Chapters Princess celestia paced back and forth in front of the large, ornate, oak doors and paused in her pacing. Will i be a good aunt? Will the foal be like my beloved? She shook her head and sat down in the hallway. She said she would come back out soon. Its soon. The princess groaned openly and the guards jumped a little at the sudden outburst.
The guards, guarding the hallway entrance, looked back and shook their heads at the nervous princess. "So, how goes the wait dear sister?" Luna trotted down the hallway and sat down next to her sister. Celestia flinched at the sudden contact, but quickly leaned into the embrace of the smaller alicorn. "I tire of this wait. I want to see her."
Celestia, being as old as she is, was a master at the waiting game. This wait, however, was trying her patience. It wasn't that she didn't like the wait, she loved waiting for things to come, but she didn't like to wait this long for a life to be brought into the world. Her wife, princess of the weather, aurora; has been in her room for over 11 months and hasn't come out yet.
She insisted on being in her room for the pregnancy and she had a reason for it. She wasn't like other alicorn's, no, she was an anicorn. A animorph AND an alicorn. Being half animorph, she could change into certain animals at certain times and on her own free will. She almost bit off the head of a pony who tried to coax her out of her room.
Quite literally.
If she decided to do something, and she often does, she does it. She had a tendency to take her animorph genes and abuse them; only slightly. She was the definition of a pony prankster.
Celestia opened her eyes and looked to her sister. She had grown up so much since she came back a year ago. She had made many genuine friends, created an example to the fillies and colts, and modernized quite quickly. Her height had increased slightly and her coat took a dark shade of purplish red instead of the usual dark blue. Her eyes changed slightly, but to the average pony, her eyes would look normal.
But her sister had spent the last millenia with her sister and noticed the change first.
She shook her head and looked to the doors again. "Sister, Are you alright?" Luna had taken a notice to the way her sister was sitting and she didn't like it. When celestia was relaxed, you could tell, but she was sitting as if someone had lit fire to her coat. Her mane was disheveled, her eyes starting to form bags, and she looked ready to run at any moment.
"I am fine sister; just a little tired." She lied. She hated to lie to Luna, but if she told her how long its been since she slept last, she would insist that she go to bed. "Princess celestia!" Celestia turned her head at the direction of the new, masculine voice and straighten up when she saw who it was.
Her loyal guard, wind rider, had become the new captain of the guard when shining armor got married. He was a large stallion, almost as big as shining, but he made up for the difference in size with his strength. He had a dark blue coat and a light, short blue mane and tail. His eyes were what drew most of the attention to him. Unlike most ponies, where they were usually round and vibrant, his here more like a dragons. Catlike, dull, and almost lifeless. They were a goldish yellow and made any pony straighten up.
"Princess, i have a letter for you from... her" he shuddered at the mention of...her. Celestia grabbed the letter in her magic, broke the seal, and began to read it aloud; almost in a quiet whisper.
"Dear Princess Celestia,
I wish to meet your new daughter in the near future and ask for your permission to come to your lands once again. I wish you no harm and, by doing so, i extend the hoof of friendship or claw, in my case. To prove my intentions, i will come with only my trusted guards and nothing more. I trust that, being the co-ruler of equestria, you will leave your guards on high alert, but please grant me and my guards passage to see the new princess of equestria. My mate, Firo Bright Scales, is away in the grifforia and will visit at a later date.
With high regards to you and your wife, Queen Eqius Bright Scales, co-ruler of the badlands."
Luna took the letter from her elder sister and gasped when she finished reading it. "Eqius Bright scales? why would she, of all dragons, want peace with us?" she looked to her sister who, being the eldest, would answer. Well, she would have, had she not run down the hallway to her own chambers and shut the door with a thud.
Luna took the letter, sighed and rolled it up. "Wind rider; i would like for you to keep an eye on my sister. While i tend to someone important." she nodded towards the doors in front of her and passed the letter back to the Captain. "Of course, your highness." he bowed slightly and turned to trot to the bedroom that the alabaster alicorn disappeared into. Luna turned to the doors once again and took a deep breath before using her magic to open the large oak doors.
The doors creaked open and the princess of the night felt only one thing: fear. As she walked into the dark room, she wondered if she had a death wish or not, but one thing was for certain; she needed to do this.
Whether she wanted to or not.
As the doors swallowed the night princess whole, the guards prayed to Faust that she would come out again.
In one piece.
Author's Note
phew! doen with the first chapter. lets hope the rest will run smoother, faust only knows i need the luck.
Pov: Princess auroraIt's dark here. Oh, so dark and cold. There's no light here; only the emtyness. I want to go home, i dont know where i am, and i hear voices. Sweat voices, dark voices, but voices non the less. I sometimes hear noises i dont recognize, but they seem to keep me here. I don't like the noises. I don't like the voices. I need to get out of here, i want to see the light again, i want to feel to touch of my mare's. I don't feel safe here.
"Hello?" i say into the darkness.
Silence. Not just silence; absolute silence. No echo, no soft creaks: nothing. The darkness... it eats the sound, the air and everything. I dont like the darkness. I want to see my princess' again. My sun, moon, and my dreamer. I miss them.
I feel a pulling sensation on my forhead, no, my horn. I try to ignore it, but the sensation only seems to get more desprate to get my attention. I finally relinguish to it and stand up to fallow it to, where ever its leading me. I stretch a little as i walk on the...ground? I'm not sure what it is, it's light and seems to swallow the darkness. I like it.
I close my eyes and just let it take me by feeling, or tugging, to where it wants me to go. As it leads me, I feel myself changing, physically. I feel the muscles in my back and sides start to tear me open. I open my eyes and see my hooves are growing... appendages. They look like claws, almost dragon like. I felt my wings growing and growing and growing. My body starts to grow as well, getting bigger and growing, scales? I am used to changing, but it still hurts. I lay on the ground and wait for the pain to subside.
Someone help me. I rest my head on the ground and close my eyes as a tear runs down my cheek.
