"Well…" Applejack looked across the table at Fluttershy. "Don't suppose'n you know any of what the hay is going on?"

"No…" Fluttershy chased the last of her salad around the plate. The pair had been left, except for the servant ponies who kept bringing food out, to themselves. "You don't suppose somepony is hurt, do you?"

"Ah know somethin ain't right here and we gonna hafta get to the bottom of it." Applejack pushed her plate away and got up. "Cadance? Twilight?" She trotted up to the door where their friends had left through over an hour ago. "Hello?" She poked her head out to see a terrified-looking guard. "Well howdy thar, what was it you told the princesses that got their knickers in a bunch?"

"I-I-I-I… can't…" The guard was shaking like a leaf, surely if there was a problem his princess should have been back by now.

A second shape pushed the door open, a yellow mare with bright pink mane and cute wings. "Um, excuse me? Where is Princess Cadance, Princess Twilight and Muffins?" The guard was frozen by the mare's eyes, he couldn't look away.

"There… there was a problem…" The guard's will lost the fight and he blurted out the rest in a rush. "Ponies are missing and the princesses went after them and now they are missing and I can't find anypony in charge and I don't know what to do and I stole a little of the cake that was meant for dessert and when I was a colt I picked on a filly named Crystal Eyes and made her cry so much that-" A yellow hoof pressed against his snout and the stallion was trapped in the pegasus' eyes again.

"It's okay, I am sure they will be okay, you should go to your barracks and find your friends." Fluttershy smiled to the poor stallion, she could sympathize with him, after all.

The guard nodded slowly and turned, he was at a dead gallop down the castle, barely holding in a scream.

"Well now we have a problem sugarcube, princesses and their big magic couldn't help, but I have a feeling we can." Applejack's smile bolstered Fluttershy. The earth pony was known for honesty, sure, but dependability was another wonderful trait of her friend.

"So we should go ask the guards for help?" Fluttershy, however, wasn't quite inspired enough to be ready to dash to the rescue of some of the most amazing and magical ponies she knew.

AJ lifted a hoof up and almost face-hoofed, but she lowered it back down and smiled. "No Fluttershy, we gotta go find out what happened to 'em ourselves."

Fluttershy gulped and nodded, following her friend down the castle and toward the front gate. It seemed quiet, really quiet. The gate was ajar and when Applejack walked up and peeked out Fluttershy saw one of the bravest mares she knew duck back in and look shocked. "What's the matter?" Fluttershy couldn't think what would scare Applejack like that.

"Varmints, big big big varmints! Ants…" AJ lifted her hoof to indicate about half her own size. She looked back around the door and nodded, adjusting her hoof-height a little higher.

Fluttershy looked perplexed. "That can't be right, ants are tiny little… ant!" One of the things Applejack had been describing poked its head in the gate and the champion apple-bucker turned around on her forehooves, swiveling her plot around to aim right at the critter. There was a thud that, if the blow that caused it had hit a tree, would have broken it in half. "Oh my! We need to find everypony!" Fluttershy's wings were spread and she was shocked at the situation, but she felt a resolve inside. Come on Flutters, she thought, everypony is depending on you. "Lets go!"

Applejack was amazed as the normally timid mare bolted from the castle, her voice raised in a high-pitched squeal as she galloped. "Right behind ya!" AJ grinned and set her hooves to work, driving her forward into a powerful gait that would surely eat up distance.

More of the things were crawling around the city center, the two mares watched as ponies, covered in pink goop, were being carried along by the ants.

"Fascinating!" Fluttershy couldn't help but think what they were doing, why they were doing it. It intrigued her as the doings of all animals did. Thanks to that she almost got hit with a gob of pink stuff herself. AJ had bounded forward and lashed out with a hoof right as the ant tried to fire the suppressant and its shot went wide.

"Where are we going?" Applejack called, having to dodge behind a barrel as a glob of the pink stuff slammed into her cover.

Fluttershy raised a hoof. "That way!" AJ looked, trying to work out how the pegasus just knew. Then it dawned on her, that was the direction most of the ants could be seen, and, the direction they were carrying ponies.

Gel didn't feel the train stop, he was off it at a run and pounding his hooves to get to the castle. He saw a pony beside him stop and turn, bright pink stuff painting one side of them. "Oh no you-" He looked up and saw a ball of the goop hit him right in the head.

There was a shudder and tremble and Gel felt the shunt as he landed in another of his gooplicates, this one was curled up inside Starry. He had a quick decision to make, did he trust Twinkle? He searched himself and decided he did. He shifted and squirmed, adjusting himself and pushing at the mare's cervix from the inside. It was not an easy struggle, her body was closed tight around its burden and it felt like the better part of forever before he finally got the muscle to relax and worked out through it.

Starry woke to the most wonderful of feelings. She bucked her hips and moaned loudly, her body instinctively arching into the attentions of the lover that was within her. Slowly, she felt them pull free and her body reached its peak.

Oh wow I… he is gone! Twinkle's voice in her head felt a little scared, but Starry could tell it wasn't for the loss of the odd companionship, she felt the slight fear of being left alone, of what could happen if Twinkle made more of herself.

