What Path to Choose

That was the start of how Derpy and Drako started their relationship. It was also the night he lost his virginity to the loving mare. She had pulled him close to her after the kiss and put a hoof on his hard member. He hadn’t even noticed how worked up he had gotten until she rubbed it. He soon found himself on top of her pressing his long member deep inside of her.

She did stop him though before he came having him pull out at the last second. He ended up coming all over her chest and face. She giggled as he blushed wondering if he did something wrong. That was until she licked some of it off her face and smiled up at him. He sighed with relief falling next to her and slowly falling asleep.

She woke him before dawn and told him they should both get home before anyone knew they were gone. She also wanted to clean up to get the now dried cum out of her fur. She smiled and kissed her good bye but before he let her go he asked “Does…this mean...”

“That we are dating…well I think we skipped a lot of, “what normal couples” would call dating but I think so…that is if you want too.”

“I DO!” he said really loud and quickly. Then he cleared his throat and said again “I mean I do want to date you. I love you Derpy and I think I have for a long time.”

“I fell in love with you the first day I met you.” She said with a smile then she flew away before he could ask her anything else.

Before long the two of them had shown Dash their Cutie marks and told her what happened that night. She was happy for them and being Rainbow Dash she couldn’t help but tease them on their first time. Also asking them for Detail’s on everything that happened.

“You don’t have to know everything plus you don’t tell me everything you do with your Marefriend.” Said Drako hitting her in the shoulder

“Ex-marefriend now and yes I did. So spill the beans.”

“Fine but wait till later we have flight practice to get too.” Said Drako sighing

“Fine I can live with that.” She said then turned to Derpy “Maybe I should teach you a thing or two before you two do it again.”

“No thanks Dash I think I can figure it out on my own.” Said Derpy giggling “But unlike Drako I won’t mind telling you everything as we go.”

“Sweet this is why you’re the coolest pony I know.”

“And what am I?” asked Drako giving her a fake sad look

“You my friend are the dork who is lucky enough to hang out with the two awesome and sexy mares.”

“Thanks I feel so loved right now.” Said Drako sighing and smiling at the same time.

“Any time buddy.” She said hoofing him in the arm

Derpy just giggled and they made their way to class…

And there it was Drako was happy, Derpy was happy, Dash…well she was always happy or at least she at least acted happy, but she was even more so with her two best friends dating. She was happy for them but also for herself because this gave her more ammo to pull pranks with. And so she did over the next few months she used every opportunity to play joke after joke on them. Most of them funny…some not so much.

Like before Time seemed to fly by without anything big happening. Drako told his parents he was dating Derpy and they were happy for him. They had come to like Derpy over the years as his friend and thought she was a sweet mare. His mother did say something once about her wishing he had given Dash a chance but he laughed that one off. He didn’t have the heart to tell his mother about Dash and her love for other mares more than stallions.

Yeah he had thought about it from time to time over the years. Wondering what it would be like to be with such a wild pony. She loved some really kinky stuff and was always willing to tell him and Derpy all about it. One of his favorites was her story about flying…well falling while making out. Dash and her at the time mare both fell from the sky making out not opening their wings until it was almost too late. But the thoughts of doing something like that with Dash were just that…a thought, a dream, something most stallions would think about if they had a sexy friend like Rainbow Dash.

But back to the point…Drako was happy. He loved Derpy so much that it was almost too painful to be away from her. He found himself going to their meeting place more and more just so he could spend time with her. Some nights they would just fall asleep there. Derpy always wanted him to stay with her until morning but he didn’t want his parents to find out he was staying out all night. Derpy’s parents didn't really care one bit what she did. They had drifted apart more and more over the years.

