Michael Walker discovers he can travel back and forth between Earth and Equestria as he wishes, though the method is a bit unorthodox...

A spin-off/alternate universe sequel to the Fashionista's Dilemma.

Several months have passed since his day as Twilight and after a long week of work, Michael Walker discovers his car can transport him to Equestria. He makes a plan to return using his car, but discovers, by accident, that he can travel back and forth any time he wants -- there's just one catch -- the portal between the two worlds is focused on his bed as well as Twilight's. He also discovers that a talent he has leads a certain Solar Princess to try to keep him in Equestria so that he may provide her certain services...

I wrote this story for my personal amusement and decided to share it. It's not to be taken seriously, just a little mind candy for the sake of having a few giggles.

Mature for clop -- the story does not revolve around it, though there is a fair amount of it.

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 2 -- Some Prisons Don't Have Bars

"Your Majesty, I would request you let me know before you do that -- I had just eaten about fifteen minutes ago and teleporting like that on a full stomach makes me want to -- BLAAARRGG!" I exclaimed as I lost the battle against my nausea. My stomach felt like it had been tied into a knot by her abrupt teleport, causing her to give me a look of concern and apology.

"I must apologize for that, Amethyst -- there is a great deal of information I would like you to give me," she stated as she used her magic to clean up the mess I had made. "I shall provide you with more food, if you'd like."

"Is it verboten for ponies to eat meat? As a human, my diet was very meat intensive," I stated. "And for breakfast, it was customary, depending on location, or at least where I came from, for humans to have bacon along with whatever else they were having for breakfast. Personally, I preferred burnt bacon and burnt white bread toast."

"For as long as you remain a pony, Amethyst, I would strongly recommend against eating meat -- you do not want to carry the reputation as a carnivore -- and as a mare, that stigma is an even greater burden to bear than you might realize. I shall have an escort take you to the dining hall for brunch."

"I was curious to know if you might join me, your Majesty -- you said you were curious about a great many things about my home world," I stated, though my puzzled expression spoke loudly enough. She gave me a reassuring smile.

"I can obtain that information any time I want, Amethyst -- I have certain duties and must attend to them first. I may join you in the dining hall, or I may await your return here, or I may accompany you during your tour of my Castle, or I may visit you in your room," she offered warmly.

"Your Majesty! You are providing me with a room here in your Castle? You are too kind," I grinned.

"You will be assigned certain duties to perform while here in order to cover room and board -- you will also be provided a monetary stipend for discretionary purchases as you see fit."

"What sort of duties?" I asked, almost hesitantly.

"Whatever I assign you, of course," the Alicorn chuckled.

"But ... but I have a job ... in my ... home ... world?" I asked fearfully as I saw her turn around and glare at me.

"Amethyst, you are now a resident in my realm, and while you were a human, you had a job in your home world -- but you are no longer there. You are now one of my little ponies and you are to obey Equestrian law just the same as you obeyed the laws and regulations in your home world."

"I ... was hoping to ... return to ... Earth ...?"

"Only when I permit it, Amethyst -- and you certainly cannot return looking like that, now can you?" she asked, nearly giggling as she did so.

"And if too much time passes there, I won't have a job or a home to return to," I replied dejectedly.

"Don't worry about it too much, Amethyst -- I'm sure you will enjoy yourself here, after all, you have done quite well in providing me pleasure! I took the liberty of reading your mind and noticed you expressed a strong desire to remain here and make a new life for yourself! Well, I am providing you that opportunity! As I had stated earlier, depending on how well you pleased me, you would be rewarded -- and this is your reward!" she grinned.

"Um ... thank you, your Majesty?" I half-heartedly stated as more of a question than a sincere offer of gratitude.

I think I might have done too good a job of pleasing her...

"I know it may seem like a curse to you now, Michael, but trust me -- in due time, you will come to appreciate it. I would also like to inform you that I have extended your lifespan by ... a considerable amount, so you don't have to worry about dying of old age or other causes anytime soon! Consider that as part of your reward as well!" she stated a little too cheerfully for my taste. Hearing her call me by my human name while I was still in the body of a unicorn mare raised the hackles on the back of my neck, something she noticed by raising an eyebrow. I decided that now was not the time for confrontation.

"And this amulet? I get to keep it, right?" I asked as I took another glance at it, admiring its beauty.

"But of course, Amethyst! I don't ask for the return of gifts, unlike some ponies you've heard about."

I glanced at the amulet again, feeling the power flowing through it as I could sense my own magical power being enhanced by it. It glowed an iridescent blue to match the diadem in its center. "Very well then, Princess Celestia, you have my sincere thanks. I just hope I can provide you with satisfaction to the best of my ability," I stated reverently.

I wonder how long she wants me to stay here...

The Alicorn smiled warmly at me. "Excellent, Amethyst, that is precisely what I wanted to hear from you." She then called one of her royal guardsponies, a stallion, to be my chaperon and escort. As with any royal guardspony, his armor was magically enchanted to cause his coat color to appear white, though when he removed it, his coat changed to a strong teal color, his mane and tail having a tawny gold and brown color to them, his eyes a pale orange.

"Hello, Lady Amethyst, I am Right Face, 2nd lieutenant of Her Royal Highness Princess Celestia's Canterlot Guard and I shall be your escort. I am to give you a tour of the Castle and to show you to your room as well as notify you of your duties and workplace here. I would also like to personally state just how beautiful you are, my Lady!" he noted brightly. A quizzical look crossed his face momentarily when he noticed the lack of a cutie mark.

I chuckled. "You certainly are an eager stallion, aren't you? I'll let you in on a little secret -- appearances can be deceiving some times -- and at one time, I was a male human," I said, offering a big toothy grin.

"Ah, the lady makes jokes!" he chuckled. "You must be joking, you wouldn't say something so outlandish if you weren't ... would you, my Lady?"

"A-heh, sometimes reality can prove to be more amusing than any jokes one might make," I said softly. I watched him go into wide-eyed shock, which caused me to erupt into laughter. My laughing was infectious enough to get him to start laughing as well.

"Ah, of course! You were just joking! I'll be sure not to ask such questions again, my Lady," he offered sincerely.

"I am honored you refer to me as 'my Lady,' but you may refer to me as Amethyst if you'd like -- actually, I think I would prefer that," I mused.

"I noticed your amulet, Amethyst -- such a talisman marks you as nobility, therefore, I am obligated to call you 'my Lady' as it represents the normal order as established by Equestrian law," he responded.

"I thank you for your thoughtfulness then, Right Face," I chuckled. "Nobility, eh? I wonder what the Princess has in mind for me." The stallion trotted ahead of me, informing me that I was to follow him. I was somewhat surprised to see that as a mare, I stood taller than him -- and as we passed various other ponies, I noticed I stood taller than a majority of them as well. Not as tall as when in my human form, but I found myself pleased anyway. I caught him stealing glances at me as we trotted to the dining hall -- initially I considered it amusing, but he told me that as my escort, he was required to ensure that I remain in his eyesight, therefore he would look back to make sure I hadn't run off or anything, though he also confessed he was smitten with my beauty.

Might want to see if you can make that work to your advantage...

We trotted through the castle until we reached the dining hall, a trek which took about ten minutes, during which I was stared at by a fair number of ponies, though when they saw my amulet bowed slightly to me, save for a certain white unicorn stallion who seemed to point his muzzle upwards in contempt. I noticed his mane had been styled for him, though I also recognized his cutie mark.

"Prince Blueblood!" I shouted at him, chuckling softly. Right Face turned to face me and gave me a worried look.

"You'd best not anger him -- he'll lie to the Princess about you," he admonished.

"Ah, such a pretty lady -- I've not seen you around here, um -- I'm at a bit of a disadvantage here -- you seem to know who I am, so who might you be? How is it you have no cutie mark?" he asked, a slight air of condescension in his voice.

"I am Amethyst Shadow, your Majesty. My lack of a cutie mark is a secret which I may tell you some time later."

"How is it you know of me?" he asked, his gaze seeming to harden.

"I heard tell of a certain event which occurred during the last Grand Galloping Gala involving a certain white unicorn mare who was here with her friends, which --"

"Please, Lady Amethyst, do not remind me of that event -- I was utterly mortified! I had just been groomed, and this detestably horrible commoner had the temerity to shake her filthy cake-covered body and dirty me up in the process!" he complained.

"Rumor has it you used her body to shield yourself from a falling cake," I mused. I saw him turn a paler shade of white.

"N-n-nonsense! I am a Prince! I would never stoop to using another pony's body as a shield!" he protested. I grinned at his mendacity.

He's every bit as slimy as I heard...perhaps I can teach him some humility.

"If you say so, your Majesty. I must be off -- see you later," I stated nonchalantly and returned to my chaperon's side. "Right Face, let's get a bite to eat, please."

"I am pleased you restrained yourself, my Lady -- the Prince can have quite a temper," he noted.

"Lady Amethyst, I would desire your company this evening," Blueblood requested as he trotted up to me. I stood about half a hoof taller than him, so having him look up to me brought a smile to my lips. He misinterpreted my smile.

"I must apologize, your Majesty, as I have other plans this evening. I appreciate your kind offer, but I must politely refuse." I watched his expression drop.

"Please, Lady Amethyst, I insist," he begged. He pouted at me, making me giggle softly.

"I am very sorry, Prince, but I cannot. I have a meeting with Princess Celestia, and she requires my presence."

"Very well then, my Lady. Some other time, I suppose? I am her nephew, so I might be able to persuade her to let me join you some time," he stated, a note of hopefulness in his voice.

"Your Auntie might have a few things to tell you about me you're not going to believe," I grinned as I turned back to my stallion escort. "We have tarried long enough, Right Face -- I need something to eat before they stop serving."

"Lady Amethyst? What do you mean by that?" asked the clueless Prince.

"You shall discover the truth soon enough, your Majesty," I chuckled, not bothering to face him as I followed my escort into the dining hall. Unbelievably, the Prince followed us in.

"I shall join you for brunch," he offered. I was sorely tempted to facehoof, but restrained myself from expressing my disbelief in that fashion.

Does he really find me that attractive or is he really that desperate?

"Suit yourself, your Majesty," I replied flatly. I took a seat towards one end of the table, noticing Princess Luna was having a light snack. I saw her glower at Blueblood, which brought a smile to my face. Upon noticing the Lunar Princess, I bowed before her.

"Princess Luna, your Majesty," I offered warmly. "Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Amethyst Shadow."

"Such formality! We hath not seen thee in Canterlot before -- wouldst thou tell Us of thy origin?"

"I would be delighted to, your Majesty! I would also desire something to eat -- Princess Celestia teleported me here from Ponyville, and the resulting discomfort caused me to evacuate the contents of my stomach," I stated.

"We shall have words with Our sister regarding that -- We are sorry to hear of thy plight -- thou wears an amulet of the Alicorn? Where didst thou receivest it?"

"Your sister gave it to me, Luna -- as a reward for services provided. I have a story to tell you, one which you might find completely unbelievable, but one which is true. At one time, I was a male human -- until today, with one exception, one day about five months ago when I was transformed into Twilight Sparkle," I began.

"Verily, Amethyst, thy tale already sounds unbelievable," Luna noted. "We are more curious to know what services thou provided Our sister to convince her thou wouldst deserve that amulet thou wears."

"Please call your sister here so she may transform me back into my male human body and I will show you what services I provided her!" I giggled. Luna found my demeanor disrespectful and commented on it, but I looked her squarely in her eyes to let her know I was serious about it, so she called her sister, who immediately teleported into the dining hall. Upon seeing me standing next to her sister, a smile crept on her face.

"Amethyst, I see you have met my sister. Luna, why have you called me here?"

"We desire to know why thou hast given that talisman to --"

Without bothering to let her sister finish her statement, the elder Alicorn wrapped her aura around me and gave me another reverse transformation into my male human body. This caused everypony in the dining hall to express no small degree of shock, several spit-takes, a few faintings (including Blueblood), and Luna's eyes to go wide and jaw to drop. I gave her a big toothy grin before walking to her and scratching her behind her ears.

"Tia, where didst thou findest him? Verily, his touch works magic!" the indigo Alicorn exclaimed. I looked down on my chest to see the amulet was still there, but Celestia cleared her throat to get my attention.

"Michael, are you going to give my sister the full demonstration of what you did to earn my favor?"

"Your Majesty, that's entirely up to both you and your sister -- if she desires the full treatment, including the "happy ending," that's for both of you to decide," I chuckled as I scratched lower on the Alicorn's neck, drawing some rather lascivious moans out of her. "I had no idea she was this sensitive," I added, grinning slightly.

The Solar Princess grinned broadly at my statement. "I believe my sister does indeed desire the full treatment, Michael. Consider it part of your duties here in my Castle, though such requests will be made sparingly so as to prevent you from becoming excessively fatigued. Luna, I believe we should return to your bedchamber to continue this matter."

"Ah, yes, Tia, We concur," the Lunar Princess moaned. "We shall teleport thee with Us," she said to me without thinking and enveloped me in her aura and disappeared, rematerializing in her bedchamber a split-second later.

"BLAAAARG!" I protested as I disgorged my food again, then coughed a few times. "Water! I need some water!"

"Amethyst, We apologize for that -- the sink is in the washroom, to your left," she said softly.

"My human form is called Michael, your Majesty," I said as I walked to the washroom to drink a few handfuls of water to clear my throat and wash my face off. I found a towel and wiped my face with it and returned to find Luna splayed out on her bed.

"Didst thou not speak of a 'happy ending?' We desire such be provided Us, Michael!" she grinned.

"Ah, the happy ending. Please be kind enough to stand for me, Luna -- it's more convenient for me that way."

She dutifully complied with my request, almost a little too eagerly. I returned to scratching her head and neck, but she complained that I had already done that and wanted a further demonstration of what I had done. As with the previous ponies, I began rubbing circles into her withers, running my hands along her back, though my fingers brushed against her wings, which seemed to spring outward quite stiffly.

"Michael, please be careful about Our wings," she stated flatly. I rubbed circles into the delicate muscles under them, eliciting some breathy moans from her. "Aaaah, Michael! Thou hast found Our spot! We desire more, please!"

I continued to massage her body, working smaller and tighter circles just in front of her tail on her back, then down the sides of her flanks, lightly tracing her cutie marks. Her moans became deeper and longer, her breath coming in gasps as she found herself becoming quite aroused by my touch. I took her slender left hind leg with my right hand and gently worked into it with my left hand, down to her hoof.

"Stop thy teasing and start the rutting!" she commanded, her voice making my ears hurt.

"Ooooh, who's a naughty filly?" I asked coyly, grinning broadly at the indigo alicorn. She returned my grin with one of her own.

"We hath been a naughty filly, Michael! Thou must spankest Us, as We deserves it completely!" she announced quite loudly. I sized up her hindquarters, noting her slender flanks. I raised my left hand and gave her a firm smack, though my fingertips brushed her left cutie mark. "Aaahh! More! More! MORE!" she gasped as her moans became louder and longer with my repeated slaps to her hindquarters.

How freaky is this Alicorn?

I began using both hands to smack her ass, alternating left and right and increasing the speed slightly. This caused her body to tense up, her wings at the full span as stiff as her body as her climax continued to build. I noticed her moaning had aroused me to full erection and asked her if she wanted me to rut her.

"Thou art hard as rock, are thou not? Thou may rut us like the naughty filly we are!" she commanded loudly. I responded by smacking her ass a few more times, causing her to whinny. I hugged her from behind, my lower abdomen squarely against her plot, noting that it was nearly ideally sized to suit me.

"Oooh, Luna, you seem to be the perfect size for me," I mused as I slowly inserted my rock hard glans into her sopping wet pussy. I hilted easily and began thrusting back and forth slowly to gauge her reaction.

"Oooooooh, Michael! Thou pleasest Us greatly!" she moaned, gasping between the last few words.

"Mmmh, how sensitive are you, Luna?" I asked, finding the ease with which I was able to please her somewhat unnerving.

If she's this sensitive, she may develop an addiction to me -- I've already complimented her on being the perfect size for me...

"Oooooooooh, yessssss!" she cooed as I continued my slow thrusting, drawing out my pleasure -- but this seemed to be the perfect pace for the Night Princess, who reveled in the sensation I was giving her. "Mmmmmh! Ooooooh! Yes!" she huffed as her body began to tense up with the anticipation of a slow long climax. Her low breathy moans were an aural aphrodisiac to me, causing me to clench my buttocks more tightly as I began speeding up the pace of my thrusting.

Her moans became a little more high pitched as I quickened my pace, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she uttered just a single word over and over again, very breathily, but also very erotic, urging me to go faster still. The squelching noise of my rock hard member sliding effortlessly in and out of her dripping wet pussy added to the effect as I pounded into her with as much force as I dared, though not so fast as to spend all my stamina. My effort was rewarded with a long breathy moan of pleasure, though my stamina ran out before I could reach climax. I grunted with my exertion, trying to help her along until I pushed her over the edge.

"OOOOOHHHH! MICHAEL! YESSSSS!" she hissed as she surrendered herself to her passion, her body quivering as the wave of pleasure washed over her. She smiled warmly at me as I laid on her back, my lower abdomen mashed against her hindquarters, my shaft as deeply into her pussy as it could go. "Mmmh, Michael, didst thou not receive as much pleasure as We did?" she asked softly, giving me a somewhat quizzical look.

"Princess Luna, it was an honor to provide you pleasure -- I have already received more today than I have at any time during the last twenty years," I replied as I gently ran a hand up and down her neck, eliciting another light moan from the indigo Alicorn. It took me a few moments longer to catch my breath. The warmth of her body against my belly and lap felt very nice, though my now flaccid dick flopped out of her sloppy wet pussy. A final squelching sound announced its departure from her love tunnel.

"You have done well, Michael," the Solar Princess addressed me warmly, a serene smile on her face, though just a hint of a blush could be seen on her cheeks. I had completely forgotten that she had been watching us the entire time and was rather surprised she had decided to stay. "I shall return you to your previous form and to the dining hall once again -- I apologize for causing you such discomfort and I will try to remember not to teleport you after you have eaten. Fresh food will be brought to you once again."

"Tia, We desire that Michael be allowed to remain with Us," Luna requested.

"Luna, did he not provide you with a happy ending? He has performed his duties admirably -- and I believe he needs some rest along with being given another opportunity to eat, considering the fact that he suffered such discomfort by our hasty decision to teleport him. I believe his digestive system is not strong enough to withstand teleportation." I nodded my head in agreement with the Solar Princess as she trotted over to me and wrapped a wing around me.

"Tia, we desire another round of pleasure at the earliest convenience," the indigo alicorn practically begged.

"Tomorrow, maybe," I offered softly, grinning. "I've had all I can take for today and I thank you both for your kindness."

"Michael, I believe you have some other duties to attend to as Amethyst Shadow," Celestia stated flatly as she transformed me back into a dark purple unicorn mare, then teleported me back to the dining hall. Right Face was still waiting for me and smiled once he saw me return in the company of the Solar Princess. He trotted over to me at this point.

"Amethyst, how did this teleport affect you?" asked Celestia.

"My stomach feels a little queasy, but nowhere near as badly as the previous teleport. I think if I experience it a few more times, I'll be able to withstand it more easily," I replied. She nodded her head in acknowledgement, though the teal stallion had a puzzled expression on his face.

"Amethyst, there is a specific reason I assigned you Right Face as your chaperon -- are you curious to know why?"

"Yes, but there's another issue, your Majesty," I replied. "Your nephew Blueblood seems to find me rather attractive -- perhaps a little too attractive."

"My nephew finds nearly all the mares around here particularly attractive, Amethyst!" she chuckled. "I will have eyes on him to prevent him from getting any ideas about you," she added with a more serious tone.

"Why not let him find out the hard way?" I asked, flashing a menacing grin. "Might teach him a lesson or two..."

"What do you mean by that, Lady Amethyst?" asked my chaperon.

"This does not concern you, Right Face," the alicorn rebuked, glaring at him sternly. "Excellent idea, Amethyst," she addressed me, flashing a mischievous grin. "I could use a few laughs."

"Begging your pardon, your Majesty, if I may obtain a little more food?" I asked.

"But of course, Amethyst. Please be seated, I will have a server bring you something."

I returned to the table and was brought a platter with three hay pancakes on it. I stared at the food for a moment, causing the other ponies still seated to titter at my reaction. Gingerly, I levitated a knife and fork to my plate and began cutting the cakes into bite-sized pieces, then covered them with a thin layer of syrup.

I hope pony taste buds have different receptors than human ones...

I shaped my aura into a hand and grabbed the fork using it, stabbing a chunk of squares and lifting it to my mouth. I hesitated before opening my mouth to accept the unusual foodstuff, eliciting laughter from the other ponies. The Solar Princess glared sternly at them, causing them to quiet immediately. I took the fork into my mouth, allowing the chunk of food to sit on my tongue, then began chewing. As a pony, the taste of hay mixed with the sugary batter of the pancakes, coupled with the syrup allowed the flavors to mesh quite wonderfully. I chewed, savoring the taste, then finished the rest of the food with gusto.

"Wow, I had no idea they tasted that good!" I exclaimed, eliciting more laughter from the other ponies.

"This is her first time eating hay pancakes," Celestia stated firmly. More laughter and hushed whispers ensued. "Must I remind you of what she looked like before we left?" she asked more sternly, glaring at the others. Silence. "Thank you."

"May I have a few more, your Majesty?" I asked. I hadn't noticed, but as a pony, I hadn't been very careful about eating.

"You may have more if you clean yourself -- has no one taught you proper table manners?" she asked, giving me a look of disapproval. I looked at myself and at my place at the table and frowned.

