A terrible mishap accured while Twilight Sparkle was at the Crystal Empire. The only survivors are Rainbow Dash and Scootlaloo. Do they have something to do with it?

While Twilight was away at The Crystal Empire, something horrible happened to Ponyville. She only heard of this when she got a letter from Princess Luna telling her to go right away. She found all of her friends dead. But Rainbow Dash was alive and well. So was Scootaloo. Shining Armor and Princess Cadence have their suspicions of Dash and Scootaloo. But Twilight doesn't. She does want to find out what went wrong though. Through the Princess' names.

Finding Everypony

I did as she said and left without even packing. Before I even got there I saw very few still standing buildings. Luna was standing by Town Hall. Well, what used to be Town Hall.

"What happened?" I asked already dreading every second.

"I don't know. But as soon as my sister hadn't arrived after 30 minutes of her schedule, I knew something was wrong."

"Wh-where are m-my friends? Are they d-de-dead?" I could barely get the words out.

"That's what I'm afraid of. We have to get every pony-- dead or alive out of this mess."

I went straight towards sweet apple acres. I heard left over rummage fall. Most of the trees were still intact. I used my magic to take some of the wood off. Right then I saw a chair post and pale green skin. I bit my lip. Before dragging the broken body out I tried to find AJ. Before taking off any more than 30 more planks I found Big Mac and Apple Bloom. I took the bodies off the rubble and onto the soft dirt. I took the rest of the barn wood down. No Apple Jack. I heard wings behind me. I expected Luna, but I was not expecting this.

"You alright Twi?"

"R-Rainbow Dash?" I turned around. She's alive!!

"Yeah it's me. She-she's at Pinkie's."

"Apple Jack?"

"Yeah. I found her-- next to Pinkie. She looks bad. I think she tried to guard Pinkie because she's crushed and Pinkie only has some bruises. I-I couldn't stop this. I don't even know what happened. I found ol' Scoots here hangin' around town. She said she was riding her scooter on the streets when it all happened. She's at my place right now."

"Who did this? What even happened?!"

"Well  there was this huge explosion and next thing you know, there's a giant dust ball crushing everything."

By the time we had gotten that far in the conversation, he had gotten to the Carousel Boutique. We walked by and instantly saw three ponies by the "entrance". We walked around finding six total before finding Rarity hugging Sweetybelle. It looked how Dash had described Pinkie and AJ. No one was alive there. I gathered the bodies by the boutique. We hesitantly went towards Fluttershy's place. She was right at the base. Angel was a little further back. As for the other animals, they were scattered all over. Fluttershy looked so peaceful. Her arm stretched out a little with her other under her chin. Her hind legs were as if she was trying to crawl out. She probably was. She didn't  look too bad except a big bump with a little blood on her head, and a little bit of blood on her mouth. Her mouth only slightly open and her eyes closed. Her pink hair had only small tangles and ears down. I took everyone out and aligned them by the river. I was holding back pure anger and saddness.

"Ca-can we go to your place Dash? I need a break."

"Sure pal. I do too."

Explaining Everything

"Guys may I talk to you?"

"Hey what's wrong?" Cadence replied.

I explained the story up to date.  I ended up crying after rainbow went to her house.

"I-I-I just don't know what went wrong." I was sandwiched between Shining and Cadence with spike on top of me. It felt weird.

"Did you see any smoke or anything?" I said.

"No, Never. We were worried though when you got that letter. Then I got REALLY concerned when you didn't do our handshake." Cadence said with a small chuckle.

"So you said Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo were the only survivors right?" Shining said.

"Yeah why?"

"What of they had to do with it?"

"What? Dashie and Scoots? No way not a chance."

"We'll it was just a thought."

"I'm gonna go back over there. Bye guys. Thanks for cheering me up." I trotted out and thought. Rainbow and Scootaloo? It couldn't be. Or. Or could it? Nah.

Goin Back To Dash

When I got to Dash's house, Scootaloo wasn't there. "Where's Scootaloo?"

"She's out walkin around. Said she needed a break. She'll be a while."

"Oh. Ok. So you wanna chill out here or--"

"Yeah let's stay here."

"O-k." I said confused.

The radio was on a slow song for some reason.

"Lost the radio. Scoots was listening to it. And she lost it somewhere."

I nodded and sat next to Rainbow Dash in silence for a few minutes.

"So have you talked to Luna yet?" Dash asked.

"No I just came back from Canterlot. "

Dash scooted closer, her face concerned but eyes sneaky, like they had secrets.

"Um-" I started, trying to break the tension. "Shining said that YOU might've done it. Ha! I denied it of course."

"What me?! Likely story. The damage would've been 20% cooler if it was me!" She scooted closer again. Her eyes getting darker by the second. By now we were on the same couch cushion. Why couldn't I move away? Was I... Liking this? Dash leaned on me for a minute. The warmth of her face felt warm. Relaxing. I returned the snuggle. I jumped at the feeling of a sudden pinching feeling. Had Dash just nipped my neck? I felt it again. She did. But I liked it. I cuddled harder. Dash was kissing and licking all over my neck by now. Up and down and up and down and  up and down. Like a pattern. Then came the sudden surprise of a kiss on the cheek. She got closer and closer to my lips. When she did get there it was passionate. Dash put  a hoof of my shoulder and resumed. She went back down to the neck. Dash started kissing my chest after a minute. The sudden feeling made me moan in pleasure. Dash got to the lower belly when i put my hoof on her back. She closed her eyes tighter than they already were. She got lower and lower then went strait up when she was at the waist line.

"Don't be too quick." She said. She stopped everything and sat there in silence. What had just happened? We were sitting, then kissing, now we are ignoring? My  thoughts were swimming. Just then Scootaloo came in.

Dash Explodes

I immediately  blushed, but hid it. Dash just said "HEY Squirt. Where'd you go?  You weren't gone as long as you said you'd be."

"Oh um... I um. Saw. Sweetie Belle. And Applebloom."

"I TOLD you not to go there! I knew you'd see them. I should've known! How bout you look for the rest? Huh?! Listen. Just. Go. Go look around. Do whatever."  Scootaloo frowned.

"Why did you yell at me Dash? I know you didn't wanted me to go, but you don't have to snap."

"I'm sorry. I'm really stressed. Just. Go." Scootaloo frowned and left.

"Now. Where were we?" Rainbow Dash said.

I just blushed again.

"It's ok. Don't be worried."

She leaned closer. Again. She started to kiss my cheek. Then forehead. Then nose. After a few seconds she got to my lips. I blushed more. Dash separated from me and started kissing my neck.  I was frozen.

"C'mon! Tilt your neck. It feels better." Dash said. I did as I  was told. She was right. It did feel better. Our breaths became shuddery.

"See told ya." Dash said. She went back up and kissed my lips. Her lips opened forcing mine open as well. She started slying her tongue in after about twenty seconds. I didn't resist but embraced. We made out for a while. Dash once again separated and went back to her partners neck.  She was using teeth and tongue by now. She started kissing lower and lower on my body. She was at the middle of my stomach when she stopped moving, but resumed kissing. After a little bit,  she kissed my cutie marks. She started going towards my plot. I moaned almost silently (but hearable) as Dash reached her destination.

"Mmm you like that"? Dash blurted. I remained silent. She went back in again surprising me.  I practically screamed in surprise. I blushed at the sudden outburst.

"Heh" was all dash said.

She licked my clit for a minute before plunging her tongue in for dessert. I yipped when she did. She started kissing my lips again. I didn't mean to, it just came naturally. I started rubbing her clit. She broke the tension by speaking.

"Ahh finally giving in are we?"

I remained silent and brought her back to my lips. For the first time, she moaned. Not loud, but hshe moaned.

At The Restaurant

While there we decided to split the pay in four, so no one had to pay too much since it was a very fancy which means expensive restaurant.

"Good evening I am your waiter Horte Cuisine. And what would you want tonight?" The fanciest looking pony I have ever seen was taking our order. Rainbow Dash chimed in first.

"I'll have the salad and extra croutons along with the potato soup please." She said very politely. Then Shining ordered.

"I will take the fettuccini and alfredo sauce along with the grilled shrimp with a small dipping cup of alfredo sauce on the side please."

"I will take the spaghetti with light red sauce and sun dried tomatoes with a side of garlic bread please." I said casually-politely. Cadence went last.

"May I please have a small cup of caviar with the vegetable soup and a cup of sparkling apple cider for all please." She said as nicely as possible. We all stared in awe as she ordered her food.

"And I'll take a separate check." She said with a small chuckle."

"Will that be all?" He asked us.

"No thank you Horte."

"Any appetizers?"

"Please. I will have the fried zucchini along with the mozzarella sticks please." I said blushing before anyone said no.

"Your appetizers will be  out shortly."

After he left, Dash spoke in the silence.

"So I hear you think I'm the ol' crime-doer huh?"

"Rainbow Dash!" I hissed.

"What I deserve the right to know."

"We'll we weren't blaming you, we were just saying that because you two were the only survivors." Cadence lied.

