Goddess Zecora: Mother of Chaos
Chapter 2: Setting Up the Pieces
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“Twilight Sparkle!!!” bellowed Princess Luna in her Royal Canterlot voice.
“What!?” said Twilight, pushing down her studying glasses.
“Have you had any progress in reversing the Zebra’s condition?” asked Luna.
Twilight scoffed “No, I have not. Just like the last three days.”
“Is there a reason for that?” asked Luna.
“You know darn well, what my problem is!” snipped Twilight “It’s that you won’t let me examine Zecora. I want to see how her new body works, so I can find out how to reverse its effects.” Explained Twilight.
“Absolutely not,” Said Luna “I don’t want anypony going near that thing. It’s to remain under guard until my sister returns.”
“And why is that!?” asked Twilight “Your guards are useless! The sheep are guarding the wolf! You know darn well that if Zecora wanted us dead, we’d all be dead!”
“We do not know what triggered her first destructive rampage,” Said Luna “I will not have you poking around and risk another outburst so close to my city.”
“Then move her out further! But don’t come to me to solve a problem, when you won’t even let me examine the problem.” Twilight Grumbled.
“You will mind your tone, Twilight Sparkle.” Said Luna sternly “Do not forget it is I who is princess, and not you.”
“At least until Celestia comes back.” Twilight Mumbled.
“My sister is not here, but the delegates of Equestria are.” Said Luna “There will be meeting in an hour, and they expect the Element Bearers to be there.”
“But we still haven’t found Rainbow Dash!” Twilight said.
“Then you will have to make due.” Said Luna “Good day, Twilight!” and she slammed the door.
Fluttershy walked down the streets of Canterlot nervously. She was pulling a cart with a gray tarp covering its contents.
Fluttershy looked back and forth, trying hard to check that she had not been followed.
“Miss, Shy!” said a deep stallion voice.
Fluttershy jumped. It was a grey guard, a batpony loyal to Princess Luna.
“Um, yes?” went the Fluttershy.
“Princess Luna has requested the presence of the element bearers at the summit today. It will be occurring in Canterlot castle in an hour.”
“Oh, um, ok. I’ll try to be there.” said Fluttershy.
“You will be there.” Said the guard “The Princess has decreed it. Do not be late.”
“Ok….” went Fluttershy meekly.
“As you were.” Said the guard.
Fluttershy breathed a sigh of relief and continued on her way. She quickly checked to make sure nopony had followed her and then ducked into an abandoned warehouse.
“Um, hello…” she said as she entered the cluttered storage area. “It’s me Fluttershy…”
There was no answer.
“You can come out…” she mumbled “I brought you food.” She pulled the tarp off the cart to reveal it was full of apples.
There was still no answer. “Well. I guess I’ll just leave…”
“BOO!” went a large creature jumping out from under a tarp.
Fluttershy shrieked as the creature charged her. Only for the creature to start giving her a gentle hug.
“Heh,” went the creature “gotcha Fluttershy.”
“Rainbow Dash!” went Fluttershy. “You scared the daylights out of me!”
Rainbow Dash was about 30 feet long and had several dragon-like features. Her broken wing had healed and had become an odd mix of scaly and feathery.
“Sorry, Fluttershy.” said Rainbow Dash “I couldn’t help it.”
“I see your wing is feeling better.” said Fluttershy.
“Yeah! Check out my new wings! Cool aren’t they!” said Rainbow Dash. She then started chowing down on the apples.
“I’m sure Twilight would think so.” said Fluttershy.
Rainbow Dash sighed. “We’ve been over this, Twilight can’t find out. She’s too close with the princesses.”
“She really wants to examine Zecora, but Luna won’t let her.” said Fluttershy. “If you let Twilight examine you, then she might be able to find a cure.”
“I know.” said Rainbow Dash. “But if Luna found out…”
“Luna is going find out eventually, especially if you keep growing!” said Fluttershy. “What if you get as big as Zecora?”
Dash sighed “Fine. You can tell Twilight about me. Just as long as she promises to stay quiet.”
“Yay!” said Fluttershy sincerely.
Rainbow Dash finished consuming the cart of apples.
“Anyway I have to go.” said Fluttershy “Princess Luna is having meeting to discuss what to do with Zec-“
All of the sudden, Rainbow Dash roared loudly and started flailing around! Fluttershy backed away. “Rainbow Dash what’s wrong?” asked Fluttershy.
