The adventures of Sally Forth

The doors to the changing room swung open as Sally and company made their way in after a tiring night shift. “Jeez, why did all the criminals decide to come out tonight?” Iron asked, her head hanging from dreariness. “Six in one night? That's more than we've bagged all week.”

“Well, at least that's the last night of night shift for us.” Silver responded, practically ripping off his armor and tossing it in his locker.

Sally nodded as she rounded the corner to her own locker, starting to strip. “Yeah, at ease soldiers. Two days off, a training day, then we get our next assignment, so enjoy your beds while you can.”

There was an echoing cheer from the group as they thought forward to their coming days off, relaxation after a straight week of work, it sounded great. Sally shut her locker, ready to make her way off to the Colonel's office, but stopped as she felt a hoof tap on her shoulder. Turning, she saw Iron Sights standing there with a nervous blush. “Hey, with you recovering and the busy night, we haven't had a chance to talk about what I heard. I already told Athens and Silver I wouldn't tell anyone. Your secret is safe with me.”

Sally looked up at her, Her eyes showed honesty behind all that nervousness. She nodded to the nervous mare with a smile. “Thank you, I'm glad I can count on you.”

The private nodded with a smile, rubbing the back of her head. “I gotta say, I was pretty shocked and curious when I heard the lieutenants talking, I've never met a polyamorous group before.”

“Well, Why don't you stop by at the Golden Orchard tonight and join us on our date.” Sally replied.

“P-pardon?”

“Not like that,” Sally said, giggling at the blushing mare, “So you can ask some questions, you said you were curious.”

“Oh, of course.” Iron smiled, clearing the blush from her cheeks. “Alright, I'll meet up with you guys later.”

Iron waved as she stepped away from her commanding officer, Sally once again splitting off to report the nights events.

Sally made her way down the street toward downtown. Stopping as she approached her destination, she looked up at the sign. Her sister's bar, The Golden Orchard, practically the only bar not frequented by military personnel. It was always a relief to stop by and relax when she could. Walking inside, her gaze turned immediately to her usual table, where her two favorite guys in the world were sitting close, holding hooves as they talked. Sally approached with a smile on her face, though the back of her head reminded her that there was someone missing from that table. Once she was nearby, the two caught sight of her and smiled, getting up out of the booth to greet her. “Sally, I'm so glad you could make it.” Silver said, pressing his lips to hers.

“Yeah, well, I was starting to feel left out, you boys and your movie nights and whatnot.” she said as the kiss broke, turning to Athens to kiss him next before sitting down. “It's nice, the three of us together again on a date. I'm already enjoying myself.”

“Yeah, we've missed you a lot, it's way more boring when it's just the two of us.” Silver agreed, leaning back in the booth.

“And Silver was getting tired of playing the bottom” Athens added with a chuckle.

The three laughed and caught up with each other, sharing stories and discussing work as they burned away the evening. For the first time in more than a week, it seemed like the trio were completely happy, without a care in the world. The drinks came and the words flew, laughter erupted as Athens dropped the punch line to a joke. “Hey guys, what's so funny?” came a familiar voice.

The laughing stopped, The boys' hearts each skipped a beat as the three turned and saw Iron Sights standing there, a smile on her face “Come on, let me in on the joke.”

“Iron Sights? What are you doing here?” Silver asked, a bit shocked by her sudden appearance.

“Sally told me to come here.”

And, suddenly, all eyes turned to Sally, who had a wide grin on her face. “Well, she was curious about us. And, like a good Captain, I always do damage control for those under my command.” Her eyes were directly on Silver as she finished speaking. “Have a seat, Iron. Ask away.”

Iron slid into the booth next to a blushing Silver, who stared down into his drink. “Well, I guess my first question would by why you guys are keeping it a secret? Equestria is a free love country.”

“They won't mind that we're in a relationship,” Athens explained, “But the official standing of the military is that soldiers must be unbiased toward those under their command. If anyone in the military base found out, and it leaked to our commanding officer, Sally would be reassigned to another squad, she may even be relocated to a different base.”

“So, I'll remind you,” Sally added, “You cannot tell anyone that we're dating. Understood, private?”

Iron nodded, blushing a bit as she thought about the consequences. “I understand, I'll keep your secret for you guys. How does it work, anyway? Like, how do you guys make decisions and decide who gets the join you guys?”

