Corruption: A Demon's Love Story
Chapter 7 - Questions
Previous ChapterNext ChapterLibi sits on a branch of Twilight’s crystal tree palace, twiddling her locket between her fingers. She heaves a big sigh, and leans back against the tree.
“Why did it have to get so complicated? I would of never accept this bloody contract with Twilight if I knew she was like she is!” Libi mutters, glaring at the sun like it is somehow at fault, “By all rights, an Ethereal shouldn’t feel anything when having sex with a mortal creature…”
Irritated, Libi stands up and start pacing back and forth across the branch.
“It is because she has that! It sits inside her like a tainted seed, waiting to bloom and fester… and whenever I’m near her it seeps into me, changing me… empowering me…”
Libi looks down sadly holding a hand to her chest.
“But so does her feeling… feelings I don’t want or need. Damn ponies for being so emotional! I nearly lost everything this morning, and this power I’ve gained from her would mean nothing if I became trapped!”
Libi brings her locket to her face, opening it before gazing in, her face becoming sadder.
“What would you do in this situation dad?”
The locket remains silence, reminding Libi how very alone she is. She lets off a sad laugh, as she closes the locket, placing it back around her neck.
“I know one thing, if I wasn’t under contract with Twilight... I would kill her now!”
Twilight feels a cold shiver going down her spine and she shivers. She looks around to see if anypony has left open a window… no, no pony has. Shrugging it off, she gets back to trying to read, she has wasted too much time with Libi already and she needs to find a way to remove her penis… also she needs to take her mind off this morning.
‘I almost kissed her…’ Twilight thinks, getting distracted and touching her lips, she remembers Libi’s warm breath on them and how very close she was to taking them…
Twilight suddenly slams her head against the table!
“Damn it! I never even kissed anypony before, beside family, and now I’m fantasizing about making out with a demon!” Twilight says, trying to tell herself off.
But soon the angry expression disappears on her face and is replaced with a sad one.
“Why doesn’t she want to kiss me…” Twilight says, sadly, until she realizes what she is saying and facepalms herself hard, “Damn it! Why do I want to kiss her!!”
Twilight quickly gets back to reading, trying to distract herself. It works this time, she finishes looking through this book and is about to grab another, when she notices her book about demons on the table, which she must of absentmindedly pulled off the shelf when she grabbed this pile of books.
‘Maybe that can tell me about why demons don’t like to kiss?’ Twilight thinks, before slapping herself again, “Why am I so hang up about this? I got more important things so reseach, I can look this stuff up later, after Libi’s gone…”
Unsurprisingly it doesn’t take long for Twilight to put down the other book and pick up the demon’s one. Sadly since this is an old book, it doesn’t have a index, so Twilight has to scan through every page to find anything. Eventually she finds the title ‘Kisses’ under the ‘Binding’ part of book.
It reads: ‘There are many ways to bind a demon to oneself, by binding it to circle, making a deal, blood pacts, etc, but the most unheard one is to steal a kiss from a demon. This will bind a demon to your side only for the rest of your life, but beware to those who wish to try this, since a demon will defend their lips to the death, even if they are already binded, and that includes killing their master if they have to...’
Twilight stops read from there, since she now gets why Libi doesn’t want her to… why she doesn’t like to kiss. Twilight is about to close the book, when she remembers a question she had a while go. Can demons get impregnated by ponies? Thinking that she might as well see if this book has anything on that, she flicks through the pages again.
Surprisingly it does. In the sparse ‘Demon Anatomy’ section of book, which doesn’t really have much in it, but does have something on demon fertility. It says that can control their fertility and can choose when to be fertile, but demons can’t have children with ponies and the like… unless the demon in question is going through a strange stage, which causes them to lose control of their fertility and became very fertile, letting them even conceive with ponies, making them spawn half-breeds. When theses stages appear, they differ between demons, sometimes months or years between them, although demons always know when it is going to happens.
Twilight closes the book. ‘That was fascinating… I guess,’ Twilight thinks, unsure what to make of it, ‘I wonder when Libi’s time is?’
Shaking her head, Twilight dismisses those thoughts and gets back to reading. Now that she has answered all her questions she can without having to talk to Libi, so she can finally do some good....
“Hey Twilight! What are you doing?” yells Rainbow Dash, bursting into the room... “Twilight, what are doing with that book?” she says this to a Twilight who is holding a book as if she is about to throw it at her.
“Oh, what?” Twilight says, noticing what she is about to do and sheepishly putting the book back down, “I was just surprised.”
“Ok?” Rainbow Dash says, unsure what to think, “Anyway, this afternoon we are all going down to the lake to have swim and you’re invited, coming?”
“Actually I’m busy, so sorry I can’t come,” Twilight dismisses, settling back down to read.
“Actually you have no choice,” Rainbow Dash says, smirking, “Spike has told us you’ve been talking to yourself, and we haven’t seen you since the sleepover, so you're coming whether you like it or not.”
“But I have important research to do!” Twilight protests, unset. Not to mention this the only time since she’ve summoned Libi that had time to herself.
“Which I’m sure can wait Twilight,” Rainbow Dash says, rolling her eyes, “Come on Twi, stop being an egg head and have some fun.”
Twilight sighs, it seems like she can’t avoid this, and it is true she has been avoiding her friends since the sleep over, since she nearly raped one of them. Anyway it is the lake, and it’s not like anything bad can happen.
“Fine, I’ll go,” Twilight mutters, giving in.
“Great, we’ll pick you up in a hour,” Rainbow Dash says, about to leave, “Better get your swimwear on.” With that she leaves.
Twilight then realizes something, does she even have a swimsuit? Of course she had one once, but after she became an alicorn she grew out of it. As she ponders this, she remembers that Cadence sent her a swimsuit after she became an alicorn… for some reason?
She heads to her room and looks through her dresser for an unopened box. She finds it and pulls it out, she’ve never opened it since she got it, cause she never needed a swimsuit yet. She pulls off the lid and finds a card, addressed to her.
‘Dear Twilight,
Pick up some nice stallions with this.
Love Cadance.’
Twilight got a horrible feeling in her guts as she pulled out the swimsuit, it’s a two piece.
“Damn it Cadence!” Twilight grumbles, blushing.