Rainbow Dash started grabbing her crotch “It’s happening, oh god, it’s happening!!!” She cried.
“What is?” asked Fluttershy.
A massive bulge of meat came out from between Rainbow Dash’s legs, causing her to moan like she was having a massive orgasm.
“Ugh!!!” went Rainbow Dash as she thrashed around the warehouse. Her wet sticky shaft forced itself out of her crotch and stood at full erection. Her newly formed testicles vibrated in pure anticipation. “It feels sooo gooood!” moaned Rainbow Dash, as her magenta eyes formed into thin slits.
Rainbow Dash reached towards Fluttershy and grabbed her.
Fluttershy was horrified. “Rainbow Dash!? What are you doing!? Put me down!” she pleaded.
Dash reclined and set Fluttershy down on her stomach, Right in front of her massive boner, which was almost the same size as Fluttershy.
Rainbow Dash said only said two words. “Suck it!”
Fluttershy had a feeling her friend wasn’t actually in control anymore. “Rainbow Dash, I am your friend, don’t do this!” She begged.
“SUCK IT!” Rainbow Dash repeated.
Fluttershy gulped as she stared at the massive teal boner. It was still glistening with fluid, as it had just recently come into existence.
Fluttershy couldn’t imagine how she would manage to pleasure Rainbow Dash. She was afraid that Rainbow Dash might cum in her face, and turn her into a dragon too.
“NO!” Fluttershy yelled assertively.
Rainbow Dash was confused.
“Just because you’re big doesn’t mean you get to tell people smaller than you what to do!” Fluttershy lectured. “And you know this Rainbow Dash, so don’t try any of this on me, because I won’t have it!” And then she slapped Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow Dash rubbed her eyes, and the light returned to them. “Ugh!” she groaned. “What happened?”
“Rainbow Dash?” asked Fluttershy.
“Fluttershy?” went Rainbow Dash, as she rubbed her forehead. “Oh my goodness! Fluttershy! I am so sorry!”
Fluttershy breathed a sigh of relief. “It’s okay Rainbow Dash, you didn’t know what you were doing.”
“In a way I did.” said Rainbow Dash. “I knew I shouldn’t in the back of my mind, but it just thirst so badly I…”
“I’m just glad I was able to bring you out of it.” Said Fluttershy sincerely “Calming animals down is one of my talents.”
Rainbow Dash started poking her throbbing erection. “Ugh! I now see what Zecora was going through. Keep your distance from me Flutters. I don’t know what my body will try to do.”
Fluttershy hopped down from her friend. “That’s okay. I have to go to the meeting now. Don’t worry I’ll be sure to put in a good word for Zecora.”
“Thanks.” Said Rainbow Dash “Hopefully, I won’t get any bigger. I’m not sure how much of me this warehouse can hold.”
Fluttershy entered the Canterlot senate chamber. Fluttershy saw Twilight sitting at one of the seats, her nose buried deep in a book.
“Hi, Twilight…” mumbled Fluttershy, as she sat down next to her friend.
“Hi Fluttershy!” said Twilight optimistically. “Good news! I think I've discovered what caused Zecora to grow!”
“Oh, that’s good!” said Fluttershy.
“This is just a theory, since Luna won’t let me interview Zecora. But…” started Twilight.
Fluttershy listened intently.
“I believe her growth was triggered by a combination of several master-class potions that were combined into a massive spell matrix by the chaos energy of the ingredients of the potion. Normally Chaos magic is very weak, so I predict she must have used a large amount of Poison Joke Extract. I also predict she used other unstable ingredients, such as Hearts Desire. Normally, this would just cause a potion to fail. But the Concentrated Black Lotus Extract provided enough magical energy potential (or ‘mana’ for the laymares term) to fuel it regardless. Combine this with the natural affinity zebras have with potions and elixirs and it honestly all makes mostly logical sense!” Twilight droned.
“Um, yay?” said Fluttershy.
“I know right?” said Twilight. “I can’t wait to report my findings to the council. I’m sure I’ll be able to convince them not to execute Zecora.”
“Execute her!?” said Fluttershy.
“Yeah,” said Twilight “Luna and her cronies think that Zecora is a threat to all of Equestria, and should be eliminated. But I’m not gonna let that happen.”
