" Nothing, nothing at all".
"No, you did wanted to say something I know that expression of yours!".
"Haha! Well, is just that you said 'yet' which means that there's hope that it will happen someday". Cheerilee said with smugness in her tone.
"I-I, whatever! I don't care for those girls just as I know they don't care for me, what happened before was just convenience, we both hated Adagio so we had to get rid of her, that's all".
"Do you really think so? They took Sunset in and even Twilight, what makes you think the same thing wouldn't happen to you?". Asked Cheerilee still looking at the news paper.
"I don't know... and I don't care and what got you so hook up in that piece of paper anyway". Asked Aria getting more irritated to the point where she stopped her new routine all together.
"I'm looking at the job section".
"What? Why? Don't tell me the Celestia in this world is as stingy as the one in Equestria".
"I got I raise a month ago actually, but the problem is that we expend more money that the one I make". Cheerilee out a bit of emphasis in the 'I' making Aria pout.
"Hey I got you money!".
"Yes you did, like, almost a month ago when we started living together, money that we finished already. I got savings of course but I don't want to touch those unless necessary, so that's why I'm looking for a job for you".
"Fo-for me?!".
"Of course, my job takes too much of me already, there's no way I can take a second shift even if it's just part-time".
"Wait a minute, if it is more money what you need then I can get it in some other way besides a job I'm sure that-".
"Aria! Sorry for rising my voice but unless you get money by a proper job I don't feel like taking it".
"Why not? That's how I use to do it with Ada...gio". Aria almost chocked when the name came to her mouth.
"That's why I won't take it, Aria you are willingly or unwillingly stepping away from the shadow of that woman or pony or whatever she is, you are becoming a person on her own right". Cheerilee placed the paper over the table and walked in front of Aria while holding a towel Aria prepared preciously to dry her sweat which Cheerilee did for her. "I'm thankful for what you did when we met and I'm more so for this last time too, so the best thing I can do as a thank you is looking out for you and up you become a better person, not one that only I can see but that everyone can see". Cheerilee left the words sink in her friend. "So, would you let me? This isn't forced, if you don't feel like it-".
"Let me think!". Aria spoke fast and loud. "Let me think things first, ok?".
"Of course Aria, take your time". Cheerilee dried Aria's face while her cheeks burned. Aria turned around and left the apartment in a hurry running while her heart hammered inside her chest and almost exploding out of it, combined with the memories of her previous dream Aria couldn't hold it any longer, she was stupidly falling for her roommate, a human woman she saved not too long ago just by coincidence and that now was moving her heart like a mad driver.
Tired she stopped in a small alley where she took huge chunks of air to restore her nerves. "Damn, stupid feeli-!".
"Hello? Aria, Aria are you here?". Instinct kicked in as the voice behind her make her jump and let loose a blast of magic that almost hit her supposed attacker.
"What the- you idiot! I almost got you in face!".
"I-I'm sorry but Miss Cheerilee told me you ran this way but I couldn't find you but then I heard you and I-".
"Enough! You're lucky I missed".
"I... I thought you didn't have any magic left".
Aria inspected her hand and saw them glowing with both a pink and her mint colored magic. "I thought so too but it looks like Shimmer got me a boost somehow".
"A... boost? Something pink and...?". For the first time Aria looked at the Fluttershy girl, her face was pretty and so full of innocence not found in any of her friends but right now there was something else there, her cheeks turned blood red and her brow shot so high Aria thought they would leave her face. " What are doing here anyway?".
The girl shifted her weight awkwardly. " Do you remember what I said last time we saw each other?". Aria did memory backtracking until it clicked.
"Were you serious about me teaching you magic?".
"Yes! I don't want to feel useless again, I don't want to see my dear friends been hurt while I coward behind a corner!". Fluttershy said with passion and determination rarely seen in the girl.
" In my opinion you didn't do so bad but you could definitely get better, but... Don't you want to learn from your friends rather than me?".
