Prologue: Loving Arms

-At Sugarcube Corner-

Four young fillies sat at the table, nibbling at the cupcakes they had bought using their saved up bits. They could not think of a way to get their cutie marks. A couple of months ago they had created a group called the "Cutie Mark Crusaders" This group was dedicated to trying to find their cutie marks. It's members names were, Applebloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Babs. Babs blew a strand of hair away from her eye, annoyed that she had to do it almost every five minutes. Sweetie was staring off into nothing, in deep thought. Scootaloo was groaning and moaning about how their current situation was boring. Applebloom kept a smile on her face, hoping this would cheer her close friends up. Babs, who was going back to manehatten in four days, was eagerly eating her cupcake.

"This blows... we need an idea and just sitting here is NOT going to help!" Scootaloo complained. The others looked at her in annoyance. Sometimes the attention span of the orange filly was as short as freshly mowed grass.

"The only way were gonna' get our cutie marks is by thinkin' up ideas! Unless ya have an idea?" Applebloom said, tired of her friend's whining and complaining. Sweetie Belle seemed not to notice any of the things going on around her. She was most likely day dreaming about Spike again. Those two had been really serious about their new relationship. They had even caught them going to the movies together and even spending the night together over at the boutique.

"How about helping other ponies? That might be one of our cutie mark!" Babs said, energetically. It was a shame that she had to leave in four days. Applebloom had always felt a certain connection towards her. But then again she had the same feelings toward Scootaloo. She did not have these special feelings towards Sweetie because she was just a friend. She didn't know how to tell Scootaloo and Babs that she... loved them. Yes that was the words she was looking for. She loved them very much. One could say she was almost... in love with them. She was afraid that they didn't feel the same way for her. But this raised another problem. How would she date TWO of them? Would they go along with it?

Scootaloo slouched in her chair, annoyed that they were just sitting there. She had been trying to think up ideas but nothing had come to her. All she could really focus on was how pretty Applebloom and Babs were. Ever since that night in the treehouse with Applebloom she had weird feelings towards her. And then Babs came along and swept her off her hooves as well. Scootaloo did not usually like this namby pamby sissy stuff... but... she could almost say she loved those two fillies. How would she have both of them?

Babs sat at the table, loving every bite of the cupcake she had bought with her saved up bits from working at Sweet Apple Orchards. She looked towards Scootaloo and discretly sighed. How would she ever be able to choose between her and Applebloom? The answer was simple. She had to date both of them, which was going to be a hard feat. She looked up and down Applebloom's body, taking in as much as she could. The way her flank seemed to be suggesting something was enough to induce another sigh. It would never work... they were cousins and Babs didn't think she would ever be with a filly such as herself. She looked towards Scootaloo and her mouth watered. Boy, what she wouldn't give to taste her right now.

Sweetie belle looked out the window of Sugarcube Corner and sighed happily. Just yesterday, her and Spike had made love in her bed. It wasn't the rough stuff they had done those two other times, but a gentle one. She knew her feelings for this small dragon but did he actually feel the same towards her. Was he just leading her on? Was it just some clever ruse to get sex? She didn't know the answers to these questions consciously. But on a deeper level she knew that his feelings were mutual. Now all she needed to do now was think up ways to get their cutie marks... what to do, what to do....

-Twilight's library-

Spike stacked the books up on the bookshelf, daydreaming about Sweetie Belle again. Ever since that one night with her in Rarity's room, it made his feelings toward Rarity turn towards Sweetie. The way she laughed... the way she smiled at him. It was enough to make him melt on the spot. That little filly had been on his mind and in his dreams because of that one event. Spike had deduced that he had never loved Rarity that way but used that as a cover for his embaressing infatuation with Sweetie. After all she was 5 years younger than him and he hadn't known she had harbored these same feelings toward him as well. Or did she?

Twilight looked at Spike with concern. This whole Sweetie belle situation about those two falling in love was a one way ticket to disaster. She cared very dearly for Spike, but not that way, and she didn't want him to get hurt. Then again she cared for Sweetie as well and was worried that Spike would revert back to being in love with Rarity, who would not love him that way. Sure they had done things together but that didn't mean anything... atleast she didn't think so. She watched as Spike struggled to reach the top shelf. She went over and used her magic to telekinetically help him.

"Thanks Twilight." Spike said, smiling at her mother-like figure. She had always been there for him through thick and thin. Whenever he was sad or confused she was always there to comfort him or give him advice. Honestly, he didn't know what he could ever do without her. Dragons were known for having an amazing memory for long term kind of things. He remembered the entrance exam that had gotten her her cutie mark and a metaphorical son. They had been inseperable ever since, doing so many fun things together. He didn't feel any special love towards her because she was like a mother to him. He went back to work and his day dreaming of Sweetie... oh Sweetie....

________________________________________________________________________________

-Rarity's Boutique-

Rarity worked at the sewing machine, desperate to get in some last minute orders from Celestia herself. This was going to seriously help her save the boutique. What perplexed her was that she had never seen Celestia wear a dress of any kind. What had made her want to do so now? Well it was not any of her business. All she needed to do was make the most amazing dress she had ever made before. She used the special diamonds that she only used for very special customers and put them in an intricate pattern that beckoned the eye closer. This was by far her best work yet.

Rarity thought back to that amazing night with Spike. She did not feel any kind of special love towards him or anything. She had noticed something had changed between him and Sweetie belle. They looked into each other's eyes whenever they thought she wasn't looking or stole a kiss when they thought they were alone. At first she thought it was just young foolish love but the way they stared into each other's eyes convinced her otherwise. And she had also seen the same kind of looks that Scootaloo, Applebloom, and Babs gave each other. Although these looks were secretive, which led her to believe that they loved each other but didn't know how to deal with these new feelings. Rarity knew these things because she too fell in love once. It still tore her apart to this day. It was the last day of school before graduation and her lover, Torin had wanted to take her to the movies. She thought back to that dreadful day that had changed her life forever...

"Torin, I can't wait to see this movie. I hear that it is fabulous!" Rarity said, which was met with a smile as they looked in each other's eyes longingly. She only thought that something like this was just in the fairy tale books. he was her prince charming...

They walked down the streets of Ponyville, towards the movie theatre. He stole a kiss along the way, which she was used to. Little did she know was that this would be her last moments with him. She returned the kiss, unwaware the a carriage was ramapging through town. Torin saw this and shoved Rarity out of the way. It hit him head on, causing him to fly back ten feet and land on a couple of ponies. Those ponies scrambled out from under him, quite frightened by this sudden turn of events. the carriage crashed into a house, hurting two other ponies. Rarity slowly got up and ran over to where Torin was. What she saw would haunt her for the rest of her life. A pipe had gone clean through him. It had fallen off of the carriage and he was close to death.

"No no no no... NO.... " Rarity whispered silently. She ran to his side and he slowly looked up at her with those big brown eyes that she had fallen in love with. He smiled weakly and gave her a final kiss of reassurance.

"I'm sorry..." Was all he said before slouching down and dying in front of her. She just sat there holding him in her arms as she watched the light leave his eyes. Her one trrue love had died in her arms... and all she could do was cry.

"No... please don't leave me... please..." She whispered silently as she cried into his shoulder. The pain was unbearable... because the deepest scars never show.

I'm sorry... those words dug into her soul and she could never forget those eyes... she felt a tear on her eyes and wiped a hoof across her face, wiping the tear away. She turned off the sewing machine and cried. Because cry was all that she knew what to do anymore. She was worried that the same thing would happen to Sweetie. She would never want to see her go through that... EVER.

Chapter 1: Blood Ties

(Viewer Discretion is advised. Clopfic 18+ only... unless you're a rebel.)

Applebloom sat silently at her desk, bored out of her mind. Ms. Cherilee was a good teacher and was like a good friend to her but these lessons can get quite hard. Babs didn't go to this school but Cherilee agreed, quite enthusiastically, that it would be good for her to learn. Applebloom was just glad she got sit next to her in class. She looked over to Scootaloo who had her head on the desk, sleeping like always. Ms. Cherilee had gotten mad a lot of times at Scootaloo but she, in the end, accepted it like it was a law of nature or something. Sweetie was staring off into space, a dreamy expression with a smile plastered upon her face. It was so strange to see her like this... it was one night and she was acting like she was in love with Spike. Whatever it is Applebloom would support her friend until the end. She realized she had not been listening for the longest time and looked up at Ms. Cherilee again.

"Can any of you tell me about the coronation of princess Celestia and how long ago it was?" Ms Cherilee said, looking around the room for any volunteers. Suprisingly, Scootaloo raised her hoof, which stunned Ms. Cherilee and the rest of the class. Normally, Scootaloo would just sit there and be quiet, but this time she had actually volunteered.

"Y-yes Scootaloo?" Ms. Cherilee said, excitement in her voice. Scootaloo hesitated at first and then looked at Applebloom and looked back at Ms. Cherilee.

"Well... wasn't it about ten thousand years ago? And... wasn't there this whole thing about the gryphons invading the old palace?" Scootaloo said, suprising the class and Ms. Cherilee even further than they already were. She had volunteered and got it right. This was truly a strange day indeed. They looked at Scootaloo like she had just done something amazing. Scootaloo looked around, with a nervous expression.

