The Mission
“What!? The old palace? Why are you sending us there, mother?” Silver Soul, a light silver zebra unicorn hybrid with a light blue and black striped mane, questioned the Celestial goddess. Him and his two adoptive brothers stood in the throne room is front of their shared mother.
“Strange magical power has been emanating from the ruins for quite some time.” replied the princess cooly. Though she was talking to her sons, she didn’t tone down her personality when giving orders. “I fear something is occurring there. Something that might threaten Equestria.”
The young stallion groaned, but stayed quiet, knowing that complaining would get him nowhere with his mother. The eldest brother from the three placed a hand on his shoulder.
“Don’t argue.” whispered Golden Eye, a white stallion with pure, bright, golden eyes. His short, blue mane made him look almost like his uncle. Lightweight golden armor covered his chest, shoulders, and abdomen. “Neither me nor Platinum got anywhere with her.”
“Don’t you think I know that!?” hissed back Silver, shrugging off Golden’s hand.
“Golden’s right.” said Platinum Heart consolingly, brushing his silver hair from his eyes. He was a handsomely built, black coated unicorn. “We grew up with that knowledge, and have to follow her orders.”
Silver rolled his eyes, before turning his attention back to the princess. “So what’s it you need us to do?”
“Go to the ruins and figure out what is causing these magical events. Return once you have determined the cause or if possible, destroy it.” answered Celestia.
“Nice. Drag me out of bed for this.” Silver Soul groaned, before walking off to get some things from his chambers.
Golden Eye and Platinum Heart bowed considerately before excusing themselves from the room. They caught up to Silver on the way out.
“Platinum, I swear if you lecture me about respect, I will not be held responsible for what I do.” Silver growled as his two brothers caught up to him.
“I wasn’t going to.” said Heart as he fell into step alongside his younger brother. “In fact, I kind of agree with you. Our mother does need to do something for herself and not just shunt a job onto anypony else.”
Silver nearly tripped on his own hoof as he heard that. “W-what? Since when do you agree with me?”
“Ever since my younger brother actually got smart.” laughed Heart, punching Silver lightly on the shoulder.
“Silver, Platinum, our mother’s duties as princess keep her occupied enough as it is, she is counting on us to see to it that Equestria is kept from any hidden threats, and what kind of sons would we be if we didn’t do our part, hm?” Golden implied, turning around and stopping in front of his two younger brothers.
“You don’t think we know that, Gold? I love mother. She’s the only one who never treated me as a freak! But you know, sometimes I want some time to myself!” Silver growled as he shoved past Golden and continued down the corridor.
Platinum sighed and looked at Golden sadly. “You had to open that mouth of yours. At least agree with him from time to time. He does have valid points now, even though his is a little rude when he states them.”
“I know, it’s just that… I feel like he’s being a little… you know what, let’s just forget I said anything.” Golden stated and turned to continue walking to his room to prepare for the task ahead.
“Golden!” called Heart after his brother.
Golden stopped but didn’t turn around “What?”
Platinum Heart stopped for a second, thinking. “When I said I agreed with him, I meant it. But he’s had a rough life and I’m trying to make it better. Don’t think I'm turning my back on both you and mother by just listening to what he has to say.” Heart walked past his brother, stopping right in front of him. “We leave in an hour. Get your priorities straight before then. We don’t want a situation to occur.”
Heart continued down the hallway, towards his own room, leaving Golden behind.
Golden stood there for a moment, Thinking to himself. ‘What has gotten into me? First I make the assumption that my two younger brothers are turning against mother and myself only to make myself look like a fool, thus making me the childish one, and now here I am questioning why I am even here. Why did I even open my mouth without thinking? Mother, please forgive me for my foolishness.’ With these thoughts in his head, he continued toward his room.
Silver Soul, having packed his essentials for the journey, stood out in front of the castle doors, waiting for his brothers. He enjoyed being outside. It was a lot more freedom than he had when he was inside of the castle. Silver smiled as he let the gentle wind rustle through his frizzy mane. “Why does everything mess with me? I can hardly take it anymore.” Soul groaned to himself.
Platinum Heart had already finished packing. However, he sat at the head on his bed, thinking. It was his job to regulate disputes amongst his brothers. But this job had grown tiresome, and with each fight, Heart feared that Silver would one day leave and never return. A tear leaked out of his eye as he looked down at his side where a large heart cutie mark sat. “I love my brothers.” he said to himself in the quietness of the room. “I can’t let them fight like this.” He picked up the bag he was using for the trip and slung it over his shoulder. “Mother… give me strength.” he spoke as he opened his door and left.
Golden Eye was still packing his gear when he thought back to what he had said to his brothers, this only sought to bother him even more. “There’s only one way to make it right, I have to apologize, not only to Silver, but also Platinum for making the assumptions I had made earlier, and for being so blind to what is happening around me. All I do is take my orders and get them done, no questions asked. It’s my job to defend my mother, my brothers and everypony else, it’s just so hard when I act out against my brothers based on what they say, I feel like if I can’t stop fighting with them, then I can’t defend them. Why… Why do I do this to myself?” Golden asked himself as he finished packing, picked up his gear, and headed out to meet his brothers at the castle gates.
Silver groaned again as he heard the hoof steps of his brothers. He loved them just as much as he did his mother, but like her, they get on his nerves by not understanding the things that go through his head every day of his life. He turned to look at his brothers. “You guys took long enough. You ready?”
“I will be once I get something out of the way. Silver, Platinum, I need to talk to you both.” Golden replied, his tone seemingly sullen with regret.
“Spill it, bro. I’m all ears.” Silver replied with a sarcastic smile.
Heart crossed his arms in a non-aggressive manner. He started tapping his left index finger on his right bicep, but said nothing.
“The way I acted in the castle earlier. I was wrong to do so. I acted on mere words and therefore I made myself look like a fool. Silver, I don’t want to fight anymore. It’s just that… it’s hard with the way I feel when you question mothers orders and Platinum, I love you like a brother should, it’s just that the problem is I wish I could understand why I have such a hard time agreeing with others when all my life I have done nothing more than simply followed orders. So I just wanted to say I’m sorry, for my foolishness and my ignorance when I should have kept my mouth shut.” Golden said placing a hand on their shoulders.
“It’s hard to listen to orders when you were born without them, Gold. Celestia found me on the streets of Manehatten when I ten. I lived like that for two years…. In a filthy alley… Nopony even gave me a second look until the day I got fed up with it and jumped in front of a cart. I didn’t know the one I jumped in front of was Celestia’s. The rest you two know. I woke up in the infirmary, covered in bandages with both you and Platinum staring at me. Mother was standing behind you with that warm smile that I’ve grown to love. I loved you all from then on… But… I’ve never been the same since then…” Silver said, recalling the memories that he had kept from them.
I sat in the pile of garbage I called a home as I watched the ponies walk by me, not even bothering to look down at me. The baker down the road had changed his locks after me breaking in... Again. I was stuck without a meal and starving. I wished somepony, anypony would give me something to get rid of this stupid pain in my stomach. The grumbling from it was becoming unbearable.
Who am I kidding? I’m nopony even bothers to look at me, much less would they give me something to keep me from dropping dead. I cursed my mother every day of my life for leaving me here, alone and starving… But that was two years ago.
I guessed that part of the reason I never had a real life… Or could never get somepony to look at me for more than enough time to say ‘Ew! Get away from me!’ was because of what I am… A pony zebra hybrid… A unicorn at that.
Curse them all! I hate them all!
I couldn’t take it anymore…
I was so hungry…
I was in so much pain…
I leaped up with tears in my eyes and sprinted into the road just in time to feel my entire body to ignite with pain, before fading into darkness. The cart that had hit me hadn’t stopped. As I suspected. Hopefully I was dead… If I wasn’t I would be soon.
As these memories flooded back, Silver’s eyes overflowed with tears, which he just wiped away and readjusted his bag. “A-are we just gonna stand here and bring up the worthless past or are we going to get this done?”
“I mean, I’ve done enough damage as it is. Maybe if I was in your place, I would understand. I’m just hoping that you’ll forgive me for my actions earlier, but yes we need to get moving.” Golden stated.
Heart stood, looking at his two brothers. He walked up to both of them and placed an arm over both of them as tears came to his eyes. “Hey…” he said, consolingly. “We’re brothers. We’ll always fight, we’ll always be together. But whatever happens, you two are my family. And my greatest fear is that-” Heart choked up slightly. “is that one day, I’ll never be able to bridge the gap between you two. And we’ll never be together again.”
“Where would I go if I left, Platinum? This is the only family I have. I would have died if it wasn’t for mother. Sure you guys drive me insane, but I would never leave just like that. I have nowhere to go.”
“What would I do without you, Platinum? You know that you and Silver are the only ones that really keep me sane when we go out to deal with tasks like this. Without you I would be in a mental ward because I lost my mind due to not having somepony to talk to.” Golden said as he placed an arm over Platinum and Silver, pulling them into a hug.
Silver was soon struggling his way out of the hug. “Okokokok! Getting too huggy over here.”
“Heh, sorry. I guess we’d better get a move on then.” Golden stated as he released Platinum and Silver.
Platinum Heart smiled as the words of his brothers washed over him. “Thanks guys.” He said, wiping his own eyes.
“Common, Let’s just get this over with so I go back to bed.” The zebra said as he broke into a run, before leaping over the balcony, only to float back up in a bubble of bright silver magic.
Golden opened his wings and flapped them powerfully, lifting up off the ground. Golden Eye flew up and hovered next to Silver, waiting for Platinum.
His horn glowing, Platinum leaped over the balcony, like Silver, and floated up in his own bubble. Nodding to both Silver and Golden, the three of them started making their way towards the old ruins of Celestia and Luna’s castle, the very one Nightmare Moon had half destroyed over a millenia ago.
“What do you think we’ll find when we get there?” Silver asked as they flew over Ponyville.
“I don’t know. We’ll have to stay alert and no matter what happens, you know how to defend yourselves if we get separated.” Golden stated.
“Yeah.” agreed Heart. “This castle could be dangerous.”
“Hey, I was thinking, maybe on the way back we could make a visit to see Twilight and her friends, you know just say hello, chat for a bit, you know just something to think about.” Golden suggested.
“Yeah, I heard aunt Twilight is in Ponyville.” Silver replied with a huge smile.
“Yeah. I haven’t seen her in while. Be nice to catch up.” said Heart with a smile.
“Well, at least there are some things we agree on.” Golden commented. “looks like we’re here, let’s land outside the castle and set up camp, it’s already getting dark out here.”
“Look! Something else we agree on!” Silver playfully stated, before bursting into laughter. When he didn’t have his mother or his brother, mister responsibility breathing down his neck, he could be a real laughing box. Not many things unable to set him off during the right conditions.
Platinum laughed along with him as did Gold as the trio descended to the ground.
“Just to go ahead and get this out of the way, I’ll take first watch tonight.” Gold said as he began unpacking his tent “So who want’s second? Cause I’ll need my sleep too.”
“Fine by me. Was gonna sleep anyway.” Silver replied as he too unpacked his tent along with a pack of marshmallows. “I’ll go last.”
“Guess I’m second then.” said Heart, stretching slightly on the ground.
Silver looked curiously down at his brother. “You didn’t bring a tent?”
“I thought about it… but… I like looking up the stars at night.”
“Um… Bro… This is the Everfree forest.”
“It’s a good thing I packed an extra.” Golden said as he pulled out a second tent.
“You always have extra everything.” Silver stated as began to pitch up his own.
“What can I say, I always make sure we have enough. Anyways, I’m gonna go gather the supplies for a campfire, go ahead and get ready for dinner.” Golden said before leaving to collect firewood.
“Alright.” The zebra waved as his brother walked off, still working on getting his tent set up. When he had finally gotten the damn thing to stand on its own, he began pulling out the cooking utensils and made a fire pit in the middle of their group of tents. It was then that he felt a cold chill run down his spine and heard what seemed to be an inaudible whisper in his ear. He shivered and tried to shake off the feeling, pulling his coat closer around him.
Heart noticed his brother’s behaviour. “Cold?” He asked, throwing his own tent together in a few seconds.
“Y-yeah… You know I’m not built for cold.”
“Yeah, I remember.”
Soon after Heart had finished speaking, Golden came out with a pile of branches and twigs and said. “Let’s get some of this broken up so we can get the fire going, then we can get cooking and warm up a bit.”
Silver stood up and took a few branches and snapped them one at a time, breaking them into perfect lengths to fit the pit he had made. He then threw them in and lit it with a flash of magic.
Golden threw in the branches he had broken up and said “That will keep for a few hours, so let’s get cooking so we can eat.”
“What do we have?” asked Heart interestly.
“You know I always pack our favorites.” Gold said, giving his brother a playful jab in the arm.
“Then what are you waiting for?” laughed Silver. “Let’s get cooking.”
“We all know that Platinum is the better cook here.” Gold said, looking at Platinum with a smile.
Platinum blushed. “Yeah, I guess that’s true. You would burn a sandwich, Gold.”
“Heh, you’re right, I would burn a sandwich.” Gold jokingly replied before bursting into laughter.
Silver joined in and so did Platinium
“Look at us.” said Heart. “Three brothers, royal brothers I might add, doing something so… pedestrian as camping. It’s kind of a weird feeling.”
“Oh, I used to go camping all the time with Grandpa when I was younger, about your age Silver. My goodness, Mother would be so annoyed when we got back.” Gold chuckled.
“Mother got annoyed at you?!” exclaimed Silver. “You’re Mr. Responsibility, the perfect son who never steps out of line. Who are you and what have you done to my brother?”
“That was when I was young, Silver. I was a kid who liked the outdoors just as much as you do, but when I turned sixteen was when I got my first responsibilities and had to stop going out as much.” Gold replied. “Me n’ Grandpa would always go fishing and swimming while we were out camping.”
“I never went camping with you.” spoke up Platinium. “You offered, but I prefered to stay at the castle. Now I feel like I missed out on so much.”
“What can I say, I was adventurous back then.” Gold retorted playfully.
*Snap*
Gold’s ears perked up, “Hey, ya’ll hear that?”
Heart jumped to his feet while Silver looked around from the forest floor. Heart’s horn glowed as he looked around, trying see anything that looked out of place.
“I’ll go check it out.” Gold replied, ready for any predators that might be lurking about as he walked around and searched the general area surrounding the camp. Heart kept one eye on his brother at all times during his search.
During the search, Gold saw some movement in a bush and decided to get a closer look, when all of a sudden, a small brown rabbit jumped out at Gold and ran off, causing Gold to yelp in surprise and fall on his rear.
Silver tried to hide his laughter, but failed terribly, ending up falling on his back in a fit of laughter. He couldn’t even speak with how hard he was laughing. Heart was a little more composed, but he couldn’t help but snicker as Gold picked himself up off the ground, whispering curses under his breath.
“He just caught me off guard is all, damn rabbit.” Gold groaned. “What are you two laughing at?”
Heart couldn’t take it. He fell on the ground next to Silver, laughing his head off. Gold flashed them a glare as they finally started to calm down.
“My eldest brother is scared of a little snow shoe rabbit! Freggin hilarious!” Silver cried out as tears of laughter poured from his eyes.
“Shut up.” Gold retorted “Don’t make me tell mom about you sneaking into the royal wine cellar!”
Silver instantly froze, his expression one of absolute shock. “How the hell did you know about that!?”
“Let’s just say I caught you with some viewing crystals.” Gold answered with a smug grin.
“You spy on me? Ugh! That’s creepy.”
“Nah, I’m just jokin’, how the hell I do know is you aren’t in bed when I go to bed and I have known this for a while now.” Gold replied.
“How do you know? I could be stargazing.”
“While getting drunk off your ass.” Gold retorted before breaking into a small fit of laughter.
The zebra blushed with embarrassment. “You suck, Gold.”
Gold only laughed harder as he fell backwards.
“Instant karma, Silver.” sighed Heart.
“Served bitter and cold.” Silver added with a pout.
“But hey, I made sure to grab a bottle or two from my personal stash to share.” Gold said after he calmed down.
Silver gave a slow smile at that. “And suddenly you don’t suck anymore.”
“No real magic to that trick.” said Heart, laughing slightly.
“I know I can be an asshole at times.” Gold joked
“But so can I.” Silver chuckled.
“But hey, we’re brothers, what can we do about it?” Gold said laughingly.
“Ain’t that the damn truth!”
Heart smiled as he watched his elder and younger brother make up. Perhaps his fear was just another thing for them all to overcome. He cleared his throat. “I don’t know about you two, but we should get some food and have a drink or two. We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow.”
“Right, make sure to get mine just right, Heart.” Golden inquired as he pulled out a bottle of vodka, the strongest vodka from his personal stash.
“You know I’m always good with however you make mine. And I brought some marshmallows to roast when we’re done eating.” Silver said as he pulled out the pack of camp fire marshmallows.
Heart sat himself in front of the fire, grabbing a bag of potatoes on the way over as well as some cheese and bread as he got to work. “This’ll take a while… so go nuts.” he called back to his brothers.
“You brought the shot glasses, right Gold?”
“Even better, I brought ‘the’ shot glasses.” Gold replied emphasizing ‘the’ to point out that he brought his special shot glasses which were taller than normal shot glasses by two inches.
“Talk about me being a drunk, Gold. Jeez.”
“Hey, I had these saved for the occasion when all three of us could get out of the castle for a night and spend more time together. I hardly see you two when we’re at the castle cause I’m having to inspect the guards quarters in the stead of the captain since he’s in the Crystal empire and I’m having to fill out paperwork each day that I’m not outside the castle.
“You do know that uncle Armor is permanently residing at the Crystal empire. He’s got his own guard to tend to there. You’re the captain, Gold,” Silver replied as the smell of cooking food drifted into his nostrils, making his mouth water.
“Now do you see why I brought my special shot glasses?” Gold asked inquisitively.
“Yeah… I can see… All too clearly.”
“I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” came Heart’s voice as he tended to the cooking and the flame.
“Oh, quit ya bellyachin’, Heart. I was just explaining why I brought my special shot glasses.” Gold retorted jokingly.
Silver turned to peer at Heart. “If you don’t want a drink, say so. We’ll be happy to take your shots.”
“Oh, hell no.” replied Heart. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world. And on that note, here’s ya food.” His horn glowed and a few potatoes and a few grilled cheese sandwiches floated over to each of them.
Gold took his sandwich and took a bite, “Mmmm, always did a good job with grilled cheese sandwiches.” he complimented.
Silver snatched his own out of the air by his teeth and taking the bite out of it. “Sometimes it’s great to eat something simple, other than the complex food back at home.” He then went to eating his food.
Heart ate his own food slowly, however the warmth of the food did little for this chilling feeling running down his spine. He quickly glanced over his shoulder, but he saw no one. He tried to get back to get eating, but he was distracted by this nagging feeling that they were being watched. The Everfree forest is supposed to play with your mind, but Heart’s mind felt clear and alive, well… until that vodka was opened at least.
“Hey, you okay over there?” Gold asked, looking at Heart with concern.
“Yeah… just some weird feelings…” replied Platinum uncertainly.
“Well then c’mon over and have a few drinks with us.” Gold said while pouring the shots.
Heart really wanted his mind to remain clear. But at the same time, he couldn’t pass up this opportunity to finally have some fun with his brothers. “Oh… maybe a few…” Heart said in an offhanded manner, getting up and walking over to them.
“Good boy.” Silver said as he handed Heart a glass, taking his own and holding it up for a cheers. “To getting shit done!”
“Got that right.” Gold replied.
“Hear, hear!” responded Platinum.
They all drank deeply, draining Golden’s special shot glasses in one. Heart looked at his glass blearily.
“This will not end well…” he repeated. “Now, fill me up.”
“Hey hey, who am I to say no?” Golden replied as he filled Platinums glass once more.
As Gold refilled the glasses, Silver pulled out his marshmallows and handed the others a stick to put one on. “Just how a camping trip should be, am I right?” He said, before draining another shot and impaling a marshmallow on his stick afterward, holding above the fire.
“If you say so. You’re the only one with any experiences to judge this by.” replied Heart, spearing his own marshmallow and holding it near the fire.
Silver turned to glare at his brother. “That was a little fucked up, Heart. My mother never took me on a camping trip. I read about them in books.” He growled as he took another shot, by now feeling pretty tipsy.
“This is how it was for me n’ Grandpa but without the vodka and all.” Gold stated. “Now you two just simmer down and enjoy the moment we have here tonight. Alright?”
Heart drained his glass. “Sorry, Silver. I never was the best drinker.”
“It’s alright. Guess you guys can’t understand what I went through unless you went through it yourselves.” The zebra replied with a sigh. He pulled his cooked marshmallow out of the fire, blowing it off, before popping it into his mouth.
“I may not understand what you’ve been through.” said Heart taking a slightly burnt marshmallow out of the fire. “And I know you hate talking about it. But, we’re always here for you.” Heart popped the marshmallow off the stick and placed it in his mouth.
“If there’s anything you need to talk about you know that there are two of us you can talk to, that goes for myself included.” Gold added pulling a well roasted marshmallow out of the fire.
Heart stared at Gold’s well roasted marshmallow. “Incredible. You can’t cook for shit, but give you a bag of marshmallows and suddenly you’re the top chef here.”
Silver stifled a laugh.
“I guess I just have a way with marshmallows.” Gold chuckled.
Heart nodded simply, passing his glass back to Gold, silently asking for more.
“Don’t get too drunk on me, Heart. I don’t wanna have to carry you to your tent.” Gold replied as he shakily filled Platinum’s glass.
“Look who’s talking.” replied Heart, draining half of the glass instantly.
“Yeah, worry about… Umm… Y-yourself.” Silver stuttered, before draining his shot, accidentally tilting his head too far back and ended up falling over. “Ouch…”
“Silver, you really *hic* crack me up sometimes, you know that?” Gold asked as he drained his glass.
Heart started giggling. “You- You fell over.” he stated simply, draining the rest of his glass.
“That was messed up. I *hic* wasn’t even dizzy at all and then… Bam.” The obviously drunk zebra said from his place on the ground.
Gold only fell backwards, busting out in laughter, knowing that Silver was already drunk.
Heart tried to drink from his glass, but there was nothing else in it. “Oi, barkeep.” He called over to the laughing pegasus on the ground. “What’s wrong with this picture?”
Gold calmed down and grabbed the bottle, and poured Heart another glass along with himself and Silver.
Silver pushed himself back upright. He took his freshly poured shot and drained it. “That wasn’t *hic* funny… A-at least not as funny as that bunny.” The zebra snickered.
“Shut *hic* up or I-I’ll *hic* tell mom.” Gold stumbled over his words before downing his shot, and this time tilting his own head to far and having the same accident as Silver “Ouch…. that *hic* fucking hurt.”
“Snitch! *Hic* The f-fuck’s up *hic* with these annoying ass *hic* Hiccups!?” Silver exclaimed, before dissolving into laughter.
Heart laughed for a second before trying to grab the bottle of vodka. “That’s… t-too much… for all of…” His hand tipped over the bottle, spilling the rest of the drink and he found himself lying on his side. “He he… that felt… weird.”
Silver stopped laughing. “Oh *hic* shit. Gold, Heart’s f-fucked.”
“No I’m not! *hic*” called Heart from the ground. “I-I’m all *hic* good!”
Gold sat up, “Yes, Heart. *hic* You are *hic* Fucked, you n-need to *hic* get to bed. WHAT THE FUCK *hic* HAPPENED TO THE DAMN *hic* VODKA?!” Gold yelled in a drunken rage, sounding like a pissed off drunken russian.
“That was me… *hic*... I think.” Came Heart’s voice.
“DAMMIT, HEART! That was for us!”
“SOMEPONY JUST PUT UP A *hic* FUCKING PROTECTIVE BARRIER OR *hic* SOMETHING! I’m going to fucking *hic* bed.” Gold ranted as he stumbled off to his tent.
Silver groaned loudly and picked himself up. “No more *hic* drinks for you ever, Heart.” He said as he picked up his brother and clumsily dragged the drunk stallion to his tent. He then cast a protective bubble around the camp, but didn’t go back to his tent. Instead he just sat back by the fire and roasted more marshmallows until the fire died out. Then he stumbled off to bed, instantly falling asleep as he climbed into his sleeping bag.

//-------------------------------------------------------//
The Castle
The next morning.
Gold was the first to wake. “Damn... my fucking head hurts like a bat out of hell.” he grumbled, still lying in bed
Heart’s eyes fluttered open and he managed to sit up, before the headache hit. “Wow… major headache.” He was still slightly dizzy, so he just flopped back down on the ground.
Silver groaned loudly as he woke, instantly finding his mind wrapped in a headache. He didn’t even bother opening his eyes. He’d fucked himself up enough times to know what happens when his mothers sun lights up his bedding area after doing something like last night. “No mother! My head hurts!” He moaned, covering his face with his pillow.
After lying there for a few minutes, Gold emerged from his sleeping bag and donned his usual armor before leaving his tent and sat down on the ground near the fire pit.
“Gold!” called Heart from his tent. “Need you for a sec.”
Gold mumbled something under his breath as he walked over to Heart’s tent and walked in, “What do you want?”
“I need you to exert a massive amount of force to the right side my face.” He replied.
“I’ll be happy to oblige.” Gold spoke in a gruff tone, curled his hand into a fist, and clocked Heart in the face, just as he had asked.
Heart’s head snapped around and his neck cracked as he realigned it. Now completely awake, Heart stood up and placed a hand on Gold’s shoulder. “When this is all over... you, Silver, I’ll buy ya drinks. As much as you want.” Heart rubbed his face where it had been hit. “You still got it, Gold. Proud of you.”
Having heard the loud strike of bone on bone, due to the fact that Heart’s tent was right next to his, Silver’s ears perked up. “Aw man. He went there.” he groaned as the zebra pulled himself out of his sleeping bag, not without pain shooting through his head, making him wince. He pushed his way out of his tent. “What the hell’s going on!?” he growled, but was greeted by a clock to his jaw, knocking him off his hooves. Damn was he awake now! Not. Silver had been knocked clean out as soon as his face hit the ground. ‘I’m gonna kill whoever sucker punched me like that!’
“I never said to hit him!” yelled Heart’s voice as Silver blacked out.
“Heart, hit me.” Gold said. “Give it all you got.”
“If you say so.” replied Heart, punching him in the jaw.
Gold staggered backward a few steps, “Damn, when did you get so strong, Heart?” Gold asked, now that he was wide awake, rubbing his jaw where the strike connected.
Heart didn’t answer. “Should we wake up Silver?”
“Yeah, we should.” Gold answered.
“He’ll be pissed, so prepare yourself.” warned Heart before his horn glowed and a white aura surrounded Silver.
“I know, I know.” Gold monotoned.
The zebra’s eyes snapped open as he bolted upright. Silver quickly brought a right hook around and caught Heart since he was the closest to him, knocking the unicorn on his ass. He then sent a pulse of magic at Gold, knocking him back into his tent. “Which one of you fuckers sucker punched me!?” He roared as he shakily stood.
Heart felt a little disorientated, but managed to clamber back to his hooves. “You hit hard, kid. Anyway, Gold got you before.”
“Damn… now I know not to piss of a unicorn.” Gold groaned painfully as he picked himself up.
“Hey Gold.” yelled Heart over his shoulder. “You might want to start running. Like… now.”
‘’What’s the worst that could happen? He wouldn’t try to kill his oldest brother, now would he?” Gold replied.
'10 seconds… and then I stop it', thought Heart.
“You should have listened.” Silver grabbed Gold in his magic and yanked his brother right out of the tent and face first into the zebra’s already moving fist, clothes-lining and dropping the larger stallion to the ground. “Not kill you. Knock you the fuck out.” He then grabbed Gold by his chest plate and yanked him up into a skull bash.
'4… 5…' thought Heart dully.
Silver picked Gold up in his magic and slammed him into the ceiling of the protective barrier, before letting him drop, intending on uppercutting him, but Gold’s fall was stopped by Platinum Heart’s magic.
“And that’s 10!” he announced, moving the unconscious form of Golden Eye away from the enraged stallion.
As soon as Gold woke, he found that he was being carried on Heart’s shoulder. He looked down at Silver and said “I’ll get ya back soon enough.”
Silver chuckled. “No you won’t. Besides, Get me back for what? That was for you sucker punching me.”
“For going overboard, that’s what.” Gold snickered
“We both know that you can’t be knocked out with one punch. I, on the other hand, am physically smaller than you, meaning your fist makes a bigger mark on me.”
“Well, Heart about damn near knocked me the fuck out one hit.” Gold said.
“He’s bigger than me.” Silver pointed out.
“I didn’t mean to turn and hit ya like that though.” Gold apologized “I guess I just didn’t see ya coming when I swung around.”
“I didn’t mean to stick you to the ceiling.” Silver shrugged.
“No no, I deserved that. It serves me right for stickin’ ya in the jaw.” Gold assured Silver.
Heart looked between the two. “You all good now?” he asked.
“Yeah. Oh and uh, you can put me down now.” Gold said.
The smaller stallion was pulling parts of a weapon out of his bag and assembling them as they walked. “Who’s Scarlet, Gold? You were moaning her name while you were out.” He asked as Heart hauled Gold off his shoulder.
Gold blushed. “Uh… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Su~re…” Silver said in a sarcastic tone as he kept walking. By now his scythe was fully assembled and placed in a holster on his back.
Gold had drawn a sword from it’s sheath, examining it closely, making sure the blade had not cracked from Silver’s outburst, before sliding it back in.
Heart, on the other hand carried no weapons, which made Silver curious. He had often seen Heart with a weapon and he knew how skilled he was.
“Hay, bro… Where’s your rapier?” Silver asked.
“Platinum, you know better than to come out here unarmed.” Gold lectured.
Heart turned around to face Gold. “Of course I know that. I might forget a simple tent, and I might spill a bottle of vodka on accident, but even I’m not that forgetful or clumsy. You taught me better than that.”
“You forgot it didn’t you?”
Heart rounded on Silver and thrust his fist forward at him. But instead of hitting him, most of Platinum’s arm disappeared. He appeared to grab hold of something and he pulled. Heart’s rapier slid out of the invisible hole in the air. Platinum twirled the weapon around a few times and held it at his side. “Happy?” he asked sarcastically.
“Better.” Gold replied. “Anyways, how the fuck did you do that? Some sort of magical pocket or something?”
Silver looked down at his chest where Heart’s hand seemed to of passed through. “What the fuck?” He asked nopony in particular.
Heart tightened his grip on the sword as his arm disappeared again. When he withdrew it, the rapier was gone. “When you study magic and the way it works for as long as I have, you’ll know how I did that.”
“I study magic… I just haven’t gotten to that chapter yet.”
Heart laughed. “Chapter? All the magic in Equestria cannot be documented in books. You have to experience it without the barriers of your own knowledge holding you back.”
“You wouldn’t mind teaching him, would you, Heart?” Gold asked.
“Oh nonononono. No magic lessons when we’re on the go. You remember what happened the last time, Gold? We all turned purple for a month and when we talked, we spoke backwards.”
“That’s when we got caught in a patch of Poison Joke.”
“No. When we got caught in the poison, I got really fat.“ Silver stated in a blunt tone
“!Suoiralih gnikcuf saw taht ,haey ha.” said Heart, laughing hysterically.
“Don’t even start, Heart. I don’t need you antagonising me.” Gold warned.
“Besides… I don’t think anypony wants me to bring up what happened to you when we hit the poison joke, Heart.” Silver hissed at him.
Heart stopped laughing immediately and stared daggers at Silver. “I can never live that down. You guys fucking promised never to bring that up again.”
“Could someone remind me what happened to me?” Gold asked.
Silver sighed loudly. “It made you into a four legged pony. You got really pissed.”
“Oh yeah, I still feel sore after I kicked Heart in the chest that day..” Gold said as he was reminded.
“You got what you deserved that day, Goldy Legs.” said Heart, using the nickname that he gave four legged Golden Eye.
“I told you not to call me that!” Gold growled.
“You two are going to kill me.” Silver groaned as he magically formed earplugs in his ears. “Ah, better.”
Heart rolled his eyes. “Come on. Let’s go before we’re forced to remember anything else… scarring.” Heart walked away, touching his tongue and shuddering. Boxers tasted awful.
“Yeah, let’s.” Gold seconded.
Silver quietly followed, having turned his earplugs into earbuds, blaring dubstep in his ears.
“I’m starting to understand why you guys didn’t really want to come out here, I am kinda feeling the same. Something doesn’t feel right.” Gold stated as he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword.
Silver had pulled one of his earbuds out, seeing that his brothers had stopped arguing. “This is the same place Nightmare Moon was born. Evil still lurks here. I can feel it. We should stay close.”
“The magical fluxes… even you should be able to feel them, Gold. The magic envelops anything, and Silver’s right, sticking together is the best option.” said Heart, withdrawing a simple staff from nowhere.
“No, it’s not the fluxes. I feel like something is watching us or casting some sort of spell on us.” Gold stated.
“You feel it too?” Silver gasped.
“I’ve been feeling the same. How could I let my guard down?” said Heart.
“Heart, cast your life detect spell.” Gold said to Heart.
“Right.” Heart’s horn glowed as he searched for signs of life. “Argh! No use! Too much magic in the air!” exclaimed Heart.
“Then let’s just hope it’s not some huge fucking cannibalistic cottontail.” Gold said, remembering the rabbit in the bush.
Silver couldn’t help but snicker at his brother’s new rabbit phobia.
“Shut up, Silver.” Gold growled, not expecting it to echo.
“Sorry.” He apologized past a few more snickers, before he finally regained his composure.
“Let’s be really careful now, guys.” said Heart, gripping his staff tightly and glancing down at it every few seconds. “We’re protected in more ways than we know.”
“Not in the Everfree.” Silver replied as he drew his scythe, spinning it a few times, before holding it at the ready.
“Nopony is really ever safe in the Everfree.” Gold said tightening his grip on the hilt of his sword.
“I’ve taken a few extra precautions… but yeah, no pony is ever, truly safe in the Everfree forest.” said Heart, flicking his eyes back down at his staff.
“Remember that slime outbreak a few years ago, the one that we almost got infected by?” Gold said, “That slime came from the Everfree forest.”
“And hell. The ursa major that decided to remodel Canterlot after storming Ponyville? The one that you two had throw me inside of so I could kill it.” Silver added with a shiver. “I don’t ever want to do that again.”
“I thought that was an ursa minor?” Gold questioned.
“No. That was the one that stormed Ponyville years ago after Snips and Snails fucked with it.”
“And Aunt Twilight used that water tower and filled it with milk and fed it so that she could send it back to it’s cave.” Gold stated.
“Now granted, I’m sure it was the same ursa, but years later.” Silver finished.
“I have to agree with you guys on this one, but we need to focus.” commanded Heart.
“Right, sorry. Just got a bit sidetracked.” Gold apologized quickly.
“Yeah. We really need to keep our guard up.”
“Let’s go then.” said Heart, leading the way.
“Keep your eyes and ears open. Call out anything you feel, hear, see, or smell that’s suspicious.”
“Yeah. Got it.”
“Same.”
The trio slowly advanced, their eyes darting everywhere, searching for anything. The silence of the area was unnerving them all. All three gripped their weapons, ready for anything to jump out at them. However, minutes passed and nothing happened.
Silver made to look out for anything that would harm them, when the faded, cracked, and grown over tower of their mother’s old castle came into view. The zebra pointed it out to his brothers. “There! The castle. I see it.”
“Aunt Twilight and her friends really did a good job on this place.” said an admired Heart.
“I’ve heard that the inside looks better… Much better, considering nopony’s here to care for the plant life that grows out here and that it can’t get to the inside.” Silver replied. “I’d be surprised if I even saw any dust.”
“Hm... this place looks in better condition that when Aunt Twilight told me about it.” Gold pointed out.
“Of course with the magic pulsing from this place… That won’t last long.” Silver said with a worried glance toward his brothers.
“Hopefully it won’t collapse on top of us.” reassured Platinum.
“I heard there was some spell holding these ruins together, and the evil here is connected to that spell, if we can find a way to dispel the spell on the place, we can shut down the fluctuations that we’ve been feeling.” said Gold.
“But that would destroy mother and aunt Luna’s second castle.” Silver protested. “There has to be another way.”
“There is another way, but I don’t know what it is.” Gold explained.
“If mother was doing this, she would have known what and how to do it. She would already be long done by now.”
"Most likely." said Heart. "But maybe something stopped her from proceeding."
“That could also be a factor. But we’re her sons… Except me that is… Why can we get through here?” Silver questioned.
Platinum Heart thought for a bit. "Remember how I said we have 'more protection than we know of'?"
“Yeah?”
"Well, now that I think about it, our mother has had a deeper reason for her actions. Always."
“You’ve got a point there.”
“Well, our family, including you Silver, has a special protection of sorts when we are together. This kind of magic goes back thousands of years, and it has mostly protected the royalty of Equestria when they reside together. That's why she sent us three, because she alone couldn't do anything." He sighed "You're smarter than I expected, Mother."
Gold chuckled a little as he remembered the magical protection that Mother had told him about. “That sounds about right.” He said with a sigh, feeling relieved knowing that he and his brothers were not completely unprotected “It’s better that we’re here with that protection along with everything we brought with us.”
“Still doesn’t make me feel any better about being here. It’s not going to protect us very well once we’re inside. Mother’s magic still resides inside and, if I’m correct about this, it will resonate with ours, canceling our protection out. Like it does back at home.” Silver pointed out. “We could be completely screwed once we get inside.”
“Well, I understand your point, the protection will be null and void while we are in there, I’m just saying that I feel better knowing that we have some sort of protection out here in the Everfree, outside the ruins of the old castle.” Gold added. “I will do my best not to let anything happen to you two and you know that, even with how much we fight. Oh, and thanks for teaching me not to piss off a zebracorn like yourself.” he chuckled.
“Don’t mention it. I’ll be sure not to let the secret out once we’re done here. I’m just glad that Heart stopped me, before I went too far.”
As the three approached the front gates of the next-to-abandoned castle the magic fluxes began to intensify, drowning out most other senses.
Silver grasped his head as he was buffeted by the magic. “Ugh… It’s messing with my head. I hope this is just a protection spell to keep any unwanted guests out.”
“Gah…” Gold yelled as he fell to his knees. “What the fuck is going on here?”
“He’s not a unicorn! Heart, quick! The mental defense spell!” Silver cried as he bent down to help his brother.
Heart quickly placed his hand on Gold's shoulder. His horn glowed and the air around them shimmered as the spell was cast.
“You okay, Gold?” asked Heart, pulling him back to his hooves.
“I will be, for now. Just got a major fucking headache from whatever fucked with my head.” Gold replied, groaning in pain.
Silver raised a brow. “So… Nothing new?”
“Let’s just get in there and get this done so we can get the hell out of here.” Gold replied. “I don’t want to stay here too much longer.”
“Neither do any of us.” said Heart darkly.
Silver Soul slowly approached the large, fortified gates of the old castle. They were faded, cracked, and rust covered. He cautiously reached out and pushed open the gate, finding that it put up some resistance, but as soon as it was pushed all the way open, the pulses of magic stopped. This surprised all three of the brothers. “W-what the hell?” The zebra whispered as he looked around inside the gates, finding nopony around.
“The pulses must have been a defensive ward to keep out intruders.” Gold suggested. “That’s why I got that massive headache, we had reached the last layer of the defensive ward that made it so any who were not a unicorn or of alicorn status would not be able to pass these types of wards without a mental defense ward placed on them.”
Silver nodded his head. “That’s what I thought it was… Which only scares me even more. Because it means… Somepony’s here.”
“That’s what I was afraid of, but who, is what concerns me more.” Gold replied.
“Whoever it is, we need to get this done quickly.” Heart cut in. “I don’t like this place.”
“Yeah, I agree with you there.” Silver replied as he cautiously made his way through the gates. It was then that he felt that cold chill ride up his back, making him shiver, but this time the chill seemed to have a mind of it’s own, exploring his body, taking special time on his sensitive spots. He whimpered loudly and tried to shake it off, succeeding, but feeling utterly violated.
Heart seemed to feel the same. He shuddered and looked around wildly and then looked back at Silver. “You feel that?”
“Y-yeah… And I don’t want to feel it again…”
“What the actual fuck was that?” Gold exclaimed “What ever it was, I hope I don’t feel it again.”