Derpy told him about it once saying that her father was as mean as ever to her about her being a Klutz and her mother hated Drako and Dash with a passion. She told them once that they were lower class ponies with no future. “You both will end up as weather duty ponies or something low like that while my Derpy could be a business pony like myself. But you two pull her down with you making her an idiot. She used to be such a smart pony but now all I see is a cross eyed idiot when I look at her and it’s entirely your fault.” She had said

That happened a few weeks before Derpy and Drako had kissed for the first time. It made Derpy cry hearing her mother talk like that. Derpy couldn’t understand why she was blaming her problems on Drako and Dash. She was born with her eyes crossed and she couldn’t help being a Klutz. That part of her hadn’t changed over the years.

So Derpy just stuck it out and let her parents say or do what they wanted. She wanted to be with her friends and the pony she loved more than anything. If her parents didn’t like it, well then to bad. It was her life and they would just be missing out on it.

As the months went by then a year soon graduation from Flight school came and went and a new stage in the three friend’s life started. Dash wanted to go to the Wonder bolts Training School for the Flight Gifted and she got in. Derpy took a job as a mail pony because it paid well and it gave her an opportunity to meet new ponies. It also pissed her mother off to no end which was fun too. She also got to fly all over Equestria for her job delivering importuned items. Drako took a job at the flights school as the new flight coach.

All three loved their new lives and thought it would be like this forever. Drako soon moved out into his own place closer to the school. Derpy moved in with Dash at her new place near the Training Camp where she would be starting later in the fall. Their apartments were only two blocks apart. Drako didn’t mind this new life at all. In reality he would have loved if Derp could have moved in with him but he was saving that up as a surprise for her.

The one big part of Drako’s Life that had changed a lot over the past year or so was his relationship with Scootaloo. Most siblings with a bigger age difference like himself and Scoot would have drifted apart as one got older, but not him and Scoot. He had an extra bedroom at his place that was set up just for her. And she used it more often than not. She loved hanging out with her brother and with Derpy and Dash.

Drako loved her so much; she was a smart little filly and acted much older than most fillies her age. It was one of the best traits she had. His sister meant the world to him and he would do anything to make her happy just like he would for Dash or Derpy. His only wished she could fly, he wanted nothing more than the four of them to be able to fly around Cloudsdale someday. He knew that her wings were almost ready for he to fly do to a new exercise the doctor had her do.

He told her to flap them as hard as she could every day for an hour or more to work on the muscles. She liked the idea of it but found it boring so right after graduation Drako had given her a Scooter that worked in the clouds and on the ground. She could flap her wings as hard as she wanted and use that to power the scooter around. To his surprise she did it and was a fast little one on it after some time.

It looked like the summer would be the best one yet…or so he though. Little did Drako know at the time that it was going to be the worst one in his life. One he would never be able to forget…

It was mid August and Drako’s Parents were visiting him sitting drinking tea in the warm afternoon sun. His father smiled at him and said “So when are you going to ask that Sweet Derpy to marry you huh son?”

“Dad!” said Drako almost chocking on his tea “I just got out of School a few months ago. I’m not ready to ask her yet plus we haven’t even moved in together yet.”

“So your mother and I got married right out of school and we been happy for almost twenty years.” Said his father laughing

“Yeah I know and it was her love and support that got you through law school just like you did the same for mom with the police academy.” Said Drako with a sigh

His mother giggled then changed the subject seeing her son getting worked up “So I can tell Scoot really likes staying over here. It’s really sweet of you to take her in like that. She is still a really young filly and needs the support of her big brother. You don’t act like most older brothers would with a younger sibling like Scoot. We are proud of you, and not just for that but in how well you are starting out in life.”

“Thanks mom…here I thought you two wanted to come over to tell me you wanted me to go to college instead of working at the school. I love it there the summer school kids are really good they just needed someone more their age to show them the ropes. I can’t wait for the new year to start.” Drako said smiling

“It’s your life to live sweetie…but we did come by today for a reason.” Said his mother

“Oh and what is that?” Drako asked looking a little worried

“Well you see your father and I wanted to ask you to do something for us…um dear do you want to ask him?” said his mother directing the last part toward her husband

His father looked serious now and said “Yes…you see son we have put it down in our wills that if something should happen to us that Scootaloo will come live with you instead of my mother like we had planned on. Scoot loves you so much I think sending her to Manehattan would be the worst thing in the world to do to her. She has friends in Cloudsdale and she would miss you too much. But we won’t do this if you don’t like the idea.”