"Yes... you're right! Keep it up Scootaloo!" Ms. Cherilee said, enthusiastically. This caused Scootaloo to blush and put her head onto the desk and cover her face with her hooves. Applebloom grinned at Scootaloo and looked back up at Ms. Cherilee, whose smile had widened. The rest of the day, Applebloom kept stealing glances at Scootaloo and Babs. They looked so pretty, it was hard to believe she had not noticed this before. The way Babs's flank curved was enough to make Applebloom's mouth water. She looked at Scootaloo and looked down at her flank. She got a nice view of her flank and the crack. What she wouldn't do to slip her hoof in and... no. If she thought about it anymore she would probably find herself tackling Scootaloo with naughty things planned. She got a hold of herself and paid attention to Ms. Cherilee and her boring lessons.

______________________________________________________________________________

-After Class-

Class was dismissed once the bell rung and the young ponies ran out, laughing. Applebloom got up and narrowly dodged featherweight as he ran past her, not caring if he knocked her over or not. Applebloom glared after him and walked towards the door. She was stopped by Ms. Cherilee who looked at her with concern.

"Are you okay Applebloom? You seemed distant today. Is something wrong?" Ms. Cherilee asked with concern in her voice. Applebloom raised an eye brow and was confused. Oh no... had she given something away when she looked at Scootaloo and Babs? Ms. Cherilee seen her expression of alarm and was immediately suspicious.

"You know, Applebloom. You can tell me anything; you know that right?" Ms. Cherilee said. Applebloom tried to think up something but couldn't. She then decided that the best course of action was to exagerate the truth.

"Well... there is this other pony. ah..." Applebloom began, blushing a deep red. Ms. Cherilee giggled and smiled.

"Come on, you can tell me. You don't even have to tell me who it is" Ms. Cherilee said grinning. Applebloom gave the room another once-over confused on how to go about this awkward situation.

"Well... what if ya like a pony... like like them. And ya don't know what to say?" Applebloom asked, not wanting to give any names out.

"Just tell them how you feel. Chances are, if they feel the same way they will confess as well if you do." Ms. Cherilee said, smiling at the young filly. The lessons in this classroom may be hard and boring but Ms. Cherilee seemed to always know what would cheer Applebloom up. Applebloom thanked her and walked out the door and was greeted with three fillies shooting questions at her.

"Why did Ms. Cherilee need you?" Sweetie Belle asked. Applebloom looked around alarmingly, not knowing what to say.

"Just some homework..." Appleloom said quickly, although by the looks on their faces she didn't think they believed her. But they let it go and they walked down the path, giggling and talking about what they could do for their cutie marks. Applebloom was distant the entire walk to the farm, confused about which filly she wanted to tell. Maybe Sweetie could help her? no... she can't keep a secret. She looked at Babs whose flank moved rather suggestively at Applebloom. Her tail flicked to the side once allowing her to see the nether regions of which she so wanted to be deep in right now. A fleeting glance was all that was needed... Babs was who she had to tell first. Scootaloo had to take up some flying lessons with Rainbow Dash and couldn't come with them. Sweetie Belle was going to go have a date with Spike, which seemed like all they did. Atleast she thought that was all they did on these "dates." After the two other fillies went off their own ways, it was just her and Babs left.Applebloom looked around nervously, unsure of how to do this. Babs looked at her and seemed to know that something was wrong.

"Applebloom... are you okay?" Babs asked, concerned for her friend. Applebloom looked down at the ground for a little bit. How was Applebloom going to tell Babs that she loved her? Sure they had done a few things but that didn't mean anything. Did it?

"Applebloom?" Babs asked, even more concerned with her friend's silence. Babs put a hoof on Applebloom's shoulder to stop her. Applebloom looked off to the side and then looked back up at Babs.

"Babs... do ya love me?" Applebloom asked. Babs looked suprised and then smiled.

"Yeah... why?" Babs asked Applebloom who blushed and looked down at the ground again. She had done things with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle along with Babs so she didn't know if it was just a mutually beneficial kind of thing or...

"Ah just thought that what happened in the barn was just our... horniness? ah think that's what the magazine said it was...." Applebloom asked. All of a sudden Babs kissed her on the lips. Applebloom was suprised at first but then relaxed into it, enjoying every moment.

She pulled away, leaving Applebloom wanting more and said mischeviously, "Why don't we go somewhere... private." Applebloom nodded and they ran off of the path and across the field. They got in behind a bush and Babs immediately started to sloppily make out with Applebloom. Applebloom moaned in return and her eyes were wide. After about ten seconds of awkward kissing, Applebloom got used to the feel of Babs's tounge slide around in her mouth, making contact with her tounge. While they were kissing, Applebloom brought a hoof up to her bow and untied it. Her cherry red hair fell down to her shoulders. The bow was just to keep her hair up whenever she worked but Applebloom had gotten quite fond of it and usually wore it whenever she could. She let the bow fall on the ground and brought the same hoof up to Babs's cheek and stroked her. Applebloom slowly and teasingly moved her hoof across Babs's cheek and gently grabbed a hoofull of her mane. She slowly brought them down into a cuddling position, still kissing and moaning. Babs pulled back and gave her another quick kiss before pulling back. They stared into each other's eyes, hoping that this moment would never end.

Applebloom was the first one to make a move and put a hoof around Babs and pulled them closer. Applebloom could feel Babs's warm breath brush against her now blushing cheeks. The feel of being entwined with her was bringing those strange feelings up again. If this happened to be a dream... she hoped she would never wake up.

"Babs... ah love you so much..." Applebloom said with a hint of a smile touching her lips. Babs innocently smiled back at her and only answered with another make out session, yet not as sloppy as before. Applebloom could feel Babs's hoof slowly trail down her body as she made her way to Applebloom's nether regions. The way her hoof tickled her coat as she made her way caused her to moan into Babs's mouth. As soon as Babs reached her destination, Applebloom gasped as the sensation of being in heaven clouded her mind. Pleasure contracted throughout her body and her stomach quivered and shook as each slow rub sent her reeling. Applebloom felt she wasn't giving Babs enough attention and tried to repeat what Babs had done and slowly moved her small hoof across Babs's stomach, relishing feel of Bab's soft coat. Babs started to moan in pleasure. Applebloom felt Babs's stomach contract as she slowly made her way to the lower regions of her. Applebloom moaned louder as Babs quickened her rubbing. She could feel her lips parting and a few stray strands moving with Babs's hoof and then snapping the connection as she moved to far for it to follow. She repeated this process, the feeling getting more amazing by every second that ticked by.

Every other time they had done something like this it seemed... messier and sloppier. But this felt right... it felt like they were doing something right. Through each other's soft pleasured moans and gasps she could hear the birds tweeting and could feel the wind slowly caress her body and tickle her coat, making her shudder. She paid no heed to this as every surrounding was nothing but a fading thing. If a pony were to come by right now she could care less. Applebloom finally got down to Babs's lips and could feel them seperate as she slowly rubbed and caressed them like they were the most precious thing in the world.

Babs pulled back from Applebloom's lips and said with a content smile on her face, "I love you too Applebloom..." And with that she kept rubbing at Applebloom's wet nether regions and dove in for another kiss. She used her other hoof to stroke Applebloom's cheek and stroke along the back of her head. This had to be a dream to be so... perfect. Applebloom opened her eyes again, still holding the romantic kiss and studied the contours of Babs's body as it contracted and shook. In the sunlight Applebloom caught her breath as she saw the most beautiful sight she had ever seen. She had never noticed this before but the simple innocence and prettiness of Babs could make Applebloom cry with joy. Of all the fillies in the world, she was glad she was coupled with such an amazing pony. At the sight of this, Applebloom was on the verge of release and cried out into Babs's mouth. Babs heard this and rolled on top of Applebloom and then positioned her lips above Applebloom. Applebloom was immensly confused by this and raised an eyebrow.

"Babs what are ya..." Applebloom began, but suddenly gasped as she felt Babs's lips rub up against hers. Whatever she was doing... Applebloom wanted more.

"Oh... Babs... Babs..." Applebloom said between gasps and moans as Babs rocked her world. Babs grinned and then gasped as she felt Applebloom's orgasm and felt the juices rush out and coat her own sex. Applebloom whipped her head back and screamed into her hoof as the full force of her orgasm riveted her body. babs leaned down and kissed Applebloom again, this time having her orgasm with her partner. They both shook as the pleasure ripped their composure apart. They screamed into each other's mouths and rolled around in the grass. After about ten seconds the mind blowing orgasm they had shared subsided to mere embers of whimpers. They got back into a cuddling position and stared into each other's eyes yet again.

"Ya think we should go wash off?" Applebloom asked Babs who snapped out of her trance.

"Can we just sit her for a bit... and hold each other?" Babs asked with hope in her voice.

Applebloom smiled wider and said, "Ya... we can wait... Applejack isn't expecting us back until 5'O clock." Babs smiled again and they cuddled up against each other, loving every intimate moment they shared. At first, Applebloom was confused if Babs actually loved her, but now... there was no doubt in her mind. The feeling was mutual....

For the longest time, they laid there basking in each other's gaze. Every once in awhile they rubbed a hoof through each other's manes or stole a small kiss. Applebloom had never felt anything like this in her entire life and truth of the matter was... she loved Babs seed.

Chapter 2: Oh Spike...

-In Ponyville-

The wind was blowing quite hard today, but that didn't deter Sweetie Belle as she made her way to the outskirts of Ponyville. Spike had sent her a letter a couple of days ago to meet her near the road going to the everfree forest. He said he had a suprise for her. Sweetie could hardly wait as she trotted down the road, just now getting out of Ponyville. The entire time she wondered what this suprise could be. Could it be a picnic of some sorts? Maybe, but by the way he acted when he talked to her yesterday, it might be something sexual in nature. If so, Sweetie was automatically on board. Her crush on him had been there before her and Rarity's great idea to introduce that magazine to Applebloom. She had always seen a kind and caring friend in him... there was just something about that small purple dragon that spoke to her on so many levels. And the way he made love to her... that was something on an entirely different level. She really wasn't good at the whole "sex" thing but she was learning. She could only guess at what he wanted to do with her on this little date of theirs. She just wanted to feel him inside of her so bad right now. The mere thought of it was enough to cause her mouth to water, her nether regions to wetten, and her stomach growl for the taste of his delicious semen. Sweetie was usually not one for extremely dirty thoughts but oh sweet Celestia, she needed him right now....