“Neither…” Heart’s eyes darted around again and Silver saw him shiver once more. “Ok, whoever the fuck this is, is going down! Obviously, this is the work of a sick, demented fuck!”
Gold shivered at the thought of a psychotic unicorn running about in the castle, “This place is giving me the fucking creeps already and thoughts of a psychotic unicorn being behind this isn’t helping.”
“I am a psychotic unicorn, remember? Whoever this is… Is fucking twisted as fuck.” Silver replied as the three brothers made their way through the courtyard.
“Guys, we need to focus. This unicorn is trying to get us angry, trying to make us confused.” said Heart, looking around for any sight of a unicorn apart from himself and Silver.
“What have we here? Dear Celestia’s children… And a freak of nature?”  A deep female voice call from seemingly nowhere.
Silver’s anger shot through the roof. “THE FUCK DID YOU JUST CALL ME!?”
Heart quickly tried to figure out the voice. Female, deep, powerful… must be unicorn or an alicorn. Wasn’t much of those… He couldn’t think straight, he had to focus.
“Awww… Did I hurt the little freak’s feelings? Such anger is so… Delicious… Yes. You three will do nicely…” Her voice continued. “Come and find me, cuties.”
Heart continued to run through names in his head. He came to two conclusions. Both highly unlikely, but possible. Oh shit… he thought. This REALLY won’t end well!
Silver yelled in rage and took off for the castle. “You sadistic bitch! I will end you!”
“Silver, wait!” yelled Heart, sprinting off after him. It took him a few seconds, but he managed to grab hold of Silver and stop him. “Don’t run off like that.” berated Heart. “You have no clue who’s in here, what you’re about to run into.”
Silver struggled in his brother’s grip. “It won’t matter who she is when she’s fucking dead! Let me go! She called me a freak! I’m going to end her!” There were tears streaming from his eyes from the very word freak, reminding him of how ponies used to treat him and, in some cases, still do.
Heart looked at his brother, the tears streaming down his face. He reached out a hand and brushed them away. “Hey… Remember all those years ago, when we hit something with our cart? We didn’t drive off, we stopped and we helped. Remember?”
Silver gazed into his eyes, the memories flooding back to him as well.
It was just a trip to Manehatten. Nothing really important, just for a quick change of scenery. Me, Gold and our mother were being pulled along the main street when suddenly, we hit something and our cart nearly fell over.
“The hell was that?” said Golden Eye loudly.
Mother reached over and slapped my brother on the back of his head.
The cart stopped and I looked around to see a figure lying crumpled in a heap on the road. “Holy crap, we hit somepony!”
I raced out of the cart and over to the figure, mother and Golden close behind me. I was a few meters from it when I realised what it was. A zebracorn. Judging by the dirt and smell of him, probably an orphan. I knelt down next to the zebra and tried to feel for a pulse. Thankfully, I found one, but it was weak.
“He’s still alive, but he needs medical attention.” I said to my mother who was examining the zebra with interest.
“Put him in the cart.” commanded Celestia. “We’ll need to take him to a hospital. Then we can take him back to Canterlot so we can nurse him back to health.”
I lifted him off the ground and placed him gently in the cart. We resumed our progress, this time heading for the nearest hospital. I sat next to the zebra, a sense of pity filling my heart. I was only just learning medical spells at the time, but I had to do something. My horn glowed and the zebra’s body jolted slightly. His eyes cracked open for a second and my heart lept.
“Where… am… I?” the zebra asked. “It doesn’t feel like I’m dead…”
I smiled down at him. “Safe. Now, rest.”
The last of his brief surge of strength failed him and he drifted back into unconsciousness.
I never let this zebra leave my sight until we got to the hospital and he was taken for treatment. Even then, I paced back and forth in front of the room where he was taken into, waiting… waiting. At last, we were able to see him. He was propped up against a few pillows and he looked upon us with neither anger nor happiness. His impassive face accented his eyes, which had the most piercing gaze I had ever seen. I noticed that some of the doctors and nurses were shooting him glances of mingled pity and disgust.
“Why… W-why didn’t… You… j-just let… my pain… ugh… e-end?” The poor zebra struggled to say.
“Because we couldn’t just leave you there, crumpled on the road, unwanted.” I replied. I walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder, which I expected to be shrugged off but it wasn’t. “In a while, we’ll take you back to Canterlot. After you’ve healed, you can leave if you want to.”
A tear slid from his eye. “Why… are you being… ugh… s-so nice to me? After b-being… rejected and… s-spat on my whole life… W-why? W-what did I… do to deserve this?” He whimpered. “Y-you don’t… even know who… I-I am.”
“That’s true.” I said. “I’m Platinum Heart. You can call me Platinum or Heart. Nopony calls me by my full name.”
“My name is Golden Eye, you can call me Gold.” My brother said.
“So, what is your name?” I asked.
“I-I’m Silver Soul…”
“Everypony deserves a second chance, even you Silver.” Gold said looking the zebra in the eyes. “It doesn’t matter if we know you or not, you deserve better than what you have been put through, even though we may not know what you have been through, you deserve better.”
“But I… I never even… H-had a first chance… I’m a f-fucking freak!” He cried, but instantly whined in pain, his outburst having been too much for his injuries.
My brother looked at him sternly “Listen to me, you are not a freak, no matter what the other ponies think of you, to me you are somepony special, to us, My brother and my mother, you matter more to us than you think.”
“I…” The zebra looked down at the blanket that covered half of his body. “J-jumped in front… of your c-cart… on purpose… I was… s-so hungry… I was g-gonna starve… I couldn’t take it…”
“You will be better off with us, there is no need to throw your life away.” My brother stated, “Now you go ahead and get yourself some rest.”
My hand tightened slightly on the zebra. “We’ll let you have a few minutes after you wake up to decide your future.” I said, passing him a small loaf of bread, which he snatched up and devoured. The three of us left and as I left, I stopped in the doorway. “Rest up, Silver.”
“Yeah, I remember.” Gold said, who had finally caught up with us. “We were in Manehatten when that happened. That’s when we found you, Silver, and took you in.”
More tears spilled from his eyes as the memories of his helplessness and despair flooded back, along with the happiness he felt when he was finally accepted for who he was, not only by a good family, but a royal one at that. He had become a prince. His life had changed that very moment.
“You see, Silver?” whispered Heart. “Even if others call you a freak, you still have us, the ones who call you family.”
“Ugh! You adopted him? That’s funny.” came that sinister feminine voice again.
“What’s it to you, whoever you are!?” Gold shouted.
Her laughter echoed throughout the courtyard. “When it comes to you three… Everything. Celestia sure is something. But I must admit… Silver Soul sure does look yummy… Not as good as you two, but exotic and… spicy… I love rage. It just tingles my taste buds so nicely”
“Shut up, just shut up you… you… you monster!” Gold snapped back.
“Why don’t you come inside and make me, cutie?” The voice taunted.
“Silver, Heart, I’m getting tired of this bitch taunting us. What do you say we go in and just kill her now?” Gold growled angrily, quickly unsheathing his sword.
Silver snatched up his scythe, having dropped it during their shared moment, spinning the weapon expertly. “Now you’re talkin’!” He yelled.
Heart picked up his own staff, and with one fluid motion, slid the wooden end off it revealing an ethereal-like sword. “Even I have limits.” snarled Heart angrily.
"Come and try.” whispered the voice. which seemed to have faded away.
“I’ll do better than that, you freak!” Silver growled, before taking off in a sprint, followed by his two brothers. Reaching the castle doors, he kicked them in hard, snapping the rusted hinges as the doors swung open. What they all saw made their eyes widen to the size of disks.
In the far back of the throne room, sitting in the tall throne, was none other than the very monster that had possessed their aunt. The mare in the moon, Nightmare Moon. The very being the elements of harmony had supposedly destroyed.
“Mares and gentlecolts… We may be fucked…” Silver said to nopony in particular.
The mare smiled. She was tall, even in her sitting position. Standing, she may have been as tall as Golden Eye. She wore a skimpy navy blue dress that draped down her left leg, while her right one sat outside the slit in the side. Her form was pretty slender, mirroring Luna’s in almost every way, even her breasts, small C cups that her dress hung low over, showing most of her cleavage. She stared at the three brothers with… Hunger?
“You won’t leave here alive, Nightmare Moon!” Gold cried.
Moon burst out into psychotic laughter. “That’s no way to talk to a distant relative.”
This only served to make him even angrier. “You tried forcing aunt Luna to bring about eternal night, you are not family.” Gold retorted.
“Admittedly, That was a stupid decision on my part. I would have killed us all, but that’s neither here nor there. I’m very much a distant relative whether you like it or not. Luna and I will always be linked to one another. But I came back to try and find something to satisfy a growing hunger that I’ve not felt since my imprisonment on the moon.” Nightmare replied with a flick of her hand.
Heart pointed his ethereal sword at Nightmare Moon. “Looks like you’ve been forever unsatisfied.”
The alicorn laughed again. “Right you are, my cute stallion. I have been left unsatisfied. A millenia of built up desire and lust. I require a release. That is what I hunger for.”
Gold raised a brow. “What’s she talking about?”
Silver placed his hand on his brother’s shoulder. “Bro… She’s horny as fuck.” He stated bluntly, making it simple for his Gold.
“Fuck, and you’re telling me that she wants… us?” Gold asked worriedly.
“If needs be, son of the sun.” Moon replied with a lick of her lips.
“N-No! I won’t let you have my brothers!” Gold shouted “If you want to get to them, You’ll have to take me down first!”
Moon sighed. “I was hoping I wouldn’t have to do this… But… You two may thank your brother for this.”
“Guys… this isn’t my usual strategy here… but maybe we should get the fuck out now!” said Heart.
“Agreed! I want to keep my virginity for just a little while longer!” Silver whimpered.
“I will not risk her following us back home, I am staying to cover your escape.” Gold called out, brandishing his sword.
“Well… I can’t leave you here alone, Gold.” said Heart nobly. “Silver, get out.”
Silver turned to run, but ended up running straight into the castle doors. Them having slammed right before him. “Owww…”
“Ooohh… A virgin. My favorite. I can’t let you leave.” Moon said with lust in her voice.
“Leave him alone!” Gold cried as he charged at Moon, sword raised, ready to strike.
Nightmare formed her ethereal armor and an intricate staff in her hand, tipped with a moon steel blade. She spun it around herself, before bringing it up to counter Gold’s attack.
“Heart, Help me out here!” Gold called out, pressing the attack.
Heart tried to move, but something rooted him in place. He could only watch his eldest brother take on Nightmare Moon, alone.
Moon smiled widely as their blades collided, exposing her sharp canines. She dislodged her staff and spun it back around, attempting to strike Gold’s kidney.
Gold leapt back to avoid her attack and lunged forward again to continue attacking.
Moon blocked his every onslaught with expertise. She brought the blade up in upper cut, catching hilt of Golden’s sword, wrenching it from his grip. The sword spun off into the air, before stabbing into the floor a ways back. She then spun the staff around and slammed it against the stallion’s skull, knocking him to the floor. “Next!”
“Gold!” yelled both Silver and Heart as he collapsed.
“Big... Mistake…” Gold grunted before blacking out.
The zebra growled loudly, before teleporting, reappearing behind Nightmare. He swung his scythe around and caught her helm in the crook of the blade, slamming her face first into the throne.
Heart seized this opportunity and leaped towards Moon’s fallen form, but Nightmare Moon sprung to her hooves and caught Heart on the side with her staff, sending him flying across the room. He formed a shield around himself just in time, however, he was too weak to move and could only watch as Silver started his attack.
“You… You… Monster…” Silver spat his words like venom. “I’m going to shove you into the farthest reaches of hell and then… I’m gonna fucking dig deeper!” He roared before taking his weapon and sweeping Moon’s hooves out from under her.
She quickly caught herself, using her large wings to keep flight. She rose higher as Silver swung at her repeatedly. “You little brat!” She growled and caught Silver in her magic, slamming him into one of the pillars that held up the roof, knocking him flat out.
“No…” weakly stated Heart, rising from the ground and picking up his ethereal staff-sword. His eyes moved from Gold to Silver, both expertly taken out by Nightmare Moon. He suddenly felt power surging through him as he walked towards Moon.
Nightmare Moon turned and looked straight at the advancing figure. “Haven’t you had enough?” she asked, twirling her staff.
“No one… hurts… them…” Heart breathed heavily, gripping his weapon tightly. “No one.”
Nightmare sighed. “Stallions never learn, do they?”
“Never.” agreed Heart, drawing ever closer to Nightmare Moon.
Her eyes narrowed at the black stallion. “Why are things never easy? Fine. You want to fight? I’ll fight.” She leaped at Heart, propelling herself faster with her wings, before swinging the blunt end of her staff at his head.
Heart lowered his staff-sword and flattened himself to the ground as she passed over him. He swung his sword at her, cutting a small gash into her side, making her scream in rage.
Moon teleported mid air and reappeared next to Heart, slamming the flat of her blade into his face. She teleported again and jabbed the blunt end of her staff into his gut. Once again she teleported, this time whacking the stallion in the back of his head, knocking him face first into the floor, forcing Heart to finally black out.
Moon threw down her staff. “You couldn’t have just helped me out. No. I have to knock you all unconscious.” She groaned to herself. “Oh well. It just get’s easier from here.”
Author's Note
And now, the clop starts. *rubs hands together*  
The next three chapters will follow Silver, Gold and Platinum, each one with their own chapter, and what happens to them after this bit. The next chapters are written by everyone (of course) but most of the writing will be done by the owner of the OC pony.  
If you need a guide:  
Auxiliary Booster = Silver Soul  
Mist Shaker = Golden Eye  
AscendingAnthem = Platinum Heart  
So, each chapter will have completely different styles of writing. It's a little different, but hey, what can ya do?

Silver
Deep in a dark dungeon, only lit by a magic torch here and there, laying on a bed of straw, was a young mare. She was a small zebracorn at the age of 18. Her body was toned with firm, but small muscles, leaving her still with a slender body, curving delicately in certain spots. Her fur was a soft silver with intricate black stripes across her body. Her mane and tail were short, but frizzy, colored light blue with jagged black stripes running through it. She seemed to be asleep.
This mare was none other than Silver Soul, the very mare that had once been a stallion and adopted brother of Celestia’s offspring.
She was wearing the clothes that she had been wearing when when she had been a male, a tight pair of black slim jeans that hugged her legs and a plain blue short sleeve shirt, only ripped in a few places.
Silver’s eyes slowly cracked open as a low groan escaped her. “W-what happened?” Her groggy voice asked in the dull lighting. Her eyes slowly adjusted to the light to find that she was in an open cell, deep in the underbelly of the castle. “Am I still in the castle?”
Silver slowly pushed herself upright, raising a brow as she felt extra weight on her chest. She looked down to find two D sized breasts jutting out from her chest. “Oh mother…” She gasped.
She reached up and grabbed one, giving it an experimental squeeze, making a jolt of pleasure run through her. They were real for sure. She then looked down at the rest of her body. “Wh… What?”
Silver pulled herself out of the bed of straw and stood, finding that she was a little off balance, having to catch herself on the wall. “What the fuck did Nightmare do to me?”
Finally finding her balance, Silver pushed off the wall and cautiously walked out of the cell, glancing down the corridor, looking both ways. “Golden!? Heart!? Anypony!?” She called, only to hear the echo of her voice.
Shaking her head, she decided to go left.
The hall seemed to go on forever. More and more walk way came from the dark distance as she walked. “How long is this damn thing?” As soon as she said this, one of the tiles she stepped on sunk into the floor, tripping the mare, in which she fell flat on her stomach, whimpering in pain as her breasts made contact with the hard floor.
Silver jumped, squeaking loudly as a wall slammed down an inch from her snout, blocking off the rest of the corridor. “Aw great. Now where do I-” She tried to say, but was cut off by a loud rumbling sound to her left. She quickly looked that way to find a staircase, leading upwards.
The zebra pushed herself back onto her hooves and followed the new path. She soon found herself in a hall of armor. She glanced around. The place looked ominous. “Well doesn’t this just look homey? Can’t believe mother lived here.” Silver said to herself.
She shook her head and continued walking. “Is this like some sort of game? Why the hell am I a chick? And why did Moon lose me in the castle? There’s too many fucking unanswered questions! I should have stayed in fucking bed!” Her angered yells echoed in the corridor.
The mare sighed, before continuing to explore. “Why is this place such a maze? Mother and Luna must have gotten lost every day…” She whispered as she looked around at the many corridors and stairways. “I can’t choose which way I want to go.” Silver paused. “Now I’m talking to myself… Eeyup… I’ve lost it.”
Silver soon found herself in the middle of a junction of corridors. “Great. Now what?” She looked at each of the halls. They all looked exactly the same. She tried to use a tracer spell, but her horn merely fizzled out. “The hell? Ugh…”
After a moment of thinking, she took the one right next to the one to the far right. As she walked, Silver began to hear the creepy sound of an organ being played. “Where’s that coming from?” The sound was becoming louder the further she walked. “Maybe it’s Nightmare Moon. Maybe she’ll turn me back if I ask nicely… Fuck no. I slammed her face into a throne.”
The mare continued walking, forced to listen to that creepy organ music. She soon neared the end of the hallway, finding that it broke open into a giant library. Silver looked around in awe at the vast array of books, some of them having been taken down and placed in piles. “Damn… This is bigger than the one at home.”
The organ music was pretty loud by now, so Silver made to go in the direction of it, walking out of the library and into another hallway. The music echoed through it like a bass tube. Silver just shrugged and followed it. “I really hope I can sort this shit out.” She groaned to herself as she reached the end of the hall and entered the room that it lead to.
Silver’s eyes widened. In the far side of the room, sitting at a huge, brass pipe organ, was Nightmare Moon. Her fingers played a rough melody while her eyes stayed lightly shut. She hadn’t seemed to notice Silver's entrance.
Silver gulped as she came up with a way to announce her presence. ‘This will not end well… I can already feel it in my gut.’ She thought as she took a step inside. “I-I didn’t know you played.” The mare said with as much courage as she could muster.
Moon stopped playing and opened her eyes, turning to peer back at Silver. A smile inched across her lips. “Ah, Silver Soul. I did do a good job on you didn’t I? To answer your question, yes I do. Something I picked up from Luna.”
Silver’s stomach knotted up. “You did turn me. Why?”
“Of course I turned you and your new sisters. I need you like that for the things I plan to do to you.”
“Sisters? I don’t ha-” She paused as the realization hit her like a rock. “You turned them too!?”
Moon giggled. “Maybe. But you don’t have to worry about them.” The dark alicorn said in a low tone as she stood and strode towards the smaller mare. She licked her lips.
“W-why not?” Silver questioned in a suddenly weak, shy sounding voice. A slight blush formed on her cheeks as Nightmare came closer. She looked away, trying to hide it.
The alicorn placed her hand under Silver’s chin and made her look up into Moon’s reptilian eyes. “Because… All you need to focus on is me, Silver. I am your center of attention. Your alpha and omega. Your every want, desire, and need… Your admirer.”
Silver blushed harder at the words. She opened her mouth to speak, but was cut off when Moon shoved her lips against Silver’s. The zebra’s eyes grew wide as her maw was taken advantage of, Moon’s tongue invading every inch of it, tasting the virgin.
She squeaked into the alicorn’s maw when she felt her ass be squeezed firmly by Nightmare, then moaned as the hands that held her began to massage both cheeks. Silver’s eyes slowly began to close as her body forced her to enjoy the treatment.
This lasted but for only a minute, before Moon broke the kiss, leaving Silver dazed. She looked at the smaller mare through half lidded eyes. “You are so adorable… Absolutely cute. I’m going to have fun with you.” She cooed, before teleporting them both into Luna’s old chambers, still elaborately designed to fit the tastes of royalty. Moon roughly pushed Silver down onto the bed and leaned over the side of the bed to lay her body across the zebra’s and nibble on her neck..
“What… What are you doing?” Silver panted out as the pleasure from Nightmare’s movements invaded her mind.
The alicorn moved up to her ear and whispered. “Everything you know you want me to do… And more.” Her voice alone was enough to make Silver a little wet, sending shivers down her spine. Moon went back to her teasing, slowly working her way down Silver’s neck and across her collarbone, until she reached the collar of the mares shirt. “Aww. How could I forget to undress you first? Silly me.” Moon said in a soft, yet lusty tone as she reached down and pulled up Silver’s shirt and pulled it off over the mare’s head, leaving her exposed.
Silver blushed even deeper as Moon got the full view of her breasts.
“You are so cute. I think I’ll take it slow with you, since you’re the youngest.” Nightmare said as she leaned down to plant a trail of kisses from where she had left off then across her breasts, before dragging a slow, pleasurable, teasing lick across her Silver’s tender nipple, causing the mare to whimper loudly in pleasure.
“M-Moon… hahh… W-why us?”
Moon pulled away from Silver’s nipple for a moment to answer. “Because I wanted you three. I knew Celestia would send you.”
“B-but why did you call me a freak if you wanted me like this?”
“Let me ask you something.”
“What?” Silver looked at Nightmare curiously.
“Do you know what a futa is?”
Silver’s eyes widened, knowing exactly what she meant. “Don’t tell me you’re a-... a-”
“A futa? Why yes, Silver. I am.” Moon finished.
“A-a-and you want t-to take-”
“Your virginity? That’s exactly what I want.” She finished again.
Silver began to slowly try to crawl her way out from under Moon. “Y-you know… I-I think I should just go now… I uhhh… F-forgot to do something back home.” She said, laughing weakly.
Moon grabbed her shoulders and slammed the mare back down onto the bed. “You wouldn’t leave a fellow freak would you?”
“Gee... I don’t know. It’s kinda just that… I don’t like dick!”
“Well you’ll learn then won’t you?” Moon said with a sudden rape face.
Silver shrank back in fear. “There is no way I am this unlucky…”
“No. You are very lucky that you woke first, because I feel like being gentle right now.” As Moon said this, she begun stripping out of her half dress, half armor, letting it all drop to the floor in a pile that she simply kicked away. Her whole body, save for her breasts and crotch were exposed. Then taking a firm grip of Silver’s horn, she hooked it under her bra strap, using the sharp point to snap the elastic. The black bra fell away, showing her C cups to the smaller mare, who’s breast were somehow bigger.
Silver squeaked as she felt Nightmare grind against her crotch. She could feel the large, throbbing bulge against her still fully covered lower lips as they were rubbed against. The feeling made her whimper.
Moon thrust her breasts against Silvers face, smothering her in something she had always wanted… Just in a different situation. “Lick them.” She commanded.
Not wanting to piss her off, Silver went to work, liking and sucking at them one at time.
“Mmmm… Yesss… Such a good girl.” Nightmare moaned in pleasure at the feeling of the smaller mares tongue. “I was wrong to call you a freak… You’re an adorable little angel… Oooooo…”
Silver couldn’t help but enjoy what she was doing, full heartedly sucking on the tender nipples. Got tits in your face, might as well enjoy them. But her enjoyment was cut short when Nightmare pulled them away, making silver whimper in protest.
Moon shushed her. “Now, now. Don’t do that. You don’t want me to punish you, now do you?”
Silver quickly shook her head.
“I just thought that such a good girl deserves a reward, don’t you agree?”
Silver nodded.
“Good. Now relax and enjoy your reward.” Moon leaned down and began trailing her tongue slowly down Silver’s body, paying special attention to sensitives spots. Reaching Silver’s navel, she began licking and sucking against it, making Silver break out into helpless giggles. She pulled away, smiling lustfully at the blushing zebra. “You are so fucking cute it hurts.”
Silver mumbled what sounded like a thank you, only serving to make herself look even cuter.
Moon reach for Silver’s pants button, undoing it along with the zipper, before slowly pulling the tight fitting jeans off, exposing a pair of soaked underwear. “Do I make you excited, Silver?” Moon asked as she slid the underwear off the mares body, finally exposing the wet, virgin lips.
Silver forced herself to answer. “Y-yes!”
The alicorn giggled, ligking her lips. “Good…”
Moon leaned back in and dragged a long, teasing lick up Silver’s inner thigh. She then worked her tongue in a circle around the zebra’s marehood.
Silver whimpered loudly at the teasing sensation. She panted hard from the treatment. Her hips bucked upward needily, whining as as Nightmare came dangerously close to her clit, only to pull away. Aroused juices spilled out of her needy folds, begging for the attention that they were denied of.
“Tell me what it is you want, my dear princess…” Moon said in a lustful growl.
“I-.... I-I want you t-to stop…” Silver paused to pant. The alicorn glared up at her, but softened at what she heard next. “S-stop teasing me!”
Moon smiled widely. “I’d be more than happy to.” She replied, taking a firm grip of the mares thighs, she moved in to place a gentle kiss right on the virgin lips, causing Silver’s back to arch in pleasure. “Mmmm… I love how sensitive you are.” She then leaned back in to drag a slow lick across the sensitive flesh.
Silver cried out in ecstasy as Nightmare began lapping at her delicate flower, making sure to use longer, slower strokes across her clit. “F-fuck... Ahhhh... Oh fuck... That feels so good...”
Moon began working her tongue in a diagonal pattern, sloppily grinding the muscle against Silver’s gushing pussy, slightly digging into the tight folds every other lick.
It all drove Silver’s arousal through the roof. She no longer cared that Moon was a futa. She wanted- No, needed the release. She needed Nightmare. Her mind filled with pleasure and need as Moon worked her virgin pussy. “Ahhhh! M-Moon! F-fuck… I n-need- Ahhh! I need you!” She cried in her pleasure induced bliss.
Nightmare moaned against Silver’s snatch as she obliged to the mare’s begging, thrusting her tongue between her puffy lips, wiggling the muscle inside. Who was she to deny her good little zebra her release?
Silver’s back arched harder as she threw her head back, crying out in ecstasy. She clawed at the sheets, helpless to the intense waves of pleasure, feeling Nightmare’s wonderfully skilled tongue wiggle and swirl around within her depths. Her whole body writhed in the feeling of being invaded by the alicorn’s pleasureful tongue as it tasted her insides, the virgin flesh touched by no other.
This excited Moon to no end. Her own cute, sexy virgin to do whatever she wanted to and would get next to no resistance. Out of her excitement, Moon dug deeper into the virgin pussy, tasting even more of her as Silver’s warm love juices spilled onto her tongue, sending shivers down her spine and through her wings.
Silvers body soon began to grow tense as her orgasm approached. Her cries of pleasure turned into small screams as her pussy became more and more sensitive. There was no way she could have not enjoyed this. She began to squeeze her thighs around Moon’s shoulders pulling her closer, trying to get her as deep as she could.
Nightmare worked overtime, swirling her tongue inside of her slowly clamping pussy, until finally Silver’s screams reached their peak. “I-I’m c-cumming! Fuck! Ahhhhhhh!” Silver’s hands flew to the back of Nightmare’s head, grasping her mane and pulling her hard against her crotch in helpless pleasure. Her whole body went rigid as her first ever orgasm as a mare hit, spilling her virgin cum straight into Moon’s maw, nearly choking her. Some of the liquids even spilled out past Moon’s lips and soaked the sheets.
Moon was forced to swallow it or choke on the precious fluids, though made no complaints, quite enjoying the taste of the virgin and gladly drinking as much as she could.
When the orgasmic spasms finally ended, Silver’s legs released the alicorns head, letting her pull away, panting. “My… When was the last time you came, Silver?” Moon asked, licking the sticky mare cum off her lips and chin.
Silver blushed. “I… don’t… really… g-get... enough… alone t-time… to do… that…” She replied through her afterglow.
Moon crawled back on top of the zebra and brushed her frizzy mane out of her eyes. She looked down at the mare with a soft, comforting gaze. “Awww… Poor baby. Celly never let you have any time to yourself?”
Silver shook her head. “Ever since she and my br-... sisters found me, mother doesn’t hardly let me out of her sight back at the castle. I’ve never even had a real marefriend. Mother would always scare them off, by telling them the things she would do to them if they broke my heart.” She replied, having finally caught her breath.
“She’s afraid you’ll be rejected for what you are?” Moon questioned.
“I was rejected solely for that reason my entire life…”
“You’re just like me then… Misunderstood for the looks. I was ignorant in trying to bring about an eternal night. I wasn’t thinking. Don’t think I’m about to say sorry or anything. I’m just saying I was ignorant.”
“I understand.” Silver cooed.
“I know you do. That’s what I like about you. Now, Silver… I want you to relax. It will make things easier on the both of us.” Nightmare instructed.
Silver did as she was told, relaxing herself onto the bed. “Sure… Why?”
“Because, my little princess… I want your flower.” Moon replied as she slipped off her underwear, exposing her fully erect cock.
Silver stared at it in shock. “Uh oh…” It was long and thick, throbbing with the beat of her heart. Its thick head was coated lightly in slick pre cum from Moon’s level of arousal.
“But first.” Moon slowly brought it up to Silver’s snout, wiggling in her face. “Lick it clean like a good girl.”
“Umm… I uhh… C-can I-”
“Lick it or I’ll go rough.” Moon cut Silver off in her still soothing tone.
The zebra’s eyes widened further. She didn’t want to know what would happen if Moon went ‘rough’. Taking a deep breath and swallowing her pride, she stuck out her tongue and dragged it across the futa’s pre-coated head, tasting the bitter/sweet liquid. The flavor sent a shiver down her spine. She didn’t at all hate the taste, but knowing what it was she was licking still made it wrong in her mind. She swirled her tongue across the tip, licking up the pre that had built up, but more just kept coming out as she cleaned
Moon moaned loudly at the contact. “Oooohh. It’s been so long since I’ve felt something like that. You’re such a good girl, Silver. Now open your mouth.”
Silver looked up at Moon, her eyes pleading for this not to continue.
“Do it… Or I’ll make a mess of you.”
Whimpering, she did as she was told and slowly parted her lips.
“There… That’s a good girl.” Moon said as she placed a hand on the back of Silver’s head and slowly pushed her thick head into the mare’s open maw. "Just relax. I'll be gentle."
Moon slowly began rocking her hips, gently driving the hot flesh in and out of Silver’s maw, the thick, sensitive head grinding against Silver’s tongue and the textured roof of her maw.. “Oh… T-that feels nice…” She settled herself down on Silver’s upper stomach, placing the part of the shaft that wouldn’t fit, between the zebra’s breast. She grabbed them both and squeezed them around her thick flesh.
Silver squeaked past the thick member at the the oddly pleasurable feeling. She subconsciously started to suckle on Moon’s head, as it still slowly slid in and out of her maw, enticing louder moans from the alicorn. She purred as she tasted Moon’s pre, swallowing it as some of it spilled out onto her tongue.
“T-that’s it, Silver. Ahhhh… Give in…” She moaned out as her strokes became a little faster. “Ooooh… You f-feel… Ahhhh... e-eager.”
‘Why am I enjoying this as much as I am?’ Silver thought as she willingly took more of Moon’s throbbing cock into her maw, resisting the urge to gag as it hit the back of her throat. “I have Nightmare Moon’s cock in my mouth! I should not be enjoying this!’ She purred loudly when she felt Moon’s thrusts as they became faster and a little harder. ‘But I am enjoying it… It can’t be that bad then… Can it?’
Moon’s pants and heated groans grew louder as she now fucked Silver’s maw with a heated passion. “S-Silver! Oooohh fuck… I-I’m close!”
Silver sucked harder, tilting her head every other stroke, trying to milk out Moon’s orgasm, succeeding just as she had hoped as she felt the alicorn go rigid.
Silver’s eyes went wide as Nightmare drove her flaring cock as far as it would go into the back of her throat, making the her gag, before Moon’s hot, sticky cum shot in thick ropes down her throat. Some of it spilled out past the thick shaft and landed on Silver’s breasts. She was forced to swallow every bit of it she could or drown in cum.
Moon growled lustfully as the muscles in the back of the mare’s throat milked at her head every time Silver swallowed, enticing every last bit of her seed from her cock.
Just when Silver thought she was about to pass out from lack of air, Moon pulled her saliva coated member out of her maw.
Silver gasped for air, before coughing up some of the thick cum that had ended up in her lungs.
“Oh my… I haven’t felt that good of a release in ages…” Moon said in a slightly dazed tone. “You are such a good girl, Silver. I think its time I let you have some real fun.” She continued as she repositioned herself on Silver’s body, Her large member resting against the mares soaked snatch. Silver’s legs were spread to give her better access.
Silver gazed up at nightmare, before she felt Moon’s lips lock with hers, tongue invading where her cock had just been, gladly licking up her own seed, while grinding their sexes together, making both of them moan into each other.
A moment later, Moon broke the kiss and moved to lick up her own cum off of Silver’s breasts, before moving to her ear as she slowly positioned her throbbing member to where the head rested against the wet lower lips.. “I hope you’re ready, my delicate flower… This may hurt at first, but it wont last long. I promise.” She whispered.
Silver had to bite her lip to keep from crying out in pleasure as the thick head was pushed through her tight slit. Her warm wetness coated the large member in natural lubricant, making her tightness serve as less of a resistance as she pushed slowly deeper.
“T-that’s tight… Ooooohh… S-so tight…” Moon moaned when Silver’s inner walls clenched around her cock as it spread the mare open. She had only gone about two and a half inches in, before she was blocked by a virgin wall, making Silver flinch and whine in both pleasure and slight pain.
“W-what is that?” Silver questioned.
“Your hymen. I have to break it.” Moon replied.
Silver whined. “Won’t that h-hurt?”
“Yes… Very much. Just relax. It won’t last long.” She said softly as Silver felt the pressure on her hymen begin to build, sending pain coursing through her system.
“P-please, no! Don’t! I-AHHHHHHH!” Silver screamed as loud as she could as she felt the barrier burst and Moon’s cock sink deeper into her. The pain was so intense, worse than anything she had ever felt since that day he had jumped out in front of Celestia’s cart.
Blood poured out of her horribly aching marehood, leaking past Moon’s cock and spilling onto the bed. Moon just kept pushing deeper into the tightness.
Silver tried to push Nightmare away, the pain becoming too much, but to no avail. The alicorn didn’t stop until she was fully hilted inside of the zebra..
Moon looked down at Silver to see tears streaming out of her eyes, whimpering and whining loudly. She smiled and leaned down to lick up the tears. “Shhh… Shhh… It’s over… Shhh... I know it hurts.” She whispered and hugged Silver, who hugged back, her fingers digging into Moon’s shoulders as the pain slowly subsided, leaving only the pleasureful feeling of being full.
Silver moaned softly and rolled her hips experimentally, suddenly liking how this new sensation made her feel.
Moon pulled away to peer down at Silver, grinning widely. “Somepony’s feeling better.” She giggled.
Silver blushed deeply.
“Aww. Now that’s not fair! Stop being so cute! You’re playing with my head!” Moon playfully scolded.
Silver blushed even deeper and looked away.
Nightmare placed her hand under Silver’s chin and made her look back up at her, before locking lips with the mare. Moon slowly began to pull her cock out and, just as slowly thrust back in, hilting inside of her again.
Silver broke the kiss with a loud gasp of pleasure at being hilted in again, filling her so full it nearly hurt. “Oh f-fuck… Fuck me… I-I need it!” She cried with need.
Moon just simply pulled all the way out, popping the thick head out of Silver.
“W-what did you do that for!?” Silver whined, but was silenced by a finger to her lips.
“I’m doing what you want me to. Don’t question me. Now roll over.”
Still frowning, Silver did as she was told, rolling over onto her stomach. Moon grabbed her ass and lifted it into the air, while spreading her legs apart. “You have such beautiful lips. It’s almost a shame I’m to ruin them.”
Silver looked behind her at Moon as the alicorn lined herself up a second time. She cried out in ecstasy as she was penetrated again.
Moon began to thrust in and out of Silver, shoving her cock into her freshly deflowered pussy. She moaned loudly at how tight Silver was.
Helpless to the pleasure, Silver bit down into the sheets. She moaned uncontrollably loud, finding next to no strength left in her body, only the desire for this to go on was left. It felt so indescribably pleasureful. Silver didn’t want it to end.
Moon’s pace began to slowly increase, driving herself in and out of the mare with a passion. She groaned loudly as her thick head ground against Silver’s inner walls. Oh how she wanted to make this mare and her sisters hers. She wanted them so badly. Needed them even. All of them.
Silver was in her own state of a pleasured bliss, the feeling of Nightmare deep inside of her, fucking her brains out. She squealed when she felt the sting of a sharp, pleasureful smack to her ass. The sting began to seep into her, making a mixture of pleasure and pain to add to the bliss.
“Y-yes! This is what I-I have craved for a millenium! The r-release… Ahhh!... your mother deprived me of!” Moon cried as she gave Silver another smack on her ass.
Silver enjoyed every second of this, wanting more, but unable to speak, due to the the massive amount of euphoria that ravaged her mind, while Moon ravaged her body. She screamed as she came then and there. No warning. Her juices spewed across the alicorn’s still thrusting cock, only serving to make her thrust faster.
She let go of the sheets and screamed with every thrust. She drove herself back against Nightmare in time with her thrusts, driving her cock even deeper.
Moon could feel her orgasm approach fast. She grabbed more of a firm hold of Silver’s ass and began to thrust as hard as she could into the zebra.
This time Silver could feel the gradual build of her orgasm, only making approach ever so much faster with the now rapid thrusts of her partner. Her inner walls constricted tighter around Moon’s cock, making thrusting more of a challenge and making Silver even more sensitive. “AHHHH! F-fuck! I-I… I-I’m gonna c-cum again!”
The alicorn lied herself across Silver’s back and reached around her to tweak her clit, her thrusts becoming faster and shorter compensate for her position.
That was all she needed to climax again. Silver screamed as her warm liquids spilled out of her for a third time total, spilling out onto the sheets with her other two orgasms.
Silver’s pussy milked at Moon’s cock as she continued to thrust, before she finally shoved herself hilt deep back inside of the zebra, pushing up against her cervix. She groaned loudly as she spilled her load into Silver, shooting stream after stream of warm cum into her womb with how deep she had penetrated. “Yes! Yes! Take it all! Fuck yes!”
Silver screamed at the sensation of being filled even further. She could feel every spurt of cum splash up against her insides, causing her body to stiffen and spasm with pleasure.
When Moon’s orgasm finally ended, Silver collapsed beneath the alicorn, teetering somewhere between awake and pure unconsciousness.
Nightmare Moon nibbled on Silver’s ear, before whispering into it. “Did… some… pony… enjoy… them… selves?”
Silver simply gave a weak nod in her pleasure induced bliss, before drifting off into a deep, dreamless sleep.
Moon smiled as she slowly pulled her cum coated cock free. “You naughty mare.”

                           Gold                            
//-------------------------------------------------------//
Gold
Deep inside the old castle, was a room. The room was dark, lit only by a few torches. In the center of the room, In a bed of straw on the stone floor, lay a white pegasus mare. Her body was well toned and her muscles well defined, her curvature was on average for an athletic mare. This mare was in her mid 20’s. Her short mane and tail are a royal blue, with streaks of light blue.
This mare is the one and only Golden Eye, she was a very strong stallion at one point, always putting his life on the line for his brothers, and Celestia’s oldest child
Gold’s eyes snapped open and began looking around the room, “Wh-where am I? What is this place? Am I still in the castle? Lastly, why do I sound like a mare?” She asked no one in particular. She pushed herself up and felt something fall downward on her chest. She looked down to see two borderline D cup breasts protruding from her chest.
Her eyes widened. “I’m a fucking mare! Why!? This is not cool! Not fucking cool!”
Gold had to take several deep breaths to calm herself. “Dammit… What ever happened to me, I’m sure I can get an explanation from Nightmare Moon when I see her again.” Gold stood herself up only to stumble over to a nearby wall, “Dammit, she really fucked me up in that fight. Nevermind that now, I need to focus on getting my armor and either getting to Nightmare Moon or getting the hell out of this castle and then getting turned back into a stallion.”
After resting for a minute she pushed herself off the wall and strode forward, pulling the door to her room open to find that it lead down two different hallways. “Silver, Heart, you there?” she asked.
No reply.
“Dammit, looks like I have to search for my brothers too.” Gold said as she took a left and continued down the dimly lit hallway.
