~~~~~~Fluttershy's House~~~~~~

That was insane. I cannot believe you just told off bucking Discord. Twilight thought, practically giddy in a reaction to the stark terror she'd been experiencing mere moments before. You're sure he's not going to interfere? She thought again, as the last turn in the road took them into sight of Fluttershy's house. The sexy, sultry voice of Umbra laughed echoingly in her mind. ~"Oh goodness, yes. He'll pout a bit, and he'll sigh - and in less than a week he'll be holding up scorecards while we work. Trust me dear, Discord is many things but he's never been a fool. He'll get over it, once we've sent him his little friend to relieve some of his... stress."~ Umbra tittered brightly, and Twilight let out a soft satisfied laugh aloud with her.

Her friends behind her were quiet - but they were smiling at her mirth. Of course they were - she was going to bring an end to the harm beings like Discord could inflict upon the world. Everypony's going to be safe, happy and satiated. She thought with a wicked smirk crossing her face. Things seemed so much clearer now, with Discord officially out of her way. Even better, he was sworn not to interfere with her good work - removing one of the few major obstacles to a brighter future for everypony. For the first time since... well, the little incident with Filthy, she felt a bright happiness warm in her chest. This could work. This WILL work.

There was of course, the teensy problem of how Celestia and Luna were going to take all of this... and Twilight did not even want to think about the talk Cadence was going to give her. Still, those were problems for another day. Maybe Cadence wouldn't mind so much once she saw how much love Twilight was spreading. Hehe. Love. Spreading. It was the kind of juvenile joke she'd never have giggled at before - but this side of the Shadow, things like that just seemed vastly more appropriate for a laugh than they had before. Why get so hung up about sex? It was far more fun, interesting, and Twilight had to admit - enlightening - to treat it like anything else she happened to enjoy.

All of this slowly faded as they began to walk up the little path that led to Fluttershy's cottage, and she began to understand just what she was confronting here. Fluttershy was not dangerous. She didn't resist... well, anything except her friends being hurt in front of her. She wanted nothing more than to be left alone with her animals, and occasionally spend time amongst her friends. She was... plundering the innocent, here. Or as innocent as anypony could get, she figured. She was not entirely sure Fluttershy was interested in physical intimacy. She undoubtedly had urges, but... Well, there it was. Of all of her friends, Twilight knew the least about Fluttershy's intimate life - if she had one to begin with.

That presented an obvious question - just how would she react to the awakening powers of the Shadow? It was difficult to predict, and Twilight really hated when she lacked the variables to predict something. Especially something as important as what she was about to do. Nothing for it then, Just going to have to think on my hooves. She took a deep breath and exhaled. "Rarity love, you're up." She said softly, turning her head to kiss the marshmallow pony on the cheek. "What should I be watching for in a signal?"

Rarity flounced her mane to one side, turning her head to catch Twilight's lips in a soft, sweet kiss with a naughty bit of tongue before winking. "I'll give off a pretty little moan, darling." She then demonstrated - her throat letting out a sweet sound that sent a spike of heat right down between Twilight's legs and warmed her there considerably. Rarity smirked, knowing exactly the effect her voice had on her, and winked cheekily. "I doubt you'll be able to miss it." she purred out, and skipped off up the path towards Fluttershy's doorway.

Twilight just shook her head with a laugh. "Alright then. Dash, AJ - Go set up the perimeter." She said, then smirked at both of them. "Pinkie, you're with me." she jerked her head to one side, moving stealthily up towards the house, staying low. And here... we... go.

~~~~~~~~

The gentle knock at the doorway was just loud enough to cut through the doze of the pretty yellow pony curled up on the couch. She lifted her head at the knock to see the face of one of her best friends smiling at her through the window - and she smiled back tentatively. Fluttershy still wasn't used to being such enthusiastic friends with so many ponies - but she had to admit she missed them when she didn't see them for a while. Rarity was the best of them though - she liked calm and quiet, and many of the same simple pleasures that Fluttershy did.

Fluttershy slowly stretched out her limbs and motioned shyly to the door with a small smile on her face. Rarity slid the door open and slipped inside with a gentle smile on her lips, being mindful of her saddlebags... and Fluttershy immediately noticed something different about the mare. There was a soft glow to her, a sheen to her coat, and her eyes were far brighter and happier than Fluttershy had seen her since the Gala three years ago. Her poor friend had had her dreams of a Prince Charming shattered that night, and Fluttershy had never been able to find a way to light that soft hope for love back into her friend's heart.

