Chapters Chronos' Sexual Revolution
The Stallion Who Would Mount The World
“They don’t understand at all.” Chronos said standing out on the balcony of his room. The wind blowing his perfectly parted purple mane as his jade green eyes scanned all that stood beneath him. The shining jewel of Canterlot was below filled with the upper crust of unicorn society. Beyond that was the small hamlet of Ponyville filled with a smaller, but more diverse population. Even further was Apploosa, Manehattan, and Fillydelphia.
Chronos had a plan for all of Equestria when his time came, but those plans did not include getting hitched to some mare his parents picked out for him because they couldn’t understand why he needed to sleep around. They didn’t understand that Chronos wasn’t sleeping around because it was fun or exciting. It was all part of a much larger undertaking to create a better kingdom.
Chronos always wondered what he could contribute to the kingdom as an heir to the throne. Ever since he was told that it was his duty to one day lead an entire kingdom, he wondered what his contribution would be. Aunt Celestia gave the world the gift of the sun, and his mother gave the world the gift of the moon. What would be his great contribution? He could guide the sun and moon as well as his mother and aunt, but he would only be perpetuating their legacy. Fortunately, he had the perfect idea how to not only create a legacy, but one that could surpass both Celestia and Luna at the same time.
“Marriage is going to ruin everything.” Chronos said stomping his hoof in anger. The floor cracking in response.
“Somepony’s in a foul mood. Did his little sleepover not go so well?” An all white unicorn said entering the room and hopping on the bed as if she owned it. The prince sighed as he turned to greet his guest.
“Charity. I thought I told the guards you were no longer allowed access to my room.” The white unicorn sat on the bed in all her lustrous, white beauty with an air of superiority that matched his own.
“You say a lot of things, dear.” She said playing with her flowing white mane.
“What do you want?”
“Is that anyway to speak to a lady of nobility?” Charity said feigning shock.
“A lady does not barge into a prince’s private quarters and throw herself on the bed as if she owns the place.” He countered.
“And a prince does not indulge in group sex with the help.” She shot back as she ignored the fact he was standing in front of her. His chest emblazoned with a gear as he looked down at her. Her beautiful white body sprawled across his bed.
“If you’re here to criticize me, you’re too late.” Chronos said lifting her chin so her blue eyes were focused on him.
“I heard from the guards. They told me your mother dragged you out of bed by your ear and pulled you all the way to your father, but I’m wondering why you’re upset about it. Did mommy give the prince a spanking?” Chronos looked directly into her eyes with a stern gaze.
“What.. do.. you.. want?” He asked in a more commanding tone. She stood up as she placed a hoof on the center of his chest and threw the other around his neck. She could feel his breath as she was close enough to feel him exhale.
“I want a kingdom without equal and a husband to match.” She said breathlessly as she circled the mark on his chest. Chronos smiled for a moment before took a step back breaking her hold and letting her fall on the bed.
“If you wish to share my bed, that’s one thing. My kingdom is another matter entirely.” Chronos said turning back to look out his balcony.
“Hmph! How rude! I’ll have you know I won’t give myself to you like those commoners you kick out of your bed every morning.” She said leaning off the bed. Her mane cascading down like a glistening white waterfall.
“I told you before that it‘s not that simple. I‘m planning something that will affect all of Equestria.”
“Of course, how could I forget your secret plan that involves sleeping with random mares? The one you won‘t tell me about for some reason or other.”
“All in due time, milady.” Chronos said turning back to her with a smile.
“You know I don’t have to put up with this. Stallions and mares have offered me mountains of riches for a moment of my time and I choose to hang around some ungrateful prince who’d rather keep the company of loose mares and withhold information from me.” Chronos walked over to the indignant mare who was looking away with her nose in the air.
“It’s because I intrigue you, my dear. You’re bored with everyone else except me.” He said leaning down and kissing her. It was short and quick catching her completely off guard but not at all unpleasant.
“You perverted prince! Where do you get off kissing a lady without her permission?” Charity said as her cheeks turned pink.
“My sincerest apologies, madam, but I must ask your forgiveness once again.” Chronos said using his magic to push her gently on her back.
“W-What do you think you’re doing, you ruffian?” Charity said as Chronos stood above her. His magic keeping her legs pinned to the mattress.
“You seduced your way past my guards, barged into my room, and insulted me multiple times. I’m afraid it falls to me punish a beautiful deviant such as yourself. What do you have to say for yourself before I deliver my penalty?”
“Come now, your highness? I think this game has gone on long enough.” She said trying not to enjoy the sight of his impressive form standing over her.
“A plea for mercy? Ha! I‘ll show you how I deal with delinquents such as yourself.” Chronos said going straight for her neck.
“Prince Chronos, this is highly ina…Ohhhh!” Charity let out an involuntary moan as he startled to suckle gently on her neck. The mare shifted against her shackles as the his mouth sent shivers of joy up her spine.
“Please, Chronos! If you continue…”
“Oh, but I’ve just begun.” Chronos said deviously as he slid a hoof down her chest. Charity felt his hoof sliding down and smiled.
“Chronos?” She said craning her head upwards to whisper in his ear.
“Yes, my lovely prisoner?”
“Do you really think I’m that easy?” She said as she suddenly disappeared in a flash of light.
“For a second there, I kind of did.” Chronos sighed and looked up to the door where she teleported to.
“I told you before that I’m not one of those commoners you kick out of your bed.”
“Yeah, they actually put out when they jump into my bed.” Chronos told her.
“I’d be more than glad to give myself to you on our honeymoon. In the meantime, you might want to take care of your little ‘problem’.” She said pointing a hoof at his rather large blue erection.
“Someone named Charity ought to be a bit more generous.” Chronos said trying to cover himself.
“And you should know better, my prince. Ta-Ta!” She said twirling a hoof in the air as she bowed. Chronos could only watch as her shining diamond cutie mark flank strolled away.
“No pony likes a tease!” Chronos shouted as he carefully laid on his stiff wings and contemplated the way his morning was going.
“I’ve been dragged out of my bed by the ear like some foal, my parents are forcing me to marry, and I’ve been blue balled by Charity again.” Chronos sighed as he looked at his lonely blue stallion hood with no mare to ride it, “I can’t forget the cold shower I’m going to have to take now.” Chronos said closing his eyes and trying to focus on something else when he heard a shriek at the door.
“I-I am so sorry, your highness! I did not mean to interrupt. The door was open and I assumed it was okay to enter.” An embarrassed white unicorn maid said bowing and blushing profusely. She had a short blond mane that curved just under her ears and was dressed in black dress and white apron typical of her profession. A saddlebag full of fresh sheets on her back.
“Oh, it’s quite alright. Continue with your duties.” Chronos said not bothering to hide himself.
“B-but I’m supposed to clean your room, sire.” She said furtively glancing at his erection.
“Do you need me to move?” He asked enjoying her flustered expression.
“I… ummm… will need to change the bedding, your majesty.” She said trying her best not to stare, but her gaze couldn’t stray far from his royal anatomy.
“Please go right ahead.” Chronos said standing up and moving back from the bed. His erection still standing quite tall.
“Umm… are you sure it’s okay?” She said hesitantly walking into the room.
“Don’t mind me. It should only take a few minutes right.” Chronos smiled.
“Of course! I’ll start right away.” She said as she quickly walked over to the bed and tried to focus on her work. It seem to work as she used her magic to quickly folded and removed the old sheets. She could feel him standing there just watching her. It was kind of creepy but also a little bit arousing. She had heard rumors of the prince’s sexual proclivities, but she never expected to find herself in such an odd situation with him.
As she placed the old sheets in one side and took out the new ones, she wondered if he was going to try to sneak up on her and force himself on her. The idea wasn’t so much scary as exciting. The prince was one of the handsomest stallion in all of Equestria and from what she heard quite capable of handling himself in bed. She turned to look at the prince who was simply standing behind her with that same charming smile and throbbing erection he had when she first entered.
She started to lay out the new sheets taking her time. She was almost done and the prince hadn’t so much as moved. She started to wonder if it was presumptuous of her to expect Chronos to try to attempt something. After all, she was just some plain looking housekeeper and he was one of the most eligible bachelors in the kingdom. Why would he waste his time and energy on her anyway? He wouldn’t have to force himself on her when their were far more attractive mares who would gladly jump at the chance to be in his bed. She felt stupid for even thinking such a thing as she finished setting the new sheets.
“I’m finished, your highness.” She said with a hint of disappointment as she walked towards the door.
“In more ways than one!” Chronos laughed.
“What do you mean, Prince Chronos?” She asked.
“You set this whole thing up, correct?” Chronos said.
“Huh? Wh-what are you talking about your highness?” She said becoming nervous.
“It was pretty clever of you too! Waiting for Purity to get me all worked up then you stroll in and I hop on you to relieve the stress, right?” Chronos said laying it out.
“Th-that’s insane, your highness! How would I know what you and Lady Purity do behind closed doors?”
“First of all, the door is never closed! Purity leaves it open when she comes in and when she leaves. Being a lady of high society, she used to having doors opened and closed for her. She wouldn’t close a door unless it was absolutely necessary. It would be easy for you to listen in on us and find out that she likes to tease me every morning.”
“But wouldn’t she notice me standing outside when she left?”
“She’s a lady of high society, remember? She so used to servants that they practically blend into the background. All you had to do was pretend to be cleaning and you’d be practically invisible to her.” He pointed out.
“That’s an interesting theory, but you have no proof. Where’s your evidence, my prince?” She said smiling a little.
“You know Charity is quite the neat freak. She’d never jump into a bed where three ponies had sex the night before. Yet this morning she came right in and plopped herself right on my bed without any hesitation at all. I wonder why that is?” Chronos mused as it dawned on the maid who looked at the sheets in her bag.
“You don’t mean?”
“That’s right! The sheets you just took off the bed were already clean. You were so busy waiting for me to jump you that you barely noticed. It also raises the question as to why you’re really here. Care to answer?” The maid sighed as she realized there was no way out. She specifically told him that she came to change his sheets which somepony else had already done. If her boss found out, she’d definitely know something was up since this wasn‘t her assigned area. Her fate was in hooves of Prince Chronos.
“Yes, your highness. Everything you say is true. Do with me what you will.” She said bowing deeply.
“Tell me why you did this.” Chronos commanded her.
“I’ve admired you for a long time, sire. It was my hope that I got to be with you just once. If you wish to report me, I’ll gladly accept my punishment.”
“They’ll fire you for this. It’ll also be hard to get work after words get out. It‘s one thing when I go after the servants but to take the initiative is something else entirely. Your life could be ruined after this. What is your name?”
“Clever Clover, your majesty?” She whimpered.
“Named after the unicorn who served Princess Platinum, huh? Hmm, very interesting.” Chronos said wondering if this was what they called destiny.
“Rise.” He ordered her. She stood and look at the prince who had a serious expression on his face. She also noticed that he still had an erection this entire time.
“I don’t think you’ll be working in this castle as a maid any longer.”
“I understand, your highness.” She said as she felt like crying. Her life was over. No one would hire her after this debacle got out.
“With that said, how would you like to be my assistant?” He asked in a more playful tone.
“Huh?” She said wiping a tear from her eye.
“You seem far too smart to be cleaning anyway. Your plan showed a level of cunning and wits unbecoming of a maid, but maybe as my assistant we could put such a mind to uses far more worthy of it’s intelligence. If you accept, that is.”
“Of course, I’d be honored.” She said bowing again.
“Give the courtesies a rest, okay? I feel like I’m talking to the floor sometimes. Are you ready for your first task, Clover?” He asked.
“Yes, your highness!” She said bringing a hoof to her forehead. He sighed as she went from bowing to saluting him. It was hard to get people to act casually around you when you were a prince. Luckily, he had just the task in mind to break her of that habit.
“I was just about to take a shower when you interrupted me. Your first task is to help me relax, understand?” Chronos ordered as he walked towards his private bathroom.
“A shower, your majesty?” Clover said incredulously.
“As you can plainly see, I’m under a lot of stress at the moment. I need somepony to help me relax, but if you’re not up to it….” Chronos said entering his luxurious bathroom.
“I’m more than up for it, your highness.” She smiled as she followed him into the rather large bathing area. The walls were all painted in a light blue color and the floor was made up of white tiles. Everything was spotless and had glistening shine that one could easily see a reflection in. Chronos walked over to an open air shower with a large glass door.
“You should take off those clothes. It’d be a shame if you had to return them and they got wet.” Chronos said turning the gold faucets of the shower.
“I just want to say that this is a real honor, sir. I’ve looked up to you ever since I read your theory on using magic to temporarily affect passage of time. I could tell you really understood the underlying themes of Star Swirl the Bearded in ways no one else could even comprehend. I could hardly believe you wrote in when you were six. Could I ask you a question?”
“Can it wait? This thing is really starting to hurt.” Chronos said as he turned towards her and pointed towards his throbbing hard on.
“Of course, your highness!” She blushed as she walked in to the shower with the alicorn.
“We’re about to have sex. Please just call me Chronos.” He said as he kissed her under the warm spray of the shower this time. Chronos’ impatience and her anticipation of this moment made both of them more than a little eager as they clung to each other. Chronos’ hard blue protrusion being pushed up against her soft white frame as they hugged the other.
“Mmm, you’re a very talented kisser, you highness.” Clover giggled as she pushed her wet mane out of one of her eyes.
“Call me Chronos and you’re not so bad yourself, brown eyes.” Chronos said sliding his hoof over her flank region.
“Thanks! I’m really glad my first kiss went well.” She said placing her hoof on his member and lightly stroking it.
“Wait a second! If that was your first kiss, that means you’re a….”
“Virgin? Technically, my hymen was broken when I was practiced with my first sex toy, but you would be the first pony to be to actually achieve penetration.” She said sitting in front of him and stroking his member with both hooves as the water pelted their naked forms.
“So you got a job at the castle, spied on me, and came up with this elaborate plan all just so I could take your virginity.” Chronos said enjoying her hooves.
“Mm-hmm.” She said as she enveloped his cock in her mouth. Chronos let out a moan as she started to lick and suck his stallionhood. He threw his head back in ecstasy as she started to move her head and he felt her tongue wrapping itself around his muscle.
“I think we’re going to get along just fine, Clover.” Chronos said resting a hoof on her head. He felt her mumble something he assumed was her agreement but all he got was the pleasure of feeling her use her tongue to talk with her mouthful. She slowly removed his cock from her mouth and smiled.
“It’s just an honor to be with someone of your intellect, your highness.” She said rubbing his dripping member.
“You really get off on smarts, huh?” Chronos surmised from the fact that she hadn’t once complimented his physique or appearance.
“The way you caught onto my plan had me so hot. I can’t take it anymore, you mental stud. I need you inside me now!” She said turning around and placing her front hooves on the glass. She started wagging her glimmering, wet flank in front of him.
“How could I resist an invitation like that?” The stallion said eyeing her dripping pink marehood as he put his hooves on her green clover cutie marks. He carefully placed his cock at the entrance of sopping wet pussy and rubbed it carefully. She moaned as she felt his tip playing with her hot hole.
“Please don’t tease me, my prince! Fuck me with your brilliance!” She shouted almost unrecognizable from the maid who timidly changed his sheets and the wet and naked pony who was practically screaming for his cock. He also found it odd for someone who was so clever and fond of genius to grow increasingly incoherent during sex. He had experienced a lot of dirty pillow talk and never recalled a mare who asked to be fucked with his “brilliance”.
“I‘m definitely glad to have an assistant who appreciates my intelligence.” Chronos said as pushed his engorged rod deep inside her tight hole. Clover let out a gasp as she felt his massive member rubbing against her insides.
“Ooohh yeah! Fuck me stupid, you fucking genius.” She cried out in a state of pure animal lust. Chronos got the feeling that she’d be apologizing for some of the things she said once her senses returned, but he decided to give her what she asked for as he pushed the rest of his length into her.
She let out another moan as she pressed her face against the wet glass. The sensation of her body trying to accommodate such a large stallion was amazing. She could feel him hitting her most sensual areas almost spot on accuracy. They had barely just started and the prince had already proven more effective than all her sexual devices combined.
Chronos wasted no time bucking his hips against her wet rump. The feeling of her tight snatch firmly gripping him as he fucked her. Clover could feel her body reverberate every time their body collided with a wet smack. Her mouth hung open as she moaned and panted with every fresh thrust of his magnificent member.
“Prince… fuck …. harder!” Clover eked out in a manner closer to a cave pony talk. If her declining ability to formulate cohesive sentences was any indication, she was quickly approaching orgasm.
Chronos upped his pace exchanging his long thrusts for short quick jabs as he pounded her cunt at a furious pace. Clover howled in ecstasy as the prince relentlessly slammed himself inside of her. Her heart and mind raced as she felt the pressure rising between her legs. She craned her head to the ceiling and shouted as her body reached the heights of sexual pleasure.
“I-I….. Augh!” She cried as her legs quivered from the massive outpouring of juices from her mare parts. Her entire body shuddered as the most incredible orgasm she’d ever experienced nearly caused her to collapse. As her body clenched itself tightly around his member, the prince could no longer hold back as he came deep and hard inside her. Their hot ejaculate mixing as it dripped from her entrance.