“Well it was easy for us at first,” Silver explained, “Initially, it was the four of us on the squad, so it wasn't that difficult for us to get along. When it comes to decisions about us as a whole, we vote on it and discuss it together, all of us. We've never really had to decide on adding someone to the group before, but we agreed that we'd all have to approve of them first.”

“I see. And how does, um, intimacy work?”

“There'll be times when we go out together, like tonight.” Athens spoke up. “Otherwise, we'll go on dates in pairs or who ever's available. As for bedroom antics, that's a bit too personal to go into with you, private.”

They continued on in fashion for a while, Iron asking and the group answering, getting more and more interested as the time went by. “Wow, you guys have a lot of this figured out.” Iron said, mind racing with curiosity. “Alright, one last question. How did you all start? How did you decide to date each other?”

There was a pause again, the three looking around at each other, debating whether or not to reveal the story. Sally nodded slowly, smiling softly as she thought back to it. “It was a while back.” She explained. “We were still a fairly new squad, only about six months together at the time, on a reconnaissance mission to gather some intel on possible smugglers.”

Sally wiped a bead of sweat from her brow as she stared down the binoculars, watching closely the building hidden below the thicket of trees. Athens and Silver stood guard in the trees while Spring Showers was busy at work on some lunch, humming the same tune as usual, a lullaby from her childhood. “movement.” Sally finally said, and the three turned and looked at her. “It looks like they're emptying the store room, but why? They aren't supposed to deliver the goods until tomorrow.”

Silver glided down from the tree and took a look for himself through the binoculars, scanning the scene below. It was true, it looked like everything they had stored was being emptied into a pair of carts. The group remained in position as they watched the carts gallop away. “That doesn't make any sense though, what are they doing?” Silver asked.

“Let's go find out.” Sally replied, packing up the binoculars. “group up team, we're moving in to investigate. No telling how long they'll be gone for, so don't waste any time.”

The group left the camp unpacked save for a small survival pack each. Carrying their supplies down into the thicket, they wandered into the now abandoned factory. As they suspected, it was empty, save for some tables and chairs left over. As the group looked around, they tried to figure out what caused them to flee. “Bomb!” Athens yelled, spotting a small explosive in the corner of the building.

“Under the tables!” Sally said through gritted teeth, making a dive. They had been discovered, it was a trap.

Everyone made it under the tables just in time for the fireworks to fly. The rocks crumbled and fell, thankfully missing the soldiers under the tables. As the explosions subsided, the group climbed out from under the tables, looking around with a bit of shock. The entire building had collapsed into a dome, they were trapped. At the top, a single ray of sunlight shot through a hole in the ceiling. Silver Lining flew up to investigate, shaking his head. “No good, too small for a pony to fit through. Making it bigger will probably collapse the dome. But at least we won't suffocate.”

“So we're trapped?” Spring asked, looking concerned.

“We'll be fine Spring.” Sally reassured her, pulling a beacon from her pack and activating it, producing a continuous beep every three seconds. “They'll get a fix on our location and come rescue us. Could take a little bit of time. Silver, it's not big enough to fly, but see if you can fit your hoof through and toss this out. It won't broadcast well through these rocks.”

Silver was quick to obey the order, his hoof barely fit through the hole as he tossed out the beacon. “Alright, it'll be nightfall soon, and the temperature is going to drop. Athens, help me get started on a fire. Spring and Silver, gather up the survival packs and do a ration count.”

The group worked like a well oiled machine, both pairs working hard on their job. By nightfall, everything was prepared. Spirits were still low, however, as the wood proved difficult to burn, only a small fire was produced. The food situation wasn't much better, even rationed properly they would only have enough for one more day. The four sat in silence around the fire, until Spring finally spoke up. “Permission to speak captain.”

Sally looked up at her, as concerned eyes looked back. “Granted.”

“I just wanted to say, I....I love all three of you.” she began. “If we don't make it out of this situation, I just wanted you all to know.”

“Yeah, we love you too Spring.” Silver said.

“I mean it, in the most intimate way.” Spring continued. “I love all of you, I'm attracted to all of you. I'm sorry, if it seems dramatic, but....I really wanted it to be said, just in case.”