"Suuuuuuure"

"C'mon Dash stop it! You're going to cause a scene." I hissed again.

"Alright, alright I'll stop. But just after I hear the truth. Why do you really think I did it? Did you SEE anything? Did you HEAR anything? Huh? Huh?" She was getting louder at each word? "Do you think I meant to do this?! Do you think I meant to kill anyone and everyone I loved?! Why would I ever do this HUH?! WHY WOULD I WANT TO KILL ANYONE I KNEW?! ESPECIALLY IF THEY DIDN'T DESERVE IT?!" She was shouting and leaning over the table at Cadence by now. She was also on the verge of crying.

"I was just--"

"I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! YOU ARE TRYING TO GET ME PUT IN JAIL. WHERE I WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE ANYONE ANYMORE! I WON'T STA D FOR IT!" She clanked on her glass as loud as she can without breaking it as if to get everypony's attention. (As if that was needed) "EVERYPONY! I WOULD NEVER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENED IN PONYVILLE! NO MATTER WHAT CADENCE SAYS TO YOU!!" Tears were streaming down her eyes now. I've had enough. I pulled her back onto her chair and started to comfort her. I was talking to her telling her to calm down. That everything was going to be alright.

"STOP!" She screamed while proceeding to push me off of my chair. Not purposely or painfully. It really didn't hurt. Everyone gasped at her. She stayed still for a few seconds. Then she dashed out of the restaurant leaving a rainbow trail behind her.

"Dash!" I yelled going after her." It took me about five minutes of chasing her I slowly caught up to her. "Dash please! You didn't mean it! Just stop!" I told her.

"NO! She was still crying. "Leave me alone! I really CAN get arrested now for verbally assaulting a princess!" She slowed down a little to walking speed. "I would have physically abused her if you hadn't pulled me back. I just... Just had to get out of there. I wouldn't have been able to eat with everyone staring at me for that. I'm sorry."

"Listen I understand. I would be upset if I was accused of something like that too." I said reassuringly. "C'mon let's get to ground so we can talk." She said nothing but did listen and tilt downwards to go to the ground. She sat down and put her hooves on her face and yelled in them. I was standing for a good five minutes before deciding to sit down. Dash was still facing away from me with her hands in her hooves. It was getting dark now. I got up and walked a couple feet away. I felt safer like that. I didn't want to talk to her fearing she'd snap again.

~~~

Shining Armor and Cadence went to Rainbow Dash's house to give her and Twilight their food. Shining knocked on the door while Cadence hid afraid of what would happen. The door unlocked and opened.

"I don't want to talk to you." Scootaloo said before looking up. Seeing who it really was at the door and immediately bowed down and apologized.

Prince Armor, I'm so sorry I thought you were Rainbow Dash. Please forgive me."

"Ha I forgive you, but why do you not want to talk to Rainbow Dash? And please, call me Shining Armor."

"Well she sorta snapped at me earlier for getting into trouble. But it was so random."

She described what had happened earlier.

"Well looks like she is a very snappy pony lately. She snapped at Cadence here at the restaurant. We were just returning her's and Twilight's food. Obviously they aren't here, but, will Twilight be staying here?"

"I guess. She was here earlier so, yeah." Scootaloo said.

"Here the.  Put that away for them. Tell them we paid."

"Ok thanks for stopping by."

They went back to the castle to take care of Spike.

"Where's Twilight?" Spike had wanted to be with her ever since she left.

"She went back with Rainbow Dash." Cadence said without talking about warlords incident to spare Spike's feelings and worries. He frowned and sat back down. "Don't worry. I'm sure she'll come back tomorrow." Shining said.

"She'd better. Or I'm finding her myself. " he said tucking himself into bed. He fell asleep immediately. They didn't even bother arguing with him at this hour. They just went to their room to talk.

~~~~

The last thing I remembered was fighting off sleep. Then next thing I know, it's morning. But not only that, but Dash is huddled up against me. She must have came to me when I was sleeping.

"Dash?" I whispered. "Dash wake up. It's morning."

"Hmmm." Was all she said.

"We need to get back to Scootaloo." No reply. "We need to eat." No reply. "We need to feed Scootaloo?" I tried one more time.

"Who cares about her anyway? She can starve." She said.

"Hey now that's just mean." I said.

"Whatever." She replied coldly.

"Dash. Up. Now." I ordered.

"UUGH I'm up!" She groaned. "Happy?"

"Yes. Now let's go." I said.

On our way back she apologized for the mishap. I went to her house with her, stayed with her for around twenty minutes, but then left to see spike. I bet he misses me. My wings hurt from flying all that way, so I took a train.

~~~~

That's it I'm going to look for her. I'm taking the next train to Ponyville to look for her. He packed his little hobo bag for proof. He checked the time after the train schedule. Half an hour till the next train. Then that's exactly how long she has to return. He started walking toward the train station. When he got there, there was still a good ten minutes before the train arrived. He had no idea that Twilight was on that train. When the train arrived, he started getting on when both he and Twilight spotted each other.

"Spike?" "Twilight?" They both exclaimed at the same time. Along with a laugh. They both got off.

~~~~

I spotted a little purple and green creature with a blue and white hobo bag with polka dots. I automatically recognized it.

"Spike?" "Twilight?" Ha. We both said it at the same time. Then we chuckled and got off of the train.

"Twilight I was so worried! I was going to come look for you." He said half panicky.

"We'll I guess you don't have to." I replied.

"What happened anyway?" He asked.

"Dash and I fell asleep on the way back to her house."

"You mean you didn't take a train?! Your wings must hurt!"

"Believe me they do, but I'm fine don't worry. I would have been here sooner if I wasn't."

"Why didn't you just go to her house anyway?" Spike asked.

"We'll she sorta had a meltdown at the restaurant and flew out and I chased her. We ended up going to the ground and I fell asleep, then she did as well." I explained to him.

"Oh. What kind of meltdown?"

"Just some false brain messages." I really didn't want to tell the story, especially to him. He would just ask questions about it all day and night.

"Oh ok." He finally said getting the hint. We walked away to the room that we're staying in. I told him most of the things I did at Dash's house. Most, being the key word. I didn't tell him about the whole make out session. Who knows what he would've said?

"So you... Found them all?" He asked.

"Yes. It felt horrible. Here pretty soon I'm going to go check up on Luna. She told us that she wanted time alone, and when we went and checked on her, she was sleeping. So we didn't bother her."

So... Celestia is..."  Spike started to ask before I answered him before he said that word.

"Yes Spike. Celestia is no longer with us."

"Are YOU hurt?"

"No. Why would I be hurt?"

"I am just making sure Twilight. I really love you. And if you were hurt I'd do anything to heal you. Your like my mother." He said.

"... I AM your mother Spike. I'm the one who hatched  you from you egg and took care of you from day one. You aren't just my assistant. You are my son." I said sympathetically. He smiled shyly and blushed. "Tell me you got sleep last night." I said.

"I did. Cadence told me I started snoring as soon as the blanket was over me." We both giggled at him.

"Come here spike." I sat down waiting for a hug from him. I was surprised when she tackled me to the ground in a bug tackle hug. I yelped but soon replaced it with a big laughter. I felt so safe with him. We spent the next few hours talking with Shining and Cadence about many things. None of us brought up the disaster. We shared many laughs and hugs and pushes. It felt so good to laugh again.

"Well I better go check on Luna now." I said after Shining told a funny joke.

"What am I not funny enough for you?" He said with a smirk. We all laughed again. I pushed him over and gave him a hug.

"C'mon Twilight can't I come too?" Spike asked sadly.

"Ok. But just this once. You HAVE to either be on my back or by my side the whole time though." I replied.

"Alriiiight." He said annoyed.

"Hey. I don't want you seeing the things I did. It's just too much. Ready?"

"Yeah let's go!" He said with a big smile.

Going Back With Spike

Before we got to the train station Spike and I talked about what and what not to prepare for. Like don't prepare for the worst. It is just a lot of crushed buildings for the most part. Do prepare to see bodies of ponies we do or don't know.

"Maybe I should send Luna a letter to see if she's still at Ponyville. But UGH I don't have my quill or ink. Spike?" I said.

" Nope sorry I didn't think we'd need them." He replied.

"Oh well if she's not there the. We'll visit Dash.

"But Twilight!" Spike begged. "You've been at Rainbow Dash's house forever! Why can we see someone else?"

"Who is there to see Spike? Everyone's ghosts?" I said annoyed. " Remember? Giant dust ball? Crushed buildings? TWO. Survivors?"

"Oh um... Right."

"Come on let's just go." I said.  When we got to Ponyville I first went to Town Square just to see if she was there. When she wasn't, I went to Zecora's.

"Why are we going to the Everfree Forrest Twilight?" Spike asked, showing the fright in his voice.

"This was the last place I saw Luna. Don't worry." I said without looking back on Spike of whom was on my back. He stayed silent the whole rest of the way. When we got there he hopped of to explore, but I immediately grabbed his tail in my teeth then with my magic.