Princess luna: third person
It was a mess. There were books strewn across the floor, claw marks in the marble, and sheets torn from the large bed. She heard a noise, it was almost undetectable, but she heard it. She slowly turned to look in the direction of the noise and saw a large dragons tail. She fallowed the tail up to a body, no bigger than an adult dragons, and to the massive wings. They were shifting slightly, but remained at the sides of the large creature. She continued along the body up to the long neck, and eventually to the large head, almost touching the ceiling with it's spines and horns on its head.
Her eyes shrunk slightly when she realized were the sound was coming from and only increased slightly as she stood there. She gulped and tried to back up, but she tripped over a book, and fell onto her rump. "Ouch! oh...that hurt." She rubbed her sore rump and froze when she felt breath on the back of her neck and slowly turned to face the massive dragon. The dragon was growling deep in her throut and did not like the intruder in HER space. She barred her teeth at the small pony and clacked them together in a mock gesture.
Luna wanted to scream, to run, something. But she doesn't. She just sits there and stares into the dark silver eyes in front of her. Unblinking. Unmoveing. Unwelcomeing. She steels herself and, in a moment of bravery, stands back up. The large dragoness is stunned. Oh, so she wants to be brave, huh? Well, i can change that. The moon princess, with all her might, glared at the dragoness. "YOU WILL NOT SCARE US!" she said in a booming voice that she hoped the dragon would back down with.
She's got heart, i'll give her that, but i want to try som- wait. Why does she smell familiar? The large dragoness leaned down with her powerful neck and took a sniff of the pony trying to intimidate her, and failing miserably. She let loose a low growl deep within her throut and the pony in front of her backed down. The moon princess was baffled.
Why hadn't that worked with this dragon? usually when i do that, all the dragons would be too frightened to harm me in anyway. But this one is different. Somehow, but isn't aurora supposed to be in he- oh. The large dragoness kept sniffing the small dark purple-ish red mare and found a scent she recognized. This pony... she is my mate. which means that... Her eyes turned to slits and she looked to the now frightened pony with happiness and a twinge of confussion.
Luna looked into the eyes of the dragoness and saw the eyes of her friend, wife , and lover. She was about to speak when, her mate aurora, gently licked her cheek. Princess aurora remembered who she was and regained control, if only slightly, of her feral body. She remembered why she went feral, it was instinct. When an animorph becomes pregnant, they take the form of their strongest animal so that they can protect their children.
Aurora's largest form was a black dragoness with sharp horns, claws, and powerful jaws that could break diomand's. Dragoness' were large enough to destroy houses, burn down cities and towns, but they were the most maternal of all the other species. She was no eception. The large dragon closed her eyes and physically moved her throut to allow her vocal cords to connect with her mouth. "I know you, you are the father of my children, arent you?"
Luna was shocked to hear her speak, but closed her eyes and nodded. "Yes, yes i am." The large dragoness took her wing and used it to pull her mate closer to her. The dark alicorn was startled at the sudden gesture, but looked up at her beloved lovingly. "I must say, i can see your spirit in our duaghters, i chose right when i took you as my mate." Luna looked up at her wife suddenly and tilted her head to the side. "Duaghters? there's two?" at that the dragoness nodded and moved slowly to the far corner of the large room; wife in tow.
She stopped at the corner and gently lifted the torn sheets from the sleeping figures in the makeshift nest. "Are they not beutiful? come; see your new daughter's." Luna hesitantly went over to the corner of the room the dragoness was at and looked over the shoulder of her mate. What she saw made her heart flutter with joy, for in the makeshift nest, slept two foal's.
The larger of the two was dark red with red and purple hair. When she opened her eyes slightly, she saw light silver eyes, like her loves. The smaller of the two was pure white with red and hot pink hair and her eyes were open and looking up at her large mother. Her eyes were light blue. She giggled and reached up to the dragoness who, with great care, picked up her youngest duaghter in her arms. "I still have not named them yet. Would you like to?" she looked at her mate and smiled genually.
Luna could barely believed what she had heard. She wants me to name them? She looked at her wife, her daughter, and smiled. " i know the perfect name for our youngest daughter." She trotted over the short distance to her mate and kissed her on the cheek. "How does serion sharptooth windcloud sound to you?" the large dragoness pondered the name i her mind for a moment before she nodded and looked at her newly named daughter who was playing with her hair.
She kissed her duaghter on the cheek, careful not to hit her horn, and looked over at her eldest daughter. "What about her? she still need's a name." Luna walked over to the larger of her daughters and pondered what to name her. To help her think, she picked up the foal in her magic, and gently lied down with her in her crossed hooves.
"What shall i call you dear?" the foal stared at her mother and yawned, "poor filly; need to sleep don't you." The foal sniffed and closed her eyes and unexpectanly started to whimper slightly. Luna's eyes widened before she realized just what the foal needed from her. She picked up the foal in her magic and shifted her position so that her teats were acceptable to her foal.
she set the foal down next to them and the foal quickly found her way to the nearest teat and, with what could be assumed as care, latched onto it; sucking it gently. Luna winced at the sudden contact, but relaxed when she felt her daughter suckle on her teat. She looked at the foal again and noticed how quick she was at finding the source of food. "Swift dawn windcloud." she said out loud to her wife. "Swift? that's a wonderful name darling."
The two mother's sat in content silence with the occasional hiccup of their eldest daughter suckling. That silence was broken, however, when their youngest started to cry. Aurora rolled her eyes and started to sing a lullaby she heard her own mother sing to her long ago.
She sang in a sweat voice, quite unlike a dragon's.
"Hush-a-bye, dont you cry,
Luna was rocking her foal in her arms, just listening to the sweat voice of her lover.
"Dapples and greys, pinto's and bay's,
The princess of the night set her foal into the makeshift nest, sound asleep.
"Bird's and the butterflies,
The great dragoness continued to sing to her dreary filly with her wife next to her, watching her filly calm down and start to drift to sleep.
"When you wake, you shall have.