Perhaps that was why she had missed their spa day yesterday - it had been a bit disappointing, but to see that smile on Rarity's face was more than sufficient repayment for the slight. "Hello, Rarity. I was worried that you had gotten sick." She said softly, trying to reduce the sting of forgetting their weekly date by giving the mare an easy road out. Rarity blinked at her and her eyes went suddenly wide with understanding... and Fluttershy immediately regretted her words, wishing she hadn't even brought them up.

Rarity wasn't going to let that one get away though. "Oh, darling! I am so very, very sorry!" Moments later, Rarity had wrapped her hooves around Fluttershy and was giving her a very squishy hug. Normally, Fluttershy was not one for such displays of affection, but she made exceptions for her friends. Especially Rarity, who knew to never squeeze too hard or hold on too long. Sure enough, the hug did not last long and Rarity looked genuinely distressed. "Things simply slipped completely out of control yesterday. Oh, ponyfeathers!" She proclaimed, much to Fluttershy's wide eyed response. "I promise you Fluttershy, I shall make it up to you in any way you ask!"

Fluttershy found herself giving a small giggle, full of her usual warmth. "Oh it's quite alright, Rarity. These things happen sometimes." She said with a gentle reassurance, sitting back down on the couch. "I know you and all the girls have been busy these last few days. Even Pinkie Pie hasn't been around, so things must've been busy for all of you. "She continued, keeping her voice pitched soft and understanding. "Maybe we could go today instead? Make a little day of it together?" Fluttershy nearly squeaked at the end, but one thing she had learned from these past four years was that she simply couldn't button herself up in this cottage all the time. There were so many wonderful things to go do, even if they were sometimes a little scary. Besides! She wanted to ask Rarity who had finally rekindled that light in her eyes.

Rarity as usual, went from full on drama queen to relaxed and cosmopolitan sophisticate in the blink of an eye. "Darling, that sounds simply marvelous!" Rarity smiled brilliantly - and mentally licked her chops. It did sound marvelous - of course, Rarity fully intended to be making use of the Ponyville Spa's special menu in the process. Something Fluttershy was sadly ignorant of - but after today, Rarity could just imagine the deliciousness of sharing the experience the twins could provide with Fluttershy. It was enough to send shivers down her spine! "Go get your things dear. I shall wait right here." She fluttered her eyelashes at the yellow pony, giving her a sweet smile.

Fluttershy nodded enthusiastically, scampering over to her bedroom. While she dearly loved the quiet, she was very much looking forward to spending the rest of the day with Rarity - which she was very sure would likely include the presence of at least some of her other friends. Certainly, Twilight would probably not be there - and Fluttershy did dearly miss the retiring librarian they had all come to love - but Dash and Applejack would make appearances, to be sure. She quickly filled her little spa-bag with her favorite moisturizer and towel, and snatched up the bag of bits from last week’s payday. She hadn't treated herself properly in some time, and this was as good a day as any!

Rarity sprawled out on the couch a little, a coy smile crossing her lips. That beautiful flank in motion was even lovelier than she'd remembered. Even better, she'd soon be enjoying that flank in an up-close and personal manner with her beloved. Oh certainly it was not strictly ladylike to share partners, but the long talk she'd shared with Twilight made it clear that love was not going to be restrictive around her. No matter. One makes adjustments for their very special somepony, and Rarity was more than certain that Twilight's heart belonged to her in truth. Besides, Rarity thought with a slow, sexy smile as Fluttershy came trotting out cheerfully. There are certain... advantages to not being quite so uptight about fidelity.

Fluttershy didn't even notice that look on Rarity's face - nor would she have known what to make of it if she had. Fluttershy's mind was firmly on a long, happy day at the spa - followed likely by an elegant luncheon someplace, and perhaps a little time modeling clothes for Rarity. She may not have been able to take the life of a public model, but Fluttershy still enjoyed the soft feel of those wonderful dresses over her body. Not that she'd admit such a thing in front of anypony, even Rarity - but enjoy it she did.

Rarity hid her smile a moment later, hopping up to her hooves. Now was the time, she thought. Fluttershy was clearly at ease, calm and happy. Rarity extracted the tight bundle of her measuring tape from her bags with a little glow of her horn and a smile. The bundle unfurled quickly, as Rarity slipped next to her close friend. "Fluttershy..." She said in one of her very best sexy whispers. She was rewarded with a little shiver of reaction from the pegasus, and smiled softly. "You know, I was just thinking of how I could repay you." She kept on that sensual sophisticated voice, and was delighted to see Fluttershy not at all panicking over it. That had been her one fear - that coming on a touch strong might scare her off. Easy does it, darling. Reeeel her in... she thought languidly, and her smile reflected it.

