A New Beginning
Chapter 5: Memories of Who? (Part 2)
Previous Chapter Next ChapterQuick recap: I woke up with Applejack not remembering me, got the shit beaten out of me by her siblings, Scootaloo remembered me but only so much. Didnt even know why we're at Sweet Apple Acres. She was taken to where our house once stood while I met with Twilight at Zecora's hut only to find out it was Twilight's fault for Applejack not remembering me. Had to go back, grab my car to get on to Canterlot and had to hold my own wife at gunpoint just to get my keys... After that Twilight and I nearly got arrested, I scared the hell out of a few guards, breaking their car, their guns and even their spirits. I guess after we escaped we had to hide with The Great and Powerful Trixie. She was a magician who could only do somewhat mild magic tricks. Nothing much that Twilight could do yet she knew a few spells to clean things. Had to lie about her show to get her to help us and now we're here in a small wooded area. We woke up the morning after shit hit the fan. I had to go take a leak at the edge of the wooded area. Mares had to go in another area. After I finished I went for my phone. Who knew Trixie had a built in solar generator in her cart. I grabbed my phone in the cart and went back to my car sitting in the passenger seat. I turned it on and went to my texts. Scootaloo texted me. 'They havent found my phone yet... they're keeping me here since nobody knows where mommy and daddy are.... Do... do they even love us anymore?' She texted.
I huffed turning on voice text. "Yeah Scoot... they do love us... very much... I love you too you know? But with Applejack being like that.... I... I just hope Applejack comes to her senses.... Brings me back just for your sake..." I said. I sent it off and looked at others I was afraid to text. Dash, Gilda, Fluttershy and even Rarity... Pinkie? I dont know... Moment later I got a text from Scootaloo back.
'They're having guards around the house.... and... I believe you that Applejack has gone crazy... I... I found the picture she broke. You and Applejack kissing....' Our wedding picture. I hit the voice text again.
"Look... Just hide that picture. Hold it somewhere she wont find it... same with your phone... I love you Scoot... I'll be home soon... Just try to be good for Applejack and the others. Dont cry about me... You'll be okay wont you?" I waited a moment just looking over the other texts. Applejack's texts before this? A picture of her chest, a few 'I love you' texts and one 'be careful out in the snow' from when we were on the mountain.
'I love you too big brother... just... please hurry... i need a hug...'
I was strongly fighting an urge to call her. I had to put my phone away, lock it. This was just... hard for me to just hear from her. I got out of my car and just started to breathe deeply calming myself. Sat in the seats Trixie set out for us yesterday. Just breathing. After maybe a few minutes Twilight came back and sat with me taking my hand. She was wearing some of Trixie's clothes she was nice enough to lend her. That gems tee I was wearing and a new pair of pants. Even a bag to hold her old clothes. "Dont worry Ryder... We're almost done..." She said.
I just sighed. "...Why am I always the one affected by the stupid shit that happens?" I asked.
"I dont know... feels like we both are sometimes... You gonna be good to drive to Canterlot?" I nodded.
"Yeah... You just have to keep an eye on our surroundings... maybe get in touch with Celestia give her our plan of action. We need to fix this fast..."
"I agree... I want Spike back... You want AJ back..."
I handed her my phone without a word and she took it getting up. She put the code in and started Calling Celestia. She knelt down next to me with the phone on speaker. It clicked a moment later. "Hello? Ryder? Ryder what's going on!" I heard someone say but... it wasnt Princess Celestia.
I looked to Twilight then back to my phone a bit shocked. Relieve almost. "Princess Luna! Thank fuck you remember!" I said. "Where's Celestia? Is everything okay there?" Luna sighed.
"Celestia is fine... just protecting me... Apparently the guards think I'm nightmare moon... That I'm trying to trick everyone... What happened? Why dont they remember me?"
Twilight huffed. "You can... blame this on me Princess.... I screwed up a spell again... now Ryder and I are wanted by the guard..." She said.
"You and the general wanted by the guard? What caused that?!"
"The spell I screwed up was a memory wipe spell... Worked on specific memories at first but Spike ended up burning the book with the counter spell."
"You're kidding!"
"Wish I was.... Celestia is helping us best she can with fixing this... I was honestly afraid last night... we told her to check on you... I'm glad you still remember stuff.... that you arent nightmare moon trying to take over...."
"I'm actually glad too.. Dont know who would help bring Nightmare Moon down... Are you alright Ryder? Are you just there protecting Twilight?"
I sighed. "Yes and No... I was kinda pushed out of the house... away from Scootaloo because of this spell... assaulted by my own family..." I said. "I... I had to run into Everfree to hide... when I went back... somehow Applejack got my gun... I took it from her and I just..." I stopped hugging myself.
Twilight sighed. "He had to hold the gun to her to get safe access to his keys." She said. "His sister saw it, Big Mac saw it... Even Applebloom... Told me Applejack begged him not to hurt the girls..."
Luna mumbled something away from the phone. "Ryder... I... This is very unfortunate..." She said. "Nobody was hurt I assume?" I couldnt answer.
"Everyone's fine. Just... scared... We nearly got arrested after driving out of everfree heading towards Canterlot... Ryder destroyed the car and I think he hurt one of those guards trying to arrest us.... Exactly why we're hiding out...."
"Goodness! After all this is said and done I need to see this car and what you did to it!"
I huffed. "...M-maybe... I just... We gotta get this fixed..." I said. "Princess... If Celestia gets her phone back... tell her to call us... We gotta go get food or... something to keep us sharp on the road..."
"Alright... And Ryder... Be strong. You're gonna need to protect Twilight no matter what. Destruction for instruction."
"And destruction is more fun when done by your own hand..."
"Exactly. Chin up General. See you in Canterlot." She hung up and Twilight put my phone back into my pocket. She looked at me confused.
"Quote from my favorite character in those Nukes galore series. I cant help but know that phrase. 'Destruction for instruction.... And destruction is more fun when done by your own hand.... that and pleasure...' Not the best quote but its my favorite."
She huffed covering her face. "Please tell me that isnt a masturbation quote..." She said.
"Well the game it comes from involves gambling and alcohol. Those could be seen as pleasure too... And I swear I didnt have to get a perk for him to say that line!" She sighed and got up.
"You dork... Come on. We gotta get the donuts from the cart... I can pay Trixie to go grab something to drink if needed." I huffed getting up. I followed her to the cart and waited outside. As she entered I just... I couldnt shake this feeling... someone watching me... Either that or sins just crawling on my back. I looked around a bit. Picked up a few rocks and peered in. Both Twilight and Trixie were inside having a chat about how worried Twilight was about me. I closed the door gently and just took aim. Where? Wasnt behind my car, nor the cart. Not even the hunk of junk this cart is attached to. I threw a rock at the road... just to the left of the opening in between a few trees. Nothing but the ricochet of the rock off a tree further beyond. I aimed more left of that. Lower actually. Threw the rock and heard it skip off the ground... yet something didnt sound right... I huffed stepping forward a bit.