The dragoness hummed the song for a few more moment's before getting up, with the filly cradled in her massive arm, and set her next to her older sister with a kiss before she pulled the tattered covers over the sleeping pair. She watched them sleep for a few more moments before she turned silently to the massive bed and walking to it. She got on and possitoined herself to accomidate her mate before lifting a wing to allow her love up onto the bed.
The princess of the night smiled and trotted up to the bed, took off her regalia with her magic, and settled into the arms of her love. Aurora layed her wing protectivly over her lover and kissed her forhead.
She watched her wife and foals fall asleep before she lowered her eyelid's to greet the bliss of sleep.
Contentment, happiness, and joy. Those are what the dragon felt wrapped around her wife with her foal's within reach of her.
She was happy.
Author's Note
Here is the next chapter. I appologize for the size of the dragoness's picture, i will fix as soon as possible.
The dragon within: Chapter three
Aurora awoke that morning to find her wife and mate wasn't there by her side. She looked around the room and found a welcome sight. Her mate was feeding her foals next to the makeshift nest, smileling happily. The large dragoness stretched on the bed, quite like a cat would, and ran her serpentine tonque over her sharp teeth. She leaped off the bed, using her wings to catch her, and walked over to her mare.
Luna, still watching the foals suckle, was a little shocked at the sudden contact to her cheek before nuzzleing into the embrace. "Morning love." The great dragoness smiled and sat down next to her. "Do you think i should get some breakfast for us both?"
The sudden question from her lover made her tilt her head to the side. "By yourself? Honey, i dont think it's a good idea." Deep down the feral side of her didn't want her mate to go out of her sight, but the grumble from her stomach, said otherwise. "See? You need food as well as i do." She giggled when she saw her big tough love, blush a deep red. "Fine, but don't take too long."
Luna smiled then winced as her youngest, serion, bit harder than she should on her teat. "Looks like someone else agrees, too." The moon princess sighed and lied down for a moment before she felt a tugging on her horn, telling her it was time lower the moon. "Aurora, could you take the foals for a minute? I need to lower the moon." Aurora nodded and coaxed the foals to her own teats while her lover went to the balcony.
Luna could feel the pull on her horn and sighed when she saw her sister's sun begin to rise in the north. It created a buetiful sunrise with red, yellow, and orange hues in the still dark night sky. It was breathtakeing. But as much as she wanted to enjoy this beutiful sight, she had a duty to her ponies and kingdom. She lit up her horn and slowly, but surely, started to lower the moon. It put up some resistance, but she managed to begin its journey around the world.
When that was taken care of, she went back to the room, using her magic to shut the doors to the balcony. She was surprised to see her dragoness playing peek-a-boo with her eldest daughter, swift. She smiled when she saw the display and went over to the door's to get breakfast for the two. Her wife took notice of this and nodded to her princess before she dissapeared with a kiss to her cheek.
The moon goddess sighed and opened her eyes to greet the much brighter hallway of the castle. She turned to the right and started to trot down the long hallway before going to nightmare's room to quietly slip in. She smiled when she found her other wife in bed, quietly breathing gently, like a true goddess. Luna giggled at her own joke before trotting over to the bed and carefully got on.
"Nightie, nightie wake up." The princess of dreams tried to coax her love out of bed, but to no avail. She then used her wing to tickle her wife in the ribs, before she heard the slight giggles from her nightie. Nightmare tried to remove the offending object, but found too,it difficult to do so.
"Mmmm.... go away mom... i don't want to go to school." The mare of nightmares pulled the covers over her head and shooed her 'mother' away from her. Luna sighed before she got an idea. She lifted the covers and gently licked the opening between her lovers legs, and was rewarded with a moan from the mare above her. She quickly withdrew from her and sat up in bed with a smirk to her lips.
"Mmm... why'd you stop?" The black alicorn sat up drearily to glare at her moon princess with half lidded eyes. "The reason i stopped is because i was only trying to wake you, love." The dark alicorn sat up slowly in bed, looked out the window, and sighed. "I guess i need to wake up anyway, but you need to do something for me." The younger alicorn smirked and leaned in close to the older mare and kissed tenderly with the dark princess.
They stayed like that for several minutes before seperating with a rope of their mixed saliva connecting the two before, it too, broke. "Wa-was that what you *pant* needed?" the darker mare grinned like a school filly and nodded. "Help me get my regalia on honey?" the moon princess nodded and helped her lover out of bed before she too, got off. Nightmare moon was famous for her armor she showed up with a year ago, but quickly grew tired of it. She instead opted for some regalia hoof made by the one and only Mrs. Ironshoe.
She crafted it to be light, beautiful, but strong as dragon scale's. Being an earth pony made her even more famous, but she had some hardships along the way. First loosing her husband in a fire, Then her youngest son to timberwolves, but through it all she kept the promise her father told her to keep. "never loose faith in yourself; never stop being good at hat you do best." Nightmare smiled at the set of regalia before her and , with great care, placed them on her body with the help she recieved form Luna. She looked in the mirror and couldn't help but remember how her mother had told her to be the best too.
Her father had been persistant about training her until the day he died. He wasent a very powerful unicorn, but nightshade her father was good at one thing; killing. He learned from dragons, griffons, timberwolves, other countries, and even from the queen of equestria herself. He learned how to fight and he became the bst hired assassan in the land. He was caught one night, it was in his old age and he becae sloppy, he was charged with over 2,000 deaths across equestria and even in the badlands.
He died with these last words to her as a filly. "You embrace who you are and become the greatest mare you can. You are the daughter of an assasan and a beutiful dragon. Don't forget that. I love you nightie."
She shook the unpleasent thought fom her head and brushed a tear from her cheek before taking a deep breath to steady herself. "Ready to go love?" She turned to the love of her life and kissed her on the forhead. "Yeah, lets get some breakfast." She rested a wing on her lover's back and opened the door with her magic and walked out of the room.
Luna loved to tease her wives a bit while in the castle and she did so as often as possible. The moon princess took her wavy mane and flicked her partner on the rump, elicting a yelp fro the princess of nightmares. She looked forward with an inocent smile and giggled inwardly. Nightmare smiled and giggled sweetly.
Princess celestia.
