A NEW LIFE IN A NEW WORLD

Chapter 8

I awoke to the morning rays and to the feeling of two missing ponies. I looked around the room to see that they were nowhere in sight. I only shrugged as I figured that they were doing something else real quickly. I used this time alone to stretch my limbs as I got out of bed. I walked over to one of the dressers and pulled out my clothes for the day. Trixie did a good job putting my clothes away and made a note to pat her on the head for a job well done. I walked into the nearby bathroom and took my shower for the day.

I left the bathroom, followed by a cloud of steam. I was putting my shirt on when I noticed that both Trixie and Lightning Dust returned to the room. Trixie's outfit was a little more erotic then she wore the last time. She had a short frilly skirt that barely kept her lower region covered. Her top was a little more form fitting and made her breast perk out a little more. She wore knee high sock and high heels. Her entire clothing still held traces of latex and were a deep azure bluethe really complemented her.

Lightning Dust was dressed the same and seemed kind of happy in the clothes. The color of her attire was a forest green that made her eyes sparkle even. I saw the collar around her neck and wagged my finger for her to step forward. She was hesitant at first, not entirely surprised by her action but she finally stepped forward. She was only a few steps away as I grabbed the tag around the collar and looked at the tag. The tag had my name on it and this was enough to see that she was willing to go through with it.

"Good morning master. Did you sleep well?" Lightning Dust asked with a small smile.

"Good morning to you as well Dust and I did. Did you and Trixie get your clothes from Rarity?" I asked.

"She did, but she wasn't too keen on making the outfit for me." Lightning said a little disappointed.

"Trixie was kind enough to vouch for her and Rarity then made her the outfit as well." Trixie said as she stepped in.

"So there wasn't any problems this time?" I asked, making sure that they were behaving well when I wasn't around.

"Trixie made sure to keep her emotions in check and offered some advice to Lightning Dust as well." Trixie answered.

"I'm glad to hear that Trixie." I said.

A bright smile soon spread across Trixie's face from the complement. She held her place at the other side of the room until I called her forward. I saw that she wanted to leap in front of me, but she kept her composure and casually walked over. Casually putting it lightly as she swayed her hips heavily from side to side. She stopped a couple of steps in front of me and continued to smile. I extended my hand and ran it through her mane, letting her know that she did a good job. She hummed happily as she slightly leaned into my hand.

"Lightning Dust, please make my bed real quick." I commanded to the pegasus.

Lightning gave a slight bow before walking towards my bed and began fixing it. Trixie watched from the corner of her eye as the pegasus didn't let her smile falter while she made the bed. She was concerned the first time the pegasus was going to cause problems, but she could now see that she was very helpful. The unicorn was quite happy to have the pegasus in joining to be her master's submissive. She finished making the bed and walked back over to me. I gave her a few pats on the head, to which she gave a small, delightful squeal. with nothing left to do in my room, I left with the two mares in tow. I walked down the stairs to see Twilight and to my surprise, Rainbow Dash, Conversing with each other.

Rainbow Dash was first to notice me coming down the stairs and smiled as she waved to me. Her smile was short-lived when she saw Lightning Dust behind me. She didn't hesitate to walk past Twilight and get up in Lightning's face. Trixie and I backed away a little in case Dash did something reckless. I was kind of glad Twilight was here in case she did get out of hand. Rainbow continued to give a hard glare at the other pegasus before finally speaking.

"I want you to listen and listen well. If you pull ANY of that crazy shit that you did back at the academy and hurt Erik, I will break you like a Twig." Dash threatened.

I could see the fear in Lightning's eyes along with some anger telling her to yell at the other pegasus. I was ready to step in when I saw her take a small breath. She seemed to visibly calm down before she spoke to Dash.

"Thank you for the warning and I promise not to hurt my master." Lightning replied and then gave a slight bow before joining my side again.

Rainbow held her scowl for a few more seconds before finally letting herself relax. She gave me a look that said that she was sorry for her outburst, but she only did it because she didn't want me to get hurt. I gave her a reassuring smile to let her know that everything would be fine between us. I had nothing planned for when I left the library, but thanks to Dash's surprise visit, I could ask her about her friend.