She went into the field and off of the path and what she heard perplexed her. She heard sharp, muffled moans and some rustling from behind that bush. She cautiously took slow steps toward the bush, careful not to give herself away. It couldn't be any small animal like a raccoon or a rabbit because those bushes were shaking wildly. The bushes settled down after two loud, sharp, muffled shouts. The mystery creatures then started to speak, which the voices were familiar. Applebloom? Babs?

"Ya think we should go wash off?" Who Sweetie guessed was Applebloom said. What were they doing back there?

"Can we sit here... and hold each other for a bit?" What sounded like Babs said. Sweetie then began to grin. It seems her friends her having quite a bit of fun...

"Ya... we can wait... Applejack isn't expecting us back until 5'O clock." Sweetie Belle heard Applebloom say. They then stayed quiet for awhile. She peeked over the bushes and they still had not noticed her there. They were cuddling up, staring into each other's eyes the way Spike had looked at her. They gave each other small kisses, some longer than others.

"Wow... busy?" Sweetie asked while grinning. They snapped their heads up to her in suprise.

"Oh Celestia... ya scared the hay outta us!" Applebloom scolded her friend. Babs seemed relieved it was only Sweetie who had interrupted their fun.

"Yeah! I thought we were busted for sure..." Babs said. Sweetie giggled and then got down off of the bush and walked around to the other side.

"So... what are ya doin' here?" Applebloom asked Sweetie who instantly blushed and giggled again. Applebloom smiled and slowly shook her head, seemingly amused.

"Well... I was on my way to a place where Spike asked me to meet him." Sweetie said, which resulted in giggles from both Babs and Applebloom. Sweetie went on to ask, "You guys wanna' come? I'm sure he wouldn't mind." Applebloom and Babs exchanged looks with each other. They then realized they had not stopped cuddling. They got up and brushed off the grass and dirt.

Applebloom was the first to say, "Sure... unless ya don't wanna' come Babs?" Babs looked at Applebloom and bit her lip, obviously unsure.

Babs then said, "Well... I guess we could." Sweetie felt guilty for interrupting their love making. They seemed so peaceful laying there, staring into each other's eyes. They all set off the other direction, going farther away from the road. Sweetie had Spike to herself three times since they started dating and Applebloom and Babs had not... I guess she could share just this once. After all, they were friends and it was the least she could do. They silently walked to where Spike wanted to meet Sweetie.

"So, why did Spike want to meet you all the way up here?" Babs asked, looking in the direction of the everfree forest, which was too close for comfort. Applebloom wanted to know too.

"Well... he didn't say exactly. Just that he had a suprise for me, which I can probably guess what it is..." Sweetie said dreamily. She couldn't wait to reach Spike because she had so many naughty things planned for that little dragon... he won't be able to walk right for a week. They walked on, the sun beating in their eyes, and finally could see a little dragon on the horizon. Sweetie's excited smile grew larger at the this. Applebloom and Babs, who had been exchanging awkward looks between each other, finally smiled.

"Hey Spike!" Sweetie calle out to him. He looked up and he smiled. His smile faltered and was replaced with confusion when he noticed that she was not alone. Sweetie looked back at her two friends and then back to Spike.

Once they had finally reached him Applebloom said, "Ah hope ya don't mind but Sweetie invited us." Spike just looked from Applebloom, to Babs, and then to Sweetie.

"No, I don't mind." Spike said, with a nervous tone of voice. It was obvious by now that he had wanted Sweetie all to himself. Well, he is going to get used to it even if he doesn't want to. They were her friends and she wasn't going to alienate them from the fun.

"Are you sure? I mean we could go..." Babs said, nervous written all over her face.

"No, I just wasn't expecting others. But you're always welcome!" Spike said, who seemingly gained his composure back. What could he possibly be nervous about? It wasn't like they were going to do something that Applebloom and Babs haven't seen yet. It indeed was a picinic. Spike had set up a red plaid blanket with a basket full of food. He had set out pitchers of drinks and even had some desserts set out.

"This food looks really good!" Sweetie said, her appetite getting the best of her.

"ya, it does..." Applebloom said, her mouth watering from the mere sight of these delicious morsels. Spike told them to dig in and dig in they did. Babs went straight for the cupcakes and Applebloom went for the apple pie.

"So... Spike. Why did you want me all the way out here?" Sweetie asked Spike who looked at Sweetie. He didn't respond immediately, only hesitated and looked to the side.

"Well... I was hoping we could... you know..." Spike said timidly, which made Sweetie blush profusely and giggle. Applebloom and Babs were obvlivous to the flirting that was going on between Spike and Sweetie.

"Well, why not let them have fun too?" Sweetie said, which made Spike's eyes widen. Apparently he didn't think that she would let anypony get near him. It wasn't like she WOULD let anypony get their hooves on his penis but her friends were a different story. They had been with her through the bad times and the good times. When she ever felt sad or confused they were there to help. It was just a shame that Scootaloo wouldn't be able to join in on the fun.

"R-really!?" Spike asked Sweetie who then nodded, which was all she could do since she was giggling uncontrollably. Applebloom and Babs looked up when Spike suddenly yelled. They listened in for a bit and then their eyes widened when they found out what Spike and Sweetie wanted to do with them.

"Whoah... I think I'm a bit too tired right now for something like that..." Babs said, unsure of whether or not to go through with this. Applebloom just stood there, a bit of the applepie crumbling out of the corner of her mouth. She chewed it up and swallowed as fast as she could and then let her jaw drop.

"Ah... well buck... sure!" Applebloom hesitatingly agreed. She didn't normally swear but this was by far a suprise unlike any other. Spike was stumbling on his words, seemingly confused and shocked at the sudden turn of events. Normaly, Applebloom would have giggled at this but she was probably too stunned to do so. Sweetie decided that the only way to get Spike inside of Applebloom was to excite him. She walked over and placed her lips over Applebloom's who just moaned in response. Babs looked over at this and raised an eyebrow. She went back to raiding the basket, looking for something else to eat. Applebloom looked over at Babs, still holding the kiss. Babs must have caught this and stopped her pillaging.

"Go ahead. I don't mind." Babs said indifferently. Applebloom rubbed a hoof across Sweetie Belle's face causing her to shudder. Sweetie pulled back because this was about her and Spike right now. She didn't want to get too into it for fear of her getting too tired for Spike afterwards. Applebloom stood there, seemingly confused on what to do next.

"Go ahead, Applebloom. You and Spike should have some fun." Sweetie said, which caused the farm pony and dragon to blush deeply. They couldn't seem to look each other in the eye. Applebloom mustered up enough courage to hesitantly walk up to Spike and give him a light kiss on the lips and then pulled back, probably embaressed. Spike's blush grew to even deeper levels and Sweetie giggled to herself. Babs seemed to be oblivious to everything that was going on around her. Applebloom gave a startled whimper when Spike covered her mouth with his and cupped her cheeks in his clawed hands. Her eyes hesitantly fluttered shut and she leaned into the kiss with a look of bliss on her face. Even after she had done it with Babs, she still had enough in her to do it with Spike. Sweetie couldn't help but admire her friend.

Applebloom trailed a hoof across Spike's arm, causing him to shudder. Spike moved his right hand up to Applebloom's hair, which was still messy from her experience with Babs. Sweetie watched as he slowly undid the bow and let her hair fall back to her shoulders. Spike moved his lips to Applebloom's neck and slowly trailed a free clawed hand across her shoulders. Her soft moans broke through the silence, when he released the kiss. Sweetie couldn't help but feel hot watching this. She looked down at her vaginal lips, which were all too obvious now. She moved off of the plaid blanket and onto the soft grass because she didn't want to get her wetness all over where they were going to eat. She started rubbing herself off and the pleasured moans kicked off. She shakily looked up to where Babs was. She had looked up and was staring at Spike and Applebloom go to town. She too was getting quite wet but she seemed quite lonely.

"H-hey Babs... you wanna fix that itch?" Sweetie tried to say in her most seductive voice. Babs looked over to Sweetie and smiled a relieved smile.

"Yeah... I don't think I'm going to get anywhere just watching." Babs said. Babs walked towards Sweetie and blew a strand of hair out of her eyes, all the while keeping eye contact with Sweetie. Sweetie laid herself on her back and watched as Babs got over top of her and moved her warm nether lips over Sweetie's. As soon as they made contact Sweetie gasped and whipped her head back onto the ground with her eyes closed tight. Babs just bit her lip and suppressed a moan. Their juices mixed together and formed a small puddle around Sweetie's flank. Since she was on the bottom she could feel the warmth of Babs's juices fall into her folds, making Sweetie moan even louder. They grinded against each other faster and harder, which by then Babs was stifling screams and failing to suppress her moans any further. The squelching noises from them grinding into each other increased in volume as the juices ran out in an even greater abundance.