As she continued walking, due to her limited field of view from the lack of consistent lighting, she didn’t see the hole in front of her until it was too late. She screamed as she fell into the hole in the floor and landed on the bottom of a pit with a dull thud, “Ugh, fucking holes, now how am I going to get out of here, there’s no fucking exit.” she complained as she searched the small room for a lever or switch until she came across what felt like a hole in the wall. “What the fuck? I wonder what’s on the other side?” Gold asked herself out of curiosity and pushed her arm into the hole and began searching for a lever or switch on the other side.
After a moment of blind searching, she felt her hand catch onto something and she instinctively pulled it down, which in turn, caused the wall to spin around, and reveal a hall of armor. “What the fuck is this place?” Gold questioned. “And by the looks of it somepony may have been here a few minutes ago.” She said to herself as she looked down at the hoofprints in the dust of the rug that ran the length of the hall. Looking at the direction they were leading she followed them but were cut off as she came to the end of the rug. “I guess I start taking my own path from here.” She said as she took the path to the left, hoping to find her brothers.
After walking down the hall for what seemed like hours, Gold began to catch a cold draft, “Apparently this hallway leads to the courtyard or something.” Gold said as she continued walking, following the draft.
After following the draft a little further, Gold found herself standing in an outdoors area, but it looked nothing like the courtyard, “Hm, I must be in the castle gardens right now, maybe I should search the area for anything that might lead me to Nightmare Moon from here.” Gold said as she began to look around, staying alert for anything that could potentially harm her.
“Hm, there’s nothing here but one new path and the path I just came from, I guess I should follow the path I just found.” she stated as she started down the path, which was a little more well lit than the one she was in.
Suddenly she thought she heard hoofsteps behind her, “Silver… Heart… is that you?”
No reply.
“Huh, I must be hearing things.” Gold said, shaking her head, and continued onward.
After walking a bit further down the corridor Gold noticed a room with a rather large bed in the middle noticing the old sheets as those of luna’s covers when they lived here. They seemed to be freshly stained and ruined. “Aren’t they magnificent.” a voice said from behind.
Gold whipped around to come face to face with Nightmare Moon. “How long have you been following me? And what have you done with my brothers?” Gold spat , her words filled with venom.
“Oh my, still sore about being beaten earlier, are we?” Moon said sarcastically. “Your sisters are just fine, although I did have some fun with Silver a while ago.”
“I swear if you did anything to hurt hi-… wait did you say sisters?” Gold questioned curiously. “What are you talking about, having ‘fun’ with Silver?”
“Did I stutter? Of course I said sisters, as for what I mean by having ‘fun’ with Silver, you will soon find out for yourself.” Moon replied, lust settling in on her voice as she picked Gold up in her magic and threw her onto the bed. Then used her it to bind her arms over her head.
Gold tried to struggle against her bonds, but to no avail. “What the fuck are you doing? Are you going to…” Gold questioned while looking up at Moon fearfully as what she had for clothing was stripped from her body, exposing her muscular form to Nightmare Moon.
“Yes, I’m going to give you the best night of your life.” Moon said, gesturing to a large member between her legs.
Gold’s eyes widened in fear as she gazed at the the throbbing flesh. “Y-y-you mean... that you’re gonna...f-f-f-fuck me?!” She cried out in fear of what was about to happen, beginning to thrash about trying to escape, but her bonds held fast, preventing her from escaping.
As Gold struggled against her bonds, Nightmare climbed onto the bed, reaching around her and placing the ball of a ball gag in her mouth and fastening it in place behind her head. “I was actually going to play with you first but if you want to get it over with sooner then I’m afraid you’ll just have to endure.” she said as she ran her fingers along Golds slit, eliciting a weak muffled cry from her.
Moon continued rubbing Golds needy lips while she reached up and began fondling her breast, tweaking her nipple, increasing the pleasure she was giving to Gold, causing her to moan lightly from the unwanted pleasure. Moon pulled her fingers away to notice that they were damp with what appeared to be Gold’s arousal. “You say that you don’t want this, yet your body says it wants more.”
Gold could only sigh in defeat as she had no choice but to take what she was being given as she cursed her body for enjoying the pleasure.
“That’s a good girl, just give in and relax.” Moon purred lustfully into Golds ear, as she shoved a finger into Golds moist folds before leaning in to start licking and suckling on her other nipple
Gold moaned as she felt the intruder begin to work it’s way in and out of her, coating the finger in her arousal as her breasts were fondled, groped and suckled on.
Moon then began licking a trail slowly down past Gold’s stomach and down to her ultimate goal.
Once she came face to face with Gold’s, marehood she pulled out her fingers and blew a single breath over her slick folds, teasing her.
Gold could only quiver from the sensation of Moon breathing on her wet marehood, causing her to squirm with pleasure.
“Tender, aren’t we?” Moon said as she closed the gap between her and Golds precious folds, licking from the base to her clit, eliciting a muffled cry of ecstasy from her, but whined when Moon pulled away. “Let’s just get rid of that gag shall we? I would rather like to hear your moans and cries clearly.” Moon said as she removed the ball gag, before moving back down to continue licking at Golds marehood.
“Ahhhh… I-It feels… It feels so… D-damn… Good.” Gold moaned loudly.
Hearing this, Moon pressed her tongue into Golds tight crevice and began eating her out, wriggling her tongue and collecting all the juices she could coax out of her.
Gold cried out as she felt the slick muscle entered her. Her whole body spasmed with pleasure as her new sex was taken advantage of, throwing her headlong into heights of pleasure she had only heard of.
Moon slid her hand down the white mare’s thigh, before trailing it to her tight tail hole and slipping her fingers inside, working them in and out, loving the array of sounds her new toy made.
Gold’s moans increased in volume as the pleasure from both of her holes being penetrated intensified, which encouraged Moon to shove her tongue as deep as she possibly could, aiming to bring her to her first climax as a mare.
“Gahhhhhh…. F-fuck yes…” Gold cried out loudly signaling that her climax was getting near.
Moon intensified her efforts to force the mare to orgasm, hitting every sensitive spot possible with her tongue. She worked it in circles, wanting to taste every part of her.
“Ahhhhhh...I-I’m gonna...c-cum… soon!” Gold cried out in blissful pleasure.
Nightmare Moon reached down and began tweaking and playing with Golds clit eliciting several cries from her.
That was all it took, one tweak and a rub on her clit was enough to send Gold over the edge, causing her to arch her back hard and spray her juices into Moons willing mouth, splashing over her tongue, and even spilling out past her lips.
Moon swallowed what she could of Gold’s juices, before going and licking her still quite sensitive marehood clean.
“How do you feel?” Moon asked Gold after cleaning her.
“I-I feel like… I was...in heaven.” Gold panted.
“Well I think you deserve your reward, don’t you?” Moon purred lustfully.
“Mmhm.” Gold moaned as she sat up and stared at the large shaft, throbbing before her, sitting an inch from her snout. Her eyes widened. “Oh fuck…”
“Well?”
“I-I think I left something back in my room.” Gold said as she tried to get up off the bed, only to be pinned on her back, looking Nightmare in the eyes.
“I’m waiting, Golden.”
Gold, swallowing her pride, started by licking at the base of the shaft and trailing her tongue all the way up to the tip to swirl her tongue over Moon’s head. She then dragged her tongue back down to the base.
Moon whimpered loudly at the unexpected skill. “Ahhhh… W-who did you blow before me, Gold?”
Gold didn’t answer, but kept licking and swirling her tongue on Moons shaft, before enveloping her mouth around the thick head and started bobbing on Moons thick member.
Moon, in her lust induced haze while being blown, released Golds bonds, allowing her to fondle her balls. which caused the alicorn moan loudly.
Hearing Nightmare’s moans, Gold doubled her efforts and began going deeper taking all of moons shaft into her maw, deepthroating her, taking balls and all into her maw.
“Gahhhhh… fuck yes… Take it like your sister did...” Moon moaned loudly as the pleasure spread throughout her body, she reached down and began pushing on Gold’s head trying to get her to go deeper.
Moon’s moaning only encouraged Gold to pick up the pace, increasing the rate at which she delivered pleasure to the owner of the shaft she was deepthroating, trying to get her to cum.
“Ahhhhhhh…. I-I’m getting… close!” Moon cried out.
Hearing this Gold started going full throttle going as fast as she could while deep throating Moon trying to push her over the edge.
Moon couldn’t take it anymore. She bucked her hips one last time and pressed Golds face into her crotch, shoving her flared cock down Gold’s throat and shot rope after rope of her warm sticky load down her throat.
Gold gagged, but was forced to swallow it all, unable to pull free of Nightmare’s grip.
Once Moon was finished, she pulled out and sighed from the pleasurable experience, “That was… Great.” Moon panted lightly. “Now… Present yourself to me.”
Gold, knowing what would be coming next and afraid of what Moon would do to her if she refused, laid down on the bed with her legs spread waiting for Moon to have her way with her.
“Ready for round 3?” Moon said, lust heavy on her tone, but stayed where she was. “But I want to try something else.”
The magic shackles suddenly appeared back on Gold’s wrists and ankles, snapping them onto the bed. “W-what the hell are you doing!?”
Moon giggled. “I want to hear you laugh. I love your laugh. It excites me.” She replied as a feather appeared in her hand.
Gold’s eyes widened. “You wouldn’t…”
“I would…” She gave a sadistic smile. “And I will.”
The pegasus shook her head. “Nonononono! Anything but that!”
Moon slowly brought the feather closer to Gold, who jerked against the bonds, until the feather finally made contact with her side. She then furiously tickled the mare, smiling for every torturous second.
Gold burst out laughing, helpless to the tickling. “N-no! Hahahahaa! P-please!”
Moon giggled as she continued, moving the feather across Gold’s other sensitive spots. She slowly brought it to her pits, navel, nipples, all of them making Gold writhe in ticklish torture.
It was then that Moon reached her hoof.
“No!” Gold cried as Moon brought the feather closer, a sinister smile on her lips.
As soon as the torturous feather made contact with the tender frog of her hoof, the pegasus burst into laughter again. She laughed for so long and so hard that it hurt, so that when   
moon finally stopped, Gold was whimpering at the pain in her stomach and sides.
Nightmare tossed the feather away, before releasing the shackles as she crawled over top of Gold, Lining her cock up with Golds pussy. “I want you, Gold.”
“P-please… Just let us go.” Gold begged.
Without answering, Moon thrusted inside, parting her pussy lips with ease. She groaned, feeling the strong inner muscles clench and milk at her as she pushed deeper.
“Gahhhhhh… F-fuck.” Gold moaned from the penetration alone.
After waiting for Gold to adjust, Moon began slowly thrusting into her, drawing out the pleasure being given and received. “Ahhhhh… Fuck… Nyahhhh… You’re f-fucking tight, Gold... A-almost as tight as your sister.” She moaned as she finally hilted deep inside of the mare.
Gold panted loudly at the sensation of being filled to her limit. “I-I’m so f-full!” She cried as she instinctively rolled her hips against Nightmare’s crotch, causing her inner muscles to squeeze around the thick shaft that had buried itself into her deepest depths.
Moon leaned over, continuing to thrust into Gold, and pulled her into a kiss, which Gold returned without resistance or hesitation as she moaned into Moons maw.
Gold felt something pressing against her lips as if trying to pry her mouth open and without hesitation opened her mouth to allow the muscle to enter and wrestle with her own.
During their passionate kiss, Moon brought a hand up and began groping Gold’s left breast, occasionally grazing over her nipple, eliciting several small moans from her in combined pleasure.
Moon broke the kiss to regain her breath, then began kissing and nibbling along Golds neck while continuing to thrust into her and massaging her breast, causing Gold to moan loudly.
“Gahhhhh… F-fuck… Me harder!” Gold cried out, unable to control her lust.
“Y-you… Hahhhh… Want me… To...Mmmmm… F-fuck you… Harder?” Moon moaned out loudly. “Beg for…Ahhhhh... I-it.”
“Nyahhhhhh… P-please… Fuck me...Hahhh… H-harder… Fuck m-me… S-senseless… Please!” Gold cried out, begging to be ravaged.
Hearing Gold’s begging, Nightmare picked up the pace, thrusting as fast as she possibly could into her.
With the increase in Moons thrusting, Golds moans and cries became near screams as her orgasm quickly approached, her inner walls starting to contract around Moons large shaft as it continuously filled her at a rapid pace.
“S-sounds like… Someone’s...Hahhhhh… Getting close.” Moon moaned loudly. “Well… I have some… Nyahhhhh… N-news for… you… Mmmmmm... I-I’m getting… Gahhhhh… Close m-myself.” Moon said through heated grunts.
By now Gold was teetering on the edge, screaming in ecstasy. “I-I’m… Ahhhhhhhhh… G-gonna… I’m… I’m cumming!” Gold screamed as her body went rigid, her inner walls constricting around Moon’s thick rod in an orgasmic vice. Her warm cum spilled past the cock that was embedded deep inside of her, soaking Nightmare’s crotch and the bed beneath.
As soon as Gold had slipped over, feeling her cock caught in a tight embrace of pleasure and the warm mare cum spilling past her, coating her crotch, Moon threw her head back, groaning loudly as she shot load after load into Gold, filling her to the brim, causing the excess to spill out past her cock mixed with Gold’s juices.
“Oh my… Y-you were built up nicely.” Moon cooed at the obviously pleasured mare.
Gold said something inaudible through her blissful afterglow, about to drift off into a deep sleep before Moon got up off the bed. “I’m not done with you yet.” Moon said, getting up off of Gold.
“Wha-what? What do you mean you aren’t done with me?” Gold asked, a sudden expression of shock and confusion on her face.
“What I am talking about is... I want your ass, Golden.” Nightmare stated bluntly.
Gold’s eyes widened. “Wait, what!? N-no!”
“What was that!? Did you just say no?” Nightmare growled, before gently as she could, touched Gold’s thigh with a single finger.
Golden screamed in agony as pain like she had never felt before coursed through her body, rivaling the pain that Silver had felt when Moon had deflowered her.
After about a minute, Nightmare Moon released the painful spell and allowed Gold’s body to drop to the bed, where she lied panting. “Now… Will you cooperate?”
Gold just laid there, as if petrified by a cockatrice, her eyes still clamped shut tightly from the still present pain, although it is not as bad as when Moon was holding the spell.
“Now, you are going to do what I tell you when I tell you to do it.” Moon snarled. “Do you understand?”
Gold hesitated from the painful experience of which she had just been slammed with.
“Do you understand?” Moon repeated, her voice laced with venom.
Gold slowly nodded.
“Now, turn over and get on all fours, before I am given no choice but to use that spell again.” Moon commanded.
Gold slowly lifted herself up, wincing from the pain that still resided, and bent over on her hands and knees, tears streaming down her face.
“Now, are you going to be a good girl from here on out?” Nightmare asked asked.
Gold stayed silent and motionless. “Hm, I’ve never seen this before, refusing to answer me even after a threat of pain beyond your wildest dreams. That matters little now, your punishment will be very... forceful.” Moon said as she got behind her and lined herself up with Gold’s puckered tail hole.
“N-no...not there… Dammit l-let me go!” Gold cried out.
Nightmare ignored her and thrust forcefully inside, causing Gold to wince at the pain. Moon took a firm grip of her ass and, not even giving a moment for her to adjust, continued thrusting into her. “Yes! Ohhhh! Yes!” She cried as she pounded the mare beneath her.
Gold had to bite her lip to keep from screaming, the pain from Moon continuously hilting in her ass making more tears pour from her eyes. Her whimpers were muffled by her bottom lip, trying to keep at least some of her pride.
Moon reached her hand around the pegasus she was fucking senseless and rubbed against her soaked pussy lips.
Gold gasped loudly and moaned in a mixture of pain and pleasure. A mixture that was, for some reason, arousing. So much for pride.
Moon continued like this for another two minutes, Gold moaning loudly from her bitter/sweet treatment. Moon reached with her free hand and grabbed the mares wing. She yanked hard on it while thrusting harder and deeper into her, pushing her fingers deeper into her as well.
Gold screamed in both pleasure and pain as Moon thrust into her at a quickened pace.
The pain that had been but moments ago had subsided and made way for even more pleasure as she felt nothing more than the pleasure from her wings being pulled along with her pussy taking in two of Moons fingers, while being pounded in the ass, causing her orgasm to rise quickly. “I-I’m… Hahhhhhhh… Getting… Close… Ohhhhhhhh… S-so close!” Gold cried out in utter bliss.
Hearing Gold’s cries, Nightmare inserted a third finger and increased the rate at which she was pumping them in and out of her dripping snatch, while also increasing the pace at which she thrust into her ass. She kept continuously pulling at her wing. “I-I’m gonna cu… Ahhhhh… Cum!” Moon cried out uncontrollably. She slammed herself as far as she could go inside of Gold, her head flaring inside, before releasing violent spills of cum into the mares rectum, filling her to her limit. Moon’s mind went completely numb with pleasure as she emptied herself inside.
Feeling the mare behind her fill her was all it took to send Gold into her own orgasm, spilling generous amounts of her fluids onto Moons fingers and the bed beneath.
Finding she had little strength left, Moon collapsed on top of Gold, panting. “Y-you… sounded… like… you enjoyed… yourself... A-am I… right?” She whispered into the mares ear.
“Y-yeah… I… did… I-I… never… thought that… it… would feel… so… good.” Gold moaned out through exhausted pants. The feeling of Moon’s slowly softening cock still hilted deep inside of her, coated in warm sticky seed was something she never thought she would enjoy so much, yet here she was, about to pass out from being fucked senseless.
“You’re a naughty mare… Just like your little sister.” Moon said just as Gold finally slipped into unconsciousness.

//-------------------------------------------------------//
Platinum
Magic torches filled a small cell, in the middle of which a black coloured mare lay sleeping, her long silver mane trailing over the floor along with her tail. Her 21 year old unicorn form lay splayed on the ground she slept on. Her dark coloured body was well curved and extremely attractive. Her slender figure jolted slightly as she experienced a small nightmare.
This was Platinum Heart. Celestia’s middle child and who had once been a handsome stallion.
One of her eyes cracked open, revealing a startling green colour. The first feeling she felt? Pain. Her head hurt something awful. She sat up, rubbing her head as it throbbed painfully. “Son of a bitch, this hurts.” she moaned. She vaguely remembered Nightmare Moon beating her skull in with a staff while her brothers lay unconscious.
“Guys?” she yelled. “You here?” She only heard her own echoing voice. Fear shot through her. Where were her brothers? They definitely weren’t in the cell with her. She got up from the floor, something weighing her down at the front, but she thought nothing of it. She pulled and pushed against the door. Locked.
‘Silver? Gold? You out there?” she yelled. No response.
Then she realised something else. Her voice… what was with it? She looked around for a mirror, seeing one hanging on the wall. “A mirror… odd… wouldn’t think this cell would have something as good as a mirror.” she said. She walked over to the mirror and gasped. “What the-?!”
Heart rubbed her eyes, trying to wake up.
“This is all a dream.” she muttered. “One weird, yet oddly arousing dream. When I open my eyes, I’ll be normal and waking up somewhere that’s familiar. Possibly in my tent, still kinda drunk from last night.”
She opened her eyes. Nothing had changed.
“Oh, this is fucking weird.” she said as she examined her body.
Platinum Heart looked like somepony you would see from an issue of Playpony. Her body had a thick, rugged, Celestia look, all curves. Heart looked down, and saw herself looking at two massive D-cup breasts, jutting out proudly, lying covered under a simple t-shirt. She shut her eyes again, still hoping that this was a dream. But, when she opened her eyes, nothing had changed.
“O...k… “ slowly said Heart. “I’m a mare. An extremely hot one at that.”
She examined her clothes a little more closely. She seemed to be wearing the barest essentials to look actually dressed. She was wearing a t-shirt and that was all that stood between her breasts and the cool air and some very, VERY short shorts that presented her ass to perfection. Heart ran her hands down her body, giving her new breasts a squeeze, feeling pleasure rocket through her.
“Ok… they’re real.” she said, still examining herself. ‘What the hell happened? Was it Moon? Oh, I am going to find her, thank her for giving me this great body, and then force her to turn me back to a stallion.’ she thought. ‘Wait a second, I’m a unicorn! I can just do that myself. Granted, I’m not really allowed to do this, but it’s an emergency.’
Her horn glowed but then it stopped instantly. “The hell?” She tried again, but to no avail. “Great.” she sighed, flopping onto the stone ground. “No magic, no brothers… what else!?”
As soon as Heart’s rear made contact with the floor, the whole square of stone that she had landed on sunk into the floor. “Ok, what’s this?” She said, glancing back and forth at the ground. She let out a loud scream as the whole panel shot straight upward. The ceiling opened up to let it through.
Heart soon felt the floor stop moving and opened her eyes, finding herself in another room. She glanced around, finding that each wall had a hallway that looked exactly the same as the last.
“Oh, what fresh hell is this?” she groaned, hitting her hand on the stone floor. “I’ve had it with this shit! Silver was right. We should have went back to bed.”
She got up from off the floor and started walking to the right. She had been walking for a few minutes, but the scenery around her hadn’t changed whatsoever.
‘Ugggh…’ she sighed inwardly. ‘This is so boring! How could anypony remember where to go in this maze?!’ Finally, she saw an open door.
“Ah, finally!” sighed a relieved Heart. “Something new.”
She entered the doorway, only to see yet another corridor, this one only slightly brighter than the last..
“Oh, you have GOT to be kidding me!” yelled Heart. “Well, no harm in walking…”
She entered the new corridor and started walking down it. It only took a few more seconds for her to notice something else new. A door was open along the corridor. She sprinted towards it, hoping that this wasn’t another corridor. She peeked around the corner, but the room inside was completely dark.
“I’m not going in there.” said Heart wisely, walking past the door. Unfortunately, this disappointed somepony on the inside. Heart was levitated off her hooves.
“What? Let me go!” she yelled, trying and failing to escape.
She was pulled back into the dark room and the door slammed shut right behind her. She tried to move the door, but it remained immobile.
“Shit.” she sighed.
“Oh… you sound so cute when you swear.” came a voice from the darkness.
Heart screamed and whirled around. The magical torches had suddenly lit, throwing the room into focus. She was in another cell, this one much larger than the others. There was also a large, comfortable bed at the side. Along the walls were various items. Rope, whips and other assorted sexual toys and equipment. Heart’s eyes grew wide. Her eyes were drawn to the center of the room where Nightmare Moon was sitting on a table, looking at Heart lustfully.
“Nightmare Moon.” greeted Heart. “How nice to see you.”
Her eyes were raking hungrily up and down her appearance. “I thought Silver looked good, but you beat her by a mile, Heart. Oh yes, her stripes made her cute, but you… Mmmmmm… I could just start right now.”
Heart felt magic pull slightly at her t-shirt before it was released.
“On second thought… I’ll take it nice and slow. Not like Golden. You… I’ll savour every bite, just as I did Silver..”
Heart hoped against hope that Moon wasn’t actually going to eat her literally. “So… you’ve already done your worst to Gold, eh?” said Heart, trying to delay the inevitable.
“My worst?” she laughed. “She came nowhere close to ‘my worst’. Neither did Silver. What they got was tame and as a result, I wasn’t the most satisfied pony. You’re my last shot.” She gestured to the room. “You’re lucky you found this room. I had hoped one of you would pass and I was let down by the others. You’ve already pleased me greatly, Heart.”
Heart blushed, unsure whether to take that is compliment or not. “What exactly is this room?”
“This room was built solely for Celestia and Luna and their lust and liking for tying ponies up and having their way with them. However, this room was never used and they never got anypony in here. You’re the first, and I’m happy to say that I inherited Luna’s weird obsession. Lucky you, again.”
“Y-yeah! Lucky me.” nervously laughed Heart.
Moon slowly made her way over to Heart and started to rub herself up against her. “The others were fine on the bed, but I’m glad we could have some special time away from that comfy mattress. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it just as much as your sisters did though.”
“My sisters…” Heart looked confused and then her expression changed to one of complete horror. “You didn’t! They wouldn’t enjoy this!”
“Oh, I’ve always liked mares over stallions.” whispered Nightmare, grinding herself up against Heart. “They’re so much more gentle and delicate… and they have a lot more buttons to press.” She grabbed Heart’s ass slightly before continuing her rubbing. “Besides, your new sisters seemed to enjoy themselves.”
“Th- That’s a lie!”
“Oh? Tell me you’re not enjoying yourself right now.”
“I’m not!” said Heart all too quickly.
“Really?” Nightmare Moon sounded surprised. “Well, I better pick things up.”
One of her hands trailed to Heart’s covered breast, rubbing it slowly, while the other slowly trailed through Heart’s long silver mane.
Heart stifled a moan, but nothing hid from Nightmare Moon’s ears.
“You’re liking it now.” she smirked. “Oh, and your mane. Is it naturally silver? This looks so nice.” Her other hand left Heart’s breast and she started trailing her fingers through her silvery mane. Nightmare Moon started rubbing her face up against, feeling an intricate softness.
“Yes. It’s naturally silver.” replied Heart, surprisingly okay with having Nightmare touch her mane.
“I can tell that now, dear.” She continued to brush Heart’s mane. After a while, she got bored and she moved back around to Heart’s front.
“Miss me?” she said playfully before interlocking lips with Heart.
Heart tried to push Nightmare away, but she held on too strongly. After a few seconds, she resigned herself to fate and kissed Moon back. Before the kiss could even start on Heart’s end, Moon pulled away.
“Why’d you do that!” whined Heart, before realising what she said.
Nightmare Moon smiled. “That’s what I thought you would say.” she said before kissing her again. This time, Heart went on the offensive from the get go, pushing against Nightmare’s lips forcefully. Moon actually stumbled backwards due to her forcefulness. Suddenly, Heart pushed herself away from Moon and wiped her lips with a hand.
“You should know…” said Nightmare, teasingly. “Your sisters very much enjoyed my tongue… In other ways besides kissing.” She gestured simply towards Heart’s crotch.
“Y-You mean… I just kissed where you have…” Heart’s voice trailed away, not having the strength to finish the sentence.
“Don’t worry about it.” said Nightmare soothingly. “Just give up and enjoy it.”
“No… I’m not going to enjoy.”
“Awww!” pouted Nightmare Moon. “Still in denial? I can fix that.”
She resumed her kissing, grabbing Heart’s ass in the progress. Heart only mildly tried to fight back, enjoying her lips far too much. She found her own hand rubbing instinctively against Moon’s ass as well, which she seemed to enjoy very much. Moon pushed Heart back against the door, her tongue now invading the mare’s maw. Heart pulled away for a second, thinking.
“So… you weren’t really satisfied by the others?” she asked.
“Oh, I was satisfied by Silver. That little virgin was great fun, though I wasn’t rough with her. I didn’t have to be. Gold was fun too, but… I didn’t really enjoy myself on a second thought. I really hope you can bring me more satisfaction than the others.”
Heart didn’t know if she should just agree to help or not. Nightmare Moon had had over a thousand years without release, and she herself had been a mare for a matter of minutes and already she felt a hunger for satisfaction building.
“Well… I guess I could help you out…” Heart said nervously.
“Finally, somepony who will willingly help me!” Nightmare jammed her mouth back on Heart’s and continued her ministrations with her tongue. Heart grabbed Nightmare and whirled them both around, slamming the alicorn against the door and kissed her firmly on the mouth, allowing her tongue to slide in and play with Nightmare’s.
“You like it rough?” Nightmare purred as her lips separated from Heart’s after a few minutes before entangling their lips again. Moon’s hands started to squeeze Heart’s breasts as their kisses continued. Finally, they stopped and Heart was breathing heavily. Nightmare Moon was still rubbing Heart’s breasts, eliciting moans from the unicorn.
“Oh, let’s get this out of the way.” sighed Moon, ripping the shirt from Heart’s body with magic. With nothing else supporting them, Heart’s breasts spilled out into the open air. Moon’s eyes bulged out when she saw them. Her surprised look instantly changed into one full of lust.
“Mmmmm… they look good.” she moaned, rubbing her hands up against them, trailing her thumbs over the nipples.
Heart still couldn’t believe what she was agreeing to do. But her reasonable thoughts were discarded as pleasure rocketed through her. “Oh… that… feels so… good.” she moaned, grabbing Nightmare’s own breasts, which were still covered. The alicorn let out a surprised yelp and continued.
Heart grabbed the dress that Nightmare Moon was wearing and tore it off her in a surprising surge of sexual lust. Her feelings evaporated completely when she saw what Nightmare was hiding.
“You’re a futa?!” yelled Heart, backing away.
For once, Nightmare actually looked a little sad. “I’m just like Silver… a freak of nature. Unloved and cast out. Even Luna… she hates what happened to her body after we shared a single form. I made her a freak too.”
Heart actually felt sad for the alicorn. “Hey, you’re not a freak.” she said
“You… believe that?” she asked, surprised.
“You’re just different.” replied Heart. “Nopony really understands you, do they?”
She shook her head. Her horn glowed and the door behind Heart opened. “Go. Leave me be.”
Heart turned around, for a brief moment she considered leaving. She grabbed the door with a slender hand, and then closed it. She turned back to Nightmare Moon. “No.”
“What did you say?”
“No. I will not leave.”
Heart took advantage of the alicorn’s shock and planted soft kisses down her chest, grazing her soft breasts, giving them a soft, tantalising lick, causing Moon to moan in pleasure.
“Now, now.” she moaned. “I’m the dominating one here.” To prove her point, Moon grabbed Heart and threw her against the table she once sat on. Lifting Heart on top of the table, Nightmare straddled her and presented her tits to her.
“Lick. Now.” she demanded.
Heart obliged, the pain from the table’s edge still present. She trailed her tongue along the tips of Nightmare’s breasts, before sucking on them, enjoying herself.
“Stop.” commanded Nightmare.
Heart didn’t stop, too busy with her tongue to notice.
A whip cracked close to Heart, causing her mane to stand on end. She instantly stopped. Nightmare Moon laughed, a whip floating next to her.
“Good girl.” commended Nightmare. “Next time though, be a little quicker with my instruction. Otherwise…” The whip moved in a threatening manner.
“Okokokok!” Heart yelled.
Moon smiled down at the mare. “Now listen up, Platinum Heart.”
Heart shivered. She hated ponies who called her by her full name.
“You are going to do what I say, when I say, understand? Fail to do your job… and you’ll be receiving a lot more pain than pleasure. You got that, you little bitch?”
Heart opened her mouth to argue, but then closed it, and nodded.
“You’re learning quick. That’s good.” whispered Nightmare. “It will save us a lot of trouble. Now, if you would be so kind, please continue.”
Heart continued, more cautiously than before, slowly licking Moon’s nipple. She didn’t want that whip to come any closer to her.
“What’s the hold up, slave?” said Moon. “Go faster.”
Heart increased her pace, causing the alicorn above her to give a small moan.
“You’re being too soft, dear.” teased Nightmare Moon. “Why don’t you get a little rougher?”
Heart hated it, but she did as Nightmare said. She gripped Nightmare’s breast with her hands, and aggressively sucked on the tip, eliciting moans from Moon.
“Oh!” moaned Nightmare. “That feels so good.”
Nightmare moved her position slightly and Heart felt Moon’s length slid over her entrance. She gave a low moan and continued sucking Moon’s breast.
“Ok, that’s enough.” said Moon.
Heart quickly moved away from Nightmare Moon’s breast, not wanting to displease her. She glanced up at the whip, still hanging next to Moon and she blushed.
“Nervous about the whip?” asked Moon.
Heart nodded.
“Well, do whatever I say, and you’ll never feel its sharp sting. Now…” Moon moved herself up Heart body and presented her throbbing shaft to Heart, who’s eyes widened at the sight. “You know what to do.”
“N- No.” Heart said quietly.
Nightmare Moon’s eyes flashed dangerously. “What did you say?”
“I- I don’t want to.” whispered Heart in a barely audible voice.
Instantly, rope lashed itself around Heart’s arms, tying them securely behind her. Heart whimpered and struggled against the bonds.
“That’s your first chance gone.” stated Moon, frowning. “Usually, I wouldn’t give anypony this amount of disobedience without disciplining them.” She cracked the whip, causing Heart to cower in fear. “But, since you agreed to help me which the others had failed to do, and given the fact that you are such a cute, unbelievably hot mare,” She accentuated these last four words with a lick of her lips. “I’ll let you off. Be warned though… if you disobey me again, I won’t be so lenient. So… please continue.”
But Heart didn’t part her lips to allow Nightmare’s shaft entrance into her mouth. She didn’t want to feel what it was like. Nightmare Moon just shook her head and sighed.
“And to think you would be the only one to help me.” Her horn glowed and Heart’s legs were tied together tightly. “Because I’m such a delight, I gave you another chance. Be warned, this is the last time I will do so.” Her expression softened. “Look, Heart, I know that this is weird for you…”
‘That’s an understatement.’ thought Heart darkly.
“But all I want is just my release, my satisfaction… something that has been denied from me for so long. You, of all ponies, should be able to understand that. Now, if you please.”
Heart partly felt sympathetic towards the futa alicorn, but the only reason she wanted to continue was because of that whip. Heart slowly moved her head close to Nightmare Moon’s length and slowly licked the tip of it, causing Moon to quiver.
“Mmmm…” she moaned. “Give it all you’ve got.”
Heart slowly trailed her tongue down Moon’s length, reaching the base of it and moving back up just as slow, flicking her tongue over the tip lightly. After a while of moving backwards and forwards, getting her tongue in every place she could reach, she tasted Moon’s pre. Heart lapped it up experimentally, and found that the taste was quite to her liking.
“Now it’s time to take it all.” whispered Moon into Heart’s ear.
Heart nodded and slowly, tantalizingly, slid her mouth over the tip and started to suck it strongly. Nightmare Moon grabbed Heart’s long silver hair and pulled it tightly, causing Heart to have the entire length in her mouth in one move.
“Don’t move.” commanded Nightmare lightly.
Nightmare’s cock had moved straight to the back of Heart’s throat, completely cutting off her air supply. Heart started to choke.
“Enjoy it.” whispered Moon erotically.
Heart kept the massive length in her mouth as it continued to slowly choke the mare. Just when she thought she was going to pass out, Nightmare slid it out of her mouth. Heart gasped for air, but she only took one breath before Moon jammed her cock straight back in. She grabbed the back of Heart’s head and vigorously pulled her head straight to her hilt. To add to the rough style, Nightmare thrust her hips forward, getting her length to go as deep as it could with every pull and thrust.
Heart whimpered as she felt Nightmare’s head hit the back of her throat over and over, destroying her pride further with every thrust and choking her every time she hilted. The table shook as Moon increased her furiosity.
Nightmare Moon was enjoying herself immensely. She had, in front of her, a mare who had finally agreed to help. What’s better, she was like Silver and Gold, wrapped into one. Silver’s youth and utter adorableness mixed with Gold’s strength. ‘Plus, I can make her do whatever I want and deny her everything!’ she thought to herself evilly.
Heart wasn’t sure if she should be enjoying herself or not. She had agreed to help, she even closed a door to freedom. Even so, this didn’t feel right at all. She wanted some freedom, some for pleasure herself, but if she opened her mouth… that whip… Heart shuddered and moaned for pleasure of the one above her.
Heart felt Moon go rigid and she braced herself for the alicorn’s release. Moon moaned very loudly as she shot her seed down Heart’s throat. Heart spluttered slightly, unable to swallow the massive amount of hot, sticky cum. It dripped out her mouth and splattered her body. Heart thought Nightmare would finally pull out, but to her dismay, Moon continued to thrust, a lot slower than before. Her softened cock continued to violate Heart’s mouth, and Heart, starting to get used to it, licked around the shaft, coated with saliva and cum, as it continued to penetrate into her maw.
Nightmare Moon was in ecstasy. The others hadn’t pleased her this well, this quickly. She yearned for another release, so she picked up the pace, sliding the hardening shaft faster into Heart’s mouth, once again hitting the back of her throat.
Heart felt Moon’s length harden again in her mouth and she groaned as she felt it hit the back of her throat repeatedly. After a few more minutes of violent, rough oral, Nightmare Moon felt ready for release once more. She again moaned loudly and shot her load into Heart’s maw. Before she had finished, she pulled her cock out of Heart’s mouth and finished by unleashing the rest of her load over Heart’s body.
Heart shivered slightly as the alicorn’s seed covered her body. Hot and sticky, it dripped down her face, catching at the corners of her mouth. Nightmare Moon shook, almost collapsing, but managing to keep herself upright as the last waves of her orgasm left her. She bent down and slowly licked the cum from Heart’s breasts.
“Wow… that… was… amazing.” breathed Nightmare Moon. “Now… if you don’t mind, I’m gonna take a long nap.” She clambered off of Heart and slowly made her way over to the bed.
“But-” started Heart. “You- you haven’t even started on me yet! You’ve only pleased yourself!”
Nightmare whipped around, her mane crackling with electricity.
Heart gulped.
“Are you questioning your master?” she yelled, striding back over to Heart and slapping her hard in the face. “If she wants to take a break… she takes a break! Understood?!”
“Yes, Nightmare.” quivered Heart.
“I don’t think you do understand at all. I guess I have to… MAKE you understand.”
“No… please.” whimpered Heart, her old pride and strength completely forgotten.
Nightmare Moon just laughed, levitating the whip that had fallen to the ground. Heart’s rope bonds fell away as she was shackled strongly to the table by Moon. Nightmare raised the whip and slashed it across Heart’s stomach.
Heart screamed. The pain was unbearable. It was like having a hot metal rod branding itself across her stomach. A wide wound opened up slightly, blood dripping from it. Heart broke down into sobs, tears streaming from her eyes.
“F-f-fuck you, Moon.” Heart sobbed.
“Awww! That isn’t very nice!” Nightmare pouted. “However, you look so cute when you swear. It just gives me the chills.”
She raised the whip, this time bringing it down on Heart’s leg. Heart screamed again, struggling against her bonds.
“Do… you… understand?” asked Nightmare Moon, each time the whip hit Heart’s flesh.
Heart couldn’t answer through both tears and pain. She tried to move her head, but her body had seized up as she was tormented.
“Answer!” yelled Moon, lashing Heart again, this time across her breasts..
Heart managed to swallow some sobs. “Y-Yes, master.” she choked out.
Nightmare Moon smiled. “Good. Now, as I said before, I’m going to rest up for a while. You don’t mind, do you?”
“N-no.”
“Then, I’ll see you in a while, Platinum Heart.”
With those words, she crashed onto the bed and drifted off to sleep. Heart’s mind was racing. Her old self, her old identity, had just gone with a few whip strokes. She felt no desire to fight anymore. Fighting equals pain, and she didn’t want to displease her master, did she?
Moon woke up a few hours later. By that time, Heart’s wounds had closed over, scabs forming over them and the drenching from Nightmare Moon’s member she received had all but dried up. The blood that had seeped from her body has dried as well, staining her black coat with a deep red. Heart didn’t sleep at all within those few hours, not wanting to wake up and find Moon holding the whip, waiting for her.
Nightmare Moon slowly walked over to Heart, trailing a single finger down Heart’s body. “How is my little slave?”
“Just fine.” replied Heart.
“You know, I’ve thought about what you said. That ‘I’ve only pleasured myself.’ I have to say that’s true. But, if you want me to start on you, all you have to do is ask, maybe even beg. It’s that simple, right?”
Heart nodded then opened her mouth and spoke in a quiet voice. “Could you please… start on me?”
“Why of course. I hate to leave somepony like you unsatisfied.” She then leaned closer to Heart. “You sound just like your little sister.”
The shackles over Heart’s hooves disappeared, letting Moon spread her legs open. She slowly removed the shorts that had been stained by blood and seed, revealing Heart’s marehood. She licked her lips at the sight of the mare’s tight slit.
Platinum watched as Moon grew hard again at the from just looking. She shivered at the thought of that being inside of her.
“You look… Delicious…” Moon said with a lusty pur.
Heart blushed, but stayed quiet, gazing down between her legs at Moon.
“You know… A thank you would be nice.”
“T-thank you, master…” stammered Heart, her blush deepening slightly.
Moon smiled. “That’s a good girl.” She said as she moved her snout slowly, teasingly slowly towards Heart’s needy snatch. She never took her eyes away from the mare’s. Her eyes told everything. Heart’s arousal, her need, her fear. It made Moon shiver with excitement.