"So Dash, where does Fluttershy live?" I asked since she peaked my interest when she mentioned her friend.

"She lives on the outskirts of town in her cottage. It's nestled next to the Everfree Forest." Dash said.

"Which direction is that?" I asked.

"Trixie should know where it's at since she has been here before, don't you Trixie?" Rainbow asked as she looked at the azure unicorn.

"Trixie knows the exact location of her home. Trixie would be glad to lead her master to her cottage." Trixie said happily.

With at least something to do for the next couple of hours, I gestured for Trixie to lead the way. The three of us left the library and left Rainbow and Twilight to continue their conversation. Trixie was happily in front, but not entirely as she stayed close to my side as we walked through town. Lightning was walking along my other side, trying her hardest to not let the other ponies bother. I nudged her shoulder and she turned around to me as I smiled at her. She seemed to relax from my smile as she had more confidence in her step.

The walk itself was pretty long, but we finally reached the outskirts and I could a cottage out in the distance. Trixie stopped being in the lead as she went to my side fully and gently wrapped her tail around my wrist. I felt Lightning do the same and let them do it since they had been behaving themselves. We reached the outside of the cottage and were standing outside of a white picket fence that surrounded a little pond. I noticed all the scurrying little animals which helped to give it a calming aura about it.

Happy with the scenery around the cottage, I walked towards the door. It was a nice solid oak door with a little birds nest in the middle. I lifted my hand and gave a few gentle knocks. I heard a couple of noises and then some shuffling as someone came to the door. I pressed down my clothing , at least wanting to make a nice first impression and smiled. The door opened to a pale, light grayish gold colored pegasus with a pale light grayish rose mane and tail. Her eyes were a beautiful moderate cyan that screamed adorableness. She was wearing a pair of tight pants and a sweater. The sweater didn't help much as I could clearly see her gigantic breasts. I was pulled from my staring when I heard a loud gasp.

"Oh my gosh. are you okay? You're bleeding." The pegasus said in a slightly timid voice.

Confused to what she meant, I placed my hand near my nose. I felt something wet touch my hand and when I pulled away, I saw some blood. My brain slowly caught up and I could feel the blood trickling out of my nose. I gave a slight chuckle as I looked back into the eyes of the pegasus before falling to the ground.

Several Minutes Later

My eyes slowly opened and I noticed that I was no longer outside. I was clearly in the cottage and my head was placed on something comfortable. I shifted my eyes upwardto be met with Lightning Dust and Trixie hovering over me. I concluded that I must be on their laps because as they shifted my head would move slightly. I could hear a slight sob coming to my sideand I looked over to see the pegasus ready to burst into tears. It hurt to see her trying to fight back the tears, clearly blaming herself for what had happenedand I couldn't have that.

"Hey there my name is Erik and sorry for the scare." I said, hoping to show that I was okay.

"My names Fluttershy and it's nice to see the stallion that Pinkie was talking about. Are doing okay?" Fluttershy asked as she scooted a little closer.

"I'm doing better than before. Your friend Rainbow Dash failed to mention how beautiful you look." I said and this got the pegasus to blush.

"I knew that I shouldn't have worn something so small. Are you hurt anywhere else?" She asked as she wiped my face with a wet cloth.

"Maybe my pride a little since I fainted and caused you to worry about me." I said with a slight chuckle.

"I'm sorry." Fluttershy said as she formed a slight frown.

"You have nothing to be sorry about. You're just absolutely stunning and I couldn't control myself. You should probably let yourself wear something more comfortable for the weather because that doesn't look too comfortable." I said as I pointed to her sweater.

"If I do that, then I will get a lot of stares and I don't want that." Fluttershy said.

"They're only staring because of your beauty. I bet most mares would love to look like you because your body is nice enough to be a model." I complemented her.

