A Wonderful Picnic

Prelude

Since her reformation, Starlight Glimmer had become friends with Twilight and her friends but she had developed a special bond with one that she had not the others, and surprisingly it is the one who exposed her in "Our Town" that she had grown so close to, Fluttershy. Almost immediately once they began to spend more time together, something special began to develop between them and soon they realized it was love, true love. It had become the type of love that caused them to become inseparable for the most part. Now Starlight has decided the time has come to cement her relationship with Fluttershy, to hopefully forge a bond that will be eternal.

It was another beautiful morning in Ponyville as the sun woke Starlight up. She quickly got out of bed and readied herself for the day ahead. She was particularly happy because her marefriend had invited her to a picnic. She had special plans for this picnic though, she was ready to move things to the next level. She had decided that the time to propose to her marefriend had come.

She skipped down the stairs into the dining hall in Twilight's castle with a huge smile on her face. Twilight saw this and asked, "Good morning Starlight, what is up with the smile?"

Starlight asked in return, "Do you promise not to tell anypony?"

Twilight replied, "Of course."

Starlight said, "Well Fluttershy has invited me to a picnic today and I plan on making it special." She pulled out a gold necklace with a diamond ring on it. She continued, "I'm going to ask Fluttershy to marry me today!"

Twilight gasped, "This soon? You two have only been dating for three months."

Starlight replied, "Yes. I know it may seem soon but when we spend time together I can just feel the love from her. Our energies seem to merge into one and I know she truly loves me and I truly love her."

Twilight sighed, "I know. You spend more time daydreaming about her than you do focusing on your friendship studies." Twilight became more serious and continued, "Starlight, you aren't going to get mad and revert to your old self if she says no are you? You won't hold anything against her if she says no, will you?"

Starlight replied, "Of course not. I'll be sad but I'll accept the fact that she thought I was trying to rush things."

Twilight smiled, "Good. Let's eat some breakfast and tell you what, why don't you take the morning off. I know that is the time you two usually have your picnics."

Starlight hugged her and replied, "Thank you Twilight! You're too good to me."

Twilight said, "Well I want you to be happy and if spending time with Fluttershy makes you happy, then I want you to do it."

While they were eating their breakfast Fluttershy was readying herself for the picnic. While she was happy, she was also nervous as she wanted to make herself extra beautiful for her. She decided she would ask her animals, "What should I do to make myself extra beautiful for Starlight?"

Angel opened the door and began pointing towards the garden. Fluttershy followed him and noticed he was pointing towards some daisies and then her mane. Fluttershy asked, "You think wearing daisies in my mane will make me extra beautiful."

Angel began squeaking and nodding his head in approval. Fluttershy continued, "Alright Angel bunny, if you think that is good, I'll do it."

Fluttershy proceeded to put three daisies in her mane up by her ear before she grabbed some cucumber sandwiches and headed out. While she was excited for her picnic with Starlight like she has been for months, something in the back of her mind kept telling her that something special was going to happen that day, despite having this feeling, she tried to not act overly excited.

A couple hours after eating her breakfast, Starlight put some cider in her saddlebags and headed towards the park. Her and Fluttershy had agreed that she would bring the cider while Fluttershy would supply the food. She couldn't help but be nervous on her way to the park. She kept on thinking to herself, "What if she says no? What if she thinks I'm trying to rush her and dumps me? What if she decides to hate me?" She smacked herself and said, "Come on Starlight. You know she loves you and if she says no, just wait until she is ready."

Around ten they arrived at the park. They ran to one another and embraced. Starlight said, "Fluttershy sweetie, it is so good to see you!"

Fluttershy replied, "I am happy to see you too Starlight!"

They lovingly kissed before sitting down to eat their meal. Starlight asked, "So honey, how have things been going since I last saw you."

Fluttershy replied, "Uhm, well they have been going well. Angel has been a bit pickier that normal."

Starlight laughed, "Well it's just part of who he is. I'm sure he appreciates you with as good as you are to him." She gave Fluttershy a smile and continued, "Fluttershy, you look absolutely lovely with those daisies in your mane!"

Fluttershy blushed, "I wore them just for you. I know how you love it when I do that."

Starlight replied, "I do love it! You are the most beautiful pony I have ever known but when you do that, it makes you even more beautiful!"

After that Starlight seemed to grow nervous and just couldn't seem to even eat that much. Fluttershy saw this and asked, "Starlight, what is wrong. Usually you devour my sandwiches, don't you like them?"

Starlight replied, "Well uh, uh....." She decided the time had come she levitated the necklace and ring out of her saddlebag and began, "Fluttershy, I know we have only been together for three months and you know how much I love you." She began to stutter a bit as she continued, "I tru-truly love you Fluttershy, I-I love you more than anything in the world an-and I can't imagine how my life would be without you." She began to tear up, levitated the necklace and ring to Fluttershy and asked, "Flut-Fluttershy, would you marry me? Would you make me the happiest mare in the world?"