"O-oh?" Fluttershy softly blurted out, wondering where this hammering feeling in her chest was coming from. "U-um.. What d-did you have in mind?" Oh that hateful stutter! Fluttershy knew she would never be the mare of the world that Rarity was, but what she wouldn't give to be rid of that nervous tic! They were thoughts enough to send a crimson blush up to her cheeks and she scuffed the floor of her home, wishing for a distraction - any distraction to divert attention from it. "I-I mean if you don't mind telling me..." She stammered again and wished - not for the first time - that she could be as confident as Rarity was. And why in Equestria is my heart beating so fast? She thought with a silent whimper.

Rarity continued giving her that devilish smile - slowly, very slowly pressing into Fluttershy's side and nuzzling her cheek while she spoke in a sultry tone. "Oh, I certainly don't mind darling. We needn't run off to the spa right away, I think." She said, leaning in to whisper into those doe-soft ears. "A little... warming up feels in order. We haven't spent nearly enough time together, darling." She let out a soft little giggle, and was once again rewarded by feeling the mare quiver from just the barest touch she was applying to her with her cheek. Oh goodness, she is so cute! Rarity's thoughts gushed a little, and she leaned up to nibble - just a little - on the edge of those ears. "Don't you agree..." She whispered, softly - hotly into the ear. "Fluttershy?"

Fluttershy was frozen in place, not from her usual fear - but from a tingly desire that was running in waves from where Rarity was touching her. Fluttershy had never felt like this from the casual touches she'd exchanged in the past with Rarity. She had no idea where this sudden, heart hammering feeling was coming from - but she liked it, oh yes she did. She had no idea what to do about it, no idea what it was but she certainly enjoyed every squirm inducing moment of it. "R-R-R-Rarity, I... I..." her breathing was starting to come faster - and her body was giving her all the signs of an oncoming panic attack, but Fluttershy somehow knew it wasn't that. She could barely hang on to her words then, her eyes gone wide and her pupils small. What could she say? What word could she utter out to indicate her approval? It came to her as though plucked from the ether. "P-Please..." She whimpered out, so cutely it damn near melted Rarity's heart on the spot.

Rarity gave of a gentle laugh - and the sweet moan that was her signal to Twilight. "Mmmh~! Please what, darling?" She gently teased, her eyes slowly darkening as she could feel the approach of her beloved. "You know... Don't answer that." She smirked, as Fluttershy turned wide, confused eyes towards her. "I think we'll just try lots of different things, and see what feels the best." Rarity purred out - as the front door swung open without so much as a touch - Twilight Shadow slipping through the door in full regalia, with her beautiful liquid mane of shadows, and those dark purple eyes that enticed and promised without a single word. She strode across the floor, the door swinging shut behind her without even the glow of Twilight's horn. Twilight was smiling, softly - but even that could not disguise the raw hunger in her gaze.

Fluttershy was pinned to the spot by that gaze. She stood there like the veriest deer in the headlights, unable to take her eyes off the mare slowly, inexorably coming towards her. "T-T-T-Twilight...?" Her voice managed to squeak out, her body now trembling with atavistic fear mingled with some feeling she simply couldn't identify. It felt kind of like when she fooled with herself, but so very much stronger. It was... overwhelming. Fluttershy found she couldn't move, even though she very much wanted to right then. Her body simply was not listening to her - and she was starting to feel tingly in between her legs too.

Twilight's hoofs calmly crossed the room...and someplace deep inside of her, she could feel that predator within slowly coming out. Everything in the room felt more alive, more vivid. Colors became richer, the very sound of Rarity's soft breathing was music to hear ears. She could almost smell the combination of fear and lust coming off of Fluttershy, and she wanted to taste it... so much so that her tongue lashed out over her lips before she spoke. "Mm...Hello Fluttershy... I'm so sorry we haven't spent much time together recently..." She kept her tones calm, soft and friendly. No need to get violent - not with Fluttershy. "I promise, we'll be making that up now. All of us will." She lifted her hoof and gently reached out - touching that trembling yellow cheek.