"I love them of course but I don't have what they have, only you can show me how Aria, besides even if you don't believe me I... I see you as friend too". Aria watched the girl with amusement and scrutiny but didn't found any sign of lie or doubt in her, still, Aria didn't want to get involved, specially if that meant getting close to Sunset Shimmer Who somehow was responsible for her personal problem, but then Cheerilee's words came to her mind 'Not one that only I can see but that everyone can see'.
"Tch! Fine, I'll train you as much as I know but you better listen well and learn fast".
"You will thank you thank you thank you!". Fluttershy jumped at her and hugged her hard enough that she could feel her good size boobs, apparently she too felt something from Aria because she let her go and backed away as fast as she hugged her first, her face was scarlet now too.
"A-anyway, what's this I heard about a meeting".
"Oh yes, we are having it Sweet Apple Acres in less than an hour, a friend of Sunset came from Equestria to discuss some important details about what we may face, everyone is going, are you going too, if so we can use my father's car and go together!". The shy girl recovered her mood.
"I suppose I can spare a few hours of my life if it means I'll get first hand info into those bastards, fine then, I'm in".
"I'm glad, don't worry Aria, I'll listen to everything you say". Aria smirked at the comment but kept it hidden, she would make her remember those words.
"Good girl".
FARSIDE HOTEL...
A knock in the door indicated Emerald that her food had arrived, she was now dressed with a simple yet comfortable bathrobe and nothing more, with a smile in face she opened a gap to let her cleavage exposed before finally open the door.
"Here's the food you or... that you... that you ordered, hehe sorry". Said the girl with pink cheeks.
"Not to worry pretty one". Emerald took the order of seafood from Trixie's hands letting her hand linger over hers a bit so that the girl could feel her skin fresh and soft. Emerald walked to her bed swinging her hips sensually to continue teasing the girl, once the food was placed she sat on the bed and patted the spot next to her so that Trixie would understand that she wanted her closer.
After some trepidation Trixie did move in and sat next to the siren, Emerald could tell that the girl was already smitten by her and now it was the right time to extract important information from her. "Now Trixie, as I told you I'm new here so I need to know what's going on in the city so that I can keep myself out of trouble, wouldn't you tell me?".
"But of course! Trixie knows what happens all around".
"Good then, tell me". Emerald held a hand in Trixie's neck forcing the girl to look directly into her eyes as they started glowing, in that moment something in the girl seemed to recognize that she was in danger and Trixie did one and only attend in brake free but the siren's grip was just too strong. "Argh, not... again!".
Little by little her will vanished and her trashing diminished as well, her eyes became glassy and her body relaxed in the redhead's hand, she let go and Trixie slouched as she felt completely in the trance. "Now, my cute little mouse, tell me everything you know".
"Yes... master". Responded Trixie with no emotions behind her voice.
SWEET APPLE ACRESS...
"About time ya showed up and why-uh?". Applejack was cut short when out of her brother's truck jumped not only him but two more persons, the first one, Luna ran with a hand covering her mouth in route to the house, as she passed next to Applejack she left a trail of barf, alcohol and something else that caused her to instinctively press her legs together, the feeling was soon forgotten as she saw the second person, a girl dressed very very modestly, as in everyone look at my body kind of modestly, it took a bit to recognize the girl but Applejack did so.
"Ew! That's some serious bioweapon she had there". Lemon expressed while breathing sweet fresh air.
"Please, last thing ah need is a reminder, hey sis! How are the preparations goin?". Said Big Mac as he spotted his sister frozen in the path.
"Uh? Oh hm almost done, Bloom and See are putting the last touches".
"Hey there Blondie". Lemon said to Applejack who looked to the girl with confusion.
"Uh? Hi, hey Big Mac can ah talk to you in private? Ya know, farm stuff".