This can't be happening, it just can't. The monarch of the sun was pacing in front of her fireplace her mane disshelved, eye twitching slightly, and her step daughter, dusk, was calmly reading a 'Daring do' book in front of her. "*sigh* mom, calm down; i'm sure it's not that bad." i don't get why she is freaking out. I read the letter myself, and can't see what all the fuss is about. Maybe she just read it too, quickly and missunderstood it's meaning? That's it.
"Mom, just read the letter one more time; i am sure you just missed something." Celestia stopped in her pacing and grabbed the letter once again and read it aloud.
"My dearest daughter,
I will be visiting shortly to the castle. I will be there in two days time. Make sure your sister behaves herself and i hope to catch up on things with you two. It's been almost 20 years since i have come home, and i think it would be a good time to do so.
Your mother,
Lauren Faust."
The brownish gold alicorn got off the bed and trotted over to one of her 4 mother's and hugged her with her hoove's and wings. Celestia leaned into the embrace of her duaghter and began to cry. Dusk was a little surprised her mom had started to cry but she closed her eyes and began sing to her mom.
"Go to sleep you little filly, go to sleep you little filly.
She gently rubbed her mother's back as she sang.
"Go to sleep you little filly, go to sleep you little filly.
She began to sooth her mother into a calm state. Nothing could be heard but the sound of her daughter singing and the ocassional sniff form the alibaster alicorn.
"Go to sleep you little filly, go to sleep you little filly.
Go to sleep you little filly, go to sleep you little filly.
Go to sleep you little...fillyyy."
As her daughter finished singing to her. she felt happier, more content with herself. Dusk gentely rubbed her mother's back and rested her head on her shoulder. "It's going to be ok mom; i am certain if you relax you will find out how to handle this." The reasuring words of her daughter adn the constant rubbing between her wing's and enjoyed the peace.
Princess aurora.
Where could she be? it's been almost 20 minutes. The large dragoness had the patience of a predater, but for her mate, it was wearing thin with each passing minute. Her foal's were asleep in her arms and she had become bored quite quickly. Without her love there by her side, she didnt have much to do, so she opted for the only thing possible at the time; singing softly.
"Come little ponies, i'll take thee away, into a land of enchantment.
She made sure her fillies were asleep before she set them in the makeshift nest before slipping out of the room.
"Fallow sweet ponies, i'll show thee the way, through all the pain and the sorrows.
As she sang through the hallway, she attracted the attention of the gaurds at the end of the hallway. They couldn't, or wouldn't, move as they listened to the beutiful voice of the dragoness.
"Hush now dear ponies, it must be this way, to weary of life and deception.
The gaurds asleep, the great dragoness could walk freely around the corner to the dinning hall and was oblivios to the audience she had optained.
"Come little ponies, i'll take thee away, into a land of enchantment.
As she finished her song, she entered the dining hall and saw her mate... with another pony. The princess of the weather lost all control at the sight and let her instincts kick in. Her eyes glazed over and she let loose a mighty roar that made both ponies freeze with fear. Luna looked to the entrance of the dining hall and quickly tried to calm down her wife-gone-feral. "Aurora wai-." She felt a great rush of air pass her as the dragoness lungded at the frightened pony next to her mate.
Nightmare felt every inch of her body slam through the walls of the hall and land, bounced more like it, in the open field behing the castle, creating a massive crater. She lifted herself just in time to see a black blur fly towards her.
oh, crap.
She waited to br ripped apart, to be torn into millions of peices, to feel every part of her become covered in teeth, claw, and burn marks.
It never came. She opened her eyes and saw a blue aura around the dragon in front of her. Trying desperately to hurt her in some way, anyway, possible. She smiled but soon frowned when she saw her wife struggleing to keep the mightly beast in her grasp. "Nightmare..hnnggg...GO!" She listened to her beoved and flew back to the castle as fast as her bruised body would let her.
When the dragoness could no longer fight against the force and relaxed. She was gently lowered to the ground and set on her side. "*pant* next time, let me explain to you who i am with before you try to kill YOUR other mate's." The dragoness was shocked to hear this. I have more mate's? but how?
The great dragon lied down on the ground and thought only one thing;what have i done.

The Dragon's herem: chapter four
The Dragon's herem: chapter four
"SHE NEARLY KILLED ME CELESTIA!" Shouted the dark mare to the sun goddess. Ever since she got back in the castle, she was being taken care of by her wife, princess celestia. "Nightie, i know your upset, but would you please hold still so i can clean you up?" The solar princess was having a really bad day. First her former lover sent the letter telling her that she wanted peace between the ponies and dragons, then she got a letter from her mother saying she would be at the castle on friday, and now she was dealing with her wives. Both of them.
"I said she said she was sorry; isn't that enough nightie?" Luna was on the bed, pleading with her beloved to forgive their wife for doing what she did, but to no avail. "I don't care if she said it right now with big puffy eyes and a quivering lip, i will not forgive her." Nightmare was stubborn and she always prided herself in it. All the while, wind rider was sitting in the room as the temporary diplomat to the whole matter. "Look, princess nightmare, i am sure that if you just see what is in her room, you would change your mind about not forgiving her."
"No; i dont care if she has kittens in there, i won't forgive her." Luna sighed and gave up on trying to persuade the ever arguementive mare and teleported herself out of the room. Wind rider, being the loyal captian he was, soon fallowed suite. The dark mare winced in pain when her mate pulled on the band-age's a little forcefully. "Look, if i'm going to be here for you, would you at least be cooperative?" Nightmare lied down on the plush rug, head in hooves, and sighed. Do you think i should go appologize?" The sudden question made the alibaster alicorn pause in mid-wrap and she looked to her mate's face.
"Yes." The short answer made nightmare relax a little. She felt calm and collected when she was with any of her wives, but being with celestia, made her feel like she was special. She closed her eyes and let her sense's be dulled by a light nap. Celestia took notice and used her wing to lightly stroke the dark mares side, lovingly.