"C'mon show yourselves! I know you're out there!" I called out. "No trouble if you just come out and show yourselves now!" I waited a moment. Just staring in the brambles. "I'm gonna count to three before I rip a tree out and chuck it. Maybe nail you with a few rocks... See how much you bleed.... One..." Nothing. "Two...." Again nothing. "Fine... your funeral..." I picked up a few more rocks and just started chucking them where I looked. First few missed, others hit something... Something alive. Something that groaned and yelped with each hit. Only got it about three times. That's when I rushed over and flew over the bush of brambles between me and a clear spot. In that clear spot I saw a bruised guard who was spying on us. He was in camo but he was clearly a guard from his scout issued binoculars, radio and even a badge that fell out of his pocket. I grabbed the radio and pinned the guard under my boot and clicked the button on the side. "To any and all guards around... You might know who I am... You might not... But know this... force isnt wise to use against me or my companions. Your friend I found here? I'm gonna let him go... Yet... who knows what I could do to the next one I catch.... If you so much as come anywhere near me or my car I'm ripping yours up and you'd barely have the time to get out... Now I'm gonna be leaving this spot soon... Anything happens to the mare left trouble will be had. Follow us? Trouble. Even think about moving in now?" I lowered the radio and pushed down a bit more causing the stallion to cry out. I brought the radio stepping off him. "Something bad might happen.... Five minutes to clear out... get moving...." I ended the broadcast and stared the stallion down as he sat up holding his shoulder. Tears in his eyes. I crushed his radio in front of him and dropped the pieces. "Get your stuff and go. I dont wanna hurt you more than I already have..."
The guard went for his stuff. Barely could move his right arm. I held up a hand and grabbed at his other. He was scared but I just gave a gentle tug that slowly got more worse. I didnt pull his arm off. I just pulled until it popped. Not out of socket but to where he gasped. I released it and he could move it better. May have jammed his shoulder a bit under my boot. He gathered his stuff and just... jogged off like nothing happened. I walked out of the bushes back to the cart just as the door opened back up. Out stepped Trixie and Twilight. "Ryder what was going on out here? I thought I heard someone yelling!" Trixie said. I huffed.
"Sorry. Cramp in my leg... Had to stretch it out a bit." I replied. "Everything okay in there?"
Twilight smiled a bit. "Yeah. Trixie showed me a few things... Kinda helped me feel better with what was talked about." She said. "I do have the donuts though." She held up a box of glazed donuts in her magic. Few were eaten out of it but there was still a few left.
"Alright... Well lets just eat something and get out of here. Sooner we leave, sooner we get to Canterlot." She nodded and we went for the seats again. Trixie provided a few cans of tea to wash the donuts down. After that we hit the gas station and filled up. Checked my car over for anything suspicious, just told Twilight it was something I swear was making noise in the engine. Didnt see anything in the engine or even on any wheels, nor did I see anything under the car. Even checked the trunk. Nothing but a backpack in there. Call me paranoid, I call myself prepared and attentive. After we filled up we started off again. I couldnt help but start playing my music. Classic rock station. We drove for a while. As we were on the freeway I noticed something... I looked in the rear view mirror seeing some dark trucks a few cars behind us. I looked ahead and pulled over into another lane before glancing back behind me in the mirror again. I counted two dark trucks. They got over into our lane. I looked for an offramp. Next one wasnt for another five miles. I huffed. Twilight looked to me.
"You alright Ryder?" She asked.
"Twilight... I want you to stay calm... listen to me okay?"
"Uh... Okay... What's going on?" I glanced in the mirror seeing the trucks still following us.
"I want you to check your side mirror. The trucks back behind us specifically." I sped up a bit to get around a few cars. Acted like a show boat revving my engine a bit. Cut over a few lanes and sure enough they followed. She gasped.
"We're being followed!" She grabbed at my arm. "W-we gotta call Celestia!"
"No! We arent doing that..." I glanced at her. "We gotta lure them somewhere... Either that or you take over the wheel and I make them stop following but its your call on what I do. I know I went kinda crazy with the last vehicle encounter... You've got my leash and I'm the beast that needs control."
"Okay... Just keep driving normally but take the next exit..." I went back over a few lanes like a normal driver. Pretty sure one car behind me honked a bit but didnt care. I took a deep breath as I got over another lane. "Easy Ryder... Continue your breathing... Once on the offramp just take the next left if you can. Need some better music to calm down? This one isnt all that calm..." Hard rock song. Metallicolt one. I flicked to the next station. Cool jazz. "Huh... New music... Nice..."
"Keep an eye on those trucks. I dont want them getting too close...." She nodded looking into the side mirror out her window. I just took aim at the next exit. Two miles more. When we got to the exit I didnt even stop. Took the clearest left I could. They started following more... Even put on their sirens. That's when I started driving faster turning on a metal station. This was better. Making me feel more calm... Surprisingly. "Welp... So much for that..."
"You were the one who ran the light!"
"Well its gonna be better to run than stop. They're probably gonna out number us with a few more than last time..."
"Ooh I hate it when you're right... Just keep driving!" We came into a small town that barely would've been marked on a map. Was one of those floral driven towns. I weaved in and out of lanes still running from the guard and even went through a few different parking lots. Ponies walking on the street saw us driving around, some tried avoiding us. Surprisingly none tried stopping us. Yet then again... this car looks like it could tear theirs up. As we exited the little town out on the complete opposite side I huffed. "They're sticking to us like Apple skin on teeth." I floored it, engine roaring now.
"....R-Ryder I... I'm scared... Slow down a bit please!"
"Sorry Twilight but no. We slow down for even a bit they can knock us off the road!" She whimpered a bit looking back. That's when she swapped places with me with her magic.
"Ryder.... I'm cutting the leash... I just... I dont like this... just... get rid of them..." I huffed unrolling my window.
"Just keep the pedal to the medal. Just keep driving towards Canterlot and keep yourself protected!" I sat up on the door just looking back. I looked back at the guard trucks pursuing us. I opened my wings and flew out the window and over the first truck before busting through a fucking sunroof. Inside? Two guards, rifles. They meant business. I grabbed their guns as they tried to aim them at me and bent the guns like they were nothing. That's when I punched the one on my right in the gut and whipped around kicking one between the legs. Then I went for the driver. Busted out the window and grabbed the driver putting him on the roof. He was shitting himself just hanging on as I climbed in. The guard next to him? Pistol aimed right at me. "Good Idea?" The guard dropped the gun just in reach of me to grab it and throw it out before climbing in and slamming on the breaks. Sent me flying through the windshield and the guard on the roof flying to the floor. Didnt have time to check on him but he looked as if he landed to survive. I turned my attention to the guard truck getting closer to my car. A guard was hanging out the window and I charged him just before he fired. Forced the gun down making the bullet hit the floor. I ripped the rifle out of his hands and hit him in the head with it stuffing him back in to the truck. I broke the window out and broke the barrel over my knee, taking the clip out and crushing it before dropping the pieces onto the guard who was checking on his partner. He looked up at me as I peered in. He was frozen as I started ripping a hole above him into the cab of the truck. The guards looked up at me scared. "You boys need to stop this rig right now... Maybe go check on your buddies back there! Someone might be hurt!" And just like that they stopped dead, slamming on the breaks letting me fly off. I flew towards the car and landed on top before climbing back in through the window. Twilight looked to me for a moment before looking back to the road.
"Ryder... I... This isnt you but... I dont care... It's keeping us safe!" I huffed running my hand through my mane. Zero glass shards. Not even cuts on my hands at all from ripping open the cars.
"Exactly why I had you take the leash. I know this isnt me... But this is what I turn into when my life is threatened and so is a princesses. I'm afraid to act on my own... fearing I could hurt someone..."
"All because of Applejack?"
"Yeah... I... I could've hurt her earlier if Big Mac tried rushing me... I could've hurt Applebloom.... e... even..."
"....Even Scootaloo... I understand how you are... To have control... wonder what you have to leave behind if you were to get in trouble... With things going on right now? It feels like you dont have anything to leave behind... We're going to fix this... Just... Deep breath... Believe Applejack still loves you... Deep down she knows she does... The spell is just clouding her mind... Scootaloo too. She's rooting for you even if she doesnt know it yet." I sat back in my seat just hanging my head.
