Back Into It
Chapter 2 - Reunion
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“No, this is impossible, you couldn't have gone through your metamorphosis” Chrys stated as she man handled Tony.
“Yea I did Chrys” he said. “why is that hard to believe?”
“Because… you are still human” She stated.
“And what usually happens?” Tony asked curiously.
“Well normally when a Changeling Queen takes on a mate, male or female, they go through a metamorphosis and become a Changeling Queen, the fact you're still male and human may be a problem” She said with a frown.
“And why is that?” he asked.
“Well the fact there is only Queens amongst the council” She said.
“Wait, council? “ he asked confused.
“Yea it's where Changeling hives sort things out diplomatically between each other” She said “ And I have to take you because you are my mate b… but if I do, i don't know what they will think about you” She said with a frown before burying her face into his neck as Nightmare rubbed her back.
“I'm sure they won't hate him Chrys or you” Moon said smiling softly.
“I'm not worried that they will hate us, I'm worried that they will try to take him, and it doesn't help when he produces such portent love” Chrys groaned.
“Well they can certainly try” Molly chuckled.
“Wait aren't Changeling Queens as strong as Alicorns?” Umbra asked.
“Yea they are” Celestia said.
“And how many are there Chrys?” Tony asked.
“Several hundred” Chrys said sighing.
“Hey Chrys cheer up, we have time to figure this out” Tony said moments before a flash of Green light filled the room before fading to reveal several Changeling Queens, Each with different coloured Manes. “why do i always jinx myself?” he asked with a groan.
“Mother?!” Chrys said looking at the mare with the blood red mane.
“Hello my little honey bug” the taller mare said smiling.
“Honey bug?” Tony chuckled before Chrys punched his shoulder.
“How did you get here so fast? Tony’s only been back for thirty minutes” She said wrapping her arms around his.
“Sweetie, i doubt there wasn't a Changeling Queen who didn't sense him arriving” the Mare said chuckling.
“Fuck” Tony said before he stood from the couch, still holding the Princess of love in his gasp. “Well before shit hits the fan, nice to meet you”He said with his free hand behind his back, which his herd and friend watched his gun form in his hand.
“Tony no” Chrys said standing and grabbing his armed hand. “Mother please don't do this, i… we just got him back to us” She said as the rest of his Herd stood up.
“What? So I can't come meet my new and only son? Seriously, I always wanted one” She said confusing the group.
“Wait what? You just wanted to… what?” Chrys said blinking rapidly as her brain stopped working.
“What happening?” Cadence asked as she yawned.
“Wait? You were asleep?” Tony asked as the pink mare nuzzled into his chest.
“I don't get much sleep at home due to Flurry, Saint and Julia” she groaned placing her head against Tony’s chest plate and falling asleep again.
“Who?” Tony asked.
“Our foals” Luna said as she laid down on the couch, “seeing as the drama is over, we shall....” She was saying before falling asleep.
“And where are our little ones right now?” Tony asked just as Nightmare flopped onto the couch on top of Luna and fell asleep much to the growls of the Princess of the night.
“They are with Amber, Mayli, Sweetheart and Cloud” Celestia said before walking up to Tony, which she stood up on her hind legs and leant on him before kissing him “I have to head back to Canterlot” She groaned before stealing another kiss from him and teleporting away.
“What about you Molly?” Tony said turning to see Molly asleep on Nightmare. “They do know that there is a bed upstairs?” he asked quietly.
“Hey Tony, i am going to check on the the Council and explain about you, you stay here and well you do something non destructive” Chrys said before teleporting away with her mother and sisters.
“Well… Umbra can you take Cadence while I have a shower?” he asked turning to face the black armoured mare.
“Of course” She said grabbing the pink mare only to discover that she was firmly attached to Tony’s armour.
“Wait just let me” He said as he detached his chest plate resulting in Cadence squeezing the body armour so tightly, she crushed it. “Shit” he said with a gulp before watching Cadence suddenly latch onto Umbra causing her to stumble backwards, tripping over the couch and flipping it resulting a series of annoyed groans from the five mares.