Nightmare giggled and rolled to her side to allow the alicorn above her do what she pleased with her body. The sun goddess leaned down and nuzzled her mare before kissing her on the cheek. "I love you nightmare." The mare of darkness licked her mate's cheek and said in a seductive voice. " i love you, too."
Princess luna and aurora.
The dragoness was holding her oldest foal in her arms while her wife was letting her youngest daughter, serion, suckle on her teat. She wasnt happy with her stubborn wife nightmare, but was happy to be with her mate again. "So, i think i may take a liking to these rubies." The dragoness said as she took another large ruby in her claws and bit down on it. "They are quite delicious."
Luna looked up at her partner and smiled softly. "I knew you would, but i dont think you should eat the-." A resounding crunch made her flinch mid-sentence as her lover bit down on an emerald. "Emeralds just yet. *sigh*." The moon goddess shook her head at the large dragon before she lied down with her foal nuzzled safely in her hooves.
She still couldn't believe that she had not one, but two foals to call her own. As the dragoness finished another ruby, she heard soft hoofsteps approach the door. "Luna; we have company." The moon princess looked at her wife and tilted her head before she heard knocknig at the large doors. "It would appear that way." She got up off the floor, foal in one arm, and trotted over to her love. "Here; take serion and hide in the far corner in the dark until i know it's safe." She kissed her mate on the cheek and went to the large double doors.
She looked back to see the last bit of her dragoness' til disppear into the darkness before turning back to the door. She took a deep breath and opened the door.
Who she saw made her pause in welcomeing the pony in. It was nightmare, celestia, and two gaurds. The dark alicorn had her head low with band-ages all across her coat. Her sisterwas smiling at her younger sibling and seemed more relaxed then before. The two gaurds looked ready to bolt at any moment, but stayed at their monarchs side. Luna shook her head and gestured for her wife and sister to enter, but told the gaurds to wait outside the doors.
Luna knew if she was going to get them on auroras good side, she needed to show it to her. "So what brings you to auroras chambers sister? I wasn't expecting company this late." Her wife nightmare, spoke first. "Well, i wanted to appologize to my wife for startling her like that; i had not realized that she would not recognize me."
Luna nodded and found her sister looking around the room with interest. "Dear sister, what hppened to auroras room?" Crap! How am i gonna explain this one? The moon goddess looked around the room herself and came up with a good excuse. "Well, you see, aurora had a mood swing and she kinda remodeled the place." The white alicorn layed eyes upon the small makeshift nest and raised an eyebrow.
"Whats this? Is this a dragons nest luna?" SHIT! I FORGOT ABOUT THE NEST!! the younger alicorn quickly ran out of ideas and sighed, defeated. "Yes, it's for-" they all turned their heads to the darkest part of the room at the faint growl. "Is that who i think it is?" Said the now, terrafied, mare of the night. Luna only nodded.

All three princess' watched as a massive head of a dragon came out of the shadows. Luna was trying to will herself to move, but realized that this was the only way to show them. The great dragoness emerged slowly from the darkness like a true predater. I will not let these ponies come near my foals.
The princess of the sun took a step back only to trip over a book and fall on her back; still staring at the dragon if front of her. "Sister, dont run, i'll explain later." The moon goddess looked at her sister reasuringly and braved herself for what came next. A low growl emmitted from the throat of the mighty beast who slowly crept towards the terrafied pair of gods.
The great dragoness stood as tall as theceiling would let her and let loose a puff of blue flame from her maw. "What do you think you are doing in MY space?" The dark mare, now cowering, looked up to the great dragoness and spoke. "We-well we were just, looking for our wife aurora." The princess of the weather looked down at the two immortals and smiled. "Well, your too, late; shes gone and i have taken her place."
I know its a lie, but i want to see how long i can milk this for. "What do you mean she is gone? Is she dead?" The great sun goddess wanted to lash out at the dragoness, but found herself being resstricted by her sister. "Don't you will only piss her off." Aurora lied down on the floor with her front legs crossed and half lidded eyes looking down on the three ponies. "Your partner, princess luna, tried to persuade me, but i won't leave."
Luna arched an eyebrow at her love who gave a wink to the moon goddess. "Ye-yes i tried, but i was not successful." She looked down at the floor, effectivly giving the impression of saddness. The great dragoness sniffed the air and her eyes shrunk to slits. "You two, i know who you are, but i need to show you something before i know."
She went to the dark corner of the room and came back out with two sleeping figures cradled in her wing. "Tell me; what would you say if i told you that these foals were from her?" She nodded towards the picture on the wall of the two ponies who were married to each other 6 months ago. "What will you three do if i, say, harm these foals in anyway? would you protect them?" She then procceeded to walk towards the, now pissed, alicorn's and calmly placed the sleeping foals in their nest.
"Why would you harm them? they are innocent and have committed no crime." Nightmare barked at the dragon, albiet a bit scared, but she wouldn't show it to the beast who supposedly killed her wife. "You have no say in this, pony , i was talking to the sun goddess." Nightmare growled and sat down on her haunches with a snort. "Becuase she can, if we like it or not." Luna put on a brave face and stood up to the large dragoness. "Now see here, you lizard, we will not tolerate the threat of our daughters." The moon goddess winked to her wife and she took it from there. "Oh you won't, huh? I'll see about that."
The princess of the weather closed her eyes and opened them to reveal her eyes to be glazzed over. "Nightmare, celestia; RUN!!" The two monarchs watched as a forearm was lifted from the dragon and brought down upon the dark mare. They ran out of the room and shut the doors behind them and panted heavily. "*pant pant* i did not think that luna would be brave enough to face a dragon by herself."
"Neither did i, the only time i ever saw her with dragons like that; they gave her gems, they respected her." Celestia remembered the first time her sister faced a dragon without her help.
They had been summoned by the king of the badlands to negotiate the terms of a treaty. At the time they were about teenagers, no more than 100 years old each. They left with their mother to the dragons castle. Luna had went off on her own in the castle and found some teenage dragons. She had been challenged by their leader, thorn, and she accepted.
