For both Twilight and the Cakes, upsetting Pinkie Pie was something they liked to avoid. Whenever she was miserable, the whole town felt darker.

Getting a black envelope commonly meant that somepony special had passed away recently, and to find Pinkie’s name as the recipient filled Twilight and Mr. Cake with dread. “She has a right to know…” Mr. Cake said, breaking the long silence.

“I never said anything about her not seeing this letter, I just… it’s hard,” Twilight retorted weakly, wincing as she held the envelope in her magic.

They both looked up the stairs, wincing as Pinkie hopped down the stairs. “Goooood MORNING everypony!” Pinkie greeted with her usual jovial, energetic self. She noticed that Twilight and Mr. Cake looked a bit down and immediately went to rectify it. “Come on you gloomy gusses, turn those frown upside down!”

“Pinkie…” Twilight uttered. She lifted a hoof, only to have it hold a cupcake immediately.

“That’s nice, Pinkie but-” Mr. Cake was interrupted by a cookie in his mouth, the rich chocolate taste melting on his tongue.

Pinkie puffed her chest in pride, happy with a job well done… or so she thought, Mr. Cake and Twilight still looked sad. “Hmm, this looks like a job for a party, give me a half hour and the bestest party you’ll ever see will be here and you’ll be smiling in no time!”

Twilight and Mr. Cake glanced to each other as the black envelope hovered over to the pink mare. Pinkie saw it and gasped. “Oh no, who died? I’m so sorry Twilight. I was so insensitive about that- I’ll make it up to you, a double party, a party to make you remember the good times!”

“Pinkie… this is for you,” Mr. Cake said, as the letter floated into Pinkie’s hooves.

“For… me?” Pinkie asked, her good mood soured as she opened it and read the letter.

Twilight and Mr. Cake shared hurtful looks as Pinkie deflated as every second passed, her mane losing it’s bubbly form and falling to her side. “Pinkie?” they said in unison.

“G-Grammy?” Pinkie uttered, almost too quiet for either pony to hear.

Twilight stepped forward, a weak smile on her face. “So, how about we set up that party to help you remember the good times you had with your grandmother. Whaddya say?”

Pinkie finished the letter and dropped it. “Sorry, Twilight. I wanna be alone for a bit,” she said, turning and slowly walking back to her room.

Watching Pinkie walk away hurt Mr. Cake and Twilight. Even as Mrs. Cake left the back to see the aftermath. “Carrot, dear! I need some help- What did I miss? Why is Pinkie crying?”

Twilight flashed an apologetic smile to Mr. Cake. “Sorry, I need to get back to the library. I’ll do what I can to get Pinkie back to her cheerful self.”

Mr. Cake was about to protest but Twilight was already out the door, with his wife directly behind him. “What happened? Why is Pinkie sad?”

Mr. Cake could only chuckle nervously as he pointed the the letter. “Sorry, honey.”

~dood~[/hr]

Today, the impossible happened. Ruby Pie, the bestest grandma Pinkie ever had… passed away at the age of one hundred nineteen. While this does explain why she stopped writing a few months ago when she told her about her little Pinkie being a part of a herd, she often thought that her Grammy didn’t like it at all and just stopped writing immediately, which hurt the party maker’s feelings but she always thought something big came up.

Knowing why her Grammy never wrote back didn’t make it hurt any less, however. Pinkie huddled against her bed, lightly sobbing into her hooves. She could remember her grandma teaching her to laugh at ghosts in her closet if they try to spook her, teaching her to stand up to Limestone when she gets all mean with smiles, finding the good in bad times, helping her further understand her cutie mark being about more than just making parties, but to make ponies happy and always keep them smiling all over.

She felt her pet alligator, Gummy, licking her hind leg, his eyes blankly staring into the distance. “Oh Gummy, I know you’re trying to cheer me up, but… Grammy meant a lot to me, you know. She’s like… my Princess Celestia if I was Twilight or… Rainbow Dash to my Scootaloo. We used to write all the time, share stories, have great laughs, make funny balloon animals, and… now what is there, Gummy? I still don’t even know if she was okay with the herd thing.”