"Relax, Twinkle, you are safe." Starry curled in a ball, her pulse still racing. A little black gooplicate, slick with her own musky scent, stood just in front of her. "Oh, hello Gel. Didn't you go to the Crystal Empire… again?"

"Don't ask… well, okay, do ask, but we need to get to Canterlot, the Crystal Empire is lost." Gel sounded so serious that both Twinkle and Starry both paid close attention, listening to his story about the monsters that seemed so very effective at capturing ponies.

"Then lets go, the princesses need to hear about this!" Starry exclaimed, reaching a hoof out to the foal-sized Gel.

Gel felt powerless, it didn't help that this form he had intentionally kept small, but the gentle touch of the mare helped to reassure him. He looked up at her and smiled. "Yes!"

The pair galloped through the streets of Ponyville, in the dead of the night. The train station was deserted but there was a train, the first for the morning that was to come, that was waiting on the tracks. "Starry, do you know how to drive that?" Gel's idea was foolproof, of course she would-

"Nope, no clue. I sold fake fortunes to ponies…" Starry looked longingly at the big locomotive, then she had a thought. "What about if we took one car? I could try pushing it… oh, that little one!" She lifted a hoof in the darkness to the little two-handled push-car.

The pair climbed onto the little car and Starry settled in on one side. "Twinkle, can you take the other side?"

Of course I can, lets be the heroes. The voice inside Starry sounded proud and determined and, wrapping their magic around the handle of the car, they started to pump and push the little car forward, to Canterlot!

Bold Stroke woke from her favorite dream. She wasn't a queen and she was her queen's special changeling, she woke and slowly the dream's twist on the world faded, but she smiled. Beside her on the bed, Twisty, her Queen, lay. And beside her the most curious thing, two alicorn sisters were… tangled, together.

Twisty roused from her doze, eyes flickering onto Bold. "My breeder, how was your sleep?" The words tickled at Bold's senses, just how her queen had intended them. She lifted her snout and her bulky body shifted as she nuzzled against one of the other changeling's hooves. The naughtiest of thoughts filtered in and she heard a whimpered moan as one of Twisty's holes had a tongue poked into it.

Bold drew her tongue back out but returned the gesture, she knew how sensitive that place was for a changeling mare. Changeling stallions too. Movement on the bed that wasn't her queen got Bold's attention a moment, she watched as a dark princess rose up and looked. "What are you doing to our stallion?" Luna's voice carried no accusation, only curiosity. Then she saw the oddly pink tongue of the changeling, lapping in and out of one of the queen's leg-holes. "Sensitive? Hrrmmm."

Luna lay down, bringing her snout nearly nose-to-nose with the other changeling. She first licked the hoof gently, then the changeling's nose. It was playful, but then the alicorn was in a playful mood, and despite her having no particular love for the new changeling in her bed, the mare's belly was an obvious sign that she certainly had Twisty's favor. She found her own hole and began to lick and tease, hearing her lover moaning loudly and thrashing. Luna had to use her magic to restrain her back end so those delicious hooves would not get away.

Bold lived up to her name, she brought her tongue up and licked, then kissed Luna's own lips. The surprised alicorn wore a grin at her game gaining a new player. Luna shifted, adjusting her position to a bit higher and, while Bold worked on those wonderful legs, the princess sunk her own tongue into Twisty's mound.

Twisty was in blissful heaven. Neither of her mares had ever played with her holes… those holes, in that way and she turned her head to look as Bold took one hoof in her mouth completely, letting her tongue attack any hole she wished. The grip of Luna's magic was welcome, without it the queen was sure to squirm and flop off the bed completely. A new touch started at her back hooves and she looked down to see a white snout join in. Twisty lifted her head up and cried out her orgasm at having her three delicious mares play with her.

Celestia had watched a little bit, discovering how wonderfully the attention to those hooves stirred her stallion. She took over from Bold, leaving the changeling to contemplate things. She had her queen before her, perfect and receiving all the attention that was her due, but a stirring inside, as she watched the alabaster and obsidian plots of her queen's mares. Something dropped and pushed free and Bold knew the purpose for her body being able to hold so many eggs. She moved up behind Celestia, princess of Equestria, and she bore down on the mare and pushed her ovipositor into her.

Bold watched with delight, seeing Celestia's wide eyes as she was mounted. The alicorn couldn't stop herself, she lifted her plot up, pushing back against the surprise lover. The eggs, when they started to flow, were much, much larger than normal. Her body didn't struggle, however, even as it felt like the partially-matured eggs were shoved in deep, Celestia gagged herself on Twisty's hoof as the second changeling forced the queen's eggs into her.

Twisty watched as the princess got stuffed with eggs again, Bold once more lived her name, making Celestia's belly swell more and more with each new addition until it matched what Luna's had been like, when she had carried nearly twenty-five eggs.

Luna rolled to the side so she could watch as she pleasured her lover, she saw as Celestia's belly grew bigger and bigger. Luna drew her snout back, suckling a little on the ovipositor that barely poked free of the queen changeling's mound. "Us next." Her eyes flashed at Bold.

Bold trembled, she felt more than love and desire, she felt acceptance. "You next." She smiled down as she watched Luna return to her task, felating the ovipositor and sinking her nose down to press against the changeling's bulging vulva. She loved her queen, but the best thing about love, Bold was learning, was that sharing it didn't reduce it.