"My apologies, your Majesty. I shall clean it up as best I can," I replied softly. I looked for a napkin and used my telekinesis to wipe my face and the area around where I was sitting, cleaning it up adequately well in my opinion. The Alicorn smiled at me and summoned the server to bring me three more hay pancakes, which disappeared even more swiftly than the first serving. I washed them down with orange juice, noting the flavor of the juice to be substantially sweeter than I remembered as a human.

"If you're done eating, I believe Right Face may now continue with his duties as your escort," she stated flatly, trotting away from me. I watched her as she left the dining hall -- I assumed she had decided to return to her duties, though the teal stallion informed me that this was the case.

"Lady Amethyst, please follow me. I shall show you to your quarters and to your new duty station. Her Highness informed me that you once held a position as a librarian -- we have need for somepony with your skills to assist the current librarian. Your quarters will be in the same wing as the library," he said, offering me a smile which I returned.

"Thank you, Right Face," I responded as I trotted behind him.

Chapter 3 -- Stallions Come A' Calling

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 3 -- Stallions Come A' Calling

I had followed this teal stallion around for the better part of the day, having been given an extensive tour of the Castle, though not an exhaustive one. I was amazed by the sheer size of the interior and flabbergasted by the complexity of corridors, great halls, and staircases. The layout was confusing, to say the least.

"Right Face, how is it possible to memorize where everything is, given the immensity of this place?" I asked, astonishment coloring my words.

"If you had lived here long enough, Lady Amethyst, you would be able to remember where everything is -- I have lived in the Castle for more than twenty years, so I know the ins and outs of this place like the bottom of my hooves," he chuckled. "I know it is improper of me to ask this, my Lady, but I am curious to know if you have a special somepony yet."

I wonder if he's thinking what I think he's thinking...

"No, not at the moment, Right Face -- but I would rather have the Prince stop by my quarters later," I replied. I forced myself to stifle a giggle at the thought of his reaction upon seeing what I really looked like...

"...Fine. I shall see to it," the teal stallion huffed in annoyance.

"Right Face, don't think I'm not interested in you -- I have a plan for the Prince," I giggled. He turned around and gave me a very curious look, causing me to smile even wider. "I can't tell you what that plan is -- it's a secret, one even the Princess cannot be let in on. Let's just say that there's a very big surprise in store for her nephew and leave it at that," I said, flashing an almost malevolent grin.

"...You wouldn't do the same thing to me now, would you, my Lady?" he asked almost fearfully.

I giggled again. "No, of course not, Right Face -- I'd never do anything to embarrass or humiliate you."

As the words sank in, a sly smile came across his lips. "So, you intend to take him down a notch or two, eh? He's deserved something like that for a long time! I'm extremely curious to see how that plays out!" he grinned.

"I'll be sure to give you all the juicy details, Right Face!" I giggled, flashing a big toothy grin.

"I look forward to it, my Lady," he offered warmly before leaving my new quarters. I trotted around the room to acquaint myself with my new surroundings -- my bed was the first thing I tested, hopping onto it and testing it for comfort and size, noticing that it was probably one of the softest I had ever lain on. Upon further examination, I discovered it was made of solidified cloud, which elicited a very big grin.

At least the Princess is looking after my comfort, if nothing else...

A large vanity sat against the wall opposite my bed, a large mirror atop it. Placed on the vanity was an assortment of combs, brushes, a first-aid kit, a horn file, along with ink, quills, and parchment. A low bench sat under the vanity, perhaps for the purpose of standing on it with my forelegs. I took a moment to examine myself in the mirror, still noticing the lack of a cutie mark.

I suppose that will come to me in time, but I'm okay with being a blank-flank for now...

The bathroom was to the right of the vanity, a nice big tub for either showering or taking a nice long hot bath, a sink for brushing my teeth and washing my face, a medicine cabinet which had been stocked with various items should the need arise, and the requisite commode for addressing those more pressing needs whenever they arose. A towel rack was positioned on the wall opposite the tub, offering several towels of varying sizes for different purposes. A full-length mirror was attached to the wall opposite the sink, though a smaller mirror was placed above the sink. The plumbing fixtures appeared to be either gold or gold-plated. I opened the medicine cabinet to see a toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste. A collection of various soaps and shampoos were ensconced within the medicine cabinet as well as another first aid kit. The walls were a muted pale lavender, a color I particularly liked. The shower curtain and floor mat matched the paint on the walls as well as the tile on the floor and walls.

At least I'll be living in style...looks like she thought of everything.

Along a wall to the left of the vanity was a large bookcase which held a substantial number of books. Considering how much free time I was going to have now that I was going to be a permanent resident in Canterlot if not Equestria, I would most definitely need some reading material to keep my mind occupied. Had I known what was in store for me, that would prove to be the least of my concerns. I was interrupted in my attempt to read a book I pulled at random from one of the shelves by a knocking at my door.

"It's open, come in," I said, not bothering to see who it was. A certain white stallion with a neatly styled blonde mane entered.

"Lady Amethyst, my Auntie told me I could find you here," he offered sprightly, beaming a big smile upon seeing me -- or was it a leer? He appeared to be staring at my beauty.

"Prince Blueblood. I was told you're sweet on all the mares in the Castle," I averred, frowning at him.

He trotted into my room, ogling me as he continued. "My Auntie says that to keep the mares away from me -- she tells me I should save myself for marriage. Please forgive me, my Lady, but I am entranced by your beauty, even if you don't have a cutie mark -- and I should very much like to ask your hoof in marriage," he offered, bowing to me ever so slightly.

He must really be smitten with me -- I can't believe he would bow to me!

"Your Auntie speaks wisdom, Prince -- but truthfully, I'm afraid I cannot marry you, as much as you would want me to. I am already married to another and I cannot break my vow. I must admit, though, that your offer is quite noble and I am deeply flattered and honored you would make such a request of me. I apologize for disappointing you, but perhaps I can make it up to you some other way," I said warmly, offering a small smile.

"Lady Amethyst, please! It would mean so much to me if I could be the one stallion lucky enough to have you as my mare!" he pleaded. I considered his offer and contemplated the possibility of his reaction were he to discover the truth -- but I decided such a trick would be far too cruel, even for him.

"I have a secret to tell you, Prince -- I wanted to keep it for another time, but your offer seems very sincere and I couldn't possibly bring myself to hurt you as badly as I think it would if you were to discover the truth later on."

His eyes went wide as saucers as his mouth flopped open and closed. After a moment of trying to get his brain working again, he asked, "What sort of secret do you hide that would hurt me that badly?"

"Do you remember earlier when I was in the dining hall, about to have brunch and met up with Princess Luna? Did you see what your Auntie did to me while I was there?" I asked, my grin widening with each question. It took a moment for the answer to come to him and when it did, his eyes went even wider.

"You -- you -- were -- not -- not -- a -- pony!" he exclaimed in shock and fainted again. I chuckled upon seeing this reaction, then used my telekinesis to lift him and carry him through my door, depositing him softly in the corridor on the carpet. A Royal Guardspony saw this and trotted over to me.

"What did you do to Prince Blueblood?" he asked me.

"Nothing -- I told him something so shocking, he fainted," I giggled. He grinned at this mention.

"I always knew he was soft!" the guard chuckled and returned to his previous duty. I turned around and went back into my room, closing the door behind me.

I need to start asking who's knocking before letting them in.

I returned to the bookcase and retrieved the book I had pulled. I telekinetically flipped through the pages, skimming for anything interesting. I returned the book to the shelf and trotted over to my bed and laid down upon it. The softness of the bed lulled me to sleep, something that normally didn't happen to me unless I was extremely tired. It was mid-afternoon when I laid down, luxuriating in the comfort of my new bed, falling into a deep slumber I hadn't experienced in quite a long time. I lost track of how long I slept, but I was woken by a sharp rapping at my door.

"Huh? Wuzzah what? Whozat?" I asked, my words slurred as I was still half-asleep. The door was opened by my escort, who had come to offer me dinner in the dining hall. I hadn't bothered to cover myself as I hadn't considered the possibility of somepony barging into my room for whatever purpose. He got a nice view of my marehood as he trotted up to me.

"Lady Amethyst, um ..." the teal stallion said, letting his words trail off softly. I turned over to look at him, noticing he had become aroused by something.

"Mmm, Right Face -- what brings you here?" I asked. Being a mare was starting to have an impact on me and the hormonal changes had me looking at the stallion through new eyes. Seeing his erect member caused me to grin and beckon him closer. "See something you like?"

He blushed deeply, perhaps in embarrassment. He cleared his throat loudly. "Ahem, my Lady, um, uh -- yes, but --"

"Mmmh, fraternization is frowned upon? I won't tell anypony if you don't," I offered softly, my grin widening. I could swear I was starting to drool at the sight of his schlong, noting its length -- it didn't seem to be receding, either! He grinned upon hearing this and approached me slowly, eyeing me hungrily. His member began throbbing ever so slightly as it bobbed with his movement. I blushed, though considering my dark purple coat, it caused my cheeks to lighten a few shades. My eyes were drawn to his glans -- I couldn't look away from it -- and my body began producing pheromones which enticed him further.

"Sounds good to me, Amethyst," he chuckled as he climbed onto my bed, then onto my back. His weight pushed me deeply into the mattress, causing me to gasp for breath. I spread my hind legs wide for him, my sex beginning to wink as my hormones kicked into overdrive. I heard him sniff the air, taking in my musk.

"Mmmh, Right Face -- let me get off the bed -- I don't wanna get it messed up," I protested. I heard him groan in response, but he got off me so I could get up. This was a brand new bed for me and I was wanting to protect it from unnecessary soiling. I rose to my hooves, though my fatigue was such that I nearly lost my balance before I recovered to stand on all fours. Without any further hesitation, the teal stallion trotted up to my hindquarters and pushed his muzzle between my haunches, extending the tip of his tongue to my sex. He licked my pussy from the front to the back, sending an electric thrill through me, causing me to moan very deeply. "Ooooh! Mmmmh! Your tongue!" I cooed, grinning broadly.

"I've had quite a bit of practice, my Lady!" he chuckled. "Why not lay on your back on your bed? It'll make it easier for me."

I complied willingly, my hind legs draped over the end of the bed. He knelt before me and buried his face between my haunches, pushing his tongue as deeply as he could into my love tunnel. My clit popped out for him as he licked and probed my pussy, sliding his tongue along the fleshy folds. He nibbled my little love button, sending jolts of pleasure straight to my brain -- this experience was new to me, but the feeling was so intense I could barely stand it. My nerve endings were responding to his licking, but every time he brushed his teeth against my clit, my brain seemed to short-circuit -- my deep breathy moans urged him onward. Every so often, he would stop his ministrations to my pussy and look up to lock his gaze with mine and give me a big smile, eliciting a similar reaction from me.

"Oooh! Yes! That's the spot! Yes! Aaaah! Keep going!" I huffed, gasping for breath between words. I couldn't believe I was getting this much pleasure from just his tongue -- the sensation so intense I didn't want it to stop!

"Mmmh, you taste so nice, Amethyst!" he grinned. I looked a bit lower and noticed his glans was starting to dribble with pre-cum. He followed my gaze and saw his grin widen. "Ah, so you're ready for this, huh? I was told you're a virgin, so I'll go easy on you!"

"You want me to turn over for you? Or are you going to do me while I'm still on my back?" I asked, my eyes still fixed on his fully erect glans. My sex winked again as my hunger began to build.

"Doesn't matter," he replied with a chuckle as he straddled me with his forelegs, his schlong bobbing on my belly. I guided it into my sopping wet love tunnel, feeling my outer lips give way to the head of his member which was already starting to flare a little.

"Aaaaah! Hunnnnh!" I moaned as he pushed his member up to the medial ring -- my marehood was putting up resistance to this insertion. He pulled back a little and pushed hard into me, his rock hard member piercing me as he hilted. "AAAAAHH! OWW!" I cried out, a couple of tears welling up in the corners of my eyes. Fortunately, he didn't pull back, he just remained in me for a few moments as the pain subsided.

"Sorry about that, my Lady -- I was hoping it wouldn't hurt that much," he offered softly as he laid on top of me. As the pain receded, I licked his muzzle with my tongue.

"Mmmh, just stay in me for a little bit longer -- try pulling out very slowly and pushing back in slowly again -- the pain seems to be lessening," I offered before giving his muzzle another lick, causing him to giggle. He acceded to my request, pulling back ever so slowly -- there was no more pain now, and the sensation of his still hard glans sliding inside my love tunnel sent new signals to my brain as I started moaning again, deeper and breathier as he began speeding up his rhythm. I bucked my hips against him to increase the sensation as he sped up a little more. He grunted with his exertion, the squelching sound of his member sliding back and forth in my pussy an extra stimulation for me as well as the slapping sound of his balls against my haunches. I was getting close as my body began tensing up, the warmth building inside causing me to start sweating.

"Unh! Hanh! Hanh! Unh!" he huffed, speeding up his rhythm even more, the sounds of his glans slurping in and out of my very wet pussy along with the intense sensation of said hole being filled caused me to clench my eyes shut with the pleasure I was receiving.

"Aaaah, Right Face! Ooooh, yessss!" I hissed as I started to feel my passion rising towards a crescendo -- I was tensing up as I could sense just how close I was, my moaning urging him to go even faster and harder.

"Ooooh, yeeeaahhhh," he moaned as his body tensed up quickly. He was thrusting into me swiftly and forcefully as my breaths came in ragged gasps, my moans matching his tempo. I noticed his horn starting to glow, so I craned my neck upward a little, extending my tongue nearly as far as it would go so I could give it a lick. His reaction was nearly instantaneous as he surrendered to a sensation which pushed him into overdrive.

"AAAAAAHHH! OOOOHHH, FFFUUUUCCK! AAAAAHHHHH! CUMMING!" he moaned as he lost control of his body, overwhelmed by an extremely intense orgasm which caused him to jerk and spasm in an almost comical fashion. I felt the surge of his spunk as it shot out of his fully flared member, the heat of his jism pushing my passion towards a precipice of pleasure. I giggled a little, but his thrusting had pushed me over the edge as well, causing me to moan very loudly.

"Oooooh! YESSSS!" I hissed as my orgasm crashed like a tidal wave of pleasure, the sensation causing my vision to tunnel. I clenched my eyes shut again as I tried to milk my pleasure for as long as I could, riding that wave until I reached its end. "Mmmh, Right Face, stay inside me a little longer please," I cooed softly to him. He relaxed but stayed on top of me with his member still buried in my pussy. His spunk continued to spurt inside me, giving me cause to worry about becoming pregnant.

"Mmmh, Right Face, that was nice -- I just hope you didn't get me pregnant by doing that, though," I said softly, though a look of concern made itself evident.

"Truth be told, my Lady, I am impotent -- I was informed by my doctor of this about seven years ago. If you do end up getting pregnant because of my action, it will be considered a miracle," he responded confidently. He gave me a reassuring smile. "By the way, I must also thank you for providing me with a needed release. I certainly hope we might be able to do this again some time."

"Perhaps we will," I offered. I was about to go to the bathroom to shower off, but the teal stallion had one more question to ask.

"So how did your encounter with Prince Blueblood go? I saw him trotting around, mumbling to himself about some non-pony pony or something," the lieutenant mused.

"Ah, well -- he asked for my hoof in marriage -- I politely refused, but also informed him of a secret. I'm sure you probably saw Princess Celestia use some magic on me, yes?" I asked, grinning broadly. I watched the teal stallion freeze for a moment as he took a few moments to recall what he had witnessed earlier in the dining hall. His mouth opened as his eyes went wide.

"You -- you -- you -- uhhhh -- you're -- not ... excuse me, my Lady, I have to go," he stammered before he recovered enough to blurt out the latter part of his statement. He bolted out of my room, tears starting to well up in his eyes. Initially, I found this reaction rather amusing, but that emotion gave way to sympathy for the stallion.

That was a rather mean thing I did to him just now...I need to apologize to him.

I was about to chase after him, but before I took two steps toward the door of my room, he returned.

"Lady Amethyst, if I may call you that, I apologize for leaving like that," he offered, his head and ears lowered.

"Oh, Right Face, I'm sorry for saying that to you. Look, I need to freshen up a little before getting a little something for dinner. Can you give me about twenty minutes?"

"Of course, my Lady. I was worried you'd be upset with me," he replied.

"So why'd you change your mind so quickly? I thought you were freaked out by my confession."

"Ah, well -- I still am, my Lady -- but her Majesty informed me that I am still to be your escort. I shall wait for you to finish --"

"Please, Right Face -- you may join me in the shower," I said, smiling warmly. "I'm sure you could use a little freshening up as well."

"Are you sure? I do not wish to impose on you, my Lady."

"Please, I asked you to join me! I won't bite, I promise!" I giggled. He gave a somewhat nervous chuckle before following me into the bathroom. I turned on the tap, then the shower, allowing very warm water to flow from it. I climbed into the tub, allowing the water to wet up my coat, mane and tail. Right Face followed me in and began running his hooves along my body.

"You need some shampoo, my Lady," he chuckled, lighting his horn and pulling a bottle of shampoo from the cabinet. He poured a generous amount of the nearly cold shampoo on my back, causing me to whinny involuntarily as the sensation of the coldness of the shampoo hit my back. "Sorry about that, my Lady," he offered, though he also gave a slight chuckle at my reaction.

"You should have warmed it up in your hooves before dumping it on my back like that," I grumbled. He responded by massaging the shampoo into my coat, his touch speaking of much experience. I moaned softly, allowing the sensation to overtake me once again. "Mmmh, Right Face! I had no idea you were this talented!"

"I aim to please, my Lady," he responded softly as he worked his hooves into my neck, lathering up my mane as he did so. "Sweet Celestia you have a lot of hair for your mane!"

"That was my idea," I replied softly, just a hint of a giggle in my voice.

"What do you mean by that, my Lady? You got to choose how much hair you had for your mane?"

"A-yep, that's right! I even got to choose the colors," I added, giggling softly.

"How is that even possible? Unless you weren't actually born a pony..."

"Ding, ding, ding! Give the stallion a cigar!" I laughed. He gasped audibly at that mention, causing me to turn around and see him with his mouth agape, his eyes wide with fear. "Right Face, there's no need to be shocked -- as I said before, I don't bite!"

"Umm, okay, my Lady -- it's just that --"

"I like you, Right Face -- I want you to be my friend, even if I'm not what I appear to be. Just try to ignore the other stuff if you can, just appreciate me for my beauty," I suggested and smiled softly at him. His apprehension subsided as he returned to working his hooves into my body. "Mmmh, thank you," I moaned softly as he worked his way toward my tail. I caught him grinning as he worked rough circles into my muscles, kneading them with some force, eliciting more moans from me.

Damn, this feels so good!

He chuckled at my reaction, then slid his right forehoof between my haunches and up to my sex, rubbing the fleshy folds with just the tip of his hoof. I moaned more deeply as he did this -- I couldn't believe he was doing this to me in the shower!

"Unh, Right Face, hanh, I'm trying to, hanh, freshen up, hanh, not, hanh, get worked up, hanh, into another, hanh, orgasm!" I protested through my gasps as he continued to work his magic on my pussy. I was getting very close again just from his expert touch -- that, or I was feeling horny enough to want another orgasm...

"My Lady, I surmised from your reaction that you'd prefer I do this for you," he chuckled again. "Perhaps you preferred my tongue to my hoof?"

"Mmmmmmh! Yesss! Your tongue is like magic!" I cooed loudly before whinnying again when he nuzzled my sex and licked it with his tongue again. I couldn't help myself, it felt so good when he did that! "Hanh, we're gonna be late for dinner if we don't hurry!"

"I've got dinner right here," he laughed before returning to my pussy, licking with increased fervor.

"What about my dinner?" I asked.

"Do for me what I'm doing for you," he replied flatly. If he could have seen my face...

"Ugh! I don't do that!" I protested quite stridently. He halted his ministrations at this point and tried to get me to face him.

"Lady Amethyst, I ask you to return the pleasure I'm giving you in kind," he pleaded, giving me a sad-eyes look.

The water turned cold on us, forcing us out of the shower. I turned off the water and used my telekinesis to grab a towel, offering one to the lieutenant. "Right Face, I'm sorry -- there are some things I just can't do -- I hope you'll understand why it is I can't," I offered softly. He seemed a little crestfallen.

"Is it too much of me to ask specifically why, my Lady?"

"Um, remember when Princess Celestia used magic on me a bit earlier in the day? What she turned me into is my true form -- I'm actually male, but wanted to experience being a mare -- I consider it an essential experience --"

"You're not actually a lady? Why -- why -- why --"

I trotted up to him and embraced him in a hug, giving him a soft kiss on his lips. "Look, it's like this -- right now, the hormonal changes within are causing me to do certain things I would not normally do -- and given enough time, perhaps I might actually be willing to, um, suck your dick, but --"

"But right now you can't or don't want to, because you're not really a lady..." he said softly, pondering the gravity of his statement. He then started chuckling as he gave it more thought.

"Um, Right Face? Dinner? Would you be kind enough to escort me to the dining hall? I don't remember my way there from here -- we can continue this discussion later -- perhaps you might even be able to stay the night with me," I grinned mischievously.

He sprang to attention and saluted me, then grinned. "Yes, my Lady! I would be honored to escort you!"

I giggled at his reaction and followed him as we left my quarters. My pheromones seemed to be getting stronger, making me wonder if I was already beginning my estrus cycle -- a number of stallions seemed to be alerted to my presence as I trotted a few paces behind my teal escort. The trek to the dining hall took ten minutes again as I tried to memorize the turns we took and the two staircases we ascended to reach the corridor along which the entrance to our destination was located.

Chapter 4 -- Things That Go Bump in the Night

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 4 -- Things That Go Bump in the Night

Dinner was an unusual affair -- Princess Celestia was waiting at her end of the table and beckoned me over to her side, offering a sincere smile. She caught scent of my pheromones, causing her smile to widen a little more.

