Twilight had round up all her friends at the Train Station. It was The Elements of Harmony, well 5 of them, Spike, The Cutie Mark Crusaders, including Babs, plus Derpy and Dinky. Soon they were gonna embark to the Crystal Empire.

"So when's this train coming?" Applejack asked, keeping a lookout.

"Soon Applejack, be patient, besides we gotta wait for Rainbow Dash and the others", Twilight said.

"Are they seriously coming?" Applejack asked hopefully.

"They should be, Derpy you got the letter to Cloudsdale right?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, I did", Derpy said with her usual perkiness.

"Well hopefully soon...wait there they are!" Twilight said, suddenly full of excitement.

She pointed to the oncoming Rainbow Dash, Thunderlane, Rumble, Flitter and Cloudchaser, they were flying in to the location.

"Ok here they come, remember try not to do anything that might make them freak or make them uncomfortable. Let's just give them a nice normal welcome", Twilight instructed.

Rainbow Dash and the Pegasi arrived at the train stop. Despite past feelings, Rainbow Dash was happy to see her friends after so long. After landing she was the first to greet her friends.

"Hey everypony, it's been a long-"

"Get them!" Pinkie shouted.

The group ran in charging to the Pegasi, which freaked all 5 of them out as they shouted, "Sweet Celestia!" Other than Spike and Dinky, the rest of the group ran in and hugged them all tight.

Twilight was hugging Thunderlane, Fluttershy was hugging Flitter, Applejack and Rarity were hugging Cloudchaser, Pinkie Pie and Derpy were hugging Rainbow Dash, and the crusaders were hugging Rumble.

The problem was each pony sans Fluttershy was hugging too tight, which made it uncomfortable for the pony being hugged.

"Um Twilight...great to see you too, but can you please...ease off?" Thuderlane said, feeling some discomfort at how hard Twilight was hugging him.

"Yeah same to you Pinkie...and you Derpy", Rainbow said, rather annoyed.

"Applejack...you're crushing me, so are you Rarity", Cloudchaser said just barely.

"Girls...I missed you too, but this is a little...much", Rumble said, very nervously.

Flitter had no complaints, she simply hugged Fluttershy back, "I missed you a lot Fluttershy."

"Me too, I'm glad I can see you again," Fluttershy said and nuzzled Flitter slightly.

Everypony broke their hugs, giving the Pegasi a little air.

"So what's this about a vacation Twilight?" Rainbow asked.

"Well I figured the best way for us to rekindle the old bond we used to have is by spending a week at The Crystal Empire. The place built by love, it's the perfect spot to put aside old grudges and make our friendship stronger", Twilight said.

"Sounds kinda dorky", Cloudchaser said.

"Come on Cloudchaser, surely you want to put aside all issues, I'm sure you have some remorse for doing the stuff you did", Twilight said.

"The only thing I regret is possibly upsetting my good friend Applejack. Everything else I stand by, I have principals after all," Cloudchaser argued.

Thunderlane glared a bit and whispered, "Cool it will ya?"

Twilight also glared a moment but decided to move on, "Anyway, I'm sure the others would love to put some differences aside, I know Flitter must miss Fluttershy, Rainbow misses us, and The Crusaders miss Rumble"

"And I bet Rumble misses Sweetie Belle most of all", Spike joked.

"Yeah, you're just jealous because I did with Sweetie Belle in a short time what you couldn't do with a certain somepony in years", Rumble said with an attitude.

Spike grinned, "Yeah and how did that turn out for you?"

Rumble started to get unhappy, "You're not funny Spike!"

"Boys! Remember, vacation, love, no fighting", Twilight said.

They both pouted a bit, and just in time, the train came.

"There's the train, everypony on board," Twilight instructed.

They each boarded one-by-one, though Derpy approached Rumble a moment, "Hey Rumble, can I talk to you about something?"

Rumble looked over. "Sure, what is it?"

Much to his surprise, the usually perky and sweet Derpy formed a very angry face as she got close to his own, no longer wall-eyed, showing that she's very serious about what she has to say, "If you even THINK about doing to Dinky what you did to Sweetie Belle, I won't be as nice as Rarity was, understand young stallion!?"