“That was amazing, your highness!” Clover said as she caught her breath. The warm water hitting her sore flanks was a welcome feeling. The pain was starting to show itself as the pleasure subsided.
“Call me Chronos and I’m glad you enjoyed it.” Chronos said pulling out as his wings finally relaxed.
“I apologize if I spoke out of turn at any point. I sometimes lose myself when I get excited.” She explained.
“I actually found it quite amusing actually. You’re definitely more animated during sex.” Chronos laughed.
“Whatever do you mean, your majesty?” She asked standing there with a confused expression.
“If I had to describe it, I’d say you’re more… animalistic. You tongue hangs out and you pant like crazy. Your speech devolves into something almost unintelligible. It was quite interesting seeing someone so reserved and smart act so wild.” He mused. Clover looked horrified at his assessment.
“I-I can’t believe I acted so uncouth in front of you. I hope this won’t affect your decision to make me your assistant. I promise to carry myself in a manner more befitting of somepony working under his majesty.” She said bowing in the shower. Chronos lifted her head with one of his hooves and smiled.
“You don’t need to change a thing, Clover. There is no right or wrong way to act during sex. As long as you enjoy yourself, you needn’t worry about how you act in front of me. That’s why I ask you to call me by my name. I don’t want you to focus on the fact that I’m a prince. I just want us to enjoy each other as stallion and mare. Do you understand?” Chronos explained looking her deep brown eyes.
“I understand, your highn… I mean Chronos.” Clover said blushing at such familiarity with a member of royalty.
“Now you sound like my assistant.” Chronos said as he leaned forward to give her a small kiss on the lips. “ Let’s get out of this shower before we get pruny.”
“I just have one last question, Chronos.” She said getting out of the shower and reached for a nearby towel.
“Go ahead.” He told her as she started to dry him off first.
“How’d you know I was using birth control?” She asked lightly pressing the towel against his chest.
“Oh, I was hoping you weren’t.” Chronos said sounding a little depressed. Clover dropped the towel as her answer hit her.
“B-b-but if I wasn’t taking… and you came inside… I-I-I would….”
“You’d be probably be pregnant with my foal. Don’t get me wrong. You’re the first mare I’ve ever came inside. It’s really an honor when you think about it. It’s a shame nothing will come of it, but I’m sure we can try again once the effects of your birth control wear off.” Chronos said levitating the towel off the ground and using it to dry off the stunned mare.
“I-I don’t understand. This is all so much to take in.” She said as he used his magic to wipe down her body.
“So you wouldn’t want to bear my child?” Chronos said looking a little sad.
“N-n-no, it’s not like that. It’s just such a big commitment. I don’t know if I’m ready for marriage. I admire you greatly, but I don‘t know if I‘m in love with you.”
“Who said anything about marriage? I believe you’ve misunderstood my intentions. I don ‘t want to marry you. I‘ve chosen you, Clover.” Chronos said gently rubbing the towel up and down her neck.
“Chosen me?” Clover said confused by his words.
“I believe you hold the exceptional qualities and personality I require of somepony I want to bear my child. I want you to be a part of my legacy, Clover.” Chronos said as he finished drying her tail.
“Legacy?”
“Think about it, Clover. All the other alicorns have something that they’re known for. Cadence has love. Twilight has friendship. My mother has the moon. I always wondered what I would be known for until I realized something.”
“What was that?” Clover asked.
“Clover, I have a penis! Isn‘t that wonderful?” Chronos laughed.
“Umm… You needed to realize that?”
“All the other alicorns are female. I’m the only male alicorn in existence. Only when I realized that fact, did my true purpose reveal itself. I can pass my genetic material to multiple partners in ways that they can’t. That’s why I sleep around. I’m trying to find mares who are worthy of carrying my seed. The next generation of ponies will become my legacy. I will guide them and we will lead Equestria and the rest of the world through a new era of productivity and discovery.” Chronos lifted one of her hooves with his own and held it.
“That’s why I want you to bear my seed, Clover. I believe you’re worthy enough to be part of my legacy.” He said looking into her eyes. She felt like she could melt under his soft green gaze.
“I.. I don’t know. This plan of yours just sounds so…. lofty. And I’ve never given much to being a mother before.” Clover said astonished at the thought that she was even considering this idea. If anyone else had asked, she’d turn them down almost immediately, but Chronos seemed so enthusiastic and passionate about it. It also helped that she believed he was the only male smart enough to actually pull something this crazy off.
“It’s a lot to ask, and if you decide not to do it, you can still be my assistant. I really hope you’ll consider it.” Chronos said looking depressed. Clover almost wanted to say yes just to make him happy but held back against her better judgment. She couldn’t make such a decision so lightly.
“Am I first pony you’ve chosen?” She asked.
“You’re actually the second. I decided on Charity first but I haven‘t told her yet.” Chronos admitted to her chagrin.
“Her! She’s so stuck up and mean! How could you even consider a mare like that? You really shouldn’t waste your time on someone like her. I don’t see what’s so great about her anyway? She‘s so…. disrespectful!”
“Do I detect a hint of resentment?” Chronos said taken aback by her response.
“It’s just… I don’t like mares like her.” Clover admitted.
“Mares like her?” Chronos asked.
“I’d rather not talk about it, okay?” She said looking away. Chronos wanted to talk about her apparent disdain for Charity, but it seemed like a rather sore spot and he didn’t want to force her so soon.
“Sure, but just so you know you wouldn’t have to become the best of friends if you decided to be a part of my legacy.” Chronos informed her.
“Oh.. that’s good. So what do we do now?” She asked.
“I’m glad you asked. I was thinking about your uniform actually.” Chronos said levitating her neatly folded uniform in front of him.
“What’s wrong with it, Chronos?”
“If you’re going to be my assistant, I can’t have you wearing a maid outfit. I was thinking of reworking your outfit a bit,” Chronos said unfolding as he looked it over.
“You know spells for clothes?” She asked amazed by his knowledge.
“A few. I spent sometime around a seamstress and I managed to pick up a few spells. Now let‘s see what I can do.” Chronos said using his magic to undo the threads and break the material down to pieces of cloth. The materials swirled in around in an orbit held together by the purple aura of Chronos’ power. The white apron was reworked in to a professional looking white button down blouse. The black dress was mostly discarded except for a small portion which was remade into a mini skirt.
“Amazing! It’s an entirely different outfit.” Clover said marveling at the incredible display of skill.
“Go on. Try it on.” Chronos said laying the clothes before her. Clover just looked at the clothes then back to Chronos.
“Umm.. Are you just going to stand there?” She asked.
“Is something wrong with me being here?”
“I think it’s just a little awkward to just stand there while I get dressed.” She said blushing.
“You’re kidding, right? We just had sex and you had no problem undressing in front of me then.”
“Actually, your back was turned when I got undressed. Besides, we’re not going to have sex right now so it‘d just be awkward.” She explained. Chronos sighed and decided to give up instead of arguing.
“Fine, I’ll be outside. I have to meet with my friends” Chronos said leaving the bathroom. The door closing as he exited. He sat on the bed and just watched the door.
“So who are your friends?” She asked from behind the door.
“There’s Silver Sword, Red Hot, Strelka, and Pixie Stix. They all work out of this bar I own in Ponyville. It’s called the Happy Hourglass. Have you heard of it?”
“How can you own a bar? You’re only seventeen. The legal drinking age is twenty one.”
“In normal pony years, I’m technically seventeen, but I’m an alicorn. It‘s different.”
“Actually, your long life span actually makes it worse. Technically, your lifespan compared to the average pony would make you about one year old.”
“Technically speaking then, you would have just had hot shower sex with a one year old then.” Chronos said. A moment of silence passed before Clover responded.
“So what kind of bar, is it?”
“It’s a pretty popular place. A lot of young ponies really seem to like it. Maybe your friends have heard of it.”
“Oh yeah, my friends! Of course, I think one of them probably mentioned it.”
“Really? Tell me about your friends. They must be pretty interesting.” Chronos didn’t get a reply back which was strange.
“Clover?” He called out again.
“I’m done.” She said emerging from the bathroom in her new outfit. Her clothes weren’t the only thing to change. She also put her hair up in a neat little bun. She looked every bit the position Chronos had envisioned for her. “Well, how do I look?” She asked.
“You look great, Clover. I especially like the skirt. Could you turn around for a second?” Clover did a little half turn in front of him.
“I actually wanted to talk to you about the skirt. It’s a bit short and a little tight, don’t you think?” She said wiggling her backside in front of him. Chronos walked up behind her. His gaze fixed firmly on her backside.
“What are you talking about? It’s perfect. As a matter of fact,” Chronos put a hoof on her backside startling her.
“Your highness! What are you doing?” Clover said jumping away from him and turning around.
“I’m thinking about what it would be like to go at it in that outfit. What do you say?” Chronos said walking towards her, but Clover wasn’t going to have it.
“Sir, did you hire me just to have sex with me?” She asked angrily.
“No, but I did hire you to help me with my daily affairs. Speaking of affairs,” Chronos reached out a hoof only to have it smacked away.
“Hold it right there! I did not take this job just to be your plaything. Didn’t you say we were supposed to meet your friends?” She said in a tone that reminded him of his mother when she caught him in bed this morning.
“I’m always a few hours late. They usually understand.” Chronos said trying to make some sort of physical contact but Clover would block his hoof or dodge before he could get close.
“We’re late! We shouldn’t keep your friends waiting then! As your assistant, it’s my job to make sure you’re on time for all your appointments.”
“As my assistant, it’s your job to make me happy so let’s do it already.” Chronos whined.
“That comes second. After I find a few moments in your schedule, I might be able to set aside some playtime but for now we should really get going.”
“You don’t know my schedule.” Chronos pointed out.
“I know we’re supposed to meet your friends right now.” She shot back. The two of them glared at each other for a moment. The stalemate lasted all of thirty seconds before Chronos gave in. He couldn’t find any real fault with her taking her duties seriously and he really should‘ve met up with his friends by now.
“Fine, I get it. Let’s go.” Chronos sighed in defeat. He was starting to have reservations about this whole assistant thing. If he wanted someone to nag him, he’d just hang with his mother.

Chronos’ Sexual Revolution
The Stallion Who Would Be Married
Luna sighed as she cuddled her lover. She always enjoyed a postcoital embrace with her hot blooded lover. She was always naturally cold so having someone like Spike to be close was always comforting. Unfortunately, she couldn’t enjoy it as much today because of what happened earlier. She didn’t want to force Chronos to marry, but she couldn’t think of any other way to keep him from sleeping around.
“What’s wrong, Luna?” Spike said pulling her close. He knew what was wrong though. It was Chronos. The stallion was on his mind as well.
“I just wonder if this arranged marriage is the best thing for Chronos. He seemed so upset when we told him.”
“We’ve tried everything to get him to shape up. You shouldn’t feel bad that it’s come to this.”
“But we’re his parents, Spike. Aren’t we supposed to have raised him not to do this sort of thing? If I’d have done something different during his childhood, he wouldn’t need to sleep with so many mares, right? If I had hugged him more as a colt and showed him more affection-” Spike put a finger to her lips.
“Do you remember that time you were walking through the castle garden with Chronos and he fell?
“Of course, I do. I’ll never forget it. He was such a cute little foal back then.”
“You not only kissed it and put a bandaid on it. You picked him up and cradled him as you flew him back to his crib. Then you waited for him to wake up because you wanted him to know he wasn’t alone in his time of need. I don‘t ever want you to question the fact that you‘re a great mother.” Spike told her. Sometimes he thought she was a bit overzealous in her role as mother but he knew how much this meant to her so it was understandable that she’d be so protective of him.
“I guess you have a point.” Luna said snuggling closer.
“Considering the circumstances, I think we did the best we could. It’s not like there’s a book on raising alicorns.”
“I suppose. It certainly was a surprise the day he was born. I remember the look on your face when he was born.” Luna smiled.
“In my defense, you told me that an alicorn was impossible.”
“I told you it was highly improbable, but our union was unique so every possibility had to be considered no matter how unlikely.” She said twirling her hoof on his chest. Spike lifted his claw and looked at his palm.
“I remember when the doctor gave him to me. He was barely bigger than my claw and light as a feather, but it felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders at that moment.” Spike said remembering holding his foal for the very first time.
“I felt it too. The immense responsibility that came with his birth, but I also knew that you’d be there with me the entire time. That’s why it’s important he has a mare by his side who can guide him down the right path. He needs someone to be there for him when he ascends the throne.”
“Do you have somepony in mind?”
“What about Charity? We know she comes from a great family and she‘s almost as generous as her mother. Her benefits have helped eased the plight of many ponies throughout Canterlot. I feel that she‘d make an ideal for our son, wouldn‘t you agree?”
“I don’t know. Every time I look at her I get the feeling she’s not being as generous as she let’s on.” Spike said putting his claws behind his head.
“What do you mean?”
“It’s like she gives only because it’s a mean to an end. When her mother was generous, it was because she truly wanted to be. I don’t get that vibe from her.”
“I really had my heart set on Charity too.” Luna sighed.
“Really?”
“Of course, she’s practically been bred to be a princess. She’s graceful, beautiful, and most importantly, a virgin.”
“A virgin? Is that really important?”
“I want my son to have a virgin bride. As a matter of fact, I think anypony who expects to marry my son should at least be pure.”
“Considering how many mares our son sleeps with, I don’t think it’s fair to demand a virgin.”
“Our son is a prince and the most eligible bachelor in the land. I don’t think asking for a mare who has saved herself for the right stallion is asking much at all. It also shows restraint and good judgement.”
“Is it really that important?”
“It’s actually just one of many qualities I expect Chronos’ bride to carry.” Luna said summoning a scroll out of the air for Spike to read. He watched as the extremely long document rolled down the bed and all the way to the other side of the room.
“You’ve really given this some thought, huh?” Spike said looking over the exhaustive and detailed list.
“Of course! I refuse to give my son to anyone who doesn’t meet my strict standards.”
“Some of these are pretty ridiculous, Luna.”
“What do you mean?”
“Unicorns can’t have their horns to pointy.”
“What if she pokes his eye out during a kiss?”
“A pegasus can’t have a wingspan that’s too wide.”
“I don’t want someone smacking my son in the face every time she tries to fly.”
“What about this one? A crystal pony cannot shine too brightly.”
“If the sun hits them, he could be blinded.” Luna explained.
“What about this one?” Spike said tapping the list. “ Earth ponies can’t be too strong.”
“He’s sensitive, you know that!” Luna huffed.
“Our son has the libido of a rabbit, Luna. We went on vacation to Apploosa last year and all he did was practice his ‘bareback riding’ with the local mares. The chances of any earth pony actually hurting him are ridiculously slim.”
“I’m just being careful.”
“Luna, he’s not a foal anymore. You can‘t treat him like a two year old forever.”
“He will always be my baby! How can you even say something like that?”
“Luna, he’s his own stallion. You can’t protect him from the world by picking his bride. We‘ve been over this before. He’s not going to be your baby forever. You have to let him go at some point and if he gets married, it‘s going to be sooner rather than later.” Spike leveled with her. He doubted Chronos’ new bride would appreciate a mother in law hovering over him like a hawk.
“You’re right about one thing, Spike. I can’t watch over him.” Luna smiled.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Spike asked.
“Oh nothing, I was just agreeing with you!” Luna chimed innocently avoiding his gaze. She couldn’t let on about her true intentions for the arranged marriage or Spike would almost certainly ruin her plan.
“Anyway… I think we should trim down this list. I’ll give you the virgin thing but instead of making it a requirement let’s just say preferred, hmm?”
“If by preferred, you mean you’ll give them a chance while I sit there silently judging them. Fine!” Spike just sighed as Luna broke their embrace and got up. He had just agreed to this arranged marriage and he was already regretting his decision. Unknown to the couple, a delicate, white ear was pressed against the door listening to their entire conversation.
Meanwhile in Ponyville
“This is the Happy Hourglass.” Clover said unable to hide her disappointment. It was a rundown, wooden, white rectangle of a building. The outside was completely undecorated except for a neon blue and green sign with the name of the establishment. When she imagined the prince owning a bar, she was expecting something more elaborate.
“I know it’s not much, but it has a rustic charm to it.”
“And you say this place is popular?”
“Well, it has a different feel to it at night. You’ll see. Let’s head inside.” Chronos said opening one of the double doors for her. She walked inside and found the interior to be tight and constraining. The bar was almost equal in size to the sitting area where a sparse number of booth lined the walls, along with a number of wooden chairs and tables. The only bright spot was the dance floor and stage area were made of polished wood. The lights above them were off, but the effect they had on the dance floor must have been magnificent.
“We’re closed!” A brusque voice called out from a door next to the bar. A hulking red earth pony burst through the door looking around and spotting Clover. As he stepped towards her, he knocked tables and chairs aside as if they were nothing before stopping in front of her. His eyes were obscured by his brown bowl haircut, but his expression was clearly one of frustration and anger. Clover shook with fear as the mass of twitching muscle and fury stood over her .
