Author's Note

Yes, I know I'm releasing this a day early. But this is only the build up, that way, all I have to worry about in the next chapter, is the action.

Nightmare Night

"Okay Barb, just hang up the rubber bat over there and we'll be all set." Twilight said, directing her surrogate sister to hang up the last Nightmare Night decoration. Long stretches of fake cobwebs and spiders adorned the walls and parts of the ceiling.

"I'm amazed you agreed to have the Nightmare Night party at the library this year." Barb said. Usually Barb would dress in some dragon-like costume, but this year, she decided to wear something Elusive suggested; a frilly Gothic loli dress. "We normally do it at Bubble's house. Oh! You think Elusive will notice my costume?"

"Well it is cute." Twilight smiled, as she rant he smooth fabric through her fingers. "But isn't it a little inviting?"

"Twilight, Twilight, Twilight." Barb said with a small giggle. "That's the point. I've decided to take Horizon's advice in trying to capture Elusive's attention. Last year he saw me as a little dragon girl. But this year-" Her tail flicked up, lifting the back parts of the skirt, revealing her black lace panties. "This year, he'll see me as a dragon woman."

"I really doubt Horizon is the best to give relationship advice." Twilight shook her head a little.

"But she's been with Zicoro for almost two years now." Barb said. "I'm sure whatever they do works out."

"Yeah, but what they do is not something I think you should try to emulate." Twilight said, then a small realization hit her. "Speaking of, have you heard from Horizon recently?"

"No, I think it's been like nearly three weeks." Barb noticed. "I assumed she was just with Zicoro or one of the guys."

"No, if she was doing anything with the guys, I'm certain somepony would tell me." Twilight said, putting up the last decoration. "I'm certain where ever Horizon is, she knows the party should be here this year."

In the the last three weeks, Zicoro's hut has underwent some changes. The cracks and crevices of the exterior of the hut was oozing some honey-like substance. While the inside was filled with massive honeycombs. In the center of the room, Zicoro was hard at work, trying to find a cure for what Horizon did to herself. His nose was plugged with a cloth pin to keep out the sweet smell Horizon had filled the hut with. Horizon was busy as well, trying desperately to break free from the small prison that was the bedroom. Having to act fast, Zicoro was only able to restrain Horizon in their bed room with thick wooden bars.

"buzz Zicoro buzz." Horizon buzzed and moaned, rubbing herself against the bar. "buzz Come back to bed buzz. I want you to taste my sweet honey pot buzz."

"You know I can not yet set you free." Zicoro said, not even turning from his work. "If free, your scent would make a slave of me."

"buzz But you enjoyed it on the first night buzz." Horizon continued to grind her wet and sticky body against her cell door. "buzz You filled me for hours buzz."

"But now I see what the potion has done." Zicoro replied. "I must make sure this work is undone."

Horizon didn't respond with words, she only continued to buzz and moan in a sultry manner against the bars, making them wet and sticky against her constantly roused body. Zicoro was fortunate to notice that there was something wrong with Horizon as soon as he did. By blocking his nose, he was immune to Horizon's pheromone spell, and due to her constant arousal, Horizon couldn't focus her horn for spell. Her only thoughts were to breed and mate. So for the past three weeks, Zicoro has been hard at work, trying to reverse what Horizon did. After countless failed attempts, Zicoro was feeling confident about this one.

"Hopefully this should be it." Zicoro said, holding up the small vial of steaming blue liquid. "Horizon, it is almost done, this will make you nice and fit."

Moving close to Horizon, the horny bee-mare pushed harder against the bar, eager to claim her mate. Quickly grabbing at her mouth, Zicoro was able to force Horizon to drink the potential cure. Reeling back, Horizon started flailing about and coughing about. Zicoro watched coldly, but he knew Horizon would have to suffer a little in order to be cured. When after a few more minutes of flailing, Horizon finally settled down; her body lay still on the floor.