They had challenged her to king of the horde. She was apprehensive about her sister doing such a thing, but she insisted that she would show these dragons why she was the next ruler of equestria. She fell several times off the giant pile of gems, gaining deep scars and scratches, but she eventualy won. the dragons made her the leader of their grou and thorn appologized to her about teasing her. She was the best dragon they ever had.
They were a bit saddened when she had to leave, but she all ways went to the badlands to keep her status as the leader of the, lunar dargons, as she called them. She still is the leader of that group. "CELESTIA!" The solar goddess shook her head and looked to the door. "Nightmare, you get the guards, i'll help luna." The dark alicorn nodded and ran down the hallway while celestia steeled herself for the possiblely grusome scene she would see.
"Don't break that door, unless you want to see your foals killed." Celestia became hesitant, but proceeded to open the door. What greeted the mare was a weird sight; her sister was cuddling with the dragoness while it whispered into her ear. "Luna, but i thought, you.... huh?" The moon goddess looked to her sister and smiled sheepishly. "Hello sister, i want you to meet your wife, aurora." The great dragoness bowed her head and grinned at the baffled princess. "I appologize for frightening you both, i just couldn't help myself."
Before the alicorn could mutter a single word the door was busted open and a frantic looking nightmare, with her usual armor on, and 6 guards. She looked to her wives, the dragoness, and to the guards. "Uh, never mind guards.' The guards lowered their respective weapons and closed the door behind them.
The dark alicorn was about to question what she missed, but a hiccuping wail made her jump in shock. The large dragoness went over to her crying foal and brought her over to her wife. Luna accepted the foal in her magic and directed her to her teat for the food she wanted. "I would like to appologize nightmare, aurora could not help herself." The great dragon blushed and nuzzled her lovers cheek.
"Sorry, i did not mean to cause alarm." Just as the dark princess was about to speak, a pop resounded through the room and a scroll immerged in front of the alibaster alicron. "I was not expecting any mail tonight." The white alicorn opened the seal and began to read it aloud.
"Dear Princess celestia,
I, princess secron bright scales, here by invite you to the wedding of me and my beloved, tia fang windcloud. I am sure you are as happy as i am to attend this celebration. I wish to gain permission to come to the castle to host the wedding as a sign of peace between the dargons and the ponies of your land. Your daughter is most excited for her big day, i too, am excited to call you and her mother my step parents. You will not be dissapointed to hear this news and i would be most joyous if you would gratn me the rights to bring my friends and family to your lands to attend the wedding.
Your soon-to-be-daughter-in-law,
Secron bright scales."
All eyes turned to the now, statue of a sun goddess, and watched as the scroll fell to the ground.

Mother Is Here: Chapter six
As the queen looked out to her home, she wondered if she would be able to relate to her foals again, but quickly brushed that thought out of her head. "Look out, my fillies, mama's home." With that, she reajusted her saddle bags and continued down the dirt road leading to canterlot.
Princess luna
As the sun set on the horizon, the moon goddess marvaled at her sisters sunset. "You can try all you want, but i will not let you tag me aurora." It had been several hours since the princess' had calmed down from their ordeals and were now playing tag in the garden, well, two of them were. "I'll shall see about that, nightie." The great dragon swooped down and almost clipped the hedge over her sun goddess. "Girls, settle down, you'll wake the foals." The sun goddess was cradleing the sleeping foals in her hooves while the pair was playing.
"She's right, you know, they need their sleep. So come down and get a drink and relax." The moon princess levitated three small glasses over to the table and a barrel for her extra large companian. She felt a gush of wind as the two respective playmates landed in front of the garden entrance. "*pant pant* darn, and i was winning,too." The dark mare shook off some branches and leaves from her mane and coat. "Ha! You call getting your flank burned and getting stuck in a tree winning?" The great dragon was busy picking tree branches and licking scars on her wings see got from a certain dark, blue maned pony.
"Aurora, nightmare; enough. Oh, and aurora, let me look at that cut on your wing; it might get infected." The dark maroon mare set down her drink and went over to her love. "It's fine, just a scratch, compared to what i had before." She shuddered as she remembered what her first wife, nightmare, almost did to her. "I said i was sorry, cant you just forget about it already?" "I cant; especialy when i still am only half a pony, er, dragon." They stared at each other for a moment before they giggled and looked down to the ground.
All of the princess' sat in content silence each in their respective places. Aurora was cuddleing with luna, celestia and nightmare by her side, all pressed to her stomach, and her foals in her arms. Sound asleep. "Well, it alpears that you all are enjoying yourselves."The princess' opened their eyes to see three daughters standing at the entrance to the garden; melody 16 years old, dusk 22 yars old, and tia 18 yers old. "Oh we are. Care to see your new sisters?" The three sisters glanced at each other and trotted, or in the case of tia, wlaked over to their large mother.
The large dragon shifted her arms slightly to present the sleeping foals to their elder sibling's. "Oh, she looks like me." "She has my eyes." "They are so cute." Each sibling siad their respective praises to their younger sisters. "Would you like to hold them?" The sudden made the three big sisters look to their large mother with wide eyes. "Really? You would let us hold them?"
The noise from her made the younger of three nod her head vigorously. "Can i go first? I'll be real gentle." The dragoness chuckled at her daughters excitement and asked her to lie down with her hind legs under her. "Now, make sure to support her head." As melody took her sister in her hooves, she couldn't help but have a big grin on her face. "What's her name mom?" "Her name is serion, serion windcloud. She is your youngest sister."
At that moment the sleeping foal opened her eyes and yawned. "Hey there, little sis, i'm your big sister." The little filly looked up at her older sibling, and laughed, a laugh that sounded like a heavenly angel singing. "B-big sister." All of the goddess' and daughter's gasped at the little filly. "Oh, my little girl's first word's. Let me see her, melody." As luna took her daughter, she smiled a motherly smile, and began to cry tears of joy and sadness.
"Luna, sister, whats wrong?" the moon goddess wiped her tears and smiled up at her elder sibling. "I wonder if mother would be proud of me, i wonder if she still loves us." The sun princess looked at her younger sister and sighed. "Luna, you know she would be proud of you, of both of us." Celestia lied down next to her baby sister and draped a wing protectively on her back.
