A/N: hey, this chapter isnt as long as my earlier chapters becuase i dont have long sections here. the next chapter though will feature the moving out to fight. WARNING! THIS CHAPTER FEATURES A CLOP SCENE! WARNING! that is all.

The room that everypony was in was quite large and circular, allowing everypony a sight at the speaker. Anthony stood at one point, Shining Armor to his left and Scarlet to his right. Queen Chrysalis was not available considering her status and the changelings’ demands. The rest of the unicorn squad sat around in a circle, all provided by the changelings. Shining was a little nervous being in the home of the changelings, but he knew that he could trust Anthony. Scarlet started the talk.

“As princess of the changelings, I give you my humble welcome and apologize for my mother’s absence. She has much work to do and is unable to see you all. I hope you can all understand this. Now I will be here in this discussion to provide any answers that Anthony might not be able to answer. I will also remain in my unicorn form for this discussion,” Scarlet said, being very formal and calm. The squad was able to relax and be calm.

“Thank you Scarlet, now to get you all up to date. I know already one thing one your minds, and that is how am I a pony again. The spell I use to change into a human only lasts a week, and then I have a cool down period of a month. So that is why I’m a unicorn.

“Now, when Scarlet and I first got here, the changelings were in the middle of a civil war. Scarlet had spoken with the leaders to get an agreement in order. Scarlet shall be taking control of the changeling kingdom after the death of Blackwing, with Queen Chrysalis submitting herself to the Canterlot authorities for trial. They have agreed and will assist us in the protection of Canterlot,” Anthony paused here to catch his breath. He continued quickly.

“Scarlet had to speak with them because I was not able to at the time. About a week ago, Blackwing found me out in the woods while I was gathering food. He caught me when I had no armor on. He now has the ability to transform, and it is not pretty. He tore open my chest and I broke his arm in three places. He escaped and I got back here as fast as possible. Chrysalis and Scarlet healed my body and my transformation spell wore off. I’m still having a hard time breathing, so pauses will be common for a few more days,” Anthony said, pausing again with a slightly labored breath.

“We now have a staff that can train the changelings. They are already strong and have organization, but they lack proper combat skills. Shining, I want you to start training them. I’ll help later, but right now I still need to watch myself. Each of you will have your own rooms to sleep in, and you shall be escorted there. This meeting is dismissed, you may leave. Shining, may I speak with you in private?” Anthony said, a door opening and some changelings walked in. They took the unicorns and led them to their rooms, leaving the three alone.

“What is it that you wanted to talk about?” Shining asked.

“Luna has been keeping me up to date when I sleep. We will know right away when Blackwing moves, but I need something. I want to know right now, do you think we have a chance?” Anthony asked, his strong demeanor gone. It was replaced with one of concern.

“Truthfully? I believe that we have a chance, but I haven’t seen met Blackwing. I don’t know how powerful he really is. Why do you need my opinion though, aren’t you just as powerful?” Shining asked, not thinking that he wasn’t.

“Honestly, I don’t know. His power is great, greater than it was six months ago. He might actually be more powerful than the Elements of Harmony,” Anthony said, shocking both Shining Armor and Scarlet. Scarlet had not known how powerful he really was, and she knew that the Elements were the most powerful objects in the world.

“Wait, Blackwing might be more powerful than the most powerful objects ever?” Shining asked, raising his voice in surprise.

“Yes, I am. Which brings me to another concern; fighting him might be the last time I use my transformation spell. I have found that the spell was never intended for long use. The consequence of changing too many times involves permanently being trapped in the selected form, uncontrollable power surge, and death. I don’t fear any of that coming to pass, as I see that Blackwing will make sure I don’t live to see that day,” Anthony said, admitting out loud what was in his mind for the past few months.

“Wait, you think that you’re going to die in the fight with Blackwing? But you’re the most powerful unicorn I’ve ever met,” Scarlet said, breaking her silence.

“I know, but that doesn’t mean shit to Blackwing. I won’t even be able to fight him as a unicorn. He’s too fast and strong, I’ll have to fight him as a Spartan, and event then it might not be enough. I have already made peace with myself on this matter, so you can’t change my mind. But now onto other business, Shining I name you the godfather of Luna’s and my child when he or she is born. We have already conversed on this subject and she agrees with me, so will accept?” Anthony asked Shining Armor. Shining was taken aback by the proposition, but recovered and answered.