Gummy’s response was biting Pinkie, which did nothing but cover her hind leg in saliva, his tongue trying to wrap around the large limb. The party planner could only smile in response. “I know you’re trying to cheer me up, Gummy. I just… wanna be alone, right now. Sorry.”

As the pink pony sobbed into her pillow, she heard a soft knock on the door. “Could you please leave me alone right now? I’m party pooped,” Pinkie groaned, burying her head into a nearby pillow.

Mrs. Cake poked her head into the room and gave her an apologetic look. “I heard about what happened, dearie.” She got no answer. “I brought up your favorite; triple chocolate strawberry cupcakes.” The blue mare turned to pick up a plate of cupcakes in her teeth and placed it on Pinkie’s nightstand.

“Not hungry,” Pinkie mumbled, not rising from her bed.

Mrs. Cake frowned, hurt that the bubbly bundle of happiness was so downtrodden. “When you are ready to talk about it, come down and we’ll talk. It’ll help.”

Pinkie barely heard Mrs. Cake leave, too busy thinking about all the fun times she had that she’ll never have again with her Grammy.

While the party maker softly weep into her covers, Chrysalis watched Twilight prepare for something from the opening to the basement. The Queen was bored and was close to returning to her old habits of kidnapping the purple mare. “What are you doing?”

“What does it look like?” Twilight asked, mildly annoyed by the changeling’s grumblings.

Chrysalis examined the mess her Alpha made, streamers all over the room. Balloons lying on the ground, most inflated but others simply laid there, slowly deflating. The banner, which appeared to be hanging by a weak thread, said 'Always remember the good times and learn from the bad times. We’re here for you, Pinkie Pie!'. Confetti lay in large piles at the corners of the library. “It looks like you have no idea what you are doing.”

“I am preparing a party for Pinkie, she’s feeling down so I’m gonna try and throw a party for her and invite everypony in Ponyville,” Twilight stated, trying to fix her banner with her magic. “How does Pinkie do this all the time?”

“She is an impossible mare, that’s how,” Chrysalis commented, stepping out from her domain and into the kitchen.

“Does Pinkie exhale helium? I don’t understand how she can blow these up and they stay afloat for hours,” Twilight groaned trying to fix her balloons. “Chrysalis!”

“Busy…” she responded, annoyed that her physical meal was interrupted.

“Come here and help!” Twilight ordered, glaring at the kitchen’s opening.

“I don’t care about your friends!”

Twilight grit her teeth in anger. “Fine, no pregnancies for a month!”

Chrysalis poked her head out, swallowing a sandwich she made. “You wouldn’t dare…” she growled, glaring at her supposed Alpha.

“Wanna try me?” Twilight taunted. Their eyes narrowing at each other, looking for any weakness to exploit.

Chrysalis let out an annoyed groan as she walked over. “Fine, what am I doing, oh, Slave Driver?”

“Could you fix the banner? It doesn’t want to stay up there. Now, I need to deal with catering and explain to the girls my plans for Pinkie,” Twilight said, turning to leave the library. Chrysalis looked at the mess her caretaker had made and bit her lip, trying not to rage and yell as she went back to order her sprites to do the work for her.

During her errands, Twilight noticed Pinkie heading to the train station. “Pinkie? Where are you going?”

Pinkie looked up at her mate with a weak smile. “I’m gonna go pay my respects to Grammy. I won’t be back until later tonight… maybe early tomorrow.”

Concerned for her friend and lover, Twilight glanced around and nodded. “If you give me a few minutes, I could come with you for moral support.”

“You don’t have to, Twilight. Besides, isn’t it Fleur’s day today?” Pinkie asked, trying to reassure her mate that she’s fine.

“Emergencies take priority over the schedule. I want to help you Pinkie, in any way that I can,” Twilight added. “I don’t like seeing my friends, especially my lovers, hurting.”