"Farm stuff? Uh eeyup, wait here for a bit, ok?". Lemon nodded but as soon as Mac walked away following Applejack the rock girl started to wonder around the farm until she came across the barn, walking inside Lemon found the place pretty clean with crates of hey packed together next to a wall f the barn, there were chairs and tables at the other side and a huge banner was hanging from the beams in the second floor, the big piece of cloth announced the 22nd birthday of someone, Lemon easily figured who's birthday was referred to, with this new knowledge Lemon walked out of the barn and continued exploring.
Meanwhile the Apple siblings were in a heated conversation. "Where have you been all morning and why the heck did ya come back with another girl, she's a shadowbolt at that!".
"Calm down Sis, ah can explain everything but it will be better if ah wait when all the rest are present".
"Hmmm, fine! But it better be good, it's not against her but ain't exactly friends, them and us".
"Ah get it, but then again neither was Aria and now ya included her in yer meeting". Applejack tried to argue but she couldn't find a proper response, her red cheeks proved this and Mac laughed while the blonde girl simply growled.
"Don worry sis, she just a bit like cousin Pinkie, it takes a bit to get use to her".
"Get use to who Hon?". Mac almost chocked when his beloved redhead called from behind, the words that were about to come out were completely lost as Sunset proceeded to hug him, Mac returned the hug when his brain started working again.
"Sunny" Mac said softly but close to her ear so she could heard him. The act was soon followed by a kiss which the two synchronized perfectly, from their lips meeting all they to their tongues dancing inside their mouths. It a clap in the back from both sides to remind the four that there was people observing them.
"Brake it up ya two, ya just saw each other yesterday, ah can't even imagine what would ya do if it was months instead of hours!". Applejack growled, as for Twilight and Starlight, the two simply wondered how much saliva was transferred during the kiss.
Behind them came Fluttershy surprisedly accompanied by Aria. "Sorry". Sunset apologized with pink cheeks but not breaking away from the hug.
"Just ignore us for a bit sis". Mac asked.
" A bit hard since ya two are in front of everyone, ok then, anyone who doesn't want to stare at those two slobbering come with me". The girls passed next to them and following Applejack inside the house leaving them alone.
"So, how was her day, better than mine ah hope".
"Hmm, let me see, I woke up from a hot dream starring us of course, then got kicked out of my own bed, find out my Aunt is missing in action, after that I tried to put some order back in my work, then got to help my friend and now we are about to have a war council of sorts, pretty normal stuff, how about you?".
"Hmm, ah think things started like yours less the kick, scared AJ, drove around askin stuff, found out stuff, then meeting an old friend and-".
"That friend is the person you were talking about with Applejack?".
"Eeyup, name's Lemon Zest, ya know her already".
"Lemon Zest? As in Crystal Prep's Lemon Zest".
"Yep, that's me!". Came the loud voice of the girl who appeared from the side of the house. "Sunset Shimmer right?" The girl got closer and inspected Sunset up and down.
"You see? I was right she got hotter!".
"Wha-what's she talking about?". Sunset asked sinking more in the hug to avoid Lemon's intense glare.
"Lemon please, ah warned ya about this". Mac said with tone of finality.
"Ok ok, I give up". Lemon said in surrender.
"Mah sister is inside with the rest, let's go". The girl walked in as if she was in her house.
"Something I should know?".
Mac sighed." Ah'll explain inside, come on Sunny". Mac took her hand and guided her to the kitchen, as they walked Sunset heard the unmistakable voices of Granny Smith arguing with Luna.
"Is that Aunt Luna?".
"Eeyup, did pick her up from Turner's house this morning, go if ya wanna talk to her, ah'll go ahead and see how is goin' ". Sunset nodded and moved to the living room where she found both adults lock up in a verbal confrontation.
"-so immature! Why in mah times only kids did stupid things like yours!".
"Please Granny, no more, I feel like my head is gonna explode!". Luna heard steps and saw her niece approaching. "Hey kiddo". Sunset waved but did not spoke in fear of been too loud.
Granny Smith however didn't have the showed the same mercy. "Fine ya big baby, yer sister will continue where ah left up!". Granny left Luna to deal with her pain when she saw Sunset her scowl turned into a warm smile. "Howdy Sugarcube, glad to see ya around visitin' this ol bones of mine". Sunset found herself in a hug again, a crushing one.
