You didn't know what happened but you must have fallen asleep waiting for news about Roseluck. You open your eyes and find your not in the hospital anymore but in some sort of grey room. You start to panic as you realise there’s no way out, you screech and shrill as you slither around the room. You come to a dead stop when a hidden door in the farthest wall from you opens and a figure walks through.

“You are awake, that is good.”

You instantly recognise the voice and quickly try to get away, you had no idea why she instilled such fear in you but it was always your natural instinct to run when ever she got within a mile of you.

Princess Celestia walks into the small beam of light coming down from a gem in the ceiling. Her gaze burns into you and you shrink down, submitting yourself before the solar ruler. You let out small shrills of whimpering as the princess gets closer. You have no idea why but without even thinking you raise up a tentacle and hold it up before her, you turn your gaze away.

“You are submitting to me? Why? You have done nothing wrong.”

You slowly look back to Celestia. The princess was smiling down at you but you still didn't move. The princess giggles at you and looks back over her shoulder.

“I think you would do better my sister, he seems to be afraid of me.”

Your gaze snaps to the door in the wall as another voice from your past graces your ears.

“You are an imposing figure sister, besides it has been centuries since I have seen him.” Princess Luna says, walking through the door and standing before you. “Hello my friend, it has been awhile.” Luna smiles and you break under it.

You start to cry, your pathetic whimpering echoes in the small room and Luna walks forward to touch the still held aloft tentacle. You feel her hoof slide along your tentacles scales and your body relaxes.

“It's ok.” Luna coos, “There's nothing to be scared about.” Luna grins at you. “I know what would cheer you up, would you like to talk again?”

Celestia steps forward. “Sister? He can talk?”

Luna nods. “Yes, he wasn't always like this. His vocal cords are still intact but they have altered to produce the shrills and growls he uses. I however found a spell to temporarily turn the growls and shrills into equestrian, but it doesn't last long.”

You look at Luna and move the tentacle to stroke her cheek.

“I will take that as a yes.” Luna giggles.

Luna's horn glows and lowers to your body as her horn touches your body you feel the tingling feeling of magic. Luna raises her head back up and smiles.

“Say something.”

You look to Celestia and then back to Luna. “Can...Understand?”

Celestia's eyes widen. “Luna that is incredible, I can understand him.”

“Can...understand...You...Too.” You state. “How...Friend?”

“If you mean the pony you brought to the hospital, she is fine. She suffered some broken bones but nothing the doctors couldn't fix.” Luna replies. “She has expressed the need to see you, and judging by what she and her friends told us, you are more than just friends...Qun.”

“Rose...Explain?” You ask.

“Yes, she did.” Celestia says.

You slither away and stop in the corner of the room. “I...leave...you...angry...not...bother...again.”

“What makes you think we are angry?” Celestia asks, her face turning confused. “The fact that some of our little ponies have found a special somecreature to love...Or is that the problem?”

“I...Not...Pony...Thought...You...Mad.” You say.

The princesses both laugh. “Qun, we have Griffons and Minotaurs marrying and loving our ponies, why would you be any different? Not all ponies are creature phobic you know.”

You turn back to the princesses and show both are trying not to laugh at your predicament.

“I...see...Rose...now.” You say.

Celestia smiles. “I would be honoured to escort you to her room, I have heard much about you. Your exploits protecting Ponyville and a recent letter from Princess Sparkle has confirmed most of the rumours.”

“How...know...about...protecting?” You ask as the princesses gesture to the open doorway and you slither to it. “It...secret.”

Luna looks a little sheepish. “I may have had a part in that, Celestia found out about my play times with you and I kind of got pressured into telling her.” Luna gives you a smile as her cheeks turn a slight tinge of pink.

You look to Luna then Celestia before mentally shrugging. “It...no...problem.” You slither out the door only to appear in the hospital again, you turn back to see the grey room turn back into brightly lit hospital room. “What?”

“An illusion my old friend.” Luna answers coming out with her horn glowing.

You let out a surprise shrill but then realise that Luna has changed a lot since you played as young beings. “Impressive.” You say as something bumps into you. “What...that?” You turn to the impact and spot a young filly rubbing her head. You really can't believe that ponies keep bumping into you, considering your a large tentacle creature and therefore not very small. “You...ok?” You ask the small filly.

“Yeah, I think....” The filly looks up at you. “...so...” You watch as the fillies ears flatten back and her eyes start to water. “P-Please don't eat me!” The filly says, finally bawling her eyes out.

You did something at that moment that cause the eyes of both princesses to widen in shock. You reach down and lift the filly up cradling her in a tentacle like a mother would in her arms. You swing the filly back and forth as you make soft cooing sounds.

“I...not...hurt...filly....too....precious.” You say. “Too...cute!” You bop the filly on the nose with a smaller tendril and the filly stops crying as she tries not to giggle.