Pinkie gave the unicorn a small smile, nodding her approval. “Okie dokie, I haven’t bought my ticket to the rock farm yet, so meet me there when you’re ready, okay?”

Twilight nodded and teleported away, leaving Pinkie with a bittersweet feeling. She wanted to spend some time with the family, reminiscing about Grammy. But Twilight always tried her best to put a smile on Pinkie’s face, and nine times out of ten, she’d succeed. Her smile slowly reforming as she walked over to the train station.

~dood~[/hr]

‘She really didn't have to do all that, Pinkie thought, softly petting Twilight’s head as they rode the train. The silly unicorn had teleported all over Ponyville in the span of ten minutes for some reason, probably to tell them where she’ll be for the rest of the day, the overuse of magic draining the purple mare quickly as her head laid onto Pinkie’s side. “Hey Twi-Twi? Why did you teleport all over the place?”

Twilight mumbled, nuzzling Pinkie’s hooves and belly. “Mmm… it’s a secret…”

Pinkie giggled, knowing full well that Twilight had probably tried to throw a party for her to cheer her up, but this probably delayed her plans pretty badly, a feeling Pinkie knew too well. She’ll have to try her best to act twice as surprised for Twilight’s party when they returned, touched that Twilight would do this for her. Then again, she did have a heart to heart with Applejack at the bottom of a hole after the cowpony kidnapped her; somehow managed to explain and coerce Fluttershy out of being super mean, though Discord helped a bit; saved Rarity’s career from a changeling that wanted to steal her work; and while Rainbow did most of the loyalty work herself, Twilight still helped Rainbow Dash keep her promise to Scootaloo while she flew with the Wonderbolts for a day.

It was enough to make Pinkie wonder if there was something about this, the five cores elements of harmony in a polygamous relationship with the element that binds them together and that binding would go out and help them with situations that involves each element, however vague and forced it might be to jump to that conclusion. She just smiled and leaned into her lover, enjoying rare quiet time they have together.

“Next Stop! Limestone Rock Farm!” The conductor announced, causing Pinkie to rouse Twilight from her slumber.

“Wakey, wakey, sleepy… we’re here.”

With a yawn, Twilight slowly rose up and glanced out the window before looking to Pinkie. “Morning Pinkie,” she said, kissing the party mare.

Pinkie let the kiss linger a bit longer than necessary before breaking it. “Come on, Maud is waiting for us.”

This caused Twilight to flinch, eyes widening as she remembered her last encounter with Pinkie’s older sister. “Oh, not… Marble? Or at least Limestone?”

“Nope. Guess that last time with the choosing rock did a number on you,” Pinkie said, chuckling nervously as the memory of Maud’s expedition came to mind.

“Pinkie, just hearing Maud’s name caused my crotch to feel like somepony kicked it,” Twilight said, looking a bit hesitant to continue forward.

But the party pony wasn’t having any of that, and pulled Twilight off the train. Just as Pinkie said, Maud Pie was waiting for them on the platform. “Maud, oh you’re looking good! I’m so happy to see you! How’s everyone been?”

The grey mare only stared at Pinkie with unflinching eyes that made Twilight think of the portraits that just stared at passersby. “It’s good to see you Pinkie Pie. Everyone is as well as can be expected.” She glanced to Twilight, making the unicorn jump in shock. “You brought your Alpha. This is good. Mom and Dad want to meet her.”

“Hi… Maud,” Twilight greeted weakly, waving her hoof as she joined the Pie sisters.

“Did you learn the spell I asked you to learn?” Maud asked, just as they began their trek back to the rock farm.

Twilight swallowed her breath, knowing that as soon as she got home after that. She not only learned and tested the spell Maud was referring to, but she buried every book on the subject as soon as she remembered what Maud did to the boulders to save Pinkie when they first met. “Almost, it’s a really tricky spell.”

“Okay, hopefully you’ll complete it soon,” Maud replied, as monotone as ever. Pinkie turned and smiled to Twilight as they walked.