“Down, boy! She’s with me.” Chronos called out.
“PC? You’re early? I mean for you anyway.” The stallion walked over to Chronos and grabbed him in a bear hug.
“It’s nice to see you too, big guy.” Chronos said as he felt him squeeze the air from his body. He looked over to his assistant who was standing stock still where she had been confronted. “Clover?”
“Aww, I’m really sorry about scaring your friend. You know how desperate these mares get when it comes to meeting you. You got to get mean or they don‘t take the hint.” He explained. Chronos walked over to the pale mare who was still shaking in her tight black skirt. He put a leg around her neck which calmed her a little bit.
“Clever Clover, this is Red Hot. One of my best friends and bouncer of The Happy Hourglass. Despite his rather intimidating exterior, he’s really quite the softy when you get to know him.”
“It’s nice to meet you. Sorry about earlier, CeeCee. I got a little carried away.”
“CeeCee?” She said relaxing slightly.
“He likes to give people nicknames. It’s hit and miss sometimes but always endearing.”
“What do you mean ‘hit and miss’?” The stallion said jumping in the prince’s face.
“He also has a bit of a temper.”
“Temper! I‘ll snap you like a twig!” He shouted as he shook with rage. Clover retreated behind Chronos who didn’t seem to least be scared of angry behemoth who made look like him a toothpick with wings.
“Breathe, buddy. Remember your exercises.” Chronos told him. The lumbering stallion stepped back and took a few deep breaths.
“Ten, nine, eight…. I’m on a calm, sunny beach. Whew! I think I’m good. Sorry, I blew up at you, PC.” He chuckled as if he hadn’t just made a serious threat against a member of royalty.
“Chronos, I think we should leave. It’s not safe here.” Clover whispered carefully.
“Where’s Silvie?” He asked.
“He’s in the back crunching numbers. I’ll get him.” Red said heading back through the door behind the bar. Clover decided now was the best time to get the prince out of here before anymore dangerous lunatics came out.
“We should get out of here while he’s gone. Come on, Chronos.” She said pulling him away.
“Did you forget that I own this place and everyone here is my friend?” Chronos told as he refused to budge.
“That brute just threatened your life. I‘d hardly call him friendly.”
“You do know I’m an alicorn, right? Besides, he threatens a lot of people and nothing happens… most of the time anyway.” Clover was about to continue when Red came out with a bunch of new ponies in tow.
“You!” A silver pegasus stallion with dark blue glasses said glaring at him. His mane was brown and spiky
“Silvie, how are you? You’re looking chipper as ever.” Chronos beamed.
“If it isn’t the worthless waste of dragon semen, I see you brought a new whore with you to guzzle our profits. It‘s bad enough you dragged those other two floozies here, who drank our finest liqueur absolutely free of charge. You have the nerve to bring another one.” He quickly turned his attention to Clover as he adjusted the edge of his glasses. “Hmph, a little on the plain side. Did you lower your standards or were you just desperate enough to grab the closest thing with a vagina?”
“Back off, Silver Sword! At least, she‘s not a bitter virgin.” The pegasus with red fur and amber eyes said standing up for Clover.
“Strelka, you really are something else. Considering your predilection for our whoremonger of a prince, why would you ever stand up for one of his playthings?” He said adjusting his glasses again as he stared at the mare with the long blue mane that covered the side of her head and went down her neck.
“Big brother, Silvie’s being a jerk again. Make him stop!” The mare standing beside Strelka pleaded in a sweet, cute voice. The unicorn had a mane of red and white that swirled seamlessly down her neck into two ponytails on different sides of her neck. One was red and the other white. Her fur was a shade of light pink.
“I don’t know, Pix. He’s always like that. You know how he is.” Red chuckled nervously. The mare expression went from friendly and innocent to sinister in a heartbeat as she locked her soft, pink eyes on him.
“I’m not asking anymore, big brother!” She said in the same sugary tone as before but Red knew better than to treat it as a suggestion again. He walked over to Silver Sword and immediately wrapped him in a headlock.
“What are you doing, you lummox? Release me at once!” The much smaller pegasus said flapping and struggling against his aggressor.
“Lay off and I’ll let you go, Silvie!” He said increasing the pressure around his neck.
“Red! As your employer and oldest friend, I’m ordering you to release me this instant.” He said in a strained voice.
Clover watched this scene in complete bewilderment. She could hardly believe the ponies arguing and bickering amongst each other right now were the prince’s friends. She didn’t know what to expect, but between the threats of physical violence and harsh insults, she didn’t know what to make of the group.
“Alright, guys. Settle down. I want to introduce you guys to Clover. She‘s different from anypony I‘ve ever brought to the bar.” Everyone stopped fighting and looked at him before turning their attention to the mare beside him.
“Really?” They all shouted.
“I even popped the question. She hasn’t given me an answer, but I think she’s going to say yes.” He said pulling her close to him.
“You did?” They all said in disbelief.
“I’m still deciding though. It’s such a huge, life altering choice after all.”
“So you’re really serious about this?” Strelka asked him.
“Of course, I am. I’ve been planning this for a long time. You guys know that this means everything to me.” Chronos said.
“Wait a second! You’ve been planning to get married?” Silver Sword asked.
“Marriage? Who said anything about getting hitched? Honestly, you guys sound like my parents.”
“Uhh… Aren’t you two tying the knot, PC?” Red scratched his head in confusion.
“No, why would I ever get married?” Chronos told him.
“Oh, thank Celestia!” Strelka sighed in relief.
“I just want to impregnate her.” Strelka nearly fell over before Pixie could catch her.
“Have you completely flipped your gourd, Chronos? I ought to beat you senseless for scaring her like that?” Pixie barked at him.
“What are you talking about? I’ve told you all about this before. Remember when I brought Charity here?”
“How could I forget the most perfect mare in existence gracing my bar with her presence?” Silver Sword sighed as a smile crossed his face.
“Perfect? You’re kidding me, right? All she did was criticize and complain about everything and everyone. I was two seconds away from knocking her block off from the moment she stepped through the door. I almost went after her myself after what she did to Chronos.” Pixie interjected.
“You would have done no such thing!” Silver and Pixie Stix just glared at each other for a moment.
“Hmph! Your taste in mares is as bad as ever.” Pixie said before she returned her attention to Strelka.
“Yeah, she poured an entire bottle of Apple Family Cider on your lap. What a waste!” Red sighed.
“You guys aren’t remembering the important part. Pixie asked me why I put up with her and I told you all about my plan, remember?”
“Oh yeah, I remember now! You wanted to make a bunch of super foals or something. We assumed you were just rambling, PC.”
“Well, I was serious. I’ve selected Clover and Charity for that purpose.”
“You can spread your vile DNA as much as you want, but don’t you dare taint my precious Charity.” Silver Sword proclaimed.
“You know she doesn’t even know your real name. She called you Silver Spear all night, remember?” Pixie scoffed.
“I found the term endearing. It was kind of like a nickname.”
“You‘re such an idiot.” The unicorn said shaking her head.
“So you plan on having PC’s kid, CeeCee?” Red asked.
“I am considering it.” Clover admitted.
“And what exactly do you hope to gain from such a relationship? You clearly wouldn‘t agree to this unless you got something out of it. What did he offer you?” Sliver Sword asked
“He promised me anything I could want, but I’m not going to do it for personal gain. I want to do it because I believe in the future he hopes to create.”
“Well put, Clover. That’s exactly why I chose you. She’s intelligent, yet selfless enough to do it for all the right reasons. One of the many traits I hope to pass on with my plan.”
“What traits do you hope to pass on with Charity? I don’t think the future needs anymore stuck up rich bitches.” Pixie commented.
“You really should curse, Pix. It’s unladylike.” Red cautioned her.
“Really, big brother? Where do you get off lecturing me?” She said in that super cutesy tone that seemed to terrify him.
“Hmph! If you behaved more like Charity, you might be able to keep a boyfriend without scaring him off.” Silver Sword pointed out as he adjusted his glasses. He suddenly felt one of his wings being tweaked.
“You really ought to be more careful, Silvie.” Pixie giggled as the glow in her horn disappeared.
“Ow! You did that on purpose.” He said rubbing the affected area.
“Charity has a strong personality, but she’s also incredibly generous. I feel she has much to offer.” Chronos pointed out.
“I doubt your parents are thrilled about this.” Strelka said recovering from her shock.
“My parents don’t know about this.”
“What about your dad? He always manages to uncover your little schemes.” Silver Sword pointed out.
“He’s the least of my worries. It’s my mother we have to worry about. She finally got my father’s consent and they’re going to arrange a marriage for me.”
“An arranged marriage!” Strelka shouted.
“Yep! A month from now there’ll be a huge competition to decide which mare will be my bride.”
“B-but what about your plan?” Clover asked.
“I’m afraid it’ll be over if I get married. That‘s why I‘m here I need you guys to help me find a way out of this.” Silver Sword just laughed at his plight.
“Hmph! I think it’s a great idea. A lecher like you getting married sounds absolutely fantastic. I feel sorry for the unlucky-”
“Pixie!” Strelka shouted.
“Aahh!” Silver Sword shouted as he felt his other wing being twisted unnaturally. He went down reaching for his sore appendage.
“I told you to be more careful, Silvie.” Pixie said innocently whistling.
“So.. much … hate!” Silver Sword growled at her.
“I don’t know about this, PC. Your parents are pretty smart. It’s not going to be easy to stop them from doing something.”
“What if we didn’t stop them?” Clover suggested to everypony’s surprise.
“What are you talking about?” Chronos asked.
“If you think about it, this could be an amazing opportunity. Hundreds of mares from all over Equestria will be gathered in one spot. It would probably be your best chance to choose more suitable partners for your legacy.”
“There’s only one problem though. They’re going to be there to marry him. No one’s going to go for his scheme if they got a shot at marrying him.” Red pointed out.
“I think she’s onto something, Red. All we have to do is wait till they lose that chance.” Chronos added.
“What are you talking about Chronos?” Pixie asked.
“My mother is extremely overprotective. She won’t just let anypony marry me and that means once she decides they’re not right for me….”
“They’ll be ripe for you to swoop in. Once they realize they don’t have any chance of marrying you, it’ll be easy to convince them to join you.” Pixie finished his statement.
“You forgot one little detail, your highness.” Silver Sword said struggling to his hooves, despite his wings being in an extreme amount of pain.
“What’s that?” Pixie asked threateningly. Silver Sword just chuckled at her.
“Somepony’s got to win. You’re going to get married and no matter how many mares you convince they’ll all desert you, even Strelka will have to give up.”
“Shut up!” Pixie said using her magic to yank both his wings.
“Ow! Hey, the pain is gone.” He said flapping a bit.
“I relocated them. If you want me to undo it, keep talking.”
“He’s right. Unless we make sure no one wins, it won’t work.” Clover sighed.
“What if you won, Clover?” Chronos said catching her off guard.
“Huh? W-what are you implying?”
“I’m thinking if the winner was in on it. It would let the mares who join us now that I’m in full control of the situation. In addition to that, you could delay the wedding indefinitely allowing me to stay single. It‘s perfect!”
“You said you weren’t going to marry her!” Strelka stomped her hoof.
“I’m not, but as long as my parents think I am, it’ll leave me free to do as I wish without their interference.”
“I don’t know, Chronos. You’re asking me to lie to Princess Luna and Sir Spike. I don’t know if I can do that.”
“She’s right, PC. Your dad is pretty quick. He always knows what anybody’s up to. He‘s got those crazy eyes?” Red reminded him.
“He‘s going to look into Clover‘s eyes and the game is up.” Pixie sighed.
“So it’s true? That Sir Spike can read minds and that’s how he won Princess Luna’s heart.” Clover said. Everyone just looked at her as if she were nuts.
“That’s so stupid I’m not even going to dignify it with an insult.” Silver Sword told her.
“Give her a break, guys! She doesn‘t know. It’s less psychic powers and more learning to read body movements and subtle tells. He doesn’t read minds, Clover. He reads bodies.” Chronos explained.
“Are you sure?” Clover asked.
“Of course, I am. You have to admit it’s more believable than mind reading. The old dragon is clever, but he can no more read minds than you or I.” The prince laughed.
“So how you going to trick him?” Red asked. Chronos just chuckled.
“It’s quite simple, Red. We need to make Clover believe the lie.”
“Believe the lie?” The brawny stallion said scratching his head.
“If Clover believes the lie unconditionally, her body won’t show any tells and my father will trust every word she says and if my father believes it, my mother will too.”
“Wait a minute! How do you feel about Chronos, Clover?” Strelka asked.
“I guess I look up to him and I’m certainly attracted to him. I wouldn’t exactly say I love him though.” She admitted.
“Have you ever been in love with anyone?” Pixie asked.
“I can’t say I have. I wouldn‘t even know what it‘s like.”
“It’s like every time you’re around him your heart beats faster and even though he says stupid, hurtful things all the time you know it comes from a good place. He lashes out because he doesn’t hide his feelings and you respect that so much.” Pixie said describing the feeling as best she could.
“Whoa! Sounds like your sister is going to scare another loser, Red.” Silver laughed until he felt both his wings being yanked out of place.
“You’re right about the loser part!” She told him as he writhed on the floor in agony.
“Why does it have to be her? I could do it.” Strelka volunteered. “I already have feelings for you so it would be easier for me.” Chronos thought about it as he looked at her.
“Hmm… I don’t think so. You’re too close to me. Your emotions would get the better of you in a high pressure situation. Clover has the ability to remain cold and detached. My parents don’t know her either so she’s a total unknown. I can work with that.”
“Fine! Do whatever you want!” Strelka said pushing her way past him as she left.
“Wait, Strelka!” Pixie said giving the prince a dirty look as she chased after her.
“Back to the matter at hoof, how do you propose to make Clover fall in love with you? She doesn’t even know if she wants to have your foal? At this rate, you might as well actually marry her.” Silver Sword joked.
“Don’t confuse the issue, Silvie. The matter of protecting my legacy comes first, even before the legacy itself. You do present an interesting question though. Is possible to create true love or something similar in another pony? The good news is there’s a spell that comes to mind.” Chronos sighed as he realized who he had to go through to get it. “The bad news is it belongs to Twilight Sparkle.”
“You mean Princess Twilight? She‘s my idol.” Clover said trying to suppress her inner fanfilly.
“That’s nice for you, but our dear prince has a rather tumultuous history with the Princess of Friendship.” Silver Sword pointed out.
“What do you mean?” Clover asked.
“She was my old magic teacher. Suffice it to say, I didn’t graduate because of…. philosophical differences.”
“But I thought you said you didn’t graduate because you were smarter than her, PC.” Red remembered.
“What!” Clover said staring at Chronos intensely.
“You don’t understand, Clover. Her entire curriculum was a joke. Her style of teaching wasn’t the least bit challenging. It was borderline insulting!”
“Hmph! If you want my help, you’re going to apologize!” Clover demanded.
“You can’t be serious!”
“If you don’t agree, I’m gone and you can find somepony else.”
Chronos thought about it for a moment and realized there was no one else. He had asked a lot of his new assistant and finding another mare would be nigh impossible. This plain little mare who was no more than a maid had become absolutely indispensable.
“Very well, Clover! I’ll apologize on one condition.”
“My agreement to your legacy, I assume?”
“And the plan to protect it as well. I’m putting my pride on the line by apologizing to her. I doubt she’ll even accept it. We didn’t part ways on the best terms.” Clover took her time as she considered his offer.
“You understand what he’s asking right? He’s not only asking you to go along with an insane plan to get out of marriage, but he also wants you to bear his children. Is an apology over a matter that doesn’t concern you really worth that much to you?” Silver Sword asked.
“I’ll agree to your terms, Chronos, but I have another condition. Princess Twilight must accept your apology!”
“Are you sure, Clover? Any objections after this will be meaningless. Wherever I lead us, you will be honor bound to follow.”
“Then I leave my fate in your hooves, your highness.” She said bowing before him.
“I should let you know that from here on out things get serious.” Chronos smiled deviously.

Clover felt a rush of excitement sweep over her as she stood outside the home of her mentor. She thought about how many times she stood outside this castle just to get a glimpse of her as she left. Now she was actually going to meet the mare who was her greatest role model and inspiration. As she took a step forward, the guards blocked her path.
“Hold it! None may enter unless they have official business with Princess Twilight Sparkle.” The guard barked in his purple armor bearing Twilight’s mark. Fortunately, she wasn’t alone.
“She’s with me, my good stallions.” He announced, but the guards remained resolute.
“I’m sorry, your highness. The princess has forbidden you from entering the palace unless accompanied by your mother or father, sir.”
“I see. Well, I’m ordering you to stand down and let Clover pass.”
“W-what?” The guards said.
“B-but I can’t go without you. W-what am I supposed to say? What am I supposed to do?” The stallion put a hoof on her shoulder to calm her down.
“I can’t enter, but you can. Tell her Prince Chronos is here to apologize and he needs permission to enter. She‘ll know what to do.”
“Can’t you just teleport in though?”
“She won’t accept my apology if I enter against her wishes. A little diplomacy goes a long way in these situations. Trust me on this one.” He said giving her a quick hug.