With a chuckle, Tony climbed the stairs of his home and entered his room to discover dozens of photos of his girls on the cabinets and dressers which causing him to feel like a knife was plunged into his heart as he could see the sadness in the expressions in the photos. Tony had another look around the room before going to a wardrobe and retrieving some of his clothes, not surprisingly, they smelt like his herd more than him. After a long tedious search, Tony managed to find a top that didn't appear to have been worn by someone too big for it, he grabbed a pair of pants and entered the bathroom and turned on the shower but as he removed his armour and clothes, he discovered that there was a weird slime on his skin and now in his gear. “Fuck” he grumbled before dumping it on the floor before stepping into the hot shower and began to scrub the stubborn goo off his form.
(Downstairs)
“This is not Bucking working…. Get the Buck off me!!” Luna shouted shoving Moon off her before climbing to her hooves.
“Hey, not my fault that you’re a great pillow” Moon laughed only for Luna to growl as the front door unlocked and Luna was suddenly tackled by two foals. “See even Flurry and Nova agree” She laughed before dodging a flower pot, which connected with Smitty’s face just as he entered the door.
“Really lass?” he asked as he rubbed his face.
“Sorry Smitty, that was aimed at Moon” Luna said sheepishly as the Earthen sat in a arm chair. “So how did it go looking after Supernova and Flurry Heart?” Luna asked as the two white foals sat on her back.
“Good but why did ya ask me to look after those two fillies while the rest were with Mayli and Amber?” Smitty asked stroking his beard.
“They like getting dirty and they are the only white ones” Molly said.
“Ah” Smitty said moments before three Elves entered, the first was nearly fully armoured whom was known as Lucy, followed by her was another in a long dress, known as Eliza and lastly was the leather clad hunteress, Amanda.
“So that's what happened with the Dark elf ranger, Bastard didn't stop hitting on me until I threatened to use him as monster bait” Amanda sighed before stopping when she saw the overturned couch. “Did we miss something fun?” Amanda asked.
“No, oh and you'll never guess, Tony is alive and he is back!” Moon said smiling.
“Don’t fuck with me like that Moon” Lucy said with a frown.
“She is telling the truth” Molly said.
“Okay then, where is he?” Eliza asked with crossed arms.
“Upstairs… and can somepony help?” Umbra said as Cadance was wrapped around her chest.
“I'll help ya Lass” Smitty said walking over and grabbed Cadence’s sides only to have himself blasted across the room and out a window. “ah’m okay” He said as Cadance yawned.
“I'm trying to sleep” She groaned as she nuzzled into Umbra while the blue glow around her horn diminished.
“What the heck was that loud explosion?” a Tony’s voice asked as he appeared in the entrance of kitchen with a bottle of cider in his hand. “Why is the window missing?” he asked looking at the shattered window before looking at the three Elves on the other side of the room with their jaws hanging open in shock. “What?” he asked doing a quick one eighty. “What?”.
“You Bastard! I'm gonna fucking kill you for what you put us through” Lucy said drawing her sword.
“Oh shit” Tony said before running through the kitchen and out the back door with the warrior hot on his heels.
“Well that was a short lived reunion” Smitty said as he re-entered the front door.
(Sanctuary Market)
“Today is such a nice day to go to the market” Princess Sweetheart said to the goals with her and her herd mates as they walked through the marketplace.
“Sweet, tell me again why we are here instead of at the house relaxing?” Amber asked as she held a small purple Dragon in her arms.
“Because I thought it would be good to get some lunch… outside the house” Sweet said as the Dragon groaned.
“Hey food sounds nice” Mayli said as she held the hands of a small blue filly and and red colt.
“And it keeps our mind off what's happening with the rest of our herd” Cloud said with a slight frown.
“what's happening?” asked the tan Pegasus filly in her arms.
“nothing sweetie” Cloud said nuzzling the filly.
“Let's just get to the... “Amber was saying before she was interrupted by screaming.
“FFFFUUUCCCCKKKK!!” screamed a man as he ran down the street with Lucy in hot pursuit with her Sword drawn.
“Get back here and face your punishment!” she shouted moments before the rest of the herd flew after her along with Smitty, who stopped in front of the small group panting.