Finally coming face to face with Heart’s dripping cunt, she leaned forward and nuzzled against her tender lips, trying to tease more of the sweet nectar out of her.
Heart arched her back from Moon’s touch. “Please… don’t stop, master.”
Moon slowly trailed her tongue up Heart’s wet lips, tasting her. Heart quivered and moaned slightly as Moon’s tongue slowly licked her new sex. “T-that feels so good, master.” moaned Heart.
“I haven’t even started yet.” said Moon sexily, probing Heart with her tongue. Heart moaned louder, trying to entice Moon to go faster. Nightmare only went slower, much to displeasure of Heart. Moon made up for this by circling her tongue around Heart’s moist lips, getting ever closer to her clit, but always pulling away at the last second. Aroused juices spilled from Heart, and Nightmare lapped it up, liking the taste.
“P- Please, master.” begged Heart. “S- Stop teasing m- me.”
“But master hasn’t had her fun yet.” replied Moon, continuing to deny Heart satisfaction.
Heart would have done something to try and get the alicorn to give her the release she had earned, if it wasn’t for the fact that her hands were still shackled above her head and a whip still floated next to her. She was utterly helpless to Moon’s teasing.
“Please! I’m b-begging you, master! I’ll be a g-good g-girl, I promise! Just p-please!” She cried in her helplessness.
Moon looked up at Heart’s large, green, pleading eyes. “Oh, I guess master could be a little more fun.” she said, licking Heart’s clit slowly.
Heart stiffened and moaned loudly at the slow, gentle contact, sending waves of relief and pleasure through her body.
Moon stopped suddenly, making Heart whine. “Where’s my thank you?”
She had to force her voice to work properly before she could answer. “T-t-thank you, master.”
“Good girl.” purred Moon, moving her head back in close to Heart’s slit and continuing to lap at her sensitive folds. She slowly dug her tongue into Heart’s folds, flicking her tongue on Heart’s insides.
“Ahhhh!” Heart yelled. “Yes, that’s it master!” her whole body writhed in the ecstasy she felt from the alicorn’s skilled tongue.
Nightmare dug deeper, swirling her tongue as not to miss a single spot. She moaned at the mare’s flavor as she swallowed every bit of her arousal that leaked onto her tongue.
Heart’s moans began to grow louder until she was nearly screaming, showing how much she was enjoying this.
Moon felt Heart tense slightly, a clear indicator of how close she was and, even though she wanted to taste Platinum’s cum, stopped licking and pulled away.
“Ok, that’s enough.” she said teasingly.
“D-doesn’t master want to see me cum?” whined Heart.
“Oh, she does. She just wants to play a little game.”
She released Heart from her shackles. “On your hands and knees, ass up, now.” she commanded.
“Yes, master.” Heart turned over and presented her ass to Moon, flicking it aside her tail allowing Moon to see both holes. Nightmare lined up her throbbing member with Heart’s marehood. She had an evil idea, perfect timing now that Heart was almost ready for release.
“Here’s what master is thinking, slave. You’re not allowed to cum until I say, understood?”
“Y-yes, master.”
“And master is going to whip you before we start, is that okay?”
“Y-yes.”
Moon was amazed, both at how Heart just accepted it, and both lucky she was. ‘I have my own little slave… oh, she’s going to be fun later.’ thought Moon, raising the whip.
Moon lashed Heart across the back with the whip, drawing a fresh wound into the mare’s back. Heart moaned and withheld a scream, her pussy dripping fresh juice from the rough contact.
“P-please, master. D-do it again.”
Moon obliged, hitting the mare harder this time.
This time, Heart screamed. “T-thank you, master!”
“I hope your ready, slave. Remember, you can’t cum until I say.”
“I’m ready, master. Take as long as you want.”
‘Oh, yes… I certainly will.’ Moon thought.
She rubbed her shaft up against Heart’s slit, eliciting a loud moan from the mare. Heart was almost ready to experience her first orgasm as a mare, due to Moon’s ministrations with her tongue earlier. But now, she held it in, not wanting to disobey her master’s orders.
Moon, determined to make Heart cum, forcefully jammed her cock into Heart’s folds. Either fortunately, or unfortunately, her member failed to go in the whole way on her first try, due to a combination of the mare’s tightness, and the sheer size of Nightmare’s shaft. Even so, the roughness of it all sent Heart into pleasure she had only ever heard about.
“Oh f- fuck!” Heart moaned, pushing herself onto Moon’s sex.
Nightmare grabbed Heart’s ass and started to force herself in the whole way. It was tough work, given that Heart’s inner walls had constricted over her cock, but, Moon reminded herself, if she remains like this, it should be easy to get her to cum.
Nightmare finally hilted herself inside Heart, but the mare refused to give. Nightmare wrapped her hand around Heart’s long silver tail and pulled hard. She yelped, and Moon felt her walls constrict even more, but no release yet. Moon smiled and started to thrust deep into Heart, pushing her shaft roughly past her walls, hilting herself each time she thrust.
Heart was in agony. Pleasurable agony. Holding in her orgasm was torture. Even more than getting lashed by the whip. It was like seeing the thing you always wanted, held right in front of you, being offered to take it, but instead, you walk away. She felt her body screaming for release, begging to put out of it’s misery, but Heart refused.
The rough sex was making Moon wanting release as well, but she too, refused to give up. Not until she had made her little slave cum. She withdrew her cock from Heart and thought for a second.
“Oh… m-master…” panted Heart.
“Master did this little spell to Golden, but she didn’t seem to like it. I hope that you have different thoughts about it.” she said quietly.
Nightmare Moon’s horn glowed and Heart screamed. Pain shot through her body and she writhed in Moon’s spell. After a minute or so, she released the spell, causing Heart to flop back down. Moon smiled. Heart’s concentration would have been destroyed by that. Moon had won.
Or so she thought. Heart giggled slightly. “Master… that… felt… fucking... wonderful… Th- Thank you.” Her pussy, while still dripping wet, had not experienced orgasm.
Moon was getting pissed. “What the fuck?!” she yelled inwardly. “Gold and Silver would have failed long ago! Why is she still putting up resistance? The little BITCH!”
She plunged her member back in Heart and grabbed her hair tightly.
“Ok, Heart.” she growled. “I’m not holding back any longer.”
“That’s… great… master.” panted Heart. “I… was… waiting… for you… to say… that.”
Moon levitated a massive dildo from off the walls, the longest one there, just longer than Moon’s own member, and inserted it into Heart’s ass. Using her magic, she timed each complete insertion of the massive phallic object with her own shaft each time it hilted. At the same time, she roughly started rubbing Heart’s clit, determined to win. To add to all of this, she slapped Heart’s ass powerfully.
Heart shook uncontrollably, but this new stimulation was just another challenge master set her. And she was determined to succeed. She was in pain from holding herself in for so long, but she managed to stop herself, just teetering on the edge of orgasm.
After a while of thrusting, rubbing, slapping and violating, Moon felt her own orgasm come at her from out of nowhere.
‘No! I have to win! I can’t-’ she thought.
It was too late. Moon finally came inside the mare, her head flaring deep inside of her, the white substance shooting into her womb, splashing against her deepest parts. Filled to the brim, it leaked out all over Nightmare’s member, her fingers, and the table.
“Ok, Heart.” said Moon resignedly, her cum coated member still inside her. “You can cum now.”
There was a brief pause as Moon tweaked the mare’s clit again, then Heart screamed and finally, she experience her first orgasm as a mare. Her juices spilled past Moon’s cock and pooled with Nightmare’s own juices. The massive build-up she had forced herself to hold back, finally released. After a few minutes, she finally stopped and collapsed on the table, breathing hard, almost unconscious from the experience.
“That… was… amazing… master…” breathed Heart.
“How did you… keep yourself... from ending it… Heart?” asked Moon, also panting but not as hard.
“Because… master… told… me… not to.” breathed Heart, slipping into unconsciousness for a second before snapping back to life. “I… won’t… disobey… master.”
“Well, master is going… for another rest… now.” said Moon. “You may… rest, Heart. You’ve… pleased me in… ways the others couldn’t.”
Moon got off of the mare and staggered over to the bed. Before she could collapse on top of it, Heart spoke up.
“Master?”
Nightmare turned around. “Yes?”
“Thank… you.” she said, before passing out completely.
Nightmare Moon smiled. “You naughty little slave.”

//-------------------------------------------------------//
Sorrow of the Moon
Silver, a young zebracorn, sat in the corner with her knees hugged against her chest, tears streaming down her cheeks as the memories of what Moon had done to her flooded her mind. The mare had woken not long after Platinum Heart, her older sister, had been tossed into the cell that was oddly filled with luxuries, obviously intended for the three sisters.
‘I don’t know who I am anymore… What has Nightmare done to me? What did she do to me to make me want and enjoy the things she did? She took my virginity… Forced me to suck her off…’ Silver’s thoughts ran through her mind like a jumbled freight yard during rush hour. ‘But… I… I enjoyed it… What is wrong with me!?’ She looked from under her hands at her unconscious sisters, both defiled as much, if not worse, than she had been. She hugged her knees closer to her body and cried softly. “I want to go home…”
Gold woke to the sound of Silver’s weak, pleading voice. The mare’s whimpers sounded unbearably painful in the ears of the pegasus, making her sympathetic nature kick in. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up from the soft futon she had been lied across to the crying zebra. Her eyes widened. “S-Silver…” Gold said as she got up off the bed and walked over to where her sister sat, sitting down in front of Silver and pulling her into a hug.
“Gold?” Silver whimpered softly as she wrapped her arms around her sister. “I-I’m losing my *hick* mind! I want to go home! I want to forget this ever happened!”
“I know Silver, I know. We’ll be going home soon, and when we get there, we can forget all about this.” Gold said in a hushed tone as she held her sister close.
Silver squeezed Gold tighter. “H-how can you be so sure? You’re always so optimistic. Mother! What hell have you put us through!?” She wailed as more tears spilled out of her eyes, this time soaking into Gold’s fur.
“I know you may not have thought me to be the type of pony to say this, Silver, but for once, I wish we had just gone back to bed.” Gold stated as she comforted her sister. She pulled back to gaze into her little sister’s eyes.
“But… Mother forced us… This is all her fault! I lost my virginity to Nightmare Moon because of her! We’re trapped here because of her! We’re all mares… Because… Of… Her!” Silver yelled, only to receive a hard backhand across the snout from Gold, snapping her head to her left. She blinked, wondering for a moment why she was looking at the wall, until her jaw began to ache, telling her exactly that Golden had struck her.
“Snap the fuck out of it, Silver!” Gold reprimanded. “I know that we had no choice but mother is not to blame for this, no pony is to blame for this except Nightmare Moon and I swear that we will make her pay for this.”
Silver took a moment to let her brain reboot, before looking back at Gold, tears still fresh in her eyes. “I’m sorry… I didn’t know what I was saying… And my… ahem… Aching crotch might have played a role in that too…”
“Let me tell you something that I know I promised myself I would never tell anypony…” Gold said as she began feeling tears welling up from the memory of how she lost her virginity as a young stallion. “I-I had it much worse when I lost my virginity… I was seventeen, younger than you are now. I was just coming home from visiting a friend and they just… They…” Gold couldn’t continue as she was so torn up from remembering that nothing more than sobs could be heard
Silver pushed herself up from her place in the corner and hugged her older sister. “They hurt you didn’t they?”
Gold could only nod before burying her face into Silver’s shoulder.
“How many were there?”
“T-two, t-there were two.” Gold choked out.
Silver nearly kicked herself over her next question. “Were they… Stallions?”
“O-one of them… was a m-mare.” Gold replied breaking back into tears.
“Oh Gold… Why didn’t you ever tell us? Mother would have put them to death for that… They raped a prince… A son of Celestia, no less.”
Meanwhile, somewhere in Ponyville, a certain pink mare was fuming after her pinkie sense told her that Golden Eye broke a promise.
Back in the cell, a random rock smacked Gold in the side of the head and rolled to a stop next to Silver, who looked down at it. The small stone read ‘PROMISE BREAKERS WILL PAY!’ in red letters. “That’s not going to end well…”
“I’m sorry Pinkie, but I couldn’t keep it hidden any longer.” Gold said to no pony in particular.
“For a pony without magic… She sure out does Heart when it comes to teleportation.”
“We’ll never know how she does it either.”
“Ten bits says she’ll teach her offspring how.” Silver said, attempting to lighten the mood.
“Don’t worry about the ten bits, I think she might teach her offspring how anyway.” Gold deadpanned.
“I’m guessing she’ll have to. After all, there’s the fact that her foal will grow up to be the new element of laughter.” Silver replied with a shrug, seeming to have gone back to her usual self.
“But, Silver…” Gold said, bringing the mentioned mare back to the subject at hand. “You are the first pony I have ever spoken to about me being raped and the reason I held it back for so long is because I was afraid.” She explained.
“You all saved my life… From my own action. There’s not much you can tell me that I’ll judge you for. My real mother didn’t love me, I tried to kill myself, I’m a frequent drinker, and my first time was as a mare. So long as you don’t freak out like I just did, you’ll be just fine.” Silver comforted her sister.
“The worst I ever did was avoid everypony afterward. I was like that for a year and a half.”
“That’s why you avoided me!? I thought you were like everypony else and shunned me for what I am, even though you said all those nice things to me when I was healing. By Mother, I’m so sorry! That’s the sole reason I was always so sour towards you! I’m so so so so sorry, Gold!” Silver cried and hugged Golden again.
“These memories are the reason why I have my own stash in my room and yes, Mother knows about it.” Gold said embracing her sister.
“You never told her who did it?”
“No, I was so afraid that they would do much worse if they had a chance when they found out.”
Silver narrowed her eyes. “Who were they, Gold?”
“I never heard their names but the stallion’s coat was a light blue with an ash grey mane and tail… that’s all I remember.”
The zebra’s eyes widened. “I know him… He’s… H-he’s a royal guard…”
“How can you be so sure?” Gold questioned.
“He’s… My personal guard…” Silver said in a quiet tone, only loud enough for Gold to hear.
“Y-your personal guard, but he’s…” Gold said.
“His name is Broadsword. Mother said he was the best guard of his rank to guard me while in Canterlot. I had no idea I was being constantly watched by a pedophile and rapist.” She replied with a violent shiver. “To think… He may have been checking me out the whole time…”
“I’m glad you didn’t go through the same thing I did when it happened.”
Silver shook her head in disgust. “Yet, I was in a situation where it could have. I’m actually suddenly relieved that Moon got my virginity first… at least she had the decency to turn me into a mare first and actually gave me enjoyment out of it.”
“These memories flashed through my mind when Moon first said that she wanted us, which is why I acted the way I did towards her before all of this.”
While the two sisters talked, neither of them noticed that Heart was awake, much less did they realize she had been awake almost the entire conversation. She was still lying on the floor, faced away from the others. She winced slightly as the injuries from Nightmare Moon's whip were still present. She hadn't known of Gold's secret, and hearing her confess made a few tears run down her face. A whimper broke past, even though she tried to hide her quiet crying.
Silver’s ear perked up. She slowly turned to look back at the middle sibling. “Heart?” She asked in a near whisper. “How much did you hear?”
Heart got up off the floor and turned to face her sisters, throwing her injuries into sharp focus, making both the other mares gasp. "Almost all of it. Gold..." Her face turned sorrowful and she trailed off.
“Say it, Heart, let it out.”
"H-How could you not tell us?" Heart's voice sounded betrayed, broken.
“Heart, don’t say anything you’ll regret… I’ve already gone there. Mother will not be pleased when my voice reaches her all hearing ears.” Silver spoke, attempting to defend her sister.
“I… I was just so afraid to say anything to anypony that I refused to speak about it... until now.” Tears again ran down Gold’s cheeks as she spoke. “Please… forgive me for not telling you sooner.”
Heart unclenched her fist and sighed. "I'm sorry, Gold... I know it must have been difficult for you to say this." She walked over to her sisters and sat down next to them.
“So yes, Heart… You literally are the one who keeps us all sane in the aftermath of our tragedies… and now we all get to share one of our own.” Silver said with a weak chuckle.
Heart laughed lightly, then twitched as pain flared from the injuries around her stomach. She brought a hand up and lightly touched it.
Silver winced at the several gashes across Heart’s body. “Don’t tell me you enjoyed that, did you Heart?”
"Well... not at first... But master had to teach me a lesson."
“Dear mother, what has she done to you, Heart? This is more than a lesson being taught and why the hell would you call her master!?” Gold said, nearly shouting, tears of frustration now falling past her cheeks.
Silver’s jaw dropped. “Well... it would seem that our dear sister has a new fetish.” She said, taking this surprisingly well. “She really broke you in like a new pair of horse shoes. Dammit, Moon. You done ruined my sister.”
“Damn you Moon… I’m gonna fucking kill her when this is over!” Gold shouted as she stood, turning to the wall to slam her fist into the stone, cracking it.
Silver stiffened. “Whoa! Nopony said anything about killing! Sure, the way she went about things was wrong, but before we go jumping to conclusions, we need to get to the bottom of what really caused her to do this.” Her voice was overlayed with sympathy that she didn’t even mean to have. It was just there, probably from the fact that she could relate to the alicorn. They were both freaks of nature after all.
“With what she did to our sister… she deserves nothing more than what she should have gotten a long time ago.”
“Listen to yourself! Did we not just go through an entire conversation about our flaws!? Moon told me herself that what she did so long ago was irrational! She’s lonely, because she’s treated like I used to be and only sought to bring eternal night because of how hurt Luna was when the ponies feared and disrespected her night!” Silver snapped, shocking both of the other mares. “Now unless you have a better idea of how to get out of this mess alive, I suggest you get your anger in check!”
Realizing that she had lost control of her anger, Gold tried to reign herself back in and calm herself down what little bit she could. “I’m sorry, I was just… so angry that I let it get the better of me.”
Silver turned back to Heart. “Now… Heart, you really enjoyed the painful things Moon did to you? What all did she do? Please not in detail. I’d like to keep what little I have on my stomach.”
"I- I didn't listen to her... And she punished me because of that." said Heart, her voice breaking slightly.
Silver slid off of the bed, stumbling slightly, her legs still weak from the rutting she had received, and sat down on her knees next to Heart. She wrapped her arms around the mare and hugged her. “Its OK… Least you didn’t have a virginity for her to take. But from how you had said ‘punished’ earlier made it sound like a good thing.”
Gold stood and walked away from her sisters, into the darkest corner she could find. She pushed her back against the wall and slid to the floor, saying nothing.
“I-It was a good thing. I-It made Nightmare Moon happy… and I’m glad that I made her happy.” said Heart, her voice quavering slightly.
“Did YOU enjoy it though? That’s all I’m asking, is if you found the way Moon treated you was pleasurable.”
“I l-liked it.”
“That’s a start. Maybe we could figure out how to persuade Moon to let us go… So far all we have that she really wants is our bodies, but I for one quite enjoy freedom. We’ll need to think this through very carefully. We’ll have to use our new bodies to our advantage.” Silver explained. She then turned to Gold. “Gold. We’re not going to be stuck here as slaves, no matter how much one of us may like it. But we’re going to need a plan of action, since I nor Heart have our magic. We’ll need your natural forwardness to get things started.”
“What good would my forwardness do besides get us tied further into the mess we are already in?” Gold huffed.
“We need to get her emotions to boil. You’re familiar with psychological warfare, right?” The zebra replied.
“Then why am I the complete emotional mess right now?”
“Your passive aggressive personality is perfect for this, plus Moon makes me shy, and Heart likes to be punished anyway. She wouldn’t be the one to talk back. I told you, ruffle her feathers a little. The real emotions will come from me.” Silver explained. “I want to make her regret what she did by not even laying a finger on her… Then bring her back up to respect us as equals.” Silver then shook her head violently. “Woah… Where the hell did that plan come from?”
“I need time to think this over.” Gold stated
At that moment, a knock sounded at the door of the cell and Nightmare Moon’s voice call from the other side. “Girls. You awake?”
Silver froze. “We might not have that kind of time.”
“Alright, I’ll do it, but don’t blame me if it fails.” Gold monotoned as she stood and joined her sisters.
“I wonder what mast-” Heart shook herself violently, trying to drop what Nightmare Moon embedded into her mind. “what Moon is going to do to us now…”
“Remember Gold, just play it cool until she says something about last night. Then let her have a piece of your mind. We’ll play it off and pull you away, before she gets pissed then when she’s about to strike you, I’ll come in.” Silver whispered.
“Girls?” Nightmare’s voice came again.
“Uhh… yeah, we were just waking up.” Gold called out.
Moon opened the door and walked inside with a wide smile on her face. She wore the same armor as before, but a different dress was attached to skimpy armor. “Oh excellent! So how are my sweet princesses?”
Silver blushed and looked away. “G-good… I guess…”
“Kinda freezing, but I’m okay.” Gold replied.
“I’m fine m-master.” said Heart, blushing like Silver.
The alicorn smiled at Heart. “You really do like calling me that, don’t you?”
Heart blushed more deeply but said nothing.
“Now,” Moon clapped her hands together. “How’s about I treat you three to a little something to eat?”
Silver mentally reeled in shock, not expecting the sudden kindness that utterly destroyed her plan. ‘Nononononono! That’s not right! She’s acting different!’
“It depends on what you’re offering, and if it’s just a lure to getting what you want.” Gold said as she looked from the corner of her eye at Silver with a look saying ‘I got this.’
Moon pouted. “What kind of heartless bitch do you think I am that I wouldn’t treat my three mares to a nice breakfast that, mind you, I cooked myself.”
“One that fucks three siblings without permission! We might have acted differently had you just asked nicely.” Gold retorted.
“You really don’t understand what was going through your own minds as soon as you laid your eyes on me, do you?” Nightmare shot back.
“I may not have known exactly what was going through my mind, but as far as I am concerned, neither do you.”
The alicorn narrowed her eyes. “Let me give you a little insight. Two thousand years is more than enough time to understand every dark corner of ones mind, where as it took me a mere few seconds to figure out exactly what it was you three wanted to do to me, even what you want to do to me now. Here I am, being my true, calm self and you insult me while I’m offering you a meal. I’m honestly hurt, Gold.”
Silver made a move to get up, but was stopped by Moon’s magic.
“No, Silver. I knew she was going to say this to me even if you hadn’t come up with your plan that might have worked if I couldn’t read emotions.”
“Now let me ask you this, Moon. Why, if you were so desperate, didn’t you just ask us nicely instead of taunting us and irritating the hell out of us when we showed up?”
“The same reasons as Discord would. I find teasing to be fun, though nopony seems to like it when I do. I saw you all doing just that to each other. Me, being socially deprived, thought you find it fun.” She replied with a sharp tone.
Gold curled her hand into a fist. “Now what the hell do you think when you hear that somepony such as myself was raped by a royal guard, and that same pony has been watching your youngest sibling, what if you had a younger brother or sister that was being followed by the same pony that raped you?”
That caught Moon off guard, literally making her look like Gold had slapped her. “You… Celestia’s royal… Silver… Oh, Gods…” Her eyes widened at what she realized she had done. In that very moment, she looked like Luna, her personality swapping almost as fast as Rainbow Dash can fly. She covered her mouth with her hands and slowly backed away. “I… I didn’t know… I didn’t…”
Silver was released from Moon’s magic, allowing her to stand. “You took my virginity as well. What if I had somepony I was saving it for? Do you pride yourself in stealing? Were you just so desperate that you stole all three of us and couldn’t even come to our mother to right your wrongs? If you did things the right way, this may have turned out a lot better than this. You degraded us and now you’re acting all nice like we’re all friends. You even broke Heart! You made her into your little bitch slave! What the fuck is wrong with you!?” She screamed. “You took our magic, innocence, pride, and most of all, all three of us! You just fucking took us like possessions!”
“I… I thought you all enjoyed it! You even begged for me to keep going!” Moon cried. Her lonesome emotions were boiling past her pride and seeping to the surface in the form of tears in her eyes. “And… I do know what its like to have a little sister… But I wasn’t the one raped… She was… I couldn’t get to her in time and when I did… The bastard had killed her… So I ripped him apart. I was never right since.”
Gold’s eyes widened, “I-I… I’m so sorry for your loss.”
Moon bared her fangs. “Don’t be. Just fucking leave. This is the last time I ever try to find somepony special.”
“No.” Gold replied “I won’t let you be left here like this.”
Silver had to shake all the confusion out of her head, before she could speak. “Y-yeah.”
“I won’t let you suffer from your past, if you come with us, we can help you come to terms with our mother and right your wrongs.” Gold said .
Moon’s sniffled. “Really?”
“Does it look like I’m lying?”
“I don’t know… What does the face of a liar look like?” She teased, making Silver chuckle.
“Does this tell you anything?” Gold asked as she pulled Moon close and planted a kiss on her lips.
The alicorn’s eyes widened at the random show of affection, wings stiffening in surprise. To say that she didn’t enjoy it would be like saying the sun is freezing. Her eyes slowly fluttered shut as she relaxed and delivered the kiss back.
Silver Soul strode around behind Moon and began massaging at her wings, making the black mare moan softly.
Heart paused for a second, before walking close to Nightmare, slowly removing the alicorn’s armor and only leaving her in her deep blue dress.
Gold broke the kiss to regain her breath. "Does any of this... tell you that I... was telling the… truth about helping you... come to better terms with... our mother and... righting your wrongs?" she said between deep breaths.
Tears spilled from Moon’s eyes and slid down her cheeks at those words. She tried to respond, but nothing came out of her mouth when she opened it to speak.
“That sounded like it was pretty easy for you to say, dear sister.” Silver giggled. “I think somepony needs to earn our affection… So… How’s about that breakfast?” She asked as she wrapped her arms around Nightmare from behind, nuzzling into her stiff wings.
“Sure… ahem… Y-yes, Its being kept warm in the dining hall.”
There was a clatter as Nightmare Moon's armor fell to the ground. "Lead the way." said Heart, winking at the alicorn.
“Ummm… I would if you girls would let go…” Moon said sheepishly.
Silver giggled and let go, followed by Gold. “Sorry.” The zebra apologized with a slight blush.
The alicorn just smiled, before walking out.
Gold turned to her youngest sister, "Hey, Silver, I don't know if you feel the same but I think I'm falling in love with her, what should I do? And if I do love her, how am I going to tell her?" she asked, a nervous look in her eyes.
It was Heart, not Silver, who answered Gold's question. "Let's see how this turns out before we do anything we might regret."
"I know it's just that... The way I acted when she told us to leave..." Gold said.
"We all felt sorry for her... You just... started it with her." said Heart, blushing slightly.
"It's not that..." Gold explained. "I felt something deeper... Like something inside me tells me that the way she has to contend with loneliness isn't something she should have to suffer, like she needs some pony to love her and I just feel... Well... Drawn to her somehow."
“You feel the same about her as you both did me that day.” Silver said as she looked out the open door, seeing Nightmare walking away.
"It’s not that… It’s… I can’t explain it. I… My feelings are at a turmoil and I can’t sort them out!”
“Look, Gold… No matter how you try to dress it up, you still know just as much as I do that all four of us, especially Moon, have similar faults.” Silver stated. “And knowing you… You won’t truly forgive yourself if you made somepony miserable and lonely.”
Moon poked her head back through the doorway and looked between the three mares. “Are you three coming?”
"Yes, Nightmare. We're coming." said Heart. When Moon had left she lowered her voice. "Look, we can figure all this out soon. Let's just get some food and get our thoughts straight."
“Yeah, I am a bit hungry so let’s just go eat and get our thoughts together.” Gold replied, concern for her feelings towards Moon still showing in her expression.
Heart noticed and placed a hand on her shoulder. "I understand what you are feeling, Gold." She pointed at her heart shaped cutie mark. "I should know."
“No… you don’t… Nopony understands what I am going through.” Gold protested “I love Moon, can’t you see? I just… don’t know how to tell her, besides how do I know if she’ll love me the same way?”
“You can’t just all out love her, Gold. There needs to be reasoning behind it, other than that she knows how we all feel.” Silver interjected.
“She doesn’t need to be alone for the rest of her life unloved.”
“But neither should that mean that we should be the ones to be with her. As I said, she needs to win my affection. If you’re ever going to listen to me, Gold, now may be the time to do it.” The young mare replied with a shake of her head.
“Do you want to know why I was so heartbroken over the mares that I was with before all of this?” Gold asked.
“I can’t say that I do.”
“I don’t think you want to listen to what I have to say, so why are we talking about this anymore?” Gold said as she fell to her knees.
"Moon did like that kiss you gave her." Heart pointed out.
“That doesn’t mean that she’ll love me the same way though.”
Heart gripped Gold's shoulder. "I can't tell you whether she loves you or not... But if you truly love her... You'll know when to say it. Now, let's not keep mast- I mean Nightmare, waiting."
“Just go on ahead of me, I have to think for a while.” Gold said to her sisters.
Heart and Silver walked out, leaving Gold alone in the cell.

                      Small Surprises                      
//-------------------------------------------------------//
Small Surprises
Silver looked to her sister as they walked behind Moon towards the dining hall. The smell of cooked food filled the corridor as they grew closer, the alicorn guiding them through the maze of halls and doors with ease. “You think Gold will be alright?” She asked Heart.
Heart looked back and, while she couldn't see the cell door, she still knew it was behind them. "I think so... But, if she doesn't tell Moon that she loves her... I don't know."
Silver sighed. “What I don’t understand is why… Gold is being so bipolar today… One second its hate, now its love…” She shook her head. “And I thought I was traumatized."
"Well..." Heart started, choosing her words carefully. "I have an idea... If it works, Gold's sanity will be preserved."
“What kind of plan?"
"Well... You're probably not going to like it."
Back in the cell.
‘Why is it so hard for me to just tell her that I love her? Why should I have a reason to love her other than knowing that she needs to be loved just as everypony should, she needs a special somepony in her life, I just… don’t know how to tell her… What am I going to do?’ Gold thought to herself as she sat with her back to the wall, her knees hugged to her chest.’What can I do? I insulted her earlier thinking it would get me somewhere, get us somewhere and now look at me, I’m an emotional train wreck.’ The only thing that filled the room was the sound of Gold’s sobbing.
Back in the Dining hall.
Heart looked straight at Silver's eyes. "We have to join Gold in her love of Nightmare Moon."
“B-b-b-b-but… I-I don’t even know if I love her yet.” Silver stammered.
"Neither do I... But, if we love Moon as well, chances are that Gold will come out and say it. Maybe." Heart sighed. "This whole plan rides on that 'maybe'." Heart then looked at Silver very seriously. "Are you going to go through with this? For Gold's sake?"
The zebra looked away. “I… I don’t know… That’s a pretty big maybe…”
"I know... But I don't see any other alternatives..."
Silver sighed. “I’ll… think about it… This just doesn’t ride on how Gold feels, but also if Moon is worthy of my love. Until she proves to me that she is, that’s when I’ll open up. I have trust issues, remember?”
"I know... There's too many things that could go wrong with this plan... But it's our only shot."
“Guhhh… Whelp… I guess I can finally have a real special somepony if this works.” Silver replied with a shrug.
Heart was about to say something, but was interrupted by Nightmare Moon’s voice. “I made it all just for you. I kinda had it planned because of how much you three seemed to enjoy last night. I just… I don’t know… Thought maybe I could attempt to get you to understand why it is that I did what I did.” She said as she led the sisters into the dining hall. She turned back to look at the two mares, whose mouths were watering at the display of food, but one was missing. “Where’s Gold?”
“Umm… Back in the cell.” Silver pointed behind her with her thumb. “She said something about needing to think some things over.”
Moon looked worried. “She didn’t follow?”
“Well… no. She told us to go ahead.” Heart said.
“She’ll get lost again!” Moon cried, pushing past the two mares and running back down the corridor, but not before looking back at the two sisters and calling out. “Stay there! I don’t want you getting lost too!” And with that she sprinted through the castle.
Heart looked at Silver. “Well… I guess we can say for sure that Nightmare has some feelings for Gold.”
Somewhere in the castle.
Tears still streaming from her eyes, Gold had been lost for an hour by now but continued walking, wandering aimlessly. She was already exhausted from walking for so long that she collapsed in the middle of the hall and just lied there curled up on the floor letting her tears flood freely. ‘I’ll never make it out of here.’ Gold thought to herself, giving up on continuing to search for the way to the dining hall. That same thought ran through her mind the entire time, she continued to cry until she felt unconsciousness begin to take over her, she was too exhausted to fight the feeling and closed her eyes, succumbing to the darkness of sleep.
"Gold!? Golden Eye!?" Moon's voice called through the castle as she searched for one of the the mares she had fallen for. 'Please be OK...' Was the only thought that ran through her mind.
It wasn't until the alicorn rounded the corner that led to the organ room, that she found the unconscious mare. "Gold!" She cried and ran to her side, dropping on her knees next to the miserable form. She reached out and gently touched Gold's shoulder.
Gold’s eyes slowly cracked open. She looked around to see who had touched her shoulder to find that it was Nightmare sitting on the floor next to her. “Wh- where am I?” she asked in a groggy tone.
“I’d say you’re somewhere between angry and sad.” Moon replied with a somewhat calmer voice. “Is there a reason you decided to go off on your own? Even knowing how easily you would get lost?”
Gold pushed herself into a sitting position and waited a few seconds to ensure her balance, then threw her arms around Moon, pulling her into a tight hug. “I’m so sorry... I-I was just having so much trouble thinking of how to tell you... how much I love you and trying to... get my sisters to understand that... I told them to go on without me, after a while... I decided to try to make my way to rejoin you and my sisters, but... I wound up here.” she said as tears began to fall past her cheeks.
This shocked the mare of the night. “You… love me?” She asked in a weak voice, sounding close to tears herself.
“Y-yes… I-I just didn’t know how to tell you.” Gold said past near sobs.
Moon hugged the pegasus tighter, tears of her own having spilled out of her eyes. “Even… e-even after yesterday? H-how can you forgive so quickly and yet your youngest sister still shuns me?”
“Yes… even after yesterday… I realized that you did what you did because you were in need, you still have that need for love and that need is not being satisfied, I want to help satisfy that need.” Gold replied, tears still flowing from her eyes.
Nightmare Moon pulled away from the mare and gazed into her teary eye, searching for anything that would give this away as a lie, but Gold’s golden eyes told everything. She had meant every word. “I… I-I… I…” Moon attempted to speak, but before she could form what she wanted to say, she broke into sobs and buried her face into Gold’s bare chest. “I-I’m so sorry!” The alicorn cried in desperation. “I-I’m such a *hick* t-terrible pony!”
Gold placed a finger beneath the mares chin and lifted Moon’s eyes to her own tear filled eyes. “No… you’re not.”
Just looking into the golden eyes of the mare that found love in her was making her heart break at how much she had hurt her and her sisters, especially Heart. “Y-*hick* yes I am… I even b-broke Heart of her *hick* free spirited nature… And I stole Silver’s virginity… All while leaving you all mares.”
“Listen to me…” Gold said in the calmest tone she could. “even though they may not forgive you yet… doesn’t mean I shouldn’t either. Heart’s free spirited nature can be restored… with time. Silver… she doesn’t really trust you that well yet, but her trust can be gained.”
Moon’s body trembled as emotions criss-crossed through her. Her mind was in total anarchy, something that had not happened to her in over a thousand years. “But… How can a seemingly perfect pony like you… love a monster like me? I took over your aunt’s body, remember? I nearly destroyed everything with her own power! I’m the real freak here!”
“You are not a monster and I am not perfect, we all have our flaws.” Gold stated. “ Your actions in the past were nothing more than mistakes. We all make mistakes, and it’s time for you to put the past in the past, so don’t call yourself a freak just because of something that’s in the past, because you are not a freak, you were just misunderstood, even I can be misunderstood at times. My sisters can even tell you that.”
The emotions boiled past everything Moon had that kept her from showing her true self, that there was nearly nothing left of her made up persona. She placed her hand on the back of Gold’s neck and thrust her lips against the mare’s.
Gold’s eyes widened in surprise from the sudden kiss but immediately returned the kiss with all of the love and passion she could possibly give.
The kiss was short, but it displayed the intense feelings of need from the lonely alicorn, the love she held, the love she wanted. “Gold… I’ve loved you and your now sisters since I first laid eyes on you three.”
“And just so you know… I kinda like being a mare… It’s even better than I had ever dreamed of.” Gold replied. “The pleasures that I had only heard of as a stallion, they are more than I had ever dreamed of being able to experience.”
Moon giggled. “You are a naughty mare.”
“Can’t blame a pony for something they like, can you now?” Gold argued playfully.
Giggling again, Moon stood and helped Gold to her hooves. “I hope you’re hungry.”
Back in the dining hall.
“By mother, this is delicious!” Silver exclaimed. She and Heart had sat down to eat while Moon had gone in search of Golden Eye. “Why couldn’t the royal chef cook this good?”
“No clue.” replied Heart, wondering at the taste of the food.
“This right here,” Silver shoved another bite into her mouth, chewing and swallowing it. “almost makes me love Moon already. I mean, who doesn’t like a partner that can cook?”
“I know right?! Mmmmm… How do you suppose she does it? How does she make it this good?!”
“Beats the hell out of me! She’s freakin’ Nightmare Moon! She can do this kind of thing!” Silver exclaimed, taking a few more bites and sipping on the wine that had been provided.
“Still… Why is she doing all this? Why cook this much for just the four of us?” Heart wondered.
She shrugged. “I dunno… Maybe her appetite is like mother’s. You know how much she eats to maintain her energy while having a constant magic feed to the sun.”
“Yeah… But isn’t Luna the one who controls the moon? What does Nightmare control?”
Silver placed a finger on her chin as she pondered this for a moment. “Well… it might be something like vengeance or something, meaning she likes equality.”
“That’s exactly correct, Silver Soul.” Moon’s voice called, startling the zebracorn. The alicorn strode into the dining hall with a wide, giddy smile on her face, Gold following close behind. “You’re smarter than your sisters give you credit for.”
“Hey, I gave her credit when she came up with a good point back in Canterlot.” replied Heart. “So… you found Gold?”
“She did… and I was relieved that she did. I’ll let her tell you what happened when she found me.” Gold said smiling widely.
Moon and Gold sat down at the table. Moon sat next to Heart, while Gold was next to Silver. Taking a bite of her own food, the alicorn began to explain how far through the castle she searched for Gold. Then she got to the part when she found the pegasus and the state she was in. “It broke my heart to see her like that. It made me end up sinking that low myself.” Moon shook her head. “It had been at least five hundred years since I had last cried… Really cried like I had done not more than a few minutes ago.”
“Whoa…” Silver looked over at her sister, who was fidgeting in her seat. “She… broke down that badly?”
“She did, she even fell as far as to calling herself a freak, which I corrected her on, and I was finally able to say what I meant to say.” Gold replied.
“We’re in love!” Moon yelled into the air with glee.
Heart’s eyes widened. She lent over and whispered into Silver’s ear. “I guess we don’t need to rely on my plan after all…”
“Why not just still keep going with it? It might turn into something fun.” whispered Silver, whose eyes were just as wide.
“You mean… You actually want to?” questioned Heart.
The zebra sighed. “I don’t see much of an alternative, besides… she’s really great in bed.” Silver said with a blush.
"What are you two talking about over there?" Gold asked.
“N-nothing!” Silver said quickly.
Nightmare stared at Silver and Heart for a moment. “Anyway… So what do you think about my cooking?”
“I’m amazing. H-How do you make it so good? I mean… what do you put in it?” asked Heart.
Moon choked on her wine in surprise at the question and reeled over coughing. She quickly recovered, looking at the three mares. “Well… ahem… You see… I kinda used our… umm… sexual fluids as a type of flavoring…” The alicorn said with a sheepish laugh.
Silver’s jaw dropped as well as the fork she had been holding.
Heart choked. “W-What?! You… what?!”
Gold savored the taste of the food in her mouth before swallowing, “I rather like the taste of it, it’s… how do you say it… magnificent. I know, I’m a very naughty mare, aren’t I?”
“I’m… I’m eating my own cum? A-as well as all of yours?” Silver asked in a weak voice.
Heart just stared at the food she had so thoroughly enjoyed a few seconds before, her eyes blank and unseeing.
“Well you all seemed to like it.” Moon stated in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone. She took a bite of her own. “Besides, I’ve cooked like this for years. I mean, seriously. Its not like you haven’t tasted mine already.