Rumble gulped, "Yes ma'am"

Derpy resumed her happy face and usual eyes, "Good, let's board the train."

She went to find her seat, Rumble looked taken back, "Wow, I thought she was really nice...eh, I've seen scarier though." Rumble grinned a bit, "Kinda like it by now, the sexiest mares are the ones that can kick butt after all. Speaking of which, Derpy herself has a pretty cute butt." Rumble shook his head, "What did I just say? Man I gotta keep my instincts in check."

They each sat in certain groups; Applejack, Rarity and Cloudchaser made one group, Fluttershy, Flitter and Derpy made another, Twilight, Spike, Thunderlane, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie made another group and Rumble sat with The Crusaders and Dinky.

The groups simply played catch up, Derpy and Flitter compared their foal-sitting skills for Dinky and Rumble respectively, Fluttershy explained more on Discord teaching Diamond Tiara a lesson. Apparently he's really starting to mess with her a lot, nothing too extreme though, just taunting for the most part.

Twilight, as Thunderlane expected, was very apologetic for what she said. Thunderlane brushed it off, telling her not to worry that he doesn't hate her, though Rainbow Dash was getting slightly jealous of how much Twilight's talking with Thunderlane, also not appreciating the hugs she's been giving him. But she also knows that Twilight is just very affectionate sometimes, it's just how she is.

The Crusaders also talked, well mostly flirted with Rumble, asking him who he missed the most, to which Rumble simply replied, "Whichever one missed ME the most." That caused a bickering among them, with the exception of Dinky who found this humorous.

Soon enough they arrived at The Crystal Empire, where Cadance and Shining Armor greeted them at the Station.

"Twiley!" Shining said holding his forelegs out for a hug.

"BBBFF!" she rushed to him and gave him the hug he offered.

Thunderlane nudged Rainbow to get her attention, much to her annoyance.

"Seriously! You're gonna start that again!?" Rainbow asked, not forgetting the first time he did that in Canterlot.

"Sorry, my bad, but what does BBBFF mean again?" Thunderlane asked.

"Big Brother Best Friend Forever," Rainbow explained.

"Oh, ok then," Thunderlane said. He would consider it geeky and dorky, but he has a similar relationship with his little brother, so he can't say much.

Twilight then hugged her sister-in-law Cadance, "Great to see you again Cadance."

"Same to you Twilight, and hello everypony," Cadance said.

The others greeted Cadance and Shining Armor.

Cadance noticed Thunderlane and his family, "I don't think we were properly introduced, I'm Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, but you can call me Cadance."

"Cadance? Just Cadance or should we address you as a Princess?" Thunderlane asked.

"You can just call me Cadance, if you're a friend of Twilight I don't mind you dropping the formalities, not that I mind that much anyway," Cadance admitted.

"Ok then Cadance, I'm Thunderlane, this is my little brother Rumble, these are his foalsitters and my best friends, Flitter and Cloudchaser"

"I think I remember you from the Equestria Games, and I know that one was also on your team", Cadance said, referring to Derpy.

"Sure was", Derpy said with a smile.

"And who is that filly next to you?" Cadance aksed.

"That's Dinky, I foalsit her, quite a lot I should say," Derpy said as she hugged Dinky.

"A fellow foasitter, just like the twins", Cadance approached the twins, "It's nice to meet you"

Cloudchaser raised her eyebrow, "Fellow? You foalsit too?"

"I used to foalsit Twilight when she was a filly", Cadance said.

"Really? Cool, you got any embarrassing pictures of her?" Cloudchaser asked, somewhat serious.

Before Twilight said anything, Thunderlane spoke up, "Cloudchaser, be cool will ya? Remember this vacation was Twilight's idea, be a little grateful to her please."

"Relax Thunder, I was just joking", Cloudchaser said, then muttered. "Somewhat."

Twilight approached him "Thank you Thunderlane", she turned to Cadance, "He's a really great guy, his brother picked up on that too, Rumble's so sweet after all."

"I take full credit for that", Flitter said, much to Thunderlane's annoyance.

Cadance turned to Rumble, "You're such a cute colt."

Rumble blushed a bit, "Thanks Miss Cadance, it's nice to see you as well."