Fluttershy put the necklace on and began to cry tears of joy, "Yes Starlight, yes! Yes I'll marry you!"

The two began to cry harder and engaged in a loving kiss, the type that neither mare wished would ever have to end. Many ponies in town were watching the two but couldn't help but feel happy for them. They knew of Starlight's past and how she had changed and they knew how much her and Fluttershy loved one another. Finally the two broke their kiss and held one another close as they finished their meal.

After an hour Fluttershy asked, "Starlight, don't you think you should get back to Twilight's castle? I'm sure she'll be upset if you are late for your study session."

Starlight replied, "Yeah, I probably should get going." They stood up, kissed again and Starlight continued, "Can I see you again tonight honey? Could we have supper together?"

Fluttershy replied, "Of course!"

Both expressed their love for one another before leaving the park. One pony couldn't help but watch their interaction with a sense of jealousy. While he had not seen Starlight in years, he was hoping that he could talk to her, get to know her all over again and maybe steal her away from Fluttershy.

A Huge Mistake

While Fluttershy began to head back towards her cottage, Starlight headed back towards Twilight's castle for a quick bite to eat before she started her afternoon study session. As she was heading to the castle a tan colored colt started walking by her. She picked up her pace to get away from him but he picked up his pace as well. She finally got sick of this and asked, "Would you please stop walking beside me?" She became more agitated and continued, "Who are you and what do you want?"

He got in front of her and said, "Hi Starlight."

Starlight sighed, "Hello yourself. Now what is it you want?"

He asked, "Don't you remember me? We were friends before I got my cutie mark."

The very sight of this pony made Starlight want to vomit. She sneered, "Oh, it's you Sunbust. What the hay do you want?"

He replied, "Actually, it's Sunburst."

Starlight asked, "Whatever, look I'm busy right now. What the hay do you want?"

Sunburst replied, "Well I was thinking that maybe we could get some supper tonight and catch up."

Starlight was becoming agitated. She snapped, "You want to catch up. Well here we go. I learned how to steal cutie marks, I ran my own town, I altered Starswirl's time travel spell, I nearly destroyed the time continuum, I became friends with Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends, one of them I fell in love with and proposed to today and now I'm being annoyed by you." She snorted and sneered, "There, happy?" She began to walk again and continued, "Now will you leave me the hay alone? I have things to do and I am not thrilled you are bothering me."

Once again Sunburst stepped in front of Starlight. He continued, "Starlight, I'm not here to bother you. I don't know if you know this or not but when we were growing up I had a crush on you. I just didn't know how to express it."

Starlight sneered, "Oh isn't that just so adorable and pwecious?" She levitated him out of the way and screamed, "Look, I never saw you like that and again I am going to ask you, would you just leave me the hay alone? I have things to do and just in case you are wondering, I am engaged to the most beautiful mare in the world so I have no desire to have supper with you, or even talk to you for that matter."

He grabbed Starlight's flank and replied, "Look, I just want you to get to know me again and give me a chance."

Starlight slugged him so hard he went flying. She yelled, "Are you stupid or something? I told you I am engaged and if you don't leave me alone, I'll call the cops."

He replied, "Whatever, you haven't seen the last of me. I'll get you to see that I'm better than this dumb mare you claim to love so much."

Now this sent Starlight into a rage. She grabbed him with her aura and slammed him into the ground. She yelled, "What did you say about my fiance? Now leave me alone or I'll do a whole lot more than call the cops."

With as much force as she had used on him all he could do was groan, "Fine."

Starlight got back on her way to the castle but one thing neither one of them knew was that when Fluttershy heard Sunburst begin to bother Starlight, she hid in the bushes and watched everything unfold. It was all she could do to not attack him right then and there but she had other plans, plans that would be brutal and plans that she hoped that Starlight would join her with, plans that Sunburst would not like.

When Starlight returned to the castle she was clearly frustrated. Twilight saw this and asked, "Starlight, what's wrong? Did Fluttershy say no? Did she dump you?"

Starlight replied, "No, she didn't." She began jumping up and down like a schoolfilly and continued, "She said yes! We kissed, held each other close and had the most romantic picnic we ever had!"

Twilight asked, "Then what was with the frustrated look when you got here?"

Starlight replied, "Well on the way back I ran into this pony that just kept pestering me and wouldn't leave me alone, a pony from my past."

Twilight asked, "Who was it? Was it one of the ponies from 'Our Town?'"

Starlight became agitated and replied, "No, it was Sunburst. He decides to just start walking besides me and despite me asking him several times to just leave me alone, he wouldn't do it. He just became more and more assertive in his attempts to talk to me."

Twilight asked, "What did he do? Did he say anything to agitate you to the level you are?"

Starlight snapped, "Yes, he did. He kept on wanting us to meet up for supper when Fluttershy and I already have plans and then he has the audacity to say that he wants me to dump Fluttershy and give him a chance." She stomped her hoof into the floor and yelled, "Then he called Fluttershy dumb, he grabbed my flank and he is saying that I haven't seen the last of him!"