Drako looked at them shocked for a moment, and then she smiled and said “Having a little twit like my sister around all the time? I guess I could get used to that she almost lives here as it is. It’s not like I would have a problem with it in the slightest. But why would you worry so much about it right now anyway it’s not like something is going to happen to you.”

“Well you see son …” Started his father but his mother cut him off

“You’re right son we just wanted to make sure things are in place just in case you know.”

He smiled “Um…ok if you say so.”

They finished up their tea then Drako said good bye to his parents and made his way over to Dash’s place to see what she was up too. She had been really lonely lately with Derpy out of town in Canterlot filling in for a mail pony who was out sick for a while.

He knocked on her door but no one answered. He sighed and figured she was sleeping the afternoon away like normal up on her balcony. He flapped his wings and flew up to it. No one was there. He sighed again and landed on it walking over to the sliding glass door pushing it open. Dash wasn’t in her living room either.

He walked in and looked around then a loud bang came from inside the bed room and he ran to it. He opened the door fast and yelled “Dash are you ok…….” His words were cut short by the sight of Dash on top of some purple mare the two of them going at it like there was no tomorrow. He blushed as he watched his friend press her tongue deep into the other Pegasus’s soft folds moaning some as the other did the same to her on the other side of the bed.

Dash looked up at the sound of the door opening. But instead of screaming like a normal pony would have done she just smiled and went back to work winking at him. He noticed her wings were erect, something they didn’t do often and he found it extremely attractive. He shook his head and turned away blushing harder.

“I’m sorry Dash I didn’t mean to.” He said turning away from the sight of the two mares going at it. He couldn’t help his own wings almost popping up at the sight of Dash slowly licking up the other mare’s soft folds taking in the small bits of her juice that was flowing from her, or also the sound of the mare moaning behind her coming close to an orgasm.

Drako was about to walk out when he heard a scream of pleasure from the other mare then Dash saying “Hey Drake don’t go flying off I’ll be right out.”

He sighed and turned to sit on her couch waiting. After a few minutes the purple pony stormed out yelling “You are just like they say, have fun then leave. You’ll regret this one day Rainbow Dash trust me.” And she stormed out the front door.

“Who was that anyway?” asked Drako as Dash walked out of her bed room still smelling of the other mare

“One of the instructors at my school, and before you get any ideas no I did not sleep with her to get anywhere in the school. She just hit on me at the market today and well you saw what happened. I didn’t know she was an instructor there until a few moments ago. So I told her to go home I didn’t need to be banging my teachers. I have some standers you know.” Said Dash sitting down on the Couch next to him

“And she didn’t care that I walked in on you two?”

“Nope she asked if you could join us after I finished her off and you walked out. I told her you had a marefriend and wouldn’t do it anyway, plus unlike your Derpy I don’t sleep with my friends no matter how cute they are.” Giggled Dash winking at him

“Oh so I’m cute now am I.” laughed Drako

“I never said anything about you. I do have other friends you know.”

“Sure you do and I’m an Earth Pony.” He joked

“Funny you have some really odd things on your back then for an Earth Pony.” Said Dash giggling.

“And your mane is the perfect color for a lesbian.” He joked, it was his main one to use on her to get her going

“How many times do I have to tell you I’m bi and my mane has nothing to do with that.” She said getting a little upset

“I know, I know I was only kidding and you know it. So any word from Derp on when she’ll be home she’s been gone for three weeks now.” Said Drako

“She sent us a letter today saying she would be home tonight. But I’m a little worried because the letter was kind of scribbled and had tear stains on it, here look.” Said Dash handing him a piece of paper

He looked down at it and read the letter

Hey Dashy,

Miss you loads and Drako too. I’m sorry I haven’t written much…well at all since I left. It’s just things have been really hard here in Canterlot and well…I can’t seem to make myself feel better. I can’t write Drako right now because every time I try I start crying. Something happened and I can’t tell you in a letter so I will do so when I get home. I should be back the night you get this letter I’m hoping at least. Tell Drako to meet us at the apartment…and I’m sorry. You’ll understand what this means later.