Cadance chuckled and ruffled his mane, "Wow, polite too, especially for a teenager. Though he's still cute like a young colt is, I can tell he's gonna be a very cute stallion in a couple of years," She lowered down to him. "Just remember to be honest about how you feel, and not be all tough and keep it to yourself like some stallions". At that point, Cadance glared at Shining Armor.

"Come on Cadance, not in front of my sister and her friends" Shining pleaded.

"Well I should get you to the inn, it's mostly empty so you'll have some room, though other ponies will be coming today", Cadance said.

"Fine by us", Twilight said, they all started walking towards the inn.

As they walked, several of the Crystal Ponies stopped and waved, a few even cheered and threw roses.

"Wow, they must really like you girls", Thunderlane said.

"It's not for us, it's for Spike", Twilight said a little annoyed.

Thunderlane burst out laughing, then he saw the other ponies weren't laughing, then got curious, "Wait for real!?"

Twilight nodded, "Yeah, Spike's a big hero here since he helped stop King Sombra"

"I find that hard to believe", Rumble said.

"You're just jealous because while I can say I defeated an evil King, all you can say is that you got chased, beaten, stuck to some arrogant pony and had random sex", Spike gloated.

Rumble gritted his teeth, "One day Spike..."

Cadance looked to Twilight, "I know about the chasing but when was he beaten? What arrogant pony? And Sex? He's already in his mating years?"

"Long story, I'll explain later, but it plays into the rifts we had, that's why we needed this vacation", Twilight said.

"I see, well we're almost there," Cadance said.

On the way, Twilight turned to Rarity, "By the way Rarity, I also invited Coco Pommel to come, I know you're both still working on some designs, I figured you can do that together, plus she looks like she could use a relaxing time too."

"That's quite nice of you dear, I'd love to spend time with her", Rarity said.

Soon they arrived at the inn and Cadance got everyone checked in, even helping in putting the names on the list.

"Oh my, this list grew...Wow Octavia's coming, she's a great Cellist", Cadance said.

Twilight smiled at hearing that, "Oh that sounds great, I'm sure-"

"Oh wow! Vinyl Scratch is coming too! She's a great DJ!" Cadance said.

"You like DJ music? You're a cool princess", Cloudchaser said.

Twilight looked around, "Wow, great looking place, and it's just the front lobby."

"And I suddenly feel very...happy here, it's almost like magic", Rarity said, a wave off love rushing through her.

"Yeah I feel it too", Cloudchaser said, also feeling more affectionate than usual. "I kinda like it."

"I'm really feeling something", Rainbow Dash said, with a grin to Thunderlane.

"She's really feeling it!" Pinkie said with a slight accent, getting a few confused glares. Pinkie sighed at that, "Guess it's not Shulk time."

The ponies just ignored her and continued to look around. Thunderlane noticed Rainbow Dash still staring affectionately at him, her eyes telling the story. She wants him, and she wants him now.

"Dashie, there's ponies watching, keep your hormones in check for a moment", Thunderlane said in a hushed tone.

"Fine, I'll do that...for now," Rainbow said with a wink.

Cadance checked the list, "Looks like one of the guests have already arrived."

"Who arrived?" Twilight asked.

Suddenly the door to the main hallway slammed open, "I knew it!"

Everypony turned to see...

"Cheese!" Pinkie shouted.

"Pinkie!" Cheese Sandwich shouted.

The two rushed at each other, ready for some hugging, and then...their heads collided, knocking them both out.

All the ponies stared a moment, unsure what to make of what they just saw. Then Rainbow suddenly burst out laughing, Spike following soon after, then Babs and Scootaloo.

"Well that happened", Twilight said.

The front door opened and two ponies stepped inside.

"Twilight Sparkle!?"

Twilight recognized the voice and turned around, "Trixie!?"

Rumble turned around and noticed the other pony there, "Lightning Dust!"

The duo grinned at the group.

"Looks like this vacation just got much more interesting", Trixie said.

"Yeah totally, this is gonna be fun," Lightning said.

As the duo approached the group, Rumble ran to Lightning Dust and hugged her, "I missed you so much, how are your wings?"

"A lot better", Lightning flapped her wings, "Like the doctor said, nothing permanent, I can fly like my old self", she levitated off the ground, "I'm back baby!"