While Babs and Sweetie were doing this, Spike had laid Applebloom onto the ground and was sliding his forked tounge in between her vaginal lips. She moaned and ground her hooves into the ground. Spike slowly moved his tounge up her nether region and onto her the bottom of her stomach. he trailed his tounge all the way up her stomach, causing her to shudder. The entire time he did this, he never once broke eye contact with her. He slowly moved on top of her and covered her lips with his once again. Applebloom gasped when his stiff member poked and prodded at her. Her gasps of suprise turned to ecstatic moans.

Sweetie heard Spike say to Applebloom, "This might... hurt... but it'll go away and you'll feel great." Applebloom bit her lip and looked off to the side. She seemed very unsure if this was what she actually wanted. She looked back up to Spike and nodded quickly and then closed her eyes, bracing herself for Spike.

Babs and Sweetie were still grinding against each other and the moans were getting louder. Babs had given up trying to not moan too loud and was all but screaming. The feeling was unlike any other. The way an edge of one of her vaginal lips had briefly dissappeared into Sweetie made her gasp and her cheeks blasted into full crimson heat. She could feel the build within her as Babs quickened her strokes. She could barely think as the waves of pleasure overtook her and clouded her mind and vision. Babs suddenly wrapped her hooves around Sweetie's neck and screamed at the top of her lungs as she had an orgasm. Sweetie had never seen any of her friends shoot out this much love juice out. It just kept coming out. She didn't see it of course but she could feel it slam against her vagina. This caused Sweetie to suddenly scream out as she too shot all her pent up juices all over the ground and Babs. She could feel some of it splatter onto her stomach. Babs was the first to be done with her orgasm and went limp on top of Sweetie. Sweetie was not done and writhed and shook as her orgasm ravaged her body. She too fell limp and didn't even bother to wipe away a bit of drool at the corner of her mouth.

Sweetie tiredly looked towards Spike and Applebloom. Spike was all the way in and Applebloom was screaming as he rammed into her. her screams turned quiet but her mouth remained open and her eyes rolled into the back of her head. Sweetie could see her body move with each thrust that Spike performed upon her. Spike growled with each of those thrusts. Applebloom made a small, shaky, whimpering sound as she came all over Spike and on the ground. As it progressed her whimpers turned into screams of ecstasy. Spike slammed his penis in until he could not fit anymore in and came with full force. Spike got off of Applebloom and helped her up. Sweetie could see the semen dripping out of her and wanted a small taste. She got up, without bothering Babs, and went over to Applebloom.

"You think i could have a quick taste there Applebloom?" sweetie asked Applebloom who looked at her in suprise and then to her own flank.

"Sure... but don't get meh excited... I'm plumb tuckered..." Applebloom said, exhaustion evident in the way she got back on her back and closed her eyes tiredly. Wow, Spike really did a number on her. Although Spike was just as tired as she was. Sweetie started to slurp up the semen from within Applebloom who whimpered but just sat there, looking like she was going to fall asleep.

"Can ah... can.. ah have a.. taste?" Applebloom tiredly asked. Sweetie looked stopped licking and looked up at Applebloom. Sweetie nodded and squeezed Applebloom's puff until some more semen started dripping out again. She put some on her hoof and brought it up to Applebloom's mouth who slowly licked it off. Sweetie shuddered as she felt Applebloom's tounge slide across her hoof.

That... tasted really weird. But good" Applebloom said, while trying to lick up the semen that had fallen off of Sweetie's hoof when she offered it to her. As they were doing this, Babs had gotten up and had trotted over to Spike and gave him a small kiss.

Sweetie heard Babs ask Spike, "You know... that looked really fun. You up for round two?" Spike looked at her in suprise and blushed again, his member getting stiff once again. Babs got in front of Spike and brought her mouth to his tip and gave it a small kiss, which was met with a soft moan from Spike. Slowly, Babs brought the tip into her mouth and slowly brought her mouth down. Since he wasn't at all that big she was able to take him in all the way to the hilt. As soon as she had found her limit, she started to bob her head up and down, which Spike started moaning quite loudly. Babs must like what she was tasting because she was going to town on Spike. She even started to make small choking sounds when she took in too much of him.

Sweetie heard Spike say, "You can stop... and get on your side." Babs lifted her head up and let Spike's stiff penis slant to the side. A bit of precum oozed out and some was dripping out of Babs's mouth. She did as she was told and got on her side. Spike got down next to her and started kissing her neck. Sweetie thought he was going to start cuddling with her until she had seen him lift her hind leg and start prodding at Babs who gasped at the unexpected invasion of her fillyhood.

"This might hurt for a bit but it'll feel good after that." Spike said, which resulted in a quick nod. Babs put her head onto the ground and covered her blush with a hoof. Spike slowly entered Babs, who was not as tight as before but still tight. Her vaginal lips parted as they allowed entry for Spike's penis. She gasped and moaned into her hoof as she was being fucked. As soon as he had entered at about a third of the way in, Sweetie seen babs stiffen as her look of complete bliss was replaced by pain. Applebloom was used to pain as she lived on a farm but Babs didn't get hurt too often.

Sweetie heard Spike ask with concern, "You want me to stop?" Babs shook her head violently and monaed again.

"NO! BUCK ME! JUST BUCK ME ALREADY! I CAN'T WAIT!" Babs all but screamed, which made Spike grin. He then plunged his penis in all the way, making her scream even louder.

Meanwhile, Sweetie had not noticed that Applebloom had gotten up and was walking towards Sweetie with a mischevious grin on her face. Sweetie flinched in suprise when she felt Applebloom's light kiss on her neck. Apparently, she was not done yet.

"Ah think ah have enough in me to do ya..." Applebloom said with a look of desire on her face. This was by far the best picnic that Sweetie had ever attended. Although they really did not eat much. Sweetie turned around and started to make out with Applebloom. Applebloom kissed better than Sweetie because she had more practice than her. Sweetie could feel Applebloom's tounge rub against hers and it swirled around in her mouth. Sweetie Belle suddenly remembered something and pulled away from Applebloom who looked at her with confusion. Sweetie got inside of her bag and brought out the familiar vibrator that Rarity had forgotten all about.

"Oh Applebloom... how do you feel about anal?" Sweetie asked, which was met with a look of alarm and deeper confusion. Applebloom then nodded her head enthusiastically and turned around. She kept her flank sticking up in the air and put her head on the ground. Sweetie walked up to her and turned the vibrator on and teasingly started prodding at the Applebloom's puckered asshole. Applebloom started moaning and looked up at Sweetie, who had a satisfied smile on her face. Sweetie then stuck in the tip without warning. Applebloom gasped in suprise and bit down on her hoof. The more Sweetie poked and prodded, the deeper she got. After awhile, she had gotten in about half of the vibrator and Applebloom was screaming for more. Sweetie obliged and sat on her haunches in front of Applebloom's flank, not stopping her assault on her anus, and started started to stick her hoof inside of Applebloom's vagina. It felt weird but Sweetie soon got used to the feel of Applebloom's vaginal walls contract around her hoof.

Spike was ramming Babs with no intent to be gentle with her, but she obviously wanted it that way. She screamed at the top of her lungs and kicked a hind leg every once in awhile. She was being ripped open and it looked ROUGH. Spike was getting very excited and even started to slap Babs's flank, causing her to whimper with a mix of pain and pleasure. Sweetie had never seen him act this way, and it was very exciting.

Sweetie heard Babs say, "J-eez Spike... you're... s-s-so rough." Spike didn't even give her any notice and just kept on slamming into her. Babs screamed as she came onto the ground and was met with Spike pulling out at the last minute and shooting his load all over Babs. Wow, that was fast. They only started fifteen minutes ago.

Meanwhile, Sweetie had plunged her hoof into Applebloom very deep. The vibrator was all the way into her anus as well. All through this, Applebloom had done nothing but scream at the top of her lungs and tell Sweetie to go harder or go faster. Sweetie was glad to oblige and did just that. Suddenly, Applebloom snapped her head at Sweetie and sprayed everything she had into Sweetie's face. Sweetie was not expecting this and pulled her hoof away from the vibrator and ripped her other hoof out of Applebloom's vagina. She fell onto her back, suprised that things had turned out the way they did.

The three fillies and the small, purple dragon looked at each other with smiles on their faces. They went to a nearby river and washed up, making sure to not leave any trace of what they had done. There was no doubt that somepony had heard them screaming so they had to look innocent. They decided it was time to eat and sat down on the plaid blanket yet again. The four friends ate up and eventually had to split up. Applebloom and Babs had to get home as it was approximately 4:30 P.M. and they were expected to be home at 5.

"See ya later Sweetie and Spike!" Applebloom said, waving at them as the two cousins walked off and dissappeared over the hill. Spike and Sweetie sat and talked for about two hours before they too had to go home. Spike dropped Sweetie off at the boutique and gave her a kiss. She watched as he walked down the street, towards the library. He was singing to himself... something about love. Sweetie sure knew one thing though. She was in love with Spike and nopony was going to tell her otherwise. It was still a shame that Scootaloo missed out on the fun....

Chapter 3: Midnight Remedy

-At the Boutique-

Rarity tried warm milk, medicine, and all sorts of homemade remedies to help her sleep. But nothing seemed to work. The truth is, she didn't even know if she wanted to go to sleep. She never had any good dreams anymore. They were usually nightmares about her past lover, Torin. The way his brown coat shimmered in the midinight light. The way his reddish-brown mane flowed in the wind. And then all she saw after that was blood and him blaming her for his death. She knew he would never blame her but her nightmares had said otherwise. She had tried pleasuring herself a couple of times, to see if that slowed the nightmares down, but it never worked. So she just sat there, confused about whether or not she should try to get some sleep... if she even could. She had not slept last night and the exhaustion had followed her all day, making her everyday tasks nearly impossible to finish.