Fluttershy wasn't used to receiving complements about her body. Her wings twitched slightly as they tried to get fully erect. Her face burned with a slight blush as I continued to complement her. Once I felt ready, I got up from my comfortable position on the two mares lapsand stood up. I offered my hand down to Fluttershy, who took a few seconds before grasping my hand and I pulled her to her feet. Once she was standing I felt something beat against my leg. I looked down to see a snow white rabbit, kicking me with his hind legs. Fluttershy noticed this and became stern with the rabbit.

"Angel, stop that this instant. You know better than to pick on guests at this house." Fluttershy stated and caused the rabbit to step back.

"Is he your pet?" I asked as the rabbit and I looked at each other.

"Yes. His name is Angel and I had him since he was a baby. he can be a little overprotective at times, but he means no harm." Fluttershy said as she smiled at him.

"What about the rest of the animals?" I asked as I looked at the various bird houses and mouse holes.

"I take care of the animals that stop by from the forest. It may have been some big, scary creatures there, but there are a few that aren't so bad." Fluttershy said as she checked the many food dishes."

I looked over at a nearby clock wall and saw that I have been at her cottage for a couple of hours. not wanting to intrude on any of her plans, I decided to head out.

"It has been lovely to meet you Fluttershy. I do hope that we can get together again and talk." I said as I shook her hand.

She smiled warmly as she led me to her door. She mentioned that she would talk with Rarity about having me come with them on one of their weekly spa trips. I told her that I would be more than happy to go with them. She gave me a small wave before closing the door and leaving me standing. I decided to head to the park again so I can stare at the lake and enjoy some more scenery. The two mares followed me without question as I walked to the park.

Fluttershy's cottage was closer to the park so the walk wasn't too long. I found the same bench that I saw the last and took a seat. Trixie and Lightning Dust were on the ground on their knees like they though they should. I didn't say anything as I gently stroked their manes and they purred happily. It was kind of weird to me that such a simple gesture could make them so happy, but whatever  made them happy I was more then happy to give, as long as they were deserving of it.

I watched as the trees blew in the breeze that I didn't notice a group of four mares walking towards me. they had my attention when their giggling could be heard and their whispers mentioned me a few times. One mare from the group walked towards me and I took notice of what she and her friends looked like.

The approaching mare was a pegasus with a pale persian blue coat and light rose colored eyes. Her mane and tail were wild and messy, their color was a pale cerulean with white highlights. She seemed oddly familiar to Flitter that I met a couple of days ago. There was another pegasus with a pale persian blue coat and grayish cerise eyes. Her mane and tail were light brilliant amber and was mixed with very light yellow.

Another mare was a unicorn and she had a pale, light grayish magenta coat with moderate purple eyes. Her mane and tail were a moderate violet with light purple highlights. The final mare was a unicorn and her coat was a light goldish gray with her eyes being  moderate arctice blue. Her mane and tail were a pale cerise. My Two mares gave a low growl, but I didn't get angry with them. I didn't entirely blame them since it was weird to be approached by so many mares at once.

"Hello there, my name is Cloudchaser and these are my friends Cloud Kicker, Amethyst Star and Twinkleshine." Cloudchaser said as she pointed to her friends.

Cloudchaser was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a skirt. Cloud Kicker was wearing and a pair of athletic shorts. Amethyst Star was wearing a blouse and a skirt. Twinkleshine was wearing a button up shirt and a pair of slacks.

"Hey there. My name is Erik and I have to know, do you know a mare by the name of Flitter?" I asked.

"She's my sister. She has told me a lot about you after she met you a couple of days ago." Cloudchaser said as she beckoned her friends over.

I sat back down on the bench, seeing that these mares weren't going to cause me any true harm. Trixie and Lightning Dust stayed on the ground as the other mares joined me on the bench. It was a little cramped, but we were able to fit. Cloudchaser was sitting on my lap, Cloud Kicker was lounging behind me, Amethyst was to my right, and Twinkleshine was to my left. I could feel the tails slightly wrap around me as they made sure they were comfortable enough. Cloudchaser had her tail wrapped around my chest. Cloud Kicker had her tail wrapped around my chest. Twinkleshine and Amethyst Star had their tails wrapped around my arms.