Twilight sighed, "Starlight, I know you're mad but that is no reason to yell at me."

Starlight calmed down and replied, "I'm sorry Twilight. It's just that he can't get it through his head that I'm taken and that I just want to be left alone."

Twilight said, "Well I can understand that." Twilight began to snicker, "Well he better hope that Fluttershy didn't see all this. She would not take kindly to him bothering you and especially him touching your flank."

Starlight was stunned by Twilight's statement and snickering. She asked, "What is the snickering about and what would happen if Fluttershy saw what he did?"

Twilight replied, "Well I've never seen it myself but Applejack and Rarity have told me horror stories about what happens to ponies that really piss off Fluttershy. I don't know what happens to them but they go missing and eventually their corpse is found in the forest not too far away from Fluttershy's cottage."

Starlight smiled and asked, "Do you really think Fluttershy would do something to him? I want him to leave me alone but I could never imagine her hurting anypony."

Twilight replied, "Fluttershy may be the element of kindness but that kindness only goes so far. If what Rarity and Applejack says is true and she saw him bothering you, he is toast." Twilight looked towards the throne room and continued, "Enough of this negative talk. I know you are frustrated but maybe some studying will get your mind off of him bugging you......and please focus on our lesson, not your supper with Fluttershy tonight!"

Starlight nodded and followed Twilight. While she knew that Fluttershy gets mad at ponies who are mean to animals, she just couldn't fathom the sweet, innocent pony she loves so much being the type to harm anypony, much less kill them.

The Wrath of Two Mares

A couple hours after being sedated Sunburst finally came to. He looked around and saw not just Fluttershy, but Starlight. He asked, "Starlight, you're doing this too? I know you're mad at me and don't want me talking to you but it's no excuse to torture me!"

Before Starlight could say anything Fluttershy laughed, "Oh but it is. You see, it is not wise to piss me off and when you grabbed my fiance's flank, you really pissed me off!"

Sunburst sneered, "So Starlight, are you going to say anything or are you going to just stand there like a weakling and not do anything?"

Now this was the absolute wrong thing for him to say. Starlight launched herself at him and began to savagely beat him. Despite his cries for her to stop, she continued the assault until he was missing all his teeth. When he looked down and saw his teeth laying all over the place, Starlight couldn't help but laugh, "What was that about me standing here like a weakling?"

Before Sunburst could say anything Fluttershy began to giggle, "So sweetie, where shall we begin?"

Starlight saw that Fluttershy had all sorts of things in her basement that most ponies would not have. She levitated a whip to herself and laughed, "Oh I think I know where to start!"

Starlight began to whip Sunburst violently. She began to laugh manically as he was screaming in agony. Fluttershy had whipped ponies that abused animals before and was pleased that Starlight was enjoying this. He cried, "Please stop! I promise I'll never bother you again if you please stop."

Starlight stopped whipping him but this would not be the end of his torture. Fluttershy laughed, "My turn!" She saw his horn laying on the floor and picked it up. She smiled at Sunburst and continued, "So, you want Starlight to stop? Fine, but now it is my turn! This is going to be so much fun!"

She grabbed the horn and rammed it into his torso. Rather than stabbing him entirely, she decided she would mark him instead. She carved the word stalker into him, in all caps. This caused both mares to break down laughing. Starlight laughed, "Well now, you are marked for what you are....nothing more than a pathetic stalker!"

Sunburst yelled, "Buck you Starlight! I should have known that a unicorn as powerful as you would just spit on a normal unicorn like me!"

Starlight sneered, "Oh poor widdle Sunbust, hims can't stand the fact that I am engaged to a beautiful, loving mare rather than some stupid disgusting colt." She saw that Fluttershy had some chains laying on the floor and levitated them to herself. She continued, "Oh and just so you know, I've always been attracted to mares. The very thoughts of hooking up with a male is utterly repulsive."

He yelled, "A mare being attracted to another mare? That is just disg......." Before he could continue Starlight began to beat him with the chains. She was bound and determined to inflict as much pain as possible on him.

After a few minutes of beating him she stopped and couldn't help but laugh at his whimpering. She sneered, "Would you just shut up already? You're acting like a Faust-forsaken crybaby."

She had hit him so hard with the chains and delivered enough hits to the head that she had given him a concussion. Starlight continued, "Well Fluttershy honey, what shall we do next?"

Fluttershy replied, "You see these two cranks? You go over there and turn one while I turn the other one."

Starlight asked, "What will that do?"

Fluttershy kissed her and laughed, "Oh you'll see! I don't think he'll like it much but I know you will!"

Starlight and Fluttershy began to turn the cranks, causing the chains holding his legs to pull on his legs. Fluttershy had rammed the hooks through the bones in his legs so the hooks would not just tear through his skin. As his legs began to be stretched out further and further he began to cry in pain again. Fluttershy stopped turning her crank while Starlight continued to turn her's until they heard a tear and a horrid scream as his front legs were dislocated.