Figuring sleep was a definite no, Rarity got up and groggily walked towards the window. She looked out and seen that there was a full moon out tonight. The stars sparkled down at her, causing her to slightly smile. There was always something about the night sky that seemed to calm her down whenever she felt this way. She felt like she belonged when she looked up into that black, abyssal beauty. She felt a tear gathering at the corner of her eyes and wiped at her eyes again. Why did he haunt her memories so? What had she ever done to deserve such a soul wrenching pain in her heart?

"Why Torin... why..." Rarity whimpered feebily at the night, hoping a fool's hope that her answer lay there. She left the windowsill defeated. Rarity started walking towards her bed, but stopped halfway there. She just broke down crying as she released all of her pent up despair over the past seven years. What was the point anymore? The boutique is in economically declining disaster. Her life's work was at risk and there was nothing she could do. Of course she had tried to solicite herself and those four fillies. But she abandoned that idea when her better judgement kicked in. They had the rest of their lives to make something of themselves and she would only be dragging them down with her. Sweetie and the other three deserved so much more than that. Rarity was so deep in her despair that she did not hear the door slowly creak open. The light from a candle brought her out of her self pity and regret-filled crys. Rarity looked up to find Sweetie Belle looking down at her with sadness and concern in her eyes.

"Rarity... what's wrong?" Sweetie asked, who got down next to Rarity and gave her a her a hug. She smiled at this and only cried more. She must have woken Sweetie up with all the noise she was making. Sweetie was a very light sleeper so it really wasn't a suprise. She couldn't bring herself to tell her innocent sister why she was such a wreck. She couldn't stop crying no matter how hard she tried so she just cried. Sweetie and Rarity sat there together for what seemed like hours, which was only a mere five minutes.

Rarity decided that she had to explain herself, "Sweetie... it's hard to explain." Sweetie perked her ears up when Rarity spoke and then told her to go on, which Rarity continued, "A long time ago, I had a special somepony that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. He was kind and knew when I needed a shoulder to cry on. His name was Torin. You don't know him but he had a brown coat and a reddish-brown mane that I found absolutely amazing. I know you're too young to understand this but... I felt a special connection with him. I always felt safe with him. But one day..." Rarity broke down cying in the middle of her story and Sweetie tried her best to calm Rarity down.

"Go on... I'll listen" Sweetie assured Rarity. Rarity looked up to her sister and smiled again. She had grown up so fast and Rariy couldn't help but feel proud of her.

"Back to the reason I'm crying. Well, Torin and I were walking to the movie theatre and we didn't see that a runaway carriage was coming our way. Torin pushed me to the side, away from any danger, and took a pipe from the carriage to the chest. He passed away in my arms." Rarity noticed Sweetie's look of shock and a tear in her eyes. Rarity knew she shouldn't have told her, but she just couldn't help herself. Who else but Sweetie? She needed to know that not all things were sunshine and butterflies. Even in such a peaceful kingdom like Equestria there were bad things. Such as Torin's sudden death.

"Rarity... I don't know what to say." Sweetie said quietly. Rarity put a hoof up to Sweetie's lips to quiet her and they just lay there. Eventually they started talking about their day and recent events. They wanted to steer clear of the subject of Rarity's lost lover.

"Rarity... you know how Babs and Applebloom... do things together?" Sweetie asked rather hesitantly. Rarity looked up again and saw an uncomfortable espression on Sweetie's face. What was she getting at? Rarity thought for a moment and then a grin spread across her face.

"Yes?" Rarity asked, trying to sound like she didn't already know what Sweetie was talking about.

"Well... maybe if WE did things... it could help you go to sleep" Sweetie said slowly and hesitantly. Rarity's grin increased from ear to ear.

"What harm could it do?" Rarity asked herself out loud and dove in for a gentle kiss. Sweetie's eyes widened when their lips made contact. Rarity slowly moved her hoof down the length of Sweetie's flank, getting a soft moan in return. Rarity slipped that hoof under Sweetie's hind leg and made contact with her small vaginal lips. Sweetie's eyes widened even further and fell backwards, taking Rarity with her. Sweetie giggled but was interupted by another kiss from Rarity. Rarity slipped her hoof in again, prodding Sweetie for an opening. Rarity found it and slipped her hoof in slowly. Sweetie broke the kiss and cried out in the night. Rarity could feel the way Sweetie's stomach contracted and shook as Rarity's hoof dove in and out. She was tight but Rarity managed to get her entire hoof in. Sweetie abandoned her moaning and started to scream.

"R-r-r-r-rarity! I-I... AHHHHH!" Sweetie yelled out as Rarity mercilessly slid in as much of her hoof as she could. Spike really was not that big in size and neither was the vibrator. So she was not used to something the size of Rarity's hoof ramming up inside of her. Rarity kissed Sweetie, making sure she was giving her sister the treatment she deserved. She pulled her hoof out and started to rub instead. Sweetie was trembling, writhing, and convulsing underneath Rarity. She moved her lips to Sweetie's neck and slowly down to her shoulders. By then Rarity had stopped fiddling around with Sweetie's folds and was devoting her attention to kissing ever so lower. With each a kiss a shudder erupted from within Sweetie. Rarity never broke eye contact with her while Sweetie looked at her in confusion.

"Rarity... what ar-" Sweetie began but was cut off when rarity reached her vaginal lips. Sweetie moaned as Rarity extended a tounge as far as she could into Sweetie. The small filly squealed, giggled, and moaned as Rarity licked her. By then, her muzzle was covered in Sweetie's juices. Rarity slowly dragged her tongue up the length of Sweetie's quivering lips and then pulled away, leaving the small filly speechless and stunned.

"Rarity, why did y-you stop?" Sweetie asked while still recovering from Rarity's assault upon her innocence. Rarity only smiled and moved Sweetie up to where she needed her. Rarity moved a hind leg over Sweetie's and then slipped the other one underneath of her. A look of realization came unto the small filly's face and then blushed and giggled. Rarity got as comfortable as this position would allow and then rubbed her marehood onto Sweetie's fillyhood casuing both to moan in unison. This was, by far, the strangest coupling in a scissors position that Rarity had ever been in before. Squelching noises began to surface as Rarity slammed hersefl, mercilessly, onto Sweetie. The wooden floor was getting doused in their jucies but neither of them could care less. Sweetie was now moving her hips in a rhythmic pattern, which was probably born out of instict.

R-rarity....! I-I think I'm... AHHH..!! AHHHH!!! COMING!!" Sweetie screamed as she shot out everything she had. There not many places it could all go so some of it had slightly went up into Rarity. A lot of it had ricocheted off of Rarity's sopping wet nether lips, had sprayed out into air a couple feet, and sprinkled them both in it. Rarity could feel herself nearing her breaking point as well. She slammed into Sweetie causing her to scream even louder as she continued her massive orgasm. It eventually subsided into whimpers and moans as the orgasm died down. Rarity soon felt herself release as well. She moaned and cried out softly as she had her orgasm. She was not a squirter like Sweetie but it was amazing enough. The two sisters lay there, panting as the moon's shimmer of light put them in the spotlight.

"Rarity... can I sleep with you tonight?" Sweetie asked, who had now sat up and was giving Rarity the puppy dog eyes. The older sister smiled at this and gestured her into the bed. They both cuddled up into each other's embrace and after about ten minutes, Rarity could hear the soft snores from Sweetie. Rarity soon felt herself slip into the abyss of slumber and for the first time in a long time... she had slept peacefully and without nightmares. She felt happy.

Chapter 4: Take These Broken Wings of Mine

The afternoon sun beat down on the inhabitants of Ponyville as they went about their business. The birds were tweeting and the colts and filles were out playing, taking advantage of this beautiful weather. The pegasi had scheduled a downpour for tomorrow so today was better than most to be outside. A lone orange filly cheerfully walked along the path and was happy as ever. She had so many great experiences this week. But there were bad ones too, like the fact that er scooter had a broken wheel so she was forced to do some walking, which she was, strangely, perfectly fine with. She was going to meet Babs down at Flutteshy's cottage to help her with Angel. The small bunny was on another one of his famous tantrums. It was up to Scootaloo, the bravest fllly out there to help her dear friend Fluttershy. And Babs....

Fluttershy had also said that she had a special treat for the two fillies when they were done calming the small furry animal. Normally Fluttershy didn't need help but Angel was a special case. He was a lot harder to please than most animals out there. So, often, Fluttershy would timidly ask for help, which the small, orange pegasus would be happy to oblige. After all she was the student of the most amazing flyer in all of Equestria... Rainbow Dash! She was still a bit frustrated that she had missed getting nailed by Spike at that picnic. Oh well... that was for another day. She had reached the edge of Ponyville and there was still no sign of Babs. I thought she was going to be here? Well, maybe she got to Fluttershy's house a little earlier than she had said before. Well... no use standing around like an idiot. So she resumed her walk to Fluttershy's house, unaware of what would later transpire this evening.

_____________________________________________________________________________

-Some time later-

Scootaloo cheerfully walked up to the front door of Fluttershy's cottage and gave a few quick knocks on the door, which was met with a sharp squeek from, what Scootaloo could guess was Fluttershy.

"I swear... that pony is afraid of her own shadow." Scootaloo mumbled with pity while shaking her head slowly. She regained her earlier stance and waited for the timid pegasus to open up. It slowly did and te small crack was filled with a fearful eye. Fluttershy calmed down once she saw it was Scootaloo.