“That tickles!” The filly says, so you bop her nose again. “Stop, I'm going to sneeze!” You bop her again and the filly lets out a small squeak as she sneezes. “Told you!” The filly wipes her nose and looks up at you. “You're not scary.”

“Never.” You reply, scratching the fillies ear with a tendril. You let the filly go and she runs off waving back.

“That was...unexpected.” Celestia says, coming up beside you.

“Why?” You ask as you and the princesses with a now armoured escort continue down the hospital hall.

“I just never thought you to be experienced with foals.”

“You...can...thank...Luna...for...that.” You state.

You watch as Celestia turns to Luna and Luna blushes again.

“What exactly do you mean by that?” Celestia asks.

“Luna...helped...me...learn...skills...in...areas...I...didn't...know.”

“Such as?”

“Foal...holding....etiquette...towards...royals...and...how...to...scare...royal...guards.” You let out a small shrill of laughter, “that...day...you...found...your...bed...covered...in...green...slime...was...me.”

Celestia stamps a hoof. “Do you have any idea how long it took the castle maids to clean that up and to make an excuse as to why it was there!”

“Just be pleased sister you didn't learn what the slime was.” Luna says, seconds later holding a hoof to her mouth. “Oops, I shouldn't have said that.”

“Qun? Luna? What are you not telling me?”

You let out a sigh that sounded like a quiet growl. “Slime...was...personal...fluid.”

“Come again?” Celestia says, looking more confused.

“Slime...was...impregnation...fluid.”

“I still don't understand.”

“It was his sperm sister! Did he have to spell it.”

You then realise everything nearby just when extremely quiet. You look around and notice the guards failing to contain their amusement, you also notice Celestia was sporting a now red coat instead of the white one she should have.

“You mean Qun, you...in my bed?” Celestia looks to you.

“I...was...excited...by...you...back...then.” You carry on slithering forward to avoid any embarrassment. “You...had...nice...plot.”

“You...liked my plot?” Celestia asks, shaking off her state of shock.

“It...was...toned...and...perfectly...round.”

Celestia stops walking again and points a hoof to you. “Wait! You were the one spying on me when I reached adolescence weren't you!”

“Um? What do you mean sister?” Luna asks, now curious.

“When I reached old enough to have my first heat, I noticed that I was being followed by somepony or in this case somecreature. Every where I went I would have this feeling of being followed, yet everytime I turned or looked nothing was there. It was haunting!”

Your slithering comes to a halt as you realise that for the first time you basically went pedo on the princess when she was barely in age. You make the gesture to turn your body so the princess would know you have turned around.

“I'm...sorry...shouldn't...have...scared...you.” You state.

Celestia continues to stare at you before she finally smiles. “I take no offence, it's warming to me that someone took an interest in my plot. No other stallion did.” Celestia raises her head high and continues down the corridor. The princess passes you but not before giving you a slight bump with her hips.

You sit there slack jawed with Luna mimicking your expression, you turn your body around to watch Celestia walking away humming loudly.

“Did she just...?” Luna says, walking up to stand beside you.

“She...still...got...it” You exclaim before slithering on.

“Wait! What do you mean by that? Qun? Qun~?” Luna shouts after you. “Fine! But I will find out what you mean!” Luna adds trotting to catch up with you.


Celestia and Luna come to a stop in front of a door marked room twenty seven. You stop by the door and the princesses both give you smiles.

“This is the room of your 'friend'.” Celestia says. “You might find the other two ponies are in there with her.” Celestia knocks on the door, seconds later the door opens and Lily pops her head out.

“Oh princess! How are you...?” Lily's question trails off as she spots you wriggling nearby. “Qun!? Your ok!?” Lily shouts, flinging the door open and grabbing one of your tentacles. “We thought we would never see you again!”

You place another tentacle on Lily's back and give her a quick squeeze. “I'm...fine.” You feel Lily stiffen in your grip as she reels back.

“Y-you can talk?”

“Only for a short while, the spell should wear out in a few hours.” Luna states. “But for now yes he can talk but it's not perfect.”

“Is this what you really sound like or..?” Lily asks.

“No...just...sound...conversion.”

“Huh?” Lily started to look confused.

“It means his shrilling and growling is being translated into Equestrian.” Celestia states.

“Ah, now that makes sense.” Lily replies. “Do you want to see Rose?”

“Yes.” You answer.

“We will take our leave Qun, we have made the ponies aware of your existence and of the work you have done to protect them all these centuries. You shouldn't have problems with anypony but I have sent some pegasis guards to watch over Ponyville, just encase.” Celestia says with a smile. “I bid you farewell Miss Lily, do take good care of him now won't you?”

“We all will take good care of him princess, you can count on that.” You didn't like the way Lily grinned on the last part.