"Hi Granny, how are you feeling right now?".
"Fine, just fine, just correcting this little thief that tried to take cider from me!".
"I told you sorry like a hundred times already, I just wanted a sip to pass this damn headache".
"Half a bottle is not a sip Lass!".
"Ugh, not so loud".
"For shame Aunt Luna, for shame".
"Not you too, I have enough with Sargeant Grandmeanie here and I still have to deal with Tia later, I just want to rest for a bit".
"After ya shower first, ah won't have booze's stink on mah house!". Very reluctantly Luna got up from the sofa and started walking toward the stairs but suddenly stopped and went back with Sunset holding her by the shoulders and whispered at her ear.
"Watch out for that Lemon girl, I don't like her, she could ta-AUCH! AUCH!". Luna yelled as Granny pinched her ear and dragged her all the way up to the bathroom. Sunset only sighed at her warning and with nothing else to do there she did her way to the kitchen where another scene of chaos was taking place.
Rainbow and Applejack were holding Aria back while Mac was protecting Lemon Zest from the siren as she laughed, all the while Pinkie was using the distraction to take the food laying on the large table and shoving it in her mouth. "What's going on?".
"Say it again bitch! I dare you!". Yelled Aria trying to pass Rainbow.
"Seriously? Didn't you hear me the first time, Silver Shadow got nothing on Deathcry, the best rock band of all time, period". Lemon said proudly while puffing out her chest showing the named band printed on her black shirt.
" You wish, Deathcry is nothing but a bunch of has been, they just do concerts when they feel like they're going to die!".
"So what? Still best band, the get more people in a single concert that Silver Shadow does in a while year tour!".
That did it for Aria who roared and jumped at the other girl only to be caught by Applejack. "Enough of this! This is mah house, ya better behave or ah'll have all of ya helping in the farm until ya bleed from yer pretty little hands and knees!". The roar of Granny Smith paralyzed everyone even while coming from the second floor of the house. Even the two who started the problem seemed to understand the situation.
"Rock head!".
"Punk ass!".
"Girls let's just get this over with". Everyone seemed in the same boat and after everyone took a seat and got a serving it was finally time to plan.
"Ok, I assume everyone present knows about magic and the crisis at hand". Lemon's hand went up. "Yes Lemon?".
"Is she turning into a demon again?". Asked the girl pointing at Twilight Sparkle who recoiled by the question.
"No, she isn't, so, this is... Yes?" Asked Sunset again as Lemon once again for her hand high.
"Are you turning into a demon?". Sunset flinched but didn't Mac squeezed her hand bringing her emotions back in check.
"No I'm not, this time so moving on... Yes!?" Sunset asked again after Lemon repeated the previous action.
Lemon looked at Aria for a while before asking." Is she turni-".
"Don't, even, try!". Aria warned her hearing her teeth and fangs.
"Uuh touchy".
"Lemon, ah didn't brought ya for this". Mac said with a tone of disappointment that actually erased the smug look in the rocker girl, she didn't responded back or anything, she just went completely silent and looked to the table like a kicked puppy.
"Ahem, like I was saying, everyone present knows, or was affected in some way by magic, our group had been dealing with this stuff from our first year of high school and the danger that comes with it, but it never had been so real and close as is it now". Sunset let the words sink in each girl, she looked at her friend's, minus Rarity, she wasn't here yet, then at her boyfriend who looked calm but she could feel his unrest just slightly under the surface.
"Lemon, did you heard about the incident in Rich's property?".
"Yes, my Dad's the head of the police, he mentioned it in a hushed conversation with one of his subordinates, then from the rumors floating around I got most of the picture but it seems all strange, like... like magic strange". Lemon's eye widen as she realized what transpired. "It was you wasn't it ".
Everyone on the table nodded letting the rocker girl more shocked. "No way! So who was this time, was the hobo with the weird eyes? No wait, was it the crazy old man that lives in the mansion outside town?" Who was it?".