"Ah, Amethyst! I was hoping you'd be joining us -- there is a competition of sorts taking place tonight, and you will be helping us judge the dishes being prepared. We have four chefs competing for ten thousand bits -- each one will be preparing an assortment of dishes, though as each course is brought to us, we will be sending one of the chefs back to his home, until there is just one left. He or she will be declared the winner and be given the purse."

What is this, Iron Chef Equestria? My curiosity has been piqued...

"I've seen those competitions take place in my home world, your Majesty -- I had always wanted to be one of the judges to sample those dishes -- they always appeared to be very intriguing or very appetizing when I saw them -- I'd often find my mouth watering at the sight of them! Thank you for the opportunity, Princess," I stated reverently before taking a chair next to the Alicorn. "Your Majesty, I have another question -- I know you just transformed me into a mare, but was it strictly necessary for you to put me at the beginning of my estrus?"

The Alicorn's smile widened further, indicating great mischief. "Amethyst, I merely provided you with your desire -- however, there are other reasons for my actions. I cannot tell you precisely why, but --"

There's always a catch, isn't there, Celestia?

I was unable to control my exasperation at her explanation. "Why must everything be a test with you, Princess? The only reason I can think of as to why you have forced me to experience estrus was to see how well I could adjust to those hormonal changes -- it's already starting to affect the way I think. I can feel the warmth rising within me and there's an itching of sorts that demands certain attention," I grumbled, eliciting a light chuckle from her.

"If it is your desire to be returned to your previous form, I would be happy to oblige you," she responded mirthfully.

"Your Majesty, I haven't even been in this body for a single day! I remember requesting a trial period of sorts for being a pony, but -- I would have appreciated it if you would have allowed me more time before forcing estrus upon me. Even so, I'm not ready to give up on this experience just yet."

I'm actualy enjoying myself here -- I don't wanna go home just yet!

"Of course I'm testing you, Michael. I am curious to judge your perseverance and determine your adaptability in the face of adversity." Her statement caused me to frown for a moment before I regained a little composure. "Of course, I am willing to change you back into a human any time you wish."

I hate it when she calls me that while I'm in my pony form.

"Let me guess -- that request would result in a permanent reverse transformation, one which only you would be able to undo -- and should I request that action before a certain amount of time elapses -- in this case, I believe it might be during my estrus -- then I would never be able to experience being a pony again." Celestia nodded her head, her smile returning to its normal size.

Great -- just what I needed -- ever the consummate teacher, aren't you, Celestia?

It was at this point the first dish was brought to us. It was the first of four appetizers and the chefs who had prepared them stood to the left of the table. I was able to see two unicorns, a pegasus, and an earth pony who wore looks of expectation and concern. They had been asked to create a dish using dandelion greens, egg whites, pine nuts, and hay. A small serving had been prepared for the four of us at the table, Celestia at the head, me to the left, Luna to the right, and Prince Blueblood to my left. I looked down at the plate before me, seeing a dark green mass with yellow bits sticking out of it and a brown sauce drizzled over it haphazardly. It was the earth pony who had prepared this appetizer, and just by looking at it I could tell he was going to be the first one sent home. Blueblood turned his nose up at the dish, refusing to even take a bite of it. Luna smiled weakly and gingerly took a single bite. Celestia took a large bite and continued to eat until it was gone while I simply stared at it.

"Well, Luna? How does it taste?" I asked, grinning sheepishly. I took a fork and stabbed at the dish, grabbing a chunk of the food and put it to my mouth. As I chewed on it, I noticed the flavors meshing together rather nicely, the pine nuts giving it some texture. I took another bite and savored it, noting the way the dandelion mixed with the hay was accentuated by the sugary brown sauce.

"This dish doth not meet with Our approval," Luna complained, frowning. Blueblood snorted in contempt.

"I think it tastes pretty good," I noted. "The flavors mix well and I can taste all four ingredients required. The sugary sauce seems to accentuate the flavors nicely."

Is it me or is it the hormones talking? This does actually taste pretty good...

"You have done well, my little pony," the Solar Princess smiled. "I would have liked a little more pine nut added to it, though."

The second dish was brought to us, this time it was a pale green unicorn mare who had prepared an appetizer using the same four ingredients, but hers features a totally different style. This one was mostly white, a little yellow with green garnish. It looked very dainty on the plate, as though very little of each ingredient had been used -- there didn't appear to be any extra ingredients used in the preparation of the dish. Upon taking a bite, I was pleasantly surprised by a wicked spiciness.

"Whoa, where did that spiciness come from?" I asked, a look of surprise on my face.

Maybe a little too spicy -- good, though...

"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" asked Celestia.

"I have always liked spicy foods, and this is quite good," I replied cheerfully. "Um, Prince, aren't you supposed to be judging the food as well?" I asked, noticing his look of utter disdain for the food placed before him.

I used to act like that when I was a child -- this "Prince" is a full-grown stallion for crying out loud!

"My nephew has always been a picky eater, Amethyst. He will eat only when something strikes his fancy," Celestia noted, a wry smile on her face.

"Or when he's had too much to drink," Luna added playfully, grinning at the stallion who sputtered in protest at her comment.

"Ah, Prince Blueblood! I didn't know you liked to partake of alcohol," I grinned. He blushed at my comment, grinning sheepishly at me.

"I can assure you, my Lady, that I enjoy a good drink in moderation every once in awhile," he stated confidently.

"That's not true, nephew," Celestia deadpanned before breaking out into full laughter when the stallion started protesting more vehemently. He then gave his Auntie a dirty look, causing her to glare sternly at him. He shrank back in his chair in response to her glare.

"I suppose he likes to drink himself sick quite often," I mused aloud, causing both Alicorns to chuckle loudly.

"You don't know the half of it, Amethyst," Celestia replied as she tried to control her chuckling.

Figured as much...

"Stop embarrassing me, Auntie Tia!" the stallion retorted, his pitch having increased nearly an octave.

"Getting drunk and trying to entice all the mares in my Castle to your room is all you ever do around here, nephew," she responded, her tone lowering a bit. "I will not have you trying to woo Amethyst here -- she has a few secrets which will open your eyes."

You're not my type anyway, Blue -- find somepony else! Last thing I want is to mess around with a drunkard!

"She has already told me, Auntie! She's not even a real pony!" he nearly shouted, causing me to glare daggers at him and huff angrily.

Better watch your temper -- now is not the proper time or place for a confrontation with this fool...

"Blueblood, thou must stay thy tongue if thou wishes to have more food brought to you," Luna admonished sharply.

"Speaking of which, it looks like the third chef's dish is being presented to us," I offered as a distraction. The pegasus' dish was a real mess -- I had thought the earth pony's dish was unattractive, but this one looked like it had spent too much time getting burnt. "Um, is it supposed to look like this? I know presentation is about a third of the score, but -- I don't even want to hazard a taste of this dish."

"As a judge, you must at least take a bite of each dish, Amethyst," Celestia admonished tersely, fixing me firmly with her gaze.

"And your nephew? Is he not required to taste each dish as well?" I asked. I took a bite of this one and was surprised to find that the burnt food actually worked. "Not bad, not bad. Could use a little black pepper and a hint of garlic to improve the flavor even more."

What the fuck am I saying? This shit tastes awful!

"My nephew is exempt from that requirement, Amethyst," the Solar Princess replied through a mouthful of her food. Luna dabbed at the dish lightly and took a very small bite before spitting it back out on her plate.

It's not fair to hold me to a certain standard if you're not going to hold your nephew to that same standard...

"Verily, Amethyst, We doth not understand how thou can stomach this food."

Me too, Luna -- me too!

"All these dishes represent new ideas in cuisine, your Majesty -- and even if they don't appear to be very appetizing, I am always curious to see and experience new things," I said, trying to hide my prevarication.

"Thou hast entered the estrus, hast thou not?"

No, really? How could you tell?

I hung my head, my ears drooping. "Yes, Princess Luna -- I'm not too happy about that, but sometimes things happen."

"We overheard thy conversation with Our sister, Amethyst -- thou must find courage within thyself if thou wishes to find favor with Us."

So you're taking her side as well, huh? Niiiice.

The fourth dish was brought, the off-white unicorn mare being the last pony whose dish I sampled. I found the flavors to be most disagreeable, as did Celestia. Luna seemed to enjoy it and Blueblood took a nibble or two. After conferring, we decided the pegasus had failed this challenge and would be departing the castle in short order.

The rest of the evening found us sampling other dishes which were even more exotic than the first ones and ultimately it was the pale green unicorn mare who won the competition. I found a fair number of the remaining dishes to my liking, though my hormones may have been making me hungrier than usual. I thanked the Princesses for their hospitality, as the evening had gotten quite late and all the food had made me rather sleepy. I requested my leave from the table and called on Right Face to escort me back to my quarters.

"I was wondering why you weren't given an opportunity to sample the food," I mused as we trotted down a staircase.

"I am merely your escort, my Lady -- they must like you quite a lot if they offer you such an opportunity. I must admit some of those dishes looked delicious."

"Some of them were -- that earth pony knew how to mix flavors quite well, but needs work on his presentation," I noted.

"You seem to have a great deal of knowledge, my Lady," he said, smiling warmly at me.

"It comes through experience, Right Face. I have learned a great many things over my fifty years," I replied with a wry grin.

"Surely you are not that old, my Lady!" he exclaimed in astonishment.

"Well, you remember what happened earlier in the day, don't you? Must I keep reminding you?"

"Sorry, my Lady -- it's just that -- your beauty entrances me such that I keep forgetting you are more than you appear."

That, or maybe you just want to fuck me again...

"I appreciate the compliment, Right Face -- it looks like we've reached my quarters. I would offer you to stay the night, but you have a curfew, don't you?"

"How would you know about that, my Lady?" he appeared crestfallen when I mentioned that, the tone of his question dripping with disappointment.

I gave a soft chuckle and said, "I have a little military history myself, and know full well any soldier has a curfew, regardless of their rank." His eyes went wide when he heard this, causing me to chuckle a little louder. "Sorry, my friend, I guess it's good night tonight -- but there's always tomorrow!"

Come to think of it, maybe I should let him break curfew -- he did feel really nice inside me...

"Very well then, Lady Amethyst. I bid you good night, but look forward to escorting you tomorrow." He leaned forward for a kiss, which I gave him, but he tried to force his tongue into my mouth. I had to push him away with my fore-hooves.

"Mmmh, Right Face! Please stop that, I'm not ready for that just yet! Please remember what I told you earlier!"

"I'm sorry, my Lady -- perhaps I got a little carried away," he grinned sheepishly.

I know what you want, but I can't give that to you yet, big guy. Maybe later, though...

"I suppose so, but I understand. It's easy to get too anxious when you have temptation right in front of you. See you tomorrow, Right Face. Good night." I closed the door before he had a chance to do anything else, though I heard him say good night to me before he trotted off to his barracks. I trotted over to my bed and climbed into it, falling asleep rather quickly.

It was while I was asleep that somepony crept into my room. Normally, I'm a pretty light sleeper, but this bed was so comfortable that I had gone into a serious stage four deep slumber, and nothing short of an earthquake would roust me from my sleep at that point. Whomever it was snuggled up to me and curled against my body. I could feel warmth from my right, though with my estrus starting to crank up, my natural heat forced me to move the cover off my body. It was when I felt a hoof run up and down my belly that I woke up and turned to see who it was. I lit my horn and cast an illumination spell to get a better look at my visitor.

"Princess Celestia? What are you doing in my room? Why did you snuggle against me?" I asked, shocked she would do such a thing. She smiled softly at me and lit her horn and transformed herself -- slightly. She made herself a little smaller to match my size, but I was shocked to see her develop a certain body part that stallions normally have. "Umm, is that what I think it is?"

The Alicorn grinned mischievously and nodded her head. "Amethyst, I have wanted to do this for a long time -- and while I wouldn't generally impose on my other little ponies, I know you're new here -- and seeing as you're currently experiencing estrus, I suspect you have a certain itch which needs to be scratched." Her smile widened further as she sized me up, though my eyes were focused on her glans. It seemed to be lengthening as she continued to drink in my beauty.

She leaned forward to me and met my muzzle with hers -- she wrapped a wing around me and drew me into her kiss, my mouth opening in anticipation. She pushed her tongue into my mouth and probed the inside as I tried to copy her moves. Our tongues danced and twirled around each others' as I locked my lips with hers. Her years of experience allowed her to maintain the kiss for a very long time, the two of us breathing sharply through our nostrils as we intensified our passion. I watched her close her eyes as she enveloped me in her wings, running her forelegs up and down the sides of my body, then slid a forehoof down to my nethers, finding my sex to be already wet in eager anticipation of what was to come.

As she explored my body with her hooves, I returned the favor, sliding my right foreleg along her barrel, then stroking her new appendage, feeling it become hard as it lengthened a little bit further. I gasped, or at least I tried to gasp, causing Celestia to grin.

"You want it, don't you, Amethyst?" she offered in the sultriest tone I'd ever heard. I nodded my head dumbly, a stupid grin on my face as I felt my sex start winking rapidly, the wetness seeping down my hind legs. She grinned wider now and pushed me down, climbing on top of me. "I'm going to put it in your mouth, Amethyst! Hope you're ready for it!"

My eyes went wide with fear -- I had never had something that big or that long pushed into my mouth, let alone deep into my throat. Without waiting for a response, she used her magic to guide her fully erect glans into my mouth and pushed hard against the resistance I was putting up. I could feel my gag reflex kicking into overdrive, trying to expel the offending intrusion.

"Relax, Amethyst -- I will ensure you can breathe -- relax your throat! It will stop hurting if you --"

Tears streamed down my cheeks as I tried to accept her very rude offer. I did my best to comply with her demand, trying to relax my throat, but my brain was screaming at me to get the damned thing out. By some seeming miracle, she pulled out of my mouth and gave me a few moments to recover. She noticed my tears and softened her expression towards me.

"My apologies, Amethyst -- I should not have forced myself on you like that --"

"If you would be kind enough to let me go at my own pace, I might be willing to suck on it -- but this -- heat -- is making me -- do funny things," I observed. Celestia gave me a demure smile.

"I understand, Amethyst -- I apologize for trying to rush you," she offered warmly. She rose to her hooves and was about to leave when I pleaded with her to stop. "Yes, my little pony?"

"I'm not ready for you to leave just yet -- please, lay on the bed for me," I requested. I saw her smile widen as she turned around to face me, slowly trotting back to the bed.

"What did you have in mind, Amethyst?" she asked, sporting a very impish grin.

"I want to try something, your Majesty," I began.

"You may drop the formality while we are in this room, Amethyst -- but please tell me, I am curious to see what you want to do," she said as she climbed onto the bed and laid on her back, her wings laying flat.

"That's the ideal position, Celestia," I grinned as I climbed on top of her, positioning my hindquarters over her penis. I maneuvered myself in such a way as to guide it into my pussy, but she had other ideas.

"Ah-ah, you don't get to do that just yet," she giggled. "Turn around and let me taste you!"

I followed her instruction, turning carefully so I wouldn't injure her wings. Her smile widened as she took in the sight and scent of my sex. I heard her giggle a little more as she saw it winking, then gasped as she brought her tongue up to it, licking the dripping wet fleshy folds. I moaned in ecstasy as she nibbled my love button, which had responded to the expertise of the Alicorn's ministrations. Her glans had returned to its full tumescence and began bobbing as her excitement and arousal began to increase -- I was transfixed by the sight and noticed pre-cum beginning to ooze from the tip. I gently cradled it in my forehooves and lowered my mouth to it, doing my best to wrap my lips around it without abrading it with my teeth.

"Mmmmmh! Amethyst!" she cooed as I began bobbing my head up and down, taking just the first few inches or so of it into my mouth. I forced myself to stifle a giggle at her reaction and continued to go further, taking more of it into my throat. The taste was not an unpleasant one, the sensation something I was beginning to enjoy. The fact that the Princess was licking and sucking on my pussy helped me get into the mood even further and I dared myself to try to take the entirety of her glans into my throat.

"Aaaaaah! Keep going! That feels -- uhhhhh!" she moaned as I found myself able to take it all, my lips making it all the way down to her ball sack, the musk seeming to drive me into a state of frenzy. I sped up my movement, amazed at my ability, but driven to go faster by her erotic moans and gasps, her breathing becoming more ragged as her body began to tense up. I pulled all the way back, letting her penis make a popping sound as it came out of my mouth.

"Amethyst! Why must you tease me like that?" she asked between her huffing. I giggled again in response. "You were doing so well, too!"

"Gimme a minute, Celestia," I said softly as I planted a kiss on the tip of her member. I moaned as her breath against the wet lips of my pussy gave me a little shiver, which elicited a giggle from her.

"Come on, Amethyst! I'm waiting!" she moaned, dragging out the vowels as she tried to compel me to continue.

"You must really be enjoying this, eh, Celestia?" I giggled as I lightly stroked her schlong, watching it bob back and forth. A little more pre-cum leaked out of it, so I leaned forward to lick it, sliding my tongue along the rock-hard shaft, causing her to moan very loudly and deeply. "I take that as a yes," I giggled before putting it back into my mouth and very slowly sliding up and down. This must have been driving her crazy, as she slobbered her tongue all over my sex, nibbling a bit harder on my clit, and deeply tonguing my tightly puckered anus. She took a moment to catch her breath, but used the opportunity to say something which she should have saved for a time when her dick wasn't in my mouth.

"Oooohhhh, yessss, I am! I can't wait to fuck you in your tiny little plot hole!" she giggled. My eyes went wide as saucers, the pupils diminishing to pin-pricks when she said that. My gag reflex kicking into high gear, but with her shaft still deep in my throat, I very rapidly pulled back and puked on my bed, a fair amount of it landing on her body. As shocked as I was by her statement, I was mortified by what I had just done.

"I - I - I'm t-terribly s-s-sorry about that, y-your M-m-majesty," I stuttered. I got off her and tried to clean it up, but she also rose to her hooves.

"Amethyst, I am the one who owes you an apology," she said softly as she trotted into my bathroom, turning on the water. I trotted in after her, causing her to smile at me. "I suppose I can wash you off if you'd like," she smiled. "And you can wash me off as well!"

"What about your wings, your Majesty?"

"I will teach you how to preen them, Amethyst!" she giggled. "And you can still drop the formality -- as long as it's just you and me here in your room, I am Celestia to you -- given enough time, perhaps I might even be willing to let you call me by the name my sister uses in very casual settings."

The water had reached the desired temperature as the Alicorn, still in her reduced size, climbed into the tub and beckoned me in as well. The water felt good, easing a little of the discomfort my estrus was causing. The Princess rubbed her hooves into my coat in small circles, the way I had done her earlier when I was still in my human form. I moaned in pleasure at her ministrations, relishing the attention she was giving me.

"Oh, Celestia, you spoil me by doing that," I cooed softly, smiling warmly at her.

"I am just returning the favor you did me earlier, Amethyst -- but I expect you to massage me again in a few days, as a human no less -- and given the way you performed for me, I look forward to the opportunity to experience that level of pleasure again!"

She produced a bottle of shampoo from somewhere and began working it into my coat, mane and tail, lathering me up profusely. Her gentle touch amazed me and practically had me sobbing in joy, tears streaming down my cheeks. Her smile faltered when she witnessed this and a frown of concern made itself evident.

"Amethyst, why do you cry? Does this not feel good?"

"It does, your Majesty, but it's just that -- what you are doing for me brings back memories of happier times in my life. Truthfully, I don't know if I've ever felt happier just now with the way you are touching me than I have in my entire life Forgive me for crying, Celestia, but I have heard that one should never hide tears of happiness."

The Alicorn turned me around to face her, but did so ever so gently. She gazed into my eyes and gave me a very sincere smile. "Amethyst, it is a rare thing for somepony of your character to say such things -- and truly, it impresses me to hear that from you," she intoned softly. Her smile widened as she met my muzzle with hers as she once again drew me into a kiss. This one did not have the same level of passion and frenzy as the first one -- this was a far more gentle kiss, one which seemed to speak of a kindness and generosity I had not known in a very long time. I tried my best to prolong it, as the emotion behind this particular kiss was one of belonging, the sort of kiss that two lovers who share a very deep bond of affection for one another would give.

"Celestia, are you trying to make me fall in love with you? Because ..." I began, but let my words trail off as she raised a hoof to my lips.

"Sshhh," she admonished softly before kissing me again.

Chapter 5 -- A Slight Change of Plans

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 5 -- A Slight Change of Plans

After we toweled off, Celestia returned to her bedchamber, but not before using her magic to clean my bed for me, a gesture of kindness I deeply thanked her for.

"I look forward to our next encounter," she grinned as she departed my room. I climbed back into my bed to get some more sleep, but the warm feeling of reassurance I received from the Alicorn made me feel happy to be here. I slept soundly the rest of the night.

I was rudely awakened by a loud pounding at my door -- the bed had lulled me into a very sound sleep and wrapped itself around me in an attempt to prevent me from leaving its warm embrace.

"Lady Amethyst! I am here to escort you to breakfast, unless you wish to miss that meal," Right Face shouted through the closed door. I groaned audibly and turned over, using my telekinesis to open the door for him.

"Ugh! Right Face, this bed is so comfortable! I don't wanna get up from it!"

"I know the feeling all too well, my Lady," he chuckled as he trotted over to me. He sniffed the air a few times and grinned a little wider. "Ah, so you're in heat, eh? Perhaps I can help you with that."

"You said breakfast, Right Face. Maybe later we can do something, but after what happened to me last night, I could use a little more food," I noted as I groggily rose to my hooves and rubbed sleep from my eyes. I glanced in the mirror to see my mane completely disheveled, so I levitated a brush over and ran it through my mane in an attempt to make myself at least a little presentable.