Fluttershy squeaked adorably, but did not flinch away. Twilight could feel something - some pressure pressing down upon her. ~"Fate.."~ whispered the voice of Umbra, a touch of awe in her voice. ~"Fate weaves itself about this place."~ The voice fell silent, and Twilight stroked her hoof along Fluttershy's trembling chin, slowly closing in till she was nearly lip to lip with her. Rarity reached down with her hoof and took up Fluttershy's hoof - squeezing it. The yellow pegasus squeaked again, her eyes darting to Rarity for a moment as the fashionista leaned in and planted a soft, loving kiss on Twilight's lips - the two of them holding it for a moment before parting with a little trail of saliva glittering between them. "Do not be afraid, darling." Said Rarity, in her gentlest voice. "Soon, it will all make sense... and we can go thoroughly enjoy ourselves at the spa." She whispered softly, a little glitter in her eyes.

Fluttershy shook her head only a little, her throat seized up with some unidentified emotion. Why had Rarity kissed Twilight like that? And why did Fluttershy want to be kissed like that so badly? It didn't make any sense and she was getting so confused and- Wait, Rarity had just told her things were going to make sense soon. That was comforting, and that meant she could go to the spa soon too and get that nice fruity scrub Aloe made, that made her smell like strawberries for a week. Then her thoughts were firmly derailed, as Twilight brushed lips against her own.

Fluttershy's mind was a fifty train pileup wreck then - but such wrecks have a habit of flinging certain trapped thoughts free. Suddenly, all of those feelings - all of those squirmy, delicious, hot feelings had context. She was turned on as buck, Twilight had just kissed her, and Rarity's hoof - which she now noticed was splinted - was holding hers gently. How had she not noticed it? Oh right, she had been focusing entirely on Rarity's dramatics - and then on the fact that she had just nuzzled up to Fluttershy without as much as a by-your-leave. And now Twilight was filling up her field of vision, and Fluttershy began to feel like something terrible was going to happen to her... Terrible or wonderful, her mind couldn't decide which.

Twilight felt her breathing coming faster- Fluttershy's eyes had gone from confusion, to knowledge, to abject fear - and it was delicious fear, and lust too. Lots of lust hidden behind that gaze. A Longing, a need that Fluttershy's mind probably couldn't process right then. Twilight could feel herself aching for the taste of this mare - her body, her juices, and her blood were Twilight's to take as she pleased. She pressed in, that hard feeling of fate guiding her body if she started to slow down. No more hesitations - no more mercy. This innocent little thing was at her mercy and she was loving every. Single. Minute of it.

Twilight smiled toothily and then fastened her lips onto Fluttershy's - Rarity suddenly shied away, forced down onto the couch from the wave of pure power that pulsed out of Twilight's body. Her eyes went wide and Rarity felt her body aching to just touch her glorious beloved... but she could not, and knew why she should not. This was not her time to touch the mare she loved. So instead Rarity's good hoof went between her legs and began to rub her wet marehood vigorously, biting down on her lower lip as she watched her Princess Alluring spin another soul into her webs.

Fluttershy's mind had gone blank, unable to process all of this conflicting information. Fear. Anger. Doubt. It all was washed away by a tidal wave of power that flooded into her from that electric touch of Twilight's lips against hers. This was bigger than Fluttershy - bigger than Twilight. Bigger than all of her friends put together. This was something that was meant to happen, and Fluttershy could no more control it than a butterfly could control the wind it rode upon. She realized, in her blankness - that was what she was. A beautiful little butterfly caught up in the mighty wind that was Twilight Sparkle. Power poured around them, shadows lengthened from every nook, cranny and crevasse. They reached out and grabbed the dim shadows of the two mares in the center of the room - and darkness spun up around and inside of them, grasping and touching their bodies - and neither of them aware of this.

Twilight could only feel the pure exhilaration of power. At long, long last - she understood what the Shadow had been trying to show her all along. Fluttershy was, in a sense the perfect example of all the other common ponies and creatures out there. They feared the darkness, feared the shadow because they feared what they might find of themselves in the dark places of their minds. Yet so long as there was one like her - one with the strength to rule them, to watch over them properly and ensure all remained orderly and well - they would not need to fear any longer. They could free themselves from the shackles of the light, and find sweet blissful pleasure in the hot, wet shadows...

She no longer needed to fear her strength, nor how deeply her power could affect a pony. Freeing them completely was what she wanted to do. As she had done for Dash, and Applejack, freeing them of the worries that had bound their feelings away from each other. As she had done for Pinkie Pie, letting free the dirty sexy party pony within. As she had done for Rarity, giving her the deep love she had so longed for... and now, as she would do for Fluttershy - freeing her from her fear of the world. She would become so much more, so much better...