Gold just looked at Moon and smiled. “Looks like I’m not the only one being naughty right now.”
Nightmare giggled. “Can you blame me?”
Gold just giggled. “You two can’t sit there and tell us that its not good. You just said it was delicious!”
Silver blushed. “I’m not gonna lie there… It tastes better than most everything I’ve ever eaten, besides mother’s cooking.”
“I learned from Celestia.” Moon added. “Its funny how little you all know about how kinky your mother really is.”
Gold paused, taken completely by surprise. “She.. .You… Well, that’s… new.”
“She never cooked like that for you. I learned it when I was hiding inside of Luna. There are so many things Luna and Celestia did that it made my head spin. Its ridiculous! Your mother and Luna are incestrial lovers!” Moon exclaimed.
“Okay, let’s just keep this little secret to ourselves, Silver, Heart, I don’t want mother knowing that we found out about any of this. Gold said, her eyes wide with surprise.
“What? You’re scared she’d,” Moon snickered. “Punish you three?”
Silver stiffened. “W-would she do that!?”
Nightmare leaned over towards Silver. “Silver… As crazy as this may sound, I’m not the only alicorn around that would do what I did to you and your sisters. I’m surprised Luna had kept her distance, especially from you, Silver.” A smile settled on the alicorn’s lips. “Now be a sweetheart and finish the food I cooked for you.”
After calming down from what she had just heard, Gold continued eating, savoring every single bite, followed closely by Silver.
Nightmare then noticed that Heart still wasn’t eating. She leaned up against the mare and wrapped an arm around her. “What is wrong, my dear unicorn? Hath I foiled thy hunger? Tis nothing, Heart. What it is doth not change its flavor. Thy had just enjoyed thyself not more than a moment ago, yet here thy are…”
Heart didn’t answer, her mind completely in a mess from what she just heard. She just stared down at her food, still with a blank stare on her face.
Moon sighed as she placed her hand under Heart’s chin and made her look Moon in the eyes. “Heart… I understand how you might feel, about your mother and aunt, even me and my actions, but everything I’ve done was for you three. I know the way I went about doing them was wrong, but… No, there’s no excuse for the things I’ve done. I was rash and blinded by pride.”
Gold looked up away from her food and at Moon “I have no need for a reason to forgive you, as I have said earlier, I have already forgiven you.”
“And I thank you, but I still feel empty without your sisters to forgive me, but they won’t… Not anytime soon.” Moon said with a deep sigh. “I messed up really bad.”
“Honestly… they don’t know how they feel about you yet, hence making them reluctant to forgive you, but with my help and your effort to prove that you can be a better pony as you have already proven to me. I also want to apologize for the way I treated you earlier.”
“You were justified. I’m a bad pony…” Tears sprung to Moon’s eyes. “But… Let this be the first step to changing that.” She lent forward towards Heart and gently kissed her, her lips soft and gentle towards the mare, her actions full of care and compassion.
Heart’s eyes widened as she was about to push Nightmare away, but then she realised she was actually enjoying the touch. She wrapped her arms around Moon and pulled her closer, deepening their kiss.
Giving an excited pur, Moon gently caressed Heart’s shoulders as they kissed, but like with Gold, it didn’t last long, before she pulled away. “I want to win you over, nothing more, nothing less. I love all three of you and I wish to prove it, though first… I want you three to send a letter to Celestia for me.”
Silver, shaking off the shock from what she had just witnessed, looked curiously at Nightmare. “What for?”
“Well, Soul, I don’t want your mother to send her entire army in here and try to kill me. I need her to know you’re alright and that you’ll be willingly staying with me a while.”
Gold looked at Moon once more. “Moon, I’d stay for as long as I live if I could, just to be with you.”
“Well the fact is that you can’t, unless Celestia permits it. I must follow her rules if I’m to claim her acceptance, but thank you.” Moon replied with a nod towards the mare she had found love in.
Heart spoke up, the first time she has said anything in a while. “Why send a letter? If you two truly love one another… then you should both stand in front of our mother and confess it. She might actually accept it if you do that.”
She sighed. “Well… I want to get to know all of you. I need her to know you’re staying with me. I can’t go anywhere close to Canterlot anyway. She needs to know in advance. She won’t let me in.”
“As long as you can show me around the castle so I don’t get lost, I’m down with that. Oh! And our magic, clothes, my scythe. All of that needs to be given back. I want free will in order for me to even consider being with you.” Silver stated, crossing her arms.
Heart was thinking deeply, her mind constructing a plan. She looked at Moon. “Even if we send a letter ahead, ponies will still panic when they see you.” She looked straight into Moon’s eyes. “Do you trust me?”
“I understand what you are thinking, but I am the captain of the guard as well as a prince, well princess now.” Gold said, giggling at the last phrase.
“I’m not wearing a dress, no matter how much of a princess I am.” Silver stated. “You can hang that shit up right now.”
“We should at least let mother know that we are safe and will be staying a while.” Gold said.
“Yeah. It is a good idea.” Silver nodded. “I just hope mother hasn’t already had a heart attack about us being gone so long.”
“We should also send Aunt Twilight a letter, letting her know what’s happened thus far.”
“No!” Both Silver and Moon cried.
“Or at least let her know how we are doing.”
“That wouldn’t be wise…” said Heart.
“Princess Twilight is not only an element of harmony, but she’s my equal now. I can’t end up fighting her, Celestia, and the other elements. If this is going to work for all of us, this must take time.” Nightmare explained.
“Which brings me back to my plan… which can wait for the time being…” spoke up Heart.
“You’re actually right about that… I don’t want to end up causing any problems before any of us really get to love you for the mare you really are, instead of that monster you knew yourself as.” Gold said. “Let’s just get that letter sent.”
“We can do it when I’m done eating.” Silver interjected. “I’m hungry for seconds.”
Moon smiled. “Well look who else is being naughty, you adorable zebra.”
After having eaten, the three sisters went back to the cell, not being locked inside, but just relaxing on the comfortable furniture that had been placed inside. Heart was writing down a letter while Gold told her what to write. Silver was laying across a bed, polishing her scythe that had been recently returned. “What do you think mother will send back?” Silver asked from across the room.
“Not a clue, but that doesn’t matter now.” said Heart, continuing to write. “I suppose I should let you in on my plan now, since it’s quite important.”
Silver perked her ears up, ready to listen. “Let’s hear it.”
Heart put down the quill she was writing with, rolled up the scroll and placed it back down. “As I’ve said before, our mother probably won’t believe us through just written words alone. So, we need to get Moon into Canterlot… However, how are we going to do that? Enchantments surround the castle, ponies will get scared if they see Nightmare Moon, there are just too many obstacles in our path.” She paused for a moment before continuing. “This plan requires a few things. Our trust of Moon, Moon’s trust, and mother’s trust of us. And magic… that’s one thing we need above everything else.”
“Yeah… I’ve already guessed that a sob story wouldn’t work. Moon has quite a few issues, but those won’t help us. There needs to be something real to latch onto and the only way to do that is for Moon to win both me and Heart over.”
“We could try to get some cloaks or something.”
Silver and Heart both glared at Gold with bemused expressions. “You’re kidding… Right?”
Gold raised a brow. “At least it’s worth a try.”
The young mare shook her head. “You don’t know anything about magic, do you?”
Heart interrupted before a fight could break out. “Once we’ve gained her trust, and she’s gained ours, and me and Silver have our magic back, I’ve figured out a way of getting her into the castle without setting off any enhancements or alarming any ponies. In fact, everything should go smoothly.”
“Key word there is ‘should’ meaning that something ‘could’ screw up. We’re playing something pretty risky here.” Silver added.
“Then let me rephrase what I said. Everything ‘will’ go smoothly.” Heart said, staring straight at her sister.
“I sometimes curse you for your confidence… Fine, but if shit hits the fan… It was your idea.”
“I don’t know Heart… there’s a lot of risk in what you are planning… are you sure you want to take that much of a risk?” Gold said, unsure of Heart’s current plan.
Heart laughed. “You’ve known me for how long? And yet you guys don’t know that I always have some sort of evidence to back up my claims and my plans? I’ll say it again, nothing will go wrong.” She cleared her throat. “Remember a few years back. For old times sake, we once played ‘Hide and Go seek’ in the castle?”
“I think so, why?” Gold asked.
“None of you could find me. Not even with a spell, as I know Silver, you did try.”
“What does this have to do with mother and trusting Moon?” Silver asked, looking curiously at her sister. “I’m still confused at how Moon is supposed to try and win me over, me with all my trust issues.”
Heart shook her head. “This has nothing to do with trust. Weren’t you listening? This is a plan to get Moon into the castle. Now, remember back to a few days ago. I pulled a sword from out of nowhere. Remember?”
“You mean that little slip space thingy you did?”
“The one you did that I thought you pulled your fucking rapier out of my heart?”
Heart giggled. “That was just for show. I can do it anywhere. Anyway, I know, without a doubt, that you can hide anything in there. Anything, of any size. Do you get my plan now?”
“You sneaky bitch! That’s brilliant!” Silver exclaimed.
“Why didn’t you just tell us you would do that in the first place?”
“I like being a little mysterious.” replied Heart. “And yes, that little slip in space is our way in… or more specifically, Moon’s way in.”
“But this whole plan will be meaningless if Moon can’t gain mine and your affection. There has to be a way for that to work.” She turned to Gold. “Gold, you think you could work a few emotions out of Moon? See if she can’t be compassionate towards us. Maybe like… a date for each of us. Her trying to really get us to love her for the mare she is under her pride.”
Gold froze as she felt her sisters’ gaze fall on her. “I-I… I don’t know, it depends on what exactly you want me to do.”
“You get her to want to make us happy. Tell her to make both mine and Heart’s day special. I’m more of an afternoon person, so mine can be in the P.M. Heart can have a breakfast date, and I’ll have a dinner date.” Silver explained. “You, already being Moon’s lover, are the best one to get Moon to do it.”
“I… I’ll try.” Gold said, afraid that she could possibly hurt Moon’s feelings and hurt their relationship if she doesn’t get it right.
Silver nodded. “Good. We’ll send the letter today. Gold can tell Moon about the dates after lunch. Moon can ask us out at dinner. And I’ll sleep as long as I normally do, while Heart and Moon are having their time.”
“I’m fine with that… Just one thing.” said Heart. “Sex is off the table… just to make that clear.”
“Well, duh! You think I’m going to fuck her right off the gate!? No!” Silver yelled to her sister.
“Hey! Stop taking things the wrong way… I don’t want her to fuck me! I just want a nice breakfast with her, nothing more!”
“But what if I do want nothing more than to just be ravaged by a lover tonight? You two gonna let me have her all to myself?”
“You’re a sex freak, Gold.” Silver stated.
“And why would you say that?” Gold asked.
“Umm… Lets see… You JUST figured out you love her AFTER she technically raped us. And you weren’t even fazed at all by eating our cum.” The zebra mare replied with a sarcastic tone.
“Who can blame me for liking the things that I like,” Gold retorted. “and loving the ones that I love?”
“Silver has a point, Gold… Just take it slowly at first. I don’t care what you do after that, but at least get to know her first.” said Heart.
“I understand what you are saying, but don’t you get my point as well?” Gold asked
“Look… Maybe you could be in on this whole date thing too. Like have her have lunch with you. Talk about love, not lust. Ask about each other. Make her feel just as welcome as you feel towards her. She’ll open up.” Silver cut in.
“Yeah. Gold, you can’t just go… Balls deep. You want to gain her trust just as much as she gain ours.” Heart added.
Gold looked away. “I guess you’re right…”
“Now let’s get that letter sent and go try and learn how to get through the castle without getting lost. I can already feel my magic coming back.” Silver said in a lighter tone as she disassembled her scythe and stowed it away in her bag that Moon had returned as well.
Heart picked up the letter and concentrated for a bit. It took a while, most of her magic hadn’t returned, but she finally managed to send the letter to Celestia.
“I’m going to get some rest before lunch so just wake me before then.” Gold said, heading for the bed in the cell. “You know what to do if something goes wrong.”
“You always made sure we did. Now I’m gonna go take a look around.” Silver said as she stood and walked out of the cell. “Send me a flash note if you need me.” And with that, the zebra made her way through the confusing halls.

                Forgiveness, Love... Anger                 
//-------------------------------------------------------//
Forgiveness, Love... Anger
Somewhere deep inside the castle, somewhere somewhat familiar to a certain zebracorn...
Silver wandered through the vast halls of the castle, memorizing the passage ways she took and the areas she ended up at, even finding a few secret doors on the way, a few of them leading to places that made her shiver with slight excitement. It had been about an hour since she left the room and had nearly found her way back to the library, when she heard the sound of a mare crying.
The sobs seemed to echo from a hall to Silver’s right, so naturally she took it and began walking down it, the cries growing louder the further she walked. The hall eventually ended at two diagonally facing doors, one with a crest sun and the other with a crescent moon. The crying seemed to come from the one with the moon. “Nightmare…” Silver said to herself as she reached out and opened the unlocked door, walking in.
Silver’s eyes widened. On her knees at the side of the queen sized bed, face buried into the blankets, was Nightmare Moon. The alicorn was sobbing loudly and uncontrollably, the blankets already soaked through with tears. A few items around the room were shattered and her knuckles were bleeding slightly. Her floating mane was a mess as well as her tail and her dress had been discarded, leaving Moon half naked.
“Moon!” Silver cried and ran to her side, kneeling down to pull Nightmare into a tight embrace. “Shhhh… Its ok… its ok…” She whispered.
Moon turned and wrapped her arms around Silver, burying her face into her shoulder. “I-I… *hick* I…”Moon choked out. “I’ll never… be accepted by… by Celestia…” She said before breaking into another fit of sobs.
Silver pulled Moon closer. “Don’t say that. What would Gold say if she heard you say that?”
“I… I-I know that she w-wouldn’t be… too happy… a-about it, but… y-your mother… she h-hates me… why would she accept me?” Nightmare stated between sobs and sniffles. “W-why should she?”
“Shhh… She adopted me when everypony else hated me… You made a mistake. I’m not forgiving you for it yet, but I can’t be too hard on you. I myself lived a life of loneliness. She loves me for who I really am and now I know what you did wasn’t you.”
“But I’m not… Like you… it was me… I tried to… bring about eternal night… using Luna’s own power… I’m a… a monster…” Moon cried out loudly.
“No… That was not you. This is you, regretting every second of everything you’ve ever done wrong. That was pride and hate for those that made Luna herself lonely.” Silver corrected. “And if nopony else sees that… They can kiss my clit.”
“Well… I-I’m sure... Gold saw it when... she first realised that she... loved me… She’s the only… one that I know of… that actually loves me…” Moon stated. “and I love her too… but she’s… t-the only one… that loves m-me.”
“You can change that.”
“Y-you mean it?” Moon said as she looked Silver in the eyes, searching for anything that could prove her wrong but saw that every word was true, bringing her to sobs again as she buried her face once more into Silver’s shoulder.
“I don’t normally tell lies.” Silver added as she comforted the sobbing alicorn. “You may have done some pretty messed up things in your life, but nopony’s perfect and mistakes will be made, but that doesn’t change who you really are, somepony that’s hurt. And Nightmare Moon doesn’t really mean that you’re evil, does it? Your name has another meaning, doesn’t it?”
“Y-you’re right… I’m not evil, but… my name… what could it possibly mean other than what I’m known for.” Nightmare said.
“Now that I think about it… I think it means you have a fear, a nightmare. You’re afraid of ending up like the moon, lonely and watching as others find love.” Silver said, giving Moon a comforting squeeze. “You’re even afraid of it happening to others under the light of the moon.”
“I… I was afraid, I never wanted to see anypony feeling or being lonely and without love… but what I did with Luna and her moon… I just… I feel so terrible for doing that to her and everypony in Equestria.” Moon said, her sobbing calming down to sniffles and tears. “What I did to you and your sisters, I just feel so horrible for doing it that way.”
Silver smiled. “Now I can forgive you.”
Moon tightened her arms around Silver, holding her in an embrace that she hadn’t been able to give to anypony of her own. “I’m so so sorry, for everything.”
“It doesn’t matter now. You know why?” Silver asked, rubbing the mare’s back gently.
“Why’s that?” Moon replied, looking up at Silver.
“Because…” Silver leaned down and kissed Moon gently on the lips, licking her lips as she pulled away a few seconds later. “Now you have to focus on winning my affection.”
“I’ll try.” Moon said, a small smile of happiness and relief appearing on her face. “What do I have to do?”
“Prove you can love me. I want your compassion. I want you to be there no matter what. I want you to give everything from your heart. The same goes for my sisters. I want you to love us all as equals, one no more than the other. None of us will ever be used… Well in Heart’s case, only if she asks. The same goes for us. We won’t use you.” Silver explained. “But most of all… I never… ever want to see you down talk another pony or any living thing for that matter. Only if said being insults or attacks me, my sisters, or you are you to hurt or talk down to another.”
“I understand… so should we get ready for lunch or should we wait?” Moon asked, standing up, looking at her hands afterward. They were covered in dust, mascara, and a little bit of blood from her knuckles. “I should probably get my hands cleaned up.”
“I’ll get my sisters. You get yourself looking pretty again. I’ll see you in the dining hall.” Silver said, standing up.
“Okay… I’ll see you in a bit then, alright.” Moon replied, then went to the nearest source of running water she could find to clean herself up with.
Silver nodded and walked out of the room and made her way back to her sisters. Striding back into the cell, she found that Gold was still asleep and Heart was lying with her arms behind her head.
The zebracorn smiled widely as she entered, her sister looking at her funny. “Heart, I… I think I’m in love.”
“Really? You don’t mean with Moon, do you?” asked Heart.
Silver blushed, shying away cutely. “Is there a problem with that?”
“No problem… but you have ‘trust issues’... How did she get past those?”
Silver walked further inside and sat down on the sofa. “When I was exploring, I found Moon’s room. It was pretty torn up from a fit. I found her crying… about not being accepted by Celestia. She looked so… weak and afraid… Naturally I comforted her.” She said with a saddening expression. “She was so sorry… It hurt to even hear her say it… Nightmare Moon… Her name isn’t even scary anymore now that I figured out its true meaning.”
“It’s true meaning?” questioned Heart. “What do you mean?”
“I mean I found that it didn’t really mean she’s meant to be a nightmare for others. Rather that her nightmare is she becomes as lonely as the moon itself.”
Heart looked interested. “That pretty interesting… So… you love her now?”
Silver blushed. “Well… Yeah… I guess.” She looked away. “I… e-even kissed her… on my own.”
“Well, that’s you done.” sighed Heart. “Now, she just need my affection.” She shuddered slightly. “What if I start calling her master again? Will I be able to control myself?”
“Hay. You don’t need to worry about that. Besides, from what I can tell, that was your hidden fetish. You naughty bitch you.” Silver teased.
Heart blushed. “It wasn’t my hidden fetish… she basically forced it on me.”
“Oh? I heard you loved every second.”
“I- I- Well-... I can’t say that I didn’t enjoy it.”
Silver had to hold her victorious laughter. “You are a naughty bitch, big sis.”
“Look who’s talking… You basically just kissed the alicorn...” She thought for a second. Her counter-argument didn't bring up any points... “Actually… you might be right…”
She had to work harder to hold back her laughter. ‘OH MOTHER! I’m gonna burst!’
“Just laugh already Silver!” Heart yelled.
With that, Silver burst into laughter, falling into Heart’s lap, laughing so hard that tears came to her eyes.
Heart sighed and she watched her younger sister dying of laughter right in front of her. “You done?” she asked after a while.
“Y-yeah…” Silver panted.
Heart started to trail her fingers through Silver’s mane. “Good. For a second there, I thought you wouldn’t stop.”
“I would… have… laughed myself… to death…”
Heart sighed and continue to brush Silver’s mane. “The hell did Moon do to me…” she whispered.
“She opened you up to something even you didn’t know about yourself, Heart.”
“That’s… partly true.”
Silver rolled onto her back to look up at Heart from Heart’s lap. “Pfft, partly my ass. You hated pain, before Moon.”
“That’s true… But…” Heart couldn’t think of any retort. “Okay, fine, it was an experience. Can we leave it at that?!”
The zebracorn giggled. “Sure, and fyi, its time for lunch.”
“What does that- Oh…” Heart cleared her throat. “Gold, wake up!” she yelled.
Gold's eyes snapped open before she sat up. "So, what happened while I was asleep?"
“Oh, not much…” sighed Heart. “Silver got the 1-up on me and she loves Moon, so nothing really exciting. How was your sleep?”
"Best I've had in ages." Gold replied. "Although that Scarlet chick popped up again, this time she was doing something to a wall, I couldn't figure it out cause every time I tried to move it seemed like I was walking in place."
“Better hope she doesn’t pop up while you’re in bed with me and Moon.” Silver giggled.
It was Heart’s turn to laugh. “Yeah.” Then her face grew interested. “I wonder… maybe this pony’s actually real… What did she look like?”
“Yeah. She sounds familiar.”
"Her fur is like a scarlet color, her mane and tail are black, and her eyes were silver in color." Gold replied.
Silver’s eyes widened. “Don’t tell me… Captain Scarlet Rain of the Crystal Empire?”
"Wait... You mean to tell me that you know this pony?" Gold asked.
“Hell yeah, I know her!” Silver cried. “The best assassin of her class! And she would talk about you non stop.”
Heart almost fell off the sofa. “You’re kidding! THE Captain Scarlet Rain!? Always talked about OUR Golden Eye?!”
Silver laughed. “I know! Un-fucking-believable!”
"I didn't know I was that damned famous."
“That’s the thing. You’re not that famous.”
"So why would she talk about me?" Gold asked.
Silver placed her hand on her sister’s shoulder. “The world may never know.”
"What did she say about me?"
“A bunch-o mushy things about how proud and strong you looked.” Silver said with a shrug. “There were a few conversations where she had been a little drunk and started ranting off about a bunch-o kinky things about you that popped into her head, ended up giving me some weird dreams later.”
"Uhhhh... too much information... The only pony I can accept having kinky fantasies about me is Moon." Gold said.
Heart shook her head. “Whatever. The point is, Scarlet’s gotta thing for you. Lucky bastard…”
“Not like she’s ever gonna get Gold now." Silver crossed her arms.
“Yeah… you missed out on one fine looking mare…” said Heart, mimicking Silver’s pose.
"Damn straight she missed out." Gold said. "I am not leaving Moon for anypony."
“We~ll… Anyway, its time for lunch.” Silver stated. “Moon should be getting finished up now.”
"I won't have another breakdown like this morning, trust me." Gold said.
“Good… But one thing still bothers me… The food… I can understand where she gets her ‘juices’ from… But if you think about it… How do you suppose she got ours?” said Heart, shivering slightly.
Silver hit her sister on the head. “How do ya think? We were fucked senseless yesterday.”
“True… but… I don’t know. Point is, it bothers me.”
Silver shrugged. “I’m sure she might have run out this morning.”
"You never know though." Gold snickered.
“Shut up, Gold! I don’t care if you’re Moon’s lover, keep teasing me like that and I will END YOU!”
"You would do no such thing." Gold replied.
“You think so?”
"Sheesh, I was just joking Heart."
“Heart, You need to chill, or I’ll do it for you.” Silver scolded her elder sibling. “C'mon. We’re late for lunch.” And with that, the young mare turned and walked towards the door.
Gold followed close behind, ensuring that she wouldn't get lost. "Ya comin' Heart?"
"Yeah, yeah... In a bit... Just go on ahead."
"Oh no, not on my watch, I don't want you ending up like I did." Gold demanded.
"I'm not going to get lost or anything. I just need a minute alone. To collect my thoughts."
"That's the same damned excuse I used before I got lost, I'm not taking that chance with you!"
"Gold..." Heart warned, and for a moment a white light flashed in her eyes. She blinked and it was gone. "Please. Just go."
"Fine, it's not my fault if you get lost." Gold replied, then turned to continue following Silver.
“I swear, if I hadn’t already had a hard life before I met you two, I would say you’re the hardest things I’ve ever had to deal with.” Silver said as she walked through the halls with ease.
Heart waited until she heard the hoof steps recced and then sat down on the sofa again.
"That was close, Heart... You nearly lost it again..." she spoke to herself. She let out a long slow breath, her anger receding. "Remember last time you lost it?" She rubbed her head, erasing those terrible memories from her mind, the screams she heard, that she caused... "Just keep cool. Only one lunch, dinner and then breakfast, and then you're out of here." She stood up and threw open the cell door and followed her siblings to the dining hall.

Author's Note
See? I keep my promises! Here, a longer chapter for you to NOM on.
Planning
“There you three are! I was getting worried.” Moon said when she looked up to see the sisters entering the room.
“Had a small… communication problem back in the room.” Silver replied and took a seat. “Sorry we took so long.”
Moon waved it off with her hand. “It's quite alright, so long as you’re here. No need for apologies.”
"Well... Um... I-I..." Gold paused. "I just don't know what to say."
“No, there isn’t any ‘special’ ingredient today. You can relax.” Moon giggled. “But Silver’s reaction was still the funniest when I said what it was.”
Silver blushed. “What!? I’ve never tasted my own cum. Shocked the hell out of me.”
"I-it's not that, it's something I'd rather discuss while my sisters aren't here."
Moon popped her neck and sighed. “After lunch.”
Gold nodded and calmed down, taking her seat at the table.
Silver opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, a bright flash of golden magic flashed in the center of the table, blinding everypony there momentarily. When they opened their eyes, a rolled up scroll sat in the middle of the table. Silver leaned over the table and picked it up, before unrolling it. As soon as it was fully open, Silver was instantly hit with Celestia’s royal Canterlot voice.
“WHAT IN TARTARUS HAS GOTTEN INTO YOU!? MARES!? SHE TURNED YOU INTO MARES!? BY THE GODS! THE THINGS I COULD DO! AND YOU’RE CHOOSING TO STAY AFTER SHE DID WHAT TO YOU!? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU THREE!?”
Silver dropped the letter as soon as it was done screaming in her face. Her mane was blown back and her eyes were wide with fear. She shook slightly in her seat, before face-planting into the table. “M-my ears… They bleedeth.” Silver moaned.
“Uh… guys… I think we can agree that hearing damage isn’t our top priority here…” Heart said, then looked at Moon, who had tears dripping down her face.
“S-s-s-s-she s-still hates me…” The alicorn whimpered.
"I'll suffer the consequences before I let her keep my love from you, Moon." Gold said, moving around the table to embrace Moon, comforting her the best she could.
“I-I don’t want you to s-suffer!” She wailed in Gold’s arms.
"But I will if I must to prove to mother that I truly love you."
“That’s true.” said Heart. “Which is why, I will be alongside you, as with Silver, when we tell her.”
Silver struggled to lift her head off the table, still throbbing with dull pain. She rubbed her fingers into her temple, attempting to relieve the pain. “Look, Moon. We’ve all decided to give you a chance to prove yourself, by making our day tomorrow special. Gold, tell her what we had in mind.”
"Well, to put it plain and simple, we were wanting you to take us all on a date, one at a time that is. Even though you already have my affection and trust, I do want to get to know more about you." Gold stated. "Silver, I don't know if she trusts you fully, but if she trusts you enough to love and forgive you, then you're doing good. She'll be available in the afternoon tomorrow, Heart will be available in the morning. I'll be available for lunch, this is your chance to really prove to my sisters that you truly love us, you don't need to prove it to me because I can see it in your eyes and your heart."
Heart nodded. "What our mother thinks, and what we think, are two completely different things... I'm sure Celestia will see you as you are now, not as how you were before."
“H-how can you all be s-so optimistic about this?” Moon whimpered.
“Because we know the true you and we can prove to mother that you are not evil.” Gold replied.
“Right! I already trust you. When all three of us do, nothing mother says will ever change that.” Silver added.
Moon nearly burst into tears again at how much the siblings would give up for her. It made her heart ache. She sniffled and hugged Gold again. “I-I love you all.”
Gold motioned for her sisters to join the embrace before returning the embrace herself. “I’ll always love you.” She said.
Silver stood and wrapped her arms around the alicorn that she may have learned to love. “I’m not really sure how I feel, but I think I love you too.”
Heart joined in with the hug.
“I wish things with your past had turned out differently, Moon. I like this side of you much better than the one we all met yesterday.” Silver whispered as she squeezed the sobbing alicorn for a second time that day. “But I forgive you, no matter what you did, so long as you can admit it was wrong and bounce right back to the mare I and Gold love.”
Moon couldn’t take it anymore. She pulled all three mares closer and planted a kiss on each of their lips. “T-thank you! You girls make me the happiest I’ve ever been!”
“And I always want you to be happy, I know Silver would too.” Gold replied “Wouldn’t you Lil’ sis?”
“I can’t lie to ya there, big sis.” Silver giggled.
"Same here." replied Heart. While she hadn't become entirely in love with Moon, she still wanted her to be happy.
“You girls have no idea how happy hearing that makes me…” Nightmare said, sounding like she was about to cry again. “You three are… I-I can’t even find the words to describe what you mean to me at this moment.”
Silver blushed and nuzzled Moon’s neck. “You don’t have to say a word.” Then the mood was broken by the loud sound of Silver’s grumbling stomach, making the mare blush harder in embarrassment. “Heh…”
“Oh my… It would seem somepony’s hungry.” Moon giggled.
“Hehe… I guess I am.” She giggled back. “You girls hungry?” Silver asked her sisters.
"Yeah." answered Heart.
Gold nodded. “You bet I am.”
“Excellent!” Moon cheered as the mares released her, letting her get up. “I’ll only take a moment to get the food.” And with that, she left the mares to themselves.
Silver looked over to Heart with a smug grin. “I saw that blush when she kissed you… And how you kissed back.” She teased. “You enjoyed it.”
"Well..." Heart blushed. "If I didn't kiss her back, Moon would notice and possibly get sad or something."
“Bull shit.” Silver called her bluff. “Just say it… You’ve got some feelings for her, Heart.”
"N-no... I-I just..." Heart lost her train of thoughts and her voice trailed away.
“You’re just what? Torn between right and wrong?” Silver asked in a hard tone. “Because, once again, mother is wrong.”
“Silver! What have I told you about questioning mother’s authority!?” Gold scolded.
“Fuck that! She sent a letter that nearly blew my head off! And made Nightmare cry for the fourth time today!” She growled. “I’m not exactly being too friendly at the moment.”
Gold was shocked at what she had just heard from her youngest sister, “I see, it’s just… I wouldn’t normally question her authority either, but come to think of it… I’ve been doing that a lot lately. Mother… what is happening to me?”
“Exactly the same thing that happened to me and is obviously on its beginning stages of happening to Heart.” Silver replied. “Realizing how wrong we were… No matter how wrong Moon was.”
Gold fell to her knees as a sudden realization came over her that Silver was right. “I-I… I’m so sorry…”
“I’m not the one who that needs to be said to.”
“Don’t you give me that… I had no right snapping at you for what you said!” Gold nearly shouted as tears built up in her eyes.
Silver reared back and backhanded her eldest sister. “Shut the fuck up and get off the floor! None of that from my strong-as-a-brick sister! I will NOT have you saying sorry for doing your job as the oldest!”
“Why shouldn’t I be sorry… I have every reason to be!”
Silver backhanded her again on the other cheek. “I said shut up and get up!”
“I-I…” Gold choked. “I’m just a sorry excuse for a child of Celestia. That all I ever-” Before she could even finish the sentence, Silver’s anger hit its limit and Gold’s snout was met by a stinging fist, snapping her head to the side.
Heart had just about enough. She pulled Silver away. “That is ENOUGH!” Again, her eyes flashed with a white light. She took a long steadying breath. “Silver… just let Gold get up when she wants to, you can’t rush this.”
Silver struggled in her sister’s grasp. “No! I won’t let Gold be as weak as I was!” She froze as exactly what she had said registered in her ears, making every memory come rushing back. Tears formed in her eyes and slid down her cheeks as she gave up the struggle against Heart, going limp in her arms.
Heart slowly laid Silver on the floor and walked out in between the eldest and the youngest sister. She sat down too, joining them on the floor. “Silver… you’re right… We were wrong. And Gold… you don’t have to apologize to Silver. She was just as wrong as we were.” Heart sighed. “And… now that I think about it… our mother’s anger is pretty justified…”
“Heart! Listen to yourself! We are trying to GET mother to understand WHY we decided to stay… are we not?” Gold yelled.
Heart looked at Gold. “I know, but think about it from her point of view… Her only children have been turned into mares by her worst enemy. And her children are actually staying with that same enemy. How do you think that would make her feel?”
Silver sniffled. “Obviously pissed…”
“I’d like to see her take my love away from Moon… I’d like to see her try. I’m here trying to prove that an enemy can become a friend, and I love Moon more than anypony ever would.” Gold snarled.
Silver bolted upright. “You’re such a fucking hypocrite! Now who’s defying mother!?”
“Haven’t we all defied mother at one point in our lives!?”
“Yeah, that’s normally me!” She shot back.
“Enough!” yelled Heart again, her eyes flashing dangerously with that unnatural bright white light. “Look… even if mother accepts Moon as an ally… she won’t let us all come back to this castle. Think… how would she feel if she had to give up all of her children? She wouldn’t want to. So, I think that one of us has to stay behind with Celestia, while the other two go with Moon.”
“I’m not leaving Moon’s side for anything.”
“No… I think Gold should stay with Celestia. It would be harder to convince Gold that Moon had supposedly tricked us, than if I or Heart stayed.” Silver suggested.
“Forget it. Gold will never leave Moon. You have feelings for her bordering of love. I can’t break up any of that. I will be the one to stay.” said Heart with finality.
“No!” Silver yelled, making her sister flinch. “She’ll make you forget every bit of forgiveness you gained for Moon. You’ll see us as enemies. Mother means well, but her hatred does far more harm than good. We’ll need to think this out better...”
“What do you think I’ve been doing while we’ve been talking? Thinking. There’s no alternative.” A tear fell from Heart’s eye. “I know what will happen when I stay, what mother will force me to forget, how I will think of you afterwards…”
Silver was about to dissolve into tears at hearing Heart give up too, when a hand of pure brilliance mentally smacked her. She slammed her hands into the floor and yelled suddenly. “Cadence!”
Gold’s ears perked up. “What are you suggesting, Silver?”
“Cadence can help us!” Silver stated with a huge smile. “She’s the princess of love!”
“I’m listening.”
Heart looked at Silver with interest. “If you can come up with a better plan in five minutes, I’ll do it.”
“Ok, so here’s what my brain decided to slap me in the face with… Excuse the saying, Gold. I was thinking we take Moon to the Crystal empire, far out of mother’s reach and domain. The love that Moon has for us as well as the love we have for her will provide enough magic to allow us inside and considering the fact that Cadence knows little about Nightmare, she won’t be quick to judge. We have Cadence prove that Moon has changed, then we bring mother there to prove it first hand.” Silver explained on only a single breath, making her have to take a deep breath to continue. “There’s no guarantee that mother will be satisfied, but at least she’ll have much less to argue with, not only that, but we’ll have the princess of love to back us up.”
“What about Uncle Armor?”
“Armor?” Silver thought a moment. “Last I heard, he and small battalion went into the Equestrian badlands to search for Chrysalis after a changeling out break.”
“Then we speak to Cadence, but I stay with Moon no matter what.”
“Good, wouldn’t want you staying in the castle by yourself. Moon has to come with.” Silver stated.
“But I will say this… I will not let any harm come to Moon what-so-ever.” Gold stated. “I would rather have a sword driven through my heart for her defense than to let anything happen to her.”
“You take defense way too seriously, Gold.” She then turned to Heart, who seemed shocked by the plan that had just been laid out by her youngest sibling. “You think it could work, Heart?”
Heart thought for a minute. “It’s flawed… very flawed in a few places… depends on a lot of other things… And… we won’t have time…”
“Its better than you being our enemy.” Silver shot back. “And who said we had a time limit?”
“I had a plan to get around you being my enemy.” Heart retorted. “And… our mother’s anger will not hold. I wouldn’t be surprised if she is flying this way right now.”
“Where the hell did your optimism you had earlier go?”
“It all went into my anger!” yelled Heart, slamming her fist against the ground. The stone cracked.
Silver flinched, but her pride made her hold her ground. “Then you need to holster that! Losing your cool won’t get us anywhere!”
“How can I holster my anger!?” yelled Heart, her eyes flashing again with light. “Can you hide anger for over 8 years!? CAN YOU?!”
“I’ve done it for eight-fucking-teen, you ignorant bitch! How can you fucking ask something like that of somepony that jumped out in front of a moving cart, attempting to end their own life!?” Silver screamed.
“You two need to cool it, NOW.” Gold shouted.
Silver’s magic literally zipped Gold’s lips. “I attempted suicide… Because of a mother that didn’t love me… Because of ponies that hated me… Because I finally got fed up with life…” Tears were pouring out of Silver’s eyes, but she didn’t stop. “You know nothing of the pain and anger that I hide… I hated you all when I first saw you… You know why? Because you didn’t let me die. But you showed me what a life of being loved was like. I loved you all… But I still hold every… painful… second… as a reminder of what can and will happen to others. Loneliness and hatred.”
Heart’s anger faded. She sat quietly for a few seconds before she spoke. “I’m sorry… I forgot about how you felt, for all these years... But I guess it’s time for me to reveal… my own terrible past…”
Silver glared at Heart as she unzipped Gold’s lips.
“Silver… I’m sorry… How could I forget?” Gold asked. “No, don’t answer that, there’s no need, It’s my fault that things escalated to this point.” She said as she turned around looking away from her sisters.
“Don’t be sorry, Gold. It’s thanks to you that I finally pried Heart’s lock open.” Silver said coldly.
“What does that have to do with me forgetting about your past?” Gold said, tears again building up in her eyes.
Silver would have hit Gold again if it wasn’t for the fact that her last punch had made a small whelp on her snout. “You stirred us up and now we’ll know everything about each other. Won’t that be just the bonding experience?” Her tone was full of sarcasm. normally the tone she got when Celestia gave them ridiculous assignments, like what they had come to the castle to do in the first place.
“The bonding experience? Ha… I doubt you’ll want to be closer to me after I tell you… You see… while you two had others do things to you that left scars, I caused my own pain…” whispered Heart, her voice dark and low.
Gold slowly turned around. “Heart… y-you mean that you…” she stammered but feared to continue.
Silver’s entire emotional being shifted. ‘No wonder she liked what Moon did!’ She hadn’t meant for her mind fuck moment to show, but it was clearly stamped on her face.
Nothing escaped from Heart’s eyes, reading Silver’s face like a book. “Correct, Silver. It is why I enjoyed Moon’s actions so much…”
“Heart… You know that nothing of your past will ever change how I think of you. Ever.” Gold said, walking over to Heart, wrapping her arms around her sister.
“I’m back!” Nightmare Moon’s voice called from the doorway. Before the mares had even the chance to get off the floor, she strode in, carrying a tray of steaming food, which was nearly dropped when she saw how dreadful the siblings looked. “What… w-what’s going on here?”
Silver was at a loss for words, unable to explain at all, or even lie about what happened. She just sat there, stuck in a brain stall.
Gold pushed herself up off the floor, then rubbed the spot where the welt on her snout had appeared, wincing slightly at the pain from the touch. She opened her mouth but closed it immediately, also at a loss for words.
Heart looked up at Moon. "Just a small misunderstanding between sisters. Nothing to worry about."
Nightmare looked between the three, looking for some sort of argument, finding several, but keeping quiet. “Fine. Lunch is ready.” She said and set the tray down on the table.
Heart got up and took a bit of food without hesitation. "Thanks." she said to Moon as she passed.
Moon wanted to say something, anything that would comfort the distressed mares, but was afraid of saying the wrong thing. The conflicting emotions were eating her up inside, but still kept quiet, giving food out to the two other sisters, who looked just as gloomy.
However she may have felt, her mood quickly changed when she saw the look on Moon's face. "Is there something you want to talk about?"
Moon looked away. “N-no…”
"C'mon, it's gonna come out sooner or later so, might as well get it out now." Gold said as calmly as she possibly could.
“I don’t want to. I don’t like seeing you three upset at me or each other.” Moon said in almost a whisper.
"I'm not going to be upset at you, the only reason I was upset with them was because we had a misunderstanding and it got out of hand." Gold said, pointing to the welt on her snout.