"...they're afraid of me now... Applejack because I had a gun to her... Scootaloo because... She saw me with that gun... thought I was gonna hurt someone...."
"Well nobody was... You were strong to see they were still your family... Now just let me drive, breathe and keep some eyes out for more guard vehicles. You're in them more than i am so you know." I just started breathing a bit just to calm myself down. We slowed down to a natural drive. Had to find a way to get back to the freeway Didnt really take long to find the entrance to the freeway but it took another hour just to get to Canterlot. When we got to the gate I unrolled my window as a guard came up.
"We're here to see Princess Celestia! Let us through!"
The guard looked at the car, then me, then Twilight. Stallion, unicorn, silver armor. "Yeah... Only thing she wants to see is the owner of this car captured and detained..." He said drawing a pistol from a holster. "Now which one of you owns this car?"
"What's the prize? Pair of shiny bracelets? Free new paint job? Ooh I know! You losing your job?" I gave him a smug grin. "Go on use your radio, get some men out here. We'll wait!" I rolled up my window and locked the doors. Just sat back and looked to Twilight who was looking at a guard on the other side of the car with a baton. "Breathe Twi. It's gonna be alright. Car cant be destroyed..." The guy with the baton tried opening the door. Nothing. Same with the unicorn guard. Could barely hear what they were saying. Twilight grabbed at me when the guard on the divers side tried smashing the drivers side window. Not even a crack. Even tried the windshield. There's nothing there either. Now... This is the part that scared the hell out of Twilight and me. The guard with the gun. Now here's something I didnt know... Even though my car is bullet proof it doesnt ricochet the bullets. He fired at the car a few times as Twilight gripped me screaming. I tried keeping my cool... I was around fire arms so often it barely affects me. Still scares me when I see a gun aimed at me... both in dreams and real life I guess. But the bullets... When they came in contact they flattened like they had been shot into... Well... Something that cushioned the blow into something solid. Only fired three shots before just dropping the gun. I unrolled my window and looked at him. "What's wrong? Gun isnt doing what you want? Why dont you just call Celestia down to the gate? Might be easier... Ooh have her bring other guards to try their hand at getting us out of here!" I rolled my window back up and just went to consoling Twilight.
Twilight sniffled whimpering. "...Y-You're lucky this car is impenitrable... I... I think I wet myself..." She said. I huffed.
"It's alright... Kinda deserved it for that... You can still trust me right?" She nodded hesitantly into my chest starting to cry. I shushed her for a few minutes. She just continued to cry. While she cried I saw the front doors open and about a dozen guards, fully armored. Behind them? Princess Celestia. She was in her armor when she was in Manehattan after the attack. She looked pissed but pinched her nose flagging the guards to open the gates and let us through. I nudged Twilight off having her just press the gas while I just steered. We parked just to the right of where we were. I looked in the rear view and I saw Celestia telling everyone to stay back while she approached the car.
I watched as she came to my side of the car. I rolled down my window and smiled as she bent down. "Ryder... Three cars, one guard seriously injured, another with a broken leg, a high speed chase through Equestria and reports of assault and attempted rape!" She snapped. "Do you have any idea what it's even like to have guards contact you after being forced to suit up to greet my general who cant do anything but destroy?!"
"Princess you said I could do anything as long as I didnt kill anyone and nobody died. Just a few injuries, one of which was just bad planning! We needed to get here to get everything fixed remember?" She huffed.
"You're right but... Just know anything like this happens again... I dont care if you're my general I will do something about you... Even if it is making you clean the entirety of Canterlot with a toothbrush, a maids dress and tight mares undergarments shown to the world!" She looked back at the group of guards. "Everyone is hearby dismissed and these ponies in here are to be left alone! Both pardoned of what ever they were involved in!" I watched as the guards started walking away dispersing in all directions. Celestia flew over the car and landed at the door on the drivers side. I had to unlock it because Twilight was covering her face crying. She heard the door open and cowered screaming a bit. Celestia knelt down putting a hand on Twilight's shoulder. "Twilight! Twilight it's just me! You're okay! You're fine..." Twilight grabbed a hold of Celestia and hugged her. She shushed her as I got out of the car carefully, stretching my wings, cracking my back and such. "Goodness Twi you're soaked! Did those mean old guards scare you? Come on..." I could see Celestia's horn glow a bit before pulling Twilight out of the car holding her as she would Scootaloo. No stain on her pants. I walked over and rolled up the windows all the way and took my keys out before shutting the door and locking it. Seat even felt as dry as a bone. No I didnt wanna rub it just to smell her piss.
After walking into the castle Celestia set Twilight down next to me. I offered a hug but instead? I got a punch to the face. "This is for scaring me during that arrest!" She snapped. I got a punch to the gut. "This for the chase and destroying those cars and this..." She reeled back with her foot and got me where it counts... Hurt like hell... Would rather have them ripped off than this... "...WAS FOR THAT SCARE AT THE GATE ASSHOLE!" I collapsed on the ground holding myself between my legs.
I took a breath.... Wheezy one from the wind getting knocked out of me but it hurt everything taking that breath. "Okay... okay... I... I deserved all that... S-sorry Princess..." I whispered.
Celestia huffed looking at Twilight. "Here." She said using her magic conjuring a little card out of thin air. "Take this with you to my personal library. Use the words 'Ut Victorium ex cinere' to my guards if they try to stop you. Only I would know that phrase and they wont touch you. They do, do what you did to Ryder then utter the phrase 'De voluptate et dolore'. Then they really wont touch you. Anyone else tries to gang up on you... Just scream for me. Radios pick up high pitched screams and activate them. I'll hear it through other guards radios and I'll tell them myself." Twilight nodded plucking the card out of the air and running off. Celestia turned her attention to me. "Now Mr. Troublemaker... lets get you with Luna and get you an ice pack to soothe your pain." She carried me as I was. I was afraid to come from my position fearing my balls would swell and explode. "What happened to cause all this rage within spilling out like that? Usually you'd be under control." I took another breath.
"...A-Applejack would be the one... I'd think about... to keep me from doing shit like... like this..." I coughed a bit... groaned because it hurt so bad. "When she assaulted me... and when I put the gun to her... I... I felt like.... I had lost the mare I loved... that.. there was nothing to hold me back from ripping something apart... even killing someone if it went that bad..." We started towards the stairs.
"You're still a guard Ryder. You need to show that control all the time no matter the situation... While I allowed this... I didnt suspect you'd do this much damage... I should see if Twilight is willing to rework that spell... Return you to normal strength with everything..." I looked to her worried.
"Can you... give me time to work with it at least...? Maybe... help me control myself?"
"....Ryder... I hate to say this but no. You need to do this. Your strength plus your idiocy could get you killed one of these days... Those guards that were sent after you were heavily armed and could've just started laying into you, using every clip they had on you. I ordered them not to. Only to take you into custody for this." I looked to the floor as we reached the top step and started towards the hallway.
"You? You ordered them to take us in...?"
"Yes and just that."
"One of them.. they nearly killed Twilight... I had to knock them out just to get here... Hung outside the vehicle... rifle aimed..."
"And this is true?" I nodded. "Look... I'll believe this... Give you the benefit of the doubt... you still need that strength reduction."
"...I... I want AJ back..."
"Dont worry... you will..."
"...Will I?"
"Yes... Now I'm gonna put you into the safe room with Luna... The guards didnt remember her and wanted to take her into custody. She's keeping herself awake in there... I was lucky to find her before a guard did... Would've arrested her fast... I'm just... I'm glad she isnt nightmare moon... Probably would've woken up, seen me and attacked... Now... just... Try not to hurt her when you get in there.... Please?"