"We must hurry, my Lady -- you have to be at the Library by nine, so you have little time to waste." He turned to the door and exited, beckoning me to follow. Hastily, I tossed the brush back over to the vanity and closed the door behind me, falling into line behind the teal stallion.

It would have been nice if my room had been placed closer to the dining hall...

"Remind me to ask Princess Celestia for a room closer to the dining hall next time I see her," I muttered as we sped up the pace of our trot to a canter, making it to the dining hall in about five minutes. Fortunately, my new pony body was more than up for the task and I found myself giggling with the swiftness of our short trek. Princess Celestia was waiting at her end of the table and motioned for me to take a seat beside her, a serene smile on her face.

"I trust you slept well last night, Amethyst?" she asked softly. A plate of Prench toast sat on the table in front of her, the sight of her food making my mouth water in eager anticipation. She noticed this and had a server bring a similar plate for me.

"Yes, your Majesty, and thanks for breakfast -- I have one question, though -- why give me a room so far away from the dining hall?"

"I assume you have taken your beauty into consideration, Amethyst? If nothing else, I desire that you retain that beauty and not let it deteriorate by consuming more food than you can burn off with the scant amount of exercise you will receive as a result of the duties I have assigned you," she explained.

"I see -- you wish for me to remain svelte, your Majesty," I noted, the Alicorn nodding her head in affirmation, her smile widening ever so slightly. "I thank you for your concern over my figure and I will endeavor to maintain it for you."

"I take pleasure in seeing all of my little ponies looking their best for me," she smiled warmly. "Especially you."

I blushed deeply at her comment. "Thank you, your Majesty -- I am curious to know more about the library here and who I will be working with."

"My apologies, Amethyst, but since you're currently experiencing estrus, you will not be working in the library -- your pheromones are quite strong and would prove to be a distraction not only for the patrons of the library, but the librarian as well."

"So, um -- what will I be doing?"

"I will request you accompany me for awhile -- there are a few things I would like to show you myself. Your escort gave you a pretty detailed tour of my Castle, but there are certain areas I would like you to see, places he cannot go."

"But -- if he is not allowed to go there, why me?"

Celestia smiled warmly at me. "I like you, Amethyst -- there is something special about you. It's not every day a human visits my realm, and especially one who is as talented as you."

I blushed again, causing the Alicorn to chuckle. "You flatter me, your Majesty," I opined softly.

"Not at all, Amethyst. I see within you great potential, which I hope to unlock. You have no idea of just how special you are, do you?"

"I used to think I was special, your Majesty -- but that was a long time ago. I learned that there were others who were smarter, stronger, faster, and far more talented than me and it took me a long time to accept the fact that I would be no better than mediocre at best," I sighed. I hung my head, my ears lowered.

Celestia sidled over to me and wrapped her right wing around me. "Amethyst, your opinion of yourself is prejudiced by your presumption of inadequacy by comparing your talents to others of your former species. You should not be so quick to judge yourself by measuring your talents against those you perceived to be superior to you. You are now a pony, and you now possess extraordinary talent -- you will need guidance to unlock that potential, and I would be pleased to be the one who guides you."

"What about Twilight, your Majesty?"

"She is my student, but since she now resides in Ponyville, she sends me weekly friendship reports on the progress of her studies. I was her guide while she was here in my Castle before I sent her to Ponyville, and since she's no longer here, I feel a certain longing for companionship -- and here you are! I trust you would be willing to accept my offer?"

"It would be an honor, your Majesty," I replied softly. I tried to bow, but her embrace was strong enough to prevent me from doing so.

"That was exactly what I was hoping to hear, Amethyst! Please finish eating, there is much to be done." She released her hold on me at this point and allowed me to finish my breakfast. I savored the food, noting the very high quality and superior taste.

"Your chef is masterful at making Prench toast," I observed, flashing a smile. "Thanks again for the food, it was delicious!"

"I have only the finest chefs working in my Castle, Amethyst, and you are quite welcome. Please follow me, I shall show you around." She rose to her hooves and began trotting out of the dining hall, her long strides causing me to quicken my pace to keep up with her.

"Begging your pardon, your Majesty, but won't my pheromones cause distractions among the ponies we pass?" I asked with a small amount of trepidation.

"I have ways of dealing with that, Amethyst," she grinned, lighting her horn and casting some odd magic on me. I felt a slight tingling in my nethers, causing me to shudder for a moment, then the sensation subsided. I exhaled a sigh of relief and resumed trotting behind the Alicorn.

"So what did you do?"

"I have certain magics I can employ -- that one masks your pheromones a little," she replied nonchalantly. "And even though this spell diminishes the intensity of the scent you're giving off, it doesn't dispel it completely."

"But it didn't cause the other symptoms of estrus to go away, though," I noted almost glumly. "I can still feel that warmth back there -- it's causing more than a little discomfort, your Majesty."

"Would you like to go back to being a human? Are you willing to concede defeat already? I would hope you choose not to disappoint me, Amethyst," she cautioned, giving me a stern look.

"No, your Majesty -- I will tough it out for you -- but my id is screaming for attention again," I mused.

"What does that mean?" she queried, a puzzled look on her face. She had stopped trotting and turned to face me.

"It means I want to be rutted, your Majesty -- and rutted long, hard, and fast," I said almost meekly, blushing deeply at having made this admission. This elicited a wide smile from the Alicorn and just the faintest hint of a blush on her cheeks.

"I believe I can arrange that, Amethyst," she chuckled and resumed trotting, nodding her head at me to continue following her.

"I would like to apologize again for last night, your Majesty," I offered as I cantered behind her.

"There will be tonight, my dear Amethyst," she replied softly, glancing back at me with a big smile. "Truthfully, I look forward to enjoying our activities tonight."

"I do too, your Majesty, though I'm not ready to experience anal sex yet," I said, a bit of trepidation in my voice.

"I apologize for making you uncomfortable, Amethyst. Trust me, I will not do anything to hurt you," she said warmly to reassure me. Her words had a comforting effect on me as I quickened my pace and nuzzled against her neck, a smile on my face. She responded by returning my nuzzle, smiling very warmly, eliciting an involuntary squee from me.

"Uh, sorry, I've never done that before," I said, blushing deeply.

"That just lets me know you are one of my little ponies, Amethyst!" she chuckled softly, her smile widening even further. "Come, there is much to see and do." She resumed trotting with me following her until we reached the Throne Room. There were a number of ponies standing in line waiting to petition the Solar Princess, who smiled and greeted them warmly before entering the room and sitting on her throne. "Amethyst, you may sit on this cushion next to me so you may observe the proceedings."

The next few hours were a blur of various ponies and dignitaries having their concerns addressed and adjudicated by the Princess. Every so often, I would ask a question and she would smile at me and explain certain things to me -- the information was new to me and gave me certain insights into how pony society functioned, though it was not dissimilar to human societies. Eventually, it was time to recess for lunch and the Alicorn had her Royal Guard inform the line of ponies waiting at the doors. She beckoned me to follow her back to the Dining Hall and once again I was forced to match her quick pace -- she would occasionally smile at me as she watched me canter to match her trot, amazing me with her long strides.

The Dining Hall was a flurry of activity as a substantial number of nobles were having lunch as well. Upon seeing me, some of them expressed their contempt by pointing their muzzles up toward the ceiling and looking at me askance. I glared at them, narrowing my eyes. Celestia cleared her throat to get their attention.

"Ahem, I would like to present Amethyst Shadow to you -- she is to be treated to the same level of respect you have for me," the Alicorn announced, amplifying her voice slightly so everypony could hear. A fair number of them began murmuring in protest, causing her to repeat herself a bit louder. They silenced themselves, but again gave me stares of contempt. I noticed Prince Blueblood among them and made eye contact with him. He winked at me, offering a faint smile.

"Looks like your nephew is here, your Majesty," I observed, gazing in his direction.

"Of course, Amethyst -- he never misses a meal around here," the Alicorn replied coolly. He rose from his chair and trotted over to us.

"Auntie Tia, I would like to apologize to Lady Amethyst here -- um, I'm rather sorry for saying what I did earlier," he offered, his head and ears slightly lowered. My expression was one of surprise.

"I accept your apology, Prince. I must admit, I'm rather curious to know why though," I responded.

"Auntie Lulu had a talk with me last night, my lady." He seemed to be avoiding eye contact with me.

"I thought her name was Luna, Blueblood," I opined, stifling a giggle as I saw Celestia sport a frown.

"My nephew has bad manners, Amethyst," the Alicorn replied with a fair amount of annoyance in her tone. "Blueblood, please remember that even though you're a Prince, you must show my sister and I a little more respect. One other thing -- do you not remember what I told you yesterday about trying to woo this purple unicorn?" she asked as her gaze hardened toward the stallion, causing him to sulk back to his chair.

"Yes, Auntie Tia," he grumbled loudly enough for her to hear him as he left.

"Your Majesty, I think he actually was trying to be sincere toward me," I offered.

"Perhaps he is, though I would caution you against any romantic involvement with him -- unless all you really want is for him to rut you," she mused. My expression brightened a bit.

"Hmmmmm! I can just picture him ramming that long hard cock of his into my dripping wet pussy!" I cooed softly, causing the Alicorn to blush slightly. "Oops, did I just say that out loud in front of all the other nobles in here?" I asked meekly, offering a very sheepish grin. Some of them glared at me in disapproval. A number of the mares fainted upon hearing me state my desire.

"Well, Amethyst, I'm not one to disappoint you, so I shall return shortly with my nephew. I'm certain that's exactly what he has in mind for you," Celestia noted, though a sly grin crept across her features, a slight giggle escaping her lips as she rose to her hooves and approached the Prince. Upon seeing her approaching, he cowered in his chair until he saw her expression.

"What is it, Auntie Tia?" he asked almost fearfully.

"Lady Amethyst has a special request of you, Blueblood," she replied, smiling demurely.

"What does she want?" he asked, a mix of puzzlement and annoyance coloring his features.

"Why not ask her yourself, nephew?" she asked, her smile widening into an impish grin.

"I'm not sure I want to find out -- but perhaps I should, anyway," he mused as he rose from his chair and slowly trotted over to me, his Auntie beside him as she returned to her seat at the table. The stallion strode up to me, a puzzled look on his face.

"Your Auntie has told me you might be interested in rutting me," I averred, though my tone was rather soft. I smiled politely at him. My direct approach seemed to have caused his resolve to weaken somewhat.

"Um, well, yes, that's right, my lady," he responded, pausing between words as he tried to gather up some degree of courage.

I turned my attention to the Solar Princess, smiling demurely at her. "Your Majesty, is there a room close by where your nephew and I can obtain a degree of privacy?" I asked, my smile widening a bit.

"Lady Amethyst! Surely you can't mean -- right now?" the Prince asked in astonishment.

Yes, that's right, Blueblood! I'm feeling really horny and I want this every bit as much as you do!

"Don't get cold hooves on me now, Prince," I chided, allowing a slight giggle to escape my lips. "Princess Celestia tells me it's been a little while since you last got lucky with a mare..."

The stallion's face turned beet red with embarrassment as he began sputtering gibberish from his mouth, his words practically incoherent. I chuckled at his reaction, causing him to frown and glare at me in disapproval.

"You weren't really being serious with me, were you, Amethyst?" he asked, a hurt-sounding tone to his voice. He sulked and began trotting back toward his chair.

"Blueblood -- don't leave just yet. I know you've been rejected by quite a few other mares and your Auntie has actively discouraged others from even speaking to you -- but I really was being sincere. I have desires as well, and I have a curiosity about you -- this is why I offered you an opportunity to indulge that desire you have," I explained, offering yet another warm smile. He trotted back over to me and smiled in return.

"My lady, I would be honored to provide you with whatever pleasure you desire," he responded softly, his words striking in their sincerity. "Auntie Tia, we need a more discreet location if you would be so kind."

The white Alicorn snickered softly. "Certainly, nephew -- Amethyst, if you would be so kind as to follow me, please," she intoned softly, trotting past the two of us and motioning us to follow her. The assembled nobles began grumbling and complaining about the preferential treatment I was receiving. They cast jealous glances at us as we trotted past them -- and seeing this, I returned a smug smirk of satisfaction before we left the dining hall.

Celestia led us down a hallway then down a flight of stairs. Blueblood cast nervous glances around to make sure no one he knew would see him in my company -- he had an image to maintain, even if it wasn't all that good a one. My expression was one of mild bemusement at the Prince's nervousness, though there was a part of me that was hoping he would have enough stamina and length to satisfy my needs. My nethers were starting to warm up again and I wasn't exactly sure how much longer I could keep my state of arousal in check. We entered Blueblood's bedchamber at this point.

"Auntie Tia, I was hoping you'd provide a different chamber," the white stallion pouted.

"You've been wanting to show your bedchamber to a number of mares in my Castle, nephew. Here's your chance!" she grinned impishly. He continued to pout in protest. I took quick stock of his bedchamber and was somewhat surprised to see images of a number of fairly attractive mares adorning his walls.

"If you don't mind my asking, Blueblood, are you still a virgin?" I asked, flashing a wicked grin. He blushed furiously in response. "Ah, so this will be your first time ever with a mare -- it would appear to me as though you've been dreaming of such an opportunity for a very long time! Princess Celestia, I believe I may need the entire afternoon to break him in, so to speak," I offered, a broad smile on my face.

"Go easy on him, Amethyst -- don't want him to get spoiled on you now," the Alicorn chuckled softly.

"Of course, your Majesty! I hope to meet you again for dinner -- and perhaps I might be inclined to provide your nephew with a night of passion if he performs well enough for me," I replied confidently. She smiled at me and left, closing the door behind her. I turned my attention to the white stallion, still blushing from embarrassment at having me in his bedchamber.

"Ah -- Amethyst -- um, I don't know -- I've never done this before --" he stuttered as I approached him slowly. Celestia's spell masking my pheromones expired at this point and the fire raging inside me starting building up again as I gazed upon the Prince with a hunger in my eyes. I licked my lips lustily at him as I met his muzzle with mine, kissing him on his lips. He backed away from me slowly, a look of apprehension on his face -- he bumped his hindquarters against his bed and fell back on it, his haunches opening wide for me, giving me a very good look at his sheath. He blushed even deeper now, his face going beet red as he saw my gaze travel down his midsection and rest on his sheath and ball sack.

"Hmm, you need a little prodding," I muttered as I ran a hoof down his barrel, letting the tip of my forehoof rest against the opening of his sheath. "Come on out, little fellow -- say hi to me," I chuckled as I ran my forehoof back and forth over his sheath in an attempt to coax it out. He mewled in protest, but his breath coming in short gasps spoke volumes about the effect my attention was having on him. "Come on, I don't bite!" I giggled as his member slowly began poking its way out of its cave, lengthening as I continued to lavish my attention on it. I gave it a quick lick with my tongue to get a taste.

"Who cleans you, Blue? You need to get them to do a better job on "Mister Happy" here," I chuckled, eliciting a whimper from the stallion. "From the taste, I'd say you masturbate quite often."

"Please -- please my Lady -- don't tell anypony about that," he whimpered as my affection had caused his member to reach its full length and firmness, a small dribble of pre-cum beginning to leak from the flaring head. I licked the flared end with my tongue to get another taste, causing him to groan and his member to jump a little, eliciting a light chuckle from me.

"Hmm, not bad -- I'll bet since this is your first time, I can make you cum in less than a minute," I giggled. His eyes widened a little as I knelt between his haunches to take his shaft in my mouth. The acrid taste caused me to wrinkle my nose a little, but my horny state pushed that minor detail aside as I opened my mouth wider and took his length in, going past the medial ring on the first try. My experience with Celestia the night before had prepared me for this and I was hoping to show this Prince something special.

I bobbed my head up and down, allowing the tip to make a popping sound as it left my mouth for a very brief moment before taking it all in all the way down to his sheath. My sex was dripping wet with my love juice as I imagined the feeling of that long shaft buried deep in it. Again I let his glans slip out of my mouth and ran my tongue along its length, grinning wickedly at him. He returned my grin with one of his own, though his expression showed him to be in a state of bliss. I returned to taking his length into my throat and my earlier boast proved correct as I brought him to climax in just under a minute.

"Mmmh, Amethyst! That -- that -- unnnnh!" he grunted as he spent his seed in my mouth. I gulped it down as best I could, but he seemed to have quite a load as I felt the warm fluid filling up my mouth. I pulled back, a little bit of his cum squirting on my face, which I wiped with my right forehoof. He moaned and laid on his back. "Ooooh, that was gooood! Thank you!"

"I was just trying to get you warmed up -- I had no idea you were that sensitive!" I chuckled. "Looks like you need quite a bit more practice, but I'm willing to teach you." I laid on the bed next to him, trying to get him to look at me. He turned my way, though he was still blushing, a smile gracing his lips.

"My Lady, if you continue to lavish such affection upon me..." he said just barely above a whisper.

"I hope to transform you into a proper stallion, Blue," I chuckled softly, giving him a quick kiss on his lips. He turned up his nose at the taste of his seed, eliciting a giggle from me.

"What did I tell you, Blue? You need to clean yourself more thoroughly," I chided gently, absentmindedly stroking his flaccid member with my left forehoof. I was amazed to see it respond to my touch quickly and grinned in approval at him. "You seem ready for another round," I observed, a slight giggle escaping my lips as I climbed onto the bed and straddled his body. The fact that he was still laying flat on his back gave me the perfect opportunity to guide his erect glans into my love tunnel. I had felt that need growing while I was sucking his dick and now I was going to fulfill that need! His eyes went wide with fear again as I mounted him.

"Relax, Blue, I don't bite! You've always dreamed about this, haven't you? I hope to make this as pleasurable for you as it will be for me!" I giggled as I made eye contact with him, lowering my haunches onto his midsection as his dick slid effortlessly into my sopping wet pussy. "If we make a mess on your bed, I apologize for that," I said softly as I began rocking my hips back and forth, feeling his member sliding back and forth inside me. "Mmmh, Blue! Work with me here!"

"Tell me, hanh, what to, hanh, hanh, do, hanh, my Lady!" he gasped as he let me ride him. I grunted with my exertion, my forehooves on his chest, then lowered my muzzle to meet his again. I gave him another quick kiss and giggled.

"Push back against me, rock your hips in rhythm with mine, Blue -- you can do it!" I exhorted in an attempt to goad him into further action. He seemed to respond rather well, bucking his hips forcefully. "Mmmh, Blue! You're so strong!" I giggled, eliciting a smile from him. I moaned and grunted as his efforts were starting to push me closer to the edge of release, my passion building again. "Mmmh, getting close, Blue -- keep going!"

"Hnhh, hanh, ooooh, yessss! Mmmh! Unnnh!" he groaned as his body tensed up under me, stiffening like a board. His breathing came in short sharp bursts as he began pumping faster, increasing the force of his thrusts against me.

"Mmmmmmh, Blue, don't cum too fast -- I know this is your first time," I moaned as he sped up his movement. I sped mine up to match his rhythm, the two of us rocking his bed against the wall making loud thumping noises as the headboard hit the wall. We both giggled at this, though I wondered if there were somepony else in the adjoining room. My body began tensing up as I allowed the sensation to overtake me -- this Prince was pretty good for a novice, but I think he must have spent all his stamina as he slowed his pace down considerably. "You run out of stamina, Blue? Let me work it then," I offered softly. He grinned sheepishly as I redoubled my efforts to push both of us over the edge. I silently thanked Celestia for providing me with such an athletic body as I sped up my motion yet again, eliciting some soft whimpers from the stallion.

"Unnnnh! Aaaaah! AAAAHH!" he moaned as I worked him harder, finally feeling him release his load. I moaned and grunted with my exertion, obtaining my release as well. The wetness of his jism along with my love juices mixing and flowing from my sopping wet pussy along with the wetness of his haunches had me sliding back and forth, though with my orgasm I leaned forward on him, resting my weight on his barrel. I grinned at him and gave him another quick kiss on his lips.

"Mmmh, you liked that, huh, Blue?" I giggled and gave him yet another quick kiss before rolling over onto my back and laying beside him on his bed so I could catch my breath. He leaned over and grinned at me.

"My Lady, I never thought it would feel that good!" he chuckled softly. He gazed into my eyes for a moment before he spoke again. "Lady Amethyst, I must admit I never tire of looking into your eyes," he said, just barely above a whisper. "I hope I can gaze into them like this for a long time to come."

"You will have to earn that honor, Blue, but I understand how you feel," I replied softly, my smile diminishing somewhat. He rose to his hooves before giving me an almost pleading look in his eyes.

"My Lady! Please! What must I do?" he asked. "I would be willing to do almost anything to earn your favor!"

"Oh, Blue, there's so much you need to learn -- but I am willing to teach you," I replied warmly.

"I am quite eager to learn, my Lady!" he said, almost giggling.

"Good! Let's take a shower and freshen up so we will be at least somewhat presentable when we have dinner," I suggested. I looked around his bedchamber to see if there was access to a bathroom but didn't see it. "Um, where's your bathroom?"

"Ah, follow me, my Lady!" he giggled as he trotted prettily towards a corner of his room. He lit his horn and magically opened a door I hadn't seen to reveal his bathroom, then quickly hid a few magazines when he caught sight of them. I caught a glimpse of one of the magazines and a sly smile crept across my face before I returned to my normal smile. "Umm, you didn't see those magazines, right?" he asked sheepishly.

"Nope, didn't see those magazines at all, not the ones with the sexy mares in them, nope," I tittered. I watched him turn three shades of red before he regained his composure, eliciting more laughter from me. "Sorry, Blue, I couldn't resist," I grinned.

"Hmph, I should have known better," he muttered as he turned on the shower. I trotted into the bathroom and got into the tub first, giving him a sly smile again.