“I guess.” She said still a bit unnerved.
“You‘re going to be fine. Relax, okay?”
“Okay, here I go.” She said as the guards let her pass. Chronos watched as the mare slowly marched into the castle. As Chronos stood their waiting for her to return, he noticed one of the guards giving him a dirty look.
“Have we met?” He asked the soldier.
“No, sir, but my sister did. She cried for weeks when you up and left.” The guard’s tone was professional, but there was a bitter edge to it that was clear as day.
“Oh, how is she?” Chronos asked nervously. The guard didn’t answer, instead growled and mumbling something that the prince could assume was a nasty remark as he returned to his post and stared outward with the same neutral expression all guards had. It didn’t decrease the tension as he waited anxiously for Clover to return.
Meanwhile
Two mares sat in a bedroom marked with mirrors against each wall. Posters lined the space each one depicting the same mare in a different pose. It was more like a shrine than a bedroom. The pegasus sat on the bed playing with her light green hummingbird, Mr. Tweeter. Despite her friend’s extreme vanity, she always admired her confidence and poise she carried.
“Wow, Charity! So Princess Luna and Sir Spike are going to pick a bride for the prince?”
“Yes, Melody, and I’m practically a shoo in. Princess Luna has already spoken quite highly of me.” The unicorn said as she brushed her mane in a front of one of the many mirrors in her room.
“What about Sir Spike?” She asked. Charity turned and gave the purple mare an icy glare. She instantly knew that she had crossed a line in even asking the question. Charity could never sway Spike completely and it bothered her to no end. “I’m so sorry, Charity.” She apologized as she and Mr. Tweeter bowed their heads.
“It’s strange, but he hasn’t come around yet.” Charity said resuming her brush strokes. Melody sighed as Charity moved on. The mare knew her friend was prone to being extremely temperamental.
“I’m sure he’ll come around. No one can resist your charms. Isn‘t that right, Tweetums?” The bird chirped in agreement as it rested on Melody’s on top of her soft, light yellow mane which she kept up in one big ponytail.
“I’ve tried everything though. I even created that dreadful fundraiser for Dragons without Hordes.”
` “It’s not your fault they ransacked the event. Who knew dragons were so greedy?”
“No, I need a different approach.” The mare said racking her pretty little brain. She wasn’t used to putting this much effort into charming someone. A wink and a smile usually had stallions and mares wrapped around her perfectly manicured hooves. If that failed and it rarely did, she could always use her parent’s great wealth and power to persuade others to give her what she wanted. Spike was immune to both these weapons. He didn’t buy into her charms and he was far above her in terms of social status. She needed to try something else.
“I have an idea, but you definitely won’t like it.”
“Well, it’s only a rumor, but I heard that Spike had the biggest crush on you know who a long time ago. Maybe if you asked her she could give you some tips.” The suggestion made the unicorn ceased grooming her long white mane and sighed. The pegasus knew that sigh all too well. It was a gesture that sent chills down the spines of all who recognized it.
The first time it was heard was at a benefit for orphan foals. A rich well known businesspony made a casual comment about how Charity looked like her mother. It was in no way an insult but it didn’t stop her from taking it personally. The mare just smiled and remained the gracious host throughout the entire party. Everyone remembered the uncharacteristic sigh she gave after the comment though.
The next day the stallion found that several of his backers had been persuaded to back out. When he tried to secure a loan to make up the difference, he was denied for seemingly no reason. As the days wore on, his business grew worse and worse. Eventually, it affected his family life and his wife had taken the foals to go live with her mother. He was at his lowest point when Charity stopped by to check on him. She asked him if there was anything she could do to help him. He only said one thing.
“No, milady. The act of gazing on your unparallel grace and beauty is enough to lift my spirits.” He said kissing her hoof. She merely smiled and left. As if by magic, his entire life turned around. His backers returned with open wallets. The bank offered him a interest free loan, and his family returned again. From that day onward, no one ever made any mention of Charity’s resemblance to her mother in her presence.
“Melody? Are you suggesting what I think you’re suggesting?” Her tone was calm, but the mare may as well have been shouting. The effect it had on Melody would be no more terrifying. Mr. Tweeter jumped into her ponytail and hid in Melody’s pink scrunchie as she tried to explain herself.
“I-I-If Spike really did have a crush on your mother, then it only stands to reason that she would know what he likes.” Charity had gotten up and walked over to Melody with an almost welcoming expression as she hovered over her.
“Hmmm, I suppose you have a point. There’s just one itsy, bitsy concern that I’d like to address. You do know how I feel about my mother?” Melody just nodded unable produce any sound at all.
“It’s just that I’d sooner let some whore off the street take what’s rightfully mine before I ask my mother for help, and if you ever suggest that I’d ever do such a thing again, I’d be quite displeased with you. Understood?”
“Yes, ma’am!” She squeaked.
“I mean it. I won’t hesitate to destroy you because you’re my best friend.” Her tone was dead serious. There was no kindness or smile this time. Just a cold, hard look that sent shivers down Melody’s spine.
“I’m so sorry, Charity! Please forgive me!” She said bowing her head.
“Oh, dear! It’s water under the bridge.” She said smiling once again. Mr. Tweeter crawled out of his hiding place and jumped on the Melody’s ear. As he began chirping something in her ear, Melody suddenly smiled.
“Oh, Mr. Tweeter! That’s an excellent idea!” She said perking back up.
“Another idea? I certainly hope it’s better than your last.”
“What if you demonstrated how great a wife you would be to Spike? He’d have no choice but to accept you then.”
“Why that’s a wonderful idea, Mr. Tweeter! I’ve been showing to my attributes as a mare of high society, but if I show him what I have to offer as a partner to Chronos, he’d have no choice but to accept me.” Her joy was cut short as she realized that she had no idea what qualities a wife should have. She always pictured herself as more of a princess than a wife. A leader standing next to her handsome prince as they ruled together.
“Tell me, Melody. What exactly does a wife do exactly?”
“She cooks, cleans, tends to the sick, and basically makes sure everyone’s happy.”
“You’re talking about a servant. I need to know what a wife does.”
“That is what a wife does. At least, that‘s what my mom does.”
“Well, that sounds dreadful. I can‘t imagine why anyone would willing accept such a position.” Charity grimaced. It was probably a thing specific to commoners, but wasn’t Sir Spike a commoner before he married Luna? If that is what he truly looked for in a mare, she’d have to at least try.
“If it is the only way to get Sir Spike to choose me, I don’t have a choice. You will teach me how to act like the wife of a commoner.”
At Twilight’s Castle
Clover walked into the throne room and was treated to walls lined with stained glass windows. Each one featuring a different person. There was one for each of the Elements of Harmony, Spike, Prince Shining Armor, and all the other alicorn princesses. Clover could tell each person meant a lot to her. She noticed one had huge curtain draped over it.
“Hmm…. It looks like it finished. I wonder who it is?”
“Don’t touch that. Princess Twilight is particularly sensitive about that one.” A voice called out. Clover saw a dark blue crystal pony with bright pink eyes enter the room. She had a pair of black rimmed glasses and her mane done in a black bun. Her cutie mark was an open book.
“What exactly is your business here? Princess Twilight doesn’t have any appointments today. If you want an audience with her, you’ll have to schedule one. The latest I could pencil you in is five months from now.” She said with practiced professionalism.
“A-Actually, I’m here on behalf of Prince Chronos. He sent me.” Clover told her. The mare raised an eyebrow at the statement.
“Really? If I recall, his last visit ended with him saying some very nasty things about Princess Twilight and claiming how much he never wanted to return again. If you‘re going to lie, I‘d at least appreciate a believable one. Guards!” She shouted as she turned away. Two guards flew in and landed at her side in an instant.
“Yes, ma’am!” They said signaling their readiness by saluting.
“Show this mare out. Her ‘business’ with Princess Twilight has concluded.” She said walking away. The two guards were about to grab the mare when she decided to try and reason with her one more time.
“W-Wait! Chronos is right outside the castle gates. He sent me in because they wouldn’t allow him on the premises. He‘s here to apologize to Princess Twilight!” The guards grabbed her and began to pull her to the door.
“Hmph! You should really work on your lies.”
“Paige, I heard shouting. What’s going on here?” Clover instantly recognized the voice as she heard it many times growing up. This time she wasn’t on stage making a speech or on a balcony addressing crowds of cheering ponies. She was in the same room as her. The regal purple mare stood their in all her excellence and glory.
“Princess Twilight! I was just escorting this intruder out. It’s nothing you need concern yourself with.” Paige said bowing before her. The princess looked over to Clover who felt as if her heart would jump out of her chest at any moment.
“Hmm, she doesn’t look like she means any harm. Why is she here?”
“She claims to have come here for Prince Chronos. Apparently, he wishes to apologize to you and is waiting for you right outside the castle. An obvious lie considering how things went last time he was here.”
“It should be easy enough to check then. You two go check the entrance and see if our guest is really here. I think I would like talk to this mare a bit.” The guards released the mare as the princess continued to take stock of her.
“You can’t be serious about entertaining her, your highness. She obviously lied to get in here. If you give her anymore time, what’s to stop any other pony from strolling off the street and doing the same? It‘ll reek havoc on your schedule.”
“I finished my studies early. Besides, I’m always happy to speak with my subjects. What’s your
“I’m… uhh… My name is….” The mare was so nervous she could hardly recall her own name let alone speak. She found herself wishing Chronos was here so she wouldn’t be alone. He’d be able to introduce her and break the ice a little.
“The princess doesn‘t have all day. Speak up!” Paige said becoming fed up with her stumbling.
“C-Clever Clover!” She managed to eke out.
“It seems you’re a bit nervous, Clover. Could you get us a bit of tea, Miss Turner?” The crystal pony was about to raise an objection but then thought better of it.
“As you wish, your highness.” She said bowing deeply before leaving.
“I apologize for my assistant. She can be a bit high strung at times.”
“It’s no problem at all, your highness.” Clover said lowering her head.
“So how do you know the young prince?” She asked.
“I’m actually his new assistant.”
“Interesting, I didn’t know he was even looking for one.”
“I didn’t either. He kind of hired me this morning on nothing more than a whim. I was actually just a maid at the castle this morning.” The princess chuckled to herself.
“I can see he‘s still as impulsive as ever. ”
“Talking about me behind my back, Princess Twilight. And I came all this way to apologize too.” The prince said entering the room. Clover noticed the princess’ smile go to a more neutral expression.
“Quite a surprise! Doesn’t an apology admit that you did something wrong? I wonder what could make somepony as stubborn as you do such a thing. Strange, isn‘t it, Clover?”
“I’ve come to make amends, and all you can do is search for an ulterior motive that doesn’t exist. It doesn’t really come off as friendly, does it?” The princess had enough of Chronos’ attitude and was about to speak up when Clover interrupted.
“Chronos, I’d like to speak to you alone for a minute.” She said glaring at him.
“Ok, I guess?” Twilight watched with great interest as the two moved to a secluded little corner and started to converse. She couldn’t hear what was being said, but they were animated enough that she could figure out the basic gist of their conversation.
Chronos was acting like a colt getting a lecture he didn’t want to listen to. He was looking downward and avoiding eye contact. Clover was obvious giving him a good talking to but Chronos seemed like he could care less. That is until she pointed towards the door and said some thing that made the petulant stallion perk up and start to protest. Clover started to make for the door, but Chronos quickly jumped in front of her and began to plead with her. Clover said something that made him slump and nod.
“Prince Chronos. I see you weren’t lying after all.” Paige said entering the room with a cart. An expensive looking silver tea set sat upon it. “I apologize for only bringing three cups, your highness. In my defense, I didn’t believe another pony was actually here.”
“It’s quite alright, Paige. Why don’t you take my cup? Prince Chronos and Clover can enjoy the rest.” The duo walked back to Princess Twilight. The haughty prince was much quieter than earlier. Twilight remembered how every lesson was a constant battle just to get Chronos to pay attention. She wondered if Clover knew just what kind of power she had over him.
“Well, I assume you’re here to apologize. Get on with it. Her highness doesn’t have all day for your lollygagging.” Paige remarked. Chronos gave her the evil eye, but the mare just smiled as she took a cup of tea in her hooves and lifted it in a mocking gesture. The stallion decided to ignore her for now as he prepared to do something he never thought he’d ever do.
“I have not been as… respectful as I could have in the past. I humbly apologize for my behavior and hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.” Chronos punctuated the statement by kneeling. He could almost feel his body rejecting the very act as he did it.
“Hmph, you’re just realizing that now! I must say you‘re slower than I thought, or do you have some other reason for doing this?” Paige said looking in Clover‘s direction. He could have flung the crystal pony back to the crystal kingdom if he weren’t trying to get on Princess Twilight’s good side.
“She does raise a good point. The fact that you stepped forward and came to apologize is one thing, but you said some pretty hurtful things before you left. You will need to do something to prove your sincerity.”
“More than that?” Chronos thought to himself. “A proud alicorn prince kneels before you and you need more than that. Who did she think she was?” He was so beside himself with anger that he was about to explode when Clover placed a hoof on his back.
“Please, your majesty! Give Chronos a chance to prove himself!” She said as she knelt down beside him. Princess Twilight pondered the situation for a moment.
“If I may interject your highness, I have a task that would give the prince a chance to redeem himself.” Paige interceded.
“You do?” Twilight said surprised by her comment.
“As somepony who has the utmost respect and admiration for you and knows about the tumultuous history between you two, I feel that I am most capable of testing the prince’s sincerity. If you would entrust this task to me, I have several conditions.”
“Such as?”
“The first is that you don’t ask what I have in mind. The second is that you seal the prince’s magic temporarily. Finally, I ask that you give me several hours alone with him. I understand that my request is highly unorthodox. Some might even say unreasonable, but I assure you that I am the only one who can accurately gauge whether his apology is heartfelt.” Paige proclaimed with great fervor. The princess looked at her for a moment before smiling.
“You certainly seem sure of yourself. However, the fact remains that I’d be putting the life of my precious nephew in your hooves if I consented to your request. If something were to happen to him, it would put considerable strain on my relationship with his parents.”
“I can assure you the prince’s life will be perfectly safe in my hooves, but if I may suggest an equally viable way for the prince to prove himself, how about he return to your grace’s tutelage?” The stallion instantly cringed at the thought of studying under Twilight. Long, boring lectures about magic theory combined with the occasional tale of friendship thrown in was absolutely too much. He told himself that he’d never be her student again. A promise he planned to keep at any cost.
“Didn’t you just say that you were the only one capable of judging my sincerity?” Chronos objected. Clover looked to the prince who stood up to face the two mares. Was he seriously going to go with whatever Paige had in my mind?
“I suppose I did. However if you return to-”
“Then I think I should like to see you keep your word, Miss Turner!”
“Are you sure, Prince Chronos? You have no idea what she has planned. It could be dangerous.”
“If I accept full responsibility, my parents won’t have any reason to be angry with you, and if it satisfies your highness, I will gladly accept Miss Turner’s proposal.” Twilight laughed to herself as she took a step towards the much taller stallion.
“I see. You were always one to learn things the hard way.” Princess Twilight’s horn sparked as Chronos felt his connection to his magic fade. He couldn’t cast even the simplest of spells now.
“Are you sure about this, Chronos?” Clover asked worried for his safety. The prince pounded his chest and snorted.
“I’m tougher than I look Clover. I‘ll be fine.” She looked at him for a moment before turning to Paige.
“I’m coming with you!” Paige was quick to cut her down.
“I’m so sorry. There’s no room for one of Prince Chronos’ throwaways on this trip. Why don‘t you slink back to whatever little hole he picked you up from?”
“I am not some throwaway. I’m his assistant, and if any harm comes to Prince Chronos, I’ll hold you personally responsible.” She said glaring at the mare.
“Is that so?” She said adjusting her glasses and glaring back dramatically.
“I told you I’ll be fine, Clover. No need to get confrontational.” Clover backed down at his insistence.
“Just be careful, okay?”
“When am I not careful?”
“Do you really want me answer to that?” She laughed.
“I guess not.” He laughed as well.
“If you two are done with your little moment, I’d like to begin.” Paige remarked snidely.
“Lead the way.” Chronos said with a flourish. The mare walked quickly out of the room with Chronos close behind. Before he left, he turned and waved to Clover. She gave a tiny wave back as he left her alone with Princess Twilight.
“So what’d you have in mind that requires all this fanfare?” Chronos wondered aloud. She didn’t respond as they walked through the halls of Twilight’s castle.
“Oh, I get it. You want it to be a surprise, right?” She didn’t answer this time either. They started to head down a flight of stone steps to a part of the castle he wasn‘t familiar with. The circular staircase spiraled of into an encroaching darkness barely lit by the occasional torch.
“Are we…. heading towards the dungeon?” Living in a castle all your life gave you a pretty good idea of what went where.
“Having second thoughts?” She asked without stopping.
“No, I was just wondering when you were going to tell me what you had in mind.” She turned and smiled at him.
“As soon as you wake up, I‘d be more than happy to explain.”