"...I wont... I.... I'm scared Princess... I really am..." Tears quickly welled up in my eyes and I just started crying. She shushed me as we turned a corner going up another set of stairs.
"I understand Ryder... It's gonna be alright... You're okay... Everything's gonna be alright..." I dug my head into her shoulder as I cried. She shushed me. "....Dont cry... dont cry.... everthing's okay... You're gonna be okay..." I kept crying as we weaved through more and more halls. We walked through Luna's door and she sat me on the bed before going back to the door locking it. She looked back at me. "Ryder... Can you get up for a moment? Please?" I nodded hesitantly and stood up. "There we go... Now... I'm gonna show this to you.. pay attention...." She turned to Lunas dresser and started tapping at things. A bottle, a stack of books, a stuffed toy, the bottle again and even turned a picture on the wall a bit. Each of which made a mystical chime noise. After that the bed behind me started to move. I looked back and it opened up from the foot of the bed lifting up, the wall indenting a bit and showing a staircase down under it. "Alright... head on down... Luna's waiting... some familiar company should keep her comfortable." I kinda hesitated but without another word she pointed at it. I just looked to her as I started down... when she was out of view the safe room started closing up.
Only walked down slowly for about a minute as I came down to see a good size living space. Large bed- where Luna was laying looking very tired- TV with game console attached (classic Luna....) a few posters on the wall being from Nukes Galore and others, even shelves full of figurines. I approached the bed to see her smile. She was wearing a tank top and shorts. Pajamas still. "Ryder... Thank goodness you arrived...." She said with a yawn. I climbed into bed and lied with her. She brought me in cuddling me a bit. "Hey hey... it's okay... You arent in trouble are you?"
I shook my head. "...feel like I should be.... or... that I am... and... Celestia isnt saying anything...." I replied. "...I... I want AJ.... I wanna go home..." Luna wrapped her arms around me.
"...If she says you're not in trouble you arent... Just take it... Do you need a nap? I could definitely use one... I can try to keep you occupied... would that be alright?" I shrugged a bit. "Come on Ryder... I can see about linking your mind with somepony..."
"....N-nobody remembers me... Applejack doesnt... I'm... afraid to even see about the others... E-even Gilda..."
"...I understand.... its scary having nopony remember you existed... or that you had come back from a jail... I've been in here since last night... Celestia entered the room, forgot to close the door... I woke up to a few guards trying to force their way in... I asked Celestia what was going on and she just told me to get down here... The last place someone would check if there was an attack.... So far it has kept me safe... I'm just... refusing to sleep... keeping an eye on my own surroundings... for safety..."
"...You need to s-s-sleep Princess... I... I'll sleep... only if you do... please.... dont make me beg..." She grumbled a bit.
"I... I want to fight... but you're... you're just... I cant...." She huffed. "Fine... I'll sleep but... I want you to at least use the toilet before we sleep... And... Promise me.... You'll take a diapering without problem...."
"...J-just do it... I dont care...." She picked me up and set me on the floor sitting up herself.
"Here. Toilet is just in the corner...." She yawned as I hobbled my way into the corner. Things faded into existence, others out of existence. Those spells they used in the RV they must use here as well... Saves space I guess... Minimal and it does provide hiding places.... I entered, used the toilet, blew my nose and went back to Luna's bed and hopped up. She was in the corner at a cabinet I didnt see walking in. From here it looked like it was stocked with video game stuff. She came back over with a few diapers in hand. She sat down and sighed pulling my pants off. "Here we are... take a deep breath... calm down... I'll meet you in your dreams if you fall asleep... Might have someone we can talk to..."
"Who...?"
"Someone close... someone we can trust... I can sense them sleeping right now... They're... hurting... scared... they need my help..."
"But... Those guards didnt remember you...what says they will...?" She used her magic on me and I fell hard asleep. I soon found myself in a dreamscape of a fenced off Sweet Apple Acres. The trees looked a bit sickly, apples rotten. I was dressed in what I was already dressed in. Military service shirt, jeans and my sneakers. I just grabbed onto the fence and just looked down the road at the house... I could see it on fire... smoking a bit even.... Well... more smoking a bit than on fire. Only fire I saw was in a barrel fire at the mouth of it. I heard a huff behind me. I looked back and saw Luna wearing her pajamas with an obvious diaper bulge at her hips.
"Ryder... I'm sorry I had to do that... I... I promise... I'm asleep now... I swear..." She brought me away from the fence and hugged me. "...this is scary... I'm scared just as much as you... not knowing if anyone is gonna remember me... if I'm gonna be okay after this is done... I havent been this scared since the time I came back from the moon and reawakened after I was hit by the Elements of Harmony..."
"I understand that fear now I guess.... Nobody knowing why you're there... what you're gonna do.... even if they can trust you at that moment... they're wondering if you're just gonna attack them.... violate them..." I looked back at the house. "Just to get my car yesterday... I... I had to hold AJ and the entire family at gunpoint... just for my keys... I really hate myself for that... the thought I'd do something like that just horrifies me... makes me not even trust myself near a firearm..." Luna took my hand and we flew over the fence landing on the otherside... Just walking towards the house.
"It's good you didnt hurt anyone... you love them too much to do anything bad to them... exactly why you didnt...." She looked to me. "Tell me... what was Scootaloo like the whole time?"
"Scared... Didnt know why we were at Sweet Apple Acres... didnt know what happened to our home... mom and dad... Sometimes I wish it were that way but... the lies I'd have to tell..."
"Well... it's better to tell the truth... In something like this all it takes is something to trigger in their mind... to make them remember..." She looked forward as we started nearing the house. I looked forward as well. I saw near the barrel fire Scootaloo looking to warm herself by the fire. Her clothes were just burlap sacks re-purposed for a dress. Her mane was a mess and she was just hugging herself. I admit it felt a tad cold where I was. I let go of Luna's hand and just started running to Scootaloo.
Scootaloo looked up at me and just ran to me. "R-Ryder?!" She said. When we met she jumped into my arms hugging me. "Ryder! Ryder I wanna go home! Applejack is being mean! Big Mac keeps telling me you're not my big brother and that you dont love me! That's not true! You do love me! ...Dont you?" She looked to me... tears in her eyes, streaming down her smudge ridden face.
I sniffled a bit getting misty eyed myself. "...Yes... I do love you Scootaloo..." I replied. "...I... I'm.... sorry you had to see me like that... with Applejack... she... she was being very mean to me with that gun... I took it from her just to make sure she didnt use it to hurt anyone... Nearly hurt me with it..."
"She did...?" I nodded.
"Yeah... and after I took it from her... she thought I was gonna hurt her with it... and you girls... I wouldnt hurt her, you, Applebloom... Not even Big Mac... Even if he tried to hurt me... which he kinda did after the other morning..."
Luna came to my side and huffed. It startled Scootaloo a bit and when she looked at Luna she FREAKED. Like I mean so bad. She struggled, screamed, tried pushing away, tried hitting Luna, smacked me a bit before just breaking down and crying hiding in my shoulder.... wetting herself.... Luna grabbed my shoulder and turned me a bit towards her. "Scootaloo! Scootaloo calm down! I dont wanna hurt you!" She said. Scootaloo wasnt listening. I looked to the Princess and back at Scootaloo prying her away from my shoulder.
"Scootaloo! Scootaloo! Calm down! She's friendly!"