"Just where do you think you're going mister? What was out deal?"

"Oh yeah. Right that. Ok." With that he stayed right beside me while we looked for Luna. We saw her just as she was leaving.

"Princess Luna wait!" I yelled.  She jumped and twirled around.

"Oh. Twilight you have scared me."

"Sorry princess. I was going to talk to you again last night, but you were asleep by your sister so I left you alone." I said. She bowed her head and spoke in soft words.

"That is quite alright. I have taken my beloved sister to a place where no one has to discover her body anymore. I have sent her to the royal burial grounds. We shall have a funeral in three days time.”

I walked up to her slowly and gave her a slight nuzzle to predict a hug. Then, like I said, hugged her. She did return the hug due to her sadness. I felt a single tear drop on my right shoulder. As a princess she is expected to keep her emotions back. But this was on of the many exceptions. I let her keep the hug in hold as long as she wanted. She let go after about a minute.

"Thank you Twilight Sparkle. For all of your help. I would not like to be the one to find my sister like this. Please, come to the funeral." She pleaded.

"I will. Why wouldn't I? She's my mentor, teacher, and the princess of Equestria." I smiled with care.

~~~~

When Rainbow Dash got home, Scootaloo immediately ran to the room that she was staying in.

"Wait!" Dash called out. Scootaloo came back out a few seconds later.

"Oh what's the point of being mad anymore. Princess Cadence and Shining Armor came and brought yours and Twilight's food back here."

"They came all the way over here just to give us out food?!"

"Yeah and they paid too."

"Wow. That had to be at least 25 bits for each of us. Plus, have YOU eaten anything lately?"

"Well, no." She replied. I we t back to the fridge and found my food and gave it to her.

"Here. It's salad and potato soup. Eat it all if you want." I said.

"Wow thanks Dash!" Scootaloo said with a big smile. She dug into the salad right away as I warmed up her soup.

"Where did Twilight go anyway?" Scootaloo asked.

"Back to the Crystal Empire to see Cadence, Shining, and Spike." I replied.

~~~~

I started heading out to Dash's house, but Spike stopped me.

"What are you doing? You said we'd go if Luna WASN'T there. Well, she was. So let's go back to the Empire."

"You're right. I did say that. I need some time with you anyway." I replied.

"Can we go the the station early? I have to use the little dragon's room." Spike said eagerly.

"Sure... I guess." I said.  "I think I'm going to stay at The Crystal Empire for a lot longer than I planned for  three good reasons. One, well duh; Ponyville isn't Ponyville. Two, I need rest. My wings and hooves are killing me." I lifted my hooves higher to stretch them and make a point. I flinched at the pain when I moved my wings. "Flying straight  to Ponyville from the Empire is good exercise, but it has its consequences. And three, I just want some time alone." Spike looked at me. "Maybe I'll be with you all in a few days. I REALLY need some  alone time."  I paid for the train ride while Spike was using the restroom. I talked to the conductor until the he told everyone to sit down so we can leave. "All aBOARD!" He yelled. I told him goodbye and we got an and left for The Crystal Empire. I don't know about Spike, but I fell asleep during the entire ride.

It's All Fun And Games 'Till Discord is Sad.

After Rainbow Dash got Scootaloo's food ready, she wanted some for herself.

"Lessee. Chips and tuna, or chips and a sunflower sandwich?" She quietly asked herself.

"Do the tuna. Sounds better." Scootaloo said.

"Tuna it is. I guess." Dash got prepared and very melodramatically made her early evening Dinner. She ate it pretty fast, very soon after Scootaloo finished her salad and soup. And she had way more food than Rainbow.

~~~~

Back at the castle I napped for another three and a half hours. It was a great nap. I woke up to a lovely dinner of hay fries and leaf greens  with a berry salad. I had lovely conversations with my family when dinner started. The door knocked a few bites in.

"Oh that must be Photo Finish." Cadence exclaimed.

"Why are you having her for dinner?" I asked.

"I have a shoot with her in a few days so she wanted to get to know me more." She said as she completely reset the table. She even smoothed out the dips in our salads and spaces between our fries. She opened the

"door and I saw the  blue pony walk in.

"Photo Finish! Has arrived!" She exclaimed. Cadence led Photo to the dinner table and quickly made her up a plate. Se came back with a perfectly set plate. No food was touching the other, not a single leaf out of place. But, there was something else on it.

"I made you a special rose stack. It's a red rise petal with a few dandelion shreds, a pink petal, more dandelion, a dead pink petal, those are always good the right way as long as they are still a little soft. There is an orange petal and more dandelion then with final red petal to top it off." She said. Wow. That looked good. After Photo tried some and loved it, cadence brought her another one along with eight others for us. She placed two on each of our plates. When I tried it, it was delicious. I smiled at the taste and burped a little. I blushed. Then Photo burped louder.

"Oh we are doing that ehh?" Shining said. He burped louder and longer. Cadence then joined in with a small yet loud burp. I made a very loud and very long burp and everyone stared at me.

” 'Scuse me." I said shyly. Everyone burst into laughter. Including me. When Spike burped, he burnt a little bit of the table. We were busted laughing. We talked about the photo shoot with the new royal family, that means me and mom and dad too. I wanted my friends to be in there too but she said no. I finally talked her into letting them being at least background ponies. We finished our dinner with another burping contest. Surprisingly, Cadence won. With a total of six seconds and a burp that you can hear from the next room. I would know because I was IN the next room when I happened. I laughed very hard and came out. We thanked Photo for coming and she left with a thanks. I went back to the room with Spike.

"Why the hay were you so quiet there?" I asked him.

"Well, I was shy. And my dinner wasn't really... Suited for a dragon." He replied. I chuckled at his remark and got into bed.

"You are never shy, remember your birthday, "hey it's my birthday everyone give me stuff!!"' She mocked Spike from his birthday. "The dinner I understand though. In the other hoof, I need more sleep. Night night Spike Spike." I closed my eyes until I felt a soft hug and kiss on my cheek. Spike said goodnight back to me and went back to bed.

"I love you Twilight."

"I love you too Spike."

~~~~

While Scootaloo was fast asleep, Rainbow Dash was carefully sneaking out.

"What am I doing?" She whispered softly. "In on a cloud for pony's sake. She trotted out of her house and flew to Ponyville's remains. She saw Discord sitting lonelily on a rock there.

"So it was YOU!" She said, startling Discord and making him jump.

"What?! What did I do this time?" He said really truly clueless.

"This! You destroyed Ponyville!" She said poking him with a hoof.

"Would I have done this with my dear Screwball here? Huh?" He pointed down to a body. Dash scooted  closer because it was dark. She saw with little pink filly who looked alike of Diamond Tiarra, yet different. Especially the cutie mark. She was a pretty filly, but quite beat up. Her rib cage was dented while she had bruised and cuts all over her.

"She looked worse before I cleaned her off." He said shakily. Dash noticed that he looked like he was crying. She immediately put on a sympathetic face and said,

"So. You, didn't do this?"

"I thought we cleared that when I pointed." He said tearing up a little.

"Where were you when this happened?" She asked. Discord turned around and started looking at Screwball. I was in the forest. I saw some smoke and waited a while to go just to be sure that everyone evacuated, or they would've thought it was me. I knew they'd be evacuated because there was a lot of smoke. When I came, everything was destroyed. I looked further and saw bodies. I went to see if... Fluttershy was ok. I saw her in the rubble and had to pull her out some. I put her in a more peaceful position. I couldn't get her out all the way because I lost my strength to sadness. Yes, me. Discord, lord of chaos. Sad, terrified, an most of all, confused. Not even the OLD me would've gone this far. I wanted to scare ponies, not kill them. Please believe me, when I saw Screwball here, it went too far. I couldn't bear to look at any other body. I had just enough strength to clean her and bring her over here. I... I just... Can't take the pain of losing the two best and may I say, only friends I have ever had." He barely whispered his last sentences. Dash, for no reason, went to him and hugged him. He burst out into tears then and there.

"We'll if it helps, Twilight, Spike, and Scootaloo are still alive. Twi and Spike weren't there, but Scootaloo was, an I don't know how she lived." She said. Discord looked at Dash and smiled sadly then left.