“Wake up? I’m not slee-” The prince was interrupted as he felt a sharp blow to the back of his neck send him into a state of unconsciousness.
“That’s for my sister, scumbag!” The guard said as he looked up on the motionless lump of royalty.
“Oh, please! Are you going to knock out the hundred other stallions she fell in love with?”
“She’s just has an innocent heart, mistress.”
“Innocence and stupidity are two very different things. We’re not here for your petty revenge or to discuss your sister‘s lack of foresight. Pick him up and carry him to the chapel. It‘s about time the prince pay for his transgressions against our Queen.” The stallion nodded and hefted the stallion on his back as he followed the mare to the castle dungeon.

Chronos’ Sexual Revolution
Chapter 4
The Stallion Who Would Pay
Big dark, blobs seem to hover around him. As the haze of unconsciousness started to lift, his vision became clearer and he realized that they weren’t blobs but ponies in black cloaks. They also weren’t hovering either. It just seemed that way because he was lying down.
The prince tried to stand only to hear the sound of shackles and giggling from the crowd who were watch with hidden faces. The cold, hard surface he was on also stretched his limbs outward leaving him vulnerable. While he couldn’t stand at attention, a certain part of him was standing tall and proud despite everything.
The prince could hear the sounds of moaning in the background. It was then that Chronos noticed the distinct smell of sex in the air. It was that familiar mixture of bodily juices the prince had become so accustomed to. Looking through small gaps in the crowd, he could see other ponies engaged in various forms of erotic play. Toys, anal, oral, and everything else a dirty mind could imagine were going on beyond the crowd.
One of the black cloaks took a step towards him. Much to the chagrin of the one standing next to her. She jumped out in front of her and spoke loudly.
“What are you doing?”
“It’s magnificent. I just want to touch it.” The cloak said as she tried to side step her
“We both know you’ll end up doing more than touching.” She countered as she blocked her again.
“It’s the prince! Besides, you always go on about how great it was to be with him. I just want to know how it feels.”
“Shh! My identity is supposed to be-”
“Morning Glory! I remember you from my visit to the Wonderbolts Academy.” The prince called out to the pony who turned to look in his direction before turning her eyes away.
“No, you must have me confused for someone else!” She said trying to make her voice deeper.
“I never forget a mare I shared relations with. You remember me, right? We had sex on your little sister’s bed because she took the top bunk.”
“You did what?” The other mare said angrily.
“Shut up! Now he knows who you are too.”
“Silver Lining? Hey, how’ve you been? Did you ever get my letter?”
“What letter?”
“I asked if you liked me to meet me by the rainbow lake. Your sister came and said you weren‘t so we just did it again under the moon. It was really beautiful.” Silver Lining wasted no time tackling her sister to the ground.
“You bitch! You stole my chance to be with the prince then bragged about it to my face!” The two ponies rolled around on the floor. They pulled each others manes as they struggled against each other. This went on for almost a minute before pony brought order to the chaos. They were both pegasi and had soft blue fur. Morning Glory’s mane was a golden blond and her sister’s was a shimmering silver.
“Enough of this!” An exasperated voice called out. A pony in a purple cloak with Twilight’s cutie mark emblazoned on the back stepped through the crowd. The two ponies who fought each other so fiercely were groveling as the pony stepped forward and threw back her hood.
“How dare you ruin the mood I was trying to set with your foolish arguing? You’ve ruined everything!” Paige said revealing herself.
“If you were trying to scare or embarrass me, it really wasn’t working. My parents have walked in on me so many times that I’m kind of immune to the whole full exposure thing. Nothing is worse than getting caught by your parents mid coitus, except catching your parents mid coitus. Am I right? I know I’m not the only pony here who caught his dad giving his mom the business. Who’s with me? That guy over there knows what I‘m talking about.” Chronos said craning his head in the direction of a random stallion who looked shocked to be chosen. A few ponies chuckled as cloaked pony shrugged and nodded. The gesture was met with an ice cold glare from Paige as she brought the entire room to silence.
“Are you finished?” She asked the prince.
“Actually, I had this whole bit about how my dad is a dragon and it’s even more traumatic cause it’s look like he’s attacking her but she really enjoys it for some reason. Do you mind if go ahead?”
“I… hate… you… so… much… right… now.”
“I’ll take that as a no. Hey, catch the rest of my set at the Happy Hourglass. Wear your cloaks and get half off all drinks!”
“I’ll deal with you later. As for you two, I feel as though we should do something to help you two get along better. After all, I hate to see such good siblings fight.”
“That’s quite alright, Mistress Turner. We’ll never argue again. Isn’t that right, Silver Lining?”
“Of course, it’ll never happen again, mistress.”
“Oh that’s wonderful! If only there were some gesture you two could perform to commemorate your newfound sisterhood, I wonder,” Paige said pacing in front of them with a devious smile. “I think I just came up with the thing too. Morning Glory and Silver Lining in an act mutual affection and to make up for Glory’s past action. She will use Number 13 on Silver Lining.”
“N-N-N-Number 13!” The mares said stunned horror.
“Please I beg forgiveness, Mistress Turner! I’ll do anything.” Silver Lining pleaded.
“Yes, I can’t use Number 13 on my sister. ” Morning Glory added.
As the sisters pleaded, a rather large chest floated through the crowd. Everyone seemed to take an extra step back as the mysterious red chest landed in front of Paige. As she opened the chest, it became clear to him why Number 13 inspired such fear.
Paige picked up the contents and drop the on the floor in front of the girls. A large blue strapon nearly twice the size and width of any normal stallions member landed with a thud in front of them. No one could use that and feel anything but pure agony.
“I suggest you put it on and get going Morning Glory. I prefer not to keep our guest waiting.” Morning Glory looked at it for a moment before breaking down.
“I can’t, mistress. She’s my little sister.” She whimpered. Paige looked down on her without the slightest hint of mercy.
“It’s okay, sis. I can take it.” Silver Lining said nervously.
“Sil…”
“See, it’s fine! You heard her. Go on and put it on.” Morning Glory did as the mistress requested. It looked ridiculously big on her as she slipped on her rather slender frame. She had to stand on her back hooves just to maintain her own balance. With tears in her eyes, she watched as her younger sibling assumed the position in front of her. She placed the tip at her entrance and held it there.
“I’m so sorry about everything.” She whispered to her sister. Her tears falling on the massive phallus dangling between her legs. As Silver Lining closed her eyes and prepared for the worst, she found herself crying as well.
“It’s okay. I forgive you for everything.” She said as her sister pulled her hips back.
“Hold it!” Prince Chronos commanded. The entire room went still at his words.
“Is something wrong, your highness?” Paige asked.
“I think this has gone on long enough. Let them off as personal favor to me.”
“Why should I?”
“A personal favor from a prince is always repaid. You brought me down here because you need something and I’ll go along with whatever you want.”
“Oh, you will! That does make things considerably easier on me.” Paige said ecstatically. “I suppose I’ll let you two off this time. If you should raise my ire again however, you’ll be banished from the castle forever. Am I clear?”
“Yes, mistress!” They said standing up and bowing to them.
“Release the prince and prepare the body paint. Operation Sparkling Fantasy is a go, people!”
Meanwhile in Twilight’s Study
The two ponies stood in the center of the room surrounded by bookshelves packed with texts and tomes. A small desk covered in stacks of books seem to serve as a study area.
“I don’t know. Is it really that simple?”
“You just have to trust yourself, Clover. You have the magic to pull this off. Believe in yourself and focus.”
“Okay, here I go.” Clover said channeling her magic. In an instant, she disappeared and reappeared on the other side of the room.
“Congratulations, Clover! You’ve just learned how to teleport.” Twilight proclaimed proudly.
“I couldn’t have done it without your instruction, your highness. You’re an amazing teacher.” Twilight couldn’t help but laugh at her praise.
“I’m sure the prince has told you otherwise on multiple occasions.”
“If it’s any consolation, I assumed it was more of a personal bias on his part than any real problem with your methods.”
“I appreciate your confidence in me, but if I failed to reach him, it’s still my fault as his teacher.”
“I don’t get it. You’re an excellent teacher. How could Chronos not see that?”
“I could tell you, but I’m not sure he would appreciate it.”
“He doesn’t have to know that I know.”
“Very well! I guess it all started when Chronos graduated from the Canterlot School of Magic at the age of eleven. This was long before he started sleeping around. He spent most of his time tinkering with clocks, if you can imagine.”
“Clocks? You mean like fixing them?”
“More like building them from scratch and all kinds too. Wrist watches, cuckoo clocks, grandfather clocks, and just about any kind of clock you could think of he probably built it. He called them Chrono Logical Originals.”
“Aww, that sounds adorable. Does he still make them?” Princess Twilight mood dropped considerably at her question.
“No, he doesn’t. I’m afraid that’s my fault. It all started the day after Chronos finished his last day at Canterlot’s School of Magic. Spike and Luna wanted me to place him under my tutelage. It was a huge honor to be selected. A student with his raw potential is truly rare. I suppose I let my enthusiasm blind me and I didn‘t notice that Chronos‘ interest extended past his studies.”
“You don’t mean… he developed a crush on you?”
“In retrospect, it should have been obvious. The way he looked at me when I taught, the way he’d pretend not to understand something and ask me to sit closer to him, and all the clocks he gave me.”
“He gave his clocks away?”
“Most of his creations ended up as gifts. On every gift giving occasion, you could expect a Chrono Logical Original from the prince.”
“That’s strange. If he made so many, why haven’t I seen one around the castle?” Princess Twilight walked over to her desk and opened one of the drawers. She pulled out a red heart shaped alarm clock and pressed a small button on top.
“Will you be my special somepony?” The device said in a warped voice over and over before turning into a dying warble.
“This is the last clock he ever made. He gave it to me when he confessed. It was our last lesson together. A few months later he found a new hobby to occupy his time. I was supposed to guide and nurture him. Instead, I failed him.”
“There must be something we can do for him. I know this may sound strange, but I want to see the prince who worked on clocks.”
“Did you like his clock that much?” Twilight asked.
“Not really. If I’m being honest, it’s kind of tacky.” Clover admitted. “But… it just seems like the Chronos you described was happier than the one I know.”
“It is pretty tacky. What do you have in mind?” Twilight chuckled.
“I think the first step involves getting him back into clocks again, but I’m not really sure how to go about it.”
“Hmm, I can’t help you with that, but I know who can.”
Back in the Dungeon
The stallion stood painted in a purple tone very reminiscent of a certain princess. His cutie marks painted over with a crudely painted star surrounded by sparkles. It was all done at the behest of Mistress Turner and her minions in order to fulfill some sort of fantasy.
“Did you paint everything?” She asked one of the stallions in charge of coloring the prince.
“Every inch, mistress.” The pony said licking his lips at the prince who was made infinitely more uncomfortable by the gesture.
“Excellent! Have everyone leave. I’ll take care of things from here.”
“As you wish. Mistress Turner. Goodbye, my lady.” The stallion said winking at the prince as he left. He wasn’t the only to make a final gesture as he left. Morning Glory and Silver Lining both gave him a wave as they left. Normally, he’d flirt back, but his current situation made him a bit too self conscious to indulge in such activities. As the last pony left the room and close the door, he realized he was alone in a sex dungeon painted up like Princess Twilight with her current assistant. It was time to ask some questions.
“So is there any-” Chronos was cut short as Paige wrapped her hooves around his neck and began planting rapid fire kisses on his face.
“Hold it… I want…. to ask… some… questions.” He said when his lips weren’t being covered by her own.
“Shut up, you’re breaking the illusion!” She said as she started to kiss his neck.
“I think my dick would break the illusion, unless you know something about Princess Twilight that I don’t.” She stopped and stared at him harshly before sighing.
“Here’s how this is going to go. We are going to have sex. You are going to remain silent. If I hear anything more than a grunt or moan out of you, I shall slap you across the face. I will answer any questions you have afterwards. Are we clear?”
“O-Of course.”
“You may however call me ‘your number one assistant’ at any point during.” She said with a slight blush in her dark blue crystal cheeks.
“Isn’t that what Twilight used to call my da- OW!” Chronos shouted as Paige whipped the back of her hoof across his face.
“I believe I made myself quite clear. I‘ll answer all your silly little questions later, okay?” She said as she slipped out of her robe and made her way to the a nearby bed. She shook her head causing the bun in her to fall. Her dark black, wavy hair cascaded down. The crystal pony’s dark blue body shined in the light of the torches as she held a hoof out to him.
“Now come, my princess. Take me!” She said. As the prince stood there rubbing his sore cheek, he couldn’t help but notice how beautiful Paige was. She was always such an uptight bore who couldn’t help sucking up to Twilight that it was hard to see as anything more than nuisance. In this new light , she seemed like an entirely different pony.
“Don’t make me come over there, your highness.” She said in a threatening sing song voice.
Chronos, not being one to leave a beautiful beckoning mare waiting, made his way to the bed. As he approached, Paige laid on her back staring up at him with those big, pink gem shaped pupils from behind her glasses. Despite the weirdness of it all, he couldn’t help be caught up in the in her little fantasy as he walked over to her.
As soon as he got within range, Paige leapt up and pulled him downward on top of her. In an instant, he found her tongue pushing it’s way into his mouth. He found himself lying on top of her with his tongue practically being pulled out. His erection pressed in between their bellies as she wrapped all four hooves around him.
It was becoming clear from the outset that Paige was taking the initiative, but he had to wonder if this tidal wave of affection was all for Twilight. No matter how hard she imagined, she couldn’t distance herself too much from the fact that he was someone she actively hated before. Was her standoffish front hiding some secret affection for him?
His questions melted away as she reached down and began stroking his member. She broke their kiss and stared deeply into his eyes. Their breathing was as heavy as the moment itself. She placed a hoof on his cheek and smiled.
“Let me attend to you, milady.” She pushed him on his back and moved downward to throbbing hard on. In a surprising show of restraint, she placed her lips on the prince’s tip and slowly began to take in his girth. She moved her to the base of his penis and stroked the area. With her mouth on the top half and her hoof working the bottom half, Chronos felt incredible. By the time she stopped, his dick was completely covered in drool.
“I can’t wait anymore. Ravage me!” She said standing up and wiggling her dripping mare hood in front of him. “Do it, Princess Twilight! Make me your number one assistant!”
Chronos almost spoke out of turn at that last statement. Was she implying that Spike and Twilight had a thing at some point? He knew Twilight and Spike were friends back in the day, but was it possible that more existed between than a platonic, lifelong friendship? Did his mother know about it? If he wanted answers, he’d have to finish up here.
As he stood up, her hips swayed back and forth. She was practically begging for it. It was too bad he couldn’t enjoy it as much he’d like to., not with the bomb she just dropped. The least he could do is focus his anger and frustration on her. If she wanted to be ravaged, he’d be more than give it to her.
Chronos eyed her pink slit. Her fluids and crystal pony physiology gave it the look of a gem shining in the light. He placed his hooves on her sides and in one fell swoop inserted his full length deep inside her. Paige pushed her head into the sheets and bit her lips as she relished the feeling.
“Oh, yes! Ruin me, Princess Twilight! Fuck me till I can‘t feel anything!” She shouted.
Chronos was more than happy to oblige as began a relentless thrusting assault deep in her mare hood. Each thrust was harder and faster than the last. The sound of squealing and their hips smacking together bounced off the walls. Paige entire body shook as he pounded her without slowing down. It wasn’t even a minute before she felt her first orgasm.
“Oh, I’m cumming!” She shouted as she squirted her juices all over the sheets. Her legs buckled for a moment as the sensation ripped through her body like lightning. However, this fact did nothing to distract the stallion from his furious pace.
He pulled her up as he sat back and bounced her on his lap. Paige could only move like rag doll as the prince thrust even deeper from this better angle. She moaned as she felt her body reaching another orgasm.
“More!” She cried out as she rode him. Her legs were starting go numb and her heart was racing like crazy. She didn’t know how much longer she’d last. Her body couldn’t take the strain much longer.
Chronos could feel his limit fast approaching. He had never had sex with this much intensity before. He gathered last vestiges of his strength as he sat up and wrapped his hooves around her waist. The stallion held her tightly as he pumped his hips as fast as he could.
“Agh!” She shouted as he pushed himself deep inside her body with one last mighty thrust. The force of his ejaculation giving her another orgasm.
Chronos pulled her down as the two fell into a spooning position. The two of them were wordless as they caught their breaths. Paige spoke first.
“You can let go of me now.” She said going back to her serious tone.
“Hmph! Most girls beg me to hold them afterwards and you want me to let you go.” Chronos said as held her even tighter.
“We just had hateful, angry sex. Spooning afterwards ruins everything. A real stallion would have walked away by now.”
“Wait! I thought you were pretending I was Twilight Sparkle.”
“No, I just did that to embarrass and humiliate you.”
“So you did all this just to get me angry so we could have hate sex?”
“You’re not as stupid as you look.” She said breaking his grasp and rolling over to face him.
“So all that stuff about my dad and Twilight having sex was just to get me going? Whew!” He sighed in relief.
“No, that’s all true. I knew all about your crush and decided to rile you up with something intensely personal.”
“Huh? How do you know all this?”