"Oh... hi Scootaloo. Thanks for coming over. I hope I didn't bother you..." Fluttershy said quietly, nervousness evident her every word and body language she conveyed towards Scootaloo.

"Oh, you're not a bother Fluttershy. Don't worry." Scootaloo said, trying to sound as sincere as she could so as not to make the yellow pegasus even more nervous than she already was. Scootaloo could see that some of the evident nervousness that had clouded her was loosening up and melting away. Or so she hoped. You never really knew if Fluttershy was ever comfortable with anything.

"Is... Babs in there?" Scootaloo asked when Fluttershy had not responded. If she did then Scootaloo sure didn't hear it. It was sometimes very hard to understand what the yellow mare says when she was quiet, which was basically all the time.

"Yes... she is upstairs. We got control of Angel... sorry for bringing you down here. She said that she would help clean around the house." Fluttershy said a little bit louder this time. Scootaloo smiled, glad she didn't have to deal with the stubborn rabbit. Angel must have been pretty bad to require assistance. Scootaloo guessed since she had made her way all the way down here that she should help clean as well.

"Well, I guess that means that I'm going to help around the house as well." Scootaloo said happily after processing these change of plans in her head. Fluttershy smiled and let Scootaloo inside the house, which had numerous types of animals inside of it.

"Thanks for the help Scootaloo... the animals can be quite messy..." Fluttershy said. It was a wonder that she ever even got out of this house. Instead of trying to work this out in her head, Scootaloo assumed this was probably as hard to explain as Pinkie Pie. As soon as Scootaloo compared Fluttershy's situation to Pinkie Pie, Scootaloo immediately drew her mind elsewhere. That was a subject you simply did not want to try to make out. It was impossible.

Scootaloo made her way up the stairs, a big smile on her face. She poked her head around the corner and listened. She could hear slight humming noises coming from within Fluttershy's room. She then made her way to the source of the noise and opened the door. Inside was Babs cleaning and organizing things. She was humming a familiar tune, which Scootaloo just could not put her hoof on.

"Hey... need some help there?" Scootaloo asked, which was met with a suprised Babs. Scootaloo giggled, knowing that she had just startled her friend.

'Don't sneak up on me like that... almost gave me a heart attack..." Babs said with a hoof up to her chest. The two fillies giggled and held each other in a hug. They broke the embrace a minute later and helped each other out with the cleaning, making sure that they did not miss a spot. Scootaloo and Babs were washing a drawer with two seperate washclothes and were not paying any attention. they bumped into each other and both of them jumped in suprise.

"Oh, sorry I-!" babs bagan but was stopped when Scootaloo slipped and fell onto Babs. Their lips accidently made contact and their eyes were wide. Babs closed her eyes and relaxed when they both fell into each other's embrace. They knew that they shouldn't be doing this but... just a quick kiss. It was all on complete accident but turned into something deeper. Scootaloo's tiny wings fluttered as felt the full force of Babs's love through their entwined state. The jolts of excitement were almsot too much to bear. Scootaloo made small whimpering sounds as Babs explored every inch of her mouth. They had been kissing for what seemed like forever, completely forgetting about Fluttershy who had now occupied the doorway.

"What are you doing?!" Fluttershy exclaimed in a regular toned voice but still filled with shock. The two fillies quickly brought their attention up to the yellow pagasus who was now bathed in a stunned silence.

"This... this isn't what it looks like Fluttershy! I swear!" Scootaloo said frantically, the earlier excitement now gone and replaced with a fear unlinke any she had ever known. The only kind of fear that had been greater than the one she was feeling right now was when she was a small foal. She only remembered vague pictures but it was enough to scar her for life. The house had been on fire and she was the only one the fireponies could rescue. This was the most fear she had felt in a long time though.

"Yeah... we... were just huggin'!" babs said, breaking her own shocked silence. This was an extremely awkward silence. Fluttershy did not run or even glare at them. She just simply looked down as if she were pondering something and walked to their side.

"Girls... I won't tell. I understand love. But why did you have to kiss in my house?" Fluttershy asked. Babs and Scootaloo broke their loving embrace that had landed them in the deep end. The orange filly had no idea that Fluttershy would be so understanding about this.

"Well... me and Babs were cleaning... we bumped into each other... and..." Scootaloo begand but her embarrassment stopped her. She could feel the heat on her cheek, which probably indicated she was blushing profusely. babs stepped forward in Scootaloo's place to explain this awkward situation.

"Scootaloo slipped and fell on me. Our lips... accidently... touched. And... everything went South from there." Babs said, who had barely made it through the explanation. There was a blush upon her cheeks as well. Fluttershy only smiled and gave them a small kiss on their forheads. Babs didn't seem to mind but something else stirred in Scootaloo when she felt that kiss upon her dome. Strange... why would she feel this way about Fluttershy?

"Now... I... can I ask you fillies a favor? if that's alright with you..." Fluttershy asked much more timidly. Scootaloo had gotten used to her sudden quiet voice changes over the past years and had learned to accept it.

"Sure! I mean, you just let us off the hook after getting... excited... in your bedroom. Anything at all. Name it." Scootaloo said with enthusiasm and a side of relief. Babs nodded furiously indicating that she too would do whatever Fluttersy wanted after she had let them off the hook.

"Oh... well okay. I have been... lonely. Nopony has attended to my certain needs in years. I was wondering... could you share an... exciting... moment with me? If that's alright with you..." Fluttershy asked, a little louder this time. Scootaloo and Babs just stood there in absolute shock. Their eyes were wide as they stood in stunned silence. this was not what they imagined the yellow pegasus they looked up to to ask. This was... unexpected to say the least.

"Uhhh... sure.... ummm..." Scootaloo said suprised at the sudden turn of events. Random things like this had been happening all week. First with Applebloom finding the magazine, the incident with Spike, Rarity and Sweetie's plan revealed, and now this. This was by far the most amazing and exciting week in her entire life.

"Good... but... how do you want to do this?" Fluttershy asked. The three exchanged looks for a little bit, confusion on their faces.

"The way we always start these things..." Babs said. The city filly went up and planted a kiss upon Fluttershy's lips causing her wings to shoot up in suprise. A soft angelic moan eminated from the mare as her wings fluttered into the air.

"Talk about a wingboner..." Scootaloo said, impressed at Babs's move. Well... better start to get in on the action. Scootaloo trotted up to Fluttershy's side and peaked around the corner of her flank.

'Oh fluttershy... would you mind flicking your tail off to the side?" Scootaloo asked with a mischevious tone. Fluttershy nodded, deep in the kiss that was sending her into a fit of moaning. Wow... she was even more vocal than Sweetie Belle. Scootaloo figured that she would be more quiet. Fluttershy flicked her taill to the side, giving Scootaloo the heavenly sight of the mature mare's folds. This was what made Scootaloo excited and wet. She trotted over and got comfortable in her positioning. She stuffed as much of her muzzle in as she could, causing the yellow mare to progress from rather loud moans to rather loud screams of pleasure. The taste was wonderous... it was... indescribable. Scootaloo had performed oral upon others but this... this was something else. The euphoric moment was broken when a small poofing sound could be heard. a small wind hit Scootaloo's face. The thing that was absolutely horrifying was the smell. She farted in my face!

"Fluttershy! You just farted in my face!" Scootaloo scolded while gagging, "Sweet Celestia... that was rancid." Fluttershy broke the kiss with Babs and looked back in alarm.

"Oh, Scootaloo I'm so sorry! I wasn't paying attention! I was so in to it..." Fluttershy said, fear in her voice. If Scootaloo didn't know better she would have thought the yellow mare was on the verge of tears. Scootaloo's accusing glare softened when she saw this and tried to tell the nervous, yellow mare that is was okay.

"let's just forget that ever happened... just... next time warn me when you feel like you need to fart. That wasn't a pleasant experience for me." Scootaloo said. With the minor bump in their sexual road flattened they continued their earlier ventures. Scootaloo stuck her muzzle into the rich, flavorful folds and relished every moment. She lapped up as much of the mature mare's juices as she could, but it came out in abundance. Most of it had started to drip down her muzzle and down her neck, causing a tickling sensation to form along its path. This only served to excite the orange filly even more than she already was.

"Ummmm... g-girls... I have... an i-i-idea..." Fluttershy stammered with her usualy timid voice but not as quiet as they would have expected. Fluttershy pulled away from the two-ended, sexual contact and walked to her bedside table. She took a key that was under her pillow and unlocked it. She then pulled out a long object that sort of looked like a dildo but... it had a strap.

"Fluttershy... what is that?" Babs asked, uncertainty edged along her voice. Fluttershy only smiled and proceeded to walk over to Babs.

'You'll see... want to try it on first? If that's alright with you..." Fluttershy asked Babs who looked as confused as ever.

"Sure... why not? ummm..." Babs slowly replied. Scootaloo was the one who had actually read the playstallion magazine all the way through and knew exactly what this was. She had seen a picture of a mare strap this to her hip and stick it into the other mare. Scootaloo thought they called it a strap-on dildo... but she might be mistaken....

Fluttershy helped Babs into the strange contraption and fitted it so it wouldn't slide off. "Ummm... this is weird..." Babs began but looked down at the fake penis that was dangling from her nether area, "wait... it looks like a... oh sweet Celestia..." Babs finished with a big grin and widened eyes. Yeah... this was going to be a fun night. Fluttershy told Scootaloo to lay on her back, which she did with giddy excitement. She then told Babs to positon the hanging, fake penis above the orange filly's warm, wet mound. The two fillies held this position, not knowing what to do next.