"So what's with the two mares?" Amethyst Star asked.

"We are master's submissives." Lightning Dust answered.

The four mares just nodded as they scooted closer to me. I gave a slight gulp since this was the second time that mares were so forward with me. I could feel their hands travel over my body as they helped massage my muscles. Cloudchaser had her hands all over my chest, somehow being careful of my covered scars. Amethyst Star and Twinkleshine took care of my shoulders that helped to loosen up my neck. Cloud Kicker was really firm with my back, Helping re-align my spine and truly helping me relax. My two mares looked at me worriedly, but I smiled, assuring them that it was okay. I was right when I thought that they meant no harm. They just kept their hands above my waist as they carefully calmed my aching muscles. Amethyst Star seemed a little more into it as she looked at me with lustful eyes.

"We've heard a lot about you." Twinkleshine said.

"What have you heard?" I asked, curious to know what has been said about me.

"Just that you saved Trixie from the Ursa Minor and helped Lightning Dust with a couple of bad stallions. Any reason why?" Twinkleshine asked.

"I just couldn't leave them at the hands of those awful things. I might be slightly weird, but everyone deserves a second chance if they want it." I answered.

This got a smile out of Trixie and Lightning Dust . Cloudchaser went in to pat them on the head and they snapped at her. They gave a low growl at the mare and moved closer to my legs. I stretched out my hand and pinched each one of their ears. They gave a low whimper at the pain, but they shook their heads as my message was made clear. They straightened themselves on the ground as they looked back at the lake. I soon fell asleep as the mares continued to rub down my body.

I awoke some time later and saw that the four mares were missing. The other two mares were still at my feet and looked back as I groaned. They smiled as I got to my feet and started walking. I gestured for them to follow and they happily did. I saw the sun was now getting ready to set and I figured I should head for the library. I was headed for Twilight's place when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was a quick glimpse, but it was familiar. I saw an orange tail walk around a building and I followed it.

I rounded the corner and I saw who I was looking for since I first arrived. She was standing with another pegasus that I remember she knew very well. The mare's coat was light brilliant gold and her eyes were brilliant orange. Her mane and tail were like a fire and  their color was light brilliant orange with light brilliant amber stripes. The other pegasus had a light arctic blue coat with brilliant fuchsia eyes. her mane and tail were a light gray, but it looked really nice on her. I was standing there for a few seconds before the other pegasus noticed me.

"Can I help you?" The pegasus asked.

The other mare turned around to see who her friend was addressing and I saw her eyes go wide. It seemed that she knew who I was, but couldn't find a way to her opinion.

"Sorry. It's just that I remember seeing your friend slightly, but I never introduced myself. The name is Erik." I said as I extended my hand.

"The name's Fleetfoot." the pegasus said and waited a few seconds before shaking my hand.

"The name's Spitfire and I'm captain of the wonderbolts." The other pegasus said.

Fleetfoot and Spitfire were wearing the same attire. Both were wearing tank tops that showed off their toned stomachs. Both were wearing athletic shorts that hugged tightly to their well-muscled legs. The only difference in their clothing was that it matched their fur color.

"It's nice to finally meet you Spitfire. I wanted to say hello to you before, but you ran off before I could." I said as I gave her a smile.

"Well she has also been looking for you after you left the castle. Been driving me insane with trying to find you that I started to think that she was losing it. I can see now that you were worth the time to find." Fleetfoot said as she looked me up and down.

"What's with those two?" Spitfire asked as she saw the presence of the other two mares.

"This is Trixie and Lightning Dust. to kind of make a long story short, they want to better themselves and in order to do that, they became my submissives." I answered.

That's good to hear. I remember  Lightning's attitude from the academy and I'm glad that she wants to better herself. She had much potential that I was disappointed to see her waste it." Spitfire said.

"Yeah, Dash said the same thing when I met her. Your friend mentioned that you were looking for me. Any reason why?" I asked.