“I discovered where Princess Twilight’s hides her journals. Imagine my surprise when I found out she lost her virginity to your father of all people.”
“You’re lying. You’re just trying to piss me off.” He growled at her.
“Oh really? Do you go around telling everyone you were rejected by Twilight Sparkle? I bet the part about the alarm clock gets them every time.”
“Enough.” Chronos said turning away. Paige put a hoof on his shoulder and rubbed him ever so gently.
“Aww, poor baby! I guess I should expect such a reaction from a stallion who became the kingdom’s greatest slut because he got his heartbroken. Shall I get the royal foal his bottle, hmm? A whore, perhaps?”
“I… said… enough.” Chronos said as his eyes started glow white with crackling energy.
“I really can’t blame her for turning you down. If your gift giving is any indication, she avoided years of incredibly stupid talking timepieces for her birthday.”
“ENOUGH!” He shouted as his magic came surging back. He levitated above her with a look of extreme anger as the entire room shook.
“Apologize now!” His voice echoing with power and intensity. She merely laughed and laid back.
“Make me.”
Several Hours Later in Twilight’s Study
“They should have been back by now.” Clover said looking out the window. She could see Princess Celestia flying up to lower the sun.
“I’ve asked the guards to investigate, but they haven’t reported back yet. I wonder what’s going on.” Princess Twilight wondered. As if on cue, Prince Chronos burst through the door of her library.
“Thanks for everything, princess. It was a real pleasure. Come on, Clover. We’re leaving.” Prince Chronos said grabbing her hoof and leading her out.
“Where is Miss Turner?” The princess asked suspiciously.
“She decided to take a few personal days. I left her in her bedroom. She’s sound asleep so you shouldn’t disturb her until morning. We’ll be seeing you. Come on, Clover.”
“Hold on a second, Chronos. What did she say about your apology?” Clover said holding him up.
“My what?” He said confused.
“Miss Turner was testing you to see if your apology was sincere, remember?” Princess Twilight said.
“She.. uhhh.. said it was very sincere. Yep, it was definitely sincere. We‘re leaving now. Bye.” Chronos said teleporting himself and Clover away. A guard rushed in at that moment and saluted.
“At ease, soldier. What do you have to report?”
“We found your assistant in her room.”
“How’d she look?”
“To be frank, your highness. She looked like an absolute mess. Her breathing was heavy and her eyes were unfocused. I've never seen her quite so out of it.”
“Have a doctor check on her. How was her mood?”
“Despite everything, she seemed happy to be like that. I figure she was delirious.”
“Thank you. That’ll be all.” She said dismissing the guard. She walked over to the window and watched as Princess Celestia lowered the sun.
“As long as she had fun, I could let him off this time. I knew she would take him down there so I can't be too mad that something like this happen. At the very least, it looks like things are about to pickup.”

Chapter 5
The Stallion Who Would Have Dinner
“Why did you teleport us away like that? What happened to Paige? And where did you get that scroll?” She asked trying to keep up with the prince as he walked down the street levitating a scroll.
“It’s the spell we need. I managed to teleport it away with us. Pretty neat, huh?” Chronos said slowing down.
“Not neat! You stole from Princess Twilight. We were there to apologize, remember? When she finds out she’ll think-” Clover’s worrying was interrupted as the prince stopped and started fall to one side. She managed to get under him before he hit the ground, but it wasn‘t easy supporting his weight.
“I guess I pushed myself too far.” Chronos said breathing heavily as he used his magic to place the scroll behind his ear.
“What did she make you do?” Clover asked helping him get to his hooves
“Do you know anywhere nearby we could rest?” He asked trying to support himself.
“Well, my apartment is a block away, but…” Clover said looking down.
“Excellent, I’ll rest there. Lead the way!”
“I don’t think that’s such a good idea.” Prince Chronos noticed the mare’s nervousness and decided to put her at ease.
“I’m not expecting a castle, Clover. I’m sure it’s fine.”
“J-just don’t say anything. You can rest for a few minutes then you have to leave. Okay?” Clover said making her terms clear. Chronos was curious as to why she was so hesitant to let him see where she lived.
As the two of them walked down the street, several ponies took notice of the prince and the mare walking down the street. Clover wasn’t used to such attention as the prince smiled and waved to everyone around her. She found herself a bit envious of how easy it was for him to be so social. She felt invisible next to him as she walked beside him.
“Can I get a picture?” A few mares asked.
“Sure! How’s this?” Chronos said putting a leg around Clover and pulling her close. Clover and the mares were both taken by surprise.
“Umm… They probably want a picture of just you.” Clover said.
“Nonsense! You don’t mind if my assistant is in the picture, right?” He asked. The mare with her camera looked at her friend who shrugged.
“I suppose.” She said slightly disappointed.
“Actually, I don’t feel like taking a picture. You go ahead.” Clover said stepping out of the frame.
“Are you sure?” Chronos asked.
“Oh well, what are you going to do?” The mare with the camera said as she prepared to take the shot. Chronos quickly smiled as she snapped the photo before running to her side.
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling alright?” Chronos asked Clover.
“I’m fine. Let’s go. It’s right up here.” She said walking ahead of him. Chronos tried to talk to her, but he was barely able to keep up with her. He was finally able to catch up to her as she stopped in front of a rundown building.
The windows that weren’t cracked were covered with cardboard. The bricks were discolored and crumbly. The stoop smelled like it had been used as a restroom on more than one occasion. He had lived in Canterlot all his life and couldn’t remember seeing a building of such poor condition before.
As Clover walked up to the door and opened it, the sound of crying foals and shouting could be heard through the paper thin wall. She didn’t say anything as she stepped over a stallion sleeping under a greasy newspaper. His smell did considerably less to improve the overall aroma of the building. He looked around and saw patches of wallpaper missing from the wall. Whether they fell off or were simply torn, was anypony’s guess?
Clover stopped at a door with a faint outline of the number four. There was some sort of marker before, but it was nowhere to be seen. She looked around making sure no one was around before using her magic to pull a key from the top of the doorframe. She carefully placed her key in the slot and jiggled it several times as she pushed it in before turning it. It was clearly a ritual she had practiced before because it didn’t seem to upset her when it took several tries to finally get the door open.
A short, overweight green unicorn in a flower print dress walked out of the apartment next door with a cigarette in her mouth. She tossed a quick glance at Chronos before looking at Clover.
“No overnight visitors, Clover! I didn’t think I had to explain that to you though. What is he a gigolo or something? He looks kind of high dollar. How much is he?” She said in a voice that sounded like a cement mixer.
“He’s not a gigolo. It’s Prince Chronos.” She explained.
“You expect me to believe that you brought home, Prince Chronos? He looks a lot like him though. I‘ll give you that.” She said fixing her rather obvious pink wig and winking at him.
“He’s not staying overnight. He’s just going to rest for a few minutes.”
“So he’ll be available soon?” She said taking her fresh cigarette down to the butt in an instant and spitting it away.
“Will you set her straight?” Clover said looking at him.
“I’m not saying anything like you wanted.” The prince said putting his hooves up.
“Ooh, obedient! I like that.” She said before going into a coughing fit.
“Come on!” Clover said ordering him inside and closing the door.
“Don’t wear him out too much!” The mare shouted.
Calling Clover’s apartment cramped would have been an understatement. His bed had more space than her entire bedroom. There was a bathroom, but it lacked a door of any kind. There wasn’t any sort of closet. It was more a box than a living space.
“Why’d you embarrass me like that? She thinks I brought home a prostitute.”
“Don’t worry. The first time is free, but the second round is another matter entirely.” He said laying on her bed and taking the scroll out of his ear.
“What are you talking about?” Clover said.
“The walls are paper thin. I bet she’s listening to us right now.” Chronos whispered.
“You are not a gigolo. You’re Prince Chronos!” She shouted.
“I’ll be whoever you want as long as you pay for the hour. I get that one a lot though!”
“You have wings and a horn. Stop playing!”
“My horn is a fake. I put it on back in Cloudsdale. Some mare made me put it on and I just never took it off. I make a lot of money impersonating that guy.” He shouted.
“Why are you doing this? It’s embarrassing.” She huffed.
“You’re not going to be living here much longer anyway. What’s it matter?” He said busy studying the scroll.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“I’m not going to let you live here. You can have the room next to mine.”
“I can’t move into the castle. Only royalty can live in the castle. It’s a rule.”
“No one can complain if you’re my personal guest.”
“I can’t. It wouldn’t be right.”
“What’s wrong? I’m a prince, Clover. It‘ll be all right.”
“No, it won’t. You’re my employer and I have sex with you. Don‘t you think our relationship is going to be confusing enough without living together?”
“Clover, we’re currently trying to trick my parents into believing we’re in love so they can’t marry me to some other mare. I’m also about to cast a spell that’ll make us ‘love’ each other. Our relationship is past confusing.” He laughed.
“You’re going to cast it now?”
“Yep, we’re about to meet my parents in about five minutes anyway.” Chronos said standing up and starting the spell.
“What? What do you mean five minutes from now?” Clover said as the prince’s horn sent out heart waves that fell over the two of them. As they looked into each other eyes, the rest of the world seemed to melt away. It felt like they were spinning as the spell seemed to take hold. The two of them closed their eyes for a second as the magic around them seem to dissipate.
“Open your eyes and look only at me, Clover.” Chronos told her.
“Okay.” She said looking into his glittering green eys..
“How do you feel?” He asked staring into her deep brown eyes.
“Well, now that you mention it I’m kind of… kind of…”
“Yeah?” He said hopeful for a positive result.
“Absolutely furious with you! First, you steal from Princess Twilight. You pushed yourself way too far doing who knows what with Paige. By the way, I’m pretty sure whatever you were doing was highly sexual and very inappropriate. Then you embarrass me in front of my landlady. To top it all off, you cast a highly dangerous spell on me without my permission only seconds after learning it. I am a lot of things right now. In love with you is definitely not one of them.” She said fuming as she backed him into a ball.
“Clover, you need to smile.” Chronos told her.
“Smile! I am so far from smiling right now. You’re lucky if I don’t tear off this shirt and quit altogether. You‘re reckless, irresponsible, stubborn, and above all else rude. I swear you‘re the worst employer in the history in all of Equestria.”
“You don’t have to smile, but if you could stop shouting in the next five seconds, I’d really appreciate it.” He said as a familiar purple glow surrounded them.
“Didn’t anyone teach you any manners?” She shouted.
“I beg your pardon!” A regal female voice said.
Clover found herself in front of a large ornate table filled with a feast fit for royalty. At the head of the table sat a very angry Princess Luna and a very intrigued Spike. The mare was in the royal dining room of Canterlot Castle.
“I see another mare has experienced our son’s particular brand of charm.” Spike joked.
“Chronos, who is this mare?” Luna demanded.
“This is Clever Clover, former maid and my current assistant. Say hi, Clover.” Chronos said pushing the stunned mare forward.
“I-I’m so sorry for my thoughtless words. I-I-It’s a pleasure to meet you.” She said bowing her head.
“It’s not your fault. My son knows better than to be an out at a certain time. My wife placed a spell on him quite sometime ago when he had trouble coming home for dinner. He’s automatically summoned here before dinner every night. Something I’m guessing he failed to tell you.”
“It doesn’t matter. She’s going home. Now!” Luna said glaring enough to make Clover feel more than a little scared for her life.
“Actually, she’s home already. As my personal assistant, she’ll be moving into the room next to mine.” Luna balked at the prince’s announcement.
“Absolutely not! I forbid it. With your engagement party on the horizon, I won’t let you have another mare move in next to you.”
“I demand the same privilege afforded to Princess Twilight Sparkle. It’s my right to delegate a live in assistant.” Chronos shot back.
“The circumstances surrounding her ascension required your father to live with her. You were born an alicorn. You don‘t require an assistant.”
“I recently received a letter from Twi about an interesting young mare who managed to get my son to finally apologize to her. That‘s quite a feat, young lady.”
“It was nothing, Sir Spike. I merely convinced him to do the right thing.”
“Trust me, my dear. Getting my son to do anything he doesn’t want is a feat in and of itself. Do you know what it’s like to give an alicorn foal his shots? I swear he turned the hospital upside down before Luna finally calmed him down enough to take his shots.” Spike laughed putting Clover at ease. Chronos just glared at his father for embarrassing him.
“You can’t possibly be considering this!” Luna said.
“If she makes him a better stallion, there might be some benefit to letting him have an assistant. However, I agree that it would be highly inappropriate to have the two of them living next to each other.”
“What are you proposing?” Luna asked. Spike stood up and walked over to her.
“I believe the problem with Clover living next to our son is the fact that he may be tempted to sleep with her. However, I believe if she were to make a promise to refrain from sexual activity with our son that she would keep it.” Spike said stopping in front of her. The mare had to look up as the dragon towered over her. He seemed bigger than he looked somehow. His eyes locked on to her own. She didn’t think it was possible, but she felt more nervous under his gaze than Princess Luna’s.
“Sir Spike?” She said feeling an immense amount of pressure from his gaze.
“If you swear to never have sex with my son as long as you live here, you can live in the room next to his. If you can agree to that, we will let you live within the castle. Understood?” He asked in a deathly serious tone.
“I-I promise.” Clover gulped. Spike turned and looked to Luna who simply sighed.
“Very well! I’ll trust Spike’s judgment in this matter. You may live as a guest within the castle walls for as long you’re my son’s assistant. However, if you break your promise I will not hesitate to dismiss you immediately. Consider this your only warning.” Luna told her.
“Th-thank you, your highness! I’ll be on my best behavior.” She said bowing her head.
“Is something wrong Chronos? You’ve been pretty quiet.” Spike addressed his son.
“I was just wondering if anything like that happened between you and Princess Twilight. I mean you lived with her as an for sometime. It wouldn’t be too much a stretch too assume that the relationship turned into something more at some point.” Spike turned towards his son with a stern expression.
“Whether I did or not is none of your concern, I chose your mother and we had you. I’ve never once looked back on any of those decisions. I suggest you dwell on other matters.” Spike told him as the two males exchanged hard stares.
“Come, let us eat. The food is getting cold enough as it is and I can’t stay too long.” The princess’ urging seemed to calm the two of them down as they both sat down. Clover stood there not sure if she should join.
“Come on, Clover. You must be starving.” Chronos said levitating a seat next to him.
“Oh, yes. Please join us, Clover.” Luna said in less than sincere tone.
“How would you like to hear another story about my son as a foal?” Spike asked her.
“She doesn’t want to hear that. It was all so long ago.” Chronos said poking his salad.
“I wouldn’t mind hearing another story.” Clover said to the prince’s dismay.
“Did you know what it’s like to potty train a colt who can fly and teleport? I swear making him sit on a toilet was nearly impossible.”
“Oh, I remember that! You held his wings down while I made sure he didn’t use his magic. It took an entire hour of crying and squirming but my wittle Chrony finally made boom boom on the potty.” Luna said making Chronos’ entire face turn red.
“Can we please discuss something else?” The stallion said sinking into the seat.
“I’m sorry. One of the many symptoms of parenthood is talking about your kids. Do you plan on having foals someday, Clover?” Spike asked as he bit into a huge gem. Chronos and Clover immediately glanced at each other.
“Spike! Don’t you think that’s a rather personal question?” Luna scolded him.
“Oh, come on! It’s not all that personal, and I’m sure the thought has crossed Clover’s mind before. It has crossed your mind before?” Spike said looking over to the nervous mare. Clover knew he was asking, but it was almost like he telling her at the same time.
“I …ummm-”
“So I was telling Clover about my upcoming engagement. I was wondering how the planning is going?” Chronos said changing the subject.
“Your father and I are still working on the fine details so to speak, but everything is coming along nicely.” Luna said casting a side glance at Spike as she took a sip from her goblet. The dragon caught her eyes and nodded quickly as if remembering something.
“Actually, we were wondering what type of mare you wanted to marry. Your mother and I have different ideas about the type of mare we think you should be with. Your opinion could help resolve some tension- Ow!” Spike said as Princess Luna elbowed the dragon. Chronos could see what was going on though.
“Are you two fighting over my future fiancée?” Chronos asked.
“Fighting is such a strong word. It’s more like a minor disagreement than anything truly serious. We just wanted your opinion for clarification purposes.” Luna reassured him, but Chronos had seen his mother act like this before. Whenever he caught the two of them arguing, his mother always took it upon herself to downplay the squabble.
“I guess I’d want her to be smart, pretty, and strong willed. Someone who isn’t afraid to speak their mind.” Chronos told her.
“I see. All those sound like qualities Charity possesses.” Luna smiled as Spike rolled his eyes.
“Charity? I suppose she’d be all right, but I want somepony who’s not quite so into themselves.”
“Huh? It looks like Charity isn’t as perfect as she seemed.” Spike said as Luna stuck a fork deep into her salad.
“If there was any mare I’d marry though, it’d probably be Clover.” Chronos said causing the mare to nearly choke on a cherry tomato. As Clover managed to clear her throat, she saw Spike and Luna looking at her.
“You want to marry her!” Luna said pointing a hoof at the mare who was completely flustered mare.