"I'll explain". Everyone turned now to Starlight Glimmer. " Back in our world the ponykind had lived under the rule of the princesses, Celestia princess of the sun and Luna princess of the moon for many generations, her ruling had been challenged by many evils before but never like the one we face now, the Rebels".
"They appeared many full moons ago, they first started out as simply ponies protesters, they spoke ill of the royalty and the upper class as well as the form in which the kingdom was protected, this group while annoying it wasn't malicious, they simply formed small riots and mobs but nothing worth checking, then they started escalating, little by little more ponies and even other races joined and they acted more bold and aggressive, they protested for inequality between the classes in Canterlot and how they were in constant threat of wars because the villains captured always managed to escape and return with another plot against peace".
"Things moved from bad to worse when during a friendly visit from the king of the changelings another group of Changelings led by the former Queen Chrysalis attacked causing panic and many ponies lost their lives".
Starlight let the narration sink for a bit, Sunset felt utterly shocked to heard that her once peaceful world had turned violent and worse yet, while she enjoyed a happy life in this world, Mac wrapped his arms around her hugging her and offering comfort. Aria too was perplexed bit somehow this was something she kind of saw coming, with how soft Celestia and her ruling was the Dazzlings easily would had been able do whatever they wanted back then and in fact for a time they did, but then Star Swirl came and kicked them out to this world.
" The Rebels used what happened for their benefit and pushed the blame into Celestia, told the citizens that this was the result of her negligence and that it would be better she designed and place somepony more capable. As all of this happened Princess Twilight asked me to dig into the matter and see if I could find a clue about who was in charge of this organization, to see if they could be stop by revealing to the public who was in charge".
"It was then when I found just how dangerous and deep this conspiracy was, I discover that many of the Protestants were actually been brainwashed with powerful magic, the riots and most of the mobs were been created so ponies around Equestria would lose faith in Celestia and had her removed, worse thing is that is working, as we speak many ponies are demanding for a change in the ruling, most ponies want Princess Twilight to take the tittle of ruler but the more radicals, the ones who lost love ones during the battle wanted all princesses removed from power and to held elections to chose a new pony".
"Now then, about the rebels themselves, originally we thought that this was just another over-elabored plan from one of the typical villains we faced before, but we were wrong, so very wrong, this was big, not only in scale of belligerents involved but also in the ramifications of the movement. Carving deeper into the mystery I found that not only ponies were involved but also other kinds, diamond dogs, griffin, a few dragons and even a powerful siren".
"I wouldn't go as far as to call Adagio 'powerful' , bitchy? Yes, crazy? Definitely, but powerful? Nah". Aria said while observing Starlight.
"And yet she give all of you a run for your bits, unfortunately Adagio is not the siren I'm talking about".
"What? That... that can't be!".
"Did you ever heard the name Emerald Breeze by any chance?".
"I... I... What?". Aria almost fainted as she tried to make sense of she just heard.
Sunset too looked stunned but spoke up. "I heard a bit when I was studying under Princess Celestia, during the war between the sirens and the hippogriff it was mentioned that Emerald Breeze was the siren in charge of their forces, she was described as powerful and ruthless and the main reason why the less numerous sirens were able to put up a fight against Queen Novo and her kind".
"Indeed, the battle was still won by the hippogriffs at the end but at a huge cost, the hippogriffs were reduced by more than half of their population while the sirens were believed to had been completely extinguished, that was of course until Star Swirl found three sirens causing chaos near the frontier of the kingdom". Starlight said while looking at Aria who was still paralyzed. " In any case, this siren was so terrifying that even after victory the Queen was afraid that Emerald would seek retribution for their lost and started planning to take her entire kind and hide".
"Wait! I thought that they when underwater because of the Storm king, Princess Twilight told me so". Asked Sunset.
"The Storm king was the final factor for her decision but Emerald was the main reason, we know this because after we discovered that Emerald Breeze is part of the rebellion Queen Novo decided to go into hiding again".