Starlight laughed, "Oh this is too funny! Hearing you cry and whine confirms what a pathetic weakling you really are!"

Sunburst yelled, "Well if somepony were doing this to you, you'd be the same way!"

Starlight smacked him and sneered, "This wouldn't happen to me because I know how to teleport while all you can probably do is levitate things and whine."

Fluttershy asked, "Well, I think it is time we move on. What do you think we should do next?"

Starlight replied, "Something extremely brutal, something that must be done outside, somewhere that nopony will see what I think we should do."

Fluttershy asked, "What is that?"

Starlight walked over to Fluttershy and whispered, "Well, we're going to need a shovel, some honey and since you can communicate with animals, I'm thinking you should talk to some fire ants and instruct them to do something incredibly painful."

Fluttershy had a shocked look on her face. She asked, "Why would we need ants?"

Starlight replied, "You'll see. This is something I studied when I was in school. It is a torture method used in other countries."

Fluttershy said, "Alright, let's do this."

They removed the hooks from Sunburst's legs causing him to fall to the ground. While Starlight grabbed a shovel and some honey, Fluttershy began to drag Sunburst by the tail. Since it was still daylight, they decided to drag him into the forest. Once they had got far enough in where nopony could see them, Starlight said, "Alright, let's get started."

Fluttershy still wasn't sure of what Starlight was going to do at first but once she saw her digging a hole in the ground, the wheels began to turn in her head. She asked, "Are we going to bury him up to his neck, put honey in his mouth and then turn fire ants loose on him?"

Starlight snickered, "Yes, this is going to be so much fun....well for us anyway!"

Sunburst heard this and was terrified. He screamed, "Please no! Please don't do this! I promise Starlight, I'll leave you alone forever. You'll never have to see my face again."

Starlight kicked him in the head and laughed, "Well it's too late for that. You grabbed my flank and caused my fiance undue stress so now you must be punished!"

Once she got a deep enough hole dug she levitated Sunburst into it and began to fill the hole until only his head remained above ground. Fluttershy grabbed the honey but could not get it in his mouth. She said, "Starlight, he won't open his mouth."

Starlight replied, "Oh I can fix that!" Starlight used her magic to pry his mouth open and Fluttershy filled his mouth with honey and just for the fun of it, she smeared honey over his whole head. Starlight continued, "That is perfect sweetie! Now we just need to find some fire ants."

Fluttershy saw an ant hill not too far away so she headed off to talk to the ants. She looked down and saw the ants carrying dirt to add to their hill and began, "Uhm, ants, I'm wondering if you could do something for me?"

The ants stopped carrying dirt and looked at her in attention. She pointed her wing at Sunburst and continued, "Could you go over and attack that pony's head?" They looked at her with disgust until she continued, "There's honey there for you!"

Very quickly the whole colony came swarming out and raced towards Sunburst. Fluttershy and Starlight quickly got out of the way as they did not wish to get attacked themselves. Very quickly they swarmed him and began to feast on the honey. It would not be long though until they began to crawl up his nose and into his mouth. A few even crawled into his ears. He was trying to scream but with a mouth-full of ants and honey, all he could do was moan in pain.

Starlight and Fluttershy grabbed a hold of one another and began to laugh hysterically. Fluttershy laughed, "Wow Starlight, this is brutal! I never knew anypony did this."

Starlight replied, "Yep, they do. I have even heard this practice used to be used by the buffalo on enemy tribes before they united when ponies moved into that area."

After a couple of hours of hearing Sunburst's screaming, he finally went silent. Fluttershy asked, "Is he dead?"

Starlight replied, "I think he is. Now disposing of the body is going to be tough since he is likely full of ants and they aren't going to take kindly to us moving their meal."

Fluttershy asked, "Think we could just cover his head with a pile of dirt."

Starlight looked around and replied, "We should be able to. We are far enough in the forest that nopony should find him."

Starlight began to dig up the dirt needed to cover his head. By the time they finished burying his head darkness had set over the land. Starlight noticed this and said, "Oh great, I'm late getting back to the castle. I just hope Twilight won't be mad at me."

Fluttershy asked, "Why would she be mad at you?"

Starlight replied, "Because she might think that by staying out late that I'm not taking my studies on friendship seriously and if she were to think that, things would not go all that well for me."

Fluttershy asked, "Would she have Celestia banish you somewhere because of what you've done in the past?"

Starlight replied, "I'm not sure but we better get going."

They headed back towards Fluttershy's cottage and despite being nervous about being late getting back to Twilight's castle, Starlight couldn't help but feel a great sense of liberation. She along with her fiance had wiped out her stalker. Now she would just have to hope that nopony found out as she did not want either her or Fluttershy to face murder charges.