“I don’t want to marry anyone, but Clover is as good as option as Charity. She might even be better.” Chronos explained.
“W-w-will you excuse us for a moment?” Clover asked without waiting for an answer. She stood up and grabbed the prince from the table. Once the two of them were in the hall, Clover let out a sigh of relief.
“What’s wrong? Why’d you want to leave? I think they were warming up to the idea.” Chronos said looking at his parents through the door. The two of them were talking, but his mother looked especially upset. Chronos wondered if she was so dead set on Charity that saying he’d marry another mare made her angry.
“Why’d you say all those things back there?”
“I’m trying to give you advantage. We need them to like you, remember?”
“But you said… I mean… Do you really think I’m all those things you mentioned?” Clover asked looking down.
“Of course, I do.” Chronos said.
“What about that last part?” Clover said making circles in the carpet with her hoof.
“You mean about being strong willed?” Chronos wondered.
“The part about me being better than Charity.” Clover corrected him. Charity was considered by many ponies the highest standard of beauty. She didn’t like it.
“Yeah, I mean she can be pretty overbearing sometimes, but I mean it’s easier to be around with you.” Chronos said taking the air out of his compliment.
“Oh, that was it, huh?” Clover said feeling a bit depressed.
“Are you okay?” Chronos asked her.
“Yeah, I’m fine. We should go back in.” Clover said hiding her disappointment. As the two of them walked back in, Spike and Luna stopped their conversation. Clover noticed the princess was even angrier with her than before. Something she didn’t even think was possible.
“If you’ll excuse me, I must attend to my duties.” Princess Luna said standing up and leaving the room. Spike walked out with her.
“It seems like she’s really angry with me.” Clover whispered to the prince.
“Oh, she’s not angry with you.” The prince told her.
“Really?” The mare watched as the princess left the room. Princess Luna cast a hot white glare at her that sent chills up her spine.
“She’s past angry. She’s absolutely furious.” Chronos told her. Clover could only gulp as the day ended. She had sex with the prince, befriended one princess, and made an enemy of another. Today was her first day as the prince’s assistant and it was already the craziest day of her life. She had the distinct feeling that things wouldn’t get any calmer as the search for the prince’s bride continued.
Meanwhile
“Maybe this should be the last batch, Charity. I don‘t think there‘s any taste testers left.” The pegasus said looking at the incapacitated servants and chefs who littered the floor of the kitchen. Some of the clutching their stomachs in pain and groaning. The lucky few were rendered completely unconscious.
Charity’s cooking had gotten worse with each attempt. The debutante’s victim started to drop one by one. Each one to scared to say no, despite seeing the person before them fall before their eyes. Melody went from helping Charity with cooking to tending to the victims of her cooking.
Charity’s sanity had also deteriorated with each failed attempt. The mare usually pristine white fur was caked with flour and egg shells. Her blue eyes were like dots as she pulled another batch of “cookies” out of the oven.
“Nonsense, Mr. Tweeter can try them!” She said eyeing the green hummingbird who flew behind one of Melody’s purple wings. Melody looked at the cookies. They looked fine, but if they were enough to take down a full grown pony, a tiny little green hummingbird wouldn’t have a chance.
“I’d like to try these.” Melody said taking it upon herself to protect her precious pet.
“Say ah!” Charity said levitating the treat towards the mare’s mouth. Melody opened her mouth and prepared herself for the worst. As the cookie touched her tongue, the most amazing thing happened.
“It’s delicious!” Melody said happily chewing the tasty treat.
“You aren’t just saying that, are you?” Charity asked suspicious of her reaction. One of the staff had tried to compliment her but he fell to the floor in agonizing pain.
“Honest, it’s really good.” Melody said taking a cookie and sharing it with Mr. Tweeter. Charity took a cookie and nibbled it.
“It is. I did it!” She cackled wildly over her first successful attempt.
“Congratulations, Charity. I’m sure you’ll be able to get Spike’s approval with this.”
“Tomorrow, I will present these to Sir Spike and assume my rightful place as the frontrunner. You two clean up this mess.” Charity said looking at two servants in pain on the floor.
“Urgghh….” They groaned in agony.
“Spike shall see me as the only possible choice and I shall fulfill my destiny. I will succeed where my mother failed.” The mare laughed.

Chronos' Sexual Revolution
The Stallion Who Would Go To War
Chronos’ Sexual Revolution
Chapter 6
The Stallion Who Would Go To War
Charity didn’t always hate her mother’s name. In truth, Rarity was somepony she wanted to emulate in her younger days as a filly. As beautiful as she was generous, everyone who was anyone admired and respected her mother. Working her way up from a tiny boutique in Ponyville, she had become the greatest authority on all fashion in Equestria.
The seeds of Charity’s resentment towards her mother took root when she got her cutie mark. A brilliant shining diamond that was the envy of every pony for miles. She had earned it at a young age when she was eating ice cream with Chronos and offered her cone to him when he dropped his, despite the ice cream cart being completely sold out. The sacrifice was enough to earn her a cutie mark representing her joy of giving.
At her cuteceaneara, it was brought up more than once that her cutie mark was similar to her mother’s. She laughed it off at first, but it came up again and again. Eventually, she began to feel like she was in her mother’s shadow. No matter how hard she tried. She was always compared to Rarity.
So a few years later when a pony made innocuous comment about being like her mother, she made a point to punish him severely for his trespass. The comments had stopped, but the mare knew better than to think the whispers ended there. She needed to do something her mother had tried but never accomplished.
As a little filly, Charity would remember her mother telling her about the first time she went to the Galloping Gala in the hopes of courting Prince Blueblood. It was not meant to be as she found him to be more of a frog than an actual prince. Eventually, she met Fancypants and decided to give up on becoming a princess entirely. Charity was in a prime position to succeed where her mother had failed.
She was five when she first met the precocious colt who was only three at the time. She remembered the big goofy smile he gave her. He had a few teeth missing at the time, but it didn’t seem to bother him in the slightest. Initially, she found him to be gross and immature. For a young prince, the colt didn’t seem to carry himself with much class. He was always getting into trouble. Playing pranks, stealing snacks, and generally making a mess of whatever he could get into.
Yet she found herself inexplicably drawn to him. Looking back it was probably his reckless attitude that drew her in. Everypony and everything around her was so neat and proper, but Chronos, who was a prince no less, seemed to be the exact opposite of that. He wanted to get dirty and act wild. She found herself following him on more than one occasion and usually getting into trouble alongside him.
As time went on, she found her feelings for him change. She didn’t realize it herself till she saw him playing with other ponies besides her, especially other fillies. If a filly tried to join in, she’d always make up some excuse as to why they couldn’t play together. Chronos being oblivious would always insist on letting as many ponies join in as possible. Eventually, it got to the point where it caused a huge rift between the two and Chronos started to avoid her.
As the years went on, the prince gained more friends and Charity found herself around the prince less and less. Despite spending less time together, she still held a spot in her heart for the prince. Even when he started sleeping around, she still believed they would be together. When she overheard his parents arranging a party to find a bride for Chronos, she knew it was her destiny to be at his side.
As she walked the halls of the castle, the guards all stepped aside without trying to stop her. It was about time they recognized their future princess. When she married Chronos, she decided to do something special for them. It was important to reward those under you, especially when they recognized your imminent authority.
She turned down the hallway of Chronos’ room and found a plain white mare with a short blond mane cropped around her neck just below her chin. She was standing outside his room, but wasn’t actively trying to get his attention. Charity had seen plenty of mares banging on the prince’s door confessing their love or asking for just one more night. However, the mare she saw now was more focused on the outside of his rather than in. Charity didn’t really care what she was doing though. She had seen the prince’s groupies come and go. This one would be on her way soon enough.
Charity made a habit of ignoring the poor wretches that slept with the prince. All of them seemed to be under the impression that the prince could fall for an average mare. She almost felt bad for them. Almost.
Still she could see why they fell for him. In her weaker moments with the prince, she found herself wanting to be taken by him. That cute, little alicorn with the big smile and several teeth missing had grown into one of the handsomest and eligible bachelors in all of Equestria. Even if he wasn’t an alicorn or royalty, he’d be quite the catch on his looks and natural talent alone.
As she walked up to the prince’s door, the mare made no attempt to move out of the way. Even the most lovesick peons knew, it wasn’t wise to get between her and the prince. She stopped in front of her giving her a chance to move aside, but the mare remained in her spot staring at her with a defiant look.
“Prince Chronos is sleeping and has requested that he not be disturbed.” The mare rattled off as if she was speaking to some pony off the street. Charity was prepared to give her the benefit of a doubt however. Chronos had obviously put the poor dear here to keep her out. If anypony was to blame, it was him.
“Listen, I understand you think you’re doing the right thing, but it’s a matter of grave importance that I see the prince. Let me through and I promise you won‘t get in trouble.” Charity said in an understanding tone. She had used those words before..
“I’m sure it can wait until the prince wakes up. If you wish, I’d be more than happy to leave a message for him.” The mare said shooting her down. Charity patience was wearing thin. It was time to pull out the heavy artillery.
“I’m sure you know who I am. I’m Charity, the most prominent debutante in Canterlot and close personal friend of the prince. He’ll be quite angry if he finds you turned me away.” Charity warned.
“Be that as it may. He ordered me to keep all visitors out. If he’s angry with me for turning you away, I’ll accept the consequences later.” She said not intimidated in the least. Charity was secretly fuming behind the smile she wore.
“If Princess Luna and Spike wanted to enter the room, you can’t tell me you’d say no to them.” The unicorn said trying not to become too angry.
“The prince said absolutely no one is to enter his room and disturb his rest. I’d be obligated as his assistant to keep them out as well, if it came down to it.”
“You’re insane! You would tell Princess Luna and Spike that they couldn’t visit their own son in their own castle!” The debutante shouted losing her cool. Her insolence had pushed her over the edge. She had no respect for the order of things. Charity was through talking to her. She’d make sure Chronos fired this wretch at once.
“I’m going in and there’s nothing you can do to stop me!” She said as her horn glowed and she zapped out of sight. Clover instantly did the same. The two mares ended up a few paces left of the door. Charity with a shocked look on her face. She could have swore she meant to teleport inside the prince’s room. Why was she still outside then?
“If you continue to make a ruckus, I’ll be forced to asked you to leave.” The mare said with the same neutral look on her face she had since she walked up.
“You! What did you do?” Charity said practically seething with rage.
“I warned you once. If you continue to make a ruckus, I’ll have to ask you to leave.” The mare repeated herself.
“WARN ME! You’ll be lucky if you can shine hooves for living once I’m down with you.” She said teleporting again and once again found herself outside his room in front of this mare. This continued for awhile. The hall filled with flashes of light as if several cameras had gone off and didn’t stop. After awhile both mares were exhausted.
“I… will not let… you through. Please leave… the premises.” The mare said breathing heavily. It was the final straw as Charity raised her hoof and prepared to slap her. Fortunately, a figure spoke that stopped her from doing so.
“I thought I sensed a magical disturbance in the castle.” Princess Celestia said as she approached the two mares.
“It’s nothing, your highness. I was just visiting the prince.” Charity said immediately lowering her hoof and fixing her mane.
“No one is allowed to see the prince. He asked me to deter all visitors while he rested.” The mare said bowing before the princess.
“Is that so, Prince Chronos? Why don‘t you come out and explain yourself?” She called out as she opened the door to his room and the prince fell forward into the hall.
“Hehe, ladies.” He chuckled as he got to his hooves.
“You’re awake!” The two unicorns said glaring at him.
“Why don’t you tell them why you set this up?” Princess Celestia asked.
“Set it up? I don’t know what you mean.” He said acting innocent.
“You placed Clover here knowing Charity would make her daily visit. You also couldn’t sleep through all that spell casting right outside your door. I detected their presence across the castle. I find it hard to believe you wouldn’t have come out before me unless you knew what was going on. Am I right?” Princess Celestia asked.
“I can’t get anything past you, Aunt Celestia. Can I?” He sighed.
“I’d be more worried about these mares you tricked than me. It was good seeing you, nephew. Have a nice day, you two.” The princess teleported away as the mares stepped towards him.
“If you give me a moment, I can explain.” Chronos said putting his hooves up. The two mares looked at each other and back to him.
“Well?” Charity said awaiting an explanation.
“Threesome?” He shrugged as he couldn’t think of a good lie. He couldn’t remember who slugged him first, only that he was struck twice in quick succession. He woke up to see Clover sitting at his side and Charity long gone.
“You’re still here. That’s good.” Chronos said getting to his hooves.
“I’m still thinking about leaving. Why’d you really pull that stunt?” She asked.
“Charity is the other mare I chose to bear my children. I wanted to see how you two interacted. If all goes according to plan, you’ll both be carrying my foals. I was hoping you two would get along.” He said shaking his head.
“I haven’t decided to carry your child yet. After this little stunt, you’re lucky I didn’t quit.” She told him.
“Come on, Clover. I think it‘s time you dropped this little act of yours. You want to do this just as much as I do.”
“Oh, what makes you say that?”
“What was it said last night in front of my parents? I was reckless and rude. You’re smart enough to not hang around a guy like me, but you’re still here. I’ve asked a lot of you, Clover. More than any stallion should ask of a mare he just met yesterday has any right to. Why are you still here if you don‘t want to do this?”
“To be honest, I don’t know. I feel like I should hate you sometimes, but I can’t bring myself to.”
“Maybe the spell worked after all and you do love me.” Chronos guessed.
“Don’t get your hopes up. I don’t feel any differently about you since you cast that spell. I might actually respect you less after what just happened.”
“Hey, what if I let you name the foal?”
“Wouldn’t I get a say in the first place seeing as I gave birth to it?” She pointed out.
“I know, but I won’t fight you on it. Whatever you want to name it and I’ll accept it no matter what.”
“Any name I want?”
“It sounds like you have one in mind. Go on! Let me hear the name of our firstborn.”
“I’ve always been partial to name Zeus.”
“Really?” Chronos said.
“You said you wouldn’t fight me on it.”
“I know. It’s just there are so many names and you chose that one so quickly. What if it‘s a girl too?”
“I like the name Zeus. If it’s a girl, I’ll think of something else.”
“Fine, I suppose we should get started then. Shall we go to your place or mine?” He joked as he tried to put a leg around her, but she backed away.
“What are you doing?”
“I didn‘t think I had to explain how to make a foal to you, Clover.”
“I made a promise to Sir Spike that I wouldn’t have sex with you as long as I was living next to you. I plan to keep that promise.”
“Ugh! You know you’re too good sometimes.”
“You could learn a thing or two about being good.” Clover said batting his hoof away as he tried to touch her flank.
“I’d rather be naughty. If we‘re not going to have fun, let‘s eat breakfast.”
“Is your mother going to be there?” Clover asked hesitantly.
“I doubt it. She usually rests most mornings. Princess Celestia should be there though.” Chronos said walking towards the dining room.
“Your mother really doesn’t like me.” She said following him.
“Can you blame her? You insulted her only child and questioned her parenting skills. I think any mother would be unhappy with someone who did that.”
“Do you think I should apologize?” She wondered aloud.
“That’s the worst thing you could do. If you meant what you said and then tried to apologize for it, my father would lose all respect for you. Seeing as he likes you that’d be a bad thing.”
“So either you mother hates or your father doesn’t respect me?”
“It’s not all that bad. My father likes you so that’s good. We just need to get my mother to like you.”
“How do we do that?”
“That’s the hard part. You see my mother has a bride in mind for me already. She’s never said it outright, but she’s been hinting at Charity as a potential bride for years.”
“How am I supposed to beat Charity?”
“Hold on!” Chronos said putting a hoof out to stop her. They stopped outside the door of the dining where Charity’s voice could be heard.
“I hope you enjoy them. I made them especially for you.” Charity said in a cheery tone.
“I never pegged you as the cooking type. These are pretty good. Did you make them yourself?” He asked eating another one of the cookies.
“I wanted to do something special for you, Sir Spike. You work so hard that I took up lessons to show my appreciation.
“She knows.” Chronos said turning around dramatically.
“Knows what? What’s wrong?” Clover asked.
“Charity doesn’t do manual labor, especially if it involves getting dirty. She’d never cook anything for anyone as long as there was another pony around to do it for her.”
“Aren’t you making a big deal out of this? She just made cookies.” Clover wondered.
“When we played house, she had servants prepare imaginary food. If Charity actually cooked something, she must have had a reason for it, but why would she…”
“What is it? What are you thinking?” Clover asked as the prince was deep in thought.
“She knows about my parent’s plans to marry me off. If she can sway my dad, it’ll ruin everything. Come on, Clover. We’re going.” He said standing next to her.
“Going where?”
“To get help. Charity has cast the first volley. This is war.” He said teleporting them away.
Author's Note
This chapter is a primer for the next part. The return of Prince Chronos' friends is nigh. Sorry for the shortness of this chapter. I promise a much longer chapter next time. Next week's update is Candy Girl.
Chronos' Sexual Revolution
The Stallion Who Would Plot
Chronos' Sexual Revolution
The Happy Hourglass was nearly desolate as the prince paced in front of the only occupied booth. His hoofsteps echoed off the hardwood floor as he walked passed brown tables with red stools carefully stacked on them.