"Horizon, are you feeling alright?" Zicoro asked, opening the cage door, rushing to Horizon. "Are we now past this bligh-"

In a sudden motion, Horizon's tail flicked at Zicoro's nose slip off, the sudden smell of pheromones struck him like a hammer. IT was a sickly sweet, it went from his nose to his brain in less than a fraction of a second. His cock became instantly erect and twitched precum, while his body became limp and dropped to the ground. Panting heavily as he looked at his mare lover get to her hooves. Turning towards him, Horizon's body was not cured; if anything, she was more aroused and tense than before. Deciding to finally get her prize from Zicoro, Horizon pounces on her zebra lover, knocking his back hard to the ground. Spreading Zicoro’s legs, making room for his cock, Zicoro could only make an aroused pant and whimper as Horizon licked her lips in eager anticipation and gluttonous lust.

Zicoro couldn’t stop Horizon’s actions. The pheromones cut off all sense of reason, only the act of mating ran through him. His body flinched and shivered in bliss as Horizon started to lick and caress his sheath and balls, urging Zicoro to a full erection. She takes the tip of Zicoro’s member into her mouth; suckling at it as her tongue curls at the crown and teases at the slit at the tip. Horizon would rather gulp the entire thing down and keep sucking, but instead chose to take her time with him, letting her hooves rub up and down his length, masturbating Zicoro slowly and giving his needy balls the occasional caress. Horizon works at Zicoro’s cock until his orgasm explodes through him; and then, keeping all his seed in her mouth, savoring the sweet nectar taste of Zicoro’s spunk.

"Sooo good!" Horizon moaned, taking another gulp."You can go again right Zicoro?" Horizon set herself up, lining up her wet and dripping pussy to Zicoro's limp dick. "Oh come on Zicoro! You still have to have some loads left in you?!" Instinctively raising her tail, underneath all the soft and sticky hair was a short, black stinger. "I said, give it to me!" Horizon stung Zicoro in the side and the venom took immediate effect. His cock became instantly hard, and due to how close Horizon was, it rammed straight in her hungry pussy. Horizon tilted her head back in a moan and scream. "Now that's more like it! Keep going! Harder! Deeper! More! More! MORE!!!" Zicoro had no will to resist; with the pheromones and aphrodisiac venom in his body, he was just a mindless sex drone for the queen that was Horizon.

After nearly four hours of hardcore, sticky, and sloppy sex, Horizon's pussy finally releases its prey. Zicoro was near motionless, his body now encases in honey and nectar. Horizon leaned in and gave her lover one more wet and open kiss; their tongues pressing against each other. "You did good Zicoro." Horizon moaned, then her antennae flicked about in excitement. "But I smell something tasty in the distance." Buzzing her wings into action, Horizon hovered off the ground and buzzed straight out of the open window.

It was now night, the air was cool and clear of all clouds, with a big, beautiful full moon out. The children and even some adults and teens were already making their rounds for candy, but at Twilight's house, it was a little different. The decorations were fully up and the guests were to arrive soon.

"They should be here any minute." Bar said pacing back and forth, waiting for Twilight to finish getting into her costume. "Come on Twilight it shouldn't take this long."

"I'm almost done, hold your scales Barb." Twilight called back from her room. Emerging from her room, Twilight's outfit was a long lab coat, thick rubber gloves, a medical mask and scientist goggles.

"Going for the made scientist look?" Barb asked.

"Well yeah." Twilight smiled, looking herself over in the mirror. "I can't dress up as Starstream the Sorceress every year."

"Have been for the past five." Barb mumbled a bit. "Anyway, they should arrive soon." There was a sudden knock on the door. "Oh, there's one now."

Opening the door, Applejack, Elusive, Macarena, and the Cutie Mark Chevaliers. Applejack normally chose farm related costumes, but this year, and at Horizon's suggestion, he was wearing a type of fake wooden material over his arms, and the same material for his pants, with a Timberwolf mask and tail. But his faint orange chest was fully exposed. To the joy of many a mare in the town. Elusive, reluctantly taking Horizon's advice on a costume, was wearing a simple suit and tie. But the material was smoother than silk and the way the purple undershirt matched the faded white jacket and pants, Elusive almost could be confused as a male escort. Macarena didn't get Horizon's costume advice, mostly as she never needed it; her costume was more like that one female horror show host; Marevira.