So Twilight did not restrain herself any longer. She let the Shadow in her soul off the leash at last - and it responded with gusto. She did not merely fill Fluttershy with the shadow power- she engulfed her with it, obliterated all trace of resistance with it. Whatever strength Fluttershy had in the depths of her soul, it meant nothing before that onslaught. The shadow darkened the room they stood in, as Rarity clopped herself to the sight of Twilight's power growing with every passing moment. Fluttershy's body sank to its knees, and then to the ground, Twilight simply moving her as though she weighed not a thing- pressing her body under Twilight's and looming over her dominantly. As was proper. As the world was supposed to be.

Fluttershy could feel her world slowly realigning - her body was filled with an unholy darkness that seeped into all of the cracks that were her and began to fill them up little by little. Fear vanished first, and doubt followed it. Her nervousness evaporated and her body slowly began to stir...within her mind, she felt like her cutie mark... a caterpillar that had entered a cocoon. And now she was all wrapped up, warm in this new feeling - this sexy, deep, loving feeling that enveloped her whole body. She could not move, could not speak, and could not think. That was okay though, because that was nature. She had to change before she could move again, before she could speak or think.

Shadows wove above her body, and the body of the beautiful creature that wore the face of Twilight Sparkle above her. It wrapped about them like a warm blanket, and Fluttershy felt her eyes slowly close. She was so tired. She needed to take a little nap, so she could wake up as something new. Her body fell asleep, and the shadows tightened around them into a single mass of power.

Rarity screamed her orgasm into the ceiling, and slumped into the couch, her hoof still idly playing with her clit as she stared in awed wonder at the cocoon. An eternity passed for her, as she slowly began to catch her breath, wondering what was going on inside...

~~~~~~~

Miles away, a pair of milky blue eyes opened suddenly - as wide as they could possibly go. The pounding drums of fate were beating. The world was taking its final breath before the plunge. A gust of wind, strong enough to bang the shutters off her window blew past the tiny apartment, into the east. Silent Moon sat up for a moment to stare as it rattled her shutters with an ominous clatter, and then was gone.

The final grains of sand were falling into the bottom of the hourglass. The time was about to be upon them. She looked blindly down at the half-sleeping form of Shadow Dancer, and for the first time in nearly forty years felt a crack of doubt in her heart. Her eyes welled up with tears - wishing she could see her beloved. All she could do was gently trace her hooves across the familiar curves of the batpony. She leant down and pressed her lips, unerringly to Dancer's... the thestral woke from her doze in surprise, and returned the gentle affection.

Silent Moon's wings flared out and she gathered the mare into her hooves, wrapping her beautiful white wings tightly around her love. Fate was cruel. Order, unkind. The world had no sympathy for the individual. She had always known these things, and never questioned them. Now, faced with the inexorable tide of destiny, she cursed them silently and threw herself into the passionate kiss with her lover.

They still had a little time.

~~~~~~~~

In a place not much further away, Princess Cadence felt the shockwave of power drive her to her knees. She looked up to the window and knew, without knowing how she knew that she was being warned. The whole world was being warned - perhaps even Celestia had felt that pulse, wherever she was. The time to breathe was running out. The water was about to reach the head, and now all that remained was to see if the lungs of the world were deep enough.

She forced herself back up to her hooves and took a deep breath. She closed her eyes and allowed herself one, single tear that splattered to the wooden floor of the train in which she sat. She would weep more later, when time allowed it. For now, there was work to be done.

They did not have much time left to complete it.

~~~~~~~~~

Captain Winterlight slowly walked up to the balcony of her office and crossed her hooves behind her, standing straight up on her rear hooves to admire the city she had built. She had been expecting that power wave. It was her signal to begin bringing all of her plans to fruition. There had been undoubted setbacks, mistakes, and failures. Yet the whole was still there, and she knew the whole would be enough.

It would be difficult, to serve two Queens. She knew this well. But she had never turned back from a challenge, and she would face this one with the skill demanded of her. She turned as a single uniformed shadowbolt appeared from the crook of the doorway. "Summon all of our available troops. Cut short any further recruitment and forget about the other special missions. I want every soldier to the cause inside of the city within 24 hours. Use every resource. Go." The pegasus bowed and vanished a moment later. Winterlight turned her attention back to the city, and smiled.

It was almost time, now.