"Gold's right." said Heart. "We're not angry at you... It was just something among us."
“I… I was wondering what the fighting was about…” Moon replied.
Silver spoke up. “You might not want to know most of it, but what the focus was around was trying to figure out a plan to get you accepted by mother. Heart suggested something emotionally dangerous and I came up with something physically dangerous. It escalated from there.”
“Then… Why does Gold have a bruise on her snout?”
Silver looked away and didn’t answer.
"Technically I brought it on myself, but it's kinda difficult to explain without making it seem like nonsense, so I'll let Heart explain." Gold said.
"Yeah... Sorry that I hit you Gold..." apologized Heart, making Silver’s eyes widen. "I was... Kinda out of it when I did that."
‘She… took the blow for me...’ Silver thought. 'Nononono, I can’t let her do that.’ She opened her mouth to speak, only to have a fork full of food magically shoved into her mouth.
Heart shot her a look of 'keep-quiet-I've-got-this' and turned her eyes back to Gold and Moon. "Can you forgive me, Gold?"
"You're my sister, of course I forgive you." Gold replied.
"Thank you. Can you forgive me as well, Moon?"
“Why wouldn’t I, Heart?“ Moon asked.
"I just wanted to make sure you could forgive me." replied Heart. "And I'm thankful that you can."
Silver still sat there, stunned that her sister had taken up for her violent actions.
“All I know is that my snout’s gonna be sore for a bit.” Gold stated.
Heart blushed. "I'm sorry."
“Again, I forgive you.” Gold replied.
“Well, I’m glad that everypony made up.” Nightmare chirped, smiling widely. “Now let’s all dig in!”
Heart smiled she as took her place at the table, taking her first bite.
“Do you like it?” Moon asked as she began eating her own food.
"Yes." replied Heart. "It's pretty good."
“Unbelievably good, if you ask me.” Gold replied.
Silver, who had had a fork of the food shoved into her mouth, simply gave a satisfied moan as her nerves finally calmed to where she could taste it.
“I’m so glad. I’ll have to make this often then.” Moon giggled.
As lunch went on, in the back of both Silver and Heart’s mind, they both worked through several ideas and plans, each trying to come up with something better than traveling to the Crystal empire. They came up with nothing. Cadence would be the only one who could prove Nightmare Moon’s innocence and genuine love.
Near to the end, after some interesting small talk, Silver spoke up. “Moon… I know you love us… But mother doesn’t. She’s as blind as we were.”
Moon’s mood seemed to deflate slightly. “Yes…”
“But… what if there was a way to prove it to her?”
The alicorn’s ears perked up. “H-how?”
"Princess Cadence." said Heart simply. "She can help us."
“We’ll be out of Mother’s reach until we’re ready to prove your innocence and your love for us.” Gold added.
“Exactly. All we need to do is sneak you to the empire.” Silver said. “My illusion magic can help you stay hidden, as well as making us three look like stallions again.”
Moon looked surprised. “W-which one of you came up with this?”
“Heart did.” Silver stated, lying to repay Heart for taking the blame for her violence.
Heart shot Silver a glare. "Yes, I did."
“Cadence will understand everything that we have gone through… won’t she, Heart?” Gold asked her sister.
"She should understand." said Heart. "Cadence is a fair princess, she'll understand."
“I hope so, for all of our sakes.” Silver shivered, thinking of what Celestia would do to them all.
Heart looked at Silver which said 'something-important-I-need-to-tell-you-later', and looked back at Moon. "Yeah, Silver, I hope we're right."
Nightmare’s mood lightened and a smile as big as Pinkie’s stretched across her lips. “You… would do that? You would all really help me that much?”
“Yeah! Why wouldn’t we?” Silver returned the smile.
“I love you too much not to help you.” Gold stated with a smile of her own.
Moon lifted the three mares and brought them right into her out stretched arms for a tight hug. “I promise, tomorrow I will make everything special for you three.”
Silver hugged her back. “I know you will.” Gold returned the embrace without a second thought and Heart also returned Moon's hug.
The rest of the day went on as normal, well as normal as you could get in an old castle with three mares and a futa. Dinner went pretty quiet, most conversations short and to the point, mostly to save things to talk about during their dates. Eventually it came time for the group to retire to their rooms, but when the mares began to make their way back to the cell, Moon stopped them.
“No, please. I don’t want you girls staying in that cell anymore.” Nightmare said, looking at the three. “Would you three like to have your own rooms?”
“That would be better than the cell, so I’m game for my own room.” Gold replied
“Excellent!” Moon cheered and pulled the mares down a different hall.
Silver gasped. “Wha? You’re giving us our own rooms?”
Heart was also surprised. “Well… that’s kind of you. But… where are these rooms?”
Moon giggled. “Well, I thought I’d let you pick them out.” She said as they rounded a few more corners, before coming to a junction of royal chambers, each door with a crest of the pony they once represented. “These belonged to the royal family over a thousand years ago. Each room was designed to specifically fit the inhabitant’s needs and element. Back then, there were many alicorns, now… there’s only five left in Equestria. Go on, pick one. It’ll be yours forever.”
Gold was the first to step forward and begin looking, walking half way down the hall before walking to a door on the right and opening it. Her eyes grew wide. “This room is just… Abso-friggin-lutely magnificent!” she exclaimed.
The room was one of the largest of the group of bed chambers. It had once belonged to an alicorn princess, named Golden Hourglass, the princess of time. It was elegantly designed with gold and light tan around the large four post bed in the center of the room. The bed was draped with tan curtains with gold flakes in the fabric. The silk sheets were also of a bright golden color.
Silver took off to choose one of her own, stumbling into one that made her jaw drop.
Inside, it wasn’t as big as Gold’s, but it was right for the smaller mare. This one, from what Moon said, once belonged to the princess of shadow, Silver Shade. The room was dark, mostly from being decorated in black. There were no windows and the only source of light, was a dark purple magic orb in the center of the stalagmite looking ceiling. The bed was about the lightest thing in the room, being decorated in almost all silver, save a few accents of purple here and there.
“Why can’t my room back in Canterlot look like this!?” Silver squealed, making her look like a cute teenaged school filly.
Heart took a quick look inside her sisters rooms. They looked amazing. Heart looked around and her eyes fell upon a door that seemed to be calling to her. She grasped the handle and pushed the door open.
Most of the bedroom was filled with books. They lined every wall, stretching up to the ceiling. Like Silver’s, the room was dark, lit only with a small lamp-like object. There was also a large desk, seemingly just thrown in there because it was sitting right in the middle. The bed wasn’t as decorated as Silver’s or Gold’s and it didn’t look as comfortable, like it wasn’t meant to be used at all. Heart looked around the room and she felt a weird feeling… like this room had never been used. With the others, she had felt like it had been lived in, but with this one… nothing. Heart turned back to Moon. “Any idea who lived in this one?” she asked.
Nightmare Moon choked back a sob as she gazed at the nearly empty room. Her eyes began to fill with tears. “T-t-t-that… w-was supposed to be my… s-sister’s.”
Silver and Gold were both too busy admiring their new rooms to pay attention to the conversation as they even showed each other their own.
“It was supposed to be…” Heart’s voice trailed off. The room didn’t look nearly as inviting to her now.
She sniffled. “H-her name was Platinum Star. She was the princess of compassion…” Moon looked away. “After I lost her… I couldn’t live with myself anymore… I changed… I did things I regret so terribly… The only sister I had… was taken from me… by the hands of… a disgusting stallion, who overpowered her by sheer strength…” The tears in her eyes slid down her cheeks and fell to the floor. “I-I watched him kill her… I was too late… I… snapped… and ripped him limb from limb… I was so consumed by grief and loneliness that when I felt those very emotions come from Luna… I-I took over her body and tried to force respect out of the ponies.”
A tear fell from Heart’s eye. She closed the door. “I’ll sleep in the cell, I can live with that. I just can’t watch you cry like that.”
“No… I’ll be fine… She would have wanted you to have it… She slept in my room with me most of the time anyway.” Moon sighed. “But now that I’ve told my story… I want you to know who I used to be… My real name is… Nirvana… Princess of emotion.”
Heart looked up into Nirvana’s tear filled eyes. “I just… don’t feel comfortable taking this room… N-Nirvana.” The new name was weird sounding in her mouth, but it was like a key fitting into a lock. They fit together perfectly. “It’s okay. The cell is just as nice.”
“Heart…” Nirvana wrapped her arms around Heart. “You act so much like Star that it hurts to look at you… But I do it anyway, because I love you. I want you to have it… Its incomplete and it being empty, leaves a hole in my heart.”
Heart looked back at the door. She felt it call to her again, more insistently. “Ok… I’ll have it.”
Nirvana smiled. “Then it’s yours, Sta-” She caught herself, tears forming in her eyes again. “I-I mean, Heart.”
Heart looked back up at Nirvana, her mind set. Her right ring finger glowed suddenly, revealing a ring. She pulled it off, and hurriedly checked behind her to see if Silver or Gold was coming. They weren’t. Heart pressed it into Nirvana’s hands. “I’ve been wearing this ring for over 8 years… To remind myself of a certain event. I want you to have it. Tomorrow, at our little breakfast date, I’ll tell you more. Now, make sure Gold or Silver doesn’t see this.”
She opened and closed her mouth several times, looking for the right response as she gazed at the ring made of pure platinum as it glistened in the light. “I-I… I don’t know… w-what to say…” Nirvana spoke past a lump in her throat.
“We can talk later. Tomorrow, at breakfast.” said Heart.
"I gotta say... I absolutely love my room." Gold stated before noticing the two mares. "Hey what's going on here? Is Moon okay, Heart?"
“I-I’m ok.” Nirvana assured, making sure to hide the ring.
“This room…” Heart gestured towards the door closest to the two of them. “It… was supposed to be… her sister’s…”
Silver shivered when she poked her head out of her door. “That’s a little creepy…”
“Silver, you chose the room that belonged to the princess of shadows. That’s creepy.” Nirvana stated. “This,” She gestured to Heart and the room she had chosen. “is beautiful… She reminds me so much of Star.”
"Wait... You mean that… that was your little sister’s... Oh gods..." Gold said as tears welled up in here eyes as she wrapped her arms around Nirvana. "Oh Moon... what you've been through is... far worse than my own past..." She said past sniffles that nearly turned to sobs.
“You don’t even know the whole story, Golden.” Nirvana whimpered.
“And I don't think you need to tell her. I don’t want bad memories being brought up.” To change the topic, Heart pointed at Gold’s room. “Who used to live in there?”
"Heart... I never told her my full story either." Gold replied. "But I would like to know who slept in my room before me."
“That,” She pointed at the room. “belonged to princess Golden Hourglass. She was the keeper and princess of time. We were good friends in our youth.”
“What about mine?” Silver asked.
“Yours was princess Silver Shade’s, keeper of shadows. She was known for her mischief. Surprising that you all found elements that fit you. I wonder… Yes this theory will have to be tested at some point in time…” Nirvana said half to herself.
‘A theory?’ thought Heart. ‘Wonder what that’s going to be...’ She cleared her throat. “I’m actually feeling pretty tired. You guys want some sleep now?”
“Yeah, actually. We’ve got a date tomorrow.” Silver chirped excitedly.
"Yeah, especially with everything that happened today in the dining hall." Gold said, rubbing her snout.
Silver looked away in embarrassment, but lucky for her, Nirvana didn’t notice.
“Ok. I hope you three sleep well.” Nirvana said. She then opened her arms and smiled. “But I want good night hugs first.”
Heart laughed and walked closer to Nirvana. “Goodnight, Moon.” she said, as she threw her arms around her.
Silver was right after Heart, throwing her shorter self around Nirvana’s shoulders. “Thank you. Goodnight, Moon.” She kissed her on the cheek, before letting go and dropping back to the floor.
Gold followed shortly after Silver, wrapping her arms around Nirvana and kissing her on the cheek. "Goodnight, Moon."
Nirvana blushed at the affection she received from the sisters. “Goodnight you three. I love you all. If you need me, I’m in Luna’s old chambers.” With that, the alicorn turned and left, though there seemed to be a trace of a slight skip with every step.
Heart watched her go, feeling a lot closer with her than she did before. She turned back to her sisters. “If I keep on getting feelings for her, then this plan is going to be hard as hell to do…” she sighed.
“How so? We’re going to the Crystal empire, are we not?” Silver questioned.
“We are, but it’s not Cadence we mainly need to convince of Moon’s innocence is it?” replied Heart. “Even if our mother does think of Moon as good after this, her pride, big-headedness… and loneliness... will get in the way… I’ve already said this, Celestia will ask one of us to stay behind with her.”
“I already said we’re sneaking there. Nopony left behind.”
“I know… But it’s not getting there that’s the problem… It’s coming back with all of us that’s the real barrier.”
Silver opened her mouth to argue, but stopped. “You’re right…”
Heart raised an eyebrow. “Sarcasm?”
She cocked her head to the side. “What?”
“I wouldn’t expect you to give up so easily… Especially when what we are talking about is the separation of the three of us.”
“It’s not that I’m giving up, Heart… I’m just… Stumped. Mother never separated us, because she knew what would happen if just one of us were taken away. We all have problems and without each other, those problems fester again. Trust me, I tried.”
‘Huh, that reminds me… I still haven’t told them about my past yet.’ thought Heart. ‘It can wait.’ Heart placed a hand on her younger sister’s shoulder. “I know… but if it comes to that, I’ve set things up so that I’ll always be with you. Even if mother for some reason, erases my memories…”
Silver reeled. “She would never do that! That would be a mistake worse than Moon had ever made in her entire life time!”
“It’s still a possibility.” Heart said. “But don’t worry, as long as you keep Moon safe, I’ll remember one day.”
“But… there has to be a better way.” Gold stated. “Nopony should have to sacrifice their memory for the sake of ensuring that the others can remain.”
“Gold’s right. We’re not the same without you.” Silver said as tears formed in her eyes.
Heart sighed. “There are only two things I truly fear in this world. You both know that one of them is the fear that we will never be together again. This hurts me a lot more than it hurts you two… But remember…” Heart smiled. “I never take risks, you two know that. I would never willingly give up my memories, unless I was completely sure that my plan would succeed.”
“What if she forces you to forget about us… I fear that she would force you to see us, me and Silver, as enemies, I don’t want that to happen.” Gold said, tears building up in her eyes.
A few tears were wiped away as Heart brought her hand across her eyes. “And neither do I. But, remember what I said before… Keep Moon safe, and one day, I’ll remember.”
“I… I’ll protect her with my life.” Gold replied. “And I will never forget.”
Heart laughed quietly. “Don’t protect Moon with your life… If you die… and I get my memory back… I’ll never forgive myself… So, protect Moon with all of your strength, and more.”
“I will… I will live… for Moon, for Silver and for you.” Gold said, pulling Heart into a tight embrace.
“But… what if she doesn’t ask that only one of us stays and she forces all of us to stay? Then wipes our memories? I don’t want to hate Moon again.” Silver whimpered. “Heart, this plan of yours to stay with her might backfire on all of us. I can’t lose any of you!”
"I have an idea that might work. You may not like it, but it will get mother off our backs." Gold stated.
“Anything would be better than losing Heart or Moon.”
"It's not the best of choices, but I think that if we can fake our deaths, we can be with Moon without worry."
Silver and Heart both stiffened. “Fake our deaths? But She’ll blame Moon!” Silver exclaimed. Then placed a hand on her chin as she thought. “Or maybe we could make it look like it was mother’s fault… To do that, we’ll need her to be angry enough and we could make it look like her magic disintegrated all of us, including Moon, while in truth, we will have teleported back here.”
"I was thinking timberwolf attack, something nopony could be blamed for."
“No, you see, with making it look like the princess of the sun killed her own children, while in front of the princess of love, after proving Moon’s love, she’ll regret everything. We’ll wait a week and by then, she’ll be emotionally broken, like Moon. I know it might be a little extreme, but its a lesson that needs to be given.” Silver explained. “I love mother, but her hatred goes too far.”
"I see what you are getting at. Tear her down emotionally by getting her to think she'd accidentally killed us, wait a while and go back and then go from there.
“Though, I think that we all need to be ready to get a back snapping hug and a jaw breaking punch from mother once we show ourselves.” Silver said with a weak laugh.
"Wouldn't Aunt Luna be there as well?" Gold asked. "Or would she be in her chambers?"
Silver shrugged. “I wouldn’t have the slightest idea. You know how… ‘active’ Luna is. She could be sleeping, or she could be ‘sleeping’.”
"It will work so long as we can get mother alone. We need something to create evidence of our deaths though."
“Well, disintegration or vaporization, leaves nothing behind.” Silver added. “I should know. The spells I first started teaching myself were mostly deconstructive spells. I also use illusion magic, so that could also help.”
"So there's no need for evidence." Gold implied. "Our disappearance after mothers rage is evidence enough."
Heart laughed. "She'll never fall for it. Our mother's been alive for much too long to be fooled by a simple disappearing act."
“You may be skilled in other sorts of magic, dear sister, but I’ve learned quite a lot about illusion spells.” Silver said with pride in her abilities. “So it won’t just be simply disappearing. Remember that time I broke a vase and used an illusion spell to make mother think you did it, Heart?”
Heart blinked. "That was you? Bitch. Received the scolding of my life for that."
“Even princesses aren’t perfect.” Silver added, attempting not to laugh at her sister. “But I think if mother were to get mad enough, I could make it look like her magic flared and vaporized us, while Heart, you teleport us away.”
"But this isn't a vase, this is actual living beings. Mother could still find us using magic, illusion spells don't counter against tracking spells."
“You know how bad her fits of anger can be. She doesn’t think twice about magic. It’s foolproof.”
“Once we're back here, mother cannot trace us back to this location.” Gold implied. “Tracking magic is stopped by the barrier and cannot be used inside.”
"You're playing with fire here... Toying with our mother's emotions like that? It's not wise."
“And you weren’t playing with fire!? Saying you would stay with mother and risk hating us!? I had a smidge of hate for you as soon as you had said that!” Silver screamed at her sister. “I’m not losing any of you! I’ll beat you until you can’t leave if I have to!”
Heart sighed. "I thought you two actually trusted me. I never take risks. I have put in place a few things which will ensure my plan will succeed. I would tell you... But if we all know, Mother might glean them from your thoughts."
“It's not that I don’t trust you, Heart… I don’t trust mother at this moment.” Silver said with a deep sigh. “I don’t want to lose you… Just because of mother’s mistake.”
"I know you don't... But I guess you won't trust my plan until I reveal all of it... Won't you?"
“I find it very hard.”
Heart gestured in the direction where Moon had left a few minutes ago. “I gave something to Moon, something I’ve been wearing for over 8 years. That something will restore my memories from the time I took it off, to the time to put it on. So, all of my memories will be restored, bar this conversation, and whatever happens tomorrow.” Heart took a breath and continued. “Even if mother wants all of us to stay, I won’t allow that. I know the one thing that she fears, and I will use it against her. Now, as long as you keep Moon safe, the object will remain safe, and in turn, my memories. All you have to do is give me the object. Also, with my memories gone, I’ll return to what I usually do. Study. And in time, I’ll get strong enough to hold my own against our mother if need be. Then, I’m sure, we can convince her to let us all go.”
“But that may take years!” Silver exclaimed.
“Well, the way I see it, we were all playing with fire and I knew I was, but I take my chances.” Gold said. “Either way, we have to figure something out.
"I already have figured something out." retorted Heart. "It's just that you two don't trust me enough. I'll be fine, just trust me on this."
“It’s not that we don’t trust you, we just don’t want to lose you for good if anything goes wrong.”Gold shot back. “Just because I said I’d protect Moon and Silver when you decided to go through with this did not mean that I would not protect you.”
“We’re not stopping you. If you mess up, it’s your fault. We’ll regret every second of not stopping you, but the truth is, you will have done it. And both me and Gold, in a way, will be just like Moon is now, having lost our own sister.”
“But I see that nothing we say is going to stop you, so I’m with Silver on this.”
“At least think of the damage you’ll do to us, before you go through with it.” Silver said in a dark tone. She then turned away and strode into her dark room, slamming the door behind her. Inside, nopony could hear her collapse to her knees and break down into tears as she crawled to her bed, climbing into it, where she eventually would cry herself to sleep.
Heart looked straight at Gold. "I've already thought this through. I know what it'll do to your emotions. Yours, Silver's, and Moon's. I don't want to do this anymore than you want to agree with it... But it has to be done."
Gold only glared at Heart before turning and heading to her room, slamming the door closed as well and throwing herself down onto the bed.
Heart looked at the doors which both had been slammed shut. Tears flowed from her eyes. She turned towards her own room and opened it. She walked into it and closed the door then sat on the floor against it, burying her face into her hands. "I'm sorry Silver. I'm sorry Gold... I'm sorry Nirvana." she whispered. She didn't have the strength to pull herself up, choosing instead to sleep on the floor, against the hard door.

                         The Dates                         
//-------------------------------------------------------//
The Dates
Morning came eventually as Celestia reluctantly raised the sun. Nirvana awoke in a rather good mood and sat up in her bed, stretching her stiff arms and wings, sighing as they popped. She smiled and pulled herself out of the bed and began to perform her morning routine, while at the same time, getting herself ready for the three dates she had that day.
Once she was satisfied with her appearance, Nirvana left the room with a pep in her step as she made for Heart’s room. She stopped in front of it, excited butterflies in her stomach, and reached up to knock a few times on it.
Heart jerked awake. 'Oh shit... I forgot. My date.' She got up quickly from the floor, brushed her hair quickly with her hands to make it look presentable and wiped her eyes slightly to remove any tears still there. ‘Oh shit… What should I wear?’ Heart was just wearing jeans and a t-shirt. She thought about putting on a dress, but with Nirvana right at the door, it would take too long. Heart took a deep breath, and opened the door.
“Hello, Heart.” Nirvana chirped. “I hope I’m not too early.”
"No, no. You're fine." replied Heart, resisting the urge to rub sleep from her eyes.
Nirvana, reading Heart’s emotions almost perfectly, stepped closer. “What’s wrong?” Her voice was full of concern.
"Just... Can we get some food first?" Heart asked. "I'll answer any of your questions then."
Nirvana sighed. “Very well. But we won’t be eating in the dining hall.” She turned and led the way.
Heart followed, her mind racing.
Nirvana led the mare through halls that Heart hadn’t seen before, or even taken care to notice until now. It looked to be designed for Luna to use, leading into her part of the castle. The final hall opened up into an observatory like room, only it was void of a telescope. The ceiling was transparent and was held up by a spiderweb of elegant beams that glistened with a silver light as the sunrise slowly made itself apparent in the dim candle light of the room. In the center, there was a wide table set for two, set also with an elegant meal, steaming with warmth.
“I always liked to watch the sunrise from here and… I kind of thought it would be a little romantic to have breakfast with you while it happened.” Nirvana said in a near whisper as she led Heart inside. “I readied the meal last night before I went to bed and my magic kept it constantly fresh and warm while we slept.
“This… looks amazing.” Heart said, gazing out at what Nirvana had set out.
Nirvana blushed. “I thought you might like it.” She led Heart to the table and pulled a chair out for her. “Have a seat.”
Heart sat, the chair feeling very comfortable under her.
Nirvana scooted Heart close to the table, before walking around the table to her own seat across from Heart, sitting in it and smiling. “I do hope you slept well. I would feel kind of bad for waking you if you didn’t.”
“I slept well enough.” said Heart. “Did you sleep well?”
“I slept wonderfully, knowing that you three weren’t sleeping in that cell that I, for some dreadful reason, left you all in after what I did.” Nirvana said in a bland tone as she played with her food a little, poking at it with her fork. “But I couldn’t help noticing the distress in your emotions.”
“Yeah… It’s just… what’s going to happen when we meet Celestia… Whatever happens… somepony is going to get hurt.” said Heart, sighing deeply.
"I wish there was some way I could help, but I’m the one being protected.” Nirvana said and looked away. “I rather dislike, no… I hate seeing lonesome emotions. They make me act irrationally. But… Can you feel it? Your mother’s anger? I can… It saddens me. We were once fillyhood friends. Even now she thinks the real me is dead, as well as the other alicorns that once ruled over Equestria as well. I wonder what sort of pain would course through her mind if she knew that she hated her best friend for a thousand years...”
"Yeah..." Heart agreed. "Do you still have that ring I gave you?"
“Yes.” She pulled out the ring. “What’s it for? I mean, other than making me blush like a filly when you gave it to me.”
"That ring... Holds all of my memories... From 8 years ago up until yesterday."
Nirvana looked at the ring. “But… Why give me this? I-it makes no sense to me.”
"Nirvana... How much do you trust me?"
“Enough to love you.”
"Then... please listen..."
And Heart told her everything. The entire plan that she had thought of. When she had finished, she added, "I know that I'll mess with your emotions, along with Silver and Golds' as well... But... I... I love you, Nirvana... I would never try to hurt you." Heart took a breath. "If the plan works, then you will have all of us, and our mother will love you as well. This is the only thing we can do..."
“I… But… You just…” Nirvana looked like she was about to cry again, but she quickly forced back the sobs. “I love you too, Heart… I will cherish this ring and the memories it contains.”
"Keep it safe... Ok? Without it... I'll never love you again..." A few tears fell from Heart's eyes.
“I’ll never let it out of my sight.” Nirvana confirmed, a tear of her own sliding down her cheek.
"Thank you..." Heart whispered. "Now... Let's eat something."
“Y-yes…” Nirvana said weakly and began slowly eating.
The two ate in silence for a while, until Nirvana asked something that caught Heart off guard. “How much do you ‘love’ your sisters?” She asked, letting ‘love’ roll off her tongue in an erotic tone. She batted her eyes innocently.
"What e-exactly do you mean by... Love?" asked Heart, blushing.
“Well…” Nirvana blushed. “I just thought since you all have feelings for me… What kind of feelings would you three have for each other?” She licked her lips, emphasising her point.
"Uhhhh... Well..." Heart blushed. "I don't know about the others, but I love them as sisters."
“Oh, come now… I know there’s more than that. After all, you three like mares.” Nirvana leaned closer. “Don’t hide it. I’ll just find it myself. I’m the princess of emotion, remember?”
Heart blushed. "I really only think of my sisters as just that, my sisters."
Nirvana looked slightly disappointed. “Oh… I just thought that maybe… with the way you three love me… that you would love each other like that… I mean… I’m only one pony here.”
"That's just what I think. Maybe Silver or Gold will have other thoughts." suggested Heart. "I understand that you want us all to love each other, but... With my plan, I don't want to hurt anypony more than I have to..."
Nirvana looked away. “That’s true, I guess…”
Heart reached across and grabbed Nirvana's hand. "I will come back. I promise."
Nirvana squeezed the welcomed hand. “I know… But I’m scared.” She looked away. “C-can we please find something nice to talk about now? I don’t like being sad on a date.”
“Sure.”
By now, both Golden Eye and Silver Soul had woken and were now eating breakfast together in the dining hall. The food had been already laid out and was steaming with warmth, like it had just been cooked.
“So where do ya think Moon took Heart?” Silver asked Gold, before taking a bite.
"Dunno, all I know is that Heart is going to be fine. You know that just as well as I do." Gold replied.
“Yeah, I was just wondering.” Silver giggled suddenly. “What do you think Moon is gonna do with us on our dates?”
Good smiled. "I don't know, but I do know that it's going to be worth while." she stated.
Silver sighed happily and leaned back in her chair. “I hope she gives me a back rub. Ohhhh…. Now that would be worth while.”
"A full on massage, been dying for one since our last visit to Ponyville." Gold said.
“No! You will not get a better treatment than me, if I’m not asking for too much out of Moon!” Silver cried.
"Oh it was just a suggestion, but I wasn't lying when I said I've been dying for one, but I think a nice romantic lunch will do just fine for me."
“Knowing Heart, she probably had the same thought.” Silver giggled. “But I like physical attention more than simple dinners and small talk. If you can cook and work the knots out of my back every night, you’re the perfect one for me. So far Moon can cook, so…” Silver smiled cutely. “I’m a very ‘needy’ princess, don’t you think?”
Gold giggled lightly. "You can't honestly think that we don't have needs ourselves, Moon, Heart, and I."
Silver pouted, making herself even cuter. “But I’m the cute one! I’m attention hungry!”
This only served to make Gold giggle even more. "You look so cute when you get all pouty like that, you know that?" She said. "But who knows, we might get intimate, not sexual, just going as far as kissing under the sun and what not."
“You and your romance fantasies. I like fun. I just wonder if Moon does too.” Silver giggled.
"And what of my romance fantasies?" Gold playfully shot back.
“You may have dirt on me about my drinking, but I found those romance novels you try to hide.” Silver replied with a smug grin.
"You wouldn't..." Gold said, eyes wide with shock.
“You want Moon to be your rebellious charming savior. Oh, the things I could tell Heart and Moon.”
"Don't make me send mother a letter about your drinking habit." Gold teased.
“Then I’ll send a multiply letter to everypony that knows you personally.” Silver shot back with an almost evil grin.
'Damn, she got me there.' Gold thought to herself. "So um... Remember the hare that came outta nowhere?"
Silver’s smug glare faltered as the memory came back. She nearly burst into laughter then and there. “Y-yes. What about it?”
"The only reason he scared me is cause he caught me 'with my pants down' so to speak."
Silver burst into laughter and fell backwards in her chair, the back of it landing on the floor, but it didn’t stop her from laughing like a hyena. “I-it makes…. it even worse… b-because of the… saying you used!” Silver cried past her fits of giggles. “Oh Gods! I couldn’t help but think of you as you are now, getting caught with your pants down!”
"When did you get so naughty, Silver?" Gold asked.
“Since I became a lesbian, Gold.” Silver retorted as her helpless laughter died down, leaving her panting on the floor.
"And why would you imagine me with my pants down as I am now?" Gold asked, keeping a smile on her face.
She blushed and giggled cutely. “Because I’m your naughty little lesbian zebra sister.”
Gold giggled again. "And?"
Silver teleported to where she was on her hands and knees on the table, facing Gold. She gave her eldest sister needy half lidded eyes as she licked her lips. “And this…” She leaned forward and kissed Gold fully on the lips.
The pegasus was completely caught off guard by the kiss, her eyes wide with surprise. Eventually Gold leaned into the kiss, deepening the passion between the two.
She crawled off the table and into Gold’s lap, where she straddled the mare’s waist, wrapping her arms around Golds neck. She tilted her head to the side and brushed her tongue against her sister’s lips, wanting to explore Gold’s mouth.
Gold opened her mouth and met Silver’s tongue with her own in a battle for dominance.
The zebra moaned softly as she frenched her sister, every bit of passion poured into the kiss. She never wanted it to end. It was so good and Gold was such a good kisser. It made a shiver of excitement run down her back.
Gold began running her hands along Silver’s back while she continued to tongue her sister’s mouth, ruffling the silk like fur on her back.
Silver moaned louder at the touch. She pushed deeper into the kiss, pressing her smaller body against Gold’s firm, muscular, feminine form. She let her hands grope at the tender muscles along her sides, feeling her sister shiver at her intimate touch.
A furnace of need burned in Silver’s loins. She wanted it, needed to be pleasured, but she didn’t want to go through with it, not yet. She settled for showing all of her affection though hungrily sucking Gold’s tongue as it invaded her maw again and again.
Gold moaned into the kiss as her youngest sister lightly massaged at her sides. She then began lowering her hands from Silvers back and began lightly tracing her hands down to the zebra's flanks.
Silver squeaked and broke the kiss, panting for breath. She had to hold her hand against Gold’s shoulder to keep herself from collapsing back onto her sister, who was now grabbing at her ass. “G-Gold…” She was blushing deeply. “I-I can’t… I want to, I really do, but… I just…”
Gold whimpered as she looked at her sister with pleading eyes, pulling her hands away from Silver’s ass.
“I-I’m sorry, Gold… I just can’t… N-not yet…”
"What about later?" Gold asked in a pleading tone.
Silver giggled inwardly, unable to help noticing that Gold looked almost as cute as she did at the moment. She blushed and looked away. “M-maybe…”
Gold's ears drooped, giving a saddened look. "Okay."
“I’m really sorry, but… I-I’m not ready… yet.” Silver said, giving the last word as a slight hope for her eldest sister.
The pegasi's ears perked up a bit. "I-I understand." Gold said and sighed.
She kissed Gold again. “Even if it doesn’t happen later… There’s still another day.”
This brought a small smile to Gold's lips. "Okay."
“But, for old times sake… Let’s keep this a secret and forget about the dirt we hold over each other’s heads.” Silver whispered.
"Okay." replied Gold.
“Until then, I think I’ll finish my breakfast.” She said and turned around in Gold’s lap, where her cute butt was now facing the pegasus. She lifted her plate in her magic and brought it over to her, beginning to eat again.
She couldn’t help but blush at how she might be teasing Gold at the moment, but she just continued to sit in her horny sister’s lap, most likely letting Gold eye hump her. She didn’t care though.
"Um... I-I kinda can't get to my plate." Gold stammered for some odd reason.
If Silver had wanted to ‘do it’ yet, she might have said something along the lines of ‘Your plates right in front of you. Eat up, big sis.’ Instead she lifted Gold a fork full of food and fed her one bite at a time. Silver really didn’t want to get up yet.
Gold wasn't sure why Silver began feeding her, but she just couldn't help but go with it, taking each bite and savouring the taste of each and every one.
As soon as both plates were clean, Silver leaned back onto Gold and nuzzled her chin with affection. “I love you, Golden. You and Moon.”
Gold's eyes filled with tears at what she had just heard and she threw her arms around her sister. "I-I love you too, Silver." She said past sniffles and tears of sudden joy.
Silver tilted her head up and kissed Gold again, gently wrapping her arm around the pegasi’s head to keep her steady.
Little did the two sisters know, Heart and Moon had finished with their date and were now looking for the others.
“I would think that they’d be in the dining hall.” Nirvana stated. “I set up breakfast for them in there.”
“Oh yeah." Heart exclaimed. “They’d both be eating right about now.”
They set off in the direction of the dining hall, while making some small talk, mostly Nirvana talking about the architecture of the room they had just been eating in. They were dead in the middle of the conversation when they walked into the dining hall. Nothing could have prepared them for what they saw next.
In one of the chairs, in front of two empty plates, kissing, was Silver Soul and Golden Eye.
Heart and Nirvana froze, unable to comprehend exactly what they had walked in on. Their jaws had dropped almost to the floor in shock. Heart was the first to recover, the kissing pair still hadn’t noticed their arrival. “So… I guess Gold and Silver do have other thoughts after all.”
Nirvana shook the shock from her head. “Indeed…” Was all she could manage at the moment as she continued to watch the arousing sight. “P-perhaps I should… umm… g-go and get things ready for mine and Gold’s date.” With that, Nirvana hurried out, constantly trying to hide something that would normally be quite obvious.
Heart couldn’t move. She just stood, watching her sisters make out. ‘Ten seconds… Ten seconds, and if they haven’t noticed me, I’ll… w-what should I do?! Leave? Announce my arrival?’
Silver broke the kiss with Gold to look her in the eyes with a warm smile, but it slowly shrank when she caught sight of the pony she least wanted to see at the moment in the corner of her eye. “Gold… Don’t look to your left. Somepony we know very well is in this room, right now, and just caught us kissing.”
Heart blushed and slowly started to back away, knowing that she had ruined this moment.
"What do you mean? They couldn't ha-..." Gold froze as she saw who Silver had meant to the left of her.
Silver winced. “Told you not to look…”
‘Oh shit, Heart… think of something!’ The voice in Heart’s head instructed. She froze again, unable to think of anything. The silence lasted an age, as Heart stared at her two sisters.
Silver finally broke the silence. She swore she could literally hear it shatter when she did. “S-so… um… H-how was your date?”
Heart’s mouth opened, but nothing came out. Then, she started laughing. It wasn’t cruel laughter, more like friendly, joking laughter.
Silver cocked her head to the side. “What’s so funny?”
Heart stopped laughing and took a few breaths to steady herself. “Nothing at all. I’m just really happy for you two.”
Silver felt like reality had just dropped a rock on her head. “Y-you’re not upset?”
“Upset? Of course not.” Heart said, giggling slightly. “I may not be the princess of emotions like Moon, but I can feel love that strong, Silver.”
Silver face-palmed. ‘Of course. Heart’s element has always been love.’
Gold’s face went a deep crimson at what Heart just said, making her speechless.
‘I don’t think they’ve realised what this means for my plan.’ Heart thought. She cleared her throat. “Moon asked me how much I loved you two… as like, more than sisters. I thought of you as just sisters, but you should have seen how happy Moon was when we walked in together.”
“She was… happy? At seeing me and Gold like this?”
“She tried to hide it, but her love and happiness was pretty obvious.” Heart said. “She wants us to all love one another as we love her. She’s only one pony after all.”
It was Silver’s turn to be shocked into silence.
"Y-you mean that... Moon wanted us to love each other... The way Silver and I do now?" Gold asked, her blush deepening.
“Yeah. I guess that’s what she wanted. But we didn’t expect this to happen that fast.”
"Well... I-I guess that makes Moon even happier... Seeing us like this." Gold said.
Heart giggled. “It did. She’s setting up lunch with you Gold. You might want to get ready for her.”
“W-well, I think I’ll go to the library and see about some spell books.” Silver stated, slowly climbing off of Gold and looking shyly away from her Heart.
"Hey, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, Silver." consoled Heart. "You should never be embarrassed because of who you love."
"We just d-didn't think that... Well... Ummm..." Gold stammered, unable to continue because she was still so embarrassed at the fact that the two of them had been caught.
Heart laughed again. "Next time, if you want some privacy, maybe one of your own rooms would be better."
"R-right... Well... I should... Ummm... go and get ready, yeah that's what I need to do. So… I'll... go do that." Gold said as she headed down the corridor to her room, leaving Heart alone with Silver.
Silver blushed. Being left alone with the sibling that caught her wasn’t exactly planned. “I thought you would be mad at us if you caught us like that. I mean, I know I’m not biologically related to you two, but we’re still sisters.”
"As I said... I'm happy for you. You found somepony you want to be with, and I respect your choice." replied Heart.
“You’d be the first…” Silver muttered under her breath, then looked back up at Heart. “Thanks, sis. Did you want to come to the library with me? I found a shortcut yesterday when I was exploring.”
Heart thought about it for a few seconds. "Sure, why not?" she said.
“Great. I thought you might.” Silver led Heart out of the dining hall and down a corridor that would take them back to the cell, but she stopped in the middle of the corridor. She walked over to the wall to the left and firmly leaned on it. There was a sharp click, before a portion of the wall that Silver was leaning against sunk in then pivoted open. “There’s secret tunnels and doors all over the place. They’re pretty difficult to find, but you’ll never want to forget where they’re at.”
"That's really cool." said Heart. "So... This one leads to the library?"
“Yeah.” Silver smiled. “I found one in my room this morning that led to this freaky shadow magic generator. I was guessing it was what recharged Silver Shade when she used too much of her magic.”
"I wonder if all the rooms have these secret passageways." Heart thought aloud. "It would be pretty cool to find what's hidden here."
Silver began leading Heart through the hidden hall. As they walked deeper, the door closed behind them, hiding it again. “I was coming to the library to see if the magic can be harnessed or if you have to be at a certain level of magic to use it, cuz I’m pretty sure the other rooms have generators alike.”
"If you're right, then me and Gold have to find our generators soon. They could prove invaluable to us."
“Yeah. That’s what I was thinking.” Silver replied with a nod. “I’m just glad I have my old study-buddy to help me.” She said in a cute tone, playfully nudging Heart.
Heart giggled. "Yeah... I remember how long we looked over the books in Canterlot. I'm pretty sure we were close to reading them all."
Silver smiled again. “This library is bigger.”
Heart clapped her hands together. "Then let's get studying."
“I thought you might say that.” With that, Silver pushed open a panel at the end of the hall, before walking into the massive library, taking in the restored, yet slightly dusty sight.
Heart followed immediately after. "Holy shit..." she murmured as the library came into view. "Look at all these books..."
“Heart, you’re the second pony I know that can get turned on by books.” Silver giggled as she strode into the massive room.
"I am not turned on by books!" Heart retorted. "I just love reading."