All of the goddess' sat in peaceful silence, and watched the sun set. "Come on girls, i think it's time to go inside." The large dragon picked up her sleeping elder daughters and carfully put them on her back. "Why don't we all go to our room for the night." Aurora started to walk back to the castle with her other wive's and foals in tow.
The next morning.
As the sun rose the next morning, tia awoke in a strange room. She looked around the dark room and tried to move, but found a massive head over her body. "Mom, mom i need to get up." She used her claws to try and pry the massive head from her,but, to no avail. "Mmmm...tia, back to bed." The great dragoness yawned and shifted her weight slightly before resting again. Tia sighed and looked around the bed and saw her sister's sleeping in her mothers large wings, her mother's all sleeping against her belly, intertwined with each other.
She looked to the corner of the room and saw her younger sibling curled around each other, almost as if protecting each other. The smaller dragoness smiled at the seen before resting her head on her mother's massive arm and drifting into a deep sleep.
A few hours later.
The queen made her way aound the castle to the sleeping quarters and sighed. "I hope they are still asleep, i wouldn't want to wake them." She started to trot down the long hallway and marvaled at how little it changed over the years. She passed a large white door on her right with a sun on it. "Celestia's room. A little different, but still the same." She passed a large black door with a large purple moon on it. "Hm, i dont remember this room, must be a new addition."
She continued down the hallway until she passed two more doors; a large silver one with a cloud and rain on it. "Strange, i dont remember this one either." The great goddess shruged her shoulders and looked to the other large purpleish red door with a white cresent moon. "Luna, my daughter, i have missed you." the powerful goddess yawned and continued for several more feet to two large red wood doors, with an inkpot and quill etched into the old wood.
"*Sigh* It's good to be home." As faust opened her doors to her room, the morning gaurds wondered if the princess' would freak out to know that a certain queen was home at last.
Faust set her saddle bags down neat to the doors and looked around the room. "Well. time to get to work." She lit her horn with light red magic and turned the lights on. She looked around and noticed that there wasn't a single cobweb, no dust, no papers strewn across the room; it was neat, tidy, and looked like the hands of time had not touched a single thing. The queen trotted to the large bookshelf and grabbed several books from the top shelf.
When she set those on the blue sheets of her bed, she opened several drawers around the room and took out papers, ink, and quills out and set them on the desk next to the fireplace. She then proceeded to take a match and lit the old marble fireplace. She settled down on the large round bed and opened a book in front of her. "It's really good to be home." She was startled after several minutes of reading when a knock came at the door. "Enter."
The queen set her book aside, makeing sure to mark the spot she was at, and sat up in the bed. A purple unicorn mare poked her head in and smiled up at the monarch. "Hello your majesty, welcome home." The mare did a quick bow and looked up at the queen with a smile. "Hello, 'pen stroke', i see you haven't changed that much." The large alicorn looked at the 'pony' in front of her and saw right through her disuise. "Solarin, you know i can see through your disguises right?"
The 'unicorn' smirked and a blue aura sarounded her to reveal claws, scales, and large wings. "Sorry, lauren, i can't help myself sometimes." Solarin un folded her wings and stretched catlike in front of the queen. "Hm, true, so how have you been, my love?"
"Lonely, but now that your here, no so much my queen." The dragoness walked over to her lover and got up on the plush bed. "You still are the same after all these years. I missed you." The cream alicorn locked lips with her love and moaned into her mouth. "*pant* So have i." The dragoness curled around her love and kissed her cheek then rested her head on the bed. "I love you, faust." "As do i, solarin." With that, the mighty queen fell into a deep sleep beside her lover.

Old Flame's and Explaination's: Chapter seven
"Dear, queen eqius bright scales,
As the letter was taken by a messanger bird, the princess of the day breathed a sigh of relief. Her daughters were playing with nightmare in a game of paint war. Her sister and aurora retired to there room to have some 'alone time' and asked her to watch the foals for them. She had serion in her hooves and swift was suckling at her teat.
She was talking to her loyal guard, wind rider, about were to put the new rooms in the living quarters in the next hallway. The discussion was brought up by luna after she figured that the foals would need there own room soon and asked her elder sister to see to it for her. "Well, if we put their room here," wind rider pointed at a peice of paper in front of the princess, indicating the emty space between melody and dusks room's "we should be able to accomodate them."
"Hm, alright, just give me two hours to draw the blueprints and then you can give it to the usual builders." Wind rider nodded and took the parchment with him as he left the room. "Oh and princess, we have a guest here that wish's to see you and your sister in the throne room in a few minutes." Celestia did a double take and shook her head. "Alright, i will wake my sister and be there in a few minutes."
As he left, the sun goddess wondered who this geust was, asking for her and her sister like that. "Whoever it is, i am sure they can wait a few more minutes." Celestia took her sleeping foals and gently wrapped a blanket around both before opening the doors. She levitated a sling for each foal so she could carry each on her side. When she was sure they were both comfortable, she trotted down the hallway to her sisters room.
On the way, she could her loud moaning and bed springs creaking from her sisters room.sister, why must you two do that now? Now i am glad we put the children's living quarters in the other hallway. As she got closer to the room, the creaking and moaning got louder, until a mighty roar echoed through the hallway, fallowed by a powerful scream of pleasure. The monarch of the sun used all her will power not to face-hoof at that moment.
The door opened to the moon goddess' bedroom and a smiling princess came out with a dragon fallowing. Both looked satisfied and were playing with each others hair or tail. "Sister, how are you? Have fun in there?" Both princess' blushed deeply before looking away form each other. "Y-Yes we did, but what are you doing here sister, with the foals?" The large dragon nuzzled her small wife and children before picking up the sling from the sun goddess with bothe foals inside. "Well, while aurora watches the foals, our presence is requested in the throne room."
"Really? Someone demands our presence? lets just hope that whoever they are, are prepared to get an ear full." As the princess' said their respective good byes, the dragoness wondered if she should fallow, but decided against it.