“It would be an honor to be your foal’s godfather. And if I am to guess correctly, Luna will be asking Cadance to be the godmother?”

“Yes, and I’m sure she’ll say yes. Thank you, Shining, it gives me a level of security knowing that she’ll have you to look over her after I’m gone,” Anthony said, tears forming in his eyes. Scarlet went over to him and grabbed him in a hug, prompting Shining Armor to do the same. Anthony calmed down and the two stepped back from him. “Now then, why don’t we take you to go see Queen Chrysalis? I think you two have something’s to work out, if I remember correctly.”

“Ya, you could say that,” Shining said, a frown growing on his face.

The Hive: Throne Room

Queen Chrysalis sat on her throne listening to her War Committee. These changelings were the ones who she could trust to give her accurate information on the enemy and how to stop it. Scarlet waked into the room and quietly moved over to her mother, the Committee not even looking in her direction.

“Mother,” Scarlet whispered. “Anthony and Shining are waiting to see you.”

“Thank you,” Chrysalis said, sighing in relief. “General’s, if we may continue this tomorrow, I would like to have some personal time with my daughter.”

The general’s all got up and left the room without a single protest, considering the last time they did it ended with the death of one of them. Anthony and Shining Armor walked in the same door that Scarlet had come through earlier. Chrysalis saw Shining and an evil smile formed on her lips, while a scowl grew on Shining’s face.

“Ah, so it is true that you are here. How is Cadance?” Chrysalis said, her voice sending a chill through everyone present.

“Now mother, remember what we talked about,” Scarlet said, instantly trotting up to her mother. Chrysalis sighed and looked at her daughter.

“Of course, I am sorry Shining Armor. I normally do not get to greet those whom I have had relations with,” Chrysalis said.

“You call ‘relations’ kid napping my fiancé and pretending to be her? You are one sick bitch,” Shining said, his anger rising.

“Now, now, everyone calm down, this doesn’t have to get ugly. Chrysalis regrets taking Cadance away and pretending to be her and she regrets the attack on Canterlot. Will you two just leave it at that?” Anthony said, taking a step forward so he was more in between them.

“Well, I don’t regret the whole thing. I did enjoy Shining’s companion at night, you know what I mean Shining,” Chrysalis said. Scarlet blushed, Anthony facehoofed, and Shining Armor went over the top.

“Why you no good, evil little insect! What makes you think that you are allowed to speak to me like that?” Shining Armor said, puffing up in anger.

“Don’t tell me you didn’t like it either. If I remember correctly, you always pushed for it,” Chrysalis instigated, causing Shining to start fuming. Anthony quickly moved to defuse the situation.

“Okay, I think that the past is the past and it should be forgotten. Or at least put to the side while we have serious shit going down. Can you two do that?” Anthony said, hoping they would compromise.

“I can do that, if Shining Armor will do one thing for me?” Chrysalis said, a mischievous smile crawling on her face.

“And what would that be?” Shining asked, his temper still high.

“We reenact the night before the night before the wedding,” Chrysalis said, her evil plan out. Anthony stepped back because he had no clue what shit was about to go down. Shining stood dumbfounded and then got pissed.

“You evil BITCH! I would rather fight Blackwing right now without my magic than do that again with you,” Shining said, true anger in his voice.

“Then I guess that you and your team are no longer allowed here in my kingdom. You can go back to Canterlot and take your chances as traitors,” Chrysalis said. Shining took a step forward but was quickly stopped by Anthony.

“Look, I know she can be a bitch, but you don’t have much choice,” Anthony said to him quietly. “Besides, it can’t be too bad if you enjoyed it once already. If you have a logical reason on why you shouldn’t, then just do it.”

Shining Armor inhaled and sighed loudly, knowing that he had only one thing and it was weak at that. He breathed in and walked up to Queen Chrysalis, holding his head high.

“Fine, we can do ‘that’, but only this once,” Shining said, releasing his breathe.

“There, now was that so hard to commit to. I will have my chambers set up for us later. Be there after you have eaten dinner. I’ll be waiting,” Chrysalis said, leaving the group.

