Chapter One: Seriously?

While it may not be appropriate for a Princess to seek romance below her station it is not denied, merely frowned upon.

Twilight sighed, looking down at the next batch of papers to read through and sign. She had gone through eternal stacks of official documents, all of which had flaws or problems she had to correct, meaning many had to be taken back to be rewritten before being returned for her inspection once more.

It was gruelling work but somepony had to do it and as Celestia and Luna were taking their much needed vacation, it fell on Twilight’s shoulders to ensure the kingdom ran smoothly.

Sure she didn’t have to worry about raising and lowering certain celestial bodies, the Princesses still took care of that... wherever they were... having fun...

Twilight sighed, she wasn’t used to this kind of strain. It had been easy at first, her years of endless reading, writing, and studying had at least prepared her for some of the tasks she had taken upon herself to do but what she hadn’t considered was how mind numbingly boring it could be!

She looked up to the clock, she was getting annoyed, it had only been three days since she had convinced the two monarchs to have some time off and already she realised just how much of a mistake that was... sure she was happy to give the two sisters a break from their strangled lives but...

Was this the future that lay in store for her?

She shook her head, two weeks more, that was all she had to do, everything would be fine if she just held it together. With a flash of her horn she pulled the next stack closer, taking the first sheet she read through its contents...

Lord Slight of Hoof’s proposal for taxing farmers on the western edge of Equestria... seven times now she had sent this back, with firm instructions that the lord was to not make himself the chief beneficiary of the funds collected... seven times now he had simply reworded it in an attempt to deceive her.

This would make it eight...

Twilight groaned audibly, she didn’t have the time for this nonsense! This lordling had gone too far once again, trying to take advantage of Twilight’s exhaustion to get his own way...

“Guard!” Twilight yelled at the door, her patience consumed in the heat of her annoyance.

The door to her office opened revealing a grey unicorn in golden armor, “Yes Princess?”

“Go find and arrest Lord Slight of Hoof this instant!”

“Yes Princess!” He declared with a look of stern loyalty.

Before he left Twilight suddenly realised what she was about to do and hesitated, “No wait!” The guard froze, looking to her for instructions. A million thoughts ran through Twilight’s mind, not many made sense except the few that were arguing vocally in her head.

“That fool must think we’re an idiot!” Her anger growled, “Who does he think we are!?”

“He’s obviously just testing us, we are new after all.” Her Intelligence answered simply.

“He’s trying to take advantage of us!” Anger raged, “Lock him up! Throw away the key!”

“And brick up the door!” Her madness agreed... oh she still had that... that’s embarrassing...

“We can’t do that!” Her Good nature cried out. “I mean... it wouldn’t be right!”

“I agree, it would make us appear to others as a tyrant.” Intelligence added.

“So we just sit here and let him insult us!?” Anger flared, a metaphorical mane exploding in fire.

“It’s better than embarrassing ourselves!” Intelligence countered, “It’s bad enough we were caught stuffing down that banana split!”

“Oh dear...” Embarrassment blushed, turning its back on the conversation and covering its metaphorical ears.

“Pffft!” Anger spat, “Just behead him already and be done with it!”

“Shove a banana split in his mouth!” Madness giggled.

“Better yet, hang him!” Anger grinned hungrily, “Publicly for all to see, nopony would dare trouble us again!”

“That’s insane!” Good balked.

“And incredibly stupid,” Intelligence groaned tiredly.

“We never did finish that banana split...” Greed sighed with a deep sadness.

There was a moment’s united silence in memory of that unfinished dessert.

“So what do you say we do then?” Anger snarled finally, struggling to contain itself.

“Princess?” The guard mumbled awkwardly.

Twilight blinked with confusion, wherever she had just been it had claimed all of her attention. Blushing heavily the young princess fell back onto her seat, “Never mind... I’ll deal with it myself later.” The guard waited causing the alicorn to frown in confusion, it dawned on her though and she remembered Celestia’s advice.

'Don’t forget to dismiss them dear or they’ll stand around like lemons waiting for you to do so.'

At first it had been funny... but after the hundredth time it had gotten annoying. “Ah yes, thank you, that will be all.”

“Princess,” He nodded, closing the door and returning to his station just outside.

Twilight shook her head, they must all think she was insane or something... putting Lord Slight’s attempt aside for a moment she took the next one... It wasn’t much better. Twilight groaned audibly once again, this was going to end up driving her to murder!

She needed a break, a distraction, anything just to end the tedium of...

Blinking clear the rubble from her eyes Twilight was left in a near empty room as all the sheets before her flew from the suddenly disintegrated desk and out into the newly made giant window in the wall to her right. The boom suddenly struck, charging as fast as it could to catch up with the blur that had created it perhaps not a moment ago.