Rainbow approached her, "Well glad that wasn't permanent, so we're cool right?"

Lightning landed, "Eh, why not, just don't pick another fight with me"

Rainbow looked annoyed, "Um, you technically started the fight"

Lightning shook her head, "No I'm pretty sure that you did"

"What are you talking about? You're the one who-"

"You both started it! There, happy? You're even!" Twilight shouted.

Lightning looked annoyed, "I still don't see how I-"

"Lightning, that's enough!" Trixie shouted. "You promised me you wouldn't cause any more trouble, just deal with it and move on!"

Lightning sighed, "Ok Trixie." Lightning looked to Rumble, "So how have things been for you?"

"Complicated"

Lightning raised her eyebrow, "Complicated how?"

Rumble sighed. "Long story, I'll tell you later"

"Gonna tell them you lost your virginity?" Spike asked.

Rumble turned to Spike, face red as a tomato, "What the hell Spike!?"

Lightning's eyes widen, "Holy shit! You had sex? You're telling me everything right now! Trixie get our room key!"

Trixie grabbed the key, then Lightning grabbed her and Rumble and they left to find their room.

"So far things are getting weird", Twilight said.

The next pony entered, "Applejack? What are you doing here?"

Applejack noticed the pony, "Braeburn? What brings you to the Crystal Empire?"

"I'm trying to get some Appleossa representation for a rodeo they're hosting here, now answer mah question, what brings y'all here?"

"A lot of annoying things have happened, we're getting away from it all for a week," Applejack said.

Braeburn noticed Apple Bloom and Babs, "Hey it's two of mah little cousins, any other apples here?"

"No, just us, Twilight offered to bring Big Macintosh but he said 'nope'," Applejack said.

"Shame, glad to see your friends, though there's a few unfamiliar faces here, like that fella with the weird hairdo", Braeburn said, referring to Thunderlane.

"My hairdo isn't weird...is it?" Thunderlane turned to his friends. "You all like it right?"

"Your hairdo is fine Thunder, quit bugging out", Rainbow said.

"Yeah, I think it's a great hairdo, it makes you look handsome", Twilight said.

Rainbow Dash looked suspiciously at Twilight, then back to Thunderlane. "What she said, you look fine Thunderlane, I do like your mane."

Applejack got their attention. "Anyway Braeburn, this is Thunderlane, Rainbow Dash' coltfriend, there's his friends Flitter and Cloudchaser. His brother Rumble was here a minute ago but he left with some other friends. Plus there's Derpy and Dinky"

Braeburn approached them, "Well howdy there"

The others waved, though Cloudchaser stared at him.

"Um, something wrong ma'am?" Braeburn asked.

"Damn you're so sexy", she said with a grin, much to Braeburn's awkwardness, and everyone staring at her, especially Flitter, Thunderlane, Rainbow Dash and Applejack.

"Uh, thanks?" Braeburn said.

"I've seen your picture at Sweet Apple Acres, you're much more attractive up close", she gave him sexy eyes.

Braeburn awkwardly chuckled, "I'm just gonna go and grab mah room key, see you later...um what was-"

"Cloudchaser"

"Right, Cloudchaser...see ya", he grabbed his key and left.

Cloudchaser turned to Applejack, "I want your cousin, he's really attractive. I mean damn he's so sexy, oh Good Celestia I want him so badly!" Cloudchaser said, really feeling emotions.

Applejack looked a bit nervous, "Right...have fun with that", she felt awkward about all this and slowly backed away.

Another pony arrived, "Oh wow, didn't expect all of you to be here"

They all looked, Fluttershy and Flitter squealed in happiness.

"It's Soarin!" Fluttershy said.

"He's here!" Flitter said.

"Hi girls, hi everyone else", Soarin noticed Rainbow Dash, "Sup Rainbow, great to see ya"

"Same here, what brings you here?"

"I need a break, Wonderbolts practice is a pain in the flank, Spitfire's really rough," Soarin said.

Spike chuckled, "Rough"

Twilight glared at Spike for his comment. "Grow up."

"So, you all on vacation?" Soarin asked.

"Yeah, we are, nice friendly vacation", Twilight said.