Throne room; five minutes later.
Muffled laughter could be heard outside of the great throne room as the princess' stood there. "Well, whoever it may be, i can see that they have a sense of humor." Luna said to her chuckling sibling, but something made her hesitant to open the doors. She pressed her ear against the doors and listened intently for any indication to the pony's identity. "...Yes, that is true, but if she only asked i would have said so."
The princess of the sun also pressed her ear to the doors to listen. "...But he insisted on greating me with his family, so i did and i now have a steady supply of emeralds form their mine every few months, oh don't get me wrong your highness. I pay them for all the eneralds and i give them to my kingdom as a sign of respect." Both princess' were shocked to hear those last few sentences and abruptly pulled back from the doors. "There's royalty from a different country here? Why?"
The monarch of the sun blushed slightly and explained the letter she got form a certain princess and waited for her sister's reaction. "Well, this changes things, dosen't it." The dark princess re-adjusted he regalia and tilted her head to the guards. "Open the doors please." The guards nodded to the princess and opened the doors and stood inside with the great monarchs. "I must apologize for our tardiness...we...were...preoccupied."
As the word's died in her mouth, the sun goddess looked straight at the other ponies in the room, particularly at the one in the throne. A large cream alicorn was giggling with a small dragon by her side and two mare at the bottom of the throne. One of which celestia recognized. "Eqius, is that really you?" The darker of the pair of dragons turned toward the sun goddess and smiled. "Celestia! Its been a long time since i have seen you last." The large dragoness walked up to the the smaller sun princess and nuzzled her cheek lovingly. "Eqius, i have missed you."
"Well, it seems my daughter is pleased with her, but no hugs for your mother?" The cream alicorn leaped off the great throne and landed gracefully next to the large dragoness with her lover in tow. "My daughter, it has been a long time." The great queen looked down at her slightly shorter daughter and reachd out a hoof in a welcomeing gesture.
Celestia trotted into the embrace of her mother and started to cry tears of joy as her mother sat down on her haunches with her filly in her arms. "Its alright; mother's here. Shh... Its ok." The smaller of the two sister's looked at her mother with hate and disgust. "Hello, mother." The malice was practicly dripping from the luner princess' voice. "Luna, whats wrong honey?"
"Celestia, i'll be in my room; see you later mother." With that, the younger sibling turned and trotted past the great doors and turned left down the hallway. "Celestia, is there something wrong with your sister?" The sun god wiped her tears and looked up at her mother. "*sniff* i think that she might still be mad at you from last time." The queen nodded and helped her daughter up and turned to her love. "Celestia, this is drenco; my mate, drenco, this is my eldest daughter, celestia."
The two looked each other up and down and smiled. "You look like your mother." "My mother has good taste in lovers." With her mate and daughter well aquanted, the queen turned to her two other guests. "Princess secron , you have my permission to host the wedding here at the castle, but make sure that your family doesn't do anything they'll regret later." Secron nodded and took a step back form her mother so the queen could speak to her.
"As for you, queen eqius, you may stay here at the castle as long as you wish and when your mate gets here he may stay with you as well." The queen nodded and her and her daughter bowed to the queen before walking past the two rulers and left to there own rooms.
"Drenco, i need to talk to my daughter privately, you wait in our room." The red dragoness nodded and walked out of the throne room with the guards fallowing suite closing the great doors behind them. once the two were alone the queen looked at her daughter with a stern face and asked calmly. "Celestia sun-dancer faust, you have some explaining to do young filly." The solar princess gulped and started to explain what had happened in the last twenty years he mother had been gone.
After she had explained everything, her mother had the same expression she had at the beginning. "That's not everything, is it?" Celestia sat down with a sigh and shook her head. "No, there is a few more things i didnt mention." The queen looked at her daughter and nodded for her to continue. "Well, you know how i said that there was a few wedding's you missed, i never told you who were the one's getting married."
The sun goddess reached into her large neclace with her magic and pulled out a chain necklace with four rings on it; each a different color. Black, dark purple, dark grey, and dark blue. "These are form my mates; i was married to them each in turn and they are all..." The queen was loosing her patience with her daughter and stomped a hoof on the ground hard enough to break the marble flooring. "We grow tired of your hesitance; TELL US WHO YOU HAVE MARRIED!"
Celestia flinched visably and drew a deep breathe before continuing. "I have married princes aurora, princess nightmare, queen chrysalis, and my sister. I am happy with them and they are with me." She shut her eyes and waited for her mother to react. She waited for her to get mad, for her to strike her, to do some bodily harm to her, but she didn't. Why hasn't she lashed out at me? Is she just waiting for me to continue?
Faust was still trying to prcess what her daughter has just told her. She got married? To three mares, one of which is her own sister? Wait, who are the other two? "Explain to me who the other two are." Celestia opened her eyes and shook her head. "I can't tell you who they are, but i can show you who they are." The great sun goddess turned around and beckoned for her mother to fallow.

Not done with this chapter yet, so bear with me. All of the characters you dont recognize belong to me. The rest to lauren faust and hasbro. If you would like for me to put an oc in the story for the wedding scene, just leave a comment.
The wedding: chapter eight
After all that has transpired between the two, they finally are settling their differences. Over what? A simple game of chance of course. Iana and nightmare are playing a game called arm wrestle. The alicorn's grip was true, but her strength was faltering ever so slightly in the dragons favor. Iana smirked as she saw the opportunity to win this round and, not wishing to waste anymore time, she pushed the black mares arm down and declared victory.
The dark alicorn's look went from exuastion to anger.
"You cheated!" She stood up, slamming her hooves down on the log. She liked to cheat on occasion, but when she gets cheated, she is no longer playing nice with anyone anymore. She was now livid, making eye contact with the large lizard before her.
"I did not, you lost and I won. And of story." Her smirk beheld a childish behavior and with a bow, she turned to grab a barrel of cider, only for it to be moved out of reach of her hand by dark blue magic. She narrows her eyes a bit and turned back around, warning a solid, armor clad hoof to her jaw.