"Would you care to soap me up?" I asked in a sultry voice, the water making my mane and tail lay flat against my body. The sight of me with my mane down must have triggered something in him as he smiled very broadly and nodded his head before hopping into the tub, taking a position behind me.

"But of course, my Lady!" he grinned, using his telekinesis to levitate a bottle of shampoo over and pour some on my back. I shuddered at the coldness of the shampoo and complained about this, causing him to apologize for his thoughtlessness, then ask for my forgiveness.

"Who are you and what have you done with Prince Blueblood?" I giggled. He gave me a confused look. "Just work some of that shampoo into my hair, please -- we can worry about trivialities later."

"Oh, okay," he said almost dumbly as he started working his hooves into my coat, lathering my body up quite nicely. It appeared as though he was starting to get aroused again by doing this -- I felt his member rubbing against my hindquarters, causing me to tense up a little.

"Mmmmh, Blue, if you want, you can mount me and slide that thing in me again," I cooed softly to him, causing him to blush furiously.

"I -- I'm sorry, my Lady," he stuttered, backing away a little but continuing to massage the shampoo into my coat.

"Mmmh! Come on! I need it!" I stated a bit louder and backed up against him, forcing him against the wall behind him. He reared up onto his hind legs almost instinctively, his weight forcing him forward onto my back. "That's right, Blue! Now you can -- unnnh! Yeah!" I moaned as his now erect glans slid effortlessly into my pussy.

"I -- I didn't know you had such an appetite, my Lady," he observed, grinning sheepishly at my forwardness. My hormones had taken control of me again and with him filling me up again, I allowed a moan of contentment to escape my lips as a response to his statement. This seemed to embolden him a little as he began slowly thrusting into me, gently at first, then working up a little more speed and force as I bucked my hips against him. The water continued to flow from the shower head, the warmth and wetness adding to my level of arousal.

"Unnnh, Blue! Mmmmh! Yesss!" I hissed as I sped up my movements in an attempt to get him to go faster. "Come on, Blue! Fuck me harder! Faster! Fuck my pussy!" I shouted to goad him further. I glanced at him and saw him blush at my vulgarity, then grimace as he put more effort into it, grunting with his exertion, closing his eyes tightly as he allowed the sensation to envelop him.

"Feels good, huh, Blue?" I giggled between gasps for breath, speeding up again.

"Hanh, hanh, Amethst, hanh, hanh, oooh, yeah!" he grunted as he put even more speed and force behind his thrusting, his body tensing up as he neared his peak. I reveled in the sensation of his long hard cock sliding in and out of my pussy, the feeling of his medial ring rubbing against my clit sending shock waves into my brain, causing me to moan and gasp as I neared my release, my body tensing up in rhythm with his.

"AAAAAHHH! YESSSSSS! UNNNNH!" he moaned as he shot his load, his member pushing up against my cervix, his hot jizz spurting and squirting inside me.

"OOOOOH! SHHHHHHHIIT! YESS!" I moaned as I surrendered to my orgasm, the intensity causing me to clench my eyes shut as I rode my orgasm out. "Mmmmh, Blue! You're starting to get good at this!" I giggled. "Can you soap me up some more?"

"Hnnnh, okay, my Lady, I will," he replied, gasping a little himself as he tried to catch his breath. "You shouldn't spoil me like this," he chuckled as he soaped me up again, then rinsed it out, working his hooves through my mane and tail. "You are so lovely, my Lady," he intoned softly, almost cooing the words into my ears. If he could have seen my face, he would have seen me blushing deeply at his comment. "Okay, I think the soap's all rinsed out now."

"Please, allow me to return the favor, Blue," I offered. I saw him smile then turn around for me as we switched positions under the shower. I soaped him up thoroughly, paying special attention to his glans, lavishing soft affection on it. He whimpered again as I worked my magic on it, bringing him to another release of his sperm before the water went cold on us. We got out and toweled off, then I ran a brush through my mane and tail to make myself look presentable. He gave me an almost expectant look.

"Um, my Lady, if you would be so kind -- would you, um ... brush my mane and tail for me?" he asked, grinning sheepishly.

"What, you can't do that yourself? I guess I can, because you asked nicely, Blue," I stated as I sized him up and worked the brush through his mane and tail, styling it up nicely. Upon seeing his reflection in the mirror, he smiled broadly at me.

"Thank you so much, my Lady! You do amazing work!" he cooed, eliciting another blush from me.

"Thanks for the compliment, Blue, but I think you might want to learn how to do this yourself some time," I responded. "Isn't it about time for us to get dinner?"

"If you're willing to teach me, I'm willing to learn," he replied, motioning me to follow him as he trotted towards his room's exit door. I had to quicken my pace a little to match him, surprised by his new level of energy.

"What's the hurry, Blue?" I asked as we trotted down the corridor.

"I don't know if you saw what time it is, but we spent a little too much time in the shower -- we're going to be late if we don't hurry," he explained, his pace quickening just a little more. We made it to the Dining Hall in less than two minutes, noting the nobles once again as well as Princess Celestia, seated at the head of the table, a serene smile on her face. She beckoned me to her side once again.

"So, Amethyst, how was he?" the Alicorn asked, a sly grin on her face. "I hope he didn't disappoint you."

"He performed remarkably well for a novice, your Majesty," I replied warmly. "He was able to scratch that itch I had."

"Is it your desire to spend the night with him?" she asked.

"If that's okay with you, Princess." I gave her a big smile.

"I have no problem with that -- perhaps you're just the right pony for him," she mused, a wry smile gracing her lips as she raised her glass of red wine to them. I gave her a curious glance, but figured the wine was for relaxation after a long tedious day of Solar Court.

"Perhaps so, your Majesty -- but perhaps it's also the estrus and hormones over-riding my better judgment. Even so, he needs more practice and a little more polishing before he becomes a true stallion," I noted. "I'm surprised he hasn't come over here yet."

The Prince seemed to sense that he was being talked about, so he sauntered over to us to find out what we were talking about. His steps seemed livelier, a smile on his face. The assembled nobles took note of this, expressing some curiosity as to why he wasn't acting like his normally condescending self.

"Auntie Tia, I understand you didn't want me wooing Lady Amethyst here -- but -- she has given me a wonderful gift," he stated almost reverently. His statement elicited a smile from the Alicorn.

"Amethyst and I have been discussing the possibility that you might indeed be the right pony for her and that she might be the right pony for you, nephew," she mused softly, causing him to blush and smile even wider.

"Your Majesty, might I posit that I should probably spend more time with him so I can get to know him better? Truthfully, the fact that we've only spent an afternoon together is not even close to enough time for me to know what he's really like," I protested mildly.

"Indeed, that sounds like a good idea, Amethyst," she replied.

"My Lady, I would be honored to spend more time with you!" Blueblood offered quite eagerly. Some of the nobles expressed a degree of disgust at this, muttering to each other about the unseemliness of such a union, though others chuckled at the prospect.

"Your Majesty, if I might request a salad? I'm a little hungry, but not very much so," I stated in an attempt to change the subject.

"Of course, Amethyst," she replied and called for a server to bring me a vegetable salad and a few sandwiches for her nephew. We were also treated to a glass of white wine. While we were eating, Princess Luna stopped in for a bite to eat before beginning Lunar Court. Her expression was one of puzzlement as she trotted over to us.

"We were hoping we wouldst see thee once again, Amethyst," the indigo Alicorn mused, smiling softly.

"Things have a way of changing sometimes, your Majesty," I replied, bowing my head to her.

"Tia, wherefore is thy nephew here?"

"I believe Amethyst and Blueblood may have a mutually beneficial relationship beginning," the Solar Princess noted, grinning slyly to her sister, who frowned upon hearing this.

"Tia, we strongly request that thou not allow this union continue -- we wouldst desire that thou transformest Amethyst into her previous form! We desire the special attention he was able to provide us!" she protested somewhat loudly, though at least not in her Royal Canterlot Voice.

"Sister, this is not about your needs -- there is a greater purpose at work here, one which trumps your desires. Trust me, Lulu, the time will come when you will receive what you desire," Celestia stated, flashing an impish grin. Luna softened her gaze and glanced at me, flashing a wink.

"Very well then, Tia. We shalt be patient. Amethyst, we hope thou may come to thy senses and cease this madness thou hast with Prince Blueblood."

"It's kinda hard to do that when I'm trying to deal with these hormonal changes running amok inside me, Princess," I replied sheepishly. I took a drink of my wine, noting the high quality and smiled.

"Blueblood, we hope that thou treat Amethyst with the utmost respect," Luna chided him, glaring a little.

"Of course, Auntie Luna! She has been very kind to me," he gushed, beaming a smile at me. One of the nobles said something rather rude, causing the Lunar Princess to glare angrily at that noble.

"Be careful that we doth not strip thee of thy title!" she admonished him sharply as he shrunk back into his chair.

I finished eating my salad at this point and downed the rest of the wine before addressing Princess Celestia. "Your Majesty, I believe it is time for me to retire for the evening. I request that I be permitted to spend the night with your nephew, if you don't mind."

"Tia! We forbid it!" Luna exclaimed almost indignantly.

"Amethyst, you may accompany my nephew to his room tonight. Blueblood, I would advise you to treat her with respect."

"You have my word, Auntie Tia," he grinned as he rose to his hooves and began trotting back toward his room.

"I thank you for your hospitality, your Majesty. See you tomorrow for breakfast?" I half-asked half-said as I followed the white stallion.

"Of course, Amethyst. Pleasant dreams," she offered, smiling warmly. Luna simply frowned and remained silent as I left the Dining Hall and cantered to catch up to Blueblood. He practically pranced all the way to his room, a big smile on his face. Upon entering his room, I climbed onto his bed and drifted off to sleep. He sighed contentedly as he climbed into his bed behind me and draped a foreleg over my barrel.

Chapter 6 -- A Fool in Love

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 6 -- A Fool in Love

Rays from Celestia's Sun woke me from my slumber, causing me to grumble lightly at the annoyance of having that happen ... again. I tried turning over and noticed the white stallion still had his foreleg wrapped around my body, giving me a sense of comfort. I felt somewhat strange, as though the intense warmth that had been so pervasive had left me. Also gone was that overwhelming urge to be rutted senseless, something that I considered to be a great relief, until I realized what that meant. My eyes went wide with fear at this realization and I sat bolt upright and began screaming.

"What's wrong, my Lady?" the Prince asked as he groggily rubbed sleep from his eyes. He sat up, turned to me and smiled. "You have made me so happy, Lady Amethyst! Please allow me to accompany you today!"

"AAAAAAHHH!" I screamed again and jumped out of his bed, losing my balance and falling on my face. I scrambled to my hooves and tried to gallop for the door, but in my haste to leave, my hooves slipped and I slid into the door face first. I grunted in pain as I tried to collect my senses and rose to my hooves again.

"My Lady, please! Stay with me awhile longer, please!" he begged as he crawled to the edge of his bed. I turned around, a scowl on my face as I trotted slowly over to him.

"YOU! You got me PREGNANT!" I screeched as I mashed my muzzle against his, causing him to cower under the bedcover, a look of fright on his face.

"Please! Please don't hurt me, my Lady! I thought you wanted me to rut you!" he protested meekly as he backed away from me and fell off the other edge of his bed and onto the floor. I trotted around his bed to meet him again, but my expression had softened.

"Prince Blueblood -- I know that's what I wanted yesterday -- but that was because I was feeling the effects of the estrus, and those hormones made me do things I shouldn't have done," I replied softly, wrapping my forelegs around him to hug him. "You're going to be a father in less than a year, Blue."

"AAAAAAAAHHHH!! NOOOOOOOO!!" he wailed as he broke from my embrace. "By my Aunt's beard! I'm too young to be a father! I haven't lived enough! I -- I --" he blurted before he stopped and turned around to face me. "This was your plan all along, wasn't it, Lady Amethyst? To get me to rut you so you could bear a foal by me? To make me fall in love with you and want you by my side all the time? To -- to --" he slowly trotted up to me and smiled, pushing his muzzle against mine before kissing me on my lips. "You had me going there for a minute, my Lady! Thinking I had gotten you pregnant or something..."

"I hate to break it to you, Blue, but my estrus has left me -- that can mean only one thing -- that you got me pregnant," I responded matter-of-factly, giving him a neutral expression. He stood in stunned silence, his mouth agape, his eyes wide with fear, his ears lowered. I watched him try to say something, his mouth flopping open and closed like a fish, which elicited a light chuckle from me. "Perhaps your Auntie can help us, though -- maybe she might have an answer to this little dilemma," I suggested warmly.

"Yes! That's it! Let's go see Auntie Tia NOW!" he implored, grinning foolishly as he cantered to the door and opened it, breaking into a near gallop to reach the Dining Hall. I quickly matched his pace as our hoofsteps reverberated loudly through the corridor. We arrived at the Dining Hall very shortly, the Prince barging his way in hurriedly. Upon seeing the Solar Princess sitting serenely at her end of the table, he practically pranced right up to her. I had to stifle a chuckle at his display.

"Auntie Tia, I'm afraid I may have done something rash," he offered, his head and ears lowered in apology.

"I suppose you might have impregnated Amethyst, am I correct in this assumption?"

"Y-yes, Auntie Tia, I -- I -- I think I might have, just a little," he said meekly, bowing a little deeper.

"She is either pregnant or she is not, nephew. If she is, then you must be the father. Do not shirk your responsibilities to her, for your sake," she admonished him sternly.

"But -- but -- Auntie Tia! I'm not ready to be a father just yet!" he nearly shouted, his voice raising an octave. I heard various nobles chuckling and laughing at his predicament. I wore a wry smile, finding the proceedings somewhat amusing, though there was that nagging concern about raising a foal by myself.

"Then you have about a year to prepare, nephew! This will provide you the necessary opportunity to mature into a proper stallion and build your character. I seem to recall a time not too long ago when you expressed a desire to ease your boredom. I believe your new status as a father will cure you of that predicament," the Alicorn replied, a somewhat mischievous smile playing on her lips.

His eyes went wide with fear again as he turned tail and wailed in anguish as he tried to leave the Dining Hall. Upon reaching me, he stopped and smiled again before making a request of me.

"My Lady, please talk some sense into my Auntie! She -- she --"

"This is no joke, Blue. I don't know what you expected, but you have to accept the consequences of your actions -- and since you're going to be a father, I expect you to be here to help me raise our foal, whether male or female," I chided gently. "I know fatherhood scares you -- trust me, I know all about it -- but in time, you will come to accept your role and even enjoy it."

"AAAAUUUGGGHH! NOOOOOOO!" he wailed as he left for his room. I turned to Celestia.

"Well, THAT could have gone better," I observed, stating it loudly enough for everypony in the Dining Hall to hear me.

"Amethyst, please approach me," the Alicorn said sternly, nearly glowering at me. I meekly trotted to her, my ears lowered. "Please, I'm not upset with you for causing him such consternation -- in fact, I found it rather amusing. I must admit, though, that I am disappointed that you chose him to sire a foal."

"I'm very sorry, your Majesty -- I suppose I could blame it on the hormones, but -- I couldn't help myself. It felt so good! I'm sorry," I said softly, lowering my head and ears again. She rose to her hooves and sidled next to me, wrapping a wing around me.

"Amethyst, I know this is going to be difficult for you. I apologize for placing you in estrus like that -- I should have known better, but -- I suppose I let my more mischievous side get the better of me. I would like you to know that I will do everything I can to help you raise your foal. Since you were previously male, you've never experienced foal-birth before, have you?"

I hung my head even lower, my ears flat against my head. "No, your Majesty, I have not. I have heard from some women that giving birth to a child is like passing a bowling ball through the vagina, and I know that it generally hurts like Hell when it happens. That's something I'm not looking forward to."

"Consider it a learning experience, Amethyst, but I assure you I will assist when the time comes. I will also ensure you have the proper prenatal care to ensure a healthy foal. By the way, have you eaten yet?"

"No, Princess, I haven't -- though I'm not feeling very hungry right now," I replied.

"If you do get hungry, I will have a server bring you some food. For now, I suggest you return to your room to freshen up a little -- and I will have Right Face escort you to the Library, where you can begin your training."

"I apologize for yesterday, your Majesty," I said softly, my head and ears still lowered.

"You have nothing to apologize for, Amethyst. I will visit you later to confirm your status -- there is always the possibility of a false positive, that your estrus may have gone into temporary remission. Right Face will accompany you while you are in the library, should your estrus return and require your necessary absence from that facility." Celestia informed one of her guards to summon the teal stallion, forcing me to wait about fifteen minutes until he arrived. I took the opportunity to nibble on a small salad to sate my hunger a little. He trotted up to me, a smile on his face.

"I trust you slept well last night, my Lady?" he asked pleasantly. He sniffed the air for a moment and frowned. "You are no longer in estrus?"

"Maybe, maybe not. Please don't be angry with me, Right Face," I replied.

"No, I'm not -- perhaps a little disappointed, but I guess I should have expected as much. I heard about Prince Blueblood and what you did with him yesterday -- but I have also heard he is as impotent as me and cannot sire foals either," he chuckled.

"You know, you shouldn't get my hopes up like that -- but I thank you for offering me a degree of comfort," I smiled warmly.

"My Lady, should your estrus return, I would be honored to provide you a little relief, if you'd like," he said, grinning broadly.

"Hmm. I will think about it, Right Face. Let's get going, I don't want to be late."

"You have enough time to freshen up, my Lady. I will accompany you back to your chambers so you may make yourself presentable."

He nudged me gently with his muzzle, nodding to the exit. I glanced at the Solar Princess, who motioned for me to go, smiling serenely at me, a sign which gave me confidence. I bowed my head ever so slightly to her, widening my smile to her, then turned and followed the teal stallion through the hallways and staircases to my chambers. I noticed the room had been cleaned and the bed sheets changed, as well as fresh towels in the bathroom. Right Face followed me into my chambers.

"Okay, you can rest on my bed while I take a shower -- unless you'd like to join me and help me?" I grinned mischievously.

"You don't have to beat me over the head with such broad hints, my Lady," he chuckled as he followed me into the bathroom.

I turned on the water, letting it reach the desired temperature before climbing into the tub, the teal stallion following me in. Using his magic, he took a bottle of shampoo and warmed some up in his hooves before slowly caressing my body with it, lathering me up quite nicely. He then worked a lather into my mane and tail, rinsing it out thoroughly. I was somewhat surprised he didn't try to rut me in the shower, but I found myself moaning in pleasure at his skillful touch, surprised that his hooves could bring about such a wonderful sensation.

"My Lady, I would be honored if you would return the favor for me," he stated almost reverently, turning around for me as we switched places under the flow of water.

"I hope this doesn't take too long, but I will do my best," I offered matter-of-factly, likewise warming some shampoo in my hooves and lathering him up relatively easily. I took the opportunity to massage his body in certain places, eliciting grunts and groans of approval at my touch, likewise lathering up his mane and tail, though also paying special attention to his glans -- working him up into a shuddering orgasm in the process. I giggled at the seemingly effortless ability I had to make him spurt his jizz.

"Ah, my Lady, you spoil me like that," he chuckled as I finished rinsing the soap out of his coat, mane and tail.

"I just try to be friendly to whomever I can, especially when they show me such kindness in return, Right Face. Let me rinse off again, please."

He obliged me by allowing me to get back under the flow of water, rinsing out any remaining soap before I turned off the water. We got out and toweled off, then took a few moments to brush our teeth. I took a brush to my mane and tail and curled them into something attractive before I considered myself presentable. The teal stallion smiled in approval at me as he brushed his mane and tail out quickly.

"My Lady, I believe we might need to hurry a little to make it to the library," he observed. He trotted to the door somewhat quickly, opening it just in time to see Twilight trotting by. I saw the lavender unicorn and called out her name, causing her to halt her progress and enter my room.

"Michael? Oh, wait, that's right! You changed your name when you became a unicorn mare! Um, let me guess -- Amethyst Shadow, right?" she asked, striking a pensive pose. I nodded my head in affirmation to her query, though I had one of my own for her.

"Twilight, I'm surprised to see you here. Where is Trixie? Has she been behaving herself? I've been wanting to see her again," I noted softly. My smile widened when I saw her enter, just behind the scholar.

"Trixie is right here, Amethyst! She has been wanting to meet you again as well! Trixie has been a good pony, just as Twilight asked," she said, a big smile on her face. My escort tapped his right fore-hoof impatiently and cleared his throat.

"My Lady, I believe we might be tardy to the library," the teal stallion reiterated with more concern, flashing a worried look at me. The other two mares did a double-take when they heard him call me that.

"When did you become nobility?" asked a nearly exasperated Twilight, an expression of great surprise marking her features.

"Princess Celestia gave me this amulet," I replied nonchalantly, holding it aloft in my pale blue magic aura. I watched both of them nearly gasp in wonderment. "That's what I thought as well when she gave it to me," I giggled, placing it back on my neck and fastening it behind my mane. "Now if you two will please excuse me, I have a job to do -- I am going to be working in the library here, at least for the time being, until new duties are assigned."

"My Lady, please! We have no more time to waste!" Right Face implored stridently, rapidly tapping his right forehoof on the floor.

"Okay, okay, let's go, then," I pouted, trotting to the door. "Let's go, I need to close the door now."

The four of us trotted along the corridors as Right Face led the way to the Library. Trixie took the opportunity to marvel at all the decorations, expressing her wonderment audibly. I too was suitably impressed, but kept my thoughts to myself. Twilight explained about her intimate knowledge of the Castle's interior as well, giving a brief explanation of various things that caught the show-mare's eye. Presently we arrived at the Library and the teal stallion escorted me inside.

"I have fond memories of this place," the lavender unicorn mused pensively, gazing wistfully at the bookcases. Trixie trotted over to me, a sly expression on her face as Twilight took a few moments to wander through the shelves and reminisce again.