Silver would have had a come back, but her mind was too busy working out where to start looking for the books they would need. She placed a finger on her chin as her eyes scanned over the many sections of books. “Hmm… Where to start…”
Heart was looking around as well. "You know what? I actually doubt that there are books on those generators in here." Heart said after a while. "I mean, they were most likely built by the alicorns that needed them. I'm pretty sure mother doesn't have one..."
“I wasn’t looking for a book on the generators themselves, but the type of magic they hold.” The zebra mare replied with a shake of her head. “There wouldn’t be a book on them, not with how well they’re hidden.” She looked up to the second level of the library and used her magic to float herself up to it. “If only we could find an area labeled specifically for magic.”
Heart levitated herself up as well. "You would think that the magic contained in those generators would match the magic of the alicorn who lived in that room, right?"
“Yeah… I’m thinking with how I’m mostly skilled in illusions and chaotic spells, that shadow magic would link pretty well…” Silver said with a thoughtful look. “I just need something to confirm it, so I don’t blow myself up with dark matter.”
Heart laughed. "Imagine if I exploded with the amount of love I would get from the generator filled with compassion."
“I’ll tell you this, Chrysalis would be here in a flash.” Silver giggled.
Heart giggled as well. "Yeah. It would be like a massive feast for her."
“Oh Gods. That would be a sight.” She laughed, but stopped suddenly when something caught her eye. She looked towards it to find a book just lying there on the floor. Why hadn’t she noticed it before. Silver knelt down and picked it up. It had a fair share of dust across its cover, making it hard to read the title. Wiping it clean she read the title. It said ‘Ancient magic: A young alicorn’s guide’. “That was the biggest stroke of luck I’ve ever had in my life… Besides becoming a prince, well… princess.”
"Whatcha find, Silver?" called Heart from near one of the bookshelves that rose to nearly the ceiling.
“There was a book just sitting here that’s about ancient alicorn magic.” Silver called back. “I wonder if it’s one aunt Twilight found on her last visit here.”
Heart floated over to Silver and dropped down next to her. "Huh... I wonder how we missed this."
“Hay, don’t feel bad. I miss things all the damn time. It gets on my nerves, but I’m used to it.”
"Whatever. Let's have a look at it now we've actually found it." said Heart.
Silver held up the book she had found. It was rather large, so it was a little bit of an effort to lift it up to eye level. “This should explain the magic basics for an alicorn. Considering we both learned magic from an alicorn, we should be able to work out how to use the magic from the generators.”
"That's cool... But I guess that Gold can't use these generators." suggested Heart. "She's only a pegasus after all."
“I wouldn’t jump to conclusions, Heart. Alicorn magic is different.” Silver said as she walked towards a desk to set it down on. “From what mother said, an alicorn is a mixture of all three pony types, so their advanced spells are synced with all three sides.”
"So... Gold could use that magic if she knew how to channel it?" asked Heart.
“If my theory is correct,” Silver dropped the large book onto the desk. “Yes.”
Meanwhile, a certain giddy alicorn almost skipped down the corridor towards Golden Eye’s room. Her mood was only amplified from what she had caught her two admirers doing with each other.
She approached Gold’s door and knocked on it, an excited smile on her face. “Gold? Are you ready?”
The door opened to reveal Golden Eye wearing a bright golden dress that she had found. The color perfectly matched her eyes. "How do I look?"
Nirvana’s mouth went dry as her eyes widened. “B-… beautiful…”
"So what are we waiting for? We've got a date to go on." Gold said happily.
The alicorn blushed. “Y-yes, of course.” Nirvana giggled. and led Gold down the corridor “But we won’t be eating in the dining hall.”
Gold stepped out of her room and closed the door behind her, then followed Nirvana. "I have a feeling that I am going to love where we are going." She said excitedly.
“I do so hope that you do.” Nirvana chirped as she led Gold through several confusing halls, before coming to a large double door. “I hope you like picnics, Gold. I set us something nice in the gardens.” She then pushed open the doors to reveal a luscious garden of exotic flowers, scents from the flowers mixing into an almost over sweet aroma that would nearly make anypony smile.
"Oh, Moon... It's absolutely marvelous." Gold stated with a wide smile on her lips.
“I-it’s Nirvana… My real name… i-is Nirvana.” Nirvana said in a near whisper as she blushed from the compliment.
"Nirvana... That's a beautiful name you have." Gold complimented. "Although now that I know your real name, you remind me of somepony that mother taught me about."
“I’m the princess of emotion.” Nirvana replied. “I and Celestia were fillyhood friends.”
Gold gasped "Oh... Oh dear… if mother had known…"
“She thinks Nirvana is dead, along with my other fellow princesses. All she knows of me is… Nightmare Moon, but even that name was filled with pained emotions. Silver figured that out.” Nirvana’s mood saddened a little, but she shook it off. “No, I have cried too much. I even cried during my date with Heart. Enough is enough. I am here to make this day special for you three. I refuse to let my own emotions ruin this.”
"Nirvana, being with you is all I need for my day to be special." Gold said. "And I don't want to see you cry anymore, I don't like seeing anypony cry."
Nirvana spun around and yanked Gold into a tight embrace. “I love you, Golden Eye.”
Gold wrapped her arms around Nirvana and returned the embrace and said. "I love you too, Nirvana." Before leaning in and planting a passionate kiss on her lips.
She closed her eyes and accepted the show of affection from Gold, pulling her closer.
The two stayed like this for a minute or two before Gold broke the kiss. "Nirvana, if things don't go as planned and mother forces all three of us, my sisters and I, to stay. I want you to keep my armor, cherish it, keep it safe, and I will never forget. I will go through Tartarus and back just to be with you."
Nirvana could no longer hold it back, the tears poured from her eyes and dripped from her chin. She couldn’t even think of the right words to respond
Gold lifted Nirvana's eyes to her own, the emotion in her eyes was just too much. She pulled Nirvana into another comforting embrace. "I-I'm sorry… but I just don't want to lose you or my sisters. I love all three of you as much as you saw earlier with me and Silver." Gold said, a few tears of her own welling up.
The alicorn sniffled and wiped the tears out of her eyes, before wiping the tears out of Gold’s own. “No more tears. I don’t want to see them anymore. No more sorrow. Let us just enjoy what I did for you.”
"Y-yes, let's." Gold said, a smile on her lips. "And no more pain, just love." She added
“Agreed…” Nirvana returned the smile, before leading Gold through the gardens to a dark purple sheet in the middle of it. An elegant basket, most likely filled with food, sat on the sheet as well as some plates, silverware, and a lightly burning candle. “I hope you like it. I heard that you liked the outdoors.”
"Oh, I absolutely love it, I've been one with the outdoors since my grandfather and I had our first camping trip." Gold stated.
“Excellent!” Nirvana cheered. She grabbed Gold’s wrist and pulled her over to the picnic, sitting down on it. The alicorn gave a giddy smile as her magic pulled out a bottle of aged wine and a simple, but very lean and well made sub sandwich, which she split perfectly down the center and gave one half to Gold, while taking the other for herself.
The lunch went by silently, leaving nothing but the sound of nature, until Gold spoke, "So, is there anything else that you'd like to know about me?" She asked, ready and willing to answer anything that Nirvana might ask.
Nirvana took a moment to swallow her food, before speaking. “What is Celestia like now? And how does she treat you?” She asked. “I’m sure with how she raised you, it would determine your personality.”
"Mother was always a very caring pony. She always treated us like we were all she had left in this world, I mean she knows that she still has Luna, but it showed how much she cared for the ones she loved as family. And as a lover, that's why I care so much for you and my sisters. It’s because of the love I have for the three of you, yes Silver may be my sister, but I see her as so much more. I love her and Heart as much as I love you."
“Interesting…” She looked away, seeming momentarily lost in thought. “Celestia still hasn’t changed… Oh, my dearest friend, Celestia… How I wish things had turned out differently…”
"But we can show her who you truly are, who you are now. This is you, Nirvana, princess of emotion and friend of Celestia." Gold stated wrapping her arms around the alicorn in a caring, passionate and loving embrace.
“She won’t believe me… I searched for a way to make myself look like I once did, but… I cannot.” Nirvana whimpered. “I’ll always look like this, the monster my wrath cursed me to look like. The Gods are cruel to me!”
"Nirvana, you are not a monster, you are extremely beautiful no matter what others think you are, you are beautiful in the eyes of the ones who see you for who you truly are. You want ponies to see the truth and my sisters and I, with Cadence's help, can help you show your true self." Gold said calmly.
“I know, but I will always bare the cursed fruit of my past wrongs.” Nirvana gestured to her face. “This. This is what Celestia will see, not the friend she grew up with.”
"If we can get her to see past your mistakes and who she thinks you to be, she will see the friend she grew up with on the inside." Gold said gesturing to Nirvana's heart and then her mind. "She will see that friend in your heart and in your mind."
“But… I just don’t want to look like this anymore… I want to be Nirvana again. I’m sick of being Nightmare Moon.” Nirvana said weakly.
"But you are Nirvana, all you have to do is look deep into your heart and memories that you have before you became Nightmare Moon and you will see that you always were Nirvana."
“I know who I am on the inside, Gold, but that doesn’t change who I am on the outside. I’m cursed to be Nightmare Moon. I’ll always be Nirvana, just… Not in the way I want to be...”
"But it can reflect who you are on the inside if you let your inner self show." Gold said, placing a hand on Nirvana's shoulder.
“Are you not listening!? I’m doomed to be seen as a monster by all but you and your sisters, whom even witnessed what a monster I can be! I may not be a monster in your eyes, Gold, but the moment Celestia sees me…” Nirvana looked away. “She will try to kill me.”
"Then we can run away. You, me and my sisters." Gold said. "We can leave this life behind and start anew. You won't have to worry about my mother anymore."
“No.” Nirvana said quickly. “That would only make things worse. That would only make my demise certain.” She shook her head. “No, I cannot do that.”
Gold suddenly realized how stupid she was being, mentally slapping herself. "Nirvana… I-I… I'm so sorry… I wasn't listening to my self-stupidity."
Nirvana suddenly backhanded Gold, though not hard, but it hurt Nirvana so much more. “Never call yourself stupid.”
Gold buckled over, begging for forgiveness, nearly sobbing. "I never m-meant… to bring you any pain… I-I'm just... S-so sorry... I just wasn't... I wasn't l-listening to myself… I'll n-never forgive myself... if you… c-cannot forgive me."
Nirvana squeezed Gold against her. “I never held anything against you, Gold. I never will. I love you with all of my heart and that will never change.” She pulled the weeping mare off of her and gazed into her eyes. “Now dry those tears. I don’t want to see anymore for the rest of our date. Tears don’t deserve to touch your face. I simply forbid it until they are tears of joy.”
Gold dried her eyes and smiled, hugging Nirvana tightly. "I'll hold back my tears for as long as I possibly can."
“That’s a good girl.” Nirvana said playfully with a small smile, before pulling away from the hug and sharing a kiss with the mare.
“Here!” Silver suddenly shouted, slamming her finger down beneath a specific passage. It was written beneath a runic spell circle that shown the original symbols for the elements of harmony. “This is what we’re looking for! Element selection!”
“Element selection? The hell’s that?” yelled Heart, who had been walking around aimlessly for the past few minutes.
“It tells about how an alicorn selects and harnesses an element of their choice, but the element must come easy to them and it must sync with the wielder's personality.” Silver explained, summing up the passage. “If we can figure out what parts of alicorn magic works with us, then syncing with the rest of it would be a downhill stride.”
“Well… the shadow magic would fit with you and the compassion magic would fit with me… But if Gold could use magic, I doubt that time is her element…”
“You might be right… Though her emotions flip-flop like the sands of time. She might not be able to use it very well at first, but it might be the element that takes to her personality.” Silver said, reading further. “It says here, that a base of what type of pony the alicorn originally was determines the way the body takes to the element at first. I’m willing to bet that if we can separate the streams of the three types of magic, then we can slowly feed alicorn magic into our bodies and sync with it.”
“Yeah… I think you’re right…” Heart looked down at the book that Silver had found. “We should take this with us. Hopefully Gold and Moon are done with their date and we can share what we know.” Heart looked back down at the book again. “I wonder… does the book have a list of these alicorn elements?”
“I doubt it… But you can look if you want.” Silver said, stepping out of the way, so Heart could take a look.
Heart quickly flicked through the book, but with no surprise to her, there was no list of elements. She was about to close the book, but something caught her eye. It didn’t look like part of the book at all. A small folded up piece of parchment was caught in the middle of two pages. “What’s this?” Heart pulled it out and opened it. There weren’t any words on it, just a highly detailed illustration of an alicorn… Something about the pony in the drawing felt… familiar.. “Hey, Silver. What do you think this is?”
Silver came over and took a look, but she was just as confused as Heart. “I… I dunno… We could show it to Moon. She might know.”
“Yeah… I wonder who drew this though… It’s so lifelike…” Heart pondered. “Think we can find a name or something for this? This would obviously have been signed or something.”
The young mares, try as they might, couldn’t find even the slightest detail that would name the artist, but it looked so familiar, yet so alien. It made Silver’s head hurt.
Silver threw her hands up into the air in frustration. “Ugh! It’s no use! Let’s just take the whole book and the drawing with us and go find Moon and Gold. Their date should be done by now.”
“I just want to look at this drawing for a bit more… I swear I know this alicorn… If you want, you can head back to the dining hall with the book and I’ll meet you there in a bit.” said Heart, still gazing at the picture.
“Fine, just don’t forget where the shortcut is. I don’t know this castle well enough to find you if you get lost.” Silver said as she lifted the book in her magic and made her way out of the library and back through the hidden passage.
The hidden passage closed, leaving Heart alone in the library. Heart ran her fingers over the drawing, feeling the old parchment on which it had been drawn. “Come on, I know there must be some sort of name on this. Maybe not the artist… maybe the actual alicorn…”
Upon closer examination, the coloration of the pony seemed to be black and white. Her mane and tail were long and floated like Nirvana’s and her eyes were as white as silver’s fur with slits for pupils, though what really attracted her attention, was the cutie mark. It was a tribal like black and white heart, colors separated down the center. Each side had a folded wing sprouted from the side, one feathered, the other bat like. At the top of the heart was a golden treyarch.
Only one name came to Heart’s mind when she realized what the cutie mark meant. “Nirvana…” She whispered, eyes growing wide. But it wasn’t the Nirvana she knew. There were differences, both major and minor to the alicorn’s appearance. “This- This is what you used to look like… If you looked like this in front of mother… then...” Suddenly her mind raced, forming a plan. It was nearly foolproof, just one thing. Her original plan would still have to take effect. She would have to lose her memories of everything about Nirvana. But if the new plan succeeded…
Heart stood up, taking the drawing with her. She needed to find Nirvana and Gold. She opened up the secret passage, and stepped into it, looking at the library once more before the passage closed.

//-------------------------------------------------------//
The Generators of Magic
By now, Gold and Nirvana were making their way back from the gardens, both were laughing at some of the things that Gold had told about the adventures of Celestia’s sons, including the funny moments on the way to the castle.
“You three are so funny together. I wish I could have seen some of these play out.” Nirvana said through giggles.
"Oh you would have laughed so much more had you actually seen these events play out from beginning to end." Gold stated past her own giggles.
“I bet I would have.” Nirvana laughed. “Silver seems so accident prone, though.”
"Don't tell her that though. She'll go off on me for it." Gold said. "Now I did go off verbally at Silver when the cotton tail scared me, but that’s because she laughed at me when I jumped back and fell on my rump."
“Apologies, but I would have laughed myself. That is kind of funny.”
"It's okay, even I've started laughing at that memory." Gold said, giggling lightly.
As the two nearly reached the dining hall, a panel in the wall opened and out walks Silver, right into the path of Golden, who walked straight into the smaller mare, knocking her off her hooves. The fall made her lose focus on the magic that held the large book and it dropped straight between her legs, slamming into her cunt. The scream could be heard nearly from all over the castle as pain worse than any time Silver had been struck in the balls when she had been a stallion shot through her body.
Heart, who was still in the passageway, heard the scream. “Is that Silver?” she said to herself, sprinting towards the noise. She pushed open the passageway, and stopped dead in her tracks as she came across Silver lying on the ground and Nirvana and Gold standing with their mouths open. “The hell happened?”
“NOT IMPORTANT! GET THIS THING OFF OF ME!” Silver screamed.
Gold hurried over to lift the book off of Silver so that she could pull herself out from beneath it.
Silver moaned loudly in pain, holding her hands between her legs as she rolled onto her side, tears from the intense pain spilling from her eyes. “I thought getting hit in the balls hurt… I will never look at a mare the same way again.” She whimpered.
"I'm so sorry Silver, I didn't mean to run into you!" Gold quickly exclaimed. "I didn't mean for any of this to happen!"
“I-it’s fine, Gold.” Silver winced as she tried to move. “Oh, Gods, it hurts!”
“Do not just stand there. She’s in pain and on the floor.” Nirvana said to the two other sisters. “Gold, grab the book. Heart, there should be a magic enhanced cold pack in the dining hall.” She ordered as she lifted Silver gently in her magic.
Gold walked over and picked the book up, it was a bit heavy, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.
Heart looked around for the cold pack, finding it within a few seconds and levitating it over to Nirvana.
Nirvana gently held Silver with her back against the alicorn as she just as gently held the cold pack against her aching crotch. She began walking her to her room.
Silver whimpered the whole way. It hurt, worse than when Nirvana had taken her virginity, but she was glad for the cold pack that numbed the pain slightly. “T-thanks Moon…”
“Please… Call me by my real name… Nirvana.” She said with a smile.
“Thanks Nirvana.” Silver corrected herself. ‘Where have I heard that name before?’
Heart and Gold were still in the dining hall, Gold feeling extremely guilty. Heart turned to Gold. “So, how did your date go?” she asked, in an attempt to get Gold’s mind off what had just happened.
"It was…" Gold stopped to think. "It went well." She partially lied.
“OK Gold… I need some specifics. Did she ever mention Nirvana or Nightmare Moon at all?” Heart asked.
"C-can't we talk about this later?"
“No. I need the answer now. It’s important.”
"P-please." Gold pleaded. "If you want your answers sooner your best bet is to ask Nirvana."
Heart sighed. “Fine… No clue why you won’t just tell me…”
"It's just… there were moments I'd rather not talk about." Gold said. "I'm going to my room." She said as she headed down the corridor leading to her room, leaving Heart alone in the dining hall, along with the book.
Heart sat down in one of the chairs. Hopefully, Nirvana would be a little more talkative. If not… her whole revised plan would be meaningless.
Moments later, Nirvana returned. She didn’t look mad, just a little worried. “Silver’s resting in Gold’s room with her. I made sure to make them promise not to do anything that involved that area of the body, just to be safe.” She said as she sat across from Heart.
“They’ll be fine.” Heart assured. “Now, while Silver and I were in the library, we came across a few interesting things. The book, for one, has some pretty interesting information. However, this,” Heart pulled the folded up piece of parchment from her pocket. “is a lot more interesting.”
Nirvana took the the parchment from Heart’s hand and opened it. All it took was a few seconds for her freeze up and drop the drawing. Her eyes teared up as she stared off into space. “Wh- where did you get that?”
“The book.” replied Heart. “Stuck in between two pages. It’s you… isn’t it? Before you were Nightmare Moon…”
“C-c-c-correct…”
“Answer me this… Do you want to be Nirvana again? Do you want to cast aside the name ‘Nightmare Moon’ and live as the princess of emotion once more?”
Nirvana nodded slowly. “A-almost as much as I want to be with you three.”
“Then first, I’ll need my ring back. Only for a little while, but I will need to have it.” Heart said, looking Nirvana straight in the eyes.
The alicorn fumbled with the ring of platinum as she pulled it off her finger with shaky hands, nearly dropping it a few times, before handing it over to Heart.
Heart placed the ring back on her own finger, feeling the memories from when she last look it off onwards added to it. “Thank you. Next, I’ll be needing that drawing. Where is it?” Heart noticed that it wasn’t in Nirvana’s hands.
Nirvana blushed. “I, umm… dropped it.” She reached under the table and picked it back up, also handing that to Heart.
Heart took the picture. “Do you know who drew this?” she asked, purely out of interest.
A single tear fell from the alicorn’s eye as soon as the question was answered. “Platinum Star did…”
“She was very skilled.” said Heart, reaching into the small slip in space and placing the picture in there. “The book, the drawing, and the ring… With these, I’ve come up with a new plan… And you are a key part in it, Nirvana.”
Heart started to explain. When she had finished, she lent back in her chair. “What do you think?” she asked Nirvana.
“It’s flawed… Lets do it.” Nirvana replied with a confident nod.
“Finally! My sisters would have argued for hours trying to convince me otherwise. I’m glad that you actually listened to me.” said Heart, smiling at Nirvana. Heart picked up the book. “I’ll quickly check up on Silver, and then I’m heading to sleep for an early night.”
“I hope Silver is better soon. I would hate to miss our date.” Nirvana said, looking down at the floor.
“If she isn’t better, I’ll see if I can do anything to speed up the healing process.” said Heart.
“Thank you.”
Heart stopped on her way out of the dining hall. She placed the book down on the floor and walked back over to Nirvana. “Tonight, might be the last night in a long time in which I can look upon you as an ally… and somepony I love.” Heart wrapped her arms around Nirvana, pulling her into a kiss.
Nirvana placed her hand on the back of Heart’s neck as they shared a moment of passion that neither wanted to end. A moment later, Nirvana broke away from the kiss. “I could make tonight extra special for you. I could always make it up to Silver.”
For a moment, Heart wanted nothing more than what Nirvana had suggested. But then, she thought better of it. “No… I want Silver to have her date with you. Me and Gold did, and I know that she doesn’t want to miss out on what you have planned.”
The alicorn looked concerned. “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.” replied Heart.
“Then let your dreams be the sweetest.” Nirvana said. “Goodnight, love.”
“Goodnight, Nirvana.” With that, Heart walked away, picking up the book in her magic as she left. She walked towards Gold’s room and knocked. “It’s me.” Heart said. “Are you two busy?”
“I’m in too much fucking pain for that, Heart!” Silver’s voice yelled from inside.
“Can I come in then?” Heart asked.
"Yeah, just be careful." Gold said in a calm tone.
Heart opened the door, seeing Gold sitting on the foot on the bed as Silver lay across it. Heart put down the book and walked over to Silver. “First things first, let’s get you fixed up.” Heart placed a hand on Silver’s area, holding back a blush as her horn glowed.
Silver inevitably blushed from the contact. She held back a teased whimper as Heart’s hand touched her aching, yet sensitive crotch. A shiver of pleasure ran up her spine when she felt Heart’s magic begin to heal. A soft moan escaped her even though she tried to hold it back.
After a while, Heart had finished her job. She got up and walked back over to the door, where she slumped against it. “You two alright?” she asked.
Silver’s face was burning with a blush, having felt herself grow wet from being healed in that area. “Y-yeah… I-I’m fine…” She replied. ‘I just might need a little help later.’
“Gold? Are you okay?” Heart asked her eldest sister.
“I actually want to talk about my date with Nirvana, but can we discuss it outside?” Gold asked.
“What’s wrong about saying it in here?” questioned Heart.
“Yeah? What did you say that I, your sister, can’t hear?” Silver added.
“Okay… the date started out fine, we went to the castle gardens, we talked a bit of small talk about things we liked and all that. Then after we had finished eating I asked her if there is anything else that she wanted to know about me and she asked what mother was like and how she treated me and I explained it to her.”
“I fail to see why Silver couldn’t hear that.” stated Heart. “What else happened?”
“Well… It got a bit emotional after that, near the end of our discussion I realized how stupid I was being and hence I stated it as so and she did something that she didn’t really want to do, but I deserved it. It hurt her bad enough that seeing the toll backhanding me took on her just tore me up so bad that I broke down and begged for her to forgive me.”
“Wait… She… hit you?” Silver pried.
“With good reason.” Gold replied. “It’s what I get for calling myself stupid. It was a justified action, but it just hurt her so bad that I couldn’t take anymore and begged for her forgiveness.”
“Whatever you said to her, Gold, she only would have hit you if you really were being completely stupid.” said Heart. “I don’t want to know what you were talking about, but whatever it was, you went too far with it.”
“But afterward we made up and enjoyed the rest of our date until we met Silver, or should I say I… ran into Silver.”
“Look, sis. I already said it’s fine. Sure that was one of the most painful things I’ve ever felt, but you didn’t mean to do it.” Silver said in a soothing tone.
"So... The reason you wanted to speak only to me about the date was... Because Nirvana hit you?" asked Heart, looking at Gold with interest.
"Well, it was my emotional breakdown that occurred when I begged for Nirvana's forgiveness that I was afraid to tell her about." Gold answered with her head hung low.
"Ah..." Heart said, nodding.
"I don't want to have another emotional breakdown ever again, but without you here I don't see how I could stop myself." Gold said, a hint of sadness taking to her tone.
"Just stay close to Nirvana and Silver, your two lovers. I'm sure you will be fine." Heart assured.
Gold stood and walked over to Heart, throwing her arms around her sister and pulling her into a tight embrace. "You're the… best sister anypony… could ever… have asked for." Gold said, tears building up in her eyes as she hugged her sister.
"Really? Would the best sister ever make her other sisters cry, like I know I have done..." Heart sighed.
"I know we've had our quarrels and arguments but that's different, it's the good things that you have done for us and what we've done for you that speaks to me." Gold said. "And I finally realize that your plan may be the most beneficial to us. You, me, Silver, and Nirvana, I just failed to see that benefit, even though the toll is heaviest on you, I realize that your plan is our only true shot at being able to stay with Nirvana."
“This only works if my part of the plan succeeds.” Silver stated.
"The toll is heavy on all of us." Heart stated. "No matter what... Tomorrow is our last day together for most likely a very long time."
“Now… Before I leave for my date, I have something to tell you, Gold. It has to do with the book that nearly smashed my clit.” Silver said as her magic lifted the book and brought it over to set it on the bed. “I made a discovery this morning before we met up in the dining hall for breakfast. Beneath my room, and most likely all of the others, there’s a massive magic generator swirling with alicorn magic. My plan was to tap into it over the time that Heart is gone, that way mother can’t mess with my mind without a fight. Gold, this also concerns you. If I’m right and there’s a generator in beneath every room, then we’ll need to teach you how to access alicorn magic. Mo- Nirvana will be able to help with this.”
"Yeah... We need to find those generators. They'll be extremely useful to us." said Heart.
Silver nodded. “The sooner, the better.”
"Then what are we waiting for? After Silver's date we'll have to start looking into how we can tap into this magic." Gold said rather confidently. "After we figure out how to get to the generators."
“You two get to work on trying to find the hidden doorways to the generators. I have a date to get ready for.” Silver said, before climbing off the bed and strutting out of the room towards her own.
As Silver looked through the wardrobe of her room, conflicting thoughts about wearing one of the black dresses kept tugging back and fourth in her mind. “Should I?” She asked herself, then shrugged, pulling out a black single strap dress and setting it down on the bed. “Fuck it. I’ll do it.”
She was halfway finished with straightening her frizzy mane and tail when a knock sounded at her door. “It’s open.” She called.
The door opened, Nirvana's voice sounding as she entered. "Hello, Silver."
Silver had just finished brushing all of the frizzyness out of her tail when Nirvana entered. She smiled shyly and blushed. “Hi, Nirvana… H-how do I look?”
"You look absolutely gorgeous." replied Nirvana, who was smiling widely.
“I know I said I wasn’t gonna wear a dress, but I did it anyway… Just for you.” Silver said, giving a quick little twirl to let Nirvana see all of her.
Nirvana giggled a bit. "You didn't have to wear a dress for me. But you really do look gorgeous in that dress."
Silver blushed harder. “Thanks, but I wanted to wear it for you.”
"I hope you'll love where were going, because we're not eating in the dining hall." Nirvana said in a giddy tone.
Silver cocked her head slightly to the side. “Really? Where we going?”
Nirvana smiled. "Somewhere very special."
The zebra giggled and wrapped her arms around Nirvana. “What are we waiting for then? C’mon, lead the way.”
Nirvana giggled too. “Alright, calm thyself.”
Nirvana led Silver out of the room and down the halls. The two mares made their way through the castle though the winding pathways, going in the exact opposite direction than the dining hall. They began taking a few flights of stairs, bringing them to higher levels, before finally making it to a tall spiral staircase. Without a word, Nirvana led Silver up into one of the towers at the top of the castle.
The emerged from the staircase, into a wide, circular room. In the middle was a table set for two, like with Heart’s date, only in the opposite time of day, or night. The roof had been enchanted with a transparent spell, allowing the entire night sky to be seen.
Silver gazed up at the starry sky, a look of awe on her face at how bright the stars were that night. “It’s… beautiful.”
"That it is, Silver. I chose this venue because I thought that you might like having dinner under the stars." Nirvana explained.
Silver jumped up and hugged the alicorn, having to stand on the tips of her hooves to give her a quick kiss. “Thank you, Nirvana. This is the best thing anypony has been able to do for me, well… besides my sisters saving my life.”
"I always used to come up here just to gaze at the stars at night and would sometimes even fall asleep up here, but that was when I was younger. It's been quite sometime since I was up her at this time of night, when these very stars would shine the brightest and now I get to share these moments with you and your sisters." Nirvana explained, smiling as the good memories came back to her.
“I just hope one day we can all look back on these days with a smile on our face, after the day mother accepts what we chose to do.” Silver said with longing. “I don’t want us to be separated.”
"I don't want to be separated from either three of you, but I understand why Heart chose to do what she has chosen to do and it is for all of us." Nirvana explained. "But enough about that. You must be hungry, yes?"
Silver’s stomach grumbled loudly, making her blush with embarrassment. “Ravenous. I sorta missed lunch when I was doing some research with Heart in the library.”
"Oh dear… it's a good thing I made plenty of food." Nirvana said leading Silver to the table and pulling out a seat for her.
Silver took the offered seat, thanking Nirvana as she was then scooted up to the table.
"So is there anything you'd like to talk about?" Nirvana asked as she revealed the food that was all on multiple silver platters, then took her seat.
Silver’s stomach grumbled again as her mouth watered, hunger making her ignore the question. “Looks delicious…” She took a bite of her food and purred loudly at the flavor.
The meal went by quietly until Nirvana spoke up. "So, is there anything that you found in the library that interests you while you were there?"
Silver choked on the wine when Nirvana asked the question, making her have to put the glass down and cough up what she had choked on. “You *cough* r-remember that giant book that I dropped on myself?” Silver asked when she had recovered.
"Yes, was there something in it that interests you?" Nirvana asked. "And also how are you feeling after that incident?"
“Well, first off, I’m fine now. Heart healed my bruised… umm… c-clitoris.” Silver replied with a blush. “Second, that book may have something that would interest you. It’s a young alicorn’s guide to magic.”
"What is in the book that might interest me?" Nirvana asked.
Silver leaned forward on her elbows. “A way for me and Gold to learn alicorn magic.”
"Hmm… that is interesting, what did it say in terms of how Gold could use alicorn magic?" Nirvana questioned curiously.
“It said, and I’m sure you already know, that alicorn magic is a combination of the three pony types, considering that all ponies have a kind of magic in them. My theory is that if we take a sample of alicorn magic that would sync with her, splice it, then slowly feed it into her body, that she’ll soon be able to take the entire magic element without a problem. Same goes for me.” Silver explained. “We’ll need you to help us though. I don’t have the knowledge, nor strength to splice alicorn magic. But first, what do you know about the magic generators?”
"These generators helped to replenish the magic that each of the alicorn princesses used, these generators also are what give what lighting you have in your rooms. If you can tap into the generator of the element that adapts to you, then you can use that magic and if it’s spent, these generators will replenish the magic that they generate." Nirvana explained.
“That’s what I thought…” Silver replied with a nod. “I found one of them, the one for Silver Shade.”
"Have Gold and Heart found their generators yet?" Nirvana asked.
“They should be searching now.” Silver leaned further, inching closer to Nirvana. “But enough about that. I want to talk about you now. What really makes you smile, besides me and my sisters?”
"Mostly just having a good time, enjoying the company of others, some forms of art and even just spending time in the gardens, I also enjoy a good joke or two, speaking of some funny things that have occurred, Gold told me about what all happened on your way here."
Silver stiffened, jaw going slack. “D-did she happen to mention anything about one of her sisters having a drinking problem?”
"No… why do you ask?" Nirvana questioned.
Silver mentally sighed with relief. Gold hadn’t told. “No reason.”
"Then I'll pry no further, although Gold getting scared by that hare was funny." Nirvana said with a giggle
No matter how many times it was brought up, Gold getting scared by a hare was still the single most funniest thing Silver had ever seen come from either of her sisters. She had to try really hard to keep from laughing hard enough to fall again. “Did she tell you about when Gold woke up with a hangover and sucker punched me?”
"No she didn't." Nirvana replied
“Well, we all three kinda had a hangover. Gold having brought a bottle of vodka and shared it with us, but that’s besides the point. I walk out of my tent and bam! She- well he at the time knocks me out.” Silver explained. “Ok, so Heart wakes me up and of course, I have no clue who did it, so me, little guy, knocked Heart on his ass, and stuck Gold to the ceiling of a defense barrier with a levitation spell.”
Nirvana giggled a bit. "Guess that serves 'him' right."
Silver laughed along with her. “Worst part is, how small I am compared to Gold and Platinum.”
Nirvana giggled even more as she heard about Gold getting whipped by her youngest sister. "Sounds like you… What’s the saying? Put Gold through the ringer."
“Kinda had to do it like that to knock him out. You try knocking Gold out some time. Her heads like a damn boulder.” Silver laughed, but it stopped suddenly when she realized that all those times she had gotten into mischief… they had always been with Platinum Heart. “But… Those times… might be gone…” A tear slid from her eye. “Times I might never have again…”
Nirvana stood and walked over to the zebra and pulled her into a tight embrace. "Heart will come back to us, I have a feeling that she will and I just know that her plan will work, I just know it." She sounded much more confident than she really was.
“B-but… what if my part doesn’t work?” Silver whimpered. “What if I’m the one that screws up?”
"It will work, just have faith in the plan that your sister had put together and it will work." Nirvana said, trying to comfort her lover.
“But… T-the magic I need from the generators is what’s going to keep me and Gold from being turned against you. It’s also what we need to protect you from Celestia if something goes wrong.” Silver explained through soft sobs. “I-if I can’t get it right… Heart’s lost to us… That’s what she didn’t tell you. I’m her ticket back. Her plan is to get in. Mine is to get her out.”
"These plans will work if you have faith in them, each other and yourselves. I learned this the hard way." Nirvana said pulling the weeping mare away and looking her in the eyes. "And I plan to help wherever I can."
“T-thank you.” She whimpered, before leaning up to kiss Nirvana again, but this time, making it last much longer.
Nirvana's eyes fluttered closed as she accepted the kiss, pulling Silver closer to her in a loving embrace.
Silver shivered in excitement at the kiss, pushing deeper into it, only to break it a moment later. “H-hay, Nirvana?” She blushed. “Um… do you give good back rubs?”
Nirvana giggled. “A couple thousand years lets you learn many things” She said as she gently began pressing her fingers into Silver’s shoulders, enticing low moans from her. “This was one of Celestia’s favorites of my skills.”
"There's got to be a secret passage in here somewhere. Silver said that each room had one but where is it?" Gold asked herself, searching for anything that would give way to a secret passage to the generator to her room.
Heart was looking around her own room, rubbing her chin thoughtfully. ‘Obviously, the secret passage is linked to these books somehow. Just pull the right one, and the passage unlocks. Only problem… is the amount of books...’ she thought. ‘Eh, better not waste any time.’ Heart’s horn glowed, and, one by one, the books started to pull themselves out.
"I wonder if I pushed on the bricks in the walls, maybe one of them will open the secret passageway." Gold said and began pushing on the bricks in the wall, hoping that one of them would lead to a secret opening leading to the generator.
“Are you serious?!” Heart had pulled out over half the books, but nothing yet. “Don’t worry… you have a few more to go… one of these have to be the switch…” Heart assured herself.
Gold was still pressing against the wall, beginning to swear in her mind 'How damn long is it going to take for me to find the release for the secret passage in here? Feels like there could be more than one that might lead to my demise, but I'll be damned if I run into that situation.' She thought to herself, continuing to press against the bricks in the walls.
It wasn’t until Gold’s frustration built up to a breaking point, where she screamed in anger and slammed her fist into a single brick that instantly sunk into the wall from the amount of force that was applied. There was a sharp click, then a low rumble as the bricks around the one that was sunk into the wall separated and slid forward,before splitting, leaving an open passageway.
Heart sighed and collapsed on the bed, having pulled off every single book on the shelves. “I guess Star didn’t have it like that… But if not bookcases… then what?!” Heart started walking around the room. The only things left were the desk and the bed. “Where else could it be?” she told herself, walking over to the desk, and examining it.
"I wonder if this is the passageway I am looking for? Well I guess there's only one way to find out." Gold said as she began walking down the path, watching her every step.
Heart looked closer at the desk and where it was positioned. She tried to move it, only to find that it wouldn’t budge. “Well, that’s strange…” She looked up to see that right above the desk, only if you looked from a specific angle, there was a simple runic lock circle. An easy spell to decipher, but it was mostly hidden from the angle she was standing at.
"I should be there any minute now." Gold said to herself as she kept walking down the passage as it slanted downward at a somewhat steep angle, following a draft she had felt a while back. "If I just keep following this draft it should lead me right to it."
“Ok… this looks interesting.” Heart said to the partially hidden runic lock circle. She moved around, trying to find where it would all be revealed from. It took a while. “Aha! Gotcha!” she yelled in triumph. “Now let’s see here… oh this looks easy enough.”
"The drafts getting stronger. I must be getting extremely close." Gold said as she reached the bottom of the steep staircase.
After the spell was cast, Heart heard something behind her open. She turned around, seeing a space that had just opened in the bookcase. Heart walked towards it, seeing a staircase descending deeper into the castle. “Finally… let’s go.”
Gold continued walking until, finally, she reached her destination. In the middle of a hexagonal room was a large orb with solid rings of golden magic circling around it at several differing angles. The orb itself was held off the ground by what looked to be a giant hourglass that the sand seemed to go in reverse inside of that hung from the ceiling. "Finally… the generator." She exclaimed excitedly. "Now all I have to do is remember where the right brick is and I'll be able to come back to it when I have to."
Heart continued down the stairs for what seemed like hours. Finally she came to a door. “If this is more stairs, I’m going to yell at the top of my voice, I swear to Celestia.” She opened the door. She was greeted by a large circular room, something was in the center of it. “Is that… the generator?”
Like Golden’s, a large orb sat in the center of the room, surrounded by rings of platinum colored magic that sat in every angle around the orb. It was held, not by a claw, but by a crystal delta that hung from the ceiling. Heart felt the compassionate magic radiating from the orb. “Holy shit… That’s powerful…” She started stepping towards the orb.
"This things quite powerful, oh what it would be like if I could wield this magic." Gold said as she admired the strength of the magic emanating from the orb.
Heart stretched out her hand towards the orb and pressed her palm against it. Instantly, the magic coursed through her body and she yelled. She felt like her soul was getting separated from her body. Heart wrenched her hand away from the orb, but she felt completely alive, filled to the brim with magic. “W-Wow…” she spoke to herself, feeling the powerful magic flow through her. ‘I seriously hope that Gold doesn’t try that… I think I nearly died…’
Gold began to reach her hand out to touch the orb but pulled away immediately. 'No, how do I know this thing won't kill me. I should just leave and hope that I remember where the brick is when I need to access this room again.' She thought to herself as she then turned around and headed back down the path to return to her room.
Heart looked at her ring. “I wonder…” She had to test this.
Once in her room, Gold observed the closing of the wall, watching for the brick to use to access the generator when necessary.
Heart replaced the ring on her finger, her curiosity satisfied. She was about to leave, but then somepony seemed to speak from behind her. It was definitely a mare who spoke. She wheeled around, but nopony was there. Confused, Heart exited the room. Then she remembered the stairs. “Fuck stairs!” she yelled at the top of her voice.
Suddenly Gold’s stomach growled with hunger. "Heh, guess that says it's time to go eat." She said as she headed out of the room, the brick location etched into her mind, and went first to Heart’s room and knocked on the door a few times.