After a few minutes of Pinkie and Maud talking about rocks and Twilight trying to keep up, they reached the family rock farm. Out front, Twilight could see the quarry just outside the small picketed fence surrounded the small farm house, some crystals and rocks littering the yard. Two mares stood outside the farmhouse, a bluish grey mare with a short opal grey mane, talking to a mare quivering on the ground, who was a turquoise grey with dark cyan grey mane.

“Limestone! Marble!” Pinkie cried out, zipping over to her sisters and giving them a big hug. Twilight couldn’t help but giggle as Marble tried to vanish under her mane while Limestone appeared ready to scream at her sister for her temerity. She then noticed their cutie marks, the angrier Limestone’s cutie mark was of a lime with two rocks below it while Marble’s were three purple marbles.

Twilight felt her mirth fade when the door opened, revealing two older ponies; an amber stallion with two streaks of grey in his mane wearing a wide brim hat with a tie and collar, his cutie mark a pickaxe. The cobalt grey mare had her grayish opal mane up in a bun, with a shawl around her neck and a pair of glasses held on by a chain that kept them from falling off and hitting the ground; three rocks happened to be her cutie mark. They smiled fondly when they saw Pinkie but immediately grew serious when they noticed Twilight. “Pinkamena, is this she?” the stallion questioned.

Pinkie turned to her father, releasing her sisters before standing next to Twilight. “Yessirree-doodle! This is MY alpha!” the party maker exclaimed, wrapping a foreleg around her mate’s neck.

“Pinkamena, you know what this means, do you not?” Pinkie’s father said sternly. Pinkie wilted, weakly smiling as Twilight gave her a curious look. “Get the choosing stone.”

“Oh no,” Twilight uttered, watching Pinkie walk away. She noticed the Pie family all staring at her. “Uhh, Hello. My name is Twilight Sparkle, pleasure to make your acquaintance. I-I’m sorry about your loss.”

“I am Igneous Rock Pie, son of Feldspar Granite Pie. This is my wife, Cloudy Quartz,” the stallion said. His wife nodded, their expressions remained neutral. He then gestured to his daughters. “While you have met Maud Pie and Pinkamena Diane Pie. These are my two remaining daughters: Limestone Pie and Marble Pie. Fret not, for Mother Ruby is with the earth now.”

The lighter grey sister weakly waved, still shaking nervously while the other bolted up to Twilight. “So… you’re this ‘Alpha’ Pinkie wrote about in her letters, huh?”

“I-uh, yes? That’s what everyone keeps telling me and that I’ve begun accepting,” Twilight answered, unnerved by Limestone’s forwardness.

“Listen here you scrawny horn-head. Ma and Pa might own this farm but I run it, so you try anything to my sister while you’re here. I’m going to shove your horn right up your butt, got it?” Limestone growled, her face an inch away from Twilight’s.

“That’s usually Pinkie’s idea to-” Twilight flinched when Limestone intensified her glare. “Crystal clear, ma’am.”

Soon, Pinkie arrived with a large boulder sporting dents on one side, dropping it before her family. “I’m back! What I miss?”

“Limestone was bonding with Twilight,” Maud said. Though, Limestone had already walked back to her sister while Twilight stood completely still.

“Awesome!” Pinkie replied, darting to her Alpha and giving her a kiss on the cheek.

“Pinkamena,” Igneous walked to her pink daughter and gave her a small rock. “Let us see if this mare is your mate.”

Pinkie looked down at the small pebble and glanced to Twilight. She looked hesitant, nervous that the stone wouldn’t choose Twilight but she took aim, ready to throw it at the choosing stone and let fate decide who she should be with for her family.

She threw as hard as she can, the pebble rebounded off the choosing stone, and hit Twilight between the eyes, sending her to the dirt as quickly as it happened. Limestone was furious, Marble stared in awe, Maud remained impassive, or rather, looked passive. Pinkie was ready to jump for joy as Twilight slowly got up. “I did it! Twilight’s my mate! She’s my-” the pink mare’s mood dropped as her father and mother didn’t share her mirth. She chuckled nervously and grabbed the pebble she threw, and gave it to the recovering unicorn. “Your turn, hope you hit me.”