"I did want to say hi to you the moment that you arrived, but I got nervous and ran. I felt kind of stupid for doing that and wanted to try again and make a better introduction. The next thing that I knew, you already left the castle with the princess and were headed towards Ponyville. I didn't want to live with the regret of letting my nerves get the better of me and left to find you. I'm so happy that I have found you that I can do this."

I wasn't sure what she meant until she quickly wrapped her arms around me. Her hug was tight, Like if she were to let go she would lose me forever. I did the best thing that I could and returned the hug. She sighed happily as I returned her nice gesture. I got an unexpected surprise when Fleetfoot came over and joined the hug as well. I didn't argue as I hugged her back as well.

"Thank you for being real. I don't think the captain could have handled that kind of heartbreak." Fleetfoot gently said.

"It's just very nice to meet you both." I said.

"Listen, I know that it's getting late, but can I ask you a few questions?" Spitfire asked.

"I don't see any harm." I answered with a smile.

"Is there anything between you and the princess?" Spitfire asked.

"I think she's beautiful, but we're just friends." I answered

"What do you think about me and my friend?" Spitfire continued.

"Even though we just met, I think that the two of you are pretty cool. I would like to spend more time with you both if you have the chance." I answered.

"We are on vacation for a bit, so I think that I can find a place to stay and we can get together and talk some more." Spitfire replied.

"That would be great." I answered.

The two mares waved goodbye as I left with my two mares. Fleetfoot walked up to her captain and spoke in a low voice so no one could hear them.

"So you happy to have met him?" Fleetfoot asked as she gave a sly smirk.

"I will be when I get with him and I know the same can be said about you. You're lucky that he didn't smell your arousal." Spitfire said.

"So says the mare that came twice while he touched her." Fleetfoot said.

There was a blush on Spitfire's cheeks as she walked away from her friend to find a place to stay. Fleetfoot was able to control her laughter and ran after her friend. I was able to make it back to the library and nobody was there. I shrugged as I headed upstairs to get some sleep. Trixie and Lightning Dust grabbed some paper and knew that they were going to write to Luna. I told them that when they were done, they could join me in bed.

TrixieandLightning Dust'spov

Dear Princess Luna

I must say that having Lightning Dust here with me as master's submissive has been a great experience. We met some more mares that got a little too close to master, but we were able to control ourselves slightly. We got mad at one of them and growled at her. Master then grabbed us by the ear and pinched them as our punishment. It did hurt, but there was also a slight excitement to it because I knew that he was only trying to show us our errors. I do want to know one thing that master brought up. Is there anything between you and master?

Sincerely

The Great and Submissive Trixie and Submissive Lightning Dust

Dream Realm

I was in a comfortable park setting and saw the nearby table. I walked over to it and sat down in one of the chairs. I filled the cups with tea and right on time, Luna showed up. She smiled happily at me as she took her own seat. I passed her the cup and we sat in silence drinking our tea. I saw that she kept looking over in my direction with a slight blush. I finished my tea and asked her what was wrong.

"Is everything okay there Luna? You seem kind of anxious." I said.

"I've taken more of your advice to heart and I was wondering what would happen if all else fails?" She asked as she continued to idly sip her tea.

"At that point you only have two options. The first is you give up on trying to get the attention of the one that you love or you place all your cards on the table and see what happens." I answered.

Luna looked at me as she went deep in thought. I could see her mental gears working as she thought about what she wanted to do. There were a few seconds of silence before she moved. She got out of her chair and walked over to me. There was a slight sway in her hips before she finally reached me. My heart was currently pounding in my chest and I had no idea what to do. The next thing that happened would stick with me for a very long time. The princess leaned in close and kissed me on the lips. She held herself there for a few seconds before breaking off  and giving a slight smile.

I was about to ask her what that was about, but she left before I could. I was alone in the park with everything that happened. Not really sure what to do at this point, I filled my cup up with more tea and drank it down. I thought that it was slightly complicated with the few things that happened, but now with this I have no idea what to do.