Twilight's Discovery

In her castle Twilight was pacing back and forth, wondering where Starlight was. She looked out the window watching for her and sighed, "Where is she? She should have been back by now."

Spike commented, "Twilight, I'm sure she's probably still with Fluttershy. You know with them being engaged now, they'll likely spend more time together for supper."

Twilight sighed, "Clear up until nine? What could they possibly be up to?"

Spike laughed, "Well maybe......"

Twilight snapped, "No Spike. I know how both of them are. Neither one of them would do anything like that until they are married." Her pacing became more frantic as she continued, "Wait, I hope Sunburst didn't do something to them. He approached Starlight earlier today wanting to get back in her life but she rejected him and let him know she was taken."

Spike asked, "Who's Sunburst?"

Twilight replied, "Some colt that was Starlight's friend when she was a filly." Twilight had a nervous feeling and continued, "You stay here Spike while I go check on Starlight and Fluttershy."

Twilight raced over towards Fluttershy's cottage worried about what she might discover, until she realized that Starlight could easily overpower him if she needed to and remembered the stories about what Fluttershy will do to ponies that piss her off. She thought to herself, "What if Fluttershy saw Sunburst grab Starlight's flank and decided to kill him? What if Starlight joined her?"

When she arrived she heard laughing coming from the forest. She headed towards the laughing and found the two walking out of the forest with honey and a shovel. She saw them and first decided she would ask Starlight why she had not came back to the castle. She asked, "Starlight, where have you been? You should have been back a couple hours ago."

Starlight had a stunned look on her face, the type of look that a filly would have if her teacher caught her playing hooky. She replied, "Well um, Fluttershy and I just wanted to spend extra time together since we're engaged now."

Twilight narrowed her focus onto the honey and the shovel. She asked, "I figured that but what were you doing with honey and a shovel in the forest?"

While Starlight was afraid to tell the truth because of what the repercussions could be, Fluttershy figured it would be best to at least tell a bit of truth. She replied, "Well we had to take care of a problem, something that was causing Starlight a lot of undue stress."

Immediately Twilight knew what happened. She began to panic, "Oh no-no-no, this is bad, this is very bad! Please don't tell me, please don't tell me you killed Sunburst."

Both of them got sheepish grins on their faces and in unison they nodded their heads. Twilight continued, "Show me. Show me what you did to him."

Starlight replied, "Ok Twilight, we'll show you."

The three mares headed back into the forest. Since it was pitch dark, both Starlight and Twilight used their horns to create some light. Finally they reached the place where they had buried Sunburst. Twilight saw a pile of dirt and asked, "What the hay did you two do to him? Why is there a pile of dirt there."

Starlight replied, "You'll see." She sighed and continued, "You may want to stand back as I dig him up, I will likely make some fire ants very angry."

Twilight stood back and yelled, "What? Fire ants? You used the technique the buffalo used to use, didn't you?"

Fluttershy nodded as Starlight began to dig the body up. When she uncovered the head Twilight was stunned. She saw a head with numerous bite marks and had ants crawling in and out of it. As Starlight continued to dig him up the ants became more agitated. Twilight continued, "Fluttershy, can you get them to calm down?"

Fluttershy flew over and began to talk to the ants, letting them know that they need to calm down and almost immediately, they had become docile and were not a threat to the three. Finally Starlight exhumed his whole body and when Twilight saw the bruises from the beating, the missing teeth and the label on him, she gasped, "What?"

Fluttershy replied, "Well, he had to be punished for touching my fiance's flank! I couldn't let him get away with this."

Twilight yelled, "But you didn't have to carve a word into him! That is just barbaric!"

Fluttershy replied, "Well I was reading a story about a psychotic dentist that would torture her patients and she would mark her patients. I just thought it would be fun."

Twilight had a horrified look on her face. She never imagined that Fluttershy would be this brutal. She asked, "Fluttershy, is what I have heard from Rarity and Applejack true? Have you tortured other ponies to death?"

Fluttershy replied, "Uhm, yeah." She became more stern as she continued, "Look, the ponies I did that to were being mean to animals and this colt dared to touch my fiance! What would you have me do, let them get away with it?"

Twilight screamed, "But Fluttershy, murder is against the law and so is torture!" She looked at Starlight and continued, "And Starlight, I thought you would know not to do anything bad! I thought you would know that doing anything wrong might cause Celestia to banish you to the moon or put you in Tartarus after what you've done in your past!"

Fluttershy interrupted, "Twilight, we had to do something! I know at first Starlight was a bit nervous about doing this but I couldn't let him bother her anymore!"

Twilight turned to Starlight and asked, "Is this true? Were you nervous at first?"

Starlight replied, "Sort of. I was a bit worried that I might get punished but I wanted him to leave me alone and Fluttershy helped me realize that this was the only option."