Anthony thought that they were done when he realized that nothing was accomplished except to get Chrysalis off. He face-walled at the stupidity of allowing Queen Chrysalis out without talking to her about the situation at hoof.

“Well I call bullshit,” Anthony said, removing his face from the wall. An imprint of him was left behind.

“What? Why are you the one calling bullshit? I should be considering what I have to do tonight just to keep my squad here,” Shining Armor said, looking at Anthony.

“Because, I have a million and one things to do and Chrysalis just walked out to do random activities with you that only you two know about. All right, you know what. Fuck it, Scarlet and I will figure this shit out. I still need to sleep, but I guess that will only happen when I’m dead,” Anthony said, walking away in a fit of anger.

Shining Armor walked over to the shocked Scarlet and stood next to her for a few seconds. He looked at her in wonderment to how well she had been handling the situation.

“What’s wrong with him?” Shining Armor asked.

“I don’t know. He has been very cynical ever since I met him. He wasn’t like that the whole time, but little things would set him, especially when he woke up from Blackwing’s attack. I’ll ask him later, after he’s had time to cool off. You can tell your team to make themselves at home and eat something. Then I think you should go see my mother afterwards. It is not good to keep her waiting,” Scarlet said, turning and leaving as well.

Why do I get put in these situations? Shining Armor thought, shaking his head as he walked to the barracks.

Chrysalis’s Bed Chambers; later that night

Shining Armor stood in front of the doors to the changeling queen’s room as he pondered his choose in doing this. He knocked on the door three times while taking in a final breathe of outside air.

“Come in,” a voice said from inside, sending a chill down Shining’s spine. He opened the door and walked in to find Queen Chrysalis in a very un-queen like manner.

She was splayed out on her bed in a vulnerable position and was wearing a maid’s custom. She looked up at the surprised Shining Armor and grew a smile on her face. She lifted her hoof and waved him over, Shining visible swallowed hard. The door closed behind them and all that was heard from the room was silence.

Scarlet and Anthony’s Room

Scarlet was walking out of the bathroom as Anthony was laying on the bed reading another one of is spell books. Scarlet shook her head and got in bed next to him. She snuggled right up to him and he looked at her, dropping the book down.

“What do you think their doing in there?” Scarlet asked, using her magic to bring the blanket over them.

“I don’t want to know. It might not be something I would want to even think about. But I can guess what we might do tonight,” Anthony said, pushing her onto her back and planting a kiss on her lips. Scarlet returned the kiss and began the wrestling match of tongues inside his mouth.

The kiss continued for some time as they fought over who was to be victor. Scarlet was no match though as she was the first to break the kiss for the nectar if sweet air. She looked up at him and smiled, knowing what he was going to do next. She looked down and saw his erect member waiting to penetrate her. She gave a singular nod and Anthony pushed forward, placing the head just at her opening.

Scarlet gasped slightly as she felt it on her moist lips. Anthony pushed a little harder and got just the tip in and waited, knowing Scarlet was still sensitive. She nodded a little, giving the approval to continue. He obliged, but was still careful to be as gently as possible with her. He pushed into her inch by inch, watching her face turn from one of discomfort to that of pleasure. He finally bottomed out, sitting still for a moment to allow Scarlet time to adjust. When she gave the go ahead, Anthony took over.

He pulled out of her slowly, only leaving the tip in. He then pushed into her, faster and with less caution as before. He continued into her until he couldn’t go in any farther and pulled mostly out again. He then pushed in even faster and with more force than before, knowing that Scarlet could handle it now. He continued increasing his tempo until he was like a piston for a European super car, moving at a high rate.

Scarlet was enjoying the high tempo, loving how she was never empty for long. She felt him in places that she thought was unreachable by any stallion, but he was hitting them every time. She couldn’t hold back her orgasm forever, but she was going to try. The complete pleasure from the pounding was unlike anything she had ever experienced. Scarlet felt her orgasm about to peak and she could back anymore.

“I’m cumming, oh, I’m cumming!” Scarlet screamed, her body convulsing as her orgasm rocked her body. Her vagina squeezed Anthony’s stallionhood, preventing him from moving. She didn’t release for close to a minute, riding her peak down. Sweat covered her coat and her breathing was labored, but she wasn’t done for the night. “Are you cum next?”