Scootaloo screamed more struggling to get back into my shoulder. "NO! NO SHE'S EVIL! IT'S NIGHTMARE MOON!" She yelled. "RUN RYDER RUN! SAVE US! SAVE ME!" I huffed.
"Scootaloo! SCOOTALOO!" I pried her off me all the way and set her on the ground. "Scootaloo! LISTEN! Please!" Scootaloo whimpered cowering a bit falling back onto her butt. "Scootaloo I'm sorry for yelling but please.... Trust me... she's nice..." I let her go and backed up a bit.
Princess Luna lowered herself down a bit and held her hand out... Scootaloo cowered a bit for a moment before looking back a moment later. She looked to me and I nodded just before she looked back at Luna and hesitantly crawled towards her. "There we are.... See? I'm not gonna hurt you..." She said. "I know you dont know me but... I'm Princess Luna... You probably thought I was Nightmare moon right?" Scootaloo sniffled nodding. "Well dont worry... she's gone... wont come back ever again... Can you tell me what's wrong? You seem to be a little worse for wear for a little filly..." She looked up at the house. "Is this your home?"
Scootaloo sniffled. "....N-No... I dont... I dont have a home..." She said. "...I dont even know where my mommy and daddy are.... Can... Can you help me find my mommy and daddy?" My heart broke basically here. Luna looked up at me and then back to the filly kinda... stammering.
I rested my hand on Luna's shoulder and knelt down. "Scoot... Mom and dad are... they uh...." I said. I started fighting more tears. "...Scootaloo... if I tell you... promise me you wont tell Applejack this... she's gonna take it, twist it around on you... Okay?" Scootaloo nodded. "Well... Uh... while... you and I were out of the house... you were.... with your friends... I was with mine... We were out of the house and... a... Someone... very very bad came to the house and... they... hurt mommy and daddy... very badly... there wasnt anything we could do... "
"...Y-you mean.... they're...." She stopped herself.... I hugged her again and brought her over into my lap.... held her like I did the night I got home from the precinct in Dash's room... She started crying hard.... I did too. Luna could only watch as we cried.
Luna just sighed, her lip quivering. "...that someone that took your parents was caught.... your brother saved you from going anywhere away from your friends..." She said. "I had to watch you at one point while your big brother was out... he needed some time to cope with your parents being... gone... I made sure he came back... saw you, cared for you... even changed you when you had an accident... You were always happy to see him... every time he came home, every time he brought you little toys and stuff... And I know this probably doesnt mean much right now but... Applejack is supposed to be Ryder's wife... you're sisters with Applebloom and Big Mac is your other brother... they love you just as much as he does..." Luna looked up a bit before she looked back to us. "...Time to wake up Scootaloo... I promise your brother will be back..."
I looked to Scootaloo and wiped her eyes. "...You be a good girl.... I'll be back soon..." I said. "I love you... Just remember dont say anything to Applejack about what was said here... just tell who ever is there you had a nightmare..." My sister nodded hesitantly and just faded away in my arms... I stayed in what position I was just whimpering. Luna huffed.
"...You alright general?" I sniffled going a bit limp.
"...It's... it's never easy telling someone a loved one died.... Never easy telling anyone someone they loved died..."
"That it isnt... I would know even though it turned out to be a big lie..."
"...Can we wake up soon... or at least me? You need your rest more than I do..."
"Alright General.... I'd probably check on Twilight and Celestia... Celestia used Twilight's phone while I was changing you to tell me you scared Twilight half to death trying to get into the castle...."
"Yeah... I admit it was... overboard... I... really need to apologize to Twilight...."
"Well go do that. Longer you spend asleep less time you have to say youre sorry." I looked to her. "Dont worry... I'll be fine... I'll see you later General...." Her horn started glowing and everything started fading. I woke up finding myself in the bunker room. Luna was there at my side passed out asleep, shorts a little low revealing her diaper. I got up finding my pants all the way off revealing my diaper... yeah I was wet but I ditched it quickly, grabbed my pants and shoes going for the door. I ascended the stairs flicking a switch on the side opening the hatch to the bedroom. As I came out I took my phone out checking what time it was. We got here around mid day give or take. It's been a few hours since then. One forty five. I checked the door making sure it was locked before I went to Luna's bathroom and went to her bathroom opening the door to the balcony slipping out the door closing it behind me and kneeling down pulling out my phone. I sat there a moment looking for Twilight's contact.
I started to call her and just looked out over everything. I wasnt that afraid of the heights as I once was... I felt the warm kiss of the sun on my cheek, a cool breeze coming in from the north. The phone clicked and I heard a huff. "Ryder! What do you want? I'm busy!" I hear Twilight say.
I huffed. "Where are you guys?" I asked.
"Royal library. East wing. Get down here now... either that or stay away... I couldnt care either way..."
"Well... I... Understand Princess... Can I ask you to have Celestia spread word that I'm on my way? I feel the guards could see me and rush me, maybe force me to do something I dont want to.... I need guaranteed safety walking through the castle..." She huffed.
"Fine... Just dont fucking talk to me when you get here...."
"Alright... I'll talk now if you'll at least listen...."
"Make. It. QUICK." I sighed.
"Princess... I... Apologize for the way I've been... mood under stress and all but.... I will get what ever punishment you see fit for me... no argument, no trouble.... I'll give you time to think on this... give the thought time to fester.... I'll... I'll see you there...." She stopped me just as I went to pull my phone away.
"Ryder... Wait..." She said. "....I want.... I wanna apologize.... for everything.... hurting you, berating you and just... how i've been acting.... you've pretty much saved our lives more than once... that chase... I saw the guards aim rifles at me in the car.... I got scared but didnt wet myself like when we were at the gate... yeah you did go too far but... I think you deserved the small beating I gave you..."
"Agreed... it hurt a lot I gotta admit... But... that still needs to be applied through professional means.... I'll take what ever you have planned." She sighed.
"Okay... I'll think on a punishment.... Maybe for right now be on the lookout for Spike.... Should be coming via armored vehicle. Sent it out about an hour and a half ago.... should be here soon."
"Right away Princess... Hope we can get a meal soon as well."
"I know right? I'm starving!" She and I chuckled a bit as I got up. "Alright enough talk. Get to it!" I hung up my phone and shoved it back into my pocket and started flying off. I flew around the castle towards the courtyard where I met Daring. I came around to the front of the castle and landed near my car. Still in good shape because I guess they know what happens if you mess with it... But yeah. Opened up my car, sat down and started it up a bit just to listen to some music while I waited. Few gems songs, a commercial or two about the destruction I caused... switched stations and started listening to some big band music. After maybe about fifteen minutes of sitting in my car, listening to music I heard the gates open up. I shut my car off and grabbed the keys getting out. I looked to the gate to see an armored truck entering with guards directing it.
I walked over and the first nearest guard stopped me. "Sir you may be permitted on grounds by the princess but you have no authorization to see the prisoner. Get back inside or back in your vehicle."
I huffed. "Princess Celestia ordered me to come down here, oversee the prisoner be brought in." I said. "Told me the code was Alpha Omega forty two." The guard huffed.
"Okay... fine... You may be here... But you even try anything funny with the prisoner I'm taking you in myself."
"Seventy Two Delta Virgo." The guard raised his eyebrows shocked. That code? I'm not to be touched under any circumstances. I'm supposed to use that code if I'm to be given a chance to talk to a higher up who refuses to talk to the princess. But it applies to any situation where I feel threatened.