Very quickly Twilight knew that had Fluttershy not decided to do this, that Starlight likely would have just avoided Sunburst. While she knew that they should be punished, she just couldn't bring herself to do it. She said, "Well, I know I should punish you two but I'm not going to. Fluttershy, you are a good friend and Starlight, I have seen how you have grown. Yes this is a setback for you but I honestly believe that had Fluttershy not wanted you to help her, he wouldn't be dead. Am I right?"

Starlight replied, "Yes, that is true. I just wanted to avoid him but when I saw Fluttershy had foalnapped him and was holding him captive, I wanted to help her get rid of him."

Twilight pointed at the shovel and ordered, "Starlight, could you dig an extremely deep hole. I think it would be best if we buried him deep."

Fluttershy asked, "So I take it this is just going to be between the three of us?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, this is just going to be between the three of us. After tonight, I don't want us to ever discuss this again....not even to one another. We need to bury this as we bury him."

Both mares nodded as Starlight continued to dig a deeper and deeper hole. Finally once it was ten feet deep, Twilight levitated Sunburst's corpse and lowered it into the hole. Starlight then filled the hole, feeling a sense of relief that neither her or her fiance would be punished by Twilight. As they headed back Twilight said, "After all this I'm thinking you two should really consider your futures."

Both mares nervously asked, "Really?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, really. I'm thinking it might be best if you two get married as soon as possible." She gave Starlight a stern look and continued, "Look, I'll continue to teach you about friendship but I think you'll be happier if you live with Fluttershy and I honestly don't know if I want a pony involved in murdering somepony else living in my castle."

Starlight replied, "But you know I would nev....."

Twilight interrupted, "I know you have grown and would never harm me but I simply think you two should get married as soon as possible so you will live together. Besides, if most of your time is spent with her, maybe you'll be able to focus on your studies instead of daydreaming about Fluttershy all the time."

Fluttershy kissed Starlight and asked, "Really, she daydreams about me all the time?"

Twilight replied, "Yes. She daydreams about you a lot and when we have our meals the only thing she talks about is you and her love for you."

Fluttershy hugged Starlight and said, "I love you so much! It makes me so happy to know that you think about me so much."

Starlight replied, "Well I love you dearly sweetie. I can't imagine living life without you."

Twilight gagged, "Ugh....can you save all the lovey dovey stuff for later."

They both nodded and headed back towards town. Twilight continued, "Look, I'll help you two file the proper papers and you could get married as soon as tomorrow if you want."

They both embraced and jubilantly agreed to Twilight's plan. Once they got back to Ponyville Fluttershy headed to her cottage while Starlight and Twilight headed back to the castle, where Starlight would spend one more night before beginning a new phase of her life, one that she knew would bring about a lifetime of happiness.

Fluttershy Marries Her Mare

The following morning arrived with excitement from Fluttershy and Starlight. In her cottage Fluttershy was singing to herself as she fixed her breakfast. Her animals asked her why. She replied, "Well uhm, I'm getting married today. I want you all to know that Starlight will be living with us now."

Angel frowned over hearing this. He did not like the idea of another pony living in the cottage and he especially did not like the idea of Fluttershy going to be giving almost all of her love and adoration to this other pony. Fluttershy glared at him and continued, "Look Angel, I love Starlight with all my heart and she will be living with us."

Angel scowled at her squeaking frantically that he did not approve of this but Fluttershy, unlike she used to would have been, she stood firm. "Look Angel, Starlight and I are getting married. She will be living with us and you won't be sleeping in my room anymore."

While this only caused Angel to be more displeased, he knew that with the way Fluttershy was being, that he would not be able to persuade her to not go through with her plans. After eating breakfast she headed over to Twilight's castle so she could have breakfast with them before heading to the town hall.

In the castle Starlight was up early, packing the few things that she had since she would be moving out before the day was over. Twilight headed up to her room to find Starlight singing some sappy song about getting married. Twilight gagged, "Starlight, I know you're excited about getting married but it is time for breakfast."

Starlight replied, "Alright, but if you were in my hooves wouldn't you feel the same way?"

Twilight replied, "I guess. I've never experienced romance before so I couldn't be completely sure."

When they arrived in the dining hall they heard a knock on the door. Twilight went to get it and as soon as she opened it, in rushed Fluttershy. Before Twilight could even say anything Fluttershy and Starlight were kissing passionately. All this romance was getting on Twilight's nerves. She yelled, "Would you two stop it?" The two broke their kiss and Twilight continued, "Look, I know you're happy but it is time for breakfast and passionate kisses should not be on the menu."

Fluttershy replied, "Alright Twilight."

Starlight asked, "So how are we going to do this?"

Twilight replied, "Well we will go over to town hall, you two will fill out the proper paperwork and then the mayor will marry you two."

Fluttershy asked, "Don't we get a big ceremony like Cranky and Matilda did?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, but in light of everything that recently happened, I think you should get married now and then a formal ceremony can be held later."