"Cool...well I'm gonna go check in, hey Rainbow maybe we could chat later, see if we can finally get you in The Wonderbolts, I know you have the potential to do so"

"That's be so awesome!" Rainbow said.

Thunderlane glared a bit, "Right, awesome"

Soarin left to find his room, the others then looked for their room keys.

"You each have your own room, though I took the liberty of giving Thunderlane and Rainbow Dash their own room together, and the foals will share a room", Cadance said.

The others blushed at hearing that, Twilight approached Cadance, "Probably not the best idea, since he slept with one of those girls", Twilight said.

"Oh right, the sex Spike mentioned, wait which one?" Cadance asked.

"Rarity's sister, Sweetie Belle", Twilight said, pointing to Sweetie Belle.

"And I enjoyed it too", Sweetie outright said.

Twilight glared a moment then turned to Cadance, "Any chance you can get him another room?"

"I suppose I can have him bunk with one of his foalsitters", Cadance said.

"Good, run that by the clerk, everything else is fine"

As Cadance left, Rarity approached the door, "If you don't mind, I'm gonna go wait for Coco at the train"

Applejack approached her, "Mind if ah join you?"

Rarity looked hesitant, but decided to allow it, "Ok, let's go"

They both walked together to the station, Cloudchaser grinned, "Those two are finally gonna hit it off"

Meanwhile in Trixie and Lightning's room, Rumble had explained what happened, "So simple as that, she came on to me, and I went into her."

"Awesome job little guy, so proud of you", Lightning Dust ruffled his hair. "Man, you're really growing up, and getting a mare so young, you're one of the lucky ones."

"Trixie still can't believe you had sex with Sweetie Belle, you seem too innocent, then again if Sweetie Belle is anything like her sister then she's probably quite seductive," Trixie said.

"I may be usually well mannered Trixie, but I'm still a colt with urges. Ever since I became a teenager I felt different around mares", Rumble said.

Lightning chuckled, "That's normal, right now you're looking for a mate, so it's natural instincts. Mares also want a mate, that's why around the age those girls are at, they get their heat cycles. You're still awesome kid, so how'd the other girls take it?"

"Scootaloo got mad, but the others weren't too mad, now they want their shot at me, and Sweetie wants a second round. I gotta admit, I'm kinda worried about that," Rumble said.

"Didn't your brother teach you?" Lightning asked. "You should have been taught this stuff a while ago."

Rumble shook his head, "No, he's not good with that type of talk, I'm better off figuring it out myself."

"Bad move, you try this on your own you're gonna mess up, what about your foal sitters?" Lightning said.

"Flitter can't accept that I'm not a little colt anymore and Cloudchaser herself is too awkward. Rainbow Dash wanted to show me but Thunderlane told her not too, he feels she's too...hormonal to do so," Rumble said.

Lightning rubbed her chin, "Perhaps I can help you then kid."

Rumble looked curious, "Help me how?"

Lightning turned to Trixie, eyes slightly glowing briefly, "Lay back"

Trixie blushed, "Here? Now? In front of Rumble? Are you sure that-"

Lightning cut her off with a kiss, Trixie looked relaxed as Lightning laid Trixie down, "Shut up and stay down"

Trixie nodded as Lightning went back to Rumble.

"I remember telling you that you can watch how I pleasure Trixie, I'm gonna fulfil that promise. Now normally sex requires a stallion's...rod, and a mare's...entrance, but in cases of gay relationships, you find other ways. For me and Trixie, I can pleasure her with oral sex"

"Oral sex?"

"Watch", Lightning turned to Trixie and spread her legs, exposing her, causing Rumble to blush.

"Should I be seeing that? I think it's bothering Trixie"

"Actually, Trixie feels strangely aroused, not just from Lightning, just from being here", Trixie's eyes briefly glowed a bit as well.

"If you're ok with it", Rumble said.

"Yeah, she's fine, anyway to please her, you gotta go in face first, did you try this with Sweetie Belle?"

Rumble shook his head, "No, just the normal stuff."

"You have to know these tricks by now too, when you pick a mate you're gonna need to know everything, otherwise it's gonna be harder for you," LIghtning said.

Rumble looked closer, "So I just...taste it?"