"...Smartass... Fine... do what you fucking please.... use one more code the princess gave you and-"
"And what? You're gonna go to the princess herself who allowed me to use those codes? Big Shot are we? To me.... You look nothing more than a recruit than a general.... Officer even to be generous...." He took his helmet off and just shoved it in my chest before walking off. Heh. Hothead. Love em. I looked to the other guards. "Alright! I'm in charge of the prisoner from here on out. Princesses orders, code Gamma Virgo Thirty Five!" Code for control even if never given in the first place. I approached a guard going into the back of the armored truck. "What's the situation?"
The guard huffed. "Prisoner was brought from a... Castle... to the south in Ponyville. I dont remember there being a castle there but Celestia doesnt want to storm it and take over." He said. "Prisoner is a... dragon of sorts... Small but feisty. They had to put him in restraints and give him a mouth guard to keep him from spitting flames. He seems to enjoy eating gems but only if he eats them himself. Doesnt want anyone to feed him. Dont have to go crazy and eat us if he gets hungry."
"Good. I've been given orders to bring him to the royal library. Restraints stay on even after we get to the destination." The guard nodded as he opened the truck doors to reveal Spike. His clothes looked a bit ripped but he still had pants on thank goodness. Ripped jeans, his teeshirt hanging half way off his body. Shackles on his wrists, legs, mouth guard on as well. He looked as if he wanted blood. I put my hands up and got in front of him. "Woah there big guy... C'mon step out nice and gently.... Dont worry we arent gonna hurt you...." Spike let out a feral sounding growl... something I've never heard him let out before.
"The... growth canceling shackles on the prisoner does wonders but... what it doesnt protect from is his... terrifying growls. The men think he might try to escape." I huffed.
"I'll take the lead on this one. Need an escort in front towards the library, escort in back to see my safety is ensured." He nodded and rounded up a few guards while I carefully brought Spike out. "There we go... I gotcha... you can trust me..." He slowly stepped down with only me supporting him. "There we go... one more step..." And with that he hopped to the ground, chains clanging as they hit the floor. "There. Now lets just walk... Gotta bring you somewhere." Spike growled a bit at me. "Hey now no need for that buddy... We're going somewhere nobody is gonna hurt you... Just come on... Follow me..." Hesitantly he started following me. Could barely hear myself think as we walked towards the castle. Once inside and in the carpeted halls I could. I took my phone out and looked at a few texts.
There was a text from Celestia from Twilight's phone. How could I tell? 'General its Celestia. Has Spike arrived yet? Twilight is getting worried!' I got my camera ready on the texts and took a picture of myself with Spike. Sent it right along.
'He's here. A bit mad but he's listening to me. Yet I did have to take control with keyphrases you "Said I could use..." heh guy was pissed.' I waited a moment as we turned down another hall.
'Yeah... I'm glad you didnt force it like you did those trucks... I'm just gonna tell those guards there was a bad crash. Malfunctions with those vehicles if they dont remember after this.... Twilight says that's one thing she remembers from the one scrap of paper found from that book.... said that a spell- might not be this one in particular- might have some consequences of those retaining memories while under the memory spell... Seems as if those who dont remember went back... years... even before nightmare moon or Twilight. They're addressing her as Princess which is good considering they know royalty.' I looked to Spike. He just looked unhappy.
'I just hope Spike forgives Twilight for locking him up like this... Luna got to sleep by the by... if you were wondering.'
'Good. She was worrying me... Hurry up now. Talk to Spike, make him feel more trustworthy with you.'
'Understood.'
One of the guards looked back at me and Spike. "Uh... Sir... is there any change in the prisoners behavior?" They asked. I almost couldnt tell them because Spike met my gaze.
I looked to the guard. "Yeah. Seems fine. Just continue." I said. "Just... Keep going. Seems like a reasonable speed with this and his restraints." I looked to him and sighed. "You're good right? Just... Nod or roll your eyes... I'll know which." He snorted a bit. "Not happy... I get it... being shackled up like this.... Been there too... Had to be taken away in cuffs, forced into a cell- deemed dangerous. Guards thought I killed my parents but I didnt... Killed the one who did though... I do know your feeling but yeah it might not be as bad.... Try telling that to the guy who nearly took his own life when the princess allowed him to have a gun..." I looked away a bit. Could see him out of the corner of my eye looking at me kinda shocked. "...Yeah... Got that bad... It was a mix of emotions... losing loved ones to death, nearly losing loved ones to them getting taken away, my own actions and finding out the one who pulled off the murders was an ex of mine... First time I'd actually killed someone... Wasnt good for me after...." I looked back to him. "This good behavior you're on right now? Good start. I got out via good behavior and further investigation for the next couple days. You? Could be out in a day or two. Making a good first impression here." We turned into the larger hallway. The more... Decorative hallway with busts, stained glass windows telling a story- some of Celestia others of Twilight and her friends with the elements of harmony. I could see Spike looking at them. Recognized a few of Twilight when it was clear enough. "Yeah... Heroes of Equestria... I'd be in one if I were much of a hero... saving everyone from a dictator in another country didnt help... neither does helping take down a changeling army do much for me." He looked to me looking as if he was questioning Changelings. "Weird bug pony things that... basically could make themselves look like you or me. But... Believe it or not you've had run ins with them before... Pony we're about to meet and whos pictured in those stained glass windows... Her brother nearly married one."
I could see the look on his face turned worried. I just hesitantly rested a hand on his shoulder without another word. He felt... Comfortable with me... Got closer. As we entered the library I was actually astounded by the amount of books in here compared to Twilight's library. To be honest it doesnt even make me wanna compare the treebrary to that. Definitely had more books than both library's Twilight had. Probably more books than Twilight checked out from libraries. Twilight stood there with Celestia now in her gown. The guards knelt down after they dispersed to the side. I held spike in the open as the door closes. Celestia stepped forwards and I saluted. "Thank you for bringing him here General." She said. The other guards made noises of confusion. "If you would... Come over here and stand at my side." I nodded and looked to Spike.
"You're gonna be fine... just stand right here... keep your eyes on me and you'll be okay... Things are gonna be alright..." I started to pull away but he stuck close to me.
The guards started to move but Celestia put her hands up meaning stop. They halted in place. Twilight approached us tears in her eyes and knelt down in front of me. Spike got closer than that. "Spike... I... I know you dont remember me other than having you locked up the other day..." She said. "I... I want to fix this.... Can you please... just step away from the nice stallion? I'm nice too... I promise... can you trust me?" Spike looked to me just scared.
"Go on... She's cool... I'm not going far..." Spike hesitantly let go of me and stepped towards Twilight. Just as he started stepping forwards Celestia sprinkled something over Twilight's nose and she let out one hell of a sneeze sending a blast of magic. Kinda sent some of us back onto our ass... me included. Same as her. When things were calmed I got up to see Spike on the floor and Twilight getting up as well. We both went to Spike's side. "You good Twilight?" She huffed.
"Yeah... Sit him up just be careful with him." I sat him up and loosened the mouth guard. He didnt move but he was breathing. "Spike? Spike sweetie...? Wake up... please?" I could hear Twilight's voice getting weaker.
The air was tense as we were waiting. I looked to Celestia who was just looking away, a few guards at her side talking with her, asking what happened but it didnt seem like she was giving any answers. I looked back at Spike and he started stretching a bit. His eyes slowly fluttered open. "...T-Twilight...? What happened...?" He asked. Twilight said nothing. Just took him from me and hugged me. I looked to the nearest guard whistled and motioned with my hands to need the keys. He grabbed his, tossed em to me and I used them to unshackle Spike both arms and legs. I tossed the shackles aside.
As I rose to my feet a thought crossed my mind. Applejack. I ran off into the library and pulled my phone getting into a more quiet part of the library. I started to call Applejack. I paced back and forth worried.... Scared even. Then I heard a click that stopped my heart. "...R-Ryder? Ryder where are you? I'm scared..." I heard a filly say. I sighed hearing Applebloom.