She looked about the room, or as best she could with all the dust in the way. The desk was gone, so were the forms, the white sheets taking their chance at freedom in the sunlit world beside her... the sudden realization that she had spent the entire night without rest doing this rushed to her mind.

“Urgh...”

Twilight looked to the cause of all this mess, the sudden burst of blinding rainbow light and the mass of noise that could deafen a herd of elephants. There was of course a response to this and it was one Twilight had perfected to nearly an artform during her time in Ponyville.

“Rainbow Dash!!!” Twilight bellowed angrily,

The guard suddenly appeared, two of them, both with ears ringing and stunned confusion written plainly across their faces, the impact must have effected them, luckily Twilight’s natural instincts had produced a shield to protect herself from the shockwave that had hit the tower.

More guards appeared, all aiming spears at Rainbow Dash while the original two attempted against all reason to stumble around rather than remain stationary. There was a mass silence as the event rolled on, Twilight decided to wait it out, any break in her work was a break she was grateful for, even if she were annoyed with a certain cerulean pegasus.

Though to be honest, not that annoyed.

“H...hey Twilight!” Dash grinned, looking up to seven spear points aimed at her face, “Err... sorry for crashing in like that!”

Twilight allowed a gentle sigh to escape from her lips, this was inevitably going to lead to complaints, masons, and bills... but that was in the future... and for once in Twilight’s life she decided to let future Twilight deal with it. "Its alright gentlemen, I'll handle this."

"Are you sure Princess?" The largest guard asked with a raised brow, his gruff voice serious and not at all amused, "She's a troublemaker."

"Hey!" Dash complained, "Thanks a lot Marsh!"

Twilight tried her best to hide a smile behind a hoof, "Yes thank you Marshal, I can handle her."

It took a short while to explain to certain officials that her previous office had been...destroyed by a miss timed Sonic Rainboom stunt gone terribly wrong. In the grand scheme of things Twilight was glad she had gotten used to these sudden entrances Dash was so famous for, otherwise she may have just had a heart attack when one side of the room had disappeared and rained sideways down upon her.

The Princess had abandoned her work for a few hours, seeing as all the forms had to be gathered and a replacement office made ready. With nothing to do for a while she had retired to her room, which she found at the start of her term had been moved up into one of the palaces many towers. It was warmer if nothing else, only the forty three books she had brought with her lined the walls but they were enough to make her feel at home.

It was more luxurious than she was used too, high class furniture, hoof carved and trimmed with gold, and a huge bed with silk bedding. It even had a small chandelier! The circular room was odd but rather enjoyable, a strange change to what she was used to yet still comfortable.

She had showered of course, then forced her adventurous friend to do the same, it would not do well to traipse dust and rubble everywhere they went, especially now that Twilight had appearances to keep. The princess sat in the center of her room, her towel still wrapped around her body.

"So... what are you doing here?" Twilight asked as Dash exited the attached washroom while using a towel to savagely dry her mane.

"You saw me crash through the wall right?"

Twilight rolled her eyes, she didn't quite believe this was an accident, "I doubt you would make such a serious blunder like that so far from home."

"Well..." Dash hesitated, "Maybe, not exactly."

"You know I am very busy right?"

"That's why I decided to cause a distraction!" She grinned.

"Rainbow..." Twilight groaned.

"Give me a break Twi," Dash complained. "I just wanted to see you is all."

"There are better ways to do it then making holes in the palace," Twilight answered seriously.

"Yeah... I guess..." Dash shrugged.

Twilight rolled her eyes again, it was so hard to make this pony see sense, "As long as you don't go breaking any more walls I guess I'll forgive you."

"Cool!" Dash grinned, dumping her towel randomly onto the floor, "I'm bored, lets go do something."

"I sorry Dash, I'm just too busy for..."

"Sometimes you're so boring Twi!" The pegasus complained, "I know you take this job seriously but come on!"

"Its not that simple," Twilight argued, "It takes a lot to run a kingdom and..."

"I bet you haven't slept in two days."

Correct, much to Twilight's chagrin. "That doesn't..."

"If you don't relax your head's going to explode!"

"I have responsibilities!"

"Laaaaaaaame!"

"Dash!" Twilight snapped.

"Well it is!"

"I would have expected better of you," Twilight admonished, "Did I bother you when you were off at the Wonderbolts Academy!?"

"Well no..."

"This isn't a game! I have a kingdom to run! If I'm not diligent the whole of Equestria could fall apart!"

"C'mon Twi..." Dash muttered, not really interested in the whole speech thing.

"Sometimes Dash you really make me angry!" Twilight declared, turning her back on her friend.