Ditchin' Dashie

Whatever happened?

~~~~

It's been a while since I went over to Rainbow's, so I decided to pay her a visit to see if everything's fine. I told her she can come to the castle to live there, but she for some reason said no. I paid the conductor and went on my way. When I got to Dash's, it looked like no one was there. I flew up and knocked on the door. Scootaloo answered.

"Is Rainbow Dash here Scootaloo?" I Asked.

"No. She's at the forest." She replied. The forest?!

"Why is she there?" I asked, trying not to panic.

"I don't know. She's only been there about 20 minutes."

"Ok, have fun" I said. After Scootaloo closed the door, I flew at a racing pace to the forest. I found her sitting by a rock a the edge of the tree line.

"Rainbow! What are you doing here?" I asked.

"Discord. He- he's so sad. His favorite ponies-- his only two friends. Only to be discovered by him." She said without looking up. What was she talking about?

"Discord?"

Rainbow Dash pointed out a pinkish body. It was small so it was probably a filly. "That's Screwball. Discord's daughter. She got killed in the disaster. I felt so bad that- I actually hugged him." She turned around revealing a tear stained face. "I even liked it some. Then he smiled at me and left."

"Discord has a daughter?" I asked.

"Had, Twilight. Had a daughter." Rainbow said sternly. "He also said that Fluttershy looked like a wreck when he found her but he cleaned her some. I feel so bad for him. For-- them." She said sadly. I went up and leaned against her assuringly. She laid her head on my shoulder as we slowly slid down. She slowly fell asleep. I watched her as well as listened to her steady breathing. I must have fallen asleep too because when I woke up, I was in a different position, this one on my side with Rainbow hugging me on her side too. It looked like she was just starting to wake up when I saw her. She moaned restlessly and snuggled deeper into me. No; I have to get outta this. I'm not doing this again. I moved out of her grip only to be held again. I mumbled to myself. I bit her foreleg and she flinched just enough for me to escape. I flew away and went to the train station. Of course I felt guilty but, well, I do t like this. And if Shining Armor found out, oh if he found out; I'd be dead meat.  As I got to the station the conductor greeted me with a nod.

"My Princess, you sure are coming to Ponyville a lot. Why? There's certainly nothing to see is there?"

"Well Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo are still alive. Miraculously." I replied. I boarded the train and went back to the empire. I want to stay there for a while. I hope I can without Rainbow coming over. I just, need a break; just a little break. While I rode I talked to some of the passengers on the train. I told them as well why I was going to Ponyville so often now when they asked.  They were amazed at how they were alive and well. The train stopped and I got off and entered the castle. Instantly, I was greeted with Shining Armor and Spike.

"We were so worried!" Shining said. "Next time, tell me if your staying overnight. I was about to call the other guards over to look for you."

"No you weren't." I said, smirking. We all laughed and Spike have me a welcoming hug. I thought I'd stay here for a while. I think the both of us should stay with our families. I hope we can stay stable long enough.

Desisions, Desisions

she leaned closer nose to nose, interrupting my thoughts. She grazed my lips with hers. I felt myself shudder a little bit. She slowly, passionately kissed my cheek. I don't know what do do. She moved closer to my lips. Closer. Closer. Then, she got there. It wasn't like before. This was passionate. I let her kiss me but hardly returned the kiss. She started wrapping her hooves around me. She released and let me cuddle into her chest. This wasn't too bad. Maybe she's just stressed. And this is giving her crazy thoughts. Before I could answer my own question she kissed me again. She slowly opened her mouth only to close it again. She made this into a pattern. Open, close, open, close. I started to return the kiss. I felt vulnerable doing this. She opened again to reveal that she wasn't going to close. She started to insert her tongue into my mouth. I blushed vigorously, yet didn't refuse the romantic gesture. But it started to feel, good. I slowly entangled my tongue into hers, and within seconds we were making out on her couch, wubs occasionally scaring one or both of us. Once, I accidentally bit my tongue when a wub scared me. We had to take a break because we were laughing. Minutes went by slowly. I was enjoying this. But why? We broke the kiss after a while for a breather. We talked about how things were going lately, and of there were any clues. The only clue there was was a broken vile at Zecora's. after about 10 minutes of silence, she scooted closer to start kissing me. She grabbed my hoof about a minute in and dragged it to her marehood. I refused for a fraction of a second, but let it go. Why was I doing this? Should I be ashamed? Intrigued? Aroused? Afraid? I think I'm all of those things. After things with Flash Centry didn't work out I've been working alot. Which means I've been very stressed. This just- took everything away. I felt safe with her now. I started stroking her belly to her marehood again. Back and forth, back and forth. Rainbow groaned as I stopped suddenly, teasing her.

"This is nice right?" She with held the kiss.

"Yeah I guess." I replied. There was more awkward silences here and there, and then it just stopped. Time completely stopped.  About half an hour later Rainbow was on top of Twilight. They were making out and it was just wonderful. It felt so great. She started to rock back and forth. Adding pressure and taking some off to add drama. I groaned slightly. It felt so good I just- OH I gasped. This has never happened before. My world was interrupted by great bliss. I was supposed to be back by sunset. I took a glance outside to see that I had around 45 minutes left. Great. I don't wanna stop now. She started grinding harder and harder. I started to moan softly. Rainbow Dash was breathing quite hard too. OH. It felt so great OH. Grinding harder and harder on my mare parts was so heavenly. Harder. Harder. "AHH" I shrieked. I blushed hard. She didn't seem to mind.

Swap-out

I'll do it. I'll move in with her. I just-- have to break it down to everyone. OH MY GOSH! Can Spike come? I have to ask. I finished packing my bags and left without them to tell my family. "Guys? Can I talk to you?" I said quietly.

"Sure Twily. You an tell us anything!" Shining said cheerfully. "I-is something wrong?" Suddenly scared looking.

"No- well kinda. I'm. I'm gonna move in with Rainbow Dash. I heard a gasp from, well, everyone. Spike came over and asked,

"Can I come with you at least?"

"I don't know. I will be sure to ask. If anything ill let you come any day and I'll visit a lot." I said. "I have all my stuff packed already. I just, have to go."

"Why are you moving there?" Cadence asked. I glanced around nervously. No. I will not tell that I am in a relationship with her yet. Well come to think of it, are we in a relationship?

"I don't know. She's just really stressed and she needs a flying buddy." I told the truth, just skipping a major part of it. They nodded. They agreed and were sad when I left. I took spike with me as Cadence gave me 1,300 bits for shopping and train rides. I had to use it wisely. I got to the station as Spike told me he wasn't coming with me. "Why?" I asked.

"We'll you can come get me if I can come, because you don't even know if I CAN come so--" he stopped. I have him a hug and kissed his forehead. I got into the train as people greeted me. I got to Rainbow Dash's later on and knocked on the door. She opened it and tackle hugged me.

"AWWE YEAH YOU'RE STAYING!!" She yelled. She welcomed me in. Scootaloo wants to move somewhere else where there's fillies to play with. She's been thinkin' real hard."

"The castle in the Crystal Empire has fillies. Maybe her and Spike can be buddies and they can find other friends." I shrugged.

"You're leaving Spike?"

"I don't know. Do you want me to?"

"Well, kinda?" She said.

"Then I will." I said a little doubtfully. She hugged me then turned even more serious.

"Do you- do you wanna be my special somepony Twilight?" I blushed again. I looked for the right words to say when I finally said,

"Yes." She whooped and did a backflip in the air and kissed me I her way down. I fell in the process, bringing her down too. We burst up laughing on the floor. I caught a bit out orange outta the corner of my eye. SCOOTALOO! I sat up suddenly and stared at her, her jaw agape. "Uhhhm get there." I said awkwardly. Dash sat up too and was shocked.

"Umm, so Twi here said that you can nicer to the Crystal Empire castle. You wanna? You can roommate with Spike." She awkwardly smiled. Scootaloo just nodded her head without speaking or blinking. She backed up slowly into the other room and grabbed a few bags.

"When do I leave?" She said. I have her some bits for the ride and wrote down a letter for Cadence and the others. She left immediately.

"Well. Now we have the whole place for ourselves." Rainbow raised her eyebrows a few times. "So." She said after we sat down. "Have you told your folks yet?"

"No." I replied. I started to lean into her chest. It was so comfy. She put her fore-leg around my neck and kissed my head. "No, stop." I stopped her. "Just cuddles." She nodded. We listened to some hard rock on the radio for a while, then we got hungry. We decided to eat the food here for future "emergencies". I had some noodles and she ate an apple and some carrots. After that, we shared some sweet lilies. Somehow, a petal got stuck on my nose, and Rainbow Dash licked it off. It was nice being here with her. I just hope this was the right decision. Rainbow shifted and Twilight let her lay her head on her lap. Words weren't needed. We just had each other. We fell asleep after awhile. I woke up later with me leaning on we chest again and I hugged her tightly and fell asleep again. Do I really like her? I think I do. I think I love her. We woke up at the early hours of dawn to a knock at the door.

"Wha?" I exclaimed. Dashie opened the door to reveal discord. "Discord?" I asked.

"Yeah, yeah, what am I doing here blah blah. Listen. I just wanted to know if you'll be, coming to my-- service. For you know Fluttershy and Screwball." He sniffed. "It'll be in 2 days at about noon. "

"Uhh sure." I said. Rainbow agreed. "Can we do the others too?" I asked. He nodded. I offered him a drink of water o his way out and he didn't refuse. He took the glass too, only for it to appear on my head later. Which was pretty funny. That day didn't consist of much words, just cuddles and a few kisses. We fell asleep after a dinner of leftover carrots and apples and a few olives. It was calm. I was so surprised of how sad discord had been. I hope he'll be alright.  The next day was more drawn out. We had alot of "sessions" throughout the morning. I was cooking lunch by then. After we ate, we went outside to fly.

"AHH THANK GOSH!" Rainbow stretched. "I needed to come and stretch my wings." She looked at me. "You look so good in the light." She teased. I blushed. I flew up unsteadily, just as her, our wings stuff from being inside for days on days. She grasped my hooves within hers so we could stay steady. We were just kinda rotating for a sec when she leaned in to kiss me. Then we separated and flew some. We raced, and she won all of them, we dove for flowers, and I caught the most, and we just flew around, avoiding the area of Ponyville with the most bodies. It was a great day. When we went back in, we sat on the couch, just talking. She leaned in for a kiss and I accepted. We just sat there like that for a while and then talked more. We actually went out for dinner in Canterlot, also buying food to eat at home.