Twilight, still trying to sooth the pain of getting hit in the face by a rock, levitated the rock and got ready to fire it. However, Pinkie stopped her. “Twilight, gotta throw with your hoof, not with magic!”

“Oh, sorry,” the scholar said apologetically. She let the pebble land in her hoof and aimed at the boulder. She still wasn’t sure how this thing worked, but the Pie family appeared to be greatly engrossed in whether or not it would deem her and Pinkie a couple, but what of her herd?

“Go for it, Twily!” Pinkie cheered. Feeling invigorated, Twilight threw it as hard as she could.

The rock bounced off the boulder and was sent back at Twilight. Scared, the unicorn put up a shield, ricocheting the rock back at the boulder, which bounced off that and went low, popping off the ground and nailing the scholar between the legs. Twilight’s eyes began to water, mouth clamped tightly as she fell to the ground in pain.

Pinkie rushed to Twilight’s side, with Maud walking over with her. Marble winced, unable to watch the unicorn writhe. Limestone shook her head, looking to her father in confusion.

Igneous’ jaw dropped, staring at Twilight with awe. “I have never witnessed this before. Never had the choosing stone made such a choice,” he said, falling back on his rump. He moved his hat to his chest, feeling his wife’s hoof on his side. “She truly is an Alpha.”

“What do you mean?” Limestone asked, looking to the slowly rising unicorn.

“When the choosing stone picks you to be your own mate, it means you are going to lead a herd,” Igneous explained, looking to the choosing stone. “The last Alpha was chosen four hundred years ago.”

It was then Cloudy who began to smile. “This is wondrous news, Igneous. For if Our daughter’s mate is an Alpha, it must mean that the family will grow with countless offspring.”

“While they may not be of our blood, they will still be of our family,” Igneous said, standing back up with the aid of his wife. “But enough, we must go and see to our dearly departed, and help her rest within the earth.”

“Did- didn’t you say she was already in the earth?” Twilight asked, slowly recovering from her injury.

“We were waiting on Pinkie to arrive before we return her to the land and send her to the great plains of beyond,” Maud replied as the family began to walk into the house.

As the family entered the house, Pinkie helped Twilight walk in. “Wow, you must have thrown that super hard, Twily,” the party mare exclaimed.

“I thought that was what I was supposed to do,” Twilight whimpered, limping alongside her mate. Pinkie spun Twilight around and they left as quickly as they entered as Igneous carried an ornate gold vase with a handle in his teeth, the family following him out as they made their way to the cliff overseeing the quarry.

The lone stallion in the group placed the urn down and looked over the chasm below him, the many pink, purple, light blue, and the few orange crystals that jutted from the mining pit depths. “We, the Family Pie, have gathered here. To welcome Ruby-in-Fuchsite Pie to the land, so we may know she rests with our creator, for her welcoming hooves honours us by accepting one of our own unto her midst. So let us not mourn the deceased but be grateful to our great mother for giving Ruby a place in her eternal herd.”

Twilight heard Pinkie sniffling next to her, trying to smile. She nudged her and pulled the pink mare close to her, the party mare nuzzled into her Alpha’s embrace. Pinkie’s sisters took notice of this but didn’t say anything, Marble and Maud smiled at the display while Limestone grunted in annoyance.

“Mother Earth, please continue to bless our family, and watch over the new family, a new bountiful herd that my daughter had entered, just as the choosing stone decreed not moments ago,” Twilight couldn’t help but blush at the older stallion’s words. “Just as we reap the rewards of your bounty, you do the same, allowing our kin an eternal spot alongside you. In your name. Amen.”

“Amen,” everyone said, Twilight was a bit off sync with the rest but it wasn’t noticed or cared about. Igneous went to pick up the urn and began dumping ash out of it, letting the wind pick it up and scatter ole Granny Pie to the corners of Equestria.