The was silence for a moment as Twilight let this sink in, perhaps this time the rainbow maned nuisance would get the point... looking at the pegasus from the corner of her eye she took note of the amused expression aimed in her direction.

"What!?" Twilight demanded.

"You know how silly you sound right?"

Twilight, in a fit of anger took her towel off and launched it at her friend, Dash laughed and didn't stop it from hitting her face with a somewhat wet flomph. Throwing the towel off from her face the pagasus continued to chuckle.

"Its not funny!" Twilight complained.

"Its a little funny," Dash disagreed.

There was no speaking to this pony, none at all... all the stress that had been alleviated by her shower had returned to Twilight like a force to be reckoned with, or a really angry pensioner driving a carriage down a steep hill.

"Hey Twi..."

Back still to the pegasus, Twilight responded with a huffed, "What?"

“Y’know... you’re kinda cute when you pout.”

“What!?” Twilight froze.

Dash moved closer, leaning her chest into Twilight’s back and placing her lips by the Princess’s ear, “All this work must get boring, what d’ya say we have some fun to wind down, huh?”

Twilight couldn’t believe this, her friend, her most trusted loyal friend was... was... coming on to her! During this time of fragility when she needed her friend’s loyalty most! It was a terrible act of betrayal and totally inappropriate! And rude! And wrong! And... insulting!

Twilight was trying to form a rebuke in her mind and turned to vent her pent up rage, her eyes wide with indignation and her voice raising an octave or two. “Hmmmf drrrr oooo...” Twilight attempted, finding herself lip locked with the rainbow maned pony.

Dash was as surprised as she was judging by her expression, Twilight had forgot to move away from the pegasus before spinning... and in doing so she had only made the situation worse.

However Twilight found herself lost, Dash’s lips were so soft... so warm... so inviting... losing herself for a moment she felt her head go dizzy and hooves wrap around her before she collapsed. Her body shivered as the feeling of electricity shot up her spine, releasing a tiny moan of ecstasy from her throat as the surge of pleasure overcome her senses...

Panic overrode desire quickly though and she suddenly threw herself away using her magic to do so, which resulted in her sudden flight across the room. “What am I doing!?” Twilight gasped in horror.

She landed on a divan, which though at first was a relief became something else as Dash quickly followed and leaned over her.

On her back staring up at bright seductive magenta eyes, Twilight found her breathing go heavy, her heart start to hammer, and herself eeping like a certain yellow pegasus friend of hers.

“You’re such a virgin Twi,” Dash murmured, her warm smile mercilessly, “Let me help you with that...”

Before the Pegasus could kiss her Twilight teleported herself out of the palace and into the royal gardens, falling into the pond with both shock and relief. The sploosh overtook her and she struggled to regain control, dragging herself from the pond and quickly shaking herself dry.

Embarrassed she looked about the garden and gratefully concluded that no one had been there to see that moment of uncouth behavior. She took a moment to compose herself and looked up to the tower in which her room waited... currently occupied by Rainbow Dash... who was down looking at her from the window.

“I’ve never had that effect before!” Dash laughed, her voice carrying down to her from even that distance... which meant she was not the only one to hear the loud mouthed Pegasus.

“Shhhh!” Twilight exclaimed, waving a hoof to indicated the pony should lower her voice... maybe go away too...

“Well?” Dash asked, Twilight’s enhanced alicorn sight displaying the intense playful spark in the pegasi’s eyes. It made the purple pony shiver uncontrollably, “Are you coming up or should I come down there?”

Twilight balked, was she being serious? Surely Dash was just playing around, some kind of cruel joke... yeah... yeah! She was just fooling around, probably one of her pranks. Twilight just didn’t get many of Dash’s pranks, more often than not they just seemed pointless, soaking up time that could be put to studying.

THUMP

And then there was Dash, landing three paces away with a burning desire in her eyes, posed like a predator about to pounce, her tongue lightly licking her lips as she stalked slowly closer.

Twilight failed,

“Now... now I command you to stop playing around!”

“Who’s playing?” Rainbow Dash purred in return.

The pegasus pounced... Twilight ran... at this point there wasn’t much she could do, her ability to focus had now been destroyed so any magic would fail her, “Dash stop!” Twilight near screeched in panic as she took off, her wings beating heavily against the air in an attempt to escape.

There was only one thing on her mind right now, preventing all this from becoming a scandal.

Author's Note

So my first attempt at fluff/erotic play... it gets a bit "more" in the next chapters.
Everything's falling apart I guess, THE WALLS NO LONGER EXIST!
So yeah... to clop or not to clop... raise it to mature or keep it somewhat innocent?

I'll let you decide I guess.