So Far So Good

I greeted the guards as I walked into Luna's castle. I asked how she was doing and all they did was shake their heads and put them down. She is taking this harder than anyone. I knocked on her door a few times and a moment later she walked to it and invited me in. She seemed less depressed that the other day, but still miserable. I lit the little candle on her bedside with a spark from my horn. I offered again to take over the sun. She refused. Though it was getting better, the nights were very long, and the days were short. She needed a buddy. Someone to keep her company. I couldn't keep coming down like this. I'm wasting so many bits. Not to say I bought her a little present. It was a nice picture frame with yellow, white, green, pink, an baby blue jewels. It was made customary for Celestia's picture. It cost me about 47 bits. She loved it. She grabbed a picture of her and put it there immediately. I bowed a little bit in respect then left. I went out for a walk to see of anyone- just anyone was here from Ponyville while the disaster was happening. I recognized used no one from Ponyville. I decided to pay an old friend a visit. She moved I with somepony a while ago. I went up to the door and knocked softly. I heard muffled talking in there.

"You get it."

"Mmm no you"

"Go nowwww."

"No-- WOAH-- fine." A pale pony with purple glasses and a blue mane answered the door. Where did I recognize her from? OH she was the DJ from my brothers wedding. Oh what's her name?- Vinyl Scratch!

"Umm hi is--"

"Twilight?!" I heard. I heard some scrambling then a pony walking to the door.

"Hey Octavia. I was just visiting. Wow. Surprised your rooming with her. Your music soft and lovely and hers all loud and wubby." She invited me in.

"What brings you here?" She asked. Well I wanted a visit baca use I'm still stressed about what happened in Ponyville."

"Awwe yeah. Lyra and Bon Bon were in that huh?" Vinyl pointed out. "They were so perfect together."

"Pardon?" I asked.

"They were a couple. Like me and her." She replied, giving her partner a peck on the cheek. Woah. WHAT?! "Did they at least die together?"

"Yeah. I found them hugging each other when I walked around. I was at the Empire when this happened. I just wish I could have stopped this. It killed Princess Celestia." I frowned. Octavia gave me a small hug to reassure me. I thanked her and we talked a little bit. After a while, I decided to leave. Rainbow was probably waiting.

"We'll I gotta go. Rainbow is probably waiting for me with dinner."

"Wait. Are. You two a couple?" Vinyl Scratch asked" I blushed and nodded. They both "awwwwwwwed"at me making me blush harder. "We should all have lunch together." She suggested. I agreed and left. I paid the conductor my bits and got back to Ponyville. And of course there was Dashie, with dinner. She welcomed me home and we ate some pasta and garlic with a side of hay fries and baby carrots. Then we snuggled some more. It was my turn. I leaned my head down as she was resting hers on my lap, and I kissed her. I leaned back up, as we both agreed to brush out teeth. Then it was back to the couch. I kissed her again and did not let go of her.

"This hurts." I said. "Can we like, reposition or something?" She nodded and sat up and we resumed. I was so into it when she lay down over me again. She twiddled with my mane as I did with her. I then stuck my tongue into her mouth a little, her returning the favor. I didn't push in my tongue too far until I was more comfortable with I new mouth for my tongue. Why was she comfortable with all this? Has she done this before? Mare or stallion? She lifted  her body just a little, and put her weight back in me, interrupting my thoughts. I started to sit up slowly again, like the last time, only I was going to stay like that, with her. She let me sit up, not separating me from her. Then there was another knock on the door. Who now? I wondered. I walked to the door, fixing my mane a little. I opened it and saw Princess Luna. I gasped. I used my magic to summon a brush to fix Dashie's mane too. The. She walked up.

"Princess what are you doing here?"

"I well. I wanted to thank you properly for what you have done to help me. Maybe you can help me With the sun every few days. I just, am very sad lately. Is-- is this how my sister felt when she sent me to the moon?" She wondered. I invited her in for a drink and a snack. "Did I awaken you, we're you sleeping?" She asked. Me and Dash said yes rather than tell her what was really happening. She apologized and after some cheese and crackers, she went on her way, thanking us for the food. Dash and I just cuddled then. My head on her chest. I looked up to see her look down. She leaned down to give me a small kiss on the cheek.

"Y'know? I like this. Just you and me. It's... Nice." She said. I smiled at her and said nothing. May this IS her true feelings. I don't know. We fell asleep a while after the sun went down, and woke up at dawn.

Pinkie Pie

When we settled on the couch, I leaned my head into her chest. That's pretty much all it was now. Eat, sleep, cuddle, and talk. She leaded down and kissed my ear. I smiled. She kissed my horn, kinda hard too. I yipped at the sudden sensation. And of course she laughed.

"So you wanna do that huh?" I challenged. I grabbed her wings on both my hooves and rubbed hard. She yelped. I laughed harder. Her wings flew up, one smacking me in the face. She then used her hoof to lift my head up and kissed me passionately. I returned the kiss. She leaned down on me, laying me down onto the couch. She continued kissing me. After about a minute I sat up to calm down. She broke hold of me for a good five minutes to only lock her lips to mine again. Oh well. This time I lay down on her. She tried to enter her tongue into mine until I backed away.

"Mm-mm." I said. She grunted like a filly but continued. Why was I in love with a criminal? I wondered. I rubbed her wing up and down while she groaned. I was only trying to tire her out though. She rubbed my horn. I yipped again. Great now I was into it. *gasp* she kept her gentle touch but stroked faster. *gasp*  Wait... What was I thinking about?

"Now you're in to it." She said. She started rubbing her hoof up and down the side of my body, sending chills up my spine. I gripped her wing with my hooves tightly. She gasped in pain and pleasure. Her strokes started getting smaller as she got lower. She got to my cutie mark and rubbed it for a moment before sending her hoof down to explore my mare parts. I gasped, gripping her wing tightly once again. I started mocking her my rubbing we body too. She made a slight gasp and put more pressure on me.

"Oh Rainbow!" I yelled. She kept rubbing. I started to rub her cutie marks. They were so soft, softer than the rest of her body. Were mine that way too? *gasp* She rubbed her hoof over my opening. She isn't. She-she can't. *gasp* She applied more pressure on it. Rubbing harder and harder on each stroke, but no faster. She let all of her pressure go after a while, and just let her hoof barely touch me. She started to stroke my body again and then started to kiss me. Whew. That was close. She again stuck her tongue inside my mouth again, but this time I didn't stop her, but I didn't encourage it either. I closed my eyes to let the feeling spread more. She IS a pretty good kisser, I'll admit that. She took her tongue out of my mouth and resumed kissing me. Soon we kinda died down and stopped. That's more like it. We just at there for a while. We were sitting on opposite side of the couch then, but I moved closer to cuddle. Out of nowhere I said.

"I love you Rainbow Dash."

"I love you too." She kissed my ear. At some point I fell asleep in her hold, but later, when the sun was already setting, I was laying on the couch alone with a blanket over me. I looked over and saw Rainbow in the kitchen cooking supper.

"What are we having?" I asked.

"Noodles with tomatoes." She said.

"Sun dried?" I asked.

"Yeah." I nodded in approval. I stayed there on the couch until supper was ready.

"MMM." I said. "It's delicious."

"Thanks." She replied. We finished eating and she followed me outside so we can go for a fly. I wonder how Spike's doing. We flew up into the air and I actually didn't need her help this time! I was proud. We flew around for around 25 minutes then went back inside.  We got ready to see Pinkie Pie again. As we got to Canterlot, we were wondering how Pinkie will be. We enters the hospital and went to Pinkie's room. The nurse was in there frowning. My heart froze.

"She got a major infection." She explained. "It's in her stomach. She-- she may not make it." She lowered her head." We walked over to the bed. "She's in a shock induced coma." The nurse said. "I'm sorry." She left. Then, the doctor walked in.

"Hello girls! Care to go to the other side of the bed so I can inspect her properly?" He asked politely. We moved. He used his tools and murmured to himself. Then he said, "Pinkie Pie isn't too well. The infection is starting to take over her lungs, and soon it will take over her heart. I'd say she will be in a coma for a month when her organs will fail. I-- I honestly suggest to take her off of life support soon. It would be best." I nodded. I pulled Dash aside to talk about it. She agreed to do it. The both of us agreed to not let her suffer anymore. We went back to the bed and told the doctor. He nodded and grabbed the plug. "Are you sure?" He asked. We both nodded. He pulled the plug and the heart minister started to beep faster. After about a minutes the flatline appeared. The doctor left us to say our goodbyes. It was a silent goodbye. We saw no need to talk. You will always be our party pony. I thought. Soon, doctors came in with the body bag. We let them do their work. We left after a while. When we got back, we didn't speak for a long time. We didn't eat anything either. It's was a silent night.

There Will Be Discord

A few days went by after Pinkie's death, and it's been pretty awkward. He tension was high though. Rainbow Dash was giving me that "look" again. We were on opposite sides of the couch again again. I rubbed my foreleg with the other hoof. She scooted over. She was right on me now. She kissed my neck lovingly. I tilted my head to make it easier. For a minute or so, she was licking and kissing my neck. I shifted my own head to kiss her neck now. She let me do so. Apparently I hit a sweet spot because she stuck her tongue out and moaned. I slowly moved my lips towards hers. She turned her head so they would reach sooner. I grinned mischievously as my lips passed hers and kissed her forehead. I could feel that she wanted this. I ran my hoof slowly up and down her side. Her fur stood on end as I did so. I went back down to her lips. I stuck my tongue into her mouth, feeling the newer, wetter feeling. I moved my hoof down to her cutie marks. She gasped in delight. I resumed kissing her while she moved so that I was on top of her. Her wings were at their full extent as mine were out too. We had twisted our tails together, a purple, pink, and rainbow mess. Their bangs were in each other's faces as well. I moved my hoof closer to her opening, as she gasped. She threw back her head and groaned. I stopped kissing her lips and started to move down. I was kissing her chest. I got lower and lower until my face was at her bottom. I paused for a moment, teasing the eager Rainbow Dash. A few seconds later, I plunged in. She practically screamed as I did so. I licked all around, all except her opening. I slowly moved towards it though. As I finally got to it, the hot, oozing, swollen red area beckoned me. Instead, I was in control. I swiped my tongue up quickly, dodging the hole.

