"There you are." Cadance trotted up to her mate, taking in the big white wings framing Shining's face. "Excuse me, everypony." When an alicorn raised their voice and asked for quiet, ponies gave it, it was a rule in Equestria. "I believe you have had the pleasure of Shining's attention, and once I am done with him you shall have it again, but I believe my mare and I need a chat."

The request got cheers and laughs from the ponies gathered around; 'party' was the mood in the Crystal Empire that day and even alicorns wouldn't stop the ponies from embracing it.

"Shiny, what happened?" Cadance got her mate away and the pair found a bench to sit, Flurry bouncing off one parent's back and being caught up in her mother's magic.

"I found two colts picking on a changeling… filly, are they called fillies?" Shining tilted her head a touch and Cadance almost lost control and cuddled her mate tight.

"I believe they are called larva when really small, they grow so fast I don't think they are referred to so much when they are fully shaped but not adult." Cadance nuzzled and kissed Flurry on the nose, getting the foal to lift her hooves up and try to cover her olfactory organ in surprise.

"Well, they were picking on her and I stepped in. You know I can't allow that." Shining watched her wife play with their foal, as a parent there wasn't a lot better than this moment. "They seemed not to recognize me, although the drone did. Then their father came out and he felt… dirtied. He sure wasn't nice to his own foals."

"Something I doubt you will ever be guilty of." Cadance had their filly on her back, attacking her belly with gentle hooves.

"The dirtiness seemed to grow but then… then the Crystal Heart did something. The first pulse seemed to drive the dirtiness out of him. Cadi, it was some kind of ghost!" Shining reached a hoof over and tousled the filly's mane. "I wasn't sure what to do, but it was like the heart had triggered through me. Then it pulsed again." She lifted her wings, showing one and then the other. "That is when a lot of power seemed to pour through me, then these were there."

"Don't seem to do anything by half, do you Shiny?" Cadance looked up from their daughter, the filly figuring out the direction of her mother's glance and tilting her head back to look at Shining too.

"Was I meant to let them do that? Let that thing keep twisting the poor stallion into hating his foals?" Shining lost any hope of having an argument; looking at her wife and their foal, she knew she would give in to either.

"Of course not. But you do realize the implications of this?" Cadance gestured with one of her wings at Shining's own. "Shiny, you aren't likely to change back now, you are a princess and I think your domain most perfect."

"My what?" Shining tilted her head. She was used to her body as it had been, it hadn't taken long and now she was having more issue with controlling her wings than the rest of her body.

"Domain? Mine is love, your sister's is friendship…" Cadance leaned over and nuzzled her mate. "I think yours is likely going to be justice, or just defense. Either I am perfectly happy with. What about you, do either of those feel right?"

Shining had to break his focus on Cadance and look inwards. Closing her eyes she thought about it, running the two words over in her mind. Neither seemed to fit perfectly, maybe it was more complex than a single word could describe. "I think I will get used to the princess bit first, then maybe the world will make sure I learn what it thinks I am best at."

"A good answer, but promise me that when the world has its answer, you won't force it to beat you over the head with it. We really don't need another castle." Cadance was back to playing with Flurry, but she waited for her mate's reply. "Oh wait, that reminds me. I really should get into the habit of calling you my wife, since you seem to have taken to femininity so much."

Shining snorted. "Okay, no waiting for a monster to escape from Tartarus and destroy our home, before accepting my destiny."

The banging on the door stopped and Vinyl lifted her head. She waited in case whichever bored pony who had been banging on it had been replaced. "Sassaflash?" She turned to one of the few pegasi who had kept their seed. The mare looked weary but she nodded.

Flying up to the little windows high in the town hall, she gazed down and almost forgot to flap her wings. "Uh, get the door open, quick!"

Vinyl looked a little confused. "You sure?" With a nod from the pegasus she began to pull the cabinets away from the doors, getting them open just in time to see Fluttershy herding around some cockatrices. "Fluttershy?"