~~~~~~~~

Celestia and Luna alighted themselves upon a rocky outcropping, overlooking a vast dense forest below. Yet the structure they sought required no searching - it was huge, easily the size and roughly the shape of the old palace within the Everfree Forest. Both sisters looked at the black crystalline structure with some amount of awe. And each could not shake the feeling that they had been there before. That they had walked this road, sometime so very long ago.

Each looked at the other, and a nod was exchanged. No words were needed, not when they were so close to their goal. Celestia pushed herself off first and tried to beat more speed out of her wings. She was tired - oh goddess, she was tired. But she could not rest yet. Not while Twilight was still in danger. Not while that feeling of dark pressure grew upon her conscious with every passing hour.

She poured on the speed. Time was running short.

~~~~~~~~~

Fluttershy knew her time was coming. It would not take long, not with the mass of power that was feeding her... metamorphosis. There was no other word for it. The caterpillar would become something new. Something the world had not seen in a very, very long time. The power grew, and grew within her - and her body began to move. It wiggled and pushed and pulled and arched out - she would break through the power, and breathe new air. Her hooves pushed out from where she lay and she could feel the thick shell of shadow. Her wings, always so weak and delicate, pushed out - somehow so much stronger than before. She could see the dimness of the light...

Her body writhed and fought, pushing itself up from the floor and into a crouch - and from there she began to force upwards with her hooves, cracking the shell with pure upward force. Her wings could not beat, could not move. She needed light. She needed air! Her lungs began to burn and she pushed harder, more desperately - the cracks widened, they began to craze and separate the shell. Her eyes shut tight as her lungs began to hurt - and with one final push, she shattered the shell above her.

Fluttershy's head emerged, gasping the sweet air of the world- her wings flared out behind her, covered in some sort of sticky shadow substance and bits of shell as she shattered through the structure with them - Twilight stood there over her, as she was supposed to be - her hooves gently stroking Fluttershy's sticky mane out - brushing away the bits of shell in a loving fashion. Her voice was odd to Fluttershy's ears at first, until she realized Twilight's voice had gotten incredibly, indescribably sexy. "Welcome to the new world, my child." She whispered, and Fluttershy finally opened her eyes for truth - realizing she had not been seeing with her eyes, but with some new sense she could not describe.

She looked at the shattered remains of the shadow shell strewn about her. She looked at her limbs, covered in the sticky sap of her cocoon...and then she looked over her shoulders, her eyes widening. Where once had been the wings of a bird - now the wings of a butterfly had bloomed. Colored in rich deep purples and yellows, laced with beautiful, delicate patterns of black that had turned her wings into works of the purest art. They were beyond mere words of beauty, and they felt so incredibly strong. They fluttered, like her name - and it felt wonderful just to do that little motion. Her mane and tail had grown longer too, and her whole body felt lighter, tougher, and more capable than it had ever been before.

And then she looked at Twilight, and found she was not the only one to change. Twilight's mane had grown long and luxurious all the way down to the small of her back. Her tail had grown too, to a rich length that put Rarity's in the shade. Her colors were a little richer, a little deeper - and shadow smoked off of her limbs and mane like steam rising from a baking dish. Her smile was like unto the sun, and warmed Fluttershy's heart with love. "Mother..." Fluttershy whispered, extending out her limbs. Twilight laughed - a sound like a thousand beautiful bells ringing all at once, and gently gathered the new pony into her hooves, hugging her softly - stroking her hoof along those beautiful new wings. Fluttershy's mouth opened, and her second word was a sweet moan of pleasure at the touch.

Twilight smiled possessively, and kissed Fluttershy gently upon that moaning mouth for a moment, before speaking softly. "A butterfly shall flap her wings, and the world will never be the same again." she smiled slightly, as Fluttershy blushed bright red. "Go get the girls, Rarity. They need to greet my newest daughter."

~"A little rest, My Shade. Then, we go to Silent Moon to begin our good work. The world must be made free... at last."~

Author's Notes:

Okay, I know Fluttershy comes off kind of hopelessly naive at the start here, but my justification is - She knows about sex pretty well, but she couldn't really process thinking about her friends in that manner until Twilight kissed her... and only then did she realize how much trouble she was in - Too late for her, sadly.

Oh also, sorry this one took so long - This was a SUPER IMPORTANT chapter that I NEEDED to get one hundred percent right.

I think I did too.