They both agreed and they sat down to breakfast. While Twilight was eating at a rather leisurely pace, Starlight and Fluttershy were devouring their meal. Once they all had finished their breakfast they headed to the town hall to get married. While Twilight was admittedly irritated that Starlight would not be available at all times for study sessions anymore, she was happy that her student would be happy.

Once they arrived at the town hall they immediately went to the mayor's office. She greeted them, "Hi Twilight, how can I help you today?"

Twilight pointed her wing at Fluttershy and Starlight. She replied, "These two want to get married today."

The mayor gave Fluttershy a smile and said, "Congratulations Fluttershy, I'm so happy for you." She then looked at Starlight and continued, "I mean no disrespect but what is your name?"

Starlight replied, "My name is Starlight Glimmer."

The mayor handed them the paperwork required to get married and they began to fill it out. Luckily for them it was a rather short, simple form. Unlike in the larger cities in Equestria, Ponyville did not require every single little thing about a pony's life to be recorded to get married. Once they finished filling it out they gave the papers to the mayor. She looked them over and asked, "Twilight, are you going to be the witness for these two?"

Twilight replied, "Yes, I will."

The mayor motioned for Fluttershy and Starlight to approach her desk. Given that this basically amounted to going before the justice of the peace, the mayor did not have to do much except do the vows. She asked, "Fluttershy, do you take this mare, Starlight Glimmer, to be your lawfully wedded wife? Do you promise to love, cherish and protect her, whether in prosperity or poverty, whether in sickness in health for the rest of your life?"

Fluttershy replied, "I do."

She turned to Starlight and asked, "Starlight Glimmer, do you take this mare, Fluttershy, to be your lawfully wedded wife? Do you promise to love, cherish and protect her, whether in prosperity or poverty, whether in sickness in health for the rest of your life?"

Starlight replied, "You bet I do!"

The mayor continued, "By the power invested in me, Mayor Mare of Ponyville, I now pronounce you mare and mare. You two may now kiss."

Fluttershy and Starlight began to kiss passionately. While the mayor was captivated by their loving moment, Twilight could only let out a sigh of disgust. While she was becoming sick and tired of the romance, deep down she was jealous of the two. Deep down she wished that she had a mare she could call her own. As the two broke the kiss and thanked the mayor, she replied, "Now don't have too much fun tonight!"

Both Starlight and Fluttershy blushed, knowing what she was hinting at....the thing that they had been saving themselves for. The three left the town hall and while Fluttershy and Starlight couldn't be happier, Twilight followed them with her head hung low. Starlight noticed this and asked, "Twilight, why so glum?"

Twilight broke down crying, "I'm jealous, I'm very jealous. I can't hide it anymore, I'm jealous of you two. I see how happy you are together and that you'll always have one another and who do I have.....NOPONY! I have nopony there for me. I don't have a mare to spend the rest of my days with, I don't have a mare to love, I don't have a mare to share my life with, I have nothing."

Fluttershy said, "Twilight, I want to tell you something."

Twilight asked, "What is that?"

Fluttershy replied, "I know she told me to not tell anypony but seeing you like this I can't help it. Not too long ago Rarity admitted to me that she has a crush on you and wished you two could be more than friends."

Twilight's ears perked up as she asked, "Really?"

Fluttershy replied, "Really! Now please don't tell........."

Before Fluttershy could even finish her sentence, Twilight headed off towards The Carousel Boutique. Fluttershy screamed, "Twilight, wait!"

It did no good though as Twilight was already well out of earshot. Starlight said, "Well hopefully she won't tell Rarity that you told her." She gave her a kiss and continued, "Well shall we go to the castle, get my stuff and head home? I'm so excited for us to begin our new life together."

Fluttershy replied, "I'm excited for that too."

They headed to the castle, grabbed Starlight's stuff and headed to what is now their cottage. While most of the animals were happy to see Starlight, Angel couldn't help but be mad. He jumped on her back and began stomping and squeaking in anger. While Starlight had no clue what he was saying, it wasn't anything good. Fluttershy yelled, "Angel Bunny, that's no way to talk to my wife!"

She ordered Angel to get off Starlight's back and the two mares headed to what is now their bedroom. Fluttershy closed the door and very soon the animals in the cottage heard noises they had never heard before. They couldn't help but be curious as to what all the squealing, moaning and giggling was all about. With the exception of Angel, all that mattered to them was that Fluttershy was happy.

Abduction of the Enemy

After Starlight had got back to the castle Fluttershy headed over to the stunned Sunburst. While she was so mad that she could hardly hold it in, she knew that she would have to be nice and lull Sunburst into a false sense of security. She stood by him and asked, "Are you ok?"

Sunburst replied, "No. Some bitch unicorn that I wanted to have supper with turned me down and then slammed me into the ground. She claimed that she had plans to have supper with her fiance, who just so happens to be a mare!" He gagged a little and continued, "That is just sick! Mares marrying other mares? That just isn't right."

Fluttershy replied, "Well I don't know what to tell you." She saw that he had several scars and continued, "Why don't you come with me. I can get those scars taken care of for you."