Heart had only just got off the stairs when she heard her door being knocked on. As she walked towards it, the passageway behind her closed. She opened the door to see Gold standing there. “Hey Gold. Any luck?”
"Yeah, took damn near forever to find the right brick and walk down a long hallway with a steep staircase, I almost touched it after a while of looking at it but decided against it." She replied.
“Lucky you. I pulled every single book off the shelf, but I still couldn’t find it.” Heart sighed. “Took me a while, but there was some sort of magical rune that opened the passage behind me. And after about a thousand stairs, I finally got to the generator.”
"Hey, at least your way wasn't as painful as mine, had to slam my fist into the right brick." Gold said, revealing slightly bruised knuckles.
“Ooohhh, ouch.” said Heart sarcastically. “Try touching that generator, then come and explain to me what pain feels like.”
"I almost did." Gold replied.
“Then you made the right choice.” Heart responded.
"So… you hungry? Cause I am." Gold asked.
“Starving. Lead the way.” Heart said.
Gold headed out of the room followed by Heart, and headed towards the dining hall.

//-------------------------------------------------------//
First Contact (of more than one kind)
Nirvana and Silver were now just making their way through the castle. Well, Silver wasn’t exactly walking, more like her passed out body was being carried on Nirvana’s shoulder after passing out from both the back rub she received and the amount of wine she had drank.
Nirvana giggled, shaking her head. “Such a silly mare.” She said to herself.
On her way to Silver’s room, she met Heart and Golden in the halls as they were on their way to the dining hall. “Oh, hello. I was just taking Silver to her room.”
“She get drunk or something?” Heart asked, looking at the limp form of Nirvana’s shoulder.
Nirvana giggled. “A little, yes, but my back rub didn’t help her situation any.”
“Back rub?” inquired Heart. Somehow, those two words made her own back tingle.
"She quite enjoyed it." Nirvana giggled.
"Well I'll just have to get one sometime later on myself to experience the feeling. Heart and I were just on our way to the dining hall after finding our generators." replied Gold.
Nirvana’s eyes widened. “You found them?”
“Yep. Took a while, but we got there eventually.” Heart said. “They… certainly are powerful…”
“Oh my. You didn’t touch them did you?” Nirvana asked, clearly worried.
“I didn’t.” Gold replied immediately.
“Ahaha…” Heart laughed nervously. “Maybe… I just brushed against it…”
The alicorn gasped. “Oh no. How do you feel right now? Any nausea, headaches, trouble thinking? Any problems with your horn?”
“Nothing that I can notice… It just… felt really painful.” Heart said.
“I almost touched it, but, as I told Heart, I decided against it.” Gold stated.
“Heart, whatever you do, don’t use magic until I can take a look at you. Alicorn magic is highly unstable and sits on a delicate triangular balance. If it’s thrown off….” Nirvana couldn’t finish, letting the sentence trail off as it was. “Just… don’t use magic. I’ll be back after I lay Silver down in her bed.”
Heart could only shiver as she thought what might happen to her. “Ok… I won’t use magic.” she agreed.
“Good.” With that, Nirvana walked on down the hall, Silver still snoring on her shoulder as she walked out of sight.
“So, should we wait for her or get some food in our stomachs?” Gold asked, her stomach gurgling loudly.
“I think we should get something to eat.” agreed Heart.
With that, Golden Eye and Platinum Heart made their way to the dining hall to sate their hunger.
As Nirvana lay Silver down in her bed, she couldn’t help but wonder what the zebra was dreaming about. Being as she had some of Luna’s powers, her curiosity got the best of her and she touched her horn to Silver’s forehead, entering her dream. At first all she saw was herself, lied across, oddly enough, Silver’s bed. Then it dawned on her that, bouncing up and down on Nirvana’s length, was Silver.
Nirvana’s face instantly ignited into a bright blush, before quickly exiting the dream. She straightened herself, trying to ignore the heat in her crotch as well as the aroused throbbing. ‘Note to self… Don’t do that unless you plan on making those fantasies come true.’ She thought and made her way back to the dining hall, where she found Heart and Gold. “Silver’s in her room, sleeping soundly.”
“That’s good.” replied Heart
“Now, Heart.” Nirvana turned to the mentioned mare. “You’ve absorbed a dangerous level of magic and, unless it remains utterly stable, it needs to be extracted.”
“How do you know if it is not stable?” Heart asked.
“If it’s trying to drain the life force out of you to stabilize itself.” Nirvana replied in a blunt tone.
“Y-you mean… she c-could…” Gold stammered.
“Yes, Gold. I knew from the start that Silver’s plan to get you back was dangerous, Heart. I’m just as hesitant about letting it happen as I am about letting you leave, but it’s a risk Silver is willing to take.” Nirvana explained. “Now if the magic already resonated, your class just rose quite a few levels. If not, then the precautions will have to be taken.”
“Now, with risks in mind. How, exactly, would I be able to use such magic once we have found a way for me to tap into it without taking the risk that Heart had taken?” Gold asked.
“I’ll explain once I’m done making sure Heart is well.” Nirvana stated as she walked towards Heart and held out her hand. “I must enter your body… Not in that way, Gold. Stop snickering.”
Gold had to try so hard to suppress the urge to burst into laughter. “I’m sorry, it won’t happen again.”
Heart just rolled her eyes at Gold. “Get your head out of the gutter.” She stretched out her hand towards Nirvana. “How long will this take?” she asked.
“It depends on how deep the magic set its roots.” Nirvana’s horn began to glow as she summoned the magic needed. “Now this may feel weird and your body will try to reject me, so you may feel some stinging. Just try to relax and tell me when you’re ready.”
Heart took a deep breath. “I’m ready.”
Nirvana touched her horn to Heart’s forehead, instantly leaving her own body and entering Heart’s, pushing through her body’s defenses against her. Deep in Heart’s aura, making rings like it had around the orb, but around Heart’s soul, her own magic weaving in and out of it, making the streams into a double helix, before melding into a single stream of raw power, but it seemed perfectly stable.
“How odd…” Nirvana’s voice echoed through Heart. “It resonated perfectly. No seams what-so-ever.”
“Really?” Heart seemed astonished. “You sure?”
Nirvana’s emotion magic reached out and brushed against the compassion magic. Heart’s magic as well as the compassion recognised Nirvana and coiled lovingly around her soul. “Awww… How sweet. Even your magic loves me.” She giggled. “You seem fine. Just keep a close eye on it. Alicorn magic does have power spasms. It will take a while to get control over, but it only causes minor mischief.” Nirvana said as she retreated from Heart, back into her own body.
Heart opened her eyes. “So… everything’s all good?” she asked again.
“Yes, Heart. You’re now fused with alicorn magic.” Nirvana giggled.
“So… she’ll live?” Gold asked
“But of course!” The alicorn stated, grinning.
“That’s good.” Gold said, wiping away the sweat of worry. “Now, about my question before you checked Heart’s magic.”
“Ah, yes. About that. Considering that you don’t have a horn to focus magic, I’ll need to teach you a complicated form of magic manipulation… With your hands. It takes massive amounts of focus to force magic to be wielded from anywhere but a horn, though it can be done.” Nirvana explained. “Though Silver’s plan on getting the magic to resonate with you will have to be used. I’ll have to splice it and give it to your body slowly, letting your soul and it resonate.”
“I understand. When do we begin?” Gold asked.
“Tomorrow. Before we make for the Crystal empire. I’m to test Silver’s splicing theory while you three sleep. I have little use of sleep anyway.” Nirvana replied.
“Then I will need as much sleep as I can get before then.”
Nirvana nodded. “That you will. I have never witnessed a pegasus absorb alicorn magic. This will most definitely be a historic event.”
Gold walked up to Nirvana and wrapped her arms around the alicorn. “Goodnight Nirvana.” she said then planted a kiss on her lips, hoping that it could last longer before pulling away and headed down the hall to her room.
Nirvana looked after Gold as she left. “She’s taking this well, Heart. They both are.”
“Yeah… I see. But nothing has happened to me yet… It will only be after I leave when they will both… not be themselves.” Heart said.
Nirvana sighed. “I know… As their lover, I’m to do my best to keep them sane and as happy as possible… But… The truth is… I’m scared for you too.”
“I know you are.” Heart sighed.
“I… I might even cry in front of Celestia when she takes you… Assuming she’ll take only you.”
“She’ll only take me. I know that much.”
“And what will she do to me when she finds out that only my magic at it’s purest form can change you back to a stallion?” Nirvana asked her.
“Wait… only you can change me back into a stallion?” Heart asked.
“High level spells like this that were done by a certain magic, can only be undone by that same magic.”
“I never knew that… I guess Celestia just has to deal with me being a mare.” Heart said, laughing coldly.
“Both you and Celestia will hate me for it.” Nirvana added, looking away. “You won’t remember any of this.”
“I- I know…” whispered Heart, looking down. “I don’t want that any more than you or my sisters do.”
“I could… you know… always just block the emotions you have for me from getting tampered with.” Nirvana suggested. “I can do that.”
“There’s a risk that Celestia will see that… Then she’ll force all of us to stay.” Heart sighed.
“Curse it all!” Nirvana cried, her emotional magic flaring to her distress and anger. The pressure of the room dropped as did the temperature. “A thousand years she trapped her own friend on the moon, not even once giving me a chance to calm and explain my emotionally irrational actions! And still she punishes me! Is forgiveness such a terrible thing to ask for from somepony who strives to make magic out of friendship and harmony!? Does it please her to make me shed my tears!? I’ve learned from my wrongs! Why must she keep hammering me lower!? I’m not the monster!” The alicorn wailed. “I’m sick of it! I’m sick of the pain she put me through after the pain I went through with my sister! I’m sick of it all!” The chair next to Nirvana suddenly began to crack, before being compressed into nothing more than a speck, then disappearing into nothing.
Heart looked at the space where the chair had been, wide eyed. “Calm down, Nirvana.” Heart said in a soothing tone. “Just… try and focus before you destroy everything around you.”
“I-I’m so sick of Celestia…” Nirvana whimpered, laying her head on the table and sobbing. “I-I’m sick of crying… I-I-I… a-actually feel like I’m g-going to be sick…” She groaned and fell out of the chair onto her hands and knees on the floor, heaving. “O-oh Gods, n-” She was cut off when she hurled her half digested dinner onto the floor, tears streaming down her face.
Heart ran over to Nirvana and knelt down. “Come on, let’s get you in bed, Nirvana.”
Nirvana turned around and hugged Heart, burying her tear stained face into the mare’s chest, bawling like a foal.
Heart rubbed Nirvana’s back. “It’s okay… I’m still here.” whispered Heart.
The alicorn didn’t have the strength to respond, only squeezing Heart tighter, never wanting to let go.
“I’ll help you to your room, Nirvana.” Heart offered. “I’d like to see it.”
Nirvana slowly nodded, trying to calm her crying down enough to walk. She looked down at what she had thrown up and cringed. “I-I’m *hick* sorry… I s-should clean that up…”
“Allow me.” Heart’s horn glowed and the vomit disappeared. “Now, just tell me the way to your room. I can carry you there, if need be.”
“I-I stay in *hick* L-Luna’s old room, but i-if you want to see mine, i-it’s *hick* across from y-yours.” Nirvana stuttered past a few tears that continued to leak from her eyes. “But I w-wouldn’t want you to *hick* carry me.” She tried to stand, only to find herself too weak to do so, making her whimper loudly.
“I can, and I will carry you.” Heart spoke. She grabbed Nirvana and hoisted her up up off the ground. “Your room is closest, so I’ll lay you down there.”
Nirvana blushed. “T-thank you…”
Heart started to walk, almost falling on the first step due to the excess amount of weight, but continuing on perfectly after that.
Nirvana wrapped her arms around Heard and nuzzled into her neck, her tears slowly drying up as she calmed. “I… I love you, H-Heart.” She said in a cracking whisper.
“I love you too, Nirvana.” replied Heart, smiling. She soon approached the hall that held the many chambers that belonged to alicorns, mostly long dead. Carrying Nirvana towards the room she had mentioned, Heart stopped in front of the door and looked at the crest cutie mark on the door. It was the same winged heart that had been on the drawing. “So this is where you used to stay?”
“Yes… My sister and I were put across from each other, because we were related. Celestia and Luna never liked separating family.” Nirvana replied. “I guess I slithered pretty far up her arse for her to want to so badly separate you from your sisters.”
“I guess you did.” said Heart, opening the door with magic and walking inside.
Nirvana’s room was walking into an argument between Celestia and Luna. The entire coloration was black and white, but split right down the center of it, even on the bed. On the black side, it was accented by elegant white designs, something almost as tribal as her cutie mark had been. The white side was the same, but with black and mirrored it perfectly. Like in Heart’s room, there was a large bookshelf in the far right, containing numerous titles.
Nirvana clung to Heart still, even when she laid the alicorn down in the bed. “P-please… will you stay with me for our last night together?” The alicorn begged.
“I was… actually thinking of doing that.” Heart admitted.
Nirvana’s face lit up. “R-really?” She asked with a huge smile.
“Yeah. I was really thinking of staying with you…” Heart said, lying down next to Nirvana.
Nirvana giggled and pulled Heart against her. “But, um… My night gown. I don’t wish to sleep in a dress.”
“Well… I’m not stopping you. Do as you wish.” Heart said, a slight blush crawling up her face.
The alicorn caught Heart’s blush, knowing what she was feeling about Nirvana undressing in front of her, making her blush herself. A whole nother side of her came out just to make her say this: “T-then do you mind if, I don’t know… If we sleep in our underwear?” Nirvana immediately wondered where that had come from, but was too shocked that she had said it to take it back.
Heart’s face went completely crimson. “Ahahaha…” she laughed nervously. Then she actually thought about it. “Well… I don’t mind.” she agreed.
Nirvana’s jaw nearly dropped. ‘Well that was certainly unexpected...’ She reached over and grabbed the bottom of Heart’s shirt. “Let me help you with that.”
The unicorn lifted her arms up, allowing Nirvana to pull it off easier.
As soon as Nirvana had pulled the shirt over Heart’s breasts, she immediately covered them again, a deep blush on her face. “C-c-c-couldn’t find a bra?” She stammered.
Heart’s face was so red, somepony might actually think that was her coat colour. “W-Well… you did wake me up really early today… I didn’t have time to do anything.”
The alicorn blushed again. “I’m sorry.”
“N-no… it’s fine…” Heart blushed deeper. “You can… continue if you want.”
Nirvana pulled the shirt up again, making Heart’s breasts visible. Sure she had seen them already, but then she had been Nightmare Moon. They were like she had made them, all about the same size as her sisters, larger sized Ds. Nirvana’s mouth went dry as she finally pulled the shirt all the way off. “Oh… my…”
Heart blushed and looked away.
Nirvana couldn’t stop her hand. It moved almost on it’s own accord towards Heart’s right breast, before gently groping it. It was soft, but held some firmness to it. Nirvana blushed harder at her own forwardness.
Heart moaned softly, allowing Moon to touch her. She didn’t care.
Nirvana pulled her hand away, not wanting to take things too far. Heart had already set the line and Nirvana was going to follow it like a life tether. She moved her hands down to her jeans and undid them, letting Heart slip them off herself.
Heart pulled them off and dropped them off the bed. She then looked at Moon. “You are undressing me… but I don’t seem to be returning the favour…”
The alicorn blushed. “I-I was getting there.” She replied and rolled over, so Heart could get to the zipper on the back of her dress.
Heart slowly unzipped the dress, slowly pulling it off the alicorn. Once it was completely off, she dropped it off the side of the bed to join her jeans.
Nirvana rolled back over to face the unicorn next to her, before pulling her into a tight embrace, not caring if Heart’s braless breasts rubbed against her. “Thank you… For everything. You and your sisters have made me the happiest I’ve been in a thousand years. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you, Heart. It just won’t feel right without you, being here with your sisters.”
“It won’t feel right without you either, Nirvana…” whispered Heart. “While I won’t be able to remember you… a part of me will always be empty without you.”
Nirvana pushed her lips against Heart’s, kissing her with built up passion.
Heart pulled Nirvana even closer, deepening the passionate kiss, pushing her tongue against Nirvana’s lips.
Nirvana parted her lips, accepting Heart’s tongue, letting it slip past her lips and enter her mouth to play with her own. She rubbed her hands down Heart’s back, before wrapping her arms around Heart’s waist and pulling her up against her body. She so badly wanted Heart, wanted to make the mare’s night special for her, but Heart had already restricted that and Nirvana wanted to respect that.
Heart gripped Nirvana’s mane, pulling her closer. She knew she wanted nothing more than to have one last great night with Nirvana… but she couldn’t in good conscience.
The alicorn broke the kiss long, pleasurable moments later, panting. She buried her face into Heart’s chest and cuddled the mare against her as she pulled the blanket over them both with her magic. “I should just vanish with you all… Just leave Equestria… But your mother would stop at nothing to find me and when she did, she wouldn’t care who I really am. She’d kill me… Heart… If this fails… I may die.”
“I understand… but…” Heart couldn’t think of anything to say. She was right. If this plan failed, Silver, Gold, Nirvana… they would all be wounded to the core… forever.
“Losing somepony else also may cause my emotions to spike again.” A tear slid down Nirvana’s cheek. “I-I don’t want to be Nightmare Moon again!”
“And you won’t…” assured Heart. “Just try and remain calm…”
“B-b-b-but… Ok…” Nirvana said past a weak whimper. She rubbed her face against Heart’s chest and tried to relax, closing her eyes.
Heart rubbed Nirvana’s mane, closing her eyes as well. She was beginning to doubt her own plan, but she shook herself. She couldn’t doubt this plan… it had to work… it MUST work…
Silver was woken from a deep sleep by a whisper in her ear. She quickly jolted awake and snapped her eyes open, scanning the whole room for anypony, finding nothing. Yet there was still a quiet whisper in her ear, not soft enough to ignore and not loud enough to understand. It was driving her up the wall. She pushed herself up from the bed and looked around again.
“Hello?” She called, only making the voices speak faster. She brought her hands up to her ears and wiggled her finger in each of them, thinking it was her mind playing tricks on her, but when she removed her hands, the voices continued to whisper. “Ugh! What the hell!?” Silver exclaimed, throwing her hands up.
Silver grumbled as she crawled out of bed and searched around the room for anything that could make such odd noises, once again finding nothing. It wasn’t until she tried the shadow portal to the generator did the voice finally become recognisable.
“Young mare who once was male, you seek what magic that shouldn’t fail. Tell me what it is you seek to protect and the power you need will resurrect. If your reason is just, I shall blow away the dust. The magic of shadow will be yours to command and be there to protect and serve at your every demand.” The voice said
“W-who are you?” Silver asked.
“I once was known as Silver Shade, but what once was strong soon fades. I am now not but a soul, trapped within the magic, but still whole. I wish to pass on my power, so that in it those you love may shower. Your affection is strong, though what you love will not last long. What is it you must protect? Who must you defend from neglect?”  
Silver sighed. “My sister is making a sacrifice to make sure me and my other sister are happy with Nirvana. But I’m afraid, we all are. We’ll not only be risking Heart’s love for us, but we’ll be risking the life of the mare who loves us.”  
“My dear zebra, you have passed my test. If only there was a way for me to fest. Touch the orb and my magic you will absorb.”  
“Ok…” Silver walked towards the orb of power, her hand out stretched, soon making contact with it. A surge of energy surged through her, making her stiffen, but something made her relax, making her feel warm and comfortable, like in the night. Her vision soon faded and Silver blacked out.
Gold had been asleep for the past few hours, that is, until she heard a whisper. Snapping her eyes open, she bolted upright, looking around the room. She got out of her bed, ready to confront whoever had whispered to her.
“Who’s th-” Gold stopped as she glanced around her golden room. All she could find were the gold drapes, blowing in the gentle breeze from her open window. “there…”
She walked carefully around her room searching for any possibilities for a place that a whisper could be heard from, but found nothing, then slid back into bed.
The whispers grew more insistent, trying to obtain Gold’s attention.
“Where is that voice coming from, I’ve checked every sing-... The secret passageway to the generator.” Gold said, getting out of bed and walking over to the wall and pushing the brick that she had bruised her knuckles on earlier, the wall sliding open and revealing the way to the generator. “Hello… are you in here?” she called as she walked into the passageway.
The whispers had grown louder, even more insistent. They seemed to be coming from the generator.
The closer Gold got, the clearer the voice began to grow clearer. “Hello?” she called out hoping for a reply. ”Are you down here?”
Gold couldn’t have been sure, but whisper seemed to say ‘closer, child’...
Gold kept walking, following the beckoning call of the whisper. “Who are you?”
A gentle chuckle happened seemingly right next to Gold’s ear. “We are known by many names, dear child of Celestia… But you may call us princess Golden Hourglass, keeper of time, cousin of thy mother.” A voice said to her.
“F-forgive me your highness, but how are you able to talk to me?” Gold asked, continuing to walk the remainder of the passageway to the generator.
The voice chuckled again. “An alicorn’s soul never really dies, dear child. Thy simply… connect. Tis not true for magic? Even thou is filled with it, forever attached to thy soul. The magic keeps us sustained and allow us to throw our voice into thy head.”  
“So… what is it that has you beckoning me?” The pegasus asked.
“Let us ask thou something… What doth thy cherish most in life? What would thou risk thy life to protect? Let thy reasons be just and We shall bestow upon thee the power We live by. The power We control.”  
“My sisters, Silver and Heart, Nirvana, the only true love I have ever had, they are the ones that I cherish the most and I would risk my life to protect that which I cherish most. I just don’t want to lose any of them.” Gold replied. “I promised Heart that I would protect Silver and Nirvana with everything I could ever give, I don’t want to let her down, but I want to protect her too.”  
“Child… With time there are always solutions. That is what time is, solution. For if one mistake is fixed of the past, that fix shall go on through the future, always evolving. Come closer, child, for We were blind and never learned to see once we could see. We wish to bestow our power upon thee.”
As the voice said this, Gold entered the chamber, the generator in the middle. “What must I do, your highness?” she asked.
“Please, child, call us Hourglass. Thy doth not need to address us what we once were.” The voice giggled.
“Then… What must I do, Hourglass, for you to bestow your power upon me?” Gold asked again.
“We must cross souls. Our magic shall flow freely through thy body.”
“Then… that means… I have to touch the generator?” Gold asked.
“Yes, child. It will not hurt.” The voice chuckled. “Tis only when we are touched without our consent, do we hurt.”
'So that's why Heart said not to touch it the first time, she touched it without consent.' She thought to herself as she walked forward with her hand outstretched, advancing until her hand made contact with the generator. Upon contact with the generator, a tingling sensation ran from her hand through her arm and to the rest of her body, causing her to relax, though her hand remained in contact. It was then that she blacked out.
Silver woke with a jolt. Her head ached slightly, but she felt tingly all over; in a good way. She sat up and scratched her head, looking around at her surroundings, finding she was back in her room. “How’d I get back in here?” Silver asked herself.
The mare pulled herself out of bed and stretched her stiff limbs, feeling them pop loudly, sighing in content as they did so.
Silver turned to her door and made for it, opening it slowly and peeking out. Everypony still seemed to be asleep she stepped out, not expecting somepony to walk out of the room across from her and slam into the zebra for a second time, knocking her on her ass again.
Gold expected to awaken where she had fallen asleep, but when she woke, she found herself in her room. 'How did I get here?' She thought to herself as she slipped out of bed and strode for the door, opening it and stepping out only to run into somepony.
She looked to see that it was her youngest sister, Silver Soul that she had run into. "Silver?" She said, lending a hand to pick her sister up.
Silver reached up and took the offered hand. “One of these days, I’ll just end up knocking you down instead, Gold.”
Gold giggled lightly. "One day, Silver, one day you will. So uh… anything eventful happen to you?"
“Meaning…”
"Did you get woke up in the middle of the night?"
“Yeah. Why, did you too?” Silver asked.
"Yeah. I checked every part of my room for it the first time I heard it, then tried going back to bed but I heard it again then went for my secret passageway to the generator." Gold replied. "Did the same happen to you when you touched it after talking to somepony?"
Silver’s eyes widened in surprise. “You too!? So you got your alicorn magic without even having to filter it!?”
"I-I guess, all I know is I passed out after I touched it."
“Holy shit, me too.”
"We'll need to see Nirvana about this, see what she can tell us." Gold stated
“Not yet. I think she’s still sleeping.” Silver stated. “Let’s go see if we can’t figure out how to cook breakfast… Well I cook breakfast…”
Gold giggled a bit. "I knew you'd remember that I'd burn toast."
“You burned ramen noodles. Now that was something.”
Gold blushed a bit out of embarrassment, unable to say a word.
Silver shook her head. “Never in my life had I seen that kind of cooking fail, but hay. You ran my ass over twice and nearly smashed my clit with a book. I think I got enough payment for me to playfully insult you for at least a day.”
Gold’s blush only deepened, still speechless, and now trying to hide her embarrassment behind her mane.
“Oh, stop that. I’m supposed to be the cute one.” Silver teased.
"You know how I get when I'm truly embarrassed, this is the first time you actually did that." Gold replied.
“Whatever. You can tell Heart if you want, but I’m pretty hungry.” Silver said, rubbing her empty stomach.
Gold knocked on Heart's door. "You awake?" she called. Nothing.
"Like Nirvana, she must still be asleep."
"I wonder where the library is, I know it's not like me but I just want to try reading something for a good cause."
Silver blinked a couple of times. She smacked Gold just to make sure the mare was actually standing there. “Who the fuck are you?”
"You silly mare, I'm your sister, Golden Eye. All I wanted was to try reading for the first time." Gold replied. "And why the hay did you hit me?"
“I just was making sure it was you I was looking at and not something my mind created.” Silver replied with a shrug.
"Oh come on, all I want to do is try reading a book for once." Gold playfully shot back.
“About what?”
"I was thinking of researching for ways for me to use alicorn magic if it truly is in me."
Silver giggled. “Oh, Gold. You poor mare. I have the book with me in my room.”
"I also wanted to research magic in general." Gold added. "So I could get a better understanding of it."
“Well, if you could remember it, I’ll show you a shortcut there.”
"Okay." Gold replied
“This way.” Silver gestured for Gold to follow, before strutting down the hall, swishing her tail just to tease her.
Gold followed Silver, memorizing every corner, although she was getting hot and flustered by her sisters teasing. "You naughty mare you, getting me all hot and flustered."
Silver giggled, before stopping in the middle of one of the halls near the dining hall and pressed her hand against the wall. An entire panel slid inward and pivoted, revealing a secret passage.
Gold stopped for a moment. "This is the shortcut?" She asked curiously
Silver gestured toward it. “After you.”
Gold cautiously walked into the passageway that had been opened, keeping an eye out for any possible traps.
The zebra walked in closely after, following her sister through. “It leads straight into the library.”
"You know more about the castle than I do right now, I'm sure you could point me in the right direction when we get there." Gold said as she kept walking.
“Nope. I’m keeping a close eye on you.” Silver walked closer up behind Gold and grabbed her ass. “A very close eye.”
Gold yelped in surprise from her sister grabbing her ass. "Oh, you're so naughty." She said.
“I’m a needy little princess… I’m attention hungry.” Silver whispered. “I just might have to be your ‘study buddy’.”
Gold giggled a bit and continued walking. "I might just be glad to have you as my 'study buddy'."
Silver joined in on the giggling. “Ok then. I’ll make sure to set aside my notes and study for the big ‘exam’.” She licked her lips. “I just love taking ‘tests’."
Heart was indeed still asleep, with Nirvana's head on her chest. She had been pulled into a dream. She was standing in the middle of a large room but the walls, floor and ceiling were made of mist, blue and glittering. Heart spotted a small whisp, brighter than the mist surrounding it. Heart seemed to feel something radiating from the whisp... Like an actual conscience.
"Who are you?" The unicorn asked the whisp.
“I am known by many titles, but you may call me princess Platinum Star, keeper of compassion and sister of princess Nirvana.” the whisp replied “Might I ask what your name is?”
“I'm Platinum Heart, a child of Celestia."
“Your mother and my sister were once great friends, but now that has changed, yes?” the whisp asked.
"Y-Yes..." Heart stammered. "Celestia is blind and doesn't know that Nightmare Moon is actually Nirvana. I intend to change that."  
“I see. Let me tell you why it hurt when you touched the generator, the reason for the pain is simply because I was touched without my consent, if you had come under my consent and done so, you would not have felt the pain that you did, but I see that you have survived the amount of magic you absorbed and have resonated with it perfectly.” the whisp explained.
"I knew that I shouldn't have touched that generator..." Heart sighed. "But I was compelled to learn more."
“It’s quite alright, you were curious and I understand that.” the whisp replied with a light chuckle. “But your survival of the absorption of my magic with such a dangerous level, that proves that your will is strong and your purpose is just. Your plan is a noble and valiant one and I appreciate what you intend to do, though I also understand that it will affect the emotions of your sisters and my own.”   
"I know... But what I plan to achieve must be done in this way... It gives me no happiness to leave them..."
“I can see that clearly Heart, it pains me to know how my sister might react to your absence, it pains me even more to know how your sisters will react.” the whisp stated.
"I wonder... You can speak to me... because I absorbed your magic. Can you speak to those who have your magic from anywhere?" Heart asked.
“An alicorn’s soul does not simply die with it’s body, all I have to do is connect, like I am with you. I can connect to anypony I deem worthy of my magic, and you have been deemed worthy. Use it with responsibility, Heart. Your sisters are in the library as we speak. Join them while you still have time. Now I must bid you adieu, and farewell.” the whisp replied.
"Wait!"Heart yelled. "At least be with Nirvana when I'm... No longer around..."
“Don’t worry young one, I will be there for her as long as need be, I will be there for all of them.” the whisp replied.
"Thank you... Star..."
Heart blinked her eyes opened. She looked down at Nirvana and started to brush her fingers through her floating mane, still thinking about all that Star had told her. “I need to talk to them…” She whispered to herself.
Gold and Silver were in the library by now, doing some research on magic. Silver, on the other hand, was doing some studying of her own, rubbing her hands down Gold’s now bare back, digging her fingers into the sensitive spots that she knew a pegasus had. “How does that feel, my sexy sister?” Silver asked, licking her lips at how arousing Gold’s soft moans were.
“Mmmmm… It feels wonderful.” Gold replied with a low moan.
Silver giggled and began rubbing Gold’s sensitive wings. “What about here?”
“Ohhhh… gods yes.” Gold moaned a little more loudly than before.
“Then… What if I do this?” Silver asked in a devious tone as she leaned forward and slowly licked the sensitive spot between Gold’s wings.
“Ahhhhhh… y-yes.” Gold moaned again, her volume again intensifying.
She slowly dragged her tongue from Gold’s wings up to the pegasi’s neck, before lightly nibbling on it. Her hands continued to gently, yet firmly massage the stiff wings.
“Ohhhh… yes… d-don’t stop.” Gold moaned
Silver moved her hands from the erect wings and reached around Gold, before grabbing hold of her breasts, groping and massaging them.
“Hahhhh… f-fuck yes.” Gold moaned as she reached over her shoulder and pulled Silver into a passionate kiss.
Silver closed her eyes and locked lips with her sister, squeezing the mare’s breasts firmly. Her arousal spiked, making her crotch grow wet.
Gold moaned into the kiss from having her breasts squeezed, she turned around and began undoing Silver’s pants, letting them fall to the floor when she was done with them.
Reaching back around Gold, Silver undid her bra (That she found in Golden Hourglass’ room) and tossed it to the side. The zebra mare then lightly pinched each exposed nipple.
The pegasus gasped as she felt her nipples being pinched, then letting out pleasured moans.
Silver broke the kiss, pulling back and releasing Gold’s nipples. “It’s not fair that I get to play with you, but you didn’t get to play with me. Would you like a turn?” She asked with a lusty giggle, blushing deeply as she started to lift her own shirt.
"Mmhm... It would be proper to return the favor, would it not?" Gold replied, grinning lustfully as she reached out to begin pulling Silver's shirt off the rest of the way. "Let me help you with that."
Silver giggled. “Such a gentle mare.” She said when the shirt was pulled free from her body. Silver’s was just as busty as her sisters, thanks to Nirvana, only her’s were more pillowy than Gold’s. Silver blushed. “Now what are you gonna do with me?”
"Oh, there is so much I want to do, I just don't know where to start." Gold replied as she ran her finger down Silver's stomach and to her panties, tugging on the waistband lightly.
Silver leaned forward and whispered into Gold’s ear. “Then do it all…”
Gold began rubbing Silver's covered marehood lightly, probing her marehood through the material at random intervals.
The zebra gasped, her whole body shivering with excitement from the contact, before moaning softly. She absently returned to fondling Gold’s breasts then leaned down to suckle on one of her nipples.
"Ahhhhh… ohhhh Silver." Gold moaned lightly as she pushed the material aside and continued pleasuring Silver's marehood, digging a little deeper this time.
Silver squeaked past Gold’s nipple as pleasure assaulted her mind. She nibbled lightly on the tender nipple in her mouth, trying to give back a little.
The pegasus gasped as her nipple was lightly nibbled on, moaning as she then pulled her hand away from Silver's marehood, reaching for the waistband and pulling her panties down slowly.
Silver wiggled her hips, letting the panties fall from her cute butt. She then pulled away from Gold’s breasts, licking her lips as she gazed up at the mare. The zebra smiled and laid down in front of her sister, pulling the black panties all the way off before spreading her legs, showing her moist lips.
Gold licked her lips as she gazed upon Silver's bare breasts, leaning in to lick each tender nipple before reaching one hand up to fondle her breast while suckling on the other, returning her other hand to her sister's marehood, burying her fingers as deep as she possibly could into her.
Silver’s back arched hard as a scream of ecstasy was forced out of her. “G-G-Gold! Ahhhh! N-not so r-rough!”
She eased up a bit, lessening the depth at which she pushed her fingers in and out of Silver.
The zebra’s scream toned down to loud moans and cute squeals as her arousal leaked out around Gold’s fingers. She clawed helplessly at the floor as the pleasure numbed her mind. “F-fuck… ye~s Oh, Gold y-ye~s!” Silver cried from her state of euphoric daze.
Gold began lightly pinching and tweaking Silver's nipple. Trying to give as much pleasure as possible without being too rough.
“G-Gold, eat me already! I can’t take it anymore!” Silver begged, her whole body writhing in pleasure as Gold took advantage of her. “I-I want that tongue as f-far inside of me as -ahhhh… a-as it’ll go!”
Gold pulled her fingers out and lowered herself to Silver's marehood, licking her lips as she closed the gap between her and her sister's marehood, drawing a long slow lick from the base to her tender clit.
Silver cried out in ecstasy, her back arching in helpless pleasure. She grabbed handfuls of Gold’s mane, trying to pull her closer.
Gold probed Silver's marehood with her tongue teasingly, savouring the taste of her arousal.
The younger sister wrapped her legs over Gold’s shoulders and pulled her closer. “P-please, d-don’t hold back… I-I need you…” Silver moaned out, begging for attention.
Hearing Silver's begging, Gold pushed her tongue into the zebra's marehood as deep as she could go, furiously eating the mare out, swirling it in certain places and grinding it against others.
Silver screamed, her body tensing as she was invaded by her sister’s skilled tongue. The muscle furiously rubbed against the parts of her that only Nirvana had touched, causing all kinds of mind numbing pleasure. “Yes! Oh, Gods yes!” Silver cried. Her mouth hanging open and her tongue hanging out, moaning loudly.
Gold reached for Silver's swollen clit, nudging it with her index finger repeatedly.
The zebra mare squeaked and moaned even louder with every poke and prod of her tender clit, adding to the feeling of her insides being ravaged. She began to feel a pressure build. Silver was close to her climax.
Gold could feel that Silver was getting close by the way her inner walls clenched around her tongue, she doubled her efforts, trying to push Silver over the edge.
Silver felt her body tense. Her grip on Gold’s mane tightened as her thighs clamped down on her sister’s head, holding her in place. She felt it all at once, flooding her mind with bliss. Silver threw her head back and screamed as she came. “H-holy wings of Luna! I-I’m cumming! Ahhhhh! G-Gold!” Her delectable fluids spewed out of her and into the mouth of Gold, getting a little on the mare’s face too.
Gold swallowed as much as she possibly could of Silver's cum before leaning back in and beginning to lick her clean.
Silver had collapsed onto the floor, panting hard from her orgasm. Her mind was still fuzzy and she was momentarily too weak to move. Soft moans escaped Silver as she felt Gold’s tongue glide across her lips again, cleaning the delectable fluids off of her.
Gold was already wet by the time she brought Silver to her climax, with that, she looked up at her sister from where she was. "Looks like it's your turn." She said crawling up and positioning herself face to face with Silver.
Silver blushed, all her forwardness from before was gone. “I-I guess it is.”
Gold rolled over onto her rear propping herself up on her elbows, giving Silver a 'come hither' look. "I just can't bring you to orgasm and not let you do the same to me, that just wouldn't be fair." she said as she pulled her own panties off and tossed them aside revealing her wet marehood that was just waiting for Silver to take advantage of it.
Silver pushed herself up onto her hands and knees and crawled over toward Gold, gazing hungrily at the wet lips, but something held her back from it. “B-but… I’ve never… done that before. W-what if I’m not any good?”
"There's a first time for everything, my dearest little sister, don't be ashamed to at least try." Gold lustfully replied in a soothing tone.
Silver spread Gold’s legs further apart, licking her lips at the closer view of the pegasi’s marehood. “Here goes…” She whispered, before leaning in to give Gold’s clit a sloppy tongue kiss.
Gold let out a small moan as she felt Silver's tongue running along her clit. "Mmmmm… not bad… you're doing well." She breathed.
The zebra shivered with excitement, her arousal growing again as she tasted Gold’s own. Wanting more of the delicious liquids, Silver buried her muzzle into Gold’s crotch and hungrily dug into the meal that was her sister’s marehood, being sloppy on purpose to make it unpredictable.
"Ahhhh… ye~s… ohhhh… gods yes." Gold moaned as she felt Silver's tongue wriggle and squirm within her.
Silver swirled her tongue inside of her sister, licking up as much of her juices as she could. She slowly trailed one of her hands down Gold’s thigh, then across her firm ass, before prodding her puckered tail hole with her middle finger.
The pegasus gasped loudly at the contact. "Ohhhhh… f-fuck… m-more." Gold pleaded through moans.
Silver moved from frenching Gold’s wet lips to suckling on the tender clit, flicking her tongue across it and nibbling on it here and there. She thrust her finger into the mare’s ass, swirling it like she had her tongue.
"Gahhhhhhh… f-fuck yes… Mmmmmm… d-don't stop!" Gold moaned loudly, writhing in the pleasure being given.
She didn’t want to stop, only working her tongue across Gold’s clit a little harder and thrusting her fingers in and out of Gold faster. She wanted to make Gold scream, needed for her to release.
"Ahhhhhhh… yes… Mmmmmm… f-fuck yes!" Gold cried out, her back arching a bit as a familiar pressure began to build up.
Silver pulled her finger out of Gold’s ass, before thrusting it into her gushing pussy, adding her ring finger to it as she thrust them in and out. She lightly bit down on Gold’s clit and flicked her tongue across the delicate nub. ‘Cum for me, Gold. Be mine, just as I am yours.’
"Gahhhhhhh… S-Silver… I-I-I'm gonna… c-cum!" Gold screamed before suddenly seizing up and clamping her legs around Silver's head, her delectable nectar flooding from her pussy and into the zebra's mouth.
Silver greedily drank as much as she could, but still some managed to escape her, spilling down past her chin and dripping onto the floor. The zebra then made to clean up her eldest sister, licking up what’s left of the precious nectar.
Gold collapsed, panting heavily, moaning lightly as she was licked clean.
Once Silver had finished, she crawled up Gold’s form and lay herself across the larger mare’s body. She then lent down and locked lips with her, making sure to let Gold taste her own cum.
Gold was presently to weak to move because of her orgasm, she simply closed her eyes and accepted the kiss, savouring the taste of her own cum.
The two mares were so focussed on making out that neither of them noticed the secret passage open and a certain mare walk in. The loud gasp was what made Silver break the kiss and slowly look over at Heart, blushing like a filly with her hand caught in a cookie jar, or a mare caught with her tongue in her sister. “Ummm… H-hi, Heart…”