One of the creatures turned on Vinyl and the mare could tell it was trying to stare her into immobility. It wasn't working.

"Oh, Vinyl! You have some friends with you?" Fluttershy's wings had flared in surprise but they settled back.

"Yup, nearly everypony with a seed in them… nearly… oh Tartarus!" Vinyl suddenly bolted from the hall, Octavia rousing from where she had been resting to start to follow.

"Vinyl! What's wrong?" Fluttershy stepped carefully around the stallion and mare who were frozen on the doorsteps.

The word everypony heard from the unicorn sent a cold chill up their spines. The word that Vinyl said was, "foals!"

A song pulled the white mare along, she followed her senses in a gallop, right to Sweet Apple Acres. At the front gate, she looked around but it was her ears that twitched at the sound of a note. Trembling in fear of what she might find, Vinyl approached the tree house a particular three fillies used. Getting to the base of the thing, she saw the ramp leading up to it was broken, but it was the sweet song coming from within that eased her. "Sweetie Belle?"

The singing stopped abruptly, but the song radiating from within the little building only grew in intensity. "Vinyl!" A white head with adorable curls poked out. Sweetie Belle smiled down. She didn't know quite why she trusted that Vinyl wasn't going to act crazy, but she did.

Vinyl's throat was a little dry after the flat-gallop to get to the farm, but she managed to lift her voice. "Sweetie, you have all the foals?" When the little head bobbed up and down Vinyl folded down to her belly. The song that floated from the tree, far away, was almost an 'I told you so' in the mare's head. "Yeah yeah, I get it, they are mature enough to keep theirs."

Other ponies, not quite having gotten the head-start that Vinyl did, started arriving and more than a few parents retrieved foals from the tree house. When the three town-trouble-makers descended, Vinyl marched up and let out a deep sigh. "You did good." She reached out a hoof and ruffled Sweetie's mane a little, getting a laugh from the filly.

"Of course, we are the Cutie Mark Crusaders!" Scootaloo lifted a wing out and it was met by Apple Bloom's hoof and a glow of magic that left Sweetie's horn. It was just about the most adorable thing Vinyl had ever seen.

Back in her castle, Celestia basked. Cheesecake was brought to her; she had a party to plan. "Are you inviting all of Equestria?" Luna was peeking over her sister's shoulder, spotting the invite list as simply reading 'everypony'.

"Lulu, how often have either of us gotten pregnant?" Celestia circled and underlined the single word list. When Luna didn't reply, she gave a nod. "Exactly. But you are right in one thing, I should send invitations to a few special ponies… can you remember the names of those stallions we met on the beach?"

Luna laughed. "Nope, not at all." The idea of their little escapade still thrilled the dark princess. "You would really invite them?"

Celestia started making an actual list. "Of course, thanks to the issue with the windigo, the nobles have calmed themselves down. I am sure a few dalliances would not be too far from their moral allowances."

"Are my mares not getting their proper care?" Twisty didn't announce herself as she entered, the changeling wearing a few white ribbons woven through her mane. "Maybe I need to fill you both with eggs again?"

"You need more drones?" Luna was up and on her hooves, moving to meet the queen changeling halfway; the pair shared a loving nuzzle. "I think you need more drones." Luna turned away, offering her plot to the changeling.

To the side, Celestia collected some more delicious cheesecake on a fork and brought it to her mouth. Now her attention was split between making the list and watching as her sister was mounted by Twisty.

"Since one of my mares has gone and gotten herself pregnant, I guess I will have to simply put twice as many eggs in you." Twisty was atop the dark mare, the glorious mane spilling around her. Luna had lifted her tail obligingly and with practiced precision the changeling's ovipositor hit its mark.

Letting out a happy grunt, Luna arched her back, pushing rearward so that she could claim more of her lover. She adored the thought of carrying a lot of eggs. The little ones around the castle had her playing hide and seek on a nearly daily basis, she couldn't resist them. Or Twisty. As more and more of the thick ovipositor pushed in, she did moan and clench, trying to hug her lover's organ as tight as she could.