Love,

Derpy Hooves

Drako looked a little taken aback by the letter. He looked back up at his friend and said “What do you think this means?”

“I’m not sure but you know Derp she over reacts to just about any little thing that happens to her. She probably bumped into the Princess or something and thinks she is going to get banished for it.” Said Dash smiling back at him “Don’t worry too much I’m sure it’s nothing big.”

He smiled for a moment “Maybe she ate the world’s biggest muffin my mistake and made the royal court chief mad or something.”

“Yeah sounds like something I could see her doing. You know her when it comes to muffins. But seriously I think everything will be ok. I mean it’s Derpy we never have to worry too much about her.” Said Rainbow Dash

Drako sighed and looked out the window “I guess not. I just hope you’re right Dash.”

“Oh come on cheer up.” Said Dash putting a hoof around his shoulders

He smiled still looking out the window. Suddenly five red and gold flashes zoomed by the window. Drako jumped then said “Was that the Fire patrol?”

“I think so.” Said Rainbow Dash getting up and walking out onto her balcony looking over in the direction they flew. He saw her face go from mildly interested to horror. She turned quickly, her face seemed to of lost all its color as she said “Drako there is black smoke coming from the part of Cloudsdale that your parents house is.”

Drako was on his hooves “We have to go make sure everything is ok Scootaloo is home today.”

“Lets go.” said Dash jumping into the air along with him and flying off toward the smoke

It didn’t take long for them to reach the tall building that was once Drako’s home. It was a marvelous building, made of the best magic wood and soft clouds in Cloudsdale. The wood was enchanted to be built on the clouds so they could live in a more privet home. But now it was a storm of fire and smoke every inch of it covered in the destructive force.

Drako tried to run toward the building but was stopped by a large fire pony “Hey now kid it’s too dangerous. The building is about to come down.”

“But my sister may be in there and my parents I’m not sure if they went to work today or not.” Said Drako

“Let him by Chief.” Said Dash looking just as scared as Drako did

“No one is in the building as far as we can…” started the Chief but then a high pitched scream came from in the building

“SCOOTALOOOOOO!!!!” yelled Drako pushing the larger pony out of his way and taking to the air and diving straight into the burning building

He heard someone yelling at him to stop but he ignored them. He dove right into Scoot’s room but she wasn’t there. He looked around franticly trying to figure out where she was. Then he heard another scream and it came from his old room. He dove into the hall ignoring the burns he was getting on his body from the intense heat. He burst through the door and the sight that met his eyes was one he would never forget for the rest of his life.

His mother was pinned under a beam. It looked like it had fallen on her and broke her back. He could tell from the way she was laying there that she was dead. Her eyes were open and glassy looking at nothing. He felt hot tears running down his face. He knew now that the last scream he heard must have been from her as she died. He was too late he thought until he heard a tiny cough from near his mother.

He ran forward and hoped that maybe she was still alive but he was wrong. Under her hoof was his sister passed out next to her, her breathing shallow. He picked her up in his hooves and started to fly toward the way out but as he got near the door another beam feel and as it did it caught on something and changed cores hitting him across face and left eye. He swore feeling blood flowing down his face.

He didn’t let it stop him though and he pushed passed it one eye open now and made his way out of his room, back into Scoot’s room and through the still open window. He dove toward the clouds below landing hard. He held Scoot close to him not wanting to let her go.

He heard someone telling him to let go and them pulling at Scoot but he couldn’t let go. He closed his eyes and he passed out holding his sister close to his chest…