I huffed. "Applebloom thank god! Where's Applejack? I need to talk to her!" I said.
"Sh-she's right here! She aint waking up! Neither is Big Mac and Scootaloo's trying her hardest!"
"Alright calm down! Get Scootaloo up with you and put AJ's phone on speaker. Gonna take both of you to wake Applejack up and Applejack can wake Big Mac up. You know how heavy he sleeps!" I could hear Applebloom call for Scootaloo, telling her I was on the phone.
I waited a moment and heard Scootaloo crying a bit scared. "Ryder! Ryder come home! Please!" She said.
"Scoot calm down listen! I'll be home later just right now help Applebloom wake up Applejack! Do the things you do to get me up when I'm that tired!" I then heard yelling and crying for a moment. I sat down at a reading table, my heart pounding.
That was when I heard her voice. "...Girls? Girls stop screamin'... I'm up I'm up... Why am I on the floor...? Where's Ryder?" She asked. I huffed.
"On the phone AJ. Tell the girls to go back to their rooms, calm down..."
"I... Might keep em here... they're scared... I kinda am too... the hell happened? Why was I on the floor? Why does my head hurt?"
"Well uh... Twilight used a spell, it went wrong and now we fixed it."
"Alright... Where are you? You at the castle?"
"Canterlot actually... I had to help Twilight fix it... again... I'd give you the details but I'll have you text or call Twilight about that."
"Okay then but uh... Can I ask somethin...?"
"Yeah."
"...Why's the picture we had hanging up in the hall gone?"
"Oh uh... Well... Quick one: You and everyone tried beating the shit out of me earlier with a bat, someone broke the picture and I guess from what Scootaloo said earlier someone threw it away... But can you just get the girls away or take the phone off speaker?" I waited a moment hearing tapping before things quieted up.
"There. Off Speaker. Need something?"
"Yeah... I just... is there anything you remember before you blacked out?" I heard her hum a little bit.
"I do somewhat recall a gun... dont know why i'd even have one to be honest... or why you'd have yours out... Something happen with that?"
"Look... I'll talk to you later about that... preferably with the girls taken care of and Big Mac awake. Maybe call the others, see if they're alright. This was a... pretty big screw up..."
"I'll take your word on it... For right now... Just... get on to what ever it is you're doing... I'm gonna nurse this damned headache and get Big Mac up... see if he cant help me get these girls calmed down... seem pretty scared..."
"Alright... I'll uh... I'll see you later... Love you AJ."
"Love you too sugarcube... talk to ya soon."
And after that click I just felt a warm feeling rush through me. Just hearing her call me sugarcube is just so... AH I love it! I got up from my seat and walked back to Celestia and Twilight. Saw Twilight and Spike walking out together with Celestia dismissing the guards having them follow or escort Twilight away. I gave an audible sigh alerting her. She looked back at me and... all I could do is just fall to my hands and knees in front of her. "Someone regretting the things they did to save the day?" She asked. I didnt answer. "...Ryder... Everythings gonna be okay... no jail time, nothing harsh I promise..." I gave a little whimper. She just picked me up off the floor. "You really do hate yourself... dont you?" I gave a hesitant nod. "And you really feel as if you should be punished...." I nodded again. "...Okay... I guess we can give you a punishment... I'll try to think of one... For right now... perhaps a drink is in order? A little alcohol wouldnt hurt right?" I shrugged. "Alright... well... lets just get going... I'll think of something along the way."
She didnt really think of anything along the way. Only had one drink before switching to some soda or something. Didnt feel like drinking my guilt away. We stayed in Canterlot that night. I was put in Celestia's room under her watch. She had my bed where Scootaloo's once was. I sat down at the foot of it looking out the window. The sun had set but some of us decided to turn in early after all the excitement. I sighed as Celestia came to my side resting a hand on my shoulder. "...Maybe I'm not cut out to be a guard... Too many things to go wrong..." I said.
"That's the Ryder I havent heard for a long time... last I heard that was when you were a recruit.... Or... acting like one... Yes you might not be the perfect guard but each of my guards have something special about them... You? You're just as abnormal as Discord minus the weird magic. You've got weird super strength that can tear open vehicles like tin cans, a baby sister who has you wear diapers for her, a wife who's got that cute southern drawl you're always goin on about, you've got friends in high places and maybe some friends... elsewhere perhaps?" I glanced back and just saw she was raising her nightgown on the side revealing she didnt have panties on. I blushed a bit meeting her gaze. She was also blushing smiling a bit. "...I... guess you needed a little something to feel better... Maybe be nice enough to give this old mare a hand to feel better of her age?" She used her magic to take her dress off revealing her whole naked body. She just extended her wings, grabbing her breasts and pinching her nipples just teasing me. "Come on... Do you want to make me cry General?"
"N-No Princess... I... I'm just... shocked you would have me.... This isnt some scheme to get pregnant is it?" She took me off my bed and started undressing me.
"No Ryder this isnt... My title stays where it is.... If you're so worried about getting me pregnant Cadence did teach me an infertility spell as a temporary fix." She dropped my pants and honestly... I kinda felt dwarfed by her size... even my dick felt small compared to her... yeah... even if she didnt have one. "Maybe a small expansion spell to please thy princess? Or would you rather I take control on all of this?"
"By all means... Go ahead... I'm under your control." She smiled and just started using her magic on me. She brought me over to her bed, enlarged me a bit... gotta admit that felt weird but she suggested it, not me. She enlarged me and used that infertility spell and brought me over to her bed. She might be a mare with some years on her but... damn... started sucking me off using her tits to rub me. "I... Princess...." You know... this would shock anyone here. She takes her breasts away from my cock and just deep throats it and holy hell I had to arc my back. She came back up for a breath and just looked at me.
"Something wrong Ryder? Wifey cant do what your princess can?" She nudged me more up on the bed putting my head on her pillow. Was soft memory foam... Jealous... She climbed on top of me and teased herself. Her wings twitched as I slipped in and she slowly eased down. "OOh! My goodness... this is gonna be some fun..." She slowly eased herself down and I could just feel her warmth. I just could NOT believe this amazing feeling from Celestia's pussy as she started to ride me. She came down with force every time. I just sat back as she just rode me. Stared at her blushing face, her bouncing breasts... This was something I could tell everyone about and be envied. Well... if I wanted to. She looked to me and brought me up putting my face in her chest and ooh... just feeling those plump breasts knock against my head as she bounced up and down on me just made me hit my limit fast. I felt the need to cum so badly but I gritted my teeth holding back. "What's wrong General? Feeling like you're about to blow?" I hesitantly nodded. "Then go on! Cum inside your princess! Cum as hard as you can and fill me!" I wanted to release but... I couldnt. I was continuously on edge, wanting to achieve orgasm but nothing. My god it felt so... so good but it started to hurt. "What's wrong? Cant perform? Dont want to see me filled up? Cant?" I looked to her and couldnt muster any words. "Ah... Realizing something's finally wrong? Well... Welcome to your punishment... an invite to have sex with your ruler yet unable to cum when she commands it... Orgasm denial... Dont worry... you will be able to cum again when I want you to...."