Twisty bucked and thrust, she didn't strictly need to, but she certainly would not short her lover on pleasure. Fighting the tight grip of the alicorn, she fed more and more of her thick ovipositor deep into Luna until she came to rest against her cervix. "Relax, my mare…"

"Speak… speak for yourself." Luna panted between words, going so far as to repeat herself a little. "Are you… are you going to talk… or fill me?"

The changeling's shaft had been leaking the muscle relaxant goop, the gentle thrusts she gave smearing it all over the mare's innermost barrier. It didn't last long against the chemical assault and Luna cried out in bliss as what should have been a sore assault was rendered bliss by the changeling's physiology.

When the first egg pressed against her entrance, Luna arched her head back and moaned loudly. She knew what was coming and was happy to give herself to every moment of it. She barely had time to breathe as the egg pushed in, forcing her passage to spread around the bulge in the flesh-tube. She cried out, again and again, only stopping when the egg came to rest inside her. "More?" Twisty leaned up and nipped at the alicorn's ear, her razor sharp fangs piercing it easily and leaving a tiny hole.

"Y… P… ugh…" Luna wasn't able to speak, her words were stolen from her by the amazing fullness. Instead, she nodded, a lot. Her reward came in moments as another thick shape pressed, inside the ovipositor, against her entrance and had the alicorn screaming her lungs out, the whimpers and pleading filling the room.

Twisty turned and looked at Luna's sister, still eating her desert. "Silenced, don't worry." Celestia ate another bite of the delicious food.

With the assurance they would not be interrupted, Twisty fed egg after egg into the mare, causing her belly to bloat and swell outwards with the amount. Luna never made it back to her couch, she flopped on her belly on the ground, basking in the glory of repeating orgasms and warm sunlight both.

Twisty lay down beside Luna, snuggling up to her mare. "There, feeling better?" The hefty bulge of Luna's belly pressed against the changeling, it was certainly not something she found unpleasant.

"You… you know I do." Luna panted, leaning out to nuzzle into the green mane of the Twisty's. She felt a slight drain, the telltale that her lover was feeding. The Princess of the Night closed her eyes and felt for the touches, unable right then to feel any touch as anything but pleasure.

Celestia's eyes blinked and she stared off, her head turning so she faced the north. "What was that?" Her question was of nopony, but it didn't stop the two lovebirds from responding to it themselves.

"It was powerful and far away, which means very powerful." Twisty looked at Luna and could only grin. It was quite clear Luna was beyond any hope of focusing her power right then.

Twilight's head spun to look over her shoulder. The swell of magic that flooded from the north felt familiar and new all at the same time. A slight touch of comfort within it tipped her off that it was something her brother had wrought. Then a new thought came to her. "We have to tell my parents!"

"When the trains will stop here again." Gel had missed the magic, apparently not quite attuned enough to such, to feel it. "Remember? Standard procedure, whenever Ponyville seems to be acting strange, the trains just don't stop here for a while."

"I could teleport us?" Twilight had almost forgotten a disaster was happening right now, since for once she and her mates were not part of the cure for it.

"No, no teleporting until the foal is born." Gel kissed Twilight's cheek then turned at the distracted-looking earth pony. "You are quiet?"

Applejack took a deep breath. "Ah couldn't stop mahself."

"Of course you couldn't, you can't do everything, AJ." Twilight looked at their lover. "I am a princess and even I couldn't do anything to stop this, I had to run away like a filly."

It was a struggle for the farmer to fight with words against two ponies, particularly these two. "Ah still don't like it."

"What about me?" Gel blinked innocently a few times. He got a kiss for his effort.

"You I like."

"And me?" Twilight saw those big eyes turn to her.

"You I like too."

"That's enough for me." Gel nuzzled one, then the other.

Author's Note

Aww, so much adorableness in this one. Also, Luna does look better with a belly full of eggs, it is a scientific fact.