The three looked between each other, shocked. Equestria was, of course, a free love empire, there were no rules to love. Even so, the group had hardly seen anyone come out to three people at once. Everyone sat in silence for a while, until Silver spoke up. “You know, I kind of like you guys too. Like, beyond friends, every one of you.”

“I'm not gonna lie, I've definitely thought about all of you before.” Athens said with a smile. “Though, never at the same time.”

All eyes turned to Sally as she looked around at the group, the room silent save for the crackling of the fire. She thought for a long time, eyes darting between her team mates a dozen times. “I don't really have a lot of good experience with love.” she started. “My relationships tend to crash and burn often. But, I'd be happy to share a bed with just one of you, let alone all of you.”

It was silent again, the group sat and thought about what had just been said, what it meant. They were silent for a good hour, nothing but the sound of a crackling fire. Finally, Spring stood up. She walked around the fire to Sally, who stood to meet her. The two stared at each other for a time before Spring spoke up. “Captain, average rescue time for a pinned unit in these deep, forested conditions is four days.” she started. “We haven't eaten since breakfast, and the rations will only last us another day. Before we're exhausted, before we don't have the energy....in case this is our last conversation, I just wanted to do this.”

Without a moment's pause, Spring leaned her head in to Sally's, pressing her lips against the captain's. The two men stared at the pair for a moment, blushing. After the initial shock, Sally returned the kiss, shutting her eyes. The two broke the kiss with a deep blush on each of their cheeks, a small strand of saliva breaking between them.

Breaking eye contact, Spring moved on to Athens, she looked up at him as he stood tall, his head looming above hers. With a smile, he lowered his beak, and the two shared their own kiss. Silver was once again staring when he felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning his head, his lips were suddenly assaulted by those of his commanding officer, shutting his eyes and sharing the kiss.

Spring and Sally caught each others eyes as they were kissing with the boys, and exchanged a wordless agreement. Guiding the two boys by their lips, they guided their lips together, pulling away and tricking the boys into a kiss. The watched with a smile as the two opened their eyes and made eye contact with a deep blush. They must have decided they liked it, because they both shut their eyes again.

Their kiss was interrupted as Silver gasped and jumped away from the griffin. He looked down, thinking he had felt something. Spring was there, her head leaning down, formerly between his legs, a blush between her cheeks as she raised her head up. “I-I'm sorry, was that too far?” she asked.

Silver looked down under him to his flared member, hanging erect. He paused for a moment, smiling as he continued to blush. “N-no, not at all” he told her, lifting a foreleg with a smile.

Spring smiled, trotting over to him and hanging her head under his belly, licking slowly across his stallionhood. Biting his lip, he leaned himself back and fell onto his back, giving her full access to his underbelly and his erection. Spring continued her delicate work, covering him in a coat of saliva. Sally and Athens stood, watching the pair before turning to each other, a deep blush covering Sally's face. “D-did you want-” she stuttered out.

“Please, allow me” He replied with a bow, leaning his head behind her and between her legs, his thin griffin tongue tender licking the captain's damp folds. Sally moaned gently, tensing her back at the initial lick before calming down. Lowering her head to the ground, she lifted her tail out of the way and raised her flanks.

Moans echoed around the dome, Spring had moved on from her delicate licking to sucking, her head bobbing up and down, her mane bouncing as she sucked Silver's arousal. Sally was across the room with her back hooves spread, Athens was hard at work on her entrance, his sharp beak carefully teasing her love button, causing her to cry out in ecstasy.

Feeling his shaft throb in her throat, Spring slipped slowly off his cock, letting every inch of Silver's hot flesh feel her lips against it as she released him from her maw. Licking her lips, the taste of pre surrounded her tongue. Looking up and panting, Silver watched as Sally walked away, approaching the other two soldiers. Climbing back onto his hooves, he had a feeling he knew where this was going.

Sally's hooves were shaking with pleasure as her griffin comrade continued his work on her nethers. Her moans were interrupted by the tongue suddenly invading her mouth. Snapping her eyes open, she saw Spring Showers, head down and presenting much like her. She broke the kiss with a smile “hey there, having fun?” Spring asked with a smile.

Sally nodded with a smile, and the two stared into each others eyes. Their gaze was broken a moment later as Spring shut her eyes and gasped. Above her, Silver had taken her invitation, his hooves on her flanks as his shaft found it's way into her waiting entrance. Sally stared at her comrade with a deep blush on her face, watching her eyes roll back as Silver found his rhythm. Leaning in, she caught the mare's moans with a deep kiss.