"Amethyst, Trixie wants to see you later," the show-mare whispered into my ear, making me blush.

"See if you can get Princess Celestia to let you stop by my room later on -- my escort can help you on that -- perhaps Twilight can help you persuade the Princess or something," I said softly to her.

"My Lady, please follow me -- we must meet with Silent Moon, the current librarian," Right Face interrupted, tapping me on my left shoulder. "Trixie, is it? Lady Amethyst is to work here in the Library, so please find Twilight and continue with her."

"Trixie is capable of making her own decisions," she admonished, sticking out her tongue and trotting off to find the scholar. I trotted behind my escort, who led me to the circulation desk. Behind it was an older unicorn mare, strands of grey in her mane. Her coat was an olive drab green, her mane mostly a gold color, her eyes a deep burgundy. Her cutie mark appeared to be what looked like a black square with a pale yellow crescent moon on it.

Why is she the librarian?

"I've been expecting you, Amethyst," she stated dully. Her voice seemed to grate, like gravel on a washboard; there was a hint of a nasal twang to it and a hint of condescension behind it as well. She looked over her square red spectacles and frowned at me.

"You are Silent Moon, the librarian here? I have some experience working in a library," I offered warmly. Her frown deepened.

"Yes, I am, and I will be the judge of your experience," she grumbled. She glanced at my flanks and saw the lack of a cutie mark. "What kind of pony are you when you don't even have a cutie mark? How old are you?"

"Forty-nine, ma'am," I replied solemnly. "I'll let you in on a little secret -- I was a human just a few days ago, and humans don't get cutie marks," I grinned. My explanation caused her to express a small degree of surprise.

"I have read about humans -- there are a few books in here on that subject -- but how can that be? You look like a rather young unicorn mare to me -- you can't possibly be that old!"

"If you doubt me, just ask Twilight or Princess Celestia -- even Prince Blueblood has seen me in my human form," I replied nonchalantly, watching her surprise increase a bit more.

"How would a blank-flank like you be on good terms with those two?" she asked sharply. I pointed to my amulet with my right fore-hoof, causing her to gasp in astonishment.

"You might want to check yourself before you wreck yourself, ma'am," I admonished just as sharply, narrowing my eyes at the older mare. She blanched for a split-second before she regained some of her composure.

"You would do well to dispense with threats, unless you'd like me to report you to the Princess," she retorted with more than a hint of anger.

"I don't take too well to being insulted, ma'am, nor do I appreciate being threatened either. Let's put this little kerfuffle behind us so we can work together, please."

"Where did you get that amulet?" she asked. "Whomever gave it to you made a terrible mistake!"

I snorted derisively and turned my tail to her, trotting off to find my escort. He was standing near the door with a bored expression on his face, then brightened a bit when he saw me trotting to him. His smile vanished immediately upon seeing my mood.

"My Lady, what happened?" he asked in surprise.

"The librarian here is causing me some trouble, so I need to meet with the Princess again," I replied angrily. Said mare came trotting after me, though she favored her right fore-leg a little, limping on it slightly.

"I don't know who you think you are, trotting away from me like that," she snarled. She readied her left forehoof to strike me, but my escort used his magic to stop her.

"Ma'am, it would appear I cannot work with you, so I am returning to the Throne Room to seek another audience with Princess Celestia. I will report your behavior to her, since you seem to be so disagreeable towards me -- I suspect you probably think because I don't have a cutie mark that you're superior to me," I responded bitterly. She gasped again at this mention.

"Look, Amethyst, I'm sure we can work something out -- I'm sorry to have snapped at you like that," she offered, changing her attitude almost immediately.

"I don't think so, ma'am. I'm sorry, but I just can't do it. Right Face, let's go, perhaps the Princess can find another task for me," I offered glumly, trotting out of the facility. Twilight caught sight of me leaving and trotted after me, calling out my name as I left. The older mare seemed to have a panicked expression on her face as she trotted after me as well.

"Amethyst, where are you going?" asked Twilight as she quickened her pace. Trixie was chasing after her as well, followed by Silent Moon, who was now in full panic mode and frantically calling my name. My teal stallion escort was by my side, doing his level best to stifle his laughter. I glanced over my left shoulder to see who was calling my name and quickened my pace as well, nudging the stallion to follow my lead. I knew the way to the Throne Room now and my long strides left the others far behind, my escort just barely managing to keep pace with my galloping. I heard dismissive cluck-clucking from various ponies as we dashed to the Throne Room, making the trip a very short one of just three minutes. I came to a skidding halt just before the guards at the door, who glowered at me before they saw my amulet. They raised their eyebrows when they saw it.

"Kind sirs, I seek an immediate audience with Princess Celestia -- the matter is quite urgent," I announced breathlessly.

"Amethyst! Wait!" Twilight called out as she rounded the last corner and saw me standing at the doors. I sighed heavily and waited for the lavender unicorn, closely followed by the show-mare. My escort chuckled softly as they approached, though the elder librarian was nowhere to be seen. Heavy huffing and gasping for breath was what I heard as I waited for my pursuers to catch up. I turned to the guards and grinned sheepishly at them.

"Kind sirs, I apologize for the commotion, but there is a certain matter I need to bring to her Majesty's attention," I stated reverently, though I also gave a sincere smile. The scholar, the show-mare, and my escort trotted slowly to me, all three of them continuing to breathe heavily as they tried to catch their breath. From a distance, I heard Silent Moon huffing and swearing as she limped along the corridor, causing somewhat of a commotion as she tried to reach me.

"What's all the fuss here, ma'am?" one of them asked. The other raised an eyebrow quizzically at the sight of us.

"There's just the small matter of certain disrespectful librarian causing a little trouble for me, that's all," I offered politely.

"Amethyst is not referring to me," Twilight protested as the guards cast sidelong glances at her. "The other librarian, Silent Moon is the pony she's talking about."

At the mention of her name, said librarian finally reached the corridor leading to the Throne Room. Upon seeing the four of us standing by the guards, her face fell. She trotted more slowly, still gasping for breath, but her head was lowered, her ears laying flat against her head.

"Please, please forgive me," she stated loudly, huffing between each syllable as she made her plea.

"That's for the Princess to decide, Silent Moon," I replied, the line of ponies watching this exchange with mild interest.

"I'm sorry! I didn't know! Please, I can't afford to lose my job!" the mare pleaded more stridently.

"Very well then, Ms. Moon, I forgive you -- but I'm afraid I cannot work with you, so I shall need to ask Princess Celestia for some other duties," I noted. The doors opened from the inside, the Solar Princess having heard a fair amount of this exchange.

"Amethyst, I was expecting you to be in the Library -- what other duties would you have me give you?"

"Your Highness -- please forgive me, I had no idea she was nobility," the elder librarian offered reverently, bowing deeply to the Alicorn.

"I apologize for not introducing her to you, Silent Moon -- you are forgiven. Amethyst, I would expect you to work with my librarian if you can," she chided gently. It was at this rather inopportune moment that my pheromones flared up again.

"I, um, uh ... I think my heat has returned, your Majesty," I observed sheepishly, a blush coloring my cheeks slightly. I noticed Right Face, Trixie, and Twilight grin ever so slightly as the Princess seemed to frown.

"Your Highness, you mean to tell me that Amethyst is in heat right now? I had no idea -- I'm sorry, I'll return to the library now," offered the olive green mare.

"You may return, Silent Moon. Amethyst, I would advise you to exercise a little caution before you jump to conclusions regarding your estrus -- the cycles generally last a week or so, but sometimes when a mare is experiencing estrus, it will go into temporary remission after coitus, even if the stallion is impotent, like my nephew is, along with several other stallions in my Castle. Knowing which stallions are sterile is important if you wish not to get pregnant," the Alicorn explained.

"Princess! Why didn't you tell me this sort of thing during all MY estrus cycles!?" asked a flabbergasted Twilight. Trixie giggled at the explanation and Right Face blushed slightly. I was gobsmacked by this and stood in stunned silence with my mouth agape before I regained my composure and smiled again.

"I don't know whether to feel relieved or disappointed," I responded cheekily. "There's a part of me that kinda wanted to have a foal, even if it was by Prince Blueblood."

"WHAAAAT?! You ... you ... had SEX with him?" asked Twilight, her mane and tail beginning to smolder.

"Think about it, Twi -- if you were in the heat of the estrus and found yourself in the company of a stallion, regardless of whomever it was, wouldn't you give in to the temptation before you?" I asked, grinning slyly. Her anger vanished instantly as she matched my grin with one of hers, though hers had an element of embarrassment to it.

"Um, yeah, I guess," she uttered softly as she turned her gaze away from mine. Celestia smiled softly.

"Amethyst, I would request you inform me of what transpired in the Library to cause you to rush here," the Solar Princess mused as she returned her attention to me. It was about this time that her nephew caught sight of me and pranced quite happily toward us.

"I'm going to be a father! I'm going to be a father!" he shouted jubilantly, practically bouncing as he trotted towards us. I hung my head and shook it slowly from side to side, softly chuckling. An impish grin made its way onto Celestia's face as Twilight glowered at me. Trixie seemed to have a pained expression as my escort stood impassively, pondering the implications of the Prince's happiness. Said stallion trotted prettily to me, a big goofy smile on his face.

"My Lady, I believe I am ready to accept my responsibility now!" he chirped. Twilight and Trixie expressed a deep surprise to hear the Prince call me that.

"Um, Blue, I've got some bad news for you -- my estrus has returned, so I guess I'm not pregnant after all," I replied glumly.

The white stallion came to a skidding halt, a shocked expression on his face as his brain tried to process my statement. He regained his composure rather quickly as a big smile came to his face once again.

"I'm NOT going to be a father! YES! YES! YES! I'm NOT going to be a FATHER!!" he shouted exuberantly as he pranced away again, bouncing excitedly and shouting "YES!" a great many more times. His shouting could be heard for the next few minutes as he continued on his way to wherever it was he was going.

"Well, that could have gone better," I muttered as I rolled my eyes, eliciting tittering giggles from some of the mares who witnessed this exchange as well as a few chuckles from the remaining stallions.

"I apologize for my nephew's callousness, Amethyst," Celestia offered softly, a wry smile on her lips.

"I don't know whether to feel relieved or humiliated," I grumbled. "Your Majesty, I'm at a loss here -- what would you like me to do?"

"You may return to your chambers, Amethyst -- I will send Right Face when I have need of your services. Should you desire food, just make a request and it will be brought to you," she replied warmly.

"If it's not too much trouble of me to ask, your Majesty, may I have Trixie accompany me back to my chambers?" I grinned.

"Only if Twilight accompanies her, to ensure she does not cause any trouble. Right Face, please escort them to Amethyst's chambers," the Alicorn chuckled, returning my grin. She returned to the Throne Room, closing the doors behind her.

As we trotted toward my bedchamber, Twilight decided she needed some information from me. Having noticed I was in heat, she wanted to know everything that had happened since I had been taken to the Castle. We had a short conversation on the way to my room.

"Amethyst, I had no idea Princess Celestia would make you experience your estrus so soon," Twilight mused wryly.

"Neither did I, Twi -- I think she did it just to test me, but I guess that can't be helped. So what brings you and Trixie here?"

"Trixie was curious to see how you were doing, Amethyst!" the show-mare grinned. I flashed her a warm smile.

"I'm doing good, so far -- I can't wait for my estrus to end so I can perform my duties without that distraction. This heat -- ugh -- is a real pain in the flank," I complained.

"Pardon my interruption, my Lady, but -- why was Prince Blueblood acting so strangely?" asked the teal stallion.

"Well -- it's just that when I awoke this morning, my estrus seemed to have left me -- I thought he had gotten me pregnant -- and now I find out he's impotent and cannot sire foals -- that figures -- and my pheromones seem to have gotten even stronger," I began.

"Would you like my assistance with that matter, my Lady?" he asked, a big toothy grin on his face.

"Trixie would like to provide assistance with that matter as well!" the show-mare giggled.

"Um, Amethyst, you wouldn't mind if I provided assistance as well?" Twilight asked as her face showed a blush and a grin.

"Hmm. I don't see why not," I replied nonchalantly, though my grin gave away any pretense of modesty. We reached my bedchamber at this point and I opened the door to find a certain white stallion lounging on my bed, a big grin on his face.

"My Lady! Amethyst! I have been waiting for you!" he chirped. His face fell when my escort and the two mares followed me in. "Um, Amethyst, what are they doing here? Why are they here?"

"You already know Right Face, he's my escort. Twilight, I'm sure you've seen during your time here in the Castle. Trixie, she's a friend -- a close friend, I might add -- I don't suppose you might be willing to share yourself with us?" I asked, flashing a big toothy grin.

"But -- but -- my Lady! I was wanting you to myself!" he protested. I trotted up to him and booped him on his muzzle with my right fore-hoof.

"Later, Blue, later. Right now, I have certain needs which must be addressed -- if you don't feel like participating, you're free to leave if you wish," I giggled.

Chapter 1 -- A Rude Awakening

Waking Up With Twilight

Chapter 1 -- A Rude Awakening

It had been yet another long week of work in a long string of them. My fatigue had caused me to ask the car to teleport me home, which it faithfully obliged. The continued use of the car's teleportation function had drained the magic batteries down to five per cent and the car let me know that it would refuse any further uses of that function until such time as I drove the car some 200 miles to recharge them. I groaned in disgust at that mention.

"You know, sometimes I wish I could go to Equestria and spend the night with Twilight in her bed," I grumbled.

"I can teleport you to Equestria if you'd like, but I cannot do so until the magic batteries are recharged," TS stated.

"You mean to tell me I could have gone back at any time I had wanted to? Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!" I exclaimed, a mix of disgust, disbelief, and anticipation in my voice.

"Who are they? I don't know them," TS responded. "Yes, I have the ability to teleport you across the dimensional barrier to Equestria, if that is your wish."

"I'm too tired to drive that distance tonight, but I believe I can address that issue tomorrow," I offered as I pulled into the driveway and turned off the car. "Good-night, TS," I said warmly.

"Good-night, Michael," came the flat monotone response from the speakers.

"Michael, I would have words with you," came Princess Celestia's voice from the speakers.

"Your Majesty, I am very tired and desire sleep," I stated.

"You have expressed a desire to sleep with my student -- this is a request I cannot honor, Michael."

"Please, your Majesty, I beg of you," I stated, a hint of desperation in my voice. "I'm even willing to become a pony in order to provide her with her desire for a special somepony."

"You are married, and I cannot accept --"

"Ugh! Do you have any idea of what my current situation is? Have you any idea how miserable I am, how desperately I wish to leave this world behind and make a new life for myself in Equestria? The fact that I have just now discovered I could return has given me hope that maybe, just maybe I might be able to experience happiness once again for the first time in more than fifteen years."

"Be that as it may, Michael, I'm afraid I cannot honor your request, as much as it pains me to do so."

"Is there something you can do for me, your Majesty? Is there some way I can earn your trust, to prove to you that I am an honorable man, and that I would do everything I can to make Twilight happy?"

"I shall consider your request -- I cannot give you an answer immediately -- but when you do return, I would desire that you meet with me first before traveling to see my student. I trust you will do the right thing, Michael."

"You have my word, your Majesty. Good-night, Princess."

"Good-night, Michael. I look forward to meeting you once again," she offered warmly.

"Me too, Princess," I said as I got out of the car and locked it behind me, pocketing the key fob. I went into my house and was greeted by Brenda.

"You were out there in the car for awhile -- what were you doing?" she asked.

"I had a short discussion with Princess Celestia," I replied matter-of-factly. She glared at me in disapproval.

"What have I told you about that? You need to stop with these fantasies of yours, Mike. I thought I told you to stop talking to those damned ponies, especially the Princess! What, are you thinking about going back there?"

"Well, only for a short while -- maybe just a week-end or something," I answered.

Or maybe longer...

"As long as it's only for a week-end, then I guess it's okay -- but you will need to drop me off in Champaign before you take off for ... whatever that place is called."

"Equestria," I said without thinking.

"Don't remind me! I've half a mind to tell you no!"

"Jesus, Brenda, you never let me have any fun!"

"Your idea of fun is weird, Mike! What's so special about that place anyway?"

"I'm curious to know what's been going on there since I last visited the place -- I also miss Pinkie's cupcakes."

"Bring me back a few of those, Mike! She makes some very tasty cupcakes!"

Ah, there's my ticket -- just promise Brenda some of Pinkie's cupcakes and I'm golden!

"Yep, I'll be sure to bring back a box of her special triple chocolate frosted cupcakes for you." At this point, I trudged upstairs to get some sleep. I was very tired and the thought of getting on the computer was one which did not appeal to me. I pulled back the cover of the bed and stripped off my clothing, save for my skivvies and snuggled under the sheet. Before I allowed myself to drift off, I reiterated my wish with a slight change of wording:

I wish to wake up laying next to Twilight Sparkle in her bed in Ponyville tomorrow morning.

I then turned over again, the bed proving to be somewhat less than comfortable, but eventually drifted off to sleep. I could only guess that Brenda had joined me in bed at some point as I had heard the television start blaring, but my fatigue was so great that I lost consciousness some time after that. At some point I felt a cool breeze against the lower part of my legs and feet which seemed to be hanging off the end of the bed.

That's weird -- I could have sworn this bed was big enough for me...

I turned over and felt warmth from my left. Assuming this was Brenda, I snuggled closer to the source of warmth, wrapping my body around it under the cover, bringing my legs under the cover on the bed, though my feet were still exposed. I decided I could live with that, and wrapped an arm around what I thought was Brenda's body. The one thing that surprised me was how furry this body actually was. I chanced a peek at who I was laying against for warmth and noticed it wasn't Brenda.

Oh no -- Princess Celestia is going to be angry with me...

The pony snuggled firmly against me, a smile on her face I could not see. She placed a hoof on my hand and began sliding it slowly further down her belly, my fingertips brushing lightly against her teats, which sent an almost electrical thrill through my body. My emotions were torn -- should I let her go through with what I thought she was about to do, or should I put a stop to it before it began?

Before I got the chance to make a decision one way or the other, her grip on my hand tightened as she pushed it firmly against her sex, my fingertips lightly brushing against the slightly damp fleshy folds of her outer labia. She slid my hand up and down and cooed for me to make small circles around her clitoris. There was a part of me that wondered if she was actually pretending to be asleep -- only to watch her turn over, my hand firmly clenched between her haunches. I was able to see that she was smiling, which brought a similar smile to my lips. She squeezed my hand with her hind legs, applying quite a bit of pressure, causing me to try to pull it out slowly.

"Mmh, MacIntosh, please don't pull out just yet," she cooed softly. I hazarded a kiss on her lips, causing her to wake immediately, her smile disappearing with the same alacrity as her wakefulness.

"What -- what -- you kissed me -- what --" she sputtered as my gesture had discombobulated her.

My giggling didn't help. "Sorry about that, Twilight -- I didn't know how else to wake you," I chuckled.

"AAAAAHHH!! Get out of my bed! AAAAHHH!" she screamed as she leapt off the bed, landing on her hooves.

"Hey, stop for a moment, would ya please?" I asked, trying to make my words sound as comforting as I could.

"Why should I? What are you doing in my bed? What are you? How do you know my name? Who --"

I got up out of her bed and stood up, causing her to back against the wall of her room. I approached her and knelt to meet her eyes, looking deeply into them. A smile graced my lips as I took a moment to gaze into her eyes.

"Twilight, I would like you to know that I would never hurt you or do anything to make you feel sad. My name is Michael, and I am a human from an alternate universe, a world far away from here or possibly the same world, but from a time in the distant past or something -- I'm not exactly sure which --"

"I still want to know how you got here, and why you were in my bed! And how is it that you know my name?"

"Last night before I went to bed, I made a wish to wake up next to you -- I suppose this might sound unbelievable, but I have had a crush on you ever since I first saw you. There is one other thing -- a while back, I was actually in a copy of your body and used magic to do several things, including enchanting my automobile --"

"What? You -- were -- ME? But -- HOW?"

"I must be the luckiest human ever to exist -- it was difficult enough for me to believe that one of my wishes would be granted, let alone two! I had made a wish to experience what it would be like to be you for a day -- I had so much fun, I wanted to do it again! But -- I decided I wanted to marry you instead --"

"NOOOO! WHYYYY? WHY ME?"

"I know, I know -- the thought of marrying a human is probably the most repugnant thing you could imagine -- BUT, for you, I would be willing to be transformed into a unicorn stallion or mare, depending on your preference," I grinned.

"Wait -- what? You -- would be willing -- to do that -- for ME? But ... but ... why? Why me?" she asked, a look of sheer incredulity on her face.

"Why not? As I said before, I enjoyed being you, even though it was for a very short time -- you and I met up and had a lot of fun and I thoroughly enjoyed your company -- so much so, that I resolved to make you my mare if I ever got the chance to return to Ponyville to meet up with you again," I said warmly, which seemed to bring a smile to her face.

"What did we do together?" she asked, her curiosity overtaking her trepidation.

"We pulled a prank together on Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash," I grinned. "Your brother was a little surprised to see two of us, but Princess Celestia seemed to take it in stride."

"You met my BBBFF? What do you think of him? How did we pull off that prank? I thought it was impossible to pull a prank on Pinkie," she mused.

"Pinkie thought I was a changeling at first, though it was some quick thinking on my part that kept her off her guard," I chuckled.

"Did somepony mention my name? Hey, Mikey, were you talking about marrying Twiley here? I got a great big wedding party to plan! Seeya, BYE!" said pink earth pony chirped before disappearing as quickly as she had popped in.

"Pinkie! I'm not getting married! Wait!" the librarian protested at the baker's retreating form, a loud giggling being clearly audible as she left. I chuckled at her antics, but Twilight glared at me, a serious expression on her face.