Though her family went inside to prepare dinner, Pinkie stayed behind to watch her Granny go, still sniffling a bit as the ash became too small to see. “I miss her already.”

Twilight smiled softly, hugging her mare tighter to her body. Her brow perked when she realized something. “You know, I don’t think I’ve ever… learned about Ruby, your grandmother. I’d like to know how great of a pony was to you.”

Pinkie looked up with eyes shining like stars. “Oh you BET! She’d come to the farm almost every week to play with me and my sisters, bringing rock candies and mud pies for us to snack on. Dad never really liked it but Granny always had a say on what was right and wrong thanks to the Responsibility Ruby!”

“The Responsibility Ruby?” Twilight asked, curious if the gem was the same as the choosing stone.

Pinkie couldn’t help but giggle, still leaning into her marefriend’s warmth. “Yup, it’s normally black but when a pony holds it, it turns red. The pony who makes it the brightest colour of red is the most responsible and gets to call the shots when it comes to kids. Where was I- Oh yeah. This one time, I got lost in the Quarry…”

~dood~[/hr]

“Surprise!” Everyone cheered within town hall just as Pinkie and Twilight entered. Pinkie’s jaw nearly hit the floor in awe of what she saw. There was confetti, streamers, balloons all over the room. Everyone pony in town was there, even Princess Luna, who had arrived moments before they had. A large banner that read ‘Keep Smiling, Pinkie Pie’ in bright pink was held high in the center of the room, and just below that was a six tier cake, in bright pink and blue frosting, each layer had a line of icing in the colour of one of Pinkie’s best friends around it.

“Oh my gosh! A surprise party? For me? You guys shouldn’t have!” Pinkie cheered, hopping over to greet her friends.

Twilight nearly crawled in, her body trying to kill her after the trial she had to endure for Pinkie Pie. Applejack had walked over to Twilight in concern, soon joined by Trixie, Luna, and Fluttershy. “You alright, sugarcube?”

“Please… tell me we have real food,” Twilight groaned, struggling to stand.

“Applejack and the Cakes provided the catering. Why?” Fluttershy asked, worried about her Alpha.

“Pinkie’s family eat rocks, I can’t. And they kept giving me more, my digestive system is punishing me,” Twilight groaned, Trixie having run off to get her Mistress some food.

Luna looked up and smiled as Pinkie’s smile seemed brighter than she remembered, jumping around, greeting ponies, hugging ponies, cracking jokes, doing the impossible and make Chrysalis crack a sincere smile from her shadowed corner. “It appears that Pinkie has recovered rather well, whatever you did must have been very effective.”

Twilight took a seat next to the wall and sighed, a smile gracing her lips. “That’s just it, Pinkie did most of it herself, I was just there to help her along,” she explained. She noticed Pinkie springing over to her to plant a big kiss on her cheek and placing a sizable piece of cake before her. “You really are the happiest pony alive.”

“Only when my best of friends are here with me,” Pinkie said, pulling Applejack and Twilight into a big hug.

As Pinkie’s party started to pick up, Magic shook in excitement deep within the scholar’s subconscious. Smartypants, Brave, Star, and Grace standing behind her as the host laughed with her herd. "The set is complete, Magic?"

“Yessirree!” Magic squealed with delight. “Now it can finally happen! Ohh I’ve been waiting for such a long time for this moment.”

"Care to explain what that is now that it had occurred?" Smartypants demanded, staring intently at the purple filly.

"If she’s this excited, it must be pretty extraordinary," Grace giggled, leaning into Brave’s larger frame.

“I’ll explain when we get to my special room,” Magic announced, hopping off the table and sprinting out the room. The others quickly chased after her, the giggling filly leading them to the room with the hostess’ cutie mark surrounded by the marks of her friends.

Despite her excitement, something made Magic feel uneasy. It didn’t help that the door was slightly open. “Wait, why is it open?”

While Magic slowed to a halt, Brave and Smartypants pushed past her while Star and Grace went to the filly’s side. They knew exactly what had happened and had to stop Juliet from doing something she’ll regret.