Anthony was taken aback a little by the question, not knowing how much energy Scarlet had left in her. She then changed back into changeling form right underneath Anthony. He felt her tighten up over his member, knowing this was going to be more work on his part.

“I’m about to give the most pleasurable sex you have ever had, and all without me finishing,” Scarlet said, a devilish grin growing on her face. Her horn then glowed green as Anthony felt a sensation traveling down his urethra. His breathing started to become labored as his pleasure grew all from the little bit of magic traveling through his erect.

Scarlet quickly turned the tables on him and had him lying on his back, Scarlet riding him cowgirl style. She started to rotate on him and looked him in the eyes, knowing he was getting closer to his orgasm. She leaned down and moved to kiss him, but thought otherwise and instead bit down on him. He was used to her feeding off of him, but not in this form. Instead of feeding, she was injecting him with something. His use of his arms and legs started to fail him, but his voice was still his.

“What are you doing?” he asked, his breathing becoming more labored from the sex.

“Just making it more pleasurable. You will soon only feel the move on your penis, riding you to orgasm. You will know only pleasure from this, what do you think?” Scarlet said, knowing he wouldn’t be talking soon.

“And I guess you get to choose where I finish too, don’t you?” Anthony’s last words were, not the greatest, but it would work.

“Of course, what changeling princess would I be if I let this delicious cum go to waste by not absorbing it into myself? Don’t worry, I won’t get pregnant. I’m saving that for when I am queen,” Scarlet said, ending all conversation.

She bounced quickly on his dick, knowing now he could only feel that. She could see his face starting to wince up from almost reaching his orgasm, thanks to Scarlet’s magic. She leaned back and allowed him to watch his own member enter and exit her, feeling his orgasm coming. She felt him tense up inside her, his member slightly enlarged from the amount of semen in him. She rode him for the last few seconds before slamming herself down on him, sending him over the edge.

Scarlet felt his cum start to fill her, then over fill her. Semen started to flow out of her at a large rate and more was pumped into her womb. Scarlet actually started to get scared that he would get her pregnant, but she didn’t show it. She rode him to allow some room for his cum.

Scarlet felt her system then start absorbing the semen, filling her with much needed energy. She looked down at her captive and saw him breathing heavily, knowing it took a lot out of him.

“Shh, sleep my darling, sleep. You need your rest after that,” Scarlet said. She didn’t have to wait long for him to fall asleep and his dick to soften.

Scarlet laid down partially on top of him with his softening member still inside her. She was thoroughly satisfied and knew she needed to sleep for what was coming up in the next few weeks.

The two slept soundly that night after their pleasurable time, nightmares not entering either of their minds. The same could not be said for Shining Armor, as he laid on Queen Chrysalis’s bed. He was just glad that she had finished with him and fallen asleep, for he was not liking what she had done to him. (I would go and tell this part, but I don’t want to go into that, so I’ll leave to your imagination.)

The next day; Breakfast

Scarlet and Anthony were the first to make it down to the dining room, it being the only one in the Hive. A table was laid out will different types of foods for Shining and his squad, all of which was for breakfast. Shining’s unicorns came in at 0700 on the dot and sat down at the table, waiting for Shining Armor.

“I wouldn’t wait too long, he might not come down for breakfast. I don’t think he had a good night last night,” Anthony said, levitating a bagel over to his plate.

“And what makes you say that?” Shining’s lieutenant asked, not knowing what they knew.

“He had to work with Queen Chrysalis all last night, figuring out how to feed all you pansies. The last time I had to work late with Chrysalis, I definitely did not want to come down to eat. Spent the whole day locked in my bed chambers,” Anthony said, sending a message to the troops: Don’t ask what happened.

The squad got the point and started to eat breakfast. Scarlet leaned over and whispered in Anthony’s ear, “You never worked with my mother on anything.”

“Ya, but they don’t know that,” Anthony whispered back, Scarlet realizing why he lied to the unicorns. She straightened back up and continued to watch the unicorns feast. They ate everything that was hot, knowing that a warm meal was not always on the menu.

At 0830, the unicorns got up and proceeded to leave for the barracks. Anthony got up and walked with them, planning on using them to train the changelings. Scarlet walked off to get the changeling army put back together and to the training grounds. 0900 started the call for war.