Lightning nodded, "Yeah, but there's more to it than simple licking"

"Really? What else do I do?" Rumble asked.

"You gotta get deep in there and get their sweet spot," Lightning said, spreading Trixie's legs more to show more of her flower. Rumble looked in awe, he felt his instincts taking over, he so wanted to mate with Trixie right now.

Trixie nodded, "Finding that spot will give your mate much needed pleasure, if you can learn this, those fillies will be all yours..."

Rumble went back to Lightning, who continued to explain, "It takes a while to find the sweet spot, but you'll know once you find it."

Rumble nodded, "Alright, is it really that simple though? That's how you get a filly to like you?"

Lightning nodded, "Somewhat, basically this is all you need to do to pleasure a girl orally at least, as for actual sex, you seem to be ok with that. Just remember there's more than one spot on their body you can get into, and show your dominance, it can be fun too, especially since 3 of them beat you up once, now you get to show them a form of primal dominance. You have them at your mercy, only you can give them happiness, and don't be afraid to withdraw a moment, a good tease is a great way to show who's in charge."

Trixie spoke up, "But also listen to their needs, a good lover cares for the needs of the one they're pleasure, despite Lightning's teases and show of dominance, she knows that I like and what makes me happy, and as her partner, I know what makes her happy."

Lightning smiled at Trixie, "Trixie's right, the best part about this is having a mate to love and protect, this is a way of proving how much they care for each other, like I love and care for Trixie."

Trixie blushed, "You're the best my love."

Rumble looked down at Trixie, especially her flower, "I don't know why, but it looks so beautiful, such a delicate part of a filly."

"It is Rumble...I can tell you want it though," Lightning said with a grin.

Rumble blushed, "I don't know, she is your marefriend after all."

"Some ponies have herds so they have more than one mate, but maybe it's not a good idea for you right now. You're still new to this and you're not fully mature, being with an older mare requires more experience. Stick to your age for now before moving up. Otherwise I'd teach you myself, very intimately," Lightning said.

Rumble blushed, "Wow really? That sounds...fun."

Lightning crossed her forelegs, "Tell you what, if you get more experience, I'll give you some big time practice. Sometimes the best thing is to be with an older mare, we know more. You're new so it's more intense, but if you have experience, it'll be easier and you could keep up."

Rumble nodded, "Alright, thanks for teaching me, I look forward to learning more from you."

Lightning grinned, "I'm sure you do, now let me show you a little something."

Lightning went to Trixie, much to her surprise she had started to demonstrate what she had been teaching Rumble. Lightning did promise Rumble she would educate him, and since he's maturing and nearing the age of full stallion-hood, now's a good time as any. Rumble could only watch as Lightning please Trixie, and he wished so much he could swap places with Lightning Dust.

Rumble could only watch Trixie, her face constantly changing, showing different signs of bliss. Rumble started to feel a bit excited, to the point where he had to stand in a way to hide his 'excitement'. Trixie noticed though and offered a grin, "Wow, you really are growing older."

Lightning looked over a moment, not stopping what she's doing. She noticed that Rumble is indeed pretty lucky, and he's still a couple years away from full maturity. After a while Trixie reached her limit, letting out a big scream and getting Lightning's face wet.

Lightning wiped it off, "Simple as that Rumble, find a filly your age and practice that."

They then heard Twilight call from outside, "Rumble? Where are you? Rainbow Dash is looking for you, one of The Wonderbolts are here!"

Lightning's ears perked up, "A Wonderbolt!?" she turned to Rumble, "Let's go kid, before Rainbow steals our thunder!"

Before she left, Trixie called, "Wait, I'm still in the mood"

Lightning considered saying nevermind but when she saw Twilight get closer, then had an idea. It's something she normally wouldn't consider but something about this place made her wanna do so. She turned her attention to Trixie, "Hey, wanna fufil your old fantasy?"

Trixie raised her eyebrow, "What fantasy?"

"If I get Twilight in here, you want to be with her like you've always wanted to?"

Trixie blushed, "You'd let me? That's nice but you don't have to do that"

"I just need to speak with Soarin a moment, I know she's your old desire. Besides I can join you a bit later if you'd like, kinda like the idea of a 3 way", Lightning said.