"Amazing how she does that -- I haven't even told her my name, yet she knew who I was, and what my desire is. There's a part of me that, after having experienced what it was like to be you, wanted to experience being Trixie for awhile," I mused, eliciting a loud gasp from the librarian.

"Why would you want to be HER? Have you any idea of how much trouble she caused around here the last time she showed up? You realize what sort of reputation she has, don't you?"

"Yeah, but she's kinda sexy in my opinion -- I think she kinda got a raw deal the first time she showed up and didn't take being shown up very well -- she perceived you as her enemy and sought revenge. I think she's just a bit misunderstood and needs some guidance in the right direction. I actually have some sympathy for her, as unbelievable as that sounds."

"Sexy? HER? Really, now, Michael, what would lead you to that conclusion?" the librarian asked as she huffed in annoyance that I would consider somepony else being sexier than her.

"Oh, you're not jealous, are you, Twilight?" I asked, grinning broadly.

"....N-n-no! I -- I -- ugh!" she groaned.

A knocking was heard at the front door just after Twilight asked her question. "I'll get it," I offered, bumping my head against the too-low door frame. "Ow!" I exclaimed, rubbing my forehead. "I should have taken that into consideration," I muttered as I continued to rub my forehead. Twilight giggled at my plight as she trotted through the doorway and downstairs to the front door. Spike waddled into the bedroom and saw me sitting on the floor, rubbing my forehead.

"What -- who -- what -- are you?" he asked, backing away from me. I had to stifle a chuckle at his reaction.

"Trixie? What are you doing here?" asked Twilight as she opened the door to reveal the azure unicorn.

"Trixie desires a place to sleep -- she has been traveling for a long time and hoped Sparkle would be kind enough to provide a bed," she said, a hint of sadness in her voice.

"There is somepony I would like for you to meet, Trixie -- please follow me upstairs, he said he's interested in meeting you," the librarian grinned as she relished the prospect of seeing the show-mare's reaction to seeing me for the first time.

"Spike, my name's Michael, I'm a human, and I was granted a wish last night," I explained. I heard more than one set of hoofsteps on the stairs, which piqued my curiosity.

I wonder who Twilight let in at this time of morning...

Twilight re-entered her room, but it was her guest which brought a very big smile to my face. "Trixie!" I grinned.

"What -- what -- AAAH! Sparkle, protect me from that -- that -- whatever it is! Why -- why --"

I walked over to the stunned show-mare and knelt before her, placing my hands gently on her withers. She tried to back away from me, but I increased my grip on her withers, trying to keep her from backing away.

"Trixie, it's okay, please trust me," I offered warmly. "I'm not going to hurt you -- I respect you too much to do that."

"Sparkle, why didn't you tell Trixie that you had this -- this -- what are you?"

I couldn't help but giggle at her. "Trixie, my name is Michael, and I am a human. Last night before I went to bed, I made a wish to wake up in Twilight's bed, but seeing you makes me very happy -- there's a part of me that has wanted to meet you face to face -- um, there's another part of me that -- um -- wanted to -- marry you?" I stated very hesitantly.

"What? Trixie would never marry a ... human? What could you possibly do for Trixie that could make her --"

Without hesitation, I reached behind her ears and started scratching with my fingers, kind of the way I might scratch a dog behind its ears. A smile crept across the show-mare's face as I dug in a little deeper, then worked my way back to the back of her neck, then down to her withers.

"Mmh, Trixie doesn't know how you're doing that, but please don't stop! Trixie likes the way that feels!"

"Michael, you wanted to marry ME! Why would you offer Trixie --"

"Trixie wants to know who you would rather marry, Michael," she stated firmly as she turned her gaze to me. "Do not play games with Trixie's affection -- she will not tolerate that!"

"Did you not listen closely to what I said, to either of you? I said, there was a part of me that expressed such a desire -- and Twilight, you told me you weren't interested in marriage," I averred.

"Well ... that was before you told Trixie what you did ... I mean, you did wake up laying next to me," the librarian mused, offering a sheepish grin.

"Trixie wants to know, Michael -- oh, could you massage Trixie's back for her?" the azure mare asked, also grinning.

I rubbed my fingers into Trixie's withers, working circles down her back towards her hindquarters. She moaned deeply at my ministrations, eliciting a light giggling from the librarian. Spike seemed to watch with fascination.

"Would you both be willing to give me some time to come to a decision on this matter? It's not my desire to be rushed into such a commitment," I stated as I continued to massage the show-mare's back.

"Mmmmmh, Michael, could you -- umm -- go lower for Trixie?" she asked, her smile widening.

"I don't want to touch you inappropriately," I offered. Twilight huffed in protest.

"You didn't seem to have a problem with touching ME inappropriately," she nearly growled.

"YOU were the one who grabbed hold of my hand, Twi," I protested. Spike covered his ears.

"And you didn't try to stop me before I --" she began, but caught herself, though she blushed furiously.

"Mmmh, Sparkle, what did you do? Trixie is curious," the show-mare grinned. "Michael, you may touch Trixie wherever you want -- your touch is exquisitely pleasurable!"

I took the opportunity to work circles on her flanks, lightly tracing her cutie marks, then working my hands down to the insides of her haunches, kneading circles along the cannons until I reached her hind hooves. I lightly took one in my right hand, pressing lightly into it with the fingers of my left hand, then working circles with my left hand up the front of her left hind leg. The azure mare began stiffening up as her moans became longer and louder, her breathing coming in ragged gasps as my touch seemed to be bringing her close to a climax.

"MMMHH! Michael! Ooooh!" she cooed loudly. Twilight's blush deepened.

"Um, Michael, would you be kind enough to massage me next?" she grinned.

"I suppose so, Twi," I replied matter-of-factly. Trixie's moaning was having an effect on me as my arousal was starting to become evident. I noticed the librarian's gaze appearing to be low, her eyes almost half-lidded. I traced her gaze and noticed she was staring at my manhood, which was tenting my briefs. "Ooh, you naughty filly, you," I chuckled as I locked my gaze with the lavender mare, who quickly turned her head away, though not before her blushing had deepened further still. Her face appeared almost beet red, so intense was her blush.

"Mmh, tell Trixie she is a naughty filly, Michael! Ooooh! Don't stop!" she cooed as I tended to her other hind leg, working my way up the inside of her haunches, brushing my fingertips against her teats, tweaking one of the nipples with my thumb and forefinger, which elicited an even louder moan as her body tensed up even further.

"Ooh, Trixie, you naughty filly, you! How close are you to coming?" I asked, sliding my hand firmly up the inside of her right hind leg, then finding the cleave of her plot, running my fingers from the front to the back of her dark blue fleshy folds which were dripping wet with her love juice. I teased even deeper and breathier moans from her as I took a chance to slide a couple of fingers into her marehood before she started shuddering, then lost her balance and collapsed to the floor, my ministrations having reduced the show-mare to a bundle of nerve endings as she lost herself in her climax, riding it as long as she could. The lavender mare was dumb-struck by my efficiency as Trixie's body continued to shake with the intensity of her climax before she finally relaxed.

"Oooooh, Michael! Trixie will let you do that to her any time you want!" she cooed softly, a big grin plastered on her face.

"Um, Michael, would you be kind enough to do that for me now?" asked Twilight, flashing me a big grin.

"You promise you have no concerns over any inappropriate touching on my part?" I asked, mainly to cover my ass if such touching would get me in trouble.

"Well, Trixie seemed to completely enjoy it, so, uhh, I guess you can touch me anywhere you want as well," she offered almost half-heartedly.

"Okay, Twi, here goes," I said as I sidled up to her and began scratching her behind her ears. Her smile returned as she succumbed to the pleasure I was giving her as I intensified and quickened the pace of my scratching.

"Oooh, Michael -- I didn't know it felt like that!" she said, a hint of amazement in her voice. I ran my fingers down the back of her neck, continuing to scratch with my nails, listening to her utterances to determine the next course of action. Upon reaching her withers, I began rubbing circles around them, working my fingers into her muscles, which elicited grunts of approval from the librarian.

"Mmmh, Michael! You must have magic hands!" she cooed. Trixie was watching with keen interest now, still smiling as she watched Twilight begin to lose control of her emotions and luxuriate in the sensation.

"Trixie concurs, Sparkle! His hands seem to work miracles," the show-mare mused warmly as she turned to face me and flashed me a very big smile. "Trixie wants another treatment, Michael," she nearly pleaded.

"Trixie, he's still doing me! Wait your turn!" she chided as I continued to massage her back, working my way along the sides of her body and top of her back towards her hindquarters. As I did so, her body seemed to give way to the pressure I was applying to her muscles with my fingertips as I worked smaller circles into the more delicate muscles. She voiced her approval in deeper moans, begging me to work my way lower down her back and to touch her in her special area.

"I just want to make sure you're okay with me touching you there," I stated, offering her a chance to back out if she wanted to.

"Mmmmh, Michael, please! The way you, unnh, touch me! I want it! Please!" she nearly demanded.

I knelt behind her and pulled her haunches to reveal her marehood, which seemed to be winking at me seductively. I hazarded slipping two fingers into it and was rewarded by a long low breathy moan of pleasure, then her body stiffened rather quickly as I continued to push my fingers into and out of her love tunnel, increasing the speed a little as her breath came in increasingly more ragged gasps. She fell to the floor as well as the strain of standing became too great a burden for her as she relinquished control to her pleasure center.

"Oooooh, Michael! Don't stop! That feels soooo goooood!" she cooed. Trixie seemed to be blushing at this.

"Mmh, he is good, isn't he?" Trixie asked almost rhetorically. I caught her out of the corner of my eye -- she was laying on her belly on the floor with one of her forehooves under her body -- I couldn't see where it was, but given the fact that she seemed to be moaning in similar rhythm to the librarian, I could only guess where her hoof was. I allowed a big grin to cross my lips before returning my attention to the librarian, who now lay on her belly, her legs splayed out beside her. Her position made it difficult for me to continue pleasuring her, so I gently lifted her hips, straightening out her hind legs for support. I was certain that if she could see herself in her current position, she would be utterly mortified by this embarrassing view I was getting.

"Oooh, are you going to rut me now? I need it," she moaned. I glanced downward to see my manhood fully erect, then turned my attention back to the lavender mare's winking sex. I hesitated for a moment. "Come on, Michael! Please! Buck me like the naughty filly I am!" she exclaimed in a very sultry tone.

"Mmh, I've never done this before, but I'll give it my best," I said as I pulled the front of my briefs down to expose my rock hard shaft. Trixie gazed at it almost longingly and I caught sight of her staring at it. "Mmh, Trixie, you want me to do you next?" I asked, my grin widening.

"T-t-trixie is n-not sh-shure if sh-she sh-should," she stuttered, but continued to stare at me as I pulled the librarian's haunches apart and brought my lower abdomen to her hindquarters, my manhood sliding almost effortlessly into her very wet pussy.

"Oooooh, Michael! Oooohhhh!" she moaned as I hilted inside her. I began thrusting in and out, holding her flanks firmly, occasionally running a hand to her teats and squeezing the nipples, eliciting deeper moans and cries of pleasure from the lavender mare. I grunted with my exertion, speeding up the pace a little as her body stiffened further, the tension building within her as her climax began its inexorable approach.

"Mmmh, Twilight, you are so soft! Unh, you're tight, too!" I exclaimed as I slowed down the pace to take a few moments to savor the experience, drawing out my own pleasure as it began building. She started bucking her hips against me in an attempt to increase the sensation in her loins, speeding up her pace as her body tensed up further.

"Oooh, Michael, why are you slowing it down? I'm so close! Please! Speed it up again! That feels sooo good!"

"I don't know if I'll ever get to do this with you again, Twilight -- I want to savor every moment of this pleasure," I replied as I continued to thrust back and forth at a fairly decent pace, though not fast enough for her liking.

"I think I might be able to persuade Princess Celestia to let you do this with me more often," she giggled. "Come on, Michael! Speed it up!" she exclaimed as she increased her pace further still. She forced me to speed up my thrusting, causing my body to tense up in anticipation of the coming climax.

"Oooh, Twilight! I'm getting close!" I cooed. Trixie made no attempt to hide her shame as she rubbed her sex with her left fore-hoof, her cheeks bright red with the flush of blood-flow. She was moaning softly as she watched us.

"Oh, Trixie, is that you moaning like that? Ooooh!" the librarian moaned as my increased pace of thrusting was finally having the desired effect on her -- she was so close, I could sense it -- and apparently, she noticed just how close I was as well, my body also stiffening up in eager anticipation. I began thrusting into her more forcefully, speeding it up even further as she rocked her hips back and forth, timing the rhythm perfectly.

"Unnh, Twilight! AAAAHHH! CUMMING!" I grunted as my pleasure exploded into her, the warm gushing of my spunk mixing with her love juices as she achieved her orgasm simultaneously.

"OOOOHH, Michael! OOOOOHHH!" she moaned as she surrendered to her passion, her body shuddering and shaking with the intensity of her orgasm. I continued to thrust into her as I spent myself, my jizz still spurting into her love tunnel. My body jerked and spasmed a few times as my pleasure center was given deep satisfaction -- I was still able to pump into her, though it required a little concentration on my part until I ran out of stamina. I tried to pull back, but she held firm against me. "Oh, Michael, please don't pull out just yet! This feels so nice," she cooed.

"Oooh, yeah," Trixie moaned as she pushed herself over the edge, both of her fore-hooves mashed against her sex as she rubbed and squirmed on the floor in an attempt to maximize the intensity of her self-stimulation. "Trixie wants you to do that to her, too, Michael! Please?" she asked, giving me her best puppy-dog eyes look.

"Unh! Trixie, I'm gonna need some time to recover my stamina -- I used it all on Twilight. Sorry about that," I offered, grinning sheepishly.

"Trixie will wait -- she has time, Michael," she grinned. "Sparkle, thanks for introducing him!"

"Hey, Trixie, why do you call Twilight by her surname? And why do you refer to yourself in third person?" I asked.

"Trixie has referred to herself like that for a long time, Michael, and ... as for Sparkle ... Trixie is not sure why she calls Sparkle that, it's just that Trixie thinks it might annoy Sparkle if Trixie continues to call Sparkle Sparkle," the azure mare explained, giving a big toothy grin as said librarian seemed to glower at the show-mare in disapproval.

"You're terrible, Trixie," I chuckled. I looked at my briefs, which were now soaking wet with Twilight's love juices. "Hmm, looks like I'm gonna need a change of underwear," I muttered, causing both mares to giggle.

"I thought you'd be hungry and want something to eat," Spike offered as he re-entered the room. Upon seeing me in my state of nudity, he averted his gaze. "Um, Michael, is it customary for humans to show ... that?"

I blushed in embarrassment. "Sorry about that, Spike, let me cover it up," I replied, pulling my wet briefs back over my flaccid manhood. The wetness seemed to cause a slight arousal for me, though I caught both mares staring at me again. Twilight expressed a small degree of surprise, but Trixie smirked at me.

"Trixie knows it's her turn next, Michael -- please don't keep Trixie waiting too long," she giggled.

"Of course, Trixie, but first, let's get something to eat. I hear Spike's a pretty decent cook in his own right," I said nonchalantly. I saw the little drake beam a big smile.

"You heard right, Michael! Hope you like hay pancakes, I made a bunch!"

My face fell at that mention. "Um, Spike, I can't eat hay -- could you make a few pancakes without it?"

"Trixie hopes you have a little cinnamon and perhaps a dash of nutmeg to add to her pancakes," the show-mare half-asked, half-said.

"We do have cinnamon, but not nutmeg. Sorry, Trixie," the lavender mare responded with a hint of disappointment. She gave the show-mare an apologetic look.

"Trixie will make do -- thanks again, Sparkle," the azure mare offered, her tone sounding somewhat sincere.

"Michael, I'll make a few for you -- it'll be a few minutes," the little dragon stated. I watched him waddle away and heard his footsteps going downstairs.

"Come on, girls, let's go," I stated, a smile on my face. "You know, until my car told me it could transport me here, I had been hoping to meet both of you -- but I had no idea a wish would be granted. I just hope Princess Celestia isn't upset with me -- I promised to meet her before coming to meet you, Twilight."

"Hmm. But if you said you came from a different universe, perhaps the Princess you talked to is different from my Princess? I suppose there's one way to find out," the lavender mare stated.

"Trixie hopes you don't bring Princess Celestia to your house, Sparkle --" the show-mare stated with quite a bit of trepidation. "Trixie doesn't think Princess Celestia is happy with her."

"Okay, Trixie, I'll make sure to include your request in my letter," the librarian offered as we went downstairs. I was the last one to go down as I had to duck a little to avoid bumping my head on the low ceilings. We entered the kitchen to see Spike still working the griddle, a few pancakes sizzling on it. The scent of the cooking pancakes elicited a smile on my face, my belly growling in eager anticipation of tasting Equestrian cooking for only the second time in my life.

"Looks like somepony's hungry!" chuckled Twilight.

"Sorry about that -- I haven't eaten in about eighteen hours, so yeah, I am kinda hungry," I replied.

"You think I should make a few more pancakes, Mike?" asked the little drake as he flipped the ones he was cooking onto a plate for me.

"Hmm, I suppose so, if that's not too much of a burden on you -- I know food isn't cheap and it definitely isn't free. If there's some way I can repay your kindness --"

"Oh, it's no trouble at all, Michael! To be honest, I'm thrilled you came to see me! There is so much I want to learn about you and your world -- do you like music?" asked the librarian.

"Just about all kinds, except for free-form jazz. I can't stand that genre," I replied flatly.

"What's free-form jazz?" asked Twilight.

"Trixie likes free-form jazz, Michael -- what is it about that type of music you don't like?" she asked.

"There doesn't seem to be any structure to it, no organized rhythm or melody -- that, and the fact that I generally don't care for it much. John Coltrane's music is about as close to free-form jazz as I can take, and even then it's only in small doses. Girl Group music, on the other hand, is one of my favorite genres," I explained.

"Trixie has never heard of such a genre," she offered quizzically. Twilight expressed a similar sentiment.

"Here's your pancakes, Mike," the dragon offered. "You want some syrup for them? Butter?"

"Syrup, yes, please. Butter, no thanks. Thanks again, Spike -- you too, Twilight," I replied warmly. I took a moment to savor the aroma of the pancakes before requesting a knife and fork, which were quickly brought to me courtesy of Twilight's telekinetic aura. I couldn't help but be transfixed by her magic skill, causing her to giggle. I cut squares into my cakes, then poured syrup on them and tucked in. A smile crossed my lips as the food was every bit as good as I had hoped it would be. "My compliments to the chef, excellent work,"

"Thanks, Mike," he replied, flipping the next set of pancakes over. We made some more small talk over breakfast, as I ate another three pancakes after finishing off the first three, my hunger being fully sated by this meal.

"Spike, I need you to take a letter for me," the librarian stated.

"Sure thing, Twi, go ahead," he responded, ink quill and parchment at the ready.

"Dear Princess Celestia, I have some interesting news for you -- a human visitor has made his way here and is currently staying with me. He has requested a meeting with you at your earliest convenience. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle," the librarian stated in a dull monotone. Spike finished writing and used his breath to send the missive. I wondered silently how long it would take for a response, but was taken quite by surprise by a blinding flash of white light and a pale golden POP as the Solar Princess made her arrival known. Trixie uttered something just barely above her breath as she tried to retreat to the main room of the library.

"Twilight, my faithful student! Ah, I see -- you are the human Twilight spoke of?" the Alicorn asked, addressing me directly with her gaze. She offered what appeared to be half a smile.

"Your Majesty, I am Michael Walker, and yes, you are correct, I am indeed the human of which your student spoke. It is my sincere hope that I can receive your blessing to remain here," I replied reverently, bowing deeply.

"How is it you managed to come here? You obviously are not from Equestria," she mused. Trixie crept back into the kitchen to watch, though she tried to keep as much distance between herself and the Alicorn, who gave the show-mare a small grin. "Trixie, you may observe this conversation if you wish -- you are not in trouble, though my student has informed me of some of your more egregious actions. She has also informed me you asked for her forgiveness and apologized for your actions. I was also informed your mind was under the control of an artifact, therefore I cannot hold you completely accountable for those actions. I merely ask that you not repeat such a mistake and hope you have learned a valuable lesson in the process."

"You have Trixie's word, your Highness," the show-mare offered with great sincerity, nearly prostrating herself before the Solar Princess, eliciting a warm smile.

"You may rise, Trixie. So, Michael? Would you care to enlighten me as to your origin?"

"Of course, your Majesty. I come from a planet of some seven billion or so humans, occupying over 200 separate sovereign states, each with its own form or system of governance. We humans speak over 6000 different languages and dialects, our skin color is almost every shade of pink, tan, brown, yellow, and red, though not as brilliant as some of the ponies I've seen. The country I come from is called the United States of America, a land of some 300 million or so. We speak English, primarily, but there are some who have come from other lands who maintain their own particular language and acquire English as a second language. I have encountered many people who are in the process of learning English and don't speak it very well and it can make my job somewhat frustrating when I'm trying to communicate with them certain needs," I explained.

"What sort of job do you have, or had, while you were on your home world?"

"I was a package courier -- I delivered packages which had been pre-ordered, then shipped overseas. My job was to deliver these items to their respective customers and obtain signatures for their release. I also was required to pick up for shipment those items which were being sent to other countries and process the waybills, which were used to track each package on their way to their respective destinations. I was allowed to drive a vehicle owned by the company I represented, but I was also required to wear the uniform of that company as well."

"So, you were something like a ... mailmare?" asked Twilight.

"Much the way a postman delivers mail, a package courier fills essentially the same role," I replied, offering a smile. "But unlike Derpy, my geographical knowledge of my area resulted in a very low misdelivery rate."

"Um, Michael, she may carry that name -- wait, you haven't met her! How do you know about her?"