“Damn…. Damn my short legs” he panted.
“Are you okay Smitty?” Cloud asked “Wait where is Nova and Flurry?” She asked.
“Damn it” he said running back the way he came.
(Twenty minutes later, several miles away)
“I think I got away” Tony panted as he looked around the forest that he managed to run into, he wasn't too happy about being chased through town by Lucy but he was not keen on becoming a kebab, it was expected that some of the girls would be angry at him but he wasn't expecting that. “I've got to go back soon anyway” he grumbled but before he could head back, he was tackled to the ground before having his pelvis strangled. When he looked to see the culprit, he had a mini heart attack when he saw it was Lucy with her Broadsword, but what caught Tony by surprise was when she drove the blade into the dirt by his head and began crying. “Lucy?” he asked softly as she slammed her fist onto his chest.
“you’re a bastard” she whimpered before grabbing his shirt and burying her face into him while calling him every name under the sun and exclaiming how much she hated him for doing this to her, Tony simple wrapped his arms around the warrior as she released her built up emotion on him. After a good half an hour, her verbal assault stopped and only the sound of her light sniffling could be heard.
“I'm sorry I broke my promise” He said as she punched his chest again before he sat up with her resulting in her holding his shirt tighter. “Come on, let's get home so you can get some rest” he said which he received a nod from her before he placed one hand on her ass and the other on the ground before standing up. Once up, the hand on her ass readjusted itself so he had a better grip as his free hand grabbed her sword and he began walking back to Sanctuary while carrying the distort elf, luckily he didn't have to go far before he encountered Molly, Moon, Luna, Cadence, Umbra, Amanda and Eliza.
“So I see you are alive and kicking then” Amanda said crossing her arms with an annoyed look on her face.
“Yea but can we head home before we start this please?” he asked which he received several nods before the magic users teleported the group home. Once home, they discovered Smitty being chased by Nova and Flurry except the moment the two fillies noticed Cadence and Luna, the immediately swapped targets and tackled the two mares.
“So tell me Tony, how did you survive?” Eliza asked as Tony sat on the now righted couch with Lucy on his lap.
“Short version, i fought Daine, shoved a grenade down his throat, Baixao arrived, he banished the Covenant and promised leave this universe forever, unfortunately this meant that I would be removed but not banished from Equis. So then when i was teleported to the Plague Doctor, i was heavily wounded so I got into a Cryo pod so I could survive until rescue arrived, little did i know that due to my Changeling part, i begs my metamorphosis because my body got into a state as if it had been cacooned i think and then five years later i wake up to the ship under attack which then due to reasons i still dont understand, i am returned to Equis only to encounter three Alicorns attack Canterlot so I killed one and know I'm here” he explained resulting in the three Elves looking at him with blank expressions.
“Right” Amanda stated as her brain stopped working as she processed this new information.
“Oh and I can use magic now” Tony added, gain Eliza’s attention.
“Can i teach you how to use magic?” She asked as she moved forward and hugged him tightly. “Please”
“Sure Eliza” He said with a smile before Cadence walked over, holding a small white Alicorn fill in her grasp.
“Tony, this is Flurry heart, Flurry, this is your daddy” Cadence said moments before the filly broke free of her mother's grip and zoomed forward before latching onto Tony’s face like some sort of Alien parasite.
“Well that was not expected” Luna said as she watched the other filly put two and two together before fly in over and latching onto Tony also.
“So So this Saint?” Tony asked pulling both Fillies free of him.
“No that is Super Nova… my foal” Luna said smiling.
“Wait… I got you pregnant also?” he asked shocked.
“Actually you got several of your herd pregnant like for instance, Cadence, Amber, Luna and Cloud” Nightmare explained.
“Yes… Tia wasn't the happiest of mares… oh that reminds me, she still has that fertility potion she got from the Zebra Queen in her room” Molly said before turning to Tony just as Celestia Appeared, Grabbed him in her magic and teleported away.
“Should we help him?” Asked Amanda.
“No, Celestia always wanted to be a mother and this is her chance.” Luna said smirking.