"Don't be too quick." I said. She made a little annoyed/amused yelp in response. I licked her tummy, feeling chills on the both of us. I slowly rose back up, kissing her neck for a long while, then kissing her lips. When all the adrenalin was gone, we just kind of exchanged nips and pecks to each other. With the both of us wore out, we slept, still me on top of her. It was a very nice, long sleep. A very deep sleep as well. I woke later one but stayed in position. I thought about a few hours ago. She's so soft, I though. She- she tasted like spice. Well, Pinkie Pie DID find out that rainbows are spicy right? I giggled softly. A little while later Dashie started to stir around. She woke up and instantly greeted me with the "sexy eyes". I greeted her back by rolling off of her and walking to the kitchen. I looked back and she looked somewhat takes back. I turned my head back around and flicked my tail. I made pancakes for us with some maple leaves as a side. We went for another fly to stretch out and talk.

"I think I'm getting the hang of this!" I said letting go of Dash.

"Hay yeah you are!" She replied. I flew around, but my wings suddenly tensed up, and I fell into the forest. Rainbow couldn't find me for a few minutes but she finally did. Suddenly a ruckus came from behind. It was Discord of course.

"I found out about Pinkie." He said sadly. We lowered our heads to remember her. We invited Discord over to eat lunch with us. My wings were still tensed so Dashie had to carry me. "So, word on the street is that you guys are, welllll, how do you say it, fillyfriends?" He said matter-of-factly.

"How did you figure that?!" Rainbow asked.

"Well, you've Living her a while." He said to me. "And well sometimes when I'm walking around, I hear some...Noises." He looked at me, who was blushing. I got up to save an awkward moment and got some water for us.

"Hey, does anyone have apple juice?" Discord asked.

"Ummm, we have apple wine." I replied.

"Wine? Doesn't that get you drunk?" He asked.

"We'll kinda, but it's more of a loopy phase." I replied.

"I'll take some." He said. I pours some in a little glass for him and sat down. He took a sip and puckered his lips at the flavor. Then he took a huge gulp. Soon he had no more left. "More please?" He asked.

"Umm no." I said, not wanting him to get too drunk. We talked for a while about different things one leading to another, and something got us talking about parents.

"Well my parents were awesome! My dad taught me to fly, and my mom encourage it!" Dash said.

"My parents were pretty cool too." I said. "They let me study and didn't mind that I did it too much. They were just a calm family, like me-- well, most of the time." We all giggled.

"So, Discord,what the hay did your parents look like?" Rainbow asked him.

"Well, I really don't remember." He replied sadly. "My mom died when I was a baby and my dad left me when I was six. My dad was kinda a blueish color, that's all I remember. I wasn't lying when I said 'Fluttershy and Screwball were the only ones I had.'" There was an awkward silence after that. We talked a little bit more and then he left, leaving me and Rainbow alone. And already, she was giving me her look.

"Aww come on, you can't even wait five minutes?" I asked jokingly annoyed.

"Well, I want to return the favor from last night." She smirked.

"Well at least give me a few minutes." I said to her and walked out of the room. When I came back, she was sitting eagerly on the couch. I walked up to her and sat down beside her. Then, she leaned in.

"HAHAAAH I KNEW IT!!!" A voice said from outside.

"Discord!!" We both said.

"Hey, I needed to find out." We glared at him. "Fine, fine I'll leave now." And he did so. Rainbow leaned in again, this time, not stopping for any interruptions.

An Investigation In Hoof

As she leaned closer to kiss me, I felt the excitement. She reached my lips and kissed them affectionately. We made out for a good while, when she started to kiss me neck. Soon she was lowering her kisses and licks to my chest, then my tummy. Then she reached my cutie marks. "I gasped silently as she did. She leaned over me. Forcing me down and climbed on top of me. She then kissed my lips again and grinded herself over me. I let myself fall into her rhythm. Soon enough, she was moving back down. She got closer and closer to my dripping mare parts. Both of our wings were out as far as they could be. As she reached her destination, I made a little gasp. She licked furiously around my clit. After a few seconds, she started to make larger and longer strokes with her tongue, which felt much better. She licked around, sucking at some points, greedily slurping up all of the juices that left me. She got closer to my opening. I was suspecting her to do what I did to her and leave it, but she didn't. She let her tongue roam on and around it. After a minute, she plunged we tongue inside. I made a little gasp at the sudden movement.

"Oh-- r-Rainbow... I.. I want.. To make.. This... The best.. Day- of your... Life." I said between gasps.

"Mmm, it already is." She said. She resumed licking up all my juices. I was coming close to a climax. As I did, Rainbow let her nose be covered in the fluid that came out, and licked up as much as she can. Suddenly, a knock came at the door. She licked up the last of the fluids from my wet, swollen, red parts and I answered the door. It was a guard.

"Y-yes?" I answered.

"Princess Twilight, what are you doing here?" The guard asked.

"I live her now. Is there something I can do?" I asked.

"I was just seeing if whoever lives here knows anything about the... Disaster." He said.

"Rainbow said all she knows is that it most likely started at Zecora's cottage, because the damage is worst there." I said, trying my hardest and succeeding at not sounding suspicious.

"Alright." He said. "We will come back later for further investigation." He said.

"Ok, thanks for coming by Blade Wing!" I answered cheerfully. I went back into the couch and told Dash what had happened. She shrugged it off and leaned me back again.

"Now, where were we?" She kissed the inside of my thighs and soon enough we were at it again. A few minutes later she pulled me back up. "My turn." She said. I pushed her back and kissed her hard. I kissed her neck and chest and neck again. I moved my head down to her parts and lucked around them. I got to her dripping mare hole, and tasted the spicy flavor again. This time, I went straight for her hole. She was gasping in delight and I licked in, on, and around her hole, drinking up all of her cum. I stopped or a moment and rubbed her area. She moaned and grinded against my hoof. I rubbed harder and faster and stopped to lick her again. She started to climax as well. She orgasmed and not a single drop ended up not in my mouth. I stuck my tongue inside her hole and licked the walls of her mare parts. After a moment, I got an idea. I stuck my entire snout in there. She made a little yelp as I came back out to breath. I went straight back in there. I pulled out and started mucking again. She made a stroke on my wing. I shivered an gasped at the feeling. She rubbed harder now, and we let ourselves roam free. As we both and go another orgasm, it all spilled out at the same time, and I collapsed my was on her stomach, and we both gasped for air. Almost instantly when we stopped, the knocking came again.

"Wait." Rainbow said. "Who IS it??" She asked loudly. It's Blade Wing and a couple others." I caught my breath and dried off as u went to the door. I opened it. My stomach churned at what I saw. Blade Wing, Sword Shine... And Shining Armor! I invited them in.

"We are just here to ask about the Unsuspected Wind, as we all it, Twilight." Shining said. I nodded. Rainbow must have known what was going on in my mind as she yelped and ran to the bathroom. I ran after her as did the guards. I went in the bathroom she went in and asked we what's wrong.

"Listen. It's either I talk, or you don't sweat, stutter, look at me often, look away often, pace back and forth, or bite your lip." She said.

"Everything alright?" Sword Shine asked.

"Yeah!" I said. You talk." I whispered to Dash. She nodded. We exited the bathroom.

"What was wrong?" Blade Wing asked.

"Just a little stomach ache." Rainbow said.

"Do you need pain killers?"

"No I'll be fine."

"So we know Princess Twilight Sparkle was doing royal duty in the Crystal Empire that night, but what about you Rainbow Dash?"

"Well I was here. I heard the rumbling and screaming and went out. I saw it dust cloud and Scootaloo on her scooter running from it. I grabbed her and watched the rest go down. There was nothing I could do to save the others." The guards got up and asked us to do so. We did and they checked us over. Shining for me, and the others got Dash. He looked me up and down, side to side, over and under.

"Umm. General Armor?" One of the guards asked.

"Yes Lieutenant General Shine?" He replied.

"May we speak?" They all went to a corner and talked.

"She's wet." Sword Shine spoke.

"As in water wet?" Shining Armor asked.

"No as in wet wet." Shining cocked his head.

"She's wet down there." Blade Wing hissed. "You don't think?"

"No. No. Twilight wasn't wet. I think. I'll. I'll check again." They resumed their check-overs. I heard Shining gasp for some reason, but didn't question him. He looked over to the others and nodded.

"Are you two- in a relationship?" Blade Wing asked. OH NO! Rainbow didn't dry off! And in not dry completely!

"Twilight?" Shining Armor asked.

Cadence Accepts

"Umm. Um." I replied.

     "Well Twilight?" Shining asked. "Answer me! Are you two fillyfriends?"

I was too stunned to talk.

     "Yes, we are." Rainbow said.

     "I wasn't talking to you, Rainbow Dash!" He exclaimed. He's never yelled like that before.      "Answer me!" Tears welling in his eyes.

     "Yes." I quietly said.

     "What?"

     "Yes! We are! We're dating."

     "H-how long, Twily?" Shining Armor asked.

     "A-a day before I moved in with her." I said.

     "Why didn't you just tell me?"

     "I thought you'd be mad."

     "Well you thought right." He said, obviously hurt. I walked up to him to nuzzle his shoulder. He turned away. "Come one guys, let's go." He said.

     "Well, that went well." Rainbow said. I shot her an angry look. She shrunk back.

     "I can't believe this happened. Especially like this." I said sadly. Rainbow came to hug me but I moved away. I needed to talk to him. I ran out the door, knowing he was investigating the rubble. I flew around until I saw him searching alone. Good. I landed hard on the ground to make him hear me. He stood in his place and didn't move.

     "Shining Armo--" I started.

     "I don't want to talk to you." That broke my heart.

     "Please, just let me explain."

     "Explain what Twilight?! That you're a filly fooler?" He yelled. I stared at him with wide, scared, hurt eyes. His expression stayed hard.

     "How is that even a big deal? So what, I have to like someone just because they have different body parts than me? Didn't you say that no matter who I love, you will love too? That you will never hate me for loving someone? What happened to that?" I pleaded desperately. His expression softened a little bit.