"Moving on, another member is the leader of the diamond dogs, Rock Chomper, he provides the rebels with labor power and money, be seeks to obtain more money back and to conquer new land to continue searching for gems,".
"Sounds like your version of Filthy Rich if you ask me?". Rainbow Dash joked.
"While simplistic and not very bright the diamond dogs can dig tunnels almost anywhere, thanks to that they baypass a lot of security points and can appear where you least expect them". The girls absorbed the information before Starlight continued.
"Next is the new Changelings, before been defeated for the last time Queen Chrysalis created a new kind of Changeling, one that couldn't survive unless it absorbed love from a host, this way they wouldn't turn like her previous hive, this new Changelings shape-shifting abilities and are more resistant to magic, they are not as numerous as Thorax's hive but they are still pretty dangerous since they need to feast constantly".
"That sounds creepy, like those aliens in that one movie you know".
"They have a leader as well, the new queen, two maybe, we aren't sure yet, the first one is called Ebony Spear, she's almost like Chrysalis but sane, the other one is Scarlet Javelin fue second in command, both of them are stronger that the normal changelings which but what really make them dangerous is the stinger in their tails, they inject poison that can kill you fast if not cured fast and properly".
"Jikes! And you guys deal with this stuff pretty often?". Lemon asked.
"Not constantly and maybe you are the reason".
"What do you mean?". Asked Twilight.
"Their activities had become oddly less numerous but more aggressive, first we thought that they were been cautious, but then they attacked Princess Twilight at her castle and the one in Canterlot at the same time".
"You mean when Mac and I arrived? I remember you mentioning something about me and Mac been imposters". Sunset's comment didn't escaped Applejack.
"Correct, first we thought that the attack in Canterlot was a distraction since the whole thing was poorly planned, the Royal guard managed to stop the attack before the rebels could reach the Royal Chambers, still many of our forces including the Wonderbolts and some of the elements of Harmony left for Canterlot, then they attacked Princess Twilight". Starlight stopped and her head lowered the next words came with shame and guilt. "I wasn't with her that day, I was gone to... nevermind, she was alone and worst yet, her attacker got her by surprise by disguising itself as...". Her eyes turned to Sunset who realized the meaning.
"As me?".
"Yes, that's how she was injured and the reason I attacked you when I saw you in the castle. Even so Twilight managed to push the rebel away but couldn't capture it. When we heard this we rushed to her aid, that's when the rebel sprung their real plan, they invaded the Royal library, more especially, their target was the section of forbidden spells and magic".
"No way! But that's impossible, no one should know about the secret section, even if they knew you need the magic of both Celestia and Luna to open the door!".
"Indeed, however as we discovered In that day, their power can be copied just like that of any other unicorn, you only need an item that had been infused with the magic of your targets, in this case it was an watch that the princesses gave to Princess Twilight one time when they took some time off".
"Why is this no surprise to anyone? Even in our time there Princess Sunbutt was know to be a bit of a kluts" Aria said after recovering some of her personality back.
"This part take me to the last member of the Rebellion, from the forbidden section many spells were stolen, those spell weren't taken at random, the pony who did it had previous knowledge of what to look for and where to look for. When I asked the princess she told me that only a hooful of ponies knew of the location, among those there is Princess Twilight, Sunset Shimmer, Star Swirl and one last one, a pony that that not only helped in the construction of the section but who was responsible for creating many spells guarded there, the very spells that were stolen".
Sunset didn't know who could be, there was never any information in any pony of such description. Starlight continued. "When I asked the princess of this pony she told me that her name was deleted from history due to crimes committed against Ponykind she was from there on only known as the Evil Sorceress".
"Evil Sorceress? You don't mean-?.".
"Yes, the one who created the Memory stone, the one that Clover the clever fought in his last trial. Celestia then told us her name, she was called Sophy Stone, a powerful Chrystal unicorn who served under Celestia as her personal aide as well as her very first appreciate".