Princess Luna entered the chamber, the Equestrian delegates stood up.
“That’s good, Twilight.” said Fluttershy “Our friends aren’t going to just let them kill Zecora.”
Um…” said Twilight.
The door opened again. Pinkie Pie and Applejack walked in and stood behind Princess Luna.
“Pinkie Pie and Applejack are with Luna!” said Fluttershy in shock.
“Eyup!” whispered Twilight.
Luna took the center podium and started using her Royal Canterlot Voice “CITIZENS OF EQUESTRIA! AS YOU KNOW WE ARE UNDER CRISIS. A FEW DAYS AGO OUR BELOVED EMPIRE WAS ATTACKED BY A CREATURE OF UNRIVALED POWER! SEVENTY-EIGHT EQUESTRIAN CITIZENS LOST THEIR LIVES IN THIS UNPROVOKED ATTACK! IT IS NOW UP TO US TO DECIDE WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WITH THE CREATURE THAT HAS VIOLATED THE PEACE AND SAFETY OF OUR GREAT NATION!!!” She bellowed.
“What are we even debating for?” said Senator Greenblood, the Manehatten delegate “I say we have her killed right now!” Several other delegates stood up to cheer or oppose him.
“You can’t just execute her!” shouted a Delegate from Whinnyapolis.
“That’s right!” said the delegate from Coltson City. “It goes against Equestrian law!”
The delegates broke into Chaos.
“SILENCE!!!” yelled Luna. One of her guards tapped the Princess, a subtle reminder to maintain her composure.
Luna took a sip of water and continued on more calmly. “It is true that Equestrian law prevents the execution of Equestrian citizens. But this, thing… is not an Equestrian citizen. It lived in our backwoods, secretly plotting against the citizens of our great nation.”
Twilight stood up. “That’s a lie!” she yelled.
“Is it?” asked Luna. “Might I ask, how do you know that?”
“I knew Zecora personally.” said Twilight “She was a good mare who would never plan to do something like this.”
“She was probably under some sort of effect from the potion.” mumbled Fluttershy so quietly the delegates could barely hear her. “It wasn’t her fault.”
“Interesting.” said Luna “Maybe we should hear some words from your friends. After all, they knew Zecora as well, correct?”
Applejack walked up to the podium. “Yup, I can say I knew Zecora back before she had er’ lil’ accident. But no, I don’t believe she did what she did in malevolence. I think Fluttershy is right.”
The crowd started murmuring.
“That bein’ said, she acted very irresponsibly.” Applejack continued “A lot good folks got hurt cuz of her bad decisions. Ah’ don’t wanna be on this jury to decide how bad she gets punished, but if there’s one thing I don’t want it’s her gettin’ special treatment jes’ cuz’ we’re her friends. I jes’ want justi-"
Out of the blue, Pinkie Pie flipped the table she was sitting at. “I WANT THAT THING DEAD!!!!” she shrieked hysterically.
Applejack just stood there, dumbfounded.
“Do you know how many of the ponies she killed were personal friends of mine!?” said Pinkie lividly.
“Uh? Four?” guessed Applejack.
“Thirty-six!” snapped Pinkie. “Including the Cakes! They were in Sugarcube Corner, when that disgusting creature destroyed it!! They were like family to me!!!” Pinkie Pie started panting and hyperventilating.
“I should have been there…” said Pinkie Pie “I was supposed to be on register duty… It was my job to watch the shop…but I had deliveries to do…the Cakes said they would watch the store for me…I lost everything… BECAUSE OF THAT FREAK!!!”
“Pinkie,” went Twilight “Zecora was your fr-“
“Shut up Twilight!!!” roared Pinkie Pie “You have no idea what I’m going through. To see your home and loved one’s destroyed in an instant, in front of your very eyes…”
Pinkie continued “If it were up to me…I would use the Elements of Harmony on this outsider, who preyed on the hospitality of ponies… and send it off to Tuataras where it belongs!!! I can only hope the counsel shares my decision.”
“Permission to speak, sir!” said Captain Spitfire.
“Granted.” said Princess Luna.
“With all due respect, even if this creature were to allow itself to be executed, what method would we use?” She queried. “Our most powerful rifles failed to harm it, and as far as we can tell it’s largely immune to magical energy. It would take a power like the Elements of Harmony, and the Element Bearers do not seem to be in agreement.”