Good lord it hurt. She went on for a few more minutes having orgasm after orgasm just riding the hell out of me like Braeburn on the mechanical bull at that bar I went to in Appaloosa. When she felt I had enough she used her magic on me and I came SO hard I could swear I saw Celestia's stomach bulge out a bit. Her wings just extended, frilling out and she just held back on her moans. Once I was done she carefully slipped off and helped me to the bathroom. I felt like crying but I didnt have the energy to cry. She had to help me clean off and return me to normal size while simultaneously cleaning herself the best she could. She did explain I was infertile for the session but after that I passed out. I soon found myself in a dreamscape face to face with Luna and Applejack. Applejack was wearing her jean shorts and a tank top while Luna was wearing her royal gown. We were all in the room at Sweet Apple Acres. "Hey there sugarcube. You good after today?" She asked.
I huffed. "Yeah... Just..." I said looking to Luna. "Maybe... a bit of privacy Princess?" Luna nodded and walked outside of the room. I looked to Applejack. "....Applejack... I'm gonna be entirely truthful with you right now... and its gonna scare you just as scared as it made me... Yesterday when... this all started... I woke you up and you were basically thinking I was gonna violate you... You, Big Mac and Applebloom ganged up on me and ran me out of the house... Scootaloo saw every bit of it... Yet after I left and went to Zecoras to meet Twilight I checked that tracker app you said worked well... it works too well... I guess you took my car and.... took Scootaloo home... Poor filly thought she was homeless when she couldnt find mom or dad... Scared me wondering what you'd do with her...."
"I guess in my mind I had it to where we were gonna keep Scootaloo here.... I just... I cant believe we started hittin' ya... cant believe I thought you'd violate me.... Anything else?"
"I... Well... This part... I would never do to you... not ever again... its caused too many problems and I just want it gone now.... My gun... when I went back to the house to get my car.... You came out with my gun... dunno how you got it but... I got it... you looked so scared when I had you lead me back up to the room... I swear it just... it hurt me... I... I didnt want to hurt you but... it was in my hands... wanting someone to hurt...." I started to tear up.
"...Sugarcube I..." She stopped grabbing my hands. "...I... I'm glad you... didnt hurt anyone here... but I just... cant believe you'd even be forced by my hand to even hold that gun to me.... Too many guns around us... fired at us, around us... even by us... no more of them in the house... not even them dart guns.... I really am worried about you sugarcube... its... it aint like you for that..."
"...Aj.... I... Can you get the princess please....? I need her right now..." She gave me a kiss and nodded before getting up and heading to the door.
She knocked on it and waited a moment before Princess Luna came back in. She came over to me and I just hugged her. "There there... You're gonna be okay..." She said. She looked to Applejack. "What's it about now?"
Applejack sighed. "He's torn up by what happened... doesnt trust himself..." She said. "Told me... pretty much everythin' about what happened these past couple days... its understood why he's like this... nearly hurt me and the family in the process... Might need you to take his gun and put it somewhere safe away from this house...."
"I guess I could oblige.... I'm not sure how many times this is but... i'm sure this is a good idea...." She looked to me. "I'll root around in your mind, change a few things so we forget these things... And before you say no this is an order to allow me to do this... See if I can return you to normal..."
I sighed. "...Just... do what you need to... I need Applejack...." I said.
"As you wish... Dont hesitate to call if you need anything General. I'll let you know when I'm done." And like that she went back outside. I looked to Applejack.
"Normally stallions say a ball and chain keep them back from doing what they want... I actually thank you for being my ball and chain... I've... caused some destruction I'm not proud of... But just... just know I'll only do this to protect us..."
"I saw on the news... stallions reported someone ripping through their cars like a tin can. Aint gonna lie you did a number on them cars... Might be good if we get in a wreck and cant get out. Guess destruction is as good as construction for you." We had a little chuckle. "Yeah but... I guess I can say this ball and chain thing aint bad when I'm the ball and chain keepin' ya from destroying more... Guess it felt like I let the chain loose when I turned on ya huh?" I nodded.
"Yeah... To be honest... I wanted to cry when you and everyone started hitting me... made me feel like I just.... wasnt wanted.... just didnt wanna be there... You're my life that I just would do anything for... Ive gone through hell and back- quite literally in some places- just to see you happy... I mean... I had to get Luna to bring me to see your parents and.... it was only to get your fathers blessing just for you... Big Mac would've been just as well but... you know he'd've been a blubbering baby about it."
"Just like you when you wet your pants?" I blushed a bit. "But... yeah... boy would've blown it open more than anything.... Glad you slipped that ring on my finger... You're... Probably the best thing that's happened to this family..."
"Love you AJ..."
"Yeah... I love you too... But I gotta say sugarcube... If I did lose my memory due to amnesia to me hitting my head, someone knocking me out or maybe we got a little too rough in the hay and I got launched off the bed.... Would you stay with me? Help me get my brains back?"
"For that brain in your head? That beautiful brain under those beautiful locks and behind that beautiful face?"
"Guess'n you would... Might be a bit hard to make you lose your brain... might not be much to lose there but... I'd love you either way... Say uh... when you get back here could you maybe.... Fuck my brains out? Been a while since ya did..."
"I would but... A little sore from my punishment from all the destruction...."
"What happened? Get a train run on ya by a dozen guards with no lube?"
"I... Well... that probably would've been better than that... You know that thing... Cheerilee talked about with Big Mac during that teacher conference?"
"Ah... Yeah... barely had a damn thing to talk about with our sisters but... Gotta say it got a bit revealing with the shit she liked... Then again Big Mac's told us she likes to get a little rough.... Still dont wanna know how but... is it what I think it is with not letting you use your filler to fill her?"
"Well... Magical stop instead of any toys... And... hurts more when a princess is just horny as fuck doing that... Please... if you wanna do something like that to me... please make sure I do cum at some point... I'd even take it if you or Gilda has that one spell on them to make me cum a different way...."
"Heh... well... good on you to get some Princess pussy... sorry it had to be like that though."
"Thanks I guess... Now... You just wanna cuddle until you have to wake up?" I saw Applejack look up a bit, her ear flickering a bit. "Or not... Scoot or Applebloom?"
"Scoot... I'll tell her to get in bed with me... Told her before bed she'd see you tomorrow. Probably was scared.... nightmare or something..."
"Alright... Make sure she knows that I'm coming home... if she's wet... change her... maybe ask her what was wrong... I... Kinda have a feeling I know what she had a nightmare about...." I motioned with my hand for the gun.
"Ah... I'll be sure to tell you if it is... Gun's doing a number on our families physically and psychologically.... I should go. Talk with you later." I nodded and watched her fading away. It left me alone to think. Time to toy around with my dreams, think of everything I could do waiting for Princess Luna to finish. It was a really weird experience. Eventually Luna came back questioned where Applejack was and just let me wake up after I told her. After that I had to have Celestia kinda help me around while I got the control of my legs back, sore groin paralyzing them. Took... Couple hours, some ice, some heat, some in between. Even played a few of Luna's games on my account. Played for... oh maybe a few hours until Twilight had me turn the game off and start heading home. Before we left we had Celestia get a tow truck to follow us and have Celestia agree to lend a hand in getting Trixie's car fixed. She's got a loaner while this one is being fixed at the garage I had it brought to. My god you should've seen the entire garage staff face when I got out of my ride. My old boss? Dude looks at me, tells me to get out buuut that I was here on business. Told him Celestia would pay for this car to be fixed and all the parts being made by her top engineers (IE NOT ME) and that they'd be installed when delivered. I prodded one of my old buddies a bit by telling him to make sure he balanced it right. Oh the jokes. Best thing? Told them a guard would be by every day to inspect the car starting an hour after I left. No damage to be done. Those guys did get a good look at my car which kinda won most of them over but my old manager didnt like it. I peeled out leaving. Hope they saw the news if they knew what could happened if they broke this things somehow. Fun time at the garage.