The Chevaliers were all dressed up like characters from those role playing games that Charm's marefriend Joystick loved playing. Applebuck was a barbarian, covered in fake furs and metals, wielding a fake axe. His chest was exposed a bit, but due to his help on the farm, he developed some well toned abdominal muscles. Charm was a mage of some kind, wearing a long hooded robe, and wielding a elongated "magic staff". Scooterloo was an easy one to spot, he was a rouge, wearing fake leather armor, and having twin dagger at his sides.

"Hello Barbra." Elusive smiled. "Happy Nightmare Night."

"H-hey Elusive!" Barb responded off guard, she was hoping Elusive would have come alone, but the night was still young.

"Sorry we're late." Applejack smiled in an apology. "The boys were finishing up their costumes and they wanted to swing by here before going out for candy.

"Yeah, probably to see what Horizon was wearing." Scooterloo teased at Applebuck.

"Scoots!!" Applebuck turned back at his friend. "But is Horizon here?"

"No, we haven't seen her in a few weeks now." Barb replied. "We asked Zicoro a couple days ago and he said she was not feeling well."

"Oh." Applebuck's ears flopped down a bit. "Well come on Chevaliers, CANDY AWAITS!"

The Chevaliers ran off towards the town with a calm and smiling Macarena behind them. After Applejack and Elusive entered the library/house, and all eyes were away from the tops of the tree, a hidden figure looked down at the leaving group. Her antenna flicked in the night air, taking in the scents of the night. Her eyes fixed on her new prey, lips licked in anticipation. Spreading her insect wings, Horizon took the the sky, buzzing after Macarena and the Chevaliers. When she finally reached the small group, last thing they saw was Horizon's face, followed by some horny buzzes.

It was roughly another ten or so minutes before the next guests arrive, Rainbow Blitz and Butterscotch. After recently discovering, thanks to Twilight, that Rainbow's may be a direct descendant of Commander Hurricane, he decided to try and dress the part. Wearing light, yet sturdy armor, that complemented his face and wings. Butterscotch on the other hand was always at home during Nightmare Night, reading stories to his animals. This year, however, Horizon was able to convince the shy stallion to give it a chance; his costume was something Horizon sort of forced on him. A full bodied bear costume, but the head, which was a little scary, now was some cute looking bear faced hoodie.

"Hey Rainbow, Butterscotch!" Barb greeted.

"Hey Barb." Rainbow smirked, checking Barb's near revealing outfit out. The way he looked at her, it was like a stallion looking at an appitizer before a meal.

"Hello Barb." Butterscotch smiled.

"Oh Butterscotch, that outfit is so cute!" Barb said all red faced and sparkling eyes.

"Y-you think so?" Butterscotch said shyly.

"Absolutely, come on in." Barb gestured her fiends inside. "All we;'re waiting for is Bubble Berry."

"AND I AM HERE!" Bubble shouted from one of the ceiling rafters. His costume was that of his usual chicken costume, but with a small change. He had a more red mohawk added the head.

"When did you get here?!" Twilight asked in shock.

"It's Bubble, so it's best not to ask." Barb chuckled. "Why are you in the same chicken costume as last time?"

"Chicken? Oh no no no." Bubble waved his finger back and forth. "This is a Roaster costume. Cock-a-doodle-do!" The room shared a small, collected laugh at Bubble's humorous display. "Anyway, I heard that Horizon wasn't feeling to well." He raised a plastic cup full of punch. "So I believe I speak for all of us, when I say, let's party harder for her!"

The group grabbed their cups of punch and shared a drink. While Twilight and the guys were getting their party underway, Horizon was busy deep in a cave within the Everfree, with her own lust driven plans. And she has already claimed her next victims.