The circular room was rather sparse, save for a lone table with six indents and a large sphere floating in the center. Unfortunately, there was no sign of Juliet.

"I know that whore is here. FIND HER!" Brave ordered, immediately entering the room and giving it a once over.

Smartypants decided to let Brave do what she desired, being more interested in the sphere in the room. "Magic, what is this orb for?"

Magic slowly shuffled into the room, with Grace and Star following her. Magic looked up and gaped, her expression was one of shock, hurt that somepony she trusted that had betrayed her. “Auntie Alpha… why?”

"What happened? Do you know what Juliet is?" Brave demanded, marching up to the horrified filly. Grace shot her significant other a dark look, causing Brave to hesitate before taking her next step.

Magic did all she could to not cry as she lifted her hoof to the sphere. “That’s… Twilight’s destiny. If I enter it, she would become an alicorn, like Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. I don’t know what would happen if a thought or conscious enters it, but I don’t think it’ll be good. So much work… wasted.”

Smartypants walked forward, raising a hoof to the large sphere, only for it to repel her, red static electricity arcing all over the orb. "Whatever it is, it won’t accept another user."

“We-we still have a chance, the room is still grey…. we just need to get her out before it turns purple and we can still turn Twilight into an Alicorn!” Magic exclaimed, running up to the sphere and attempting to push it. Unlike its reaction to Smartypants, the sphere did not repel Magic but did nothing to allow her access.

Brave created a battle axe and a lance out of magic and sent them to the sphere. Grimacing when the weapons disintegrated instantly.

"May I try?" Magic asked weakly. She shed her manacles and motioned for Grace to remove her suppressor.

"Star, don’t you try it… you’ll damage the host with your power!" Twilight’s intelligence warned, as her source of magic began to glow a bright white light, aiming her horn for the sphere.

Brave instinctively took Grace away from Star and held her tightly, using her body to shield her wife from the possible repercussions of the mage’s attack.

At full power, Star let her magic go, sending a overcharged ball of magic at the sphere. Only to watch it rebound back at her. She wasn’t ready to be met with her own power and was knocked unconscious by the attack.

In the real world, Twilight’s head began to hurt, her magic failing her as her drink fell to the floor. “Oh… uhh, weird,” the scholar muttered, trying to use her magic to pick the cup up and clean the mess but her horn wouldn’t respond, not even sparks would fly from her horn when she tried to cast a spell. “What’s going on? Did someone slip me some anti-magic drugs again?”

Back inside the purple mare’s mind. They all shuddered when they felt the power weaken. Brave tried to conjure a weapon but to no avail. "Damn it all, without Star we can’t use magic. How are we supposed to deal with this now?"

Magic slumped down, defeated. She walked over to Star and nestled herself in the unconscious mare’s hooves and softly weep. “We have to wait… for Juliet’s desires to become reality. That is the will of the Elements.”

Author's Note

Looked at by refferee and Wrabbit, dood.

Holy shit, did this take way to long to do, dood.

Also, re-reading this made me realize that I never answered Pinkie's question of whether or not Granny Pie was all for the herd thing. Pretend it's a 'yes', dood.

So know, Juliet/Alpha/Twilight's Lust is doing some shit and the others are pissed... except Magic who is crying that she can't do her job. Fortunatly for you guys, I know EXACTLY what's gonna happen in the next few chapters... and they will have sex, dood.

It's too late at night for me to finish up the sex scene in the next chapter so I'll try to stab that on the weekend, dood... all the while I try not to think about scenes I could be doing for my RWBY thing, or other possible ideas, dood.

The Next chapter will have Juliet forcing Celestia to bite the pillow while the real Twilight wakes up in Azeroth... with some Worgen chick riding her cock while a Night Elf makes her preform cunninlingus... all while Garuda from FF14 watches, unsure if she wants to join or find some other character that I've futa-formed to fuck all day. Only one-sixth of this whole thing is true, dood... maybe less.