He got up and replied, "Thanks. I would really appreciate it."

He followed Fluttershy to her cottage and saw all the animals in there. He asked, "I take it you really like animals."

Fluttershy replied, "Yes, I do." She pointed her hoof towards a door that led to her basement. She continued, "Enough about me liking animals, let's get you fixed up."

When he got down there he was stunned. He saw chains and hooks hanging from the ceiling. He asked, "What in Equestria is all of this down here?" He suddenly became scared and screamed, "You're not going to heal me are you? You're going to kill me!"

Fluttershy slammed her hoof so hard on his head that she gave him a concussion. She laughed, "Oh, I don't know about that but I don't appreciate you hitting on my fiance and I am not happy that you grabbed her butt."

He gasped, "Wait a minute, you're Starlight's fiance? She's going to marry you?"

Fluttershy grunted, "Yes she is. You have a problem with that."

Despite having a concussion he was still quite coherent. He sneered, "Oh and what if I do?"

Fluttershy laughed, "Oh you'll see."

Fluttershy had grabbed a saw and headed towards him. With him having a concussion he was unable to stop her with his magic and was scared of what she might do. She saw a few sparks coming out of his horn. She laughed, "I know you're not much of a threat right now but this has got to go."

He saw her eyeballing his horn and yelled, "No, please don't take my horn! It's what makes me a unicorn."

Fluttershy laughed, "Oh you poor little baby." She began to saw his horn off causing him to scream in agony. After she finished cutting his horn off she continued, "Well you're not the first unicorn I've done this to so you're nothing special."

He asked, "Wait a minute, you've done this before?"

She pointed at the blood stained walls and replied, "What do you think? Those blood stains didn't magically just show up!"

He shouted, "Well you're not going to be able to keep me down here forever. Somepony will notice I've gone missing and once it is known that you are Starlight's fiance, they'll come here and save me."

While he was shouting Fluttershy had grabbed a syringe and drew up some sedatives. She held it up and replied, "You know, I wouldn't be so sure about that."

She rammed the needle into his neck and injected the sedatives. Within a minute he was out like a light and this is when Fluttershy is able to do what makes her punishments so brutal. She turned a crank and lowered them so she could run hooks through his front hooves and then raised them, causing him to be lifted with them. She then rammed the lower hooks through his hind legs. She began to stretch him by raising the upper hooks further. Finally she had him in the position she wanted. She laughed, "Now I just wait for Starlight to finish her studies and come over here. This could be our first truly bonding experience!"

Several hours had passed and finally Starlight was able to show up for supper. Fluttershy heard a knock on her door and headed up stairs. Rather than kissing as soon as Fluttershy let her in, Fluttershy decided that they should talk a bit. She asked, "Honey, how has your day been?"

Starlight replied, "Well after we parted ways not so good. I had this annoying unicorn bugging me most of the way back to the castle. He kept on asking me to go out with him to supper and he grabbed my flank so I did what any rational thinking mare would do, I slammed him into the ground."

Fluttershy asked, "So who is that pony that did that?"

Starlight replied, "He was a friend of mine when I was a filly. Sunburst is his name."

Fluttershy asked, "Starlight honey, can we wait until later to discuss more things regarding this guy. I have something I need to show you."

Starlight replied, "Sure."

Fluttershy put her wings over Starlight's eyes and led her into the basement. She heard a pony groaning. She asked, "Fluttershy, what is that groaning noise?"

Fluttershy pulled her wings away and yelled, "Surprise!"

Starlight opened her eyes and screamed in shock, "What? What is he doing down here?" She then noticed that she had his hooves secured with hooks and asked, "Wait a minute, is what Twilight told me true? Do you torture and kill ponies that make you mad?"

Fluttershy replied, "Well sometimes, but only the ones that really piss me off and he really pissed me off." She kissed Starlight and continued, "Now you won't have to worry about him stalking you anymore!"

Starlight kissed Fluttershy back and replied, "No, I won't."

Fluttershy began to innocently giggle, "Do you want to help me punish him for grabbing your flank? Do you want to help me punish him for calling me dumb?"

While Starlight had done many things that ponies considered bad, she had never even imagined torturing ponies before. While it felt kind of weird to her, she replied, "Yeah, sure."

Fluttershy batted her eyes at Starlight and said, "This could be such a bonding experience for us! It could make us even closer than we already are!"

Starlight nervously laughed, "It could."

Fluttershy said, "But I think we should wait until he comes to a bit more. I want the sedatives to wear off, I want him to see you helping me punish him."

Starlight replied, "Alright, sounds good."

Fluttershy was thrilled that Starlight wanted to join her in torturing Sunburst. To her it was a sign that Starlight truly did love her and would not allow herself to fall into situations that may not be in the best interests of their relationship while Starlight, despite being surprised Fluttershy was actually like this, realized that this could be a liberating moment for her.