"Let me guide you..." Fluttershy said with a regular toned voice and a big smile on her face. The yellow mare grabbed hold of the dildo part of the strap on and another hoof on Babs's flank. She moved the two fillies so close that the tip started to prod against Scootaloo's lips, causing her to whimper and moan with pleasure. This was a strange and new sensation, unlike any she had ever experienced. Babs somehow knew exactly what to do, which suprised both the orange filly and the yellow mare. She slowly slid the length of the dildo in, Scootaloo's lips slowly parting to allow access to her most guarded treasure. Her moans grew louder as more of the plastic slid in, causing ripples of pleasure to scream throughout her young body. Scootaloo felt a resistance inside of her break and the pleasure was interrupted by a sharp, uncomfortable pain. Scootaloo cried out and looked down to see that a small dribble of blood had trickled down onto the ground.

"I... I'm bleeding... it hurts..." Scootaloo said while whimpering. Babs did not stop but moaned as she put in as much as she could. Scootaloo did not want to stop so she rode through the pain. Eventually the pain subsided and was replaced by an even greater pleasure that she would have never thought possible.

"ah... Babs... harder... faster..." Scootaloo moaned loudly. Fluttershy had walked over and proceeded to stick her crotch in the orange filly's face. Scootaloo, by now, knew what to do and started to give the yellow pegasus oral. The three ponies moaned and whimpered as they made love to one another. By then, Babs had plunged halfway in, causing Scootaloo to move from loud moans to loud euphoric screams, her open-mouth smile that of utter bliss.

"Babs... I-I-I think I'm.... AHH-H-H-H...." Scootaloo stuttered and mumbled in pleasure. She could feel something building up inside of her that was all to familiar. She brought her mouth back to Fluttershy's warm slit and slurped and sucked at everything she could. The intoxicating smell and taste along with being pummeled by the long strap-on was enough to bring her to the edge. Scootaloo broke contact and screamed as she came with a ferocity unlike any she had ever before experienced... how did these things get better? The pleasure ripped through her like a freight train about to derail off the tracks and off into insanity.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! BABS!!!! FLUTTERSHY!!!" Scootaloo screamed at the top of her lungs as she writhed and squirmed. The pleasure was still exploding to new heights but was slowly subsiding. Scootaloo had now noticed that Fluttershy and Babs had both had their orgasms. Their crys of pleasure had been drowned out by the high pitched screams that had came from Scootaloo.

"Wow... Scootaloo... that was... exciting..." Fluttershy said suprisingly not being timid or nervous in the slightest. I guess she really needed this if she was desperate enough to turn to two small fillies. Babs was just giggling with a knowing smile.

"I know how ya feel there Scoots... Kind of... I guess I didn't have anything this big in me..." Babs said, looking down at the dildo still attached to her. She got it off with some trouble but eventually it fell onto the floor with a satisfying thud. The three friends looked around at the mess and Scootaloo couldn't help but giggle like a madpony.

"Umm... what's so funny?" Babs asked, here eyebrow raised in concern. Fluttershy was also giving her that look of concern but Scootaloo just shook her head and finished after about half a minute.

"We came to clean but ended up makin' a mess." Scootaloo said, which brought her into another fit of giggles. The others followed tow in giggles. Eventually the three set to cleaning up their mess, which proved hard to take out of the wooden floor. After they had finally cleaned the last of their evidence they went downstairs and had a small snack. That sure was an interesting turn of events... well, all good things must come to an end. Or do they?

_____________________________________________________________________________

-Leaving Fluttershy's house-

Scootaloo and Babs left the small cottage, leaving behind a grinning yellow pegasus behind at the doorway. They talked for awhile about what they were going to do later on tonight or how in the wide, wide world did Featherwight keep so skinny. Or how Pinkie Pie appeared at random spots seemingly out of nowhere, which they abandoned because it was not wise to speak of such things. After awhile they had to reluctantly part ways once they reached Sweet Apple Acres.

"See you later Scootaloo... in more ways than one." Babs said with a wink a slap on the flank. Scootaloo giggled and returned the two gestures.

"Yeah... hope to see you there." Scootaloo said and with that she left the city filly and off into the horizon. Now, back to her Aunt's house, which was on the other side of Ponyville. Ugh... Scootaloo took it back. Walking sucks....

Author's Note

I just had to make Fluttershy fart in Scootaloo's face. Laughed my ass off writing that part. Go ahead, call me imature but I must say... it was worth it. XD

But anyways I hope you guys will stick with me for the next chapter , which will be the one where things ACTUALLY come together. I am sure people just come to this for the clop, which I add to every (Going to be MOST of the chapters when I am done) chapter.

Stay awesome fellow bronies!

Chapter 5: No Really, I Incest!

The city filly looked around nervously, making sure nopony was around to see her in such a state. Her mane was a mess and she was absolutely drenched in sweat. She had four more days before she was sent back to Manehatten, so she had to get in as much fun time as she could. Her parents barely let her have any privacy so it would be kind of hard to scratch that special kind of itch. She rubbed ever so slowly across her lips, seperating them for a brief moment before letting them silently slap back to their original form. This was not as satisfying as getting it from Spike but there was no way she could ask Sweetie if she could get another crack at him. That would be abusing the small unicorn's kindness. She had started to softly squeal into her hoof as the squelching sounds grew even louder. The pleasure fogged her mind as she played with herself. It was not as near as fulfilling with another partner but you took what you could and didn't complain. She was so into her activity that she had not heard a soft panting noise off to her right. She squealed even louder as the pleasure sky rocketed. She jerked when she felt something wet brush across her back.

"What the...?" Babs said in suprise. She looked back to find Winona sitting on her haunches, her head tilted and looking at her as if asking what the city filly was doing. Babs relaxed when she found that it was just the dog.

"Winona... I was enjoyin' myself here." Babs complained, not at all happy for the intrusion upon her private time. She was about to continue but an idea popped into her head. She looked back at the dog who was still looking at her with what she could assume was a confused expression.

"Oh Winona...come here!" Babs called to the dog who happily jumped up, putting her paws on Babs and licking her face. The dog looked down and started to sniff around Babs's body, doing what a dog would normally do if she smelled something like Babs's excitement. The dog paused in her sniffing when she reached Babs's forbidden fruit. The dog started licking across the salty treasure, causing the brown filly to moan rather loudly. The pleasure coursed through her young body as she convulsed and writhed. Winona sensed that whatever it was that she was doing, it excited and pleased her. So she continued pleasuring the city filly, who was trying so hard to keep quiet but her efforts were in vain.

"Good girl Winona... good girl..." Babs mumbled softly, her head tilted back upon the hay bale, her back arched up and her stomach contracting with each wave of pleasure that coursed throughout her young body.

"Babs?" A familiar voice inquired with confusion. Babs whipped her head to the source of the voice and relaxed in relief when she saw that it was only Applebloom. But what if it had been Applejack? Then she would really be in trouble. Applebloom trotted over to the city filly's side, and observed the scene that was playing out before her.

"I... Winona... so good..." Babs tried to explain but drifted off into blissful moans of pleasure. Applebloom timidly shuffled her hooves and looked at the ground timidly. Babs hated to see her miss out on the fun so she tackled the farm filly, suprising her. She kissed her lover deeply and ran a hoof over one of her small teats. Applebloom moaned as Babs kissed and played with her body as if it was some kind of toy. They both felt Winona lick at their nether regions and moaned ever louder as the dog switched between both of the fillies, so as to make sure their pleasure was equalized as best as she could get it. The pleasure was so much better than a tounge of a pony. It was rough yet soft at the same time and it dragged the nether lips slightly before letting them fall back into their original positioning, begging for more of the dog's attention. Applebloom squealed as she was given the best of both worlds. Babs could feel herself getting ever so closer to that goal she so craved.

"AHHH.... Applebloom... I'm... co-... uhh... mmmm..." Babs cried out futiley as the orgasm took hold of her body. The pleasure ripped throughout her body like a train as her orgasm continued. Applebloom had stopped the cries of Babs with a simple kiss as she too had an orgasm. It wasn't a lust-filled kiss but an innocent one. A small, long kiss that spoke a thousand words... mostly love. Winona had moved on to other things and sniffed curiously around the barn as the two fillies did what they always did after sharing an intimate time together. They took comfort in each other's embrace.

"Ya think we should go? Ah mean, everypony might get a tad bit suspicous of us if we're gone too long." Applebloom said, stirring the city filly's erotic thoughts of Applebloom. Babs blushed in spite of herself and nodded. They both got up and brushed off the hay that had clung to their bodies. They exited the barn and closed the doors, stealing loving, sideways glances at each other through this entire process. They made their way to the house and stopped outside of it once they heard crying sounds coming from within the house.

"Who do you think that could be?" Babs said, more to herself. Applebloom looked at her, shrugged and put her ear against the door seemingly trying to listen in. Babs did the same and the muffled voices became clearer than before.

"Rarity... jus'.... calm down..." A voice who the fillies assumed was Applejack said. The sniffling and crying sounds had to be Rarity because why would anypony else be crying when Applejack had specifically mentioned Rarity?

"I can't... it's absolutely dreadful... I still feel the sadness I felt when he died. I don't know how long I can go on like this..." Who the fillies assumed Rarity said. Her voice had a distinct nature that no other pony seemed to have.

"Rarity... go home and get some rest. Ah think ya could use it." Applejack said with a motherly voice that soothed the most distressed of ponies.

"I suppose you're right. Goodby and thank you for listening." Rarity said and the fillies heard hoofsteps approaching the door. The two fillies scrambled to a bush and made it in time before Rarity popped out with a sad smile and dried tears in her eyes. What had made her cry? And who was the pony who died?