     "Why didn't you tell me when you moved though?" Shining asked.

     "I don't know. Like I said. I knew you'd be mad at me. I was going to tell you, I promise! I just didn't want it to be this way."

     "Twilight, you guys were wet! Were you?" He said.      "Were you guys really..."

     "Yes. We-- we were." I knew what he was talking about. "We were filly fooling. I'm sorry."

     "I guess you don't have to be sorry. It's not bad for mates to mess around every once in a while." He's said. He didn't know we did it a lot. "Cadence and I do it too, not to put the thought in your head."  I laughed a little and blushed at his remark.

     "So you're not still mad?" I asked him.

     "No. I guess not." Well, that's one secret of Dash revealed. Except the other one is way worse and will get her executed. He CAN'T find out.  I flew back to the house to see Rainbow Dash.

     "So how'd it go?" She asked when I got in.

     "Alright. He's fine with it now, kinda." I replied.

     "Awesome!!" She yelled. "Now we can--" she started to say.

     "No." I said firmly.

     "Wait. What?"

     "Shining said its ok to fool around every once in a while. We did it everyday. No more for a while." I said.

     "Awwww!" She said back. I glared at her. "At least a kiss?" She pleaded. I sighed and walked toward her. I leaned in and kissed her. A few seconds later I pulled back and walked away.

     "How long?" Rainbow questioned.

     "What?" I asked.

     "How long is a while?"

     "At least a week. Maybe a week and a half." I replied.

     "Well, that's not too bad." She said. "I love you."

     I blushed. "I love you too." I kissed her forehead.

    The day had gone as well as night. The next day has come as I woke up. Dash was already cooking breakfast. "We have to go shopping later." I said.

     "Ok." She replied. After breakfast we got ready to go. I grabbed a thousand bits just in case we needed it all. We got onto the train and went to the Crystal Empire to also see Cadence, Spike, and Shining Armor. I wonder if he told the rest. Or Scootaloo gave it away as well. When we got to the empire, we went to the castle first. The guards let us in and I went towards the living area. There, everyone was in the living room listening to the radio and talking.

     "Yeah and-- oh hey Twilight. Hey Rainbow Dash.!" Cadence said.

     "What are you doing here?" She asked.

     "Just visiting." I replied.

     "Oh. Shining Armor told us." She said quietly.

     "I figured he would." I replied. Spike came up to see me.

     "Mehh. I still don't see it. Why are you guys dating anyways?" He asked.

     "Why hello to you too Spike." I said. "I don't know. We just... Are."

     "Oh." Spike said. Then Scootaloo came up to us.

     "Yeah, I remember when I walked in on you two a few times having some fun." She said. I blushed.

     "A FEW times?" Shining asked. "How much have you done it?"

     "Well, I don't know. A-a lot?" I said doubtfully. Shining sighed.

     "Ugh, Twilie, I don't know what to do with you."

     "Well if I have a say, I think you two look very adorable together." Cadence said.

     "You do?" Everyone said.

     "Yes! I hoped you two would date from the first few days I met you, Rainbow Dash." She said.

    "Um. Wow." Rainbow Dash said.

     We left and did our shopping. We got back around lunchtime. We ate and listened to the radio.

                       *****

     For a few days, some workponies have been removing rubble from Ponyville to make new buildings. They worked away from us to not bother us. We went out for a fly to work out our wings. I looked at Rainbow Dash in the sunlight. The beautiful blue mare with the rainbow mane and tail was flying around slowly. The Pegasus flew up to me a few seconds later.

     "Why are they doing this anyways?" She asked. "I don't think many ponies are gonna come live here. And even if they would, they still won't cause they're scared, probably." I shrugged at her question.

     "Come on, let's just fly around." I said. "Race you to that tree over there!" I yelled dashing away. She, of course, passed me and made me twirl around in mid air. She suddenly came back, taking me with her.

     "Hey what's going on?!" I asked.

     "That tree was never there before!" She said. "And it reeks and I saw something move! Something... That was not a tree animal." She whispered.

     "What do you mean?" I asked her.

"It was the size of a HUGE stallion and it had red eyes and a black suit on!" She replied. "Come on. We have to warn those guys in Ponyville's remains.

The Monster

     We headed to the destroyed town of Ponyville to warn the work ponies. It took us a few minutes to find them, but we did.

     "Everypony, we need to leave now." I said.

     "But why Princess Twilight?" One of the ponies asked.

     "Listen," Rainbow Dash said. "There's something in a tree over there. The tree was never there. And the thing inside it has pure red eyes and a black suit. I have a bad feeling about it."

     "But--" another started.

     "No. No buts. You need to go now. And that's an order." I said sternly.

     "Y-yes, Princess. As you wish."

     "Good. Now where are you guys staying? I'll come get you when the coast is clear." I asked.

     "We'll be in Appleoosa." One of the stallions sighed. They gathered up their tools and left.

     My head was spinning as the depression of the town being destroyed kicked in. We are postponing the chance of the town being redeemed right now. Our friends are dead, and now there's a mysterious tree by Dashie's house. I felt like going to my brother and crying on his lap. But obviously there was no time for that then. No, we had to kick a tree out of town.

     "Let's go look at that tree now." Rainbow Dash said.

     We flew towards the tree that Rainbow saw cautiously. When we got there, she stopped abruptly. She pushed me back some,then flew forward a bit. She softly shook a branch. *thistle thistle*.  Waiting. *THISTLE THISTLE* a louder shaking came from the inside of the tree.

     "What?" Rainbow asked. She shook the tree again. *thistle thistle*. Waiting.

     *THISTLE THISTLE* "Get out!" A deep voice yelled.

     "How can I get out if I'm not even in?" Rainbow sarcastically asked.

     "Get! Away!" It shouted.

     "First, tell me who you are."

     "You can't make me do anything." It said.

     "Nor can you. So why are you trying to make me leave?" She asked.

     "Because you don't belong here!"

     "I don't belong here?!" She emphasized the word "I."

     "No! You don't!" Its deep voice turning into an annoyed growl.

     "Ugh. I never thought that a tree could be so obnoxious. Or annoying." Rainbow said.

     "That's it!" The figure yelled, then jumped out unexpectedly, right onto Rainbow Dash. She yelped and tried to squirm out of the black figures grip. Now that it was in light, I could see it. It had a dark black cloak, large bold red eyes, with no white or black, and... Very sharp teeth making their way towards Rainbow's neck! I lunged at the large strong figure and knocked it, as well as it's breath out. Dash suddenly grabbed me and pulled me up into the sky. Out of nowhere, the figure grew wings and did as well.

     "Really?!" Rainbow scoffed. "What are you?"

     "I can't tell you." It said. The tension in the air lessened.

     "Why?" I broke in and asked.

     "I just can't."

     "You can. Please tell us. We won't hurt you, we promise." I shot my head at Rainbow Dash and said, "Right, Rainbow?"

     "Yeah, we won't hurt you." She agreed as we flew downwards to the ground.

     "I am," the figure said as it pulled its hoof up to take the hood off of its cloak. I caught a glimpse of a black and white stripe. "Zecora." She whipped the cloak off and her normal voice was used. Her teeth retracted and wings disappeared. Her eyes went back to normal. The size of her body lessened some, but, because she was a large zebra, she didn't shrink much. She dug in her cloak until she found a pocket on the inside and pulled a small bottle out. She dropped it and smashed it to the ground, causing the glass to shatter and the blue liquid to leak out.

     "Z-Zecora?" Rainbow asked shocked. "I thought I killed you."

     "I did too, little mare, but I was in a coma. Ask questions of you dare." She said as her rhymes started coming back to her.

     "Then how are you--?" Rainbow asked as she cut herself off.

     "When I awoke from my snooze, I found myself all cut and bruised." She explained. I knew what happened, Rainbow Dash, even though my head had a huge gash. I know that it was not you who did this. What it really was, was a creature from the forest. The creature scared me while I was pouring the potion called dosarown. So the result made an explosion destroying the town." She finished.

     "So... It wasn't my fault?" Rainbow Dash repeated.

     The frail zebra shook her head. "But" she started. "You do need to leave. The creature that scared me is on the weave. It is large. It is scary. And it is actually quite hairy. But that is not the point, you soon will have learned. The creature is but one of a large herd."

     "How large is it, Zecora?" I asked.

     "It is very large, if my mind is correctly processed. Maybe about the height of two stacked princesses." She answered. Just then, a growl churned from all around us. Our eyes turned to pinpricks as we stared into the forest.

     "Zecora?" I asked fearfully, not taking me eyes off of the trees.

     "Yes, princess?" She replied.

     "Is that the creature?"

     "It is." She answered, not bothering to rhyme. We all backed up slowly in sync as three pairs of yellow eyes pop out one by one. They just stood there growling at us. One jumped out as as soon as that happened, Rainbow Dash grabbed Zecora and flew upwards, as did I. The other two came out too, and they had a powerful jump, so we had to fly higher. We couldn't seek shelter in Rainbow's house because the wolf-like creatures could jump that high. Instead, we we're stuck in high altitudes flying towards a safer place. We weren't really worried because we had one advantage: we (except Zecora) could fly. We took turns passing her to me and back to her. A good hour later, the wolves have up and went back, but we kept flying until we reached Canterlot. As soon as we landed and Zecora got off my back, I went to the castle and told Luna.

     "And that's-- when we-- came-- over here." I finished my story in between gasps for air.

     Luna rang a large bell as a swarm of guards entered the room. "Set up the royal guard line around the border." She ordered the guards nodded and galloped away. I stood in dismay as Luna becomes me to leave with her. I slowly walked out of the room, thinking about what's gonna happen next.

Prologue: The Letter

So here I am. Twilight Sparkle. In front of everyone's graves. Even princess Celestia's. Who would've thought she'd be gone so soon. In order it was Aloe, Apple Bloom, Apple Jack, Berry Punch, Big Mac, Bon Bon, Cheerilee, Derpy Hooves, Dr. Whooves, Featherweight, Fluttershy, Granny Smith, Lyra, Lotus Blossom, Mayor Mare, Mr. and Mrs. Cake, Octavia, Pinkie Pie, Pound Cake, Pumpkin Cake , Rarity, Snails, Snips, Vinyl Scratch, and even Zecora. It's been five years since everyone had passed. I didn't know what happened at the time. I had no idea who's fault it was. And I was determined to fined out. I just wish I could undo the Disaster. I was at the Crystal Empire with Spike at the time when I got the letter from Princess Luna.