She felt the passion of the kiss as the mares explored each others mouths. Sally was so focused in on the kiss, she hadn't realized the absence of griffin tongue between her back legs. She was quickly made aware of that fact as she felt Athens' pointed prick penetrating her. Her body tensed up, feeling every inch of his griffin erection.

The four stuck in their position, the two mares kissing deeply as their male comrades caught their rhythm, pounding into them with vigor. Silver's paces increased as his stallionhood throbbed deeply in Spring's marehood, her folds were lubricated, she had already cum twice from the intense pounding. With the last of his wits Silver pulled out from her entrance, moaning as he shot his load onto the ground between the mare's legs.

Athens wasn't far behind, his body tensing as he felt himself grow close. Sally moaned and grinded her hips beneath him as he thrusted, her tongue hanging out as she felt the full length of his dick deep inside her damp entrance. As he approached climax, his thrusts became more erratic, until finally he released, his full load of griffin cum painting the inner walls of his commanding officer. As he pulled away, Sally's weakened hooves finally gave up on her, and she collapsed on the ground, aroused and sensitive.

She panted, catching her breath as she stared up at the ceiling of the dome, the other three soldiers standing amongst her. With a smile, spring drew close, laying down and cuddling up to Sally. Silver and Athens followed, and the four held each other close, cuddling and spooning each other until they passed out and slept.

Colonel Semper Fi looked down at his tracker, wiping some sweat from his brow. Humid days, freezing nights, he hated the dense jungles of Equestria. The beeping continued, the beacon had been detected two days before, but no radio contact was getting through. A squad of seven unicorns followed behind the Colonel, until they came across their destination. In a grove amongst the thicket, they saw the large, rocky dome. The rescue team was quick to get into position, half of the group minding to the structure's integrity, making sure the dome didn't collapse in on itself. The other half were beginning to dig with their magic, creating an exit to the prison. As the rocks rolled back and light filled the room, the rescue team was met with the sight of four soldiers, huddled together under their armor, laying close to preserve their body heat.

As the light cascaded over them, the team turned their attention to the source, seeing their rescuers. The four stood up weakly, happy to see the unicorns as they guided them out, giving them food, water, and blankets. Following a brief medical examination, checking for injuries and making sure their vital signs were stable, they began their trek back to the main military encampment. As they walked, the four exchanged blushing glances with each other.

“For a while after that we pretty much went about our business,” Silver added, “We went on missions like we normally would, and tried to ignore the aching question in everyone's mind. A couple weeks later we did finally sit down and talk about it.”

“We first acknowledged that the events of those days were escalated by our fear that we were going to die, but we also acknowledged we had feelings for each other, and we began dating in secret.” Athens continued. “We eventually worked our way back around to a physical relationship, but we didn't want the military to separate us. So, out of a desire to be close to each other, we kept our relationship under wraps.”

“That day was a year and a half ago, and we've become so very close since then.” Sally said, looking straight at Iron Sights. “We're a family. We're there when it's easy or when it's hard, and we give each other the support we need.”

The table was silent for a few moments, Iron Sights sat in awe at the story she had just heard. “Wow, you guys I promise your secret is safe with me, I swear I won't out you. That was an amazing, romantic story.”

The three smiled, it was a relief to see the mare smiling, to know that someone outside themselves understood their situation so well. “thank you, Iron sights.” Sally said with a smile.

Iron nodded, turning her head to the clock on the wall. “Well, I'd better get going, sorry for commandeering your date. See you all at work.”

With a wave, Iron left, and the three watched her as she trotted off. After a moment, Sally stood up as well, and the other two climbed out of the booth along with her. “We should get going, too.” Sally said, taking Athens' talon with a smile. “Come on, let's go to your place.”

“I'll meet you guys outside, it's my turn to pay the tab.” Silver told them.

“Oh, you aren't invited Silver.” Sally told him, putting on a parental tone. “I think you need some time to work on your inside voice.”

Sally stuck her tongue out playfully at the bat colt as she and Athens left the bar, leaving a shocked Silver to stand there and watch. With a sigh, he put some bits on the table and walked home.