"You do know some of us were actually working?" Silver Sword said rubbing his templed as tried to soothe the mother of all headache. The grey stallion's dark blue glasses rested atop his spiky brown mane as he remembered closing around two and not getting home till late last night. This equated to a less than ideal amount of sleep when Prince Chronos called a meeting at seven.
"For once, I agree with Silver Sword. We just closed up and I'm exhausted." The pink unicorn yawned as she used her magic to braid her red and white mane into one multicolor ponytail.
"Come on, guys. Is that any way for my royal council to behave when their prince summons them in his time of need?"
The group collectively groaned as Clover looked on in confusion from the side. She had no idea that the prince had a royal council comprised solely of his friends. It also seemed like a dubious honor by the way they reacted to it.
"Not that royal council stuff, PC? Every time you bring that up it means we get into all sorts of trouble." The large, dark red stallion sighed heavily as he pushed the bangs of his tan afro out of his eyes. The lumbering giant seemed to dwarf his compatriots as he tossed his head back in frustration.
"Let's hear him out, guys. If Chronos is in trouble, it's our duty as his friends to help him out right?" The blue haired vixen said as her amber eyes staring at her beloved. It was no secret that the auburn colored pegasus harbored romantic feelings for the prince that made it hard to consider her a less than objective source when it came to judging him, especially when he wanted to do something crazy.
"See why can't you guys be as supportive as Strelka?" Chronos commended the mare.
"Fine! Whatever it is you wanted to talk about had better be important, I was having the most wonderful dream about Charity and I before you woke me up. We were having the most wonderful picnic by a stream. She-" Silver Sword was interrupted when Pixie decided to voice her displeasure.
"Ugh! Please stop before I puke." The unicorn said putting her hoof over her mouth. "Go on, Chronos."
"As you all know my parents have decided to marry me against my will in a month, this action has led me to try to sabotage the process by planting Clever Clover in the competition to win. Together, my parents could no longer dictate my love life and I would be free to continue my legacy unabated by their constant demands."
"Could you cut to the chase and get to why you called us here?" Silver Sword yawned.
"Charity has discovered my parents' plan and has gone on the offensive. If left alone, she could very well be the one my parents choose." Silver Sword jumped to attention at those words. His eyes grew wide behind those rectangular frames.
"Are you saying my beloved Charity could end up married to you?" Silver Sword said as the idea sickened him to his very core.
"You do know your beloved Charity doesn't know you exists and wants to marry him." Pixie pointed out. The pegasus would not be deterred as he slammed his hooves on the wooden table and stood up. He puffed his chest outward and spread his wings as far as they could stretch. The half exhausted look on his face was replaced by one of unwavering dedication.
"I hereby swear that I shall do everything in my power to make sure Charity does not end up wih Prince Chronos." He proclaimed. Pixie magically tipped the end of the table upward causing the grey stallion to lose his balance and crash to the floor.
"You're a real piece of work, Silvie." The unicorn grumbled as she set the table back down.
"Chronos." Clover whispered.
"Yes, Clover." He whispered back as he watched Silver Sword and Pixie Stix argue.
"Silver Sword wouldn't happen to know about your special plans for Charity, would he?"
"Not yet, he doesn't. I'm waiting for him to realize that Charity doesn't like him before I tell him."
"Shouldn't you let him know now? If he's helping you with this plan, he has a right to know."
"Come on, Clover. He's going to have enough on his plate when he realizes Charity doesn't like him. I'll tell him later."
Clover looked to Silver Sword who was complaining about Pixie's bad attitude. He had feelings for Charity. Even if he had no chance with her, ask him to assist without knowing everything was wrong. It was taking advantage of a friend. Something Twilight Sparkle wouldn't stand for and neither would she.
"Either you tell him or I will." She delivered her ultimatum loud enough for everypony to hear.
The prince was instantly put on the spot as all eyes turned towards him. Silver Sword and Pixie stopped arguing as they wanted to know what there was to tell. The room was filled with an uneasy tension as the prince looked towards the pegasus. There was no going back now. Clover made sure of that.
"There's something you should know about my plan before we go any further, Silver Sword." Chronos sighed.
"What is it?" Silver Sword asked.
"Charity is one of the mares I chose to help me carry on legacy. If all goes according to plan, she would eventually end up carrying my foal like Clover. I haven't asked her-" Chronos was interrupted as the stallion ran up and clocked him as hard as he could. The alicorn was sent reeling back into a table stacked with stools. He clung to the table as the stools clattered loudly on the floor. Silver Sword was about to take another shot but Pixie grabbed him from behind.
"You fucking jerk! When were you going to tell me, huh? Before or after you fucked her behind my back?" The pegasus shouted struggling to break free of the unicorn's grasp.
"Calm down, Silver Sword! That's enough!" Pixie exclaimed. The pegasus was like a wild animal as he swung his hooves wildly. His eyes burned with rage as he glared at the crestfallen prince. The unfairness of it all was what drove his anger. Chronos could quite literally have any mare in Equestria. The fact that he wanted not just Charity but others as well was enough to make him lose it. It was beyond selfish to him, bordering on spiteful.
"Are you alright, Chronos?" Clover said stepping around a fallen stool to help him up. Strelka came to the prince's side as well while Big Red helped restrain Silver Sword. The pegasus had grown weary struggling against the combined might of Pixie and Red. He let his hooves fall as he realized how pointless it was to try to push past an earth pony of Red's size. He watched as Chronos stood up and faced him.
"I'm sorry, Silver Sword. I was going to tell you when you finally realized that Charity doesn't have any feelings for you." Chronos explained as he felt the sore spot left on his cheek.
It was different coming from Chronos. Silver Sword had gotten that kind of talk from Pixie all the time. It was easy to shrug it off when she made a remark about the mare not knowing his name or caring enough to pay attention to him. It was another thing to hear it from Prince Chronos now. He couldn't ignore it or play it off as being misinterpreted.
"I need a moment, guys." Silver Sword sighed as he shambled away. His friends watched as the stallion made his way to a stool at the bar. It was particularly hard for Pixie to see him like this. She had always given him a hard time about his crush on Charity. Partially because of her own feelings for him, but mostly because she hoped to soften the blow when he realized it wasn't going to happen. She wanted to do something for him now that he had realized the truth.
"He probably shouldn't be alone right now. I'll go talk to him. Fill me in later, Strelka." She said trotting behind the bar and pouring him a tall mug of Cherry Jubilee's Special Cider. The stallion didn't pay attention at first till he realized she was using the expensive stuff.
"You should have used the cheap stuff." He complained as she slid the drink across to him. The stallion held his hoof out to stop it and looked at the light pink foam bubbling around the rim.
"I'm trying to cheer you up and you still find a way to cheap about it." She sighed as he took a sip despite his objection. He stared straight ahead into the mirror behind the bar and saw a familiar sight. The downcast eyes as they coddled their preferred beverage like it was the most precious thing in Equestria. A lost look on their face as they tried to figure out something that couldn't be found at the bottom of a cup. Another pony drinking to escape his problems.
He always found it pathetic, but Pixie didn't. She always offered a listening ear and occasionally free drink to those who came here looking for a brief respite from the harshness of reality. He always gave her a hard time about it, complaining of hurting profits and neglecting wealthier customers. She never listened though. Now here he was in the same position of those ponies who cut into his bottom line by distracting his bartender with their inane problems. The irony wasn't lost on him as he tossed the drink back. The sweet liquid burning his throat as he downed the rest in one go. An exhale of relief escaped his lips as he placed the empty mug back on the bar.
"You were right, you know." He said looking into the bottom of his drink.
"I know." She said trying to levitate his drink back but he held his hoof over the top of it holding it in place. He knew a refill was coming and he didn't want anymore pity.
"It just not fair. He could have any mare in the world. It's so damn easy for him. I finally meet a mare I like and he takes her. I mean I'm not so good with the ladies, but I thought I had a chance this time. Sounds pretty stupid, right?"
"Come on, Silvie. A high maintenance broad like that would've killed a cheapskate like you. You should look a little closer to home. Maybe there's somepony out there for you and you already met her." She said walking over and taking his mug for cleaning.
"You really think so?" He asked lightening up a bit.
"I know so." She blushed as she rinsed out his mug. His eyes grew wide as he looked up at her. A realization dawning in his mind as he looked upon the unicorn's flushed cheeks. Thoughts formed and connections emerged as he played back moments in his mind. It all lead to a conclusion that should've seemed obvious to even the most plain observer.
"Do you like me?" He asked causing the mare to grip the mug so tightly that it slipped up into the air. She fumbled the cup for a few seconds before finally catching it. She looked over to see Silver Sword trying to stifle his laughter. The stallion saw the anger on her face as her horn started to glow and tried to cover his mouth as the giggling wouldn't stop.
"You jerk! I pour my heart out to you and you laugh at me!" She grumbled angrily.
"I'm not laughing at you, I swear. It's just I thought you didn't even like me."
"I admit that sometimes you'll say something stupid or hurtful that makes me wonder why I feel anything for a pony like you. I mean you're like a foal who never learned to stop and think before he says something."
"Hey, you said you had a crush on me, right? Shouldn't you be a little more complimentary?"
"I can't help it if you don't have many good qualities. You're rude, cheap, and a total stick in the mud. Honestly, I can see why you're not so popular with the mares." She said striking a blow to the stallion's ego.
"If you came over here to cheer me up, you're doing a terrible job right now."
"You do have one good quality though."
"What's that?"
"You're honest."
"Honest?"
"You speak your mind. It may not seem like all that much to you, but it's really rare to find somepony who will tell you what's on their mind no matter what." The mare admitted as she put the mug away. It was easy to mistake it for cruelty when the stallion said something harsh or hurtful. She knew better than that. He just spoke without filtering his words and the result was whatever he really thought. He gave ponies exactly what they asked for and it made him look bad when he gave an honest answer.
"You just said I was like a foal earlier. Now you're saying you like it. Could you make up your mind already?" The staliion said shaking his head.
"My feelings are complicated, okay! The important thing is I have feelings for you and now you know. So what are you going to do?" Pixie said looking into his eyes. The stallion quickly looked away. He wasn't ready to deal with this, especially after finding out about Chronos' plans for Charity. He didn't necessarily want to turn her down, but he needed time to think about this.
She was one of his oldest friends. If things ended badly, it could affect everything. If he turned her down, he could be avoiding significant trouble down the line should a breakup become inevitable. There was also the fact that it would be his first romantic relationship. Pixie had far more experience than him in this regard. She'd been on dates and done all sorts of stuff. He hadn't even experienced his first kiss yet. There was no comparison. Pixie was probably lightyears ahead of him when it came to intimacy.
Still it wasn't like she was unaware of his lack of experience. She'd probably pretty understanding if he made a mistake. Pixie was also pretty cute. She was no Charity of course, but then again who else was. The unicorn also had a pretty easygoing personality when he wasn't on her bad side. There were a few times when she managed to make him crack a smile with her relaxed attitude.
"I accept your offer." He tried to act confident but it came out more than a bit stiff and awkward. Pixie was happy to hear his answer but couldn't help laughing at him for his flawed delivery.
"My offer, huh?" Pixie smiled as the the pegasus blushed.
"What else was I supposed to do? I'm new at this." He said quickly becoming embarassed. Pixie felt bad for teasing her new beau. It was just so cute how innocent he was to all this.
"You don't have to say anything. Just do this." She looked into hs eyes and leaned over the bar. She placed a hoof on the back of his neck tussling the spiky, brown hair as she pulled him close. The unicorn giggled playfully as their breath mingled together. The smell of cherry cider tickling her nose.
As they're lips met, she felt him push in ever so slightly. She could sense his apprehensiveness meting away as he started to move his head forward. She pulled away before he got too bold though. Her hoof sliding over his neck and under his chin. The shellshocked look on the stallion's face was priceless.
Cheers and whistles erupted from the other side of the bar breaking Silver Sword's trancelike state almost immediately. He turned to find his friends hooting and hollering after them like it was an event at the Equestria Games.
"You saw all that?" He said as his entire face went red.
"We didn't just see it. We heard you talking the entire time." Red pointed out.
"I'm so glad you 'accepted her offer'." Strelka winked.
"If you heard us, you should've said something. Didn't anyone teach you it's rude to listen to other ponies conversations? This is totally unacceptable. Aren't you upset about this?" He asked Pixie. The unicorn smiled as she rubbed one of his flushed cheeks.
"They were going to find out sooner or later. What's the point in getting mad about it now? Besides, it means we can kiss all we want in front of them." She leaned in for another peck, but the pegasus pulled back and turned away.
"What? I'm not kissing you in front of other ponies. I don't even like it when other ponies kiss in public. Why would I do that with you?" The stallion let out an indignant huff as the mare stood their fuming.
"Are you serious? You won't kiss me in public because you care more about what other ponies think." The stallion laughed derisively as he adjusted his glasses.
"Hmph! I don't care what other ponies think. It's the fact that displays of affection in public have no place in civilized society. If you want to be my marefriend, I expect you to have the common decency to hold your animalistic lust till we're in a more private setting." He said in a haughty tone.
"Normally, I'd hurt you for saying something like that, but seeing as we're in a relationship now, I'm not going to do that." She said as she smiled and walked over to Silver Sword's side.
"Well, I'm glad to hear that." Silver Sword smiled. It was nice to know that she wasn't going to act so aggressively towards him. This relationship might work out better than he expected.
"From now on, I'm going to do this." She jumped up and licked the outside of his left ear from top to bottom. The stallion recoiled in surprised from the strange sensation.
"What was that?" He said placing a hoof over his ear.
"I'm going to do something lewd to you every time you say something that makes me angry, whether you like it or not."
"You wouldn't dare?"
"Try me." She smiled back devilishly.
"If you two are finished discussing your newfound romance, I'd love to invite you two to a fancy party." Chronos said catching their attention.
"What are you on about now?" Silver Sword asked.
"Chronos wants us to attend the ball to select his bride. We're going to spy on the competition while Clover attempts to impress Princess Luna and Sir Spike." Strelka explained.
"It's become clear to me now that there are too many variables for me and Clover to handle alone. We're going to need help. I'd understand if you want to sit this one out." Chronos looked to Silver Sword. He knew this might be a bit much to ask considering the tension between them right now. Pushing him to assist in his plans was the last thing he wanted to do.
Silver Sword hadn't forgiven him for hiding his true intentions. He didn't really want to help him or see Charity anytime soon. He still considered Chronos his friend but it would take sometime before he could forgive him.
"Going to a ball sounds like a wonderful idea. Right, Silvie?" Pixie said nudging him.
"Actually, I was-"
"A magical night of dancing and romance followed by a retreat to our own hotel where we end the night together. Doesn't that sound nice?" She said leaining in close.
"I don't know. Two hotel rooms in Canterlot on the night of a ball sounds really expensive. Besides, I'm not so sure-"
"Ugh! We'd share a room, you idiot!"
"Share? Share! You mean like a couple?" He asked.
"Lots of animalistic in a private setting. Just the way you like it." She whispered causin the stallion to change his mind rather quickly.
"I suppose you will need me and we are friends. Count me in... as long as the hotel room is comped, of course." He said adjusting his glasses.
"Of course. You'll all want for nothing during your stay. I'll see to it personally. Now that we're all in agreement I'm going to need Big Red's assistance with something." Chronos turned to the stallion who saluted.
"Just leave the heavy lifting to me, Silvie!" He said proudly.
"No heavy lifting, big guy. Charity has a friend named Melody. I want you to get close to her. Charity tells her everything so I need you to get her talking."
"I don't know, PC. I'm not so good with the ladies." The stallion said scratching his head. Red was well aware of his explosively quick temper and how it made others react. It was hard to talk to anypony without getting angry and shouting at them. A date seemed out of the question.
"You won't be alone, pal. I'll ask Charity for a double date. You just listen to me and it should be easy." He told him.
"If you say so, I guess it should be easy." He sighed.
"That's the spirit! In the meantime, Clover and I will work on impressing my mother. If she doesn't completely hate her by the ball, I think we'll have made some progress. Any questions?"
"Can we go back to bed? I really don't want to fall asleep in a bar." Strelka let out a long drawn out yawn as she stretched her extremeties. The rest of them mumbled similar sentiments.
"Oh fine! I suppose you can go to sleep. I need to talk to Clover anyway." The prince watched his friends exchange goodbyes as they walked away. Clover looked to the prince as they were alone in the bar.
"Is something wrong?" She asked.
"You called me out on what could've been a huge mistake. You not only saved me from losing one of my closest friends but you helped Pixie and Silver get together. That was quite a feat in and of itself. They've been on the verge of getting together for awhile now. It was good to see it finally happen."
"So what's next?"
"We go see my mother. You two need to get better acquainted after all. No time like the presence after all."
"Isn't she asleep? Can't we wait till she gets up on her own?" She asked hesitant about waking an alicorn who didn't seem to care for her.
"We're not going to wake her up. That'd be rude."
"Oh thank goodness!" She sighed.
"We're going into her dreams!"