"Well, it has something to do with a television show I had the pleasure of watching every once in awhile. Um, you know what television is, right?" I asked the librarian, who gave me another puzzled look. "Uh, you know what movies are?" She nodded her head. "Okay, television is similar to movies, except the screen is much smaller and the programming can be selected by changing the channel, which is the frequency of a particular station's transmitter. Television basically takes a signal which is sent by a station via its transmitter, which operates at a specific frequency, usually measured in megahertz, i.e., cycles per second. The signal is picked up by antenna and then the television decodes the signal and images are shown on a picture tube, which is the most important part of a television set. A couple of knobs are used to change the frequency, or channels, but if there aren't any stations whose signals are strong enough to be received by the antenna, the picture tube will only display a field of alternating black and white dots, sometimes referred to as snow," I explained.

"What about programming? You mentioned programming," Twilight mused as she scribbled on parchment.

"Yes, well, each television station could be affiliated with a particular network, or broadcasting company. The shows which appeared on each station could match what was set by those broadcasting companies, or a station could be an independent one, broadcasting whatever programming they desired, so long as it complied with regulations established by the Federal Communications Commission, a regulatory agency empowered by the government to impose certain standards --"

"Trixie grows bored of these tedious explanations," she muttered as she sauntered off into the main room again. The Solar Princess seemed to have a somewhat bored expression on her face, but Twilight was giving me this big goofy grin.

"I can't believe how smart he is!" the librarian exclaimed.

"You seem to be well-versed in a great many topics, Michael -- if you don't mind me changing the subject, is there a particular reason you're here?" asked the Alicorn.

"Ah, the sixty-four thousand dollar question. Last night before I laid down to sleep, I made a wish to wake up here in Equestria, laying next to Twilight -- forgive me, please -- as she is my favorite pony. It is my desire to, um, marry her, if that's not too much to ask, your Majesty," I stated, trepidation evident in my voice as it trembled a bit.

The Alicorn smiled warmly at me. "That is not my decision to make, Michael, however, I would ask Twilight her opinion on that matter. Such a decision is hers, though I feel it might interfere with her studies on the magic of friendship. If Twilight is willing to marry you, I have no objection, save that you allow yourself to be transformed into a pony for the sake of conformity with Equestrian law. I would ask you, Michael, if you have no objection to such a transformation."

I beamed a big smile. "Your Majesty, I would be honored, but before I decide on a permanent transformation, I would request such a transformation on a temporary or trial basis, so that I might acclimate to the loss of my hands. I would hope you might be willing to let me experience life as a unicorn mare for that trial period, though I think Twilight might want to have me as a stallion."

Celestia cocked her head toward me, giving me an odd glance. "Are you sure you would be interested in being a mare? You are a male, as I have discerned from your ... anatomy ... and your request baffles me somewhat."

"If I may be allowed to explain, your Majesty, this is not my first visit to Equestria -- I have visited a slightly different version of Equestria, where I occupied a copy of Twilight's body -- I --"

The Alicorn interrupted me, a look of shock on her face -- I didn't think I could do that to her. "You -- I find that difficult to believe, Michael. Please explain yourself."

"The hard part for me to believe was that that particular transformation was the result of an earlier wish I had made, your Majesty." This mention caused her to give me a wide-eyed stare. "Yeah, I know -- unbelievable. My human wife accompanied me on that visit, though she didn't seem too appreciative of being in Equestria."

"What? You're already married? Why -- why --" the librarian stammered almost angrily.

"Michael, if it is your desire to marry my faithful student, I implore you to divorce your wife," the Solar Princess stated quite firmly, fixing me with a stern gaze.

"I do not know if I'll be able to return to my home world to obtain a divorce decree, your Majesty," I stated with more than a little disappointment in my voice, hanging my head in shame.

"Hmm. Perhaps I might be able to bend the rules a little -- would you care to go into a little more detail about your previous visit? I am curious to know how it went," Celestia offered, softening her tone toward me.

"Wait, he told me he met me while in a copy of my body! He said we pulled a prank on Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash -- what else did you do? You met my BBBFF, right?" Twilight asked, causing the Alicorn to chuckle.

"There was a little more to it -- Pinkie gave me a taste of Marzipan Mascarpone Meringue Madness cake -- and yeah, meeting your brother while in a copy of your body caused a bit of confusion -- he got mad at me for succeeding in leading him to believe I actually was you -- then after Princess Celestia sent me and my wife back home, she visited me later to inform me that Discord had abducted you. Apparently, another human had been transformed into a pony, but was being forced to share the body with the pony he'd been transformed into -- Rarity, in this case."

"Ah, you got to meet the God of Chaos! You survived, obviously -- how did you manage to defeat him?" asked Celestia, a big grin on her face. Apparently, she seemed to be impressed, as was Twilight, who now beamed an even bigger smile.

"He's full of surprises! I -- Michael, how did you do it?"

"Well, I had quite a bit of help from the Elements of Harmony -- but if you can believe this, I was able to accomplish something even more incredible than that. After defeating -- oh wait, you wanted to know how I did it. It turns out that Pinkie Pie had decided to throw me a party at Canterlot Castle, with me as the guest of honor. Princess Celestia teleported the human Rarity and myself to the castle and had me travel to Ponyville to assemble the Element bearers and bring them to the castle to formulate a strategy.

"My attempts to locate the bearers failed, so I teleported back to the castle empty-hooved. Princess Celestia then escorted me to the Royal Ballroom, where I was surprised by Pinkie Pie's party awaiting me -- but because I am terrified of large parties, I broke down and started crying, refusing to enter and mingle with the others. Ultimately, Twilight cajoled me to enter and at the very least, try to enjoy myself as best I could."

"What? You are -- terrified -- of parties?" asked a certain pink earth pony who popped into the kitchen from under the table. "But -- but -- Mikey! I have a special party planned just for you! You gotta come!"

"Oh, Pinkie, I wish I could, but -- I have some very bad memories of a certain birthday party held on my behalf when I was just four years old. It ended disastrously, with me crying my eyes out and running to my room, determined never to attend another party in my entire lifetime -- a commitment I have remained true to for the past 46 years, and one I don't intend to break, not even for you, Pinkie," I stated sadly.

"But -- how are we supposed to hold a wedding ceremony if you hate parties?" asked Pinkie, her mane starting to show signs of deflation. "I -- my -- I'm the Element of Laughter! You're -- you -- um, can't you make an exception?"

"Maybe you don't know about humans all that well, Pinkie -- if we set our minds to a certain objective, we can be of such singlemindedness of purpose that we will stop at nothing to accomplish that objective, barring excessive difficulty or insurmountable obstacle," I stated flatly. "Even then, human ingenuity can sometimes overcome the seemingly impossible. I know when I faced Nightmare Moon alone that all seemed lost," I added.

"You -- um, how?" asked Twilight, dumbfounded by my statement.

"Michael, it simply is not possible for you to have met her," Celestia stated flatly. "Clearly you are telling some very tall tales."

"Your Majesty, I state truth -- while I was in a copy of Twilight's body, I teleported the human Rarity with me to another universe, one where Nightmare Moon had succeeded in bringing eternal night-time to Equestria. I met up with Pinkie Pie in universe, though her condition was dire. Once again, I attempted to locate the other Element bearers, to no avail. It was while we were in Cloudsdale looking for Rainbow Dash that the evil Princess showed up, threatening to kill me in the same fashion she had killed Twilight. I had formulated an experimental spell to call upon alternate universe versions of myself to enter the one I was in and assist me in defeating the Nightmare, rescuing that version of Princess Celestia from her imprisonment in the Sun and extricating the human from his imprisonment in Rarity's body. We also succeeded in separating Luna from the evil Nightmare."

"Michael! An experimental spell? Really?" Twilight asked, her grin nearly splitting her face. The Alicorn turned her gaze toward me, a smile on her face as well as she expressed a similar sentiment.

"Yeah, I called it 'shimmer.' By creating a portal to alternate universes by way of altering the electro-magnetic spectrum, I was able to summon multiple copies of myself, using my shimmering body as that portal. A side-effect of this spell was that the rift in the electro-magnetic spectrum caused my body to assume a state of ethereality as well as create audio-visual effects assiociated with creating such a portal. I allowed four copies of myself to use my body as that portal with each casting of that spell, though one of my copies assumed Twilight's elemental form, something I thought was rather interesting as her body appeared as living flame."

The librarian scribbled some notes down on parchment as a light-bulb went off over her head. Celestia frowned for a moment. "I would certainly hope you would use such a spell sparingly," she admonished.

"The reverse of the spell is called 'unshimmer,' which allows the copies to return to their specific universes when they are no longer needed. One other side-effect of casting this spell was that I lost my ability to use magic -- that, or perhaps I had exceeded my allotted time to remain in Twilight's body." I heard her audibly gasp when I mentioned this.

"As I had surmised, such a spell would probably carry a very steep price," the Alicorn mused. "Truthfully, Michael, I must admit to being quite impressed by your resourcefulness and creativity -- and if it is my blessing you wish to receive, consider it given. As for your desire to be transformed into a unicorn mare -- a most unusual request given your present gender -- I suspect you have an ulterior motive for such a desire?" she asked, flashing a mischievous grin.

"It is my desire to experience being on the receiving end of intimate physical pleasure than on the giving end, your Majesty," I grinned. "And I would like to experience those sensations firsthoof, if that's not too much to ask."

The Alicorn's grin widened. "I would be pleased to show you what sort of sensations you'd be able to experience as a unicorn mare -- is there a specific desire for your appearance?"

"Yes, your Majesty -- I would desire to be tall, slender, graceful -- a coat color of deepest purple, lots of hair for a mane, a relatively short tail, both to be of a two-tone light and pale blue -- and eyes of a deep aquamarine color," I stated. "I would also like to exude both cuteness and sexiness at the same time."

"Trixie would like to see what Michael looks like as a unicorn mare," the show-mare mused. She watched with keen interest as the Alicorn enveloped my body with her magic as the transformation started to occur. Twilight had initially thought such a request highly amusing, but as my arms lengthened and started turning a very deep purple, my legs shortening and becoming much more slender as well as that dark purple, her expression turned to one of wonderment. My hair turned two slightly different shades of blue and began cascading over my head, which seemed to change its shape somewhat. My human ears disappeared, only to be replaced by pony ears at the top of the sides of my head. A long horn began growing from the top of my forehead and my eyes grew much larger, the irises changing to a very lovely shade of aquamarine. I was reminded of Fluttershy's eye color when I gazed at my reflection after the transformation had completed, though the sensation of the transformation was quite pleasant. A few moments was all it took, but the change was quite impressive.

"Trixie likes the new you, Michael!" she grinned.

"In this form, I desire to be called 'Amethyst Shadow'," I stated confidently. "La, la, la, la, laaaa!" I sang, testing out my new female voice, then giggled a little. "Yep, I definitely like this!"

"Amethyst Shadow, huh? There's a pony named Amethyst Star who lives here in Ponyville," the lavender mare observed. "Where did you come up with that name? It sounds like you had already picked out a name for such an occasion."

"Very perceptive, Twi -- you are correct, though the circumstances regarding that name choice are a secret I am not allowed to divulge, for personal reasons," I replied flatly.

"Oooh! Hey, Ammy! I have to plan another party for you!" chirped the pink party pony as she popped in yet again, then disappeared.

"This is ridiculous -- is there anything Pinkie can't do?" I asked incredulously.

"How well do you know her, Amethyst?" Twilight giggled. "I gave up trying to figure her out --"

"Yeah, I know -- as if I hadn't accomplished the impossible, I know SHE can," I giggled.

"Trixie likes your new name, too!" she chirped. I saw her ogling me in my new form, which brought a sly smile to my lips.

"That's not the only thing about me you like either, is it, Trixie?" I asked, widening my grin a little. I decided to trot a little bit to get my pony legs back -- this new form had me a bit taller than I was last time around and it took me a few moments of trotting around to find my center of gravity and balance. "Hmm, not bad," I mused.

"Amethyst, please don't embarrass Trixie like that," the show-mare half-said, half-asked, giving me a pained look.

"My apologies, Trixie -- sometimes it's tempting for me to poke fun unnecessarily, but I couldn't resist -- you find my new body quite attractive -- well, so do I! I also like my new voice, and I might choose to sing one of my favorite songs to see my voice is as good as I think it might be," I offered warmly, eliciting a smile from the show-mare.

"Trixie hopes you would choose to marry her instead of Sparkle, Amethyst!" she grinned.

"Ugh! Please, Trixie, give me some time! Weren't you paying attention --" I began.

"Um, Amethyst, I'm not ready to get married just yet, but ... I appreciate your offer," Twilight stated warmly. "However, I would like for you to stay here so I can get to know you better, and I want you to explain more things to me about your home world! What you have already told me is utterly fascinating! I also have to admit, your technical explanations of the minutiae of certain subjects tells me that your intelligence nearly matches mine! And that shimmer spell! I had been toying with the idea of using the electro-magnetic spectrum to create a rift in the fabric of space-time, but you -- you were able to perform it!"

"In your body, no less, which is a testament to the level of magic you possess," I added, smiling broadly at her compliments. "Truthfully, Twilight, I have taken personality tests which indicate my personality very nearly matches yours -- so the two of us might be as close as peas in a pod. I would like to stay with you."

"Amethyst, I would like for you to accompany me to Canterlot," the Solar Princess stated warmly. "You possess a great deal of knowledge which could prove to be quite useful to us. By the way, have you made a decision on whether or not to remain in this form I have given you?"

"Your Majesty, I will need some more time to acclimate myself to this new form, but I will admit that I rather like it quite a lot. This is exactly what I was hoping you'd transform me into and I deeply appreciate this gift you have given me. I would like to express my appreciation in a fashion of your desire, whatever it may be. I would like to provide you with whatever service you wish of me," I stated reverently, bowing before the Alicorn.

"Trixie wants to know if she can accompany Amethyst as well," the show-mare requested as she bowed before the Solar Princess.

"Trixie, you just got here," I observed, a hint of exasperation in my voice. As I turned to look in her direction, the azure mare gave me a grin and licked her lips seductively, a gesture both mentor and student noticed immediately.

The Alicorn gave me another mischievous grin and, in a nearly failed attempt to stifle her giggles, she said, "I don't see why not." This almost non-chalant answer to Trixie's request caused me some degree of consternation and the Princess to lose the battle against stifling her giggles. "Amethyst, you shouldn't take yourself so seriously."

"You promised Trixie you would do her, Amethyst!" the show-mare giggled. "After all, you did Twilight, so it's my turn now!"

The Alicorn turned toward me and shot me the dirtiest look I'd ever seen, causing me to freeze up, an expression of deep shock and surprise on my face. "Amethyst, please explain yourself."

The librarian came to my aid at this point. "Princess, I asked him to, while he was still in his human body -- if you were to experience how skillful he is with his hands, I think you might be willing to let him pleasure you the same way he did ME! It felt ... so good! Please, Princess, don't be too angry with him -- he let me know I could stop him any time I wanted to ... ooooooh, just thinking about it makes me feel all tingly inside!" she cooed loudly.

"Perhaps I was a little hasty in transforming you, Michael -- I would like to experience what you did with my student -- and depending on how well you perform, I may actually reward you well," she stated warmly, her smile returning once again. She enveloped me in her aura again, returning me to my previous human state, the reverse transformation taking just a few seconds, causing me some discomfort.

"I guess I have no choice in this matter. Your Majesty, I apologize for taking advantage of your student like that."

"Just come over here and do for me the same as you did with my student, Michael," she commanded.

I walked the few steps to stand beside her and reached behind her left ear with my right hand and began scratching her head, her mane seeming to move aside to allow me to scratch behind her ears. A smile crept on her lips as my touch seemed to be having an immediate effect on her. The sensation of her pearlescent coat of hair impressed me as I made my way down her neck to her withers, still scratching and digging my nails in deeply to stimulate her skin. She moaned deeply in pleasure as my touch worked its magic on her.

"Ooooh, Michael! I wish Twilight had told me about this earlier! What else did you do?" she asked, her smile widening. I responded by working my fingers in circles, rubbing into the muscles just forward of her withers, then slowly along her back, along the sides of her body, eliciting deeper moans from the Alicorn. "Ah, Michael, is there more? What else did you do?" she asked, her voice having now become quite breathy as my touching had aroused her further. I answered that question by running my hands up and down her hindquarters, rubbing circles on her flanks and tracing the large sun-shaped cutie marks on both sides.

"Mmmmh, you did more than that, didn't you?" she asked. Although I couldn't see her face, I could tell she must have been grinning broadly when she asked that question. My response was to run my hands up and down her hind legs, working circles into the slender muscles of her cannons, lightly caressing her hind hooves after she had told me to remove her hoofguards. "Oooh, Michael!" she cooed as I ran my fingers over her teats, tweaking the nipples a little to gauge her reaction. I ran my right hand along the fleshy folds of her pussy, feeling just how wet she was.

"Oooh, you're a naughty filly, aren't you, Celestia!" I giggled as I slid three fingers into her sopping wet sex, eliciting a very deep and breathy moan from the Alicorn.

"YES! I've been a naughty filly! Rut me, Michael! Rut me like the filthy naughty filly I am!" she exclaimed loudly.

The librarian and the show-mare watched in amazement as I reduced the Alicorn to a quivering mass of nerve endings -- my manhood was once again fully erect and rock hard, and the Princess' stature meant I didn't have to bend my knees to slide it effortlessly into her dripping wet snatch.

"OOOOOH! YESSS!" she hissed through clenched teeth as I hilted inside her, thrusting back and forth to try to push her to a powerful orgasm. Her body tensed up quickly in eager anticipation of the building tsunami of pleasure and she began rocking her hips back and forth against me to intensify the sensation I was bringing her. "Oooh, Michael! Go faster! Go faster! Harder! Fuck me harder!" she cooed. I turned my gaze to the two unicorns, who had decided to forego any pretense of modesty and were busy licking each other's marehood, moaning and cooing in pleasure at the sensation each was giving the other. This sight seemed to push me onward, my urge beginning to build like an avalanche. Celestia noticed this as well and giggled at the sight.

"Unh! Unh! Ooh, ssshit! Unh!" I grunted as I sped up my thrusting, bucking against her as hard and as fast as I dared -- I was getting close, but I wanted to push her over the edge first. I didn't have to wait long as her body tensed up very stiffly. She then let loose the longest and deepest moan I have ever heard, something that was so erotic it caused me to climax with her simultaneously. "OOOOHH, SSSSSHHIIIITT! CUMMMMING!" I shouted.

"OOOOOHH, FFFFFUCCKK! AAAAAHHH! YESSSS!" the Alicorn moaned as she surrendered herself to the tsunami of pleasure, riding it long and hard, her body shaking and shuddering with her climax before she relaxed, luxuriating in the afterglow of her orgasm. "Ah, Michael! As I promised, you shall be rewarded."

"Trixie wants a turn with him as well, your Highness," the show-mare pleaded. Before the words had even left her mouth, I was once again enveloped in the Alicorn's magic aura and transformed back into Amethyst Shadow. Trixie expressed a degree of disappointment at that, but her expression changed when I licked my lips at her and grinned, pointing my right fore-hoof at her.

"That's not the only reward I'm giving you, Amethyst," the Alicorn stated warmly, smiling broadly at me. "There is another gift I would like to give you," she added, teleporting a rather unusual amulet to me. "This amulet will increase your magic power -- normally, I am reluctant to provide these to unicorns, as their power is usually sufficient for their needs -- but you are a special case, Amethyst, and it is my desire to see you rewarded for your performance."

I took a moment to analyze the amulet -- it was a triangular metal object which seemed to be made of gold. It was highlighted with white accents and had a deep blue diamond adorning the center of it. It was to be worn as an inverted triangle, which appeared to have a unicorn's head atop the center and wings flaring out from the upper corners.

"An Alicorn Amulet? Your Majesty, I am not worthy of such a talisman," I stated reverently.

"You have earned it, Amethyst -- consider it a gift of friendship --"

"Trixie would like one of those as well, your Highness," the show-mare offered reverently.

"I would like to know what you have done which would merit such a gift," the Alicorn half-said, half-asked, giving the azure mare a stern look, causing her to shrink back a little.

"Um, well, uh ... Trixie ... Uh, I, uhh..." she stuttered, trying to come up with something she had done which was worthy of the Solar Princess' respect. Unfortunately, she couldn't think of anything at the moment.

"That's what I thought -- as I stated earlier, a talisman of this sort is a very rare gift, only for those I deem worthy. Twilight has informed me of your previous actions -- including those when you were in possession of a similar artifact -- and other than apologize for your mistakes, you have done little to earn my favor."

"Begging your pardon, your Majesty, but would it be too much to ask her to accompany us to your Castle?" I asked.

"To be honest, Amethyst, I'm not sure if I can allow that," she replied flatly. The show-mare gave her a pleading look, tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

"Please, your Highness, Trixie promises she will behave herself! Trixie promises to be a good pony!"

"How about if I accept her as my responsibility? If she steps out of line, I will accept responsibility --"

"That is an extremely noble gesture on your part, Amethyst, however I cannot honor your request. Trixie must prove her worthiness in the eyes of my student before she is welcome in my Castle."

"Your Majesty, I request that I be allowed to remain here with Twilight and Trixie," I stated reverently and bowed before the Alicorn yet again.

"I'm afraid I cannot honor that request either, Amethyst. You have very important information and I have need of your services at my Castle. Twilight, please keep an eye on Trixie and let me know if she misbehaves again."

"Begging your pardon, your Majesty, but I would request I be allowed to visit Trixie perhaps once a week," I half-asked, half-said. I saw Trixie smile at my request.

"I believe I can honor that specific request, Amethyst. Let us be off," the Alicorn stated flatly as she wrapped her left wing around me and teleported the both of us to her bedchamber.