"Jus' go on home Rarity... Ah'll see ya tomorrow." Applejack, who had appeared in the doorway. Rarity disappeared down the path and Applejack had went back into the house.

"Applebloom... are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Babs asked with a smile. Applebloom looked up with a grin and nodded.

"Cutie Mark Crusader Detectives?" Applebloom asked, wtill holding her mischevious grin.

"Yay..." Babs cheered quietly. With that the two fillies followed the distressed fashion pony. Rarity had a secret she didn't want to share and it was up to the Cutie Mark Crusaders to find out. What was to transpire from this is nothing that they would have ever guessed or hoped for. This beautiful day was going to turn out to be... not so beautiful.

Author's Note

Clop from the get-go... me and my inability to proceed with the story. I guess that I'll have to progress it along with clop. Well, hoped you guys enjoyed and I apologise for the long wait. I'll TRY.... try... to get chapters in sooner. Also... can anyone tell me where I got the idea for this chapter name? Hint: Famous MLP parody... Gypsy.

Stay awesome fellow bronies and as always...

Chapter 6: Cutie Mark Crusader Detectives (Part 1)

The two fillies had been following the distraught fashionista through town, thinking she was heading back to the boutique. Instead, she veered off into a different direction, confusing the two fillies to no end. It had began to rain but it was only a small shower. It was actually quite refreshing. But Rarity would never go outside if it was raining. She was always worried about her coat getting wet.

"Doesn't she work today? Why would she go anywhere else but the boutique...? And it's raining...?" Babs inquired, more to herself than to her, what she wants to call, life partner. After awhile, Applebloom pointed at Rarity as she left town on the north side.

"Well, that's mighty peculiar... Watcha' think she's doin' Babs?" Applebloom asked, confusion in every facial expression etched upon her stunningly beautiful face. If only she could rub a hoof across it... no. Not in town. Almost all of the Ponyville inhabitants knew who they were and that they were cousins. They would only raise suspicion. Applebloom was right there and Babs couldn't do anything about it. It was absolutely maddening.

"I have no bucking clue... OOPS! I said a bad word." Babs said. Applebloom just started laughing like crazy. Babs glared at the country filly.

"What?!" Babs asked with a tint of anger for some reason. Applebloom calmed down and looked like she had laughed too much and breathed too little.

"Ya.. ya worried about cursin'? Really? After what we do in our... private time." Applebloom said, giggling softly. Babs started laughing when she caught on.

"Let's get to following Rarity before we lose her." Babs said, getting a nod from Applebloom. With that, the two fillies set off on their first detective case. If you can even call it that. They had followed Rarity out of town and to a couple of bushes on the side of the road. Why had she stopped at a couple of bushes? What was so important about a couple of bushes? They watched, from a safe distance, as Rarity plopped onto her haunches and look down at an object in her hooves. They couldn't tell what it was from this far away so they moved ever so closer, hoping for a better look at what Rarity was doing.

"What do ya think she's doing...?" Applebloom asked Babs who just shrugged. They slowly moved closer to Rarity only to stop dead in their tracks when she started talking softly and weakly. To them. Who else would she be talking to? They were all alone out here. Rarity turned around and confirmed their suspicions. They had been caught.

"I know you're there. You're not exactly the sneaky types." Rarity said. The two fillies sighed with annoyance. Apparently being ninjas wasn't something they were going to get cutie marks in. They walked up and looked at what Rarity had in her hooves. It was some kind of lockbox. She didn't open it up, merely just sat there staring at it like it was the saddest thing in existance.

"Rarity... are you okay...?" Babs asked. Rarity looked at the city filly with a weak, forced smile.

"Yeah, just... thinking." Rarity said, her voice cracking. The two fillies looked at each other with pit for the white mare. What could have caused such sadness? She was fine just yesterday.

"Oh... just... go..." Rarity said sadly. She looked up but both of the fillies saw in the fashionista's eyes that she didn't want them to leave. Applebloom was the first to make the first ove and gave Rarity a hug. At first, Rarity was suprised but she eventually fell into the hug and cried softly into her shoulder. Babs joined in on the hug and they stayed like that for the longest time.

"Rarity... can't you just tell us what's wrong?" Babs asked, hoping to get to the bottom of the white mare's strange behaviour. Rarity looked off to the side, here eyes glazed over and dry tears patched her eyes.

"Fine... but you can't tell anypony. Sweetie already knows. I guess Scootaloo can know..." Rarity said. And with that she proceeded to tell them the tale of how she lost one of the most important things in her life. The day she also lost herself.

* * * * *

-10 minutes later-

The two fillies were at a loss for words. They couldn't think of anything worse than what Rarity had just described to them. Applebloom was on the verge of tears and Babs already had some trickling down her cheeks. It seemed that this was bigger than either of the two fillies.

"Ah...ah don't know what ta' say." Applebloom said, her voice weak and cracking up. Babs was at a loss for words as she stared at the ground.

"Doesn't matter. I need to get home and work on my dresses. Got a lot of orders..." Rarity mumbled. She got up without another word and left the two fillies speechless. Rarity then took the path back to town.

"Wow... I... I think we should have left her alone." Babs said. Applebloom didn't say anything but merely nodded.

"Let's go back to the farm... not much we can do for Rarity anyways." Applebloom said. With that, the two fillies made their way back. Babs couldn't stop thinking about what Rarity had told them. And the fact that she had actually gave in and told them. That probably meant that this was affecting her even more than she showed. If only Babs could help her... but how? Giving up was most definitly not an answer. She needed to get Rarity out of her shell and talk a little more. Babs wasn't exactly a good pshyciatrist but it was better than nothing. They had to get Sweetie to help. How long had she known, though? She was the closest to Rarity and if anypony could help the distraught mare, it was Sweetie Belle.

Author's Note

I'm not particularly proud of this chapter. I just don't like it. Mostly because it's short and doesn't have any clop in it. But I guess I needed at least one chapter without clop. I really do apologise for this being short but writer's block has been worse than it usually is. I pushed through to give you this. Expect part 2 in... the next couple of days? Maybe Friday. We'll see, though. But let's see what you guys have to say about it. Stay awesome fellow bronies and, as always...

Chapter 7: The Cutie Mark Crusader Detectives (Part 2)

The small unicorn sat on her haunches in the treehouse, basically doing nothing. She was just so bored that she was suprised that she had not yet gone insane from the lack of excitement. She wanted to find her cutie mark today, but doing crusades without her friends is a bad idea. She learned the hard way last time. She could still remember the bee stings. It was apparant, that day, that she wasn't destined to be a bee farmer. Oh well, when one door closes, another opens.

"Come on, Sweetie... what to do, what to do?" Sweetie belle said to herself, "THINK!" After a minute of deep thought, she just slumped onto the floor and yelled, "Why is life so ironic?!" Well, it seemed like the thing to say at the time, even though she really didn't know its true definition. Her ears perked up when she heard the familiar sound of her friends talking. She got up and looked out of the window to see them at the front door.

"Hey, Sweetie!" Applebloom said. Sweetie smiled and trotted to the door, which opened to, obviously, reveal two of her three best friends in the world. She hadn't been seeing much of Scootaloo and that was beginning to be quite the inconvenience since they were supposed to work on a school project together.

"Hey guys! What's up?" Sweetie said, her squeaky voice coming out to show itself. She knew something was wrong the moment Applebloom hesitated and looked like she was searching for the right words.

"What...? What's wrong?" Sweetie asked, afraid of the answer that would surely follow.

"Well... me and Babs here followed yer sister, Rarity. She uhm... stopped at some bushes outside of town an' opened some kind of small lockbox. It had some pictures of some stallion, too. The thing that got us was that she was cryin'." Applebloom hesitantly explained and went on to ask Sweetie, " You wouldn't happen ta' know what that was about, would ya?"

Sweetie sighed, not knowing how to go about this, "Well, I do. And it's better that we not get involved. I've been your friend for years now and by just looking at your face, I know that she told you. I know my sister and I know you, Applebloom. Just... leave it be. She needs to find her own way."

Babs spoke up through her unnatural quietness, "Well... that may be the case. But shouldn't we at least try? I mean, she obviously is sad."

"I wish that it was that easy, Babs. believe me, I've tried. She won't talk to me about it and acts like she made a stupid mistake telling me about it. I'll bet you fifty bits that she has that look on her face, now more than ever." Sweetie said. She loved her best friends like they were family, but sometimes, they just never learn when to let things go that aren't in their control.

"Ah stil think we got ta do somethin' and not just sit here with our hooves up our flanks" Applebloom said. Sweetie sighed once again and decided that she would go along with this, even if there was no chance that they could fix it. She didn't want to seem like a bad sister but it just couldn't be done. This was a kind of wound that you had to let heal and not pick at.

"Alright. I'll go with you and see if we can help Rarity." Sweetie said, throwing up her hooves. Hesitantly, she went with Babs and Applebloom. They made sure to lock the treehouse on the way out. They weren't afraid of it being broken into, but it made them feel like they had a real house. You know... kid stuff.

"So, are we going to Rarity's house?" Sweetie asked her two friends. Neither of them looked her way but merely kept on walking.

"Not yet. We need all the help we can get on this. So it's a good idea to round up Scootaloo, Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy. If this has been going on for years, then we need to tackle this problem together." Babs said, her voice taking on the edge of a leader. It turned Sweetie on to see such a commanding tone in the city filly's voice. But now wasn't the time for fooling around. Sweetie nodded her response and they walked on, the sun's rays shining down upon them. Such a beautiful day for an intervention....