~~~~

" Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

Please come to Ponyville immediately. There has been a terrible accident. I fear that my sister is in there too. I know you have your duties, but no one is to be seen alive. And the ones that are, well, just hurry.

Princess Luna." My heart sank at the thought of all my friends being in that accident.

Getting Information

There at Dash's she described the tragedy. Scootaloo said that her scooter made her fly off away from the dust, but her wings saved her with what little power she had. That was the first time she really flew. We had some tea and went off to look for Celestia. I had told spike to stay with Cadence. Oh how I wish I could talk to him. We looked just about everywhere except Zecora's. We went towards the Everfree Forest. When we got to Zecora's tree, we saw Celestia.

"Wh-What? What is she doing here?!"

I couldn't help it. I blew it.

"Who the heck did all this and for what purpose?! Why is Celestia HERE?! Out of all the places she could be, she's here?!" I started crying and collapsed. "Where is Zecora?!" I started flinging debris. I found the half-broken zebra. I didn't mean to, but I accidentally pushed Dash and flew up. She went after me to calm me down. She grabbed me with her forelegs. "Wait. Twi. Look you see that? The worst damage is here. It looks like there was a fire. Wha-what if. What if Zecora did this? What if one of her potions blew up. And it was making things crazy and Celestia saw and came and... And this happened?"

I couldn't look up. I was sobbing. But I did. She was right. It looked TERRIBLE here. Could it really have been Zecora? Was it her fault?

"C'mon Twi. You're gonna make me cry too. Is there anyone who you can tell about... This?"

Luna's somewhere around Ponyville. I guess we should tell her about... Ce-cel-..."

"Let's just go."

We found Luna by my used to be house. "Luna?"

"Twilight? Are you ok?"

"Well. I um. I found Celestia."

"Where is she?"

"By Zecora's" rainbow said before I could.

"Ze who's?! Who's Zecora?"

"She's a friend who lives in the Everfree forest. The house was collapsed on the both if them."

"Show me where it is"

Dash, Luna, and I flew to Zecora's used-to-be-cottage. We pointed out Celestia.

''Girls, may I have some time alone please?"

Rainbow and I nodded in silence and left. We went to Canterlot for a while to get spike and tell Shining and Cadence what had happened.

Scootaloo Is Back

After about twenty minutes, everything stopped. Scootaloo came back slamming the door as a surprise. I hope she didnt see anything. When she got into clear eyeshot she had a mad, not awkward or grossed out or confused face on. So she didn't see anything.

"Woah there squirt, don't break my house!" Dash exclaimed.

"Not. Funny." Scootaloo replied.

"Hey your not still mad are ya? I was stressed. I fell better now. Wanna get something to eat?" Rainbow asked as Scootaloo ignored every word as if Dash is an old imaginary friend. Another door slammed about five seconds later.

"So I'll take that as a no?" Rainbow Dash asked loudly. A growl escaped from the filly's mouth just loud e ought to hear.

"We'll me and twilight are going! So have fun without us!" Dash yelled back.

"We are?" I questioned.

"Sure why not? All that worked up an appetite right?" She replied.

"Umm. I guess. But where will we go? All of the restaurants got destroyed."

"Canterlot." She said seriously. "Heck you can invite Shining Armor and Cadence if you want! Whatever you want."

"Ok. I do want them to come, but JUST as a dinner. Not a date. For us at least." I ordered.

"Fine alright. Just a dinner not a date." Dash said annoyed as she rose her right arm. I smirked. Then we both broke into a loud laughter.

"Ok ok let's go. I want to be back before it gets too dar- LUNA!" I yelled suddenly. "We forget about her!" I started panicking. "Omigosh she's going to be ticked off at us. Oh no. Oh no. Oh no." I got down and started rocking back and forth.

"Hey relax. She said she needed some time to herself right?" She asked.

  "Yeah but not an hour!" I yelled back. "We need to go find her!"

"Alright then let's go." Dash said almost annoyed.

When we got there Luna was asleep by her beloved sister. I guess there was nothing to worry about. I waved my wing at Dash to leave her to sleep. She followed me back as we went to Canterlot to eat. We went to the castle as a first-stop route to ask Cadence and Shining to eat with us. The agreed and we went to the finest restaurant there.