“An’ one of us is missin’ too.” Said Applejack “None of us have seen Rainbow Dash since Zecora attacked. I hope she’s alright.”
“I suspect that she is hiding on order to protect Zecora!” said Pinkie Pie. “So we can’t use the Elements on her, even if Luna forced us. She’s probably listening in on us right now. Curse you Rainbow Dash, Curse you! Get out here, and do what needs to be done!!!”
“Pinkie! She might be dead!” said Applejack.
Pinkie turned towards Applejack with tears in her eyes “I know.” She sobbed. “I need some time alone.”
Pinkie exited the chamber.
“If the creature was willing to let us euthanize it, there is a way we could dispose of It.” said Senator Greenblood.
“How?” asked Spitfire. “It can regenerate almost anything instantly.”
“Mr. Greenblood has been researching disruptor rifles and has created a variant capable of destroying a large section of organic material.” Said Luna.
“Disruptors?!” went a Senator from Cloudsdale. “He’s building disruptors!”
“Yes, I am.” said Greenblood. “With disruptors, we will be able to inflict an amount of damage, faster than the creature can regenerate. It would be excruciatingly painful for the creature, but it’s on the table.”
“That’s a complete violation of the Energy Weapons Act!” went the senator from Dodge. “Not to mention excessively cruel.”
“That may be so,” said Luna “But this is a crisis, order must be maintained, and we must have a way of hurting this creature, just in case it goes rogue again. That’s why I have granted Senator Greenblood authority to create and oversee an elite team of soldiers to assist the Wonderbolts in guarding the creature. This team will be known as the First Order Containment Squad and will be separate from every other branch of the military!”
“You can’t do that!” went Cloudsdale’s senator. “It’s against the law!”
“It is merely a precaution, while we vote on whether or not this creature shall be executed.” said Luna.
Then the doors of the council chamber flew open. It was Princess Celestia.”There will be no execution!” said Celestia forcefully.
“Sister?” said Luna. “I thought you were negotiating with Griffonstone!”
“Griffonstone allowed me to delay the negotiations.” said Celestia “They know all too well what it’s like to have a blow struck at the heart of their kingdom.”
“Then you know we need to punish the one responsible for this crime!” said Luna.
“By all means she should be punished, her crime is most grievous.” Said Celestia “But you are not looking for justice, Luna. You are looking for vengeance.”
“This thing murdered Equestrian citizens on my watch!” said Luna. “It deserves death!”
“Do not let your ego get tied up in this, Luna. There was nothing you could have done to prevent it.” said Celestia, as she turned towards the council “Justice will be done, but Equestria will not give up its principles and values while we deal with this crisis.”
And then the council burst out into applause, with the exception of a few Senators, including Greenblood.
“Um. Twilight?” whispered Fluttershy.
“Yes?” went Twilight.
“When this meeting is over, can I show you something?” asked Fluttershy.
“Not now, Fluttershy. I need to work on my antidote for Zecora.” said Twilight.
“I know where Rainbow Dash is…” went Fluttershy.
“You do?” went Twilight. “Is she okay? Where is she? Why hasn’t she contacted the rest of us?”
“It’s complicated.” said Fluttershy. “Just meet me at the Buck Alley warehouses when the meeting gets out.”
“Will do.” said Twilight.
“You did a wonderful job convincing the ponies to vote against the execution.” said Fluttershy.
“Thanks,” said Twilight “But it wasn’t hard. Celestia's disapproval did most of the work.”
“I think research on the cure helped.” said Fluttershy.
“Well, cure is a strong word” said Twilight “It’s more of a mana drain, basicly it severly slows the effects of the enchantment. Would have been great if Zecora had told us, but at this point I think the potion has done its work.”
“But if somepony was in the process of turning into a dragon you could stop it, right?” asked Fluttershy.
“Yeah.” Said Twilight “I’d need lots of Mana Leech Extract though, why do you ask?”
Then suddenly there was a loud crashing noise from within the warehouse and a massive 200-ft tall Rainbow Dash burst through the structures roof. She had developed a massive pair of breasts and resembled an anthropomorphic 'super dragon' like Zecora.
Twilight's jaw hung in disbelief.
“Um, that's the reason.” said Fluttershy meekly.
“Ugh” went Rainbow Dash, rubbing her head. “Oh hey guys, what’s up?”
Then Twilight fainted.