Trixie blushed, "Wow, that's kinky, and I like it"

"Hey this place has me feeling kiny, hell I could grab Soarin, Thunderlane and Rainbow Dash and bring them here and have one big sex party!"

Rumble looked a bit weirded out, "I'm gonna go", he then quickly left the room.

"Wait for me", Lightning followed, both running into Twilight.

"Hey Rumble, Soarin's here, I'm sure you'd like to see him, you too Lightning Dust," Twilight said.

"Thanks Twilight...by the way, Trixie is in our room waiting to see you, we have an offer for you, in case you want to satisfy a curiosity", Lightning raised her eyebrows to Twilight.

Twilight looked curious, "Ok, I'll head in there, Soarin's around the back of the inn, he's talking with Rainbow Dash and Thunderlane", she then walked to Trixie's room.

"Awesome, let's go kid, I'll teach you more techniques later", Lightning said and left with Rumble.

Twilight entered the room and saw Trixie on the bed, she was still somewhat sweating from her prior engagement with Lightning Dust.

"Trixie? What happened, you look like you went through quite an experience"

"Oh it was Twilight, a great one too...would you like to join me for another experience? Lightning said she doesn't mind, as long as she can join in later," Trixie said seductively.

Twilight wanted to say no but her body started moving almost like if it were involuntary, her eager eyes starting to glow a bit briefly. "That sounds like fun." She joined Trixie on the bed, stroking her mane, "I don't know why, but for some reason, I want to take your offer...You know, I never noticed how pretty you are."

Trixie blushed at the compliment, "So are you"

Twilight leaned in and then after a few moments, she and Trixie started kissing, one with passion and desire.

Trixie broke the kiss, "It's my wish for you to lead, but do you know how?"

"I'll figure it out", Twilight said as he positioned Trixie's legs so their entrances touched, and Twilight went to work on Trixie.

Trixie moaned in delight, turns out Twilight did have an idea of what to do, a very good one, "Wow, that's great...did you read this in a book or something?"

"I've read various eroticas, including mare on mare love, though it's nice to actually experience it"

Trixie grinned and hugged Twilight, letting her do her work, "You're doing great so far"

Twilight nodded and continued thrusting and eventually started kissing Trixie again. Part of her wonders what has gotten into her, normally she wouldn't just give in to these desires, but it feels too right. Trixie's softness and the moans of pleasure during the kiss was a great feeling for Twilight, she didn't want to stop.

Meanwhile Applejack and Rarity are waiting at the train station, Rarity felt a bit awkward since she's almost been avoiding alone time with Applejack ever since Applejack got clued in on her crush, it's one thing to talk with her in a group since Applejack wouldn't bring it up, but if alone nothing will stop Applejack.

Applejack could sense Rarity felt a bit awkward, so she decided to stop the tentsion, "So how has Sweetie Belle been since that day?"

Rarity looked curious that Applejack choose to discuss that but better than the crush, "She's been doing well, nothing bad came of it really"

"So you ain't mad at Rumble?"

Rarity shook her head, "He seemed genuinely sorry, and he does care about her, mistakes happen after all. Plus I should have been expected that she would go through those emotions since I've went through that same desire at her age. I'd Rather Sweetie made this mistake with Rumble at least, both learned something from it. She also commented how sweet he was during it, how much he was a natural, even if a little rough on occasion."

Applejack blushed, "That's enough of that, let's discuss something else, like your thoughts on this whole Rainbow Dash thing?"

Rarity could sense that Applejack was likely avoiding talking about the crush for her sake, she appreciated that but she knew they needed to discuss it, "Applejack, I appreciate you trying not to ask what you really want to ask, but you needn't do that, you may ask any question you truly have"

Applejack wasn't too surprised Rarity saw through her ruse, Rarity knows her well, "Ok Rares, ah just want to know. Do you have a crush on me?"

Rarity sighed and looked around, "If I tell you, you promise you won't be mad? Or hate me? Or stop being my friend?"

"Ah just want the truth Rarity, ah won't hate you for that," Applejack said honestly;

Rarity nodded, "Ok, the truth is, I have a tiny little crush on you"

Applejack nodded, "Figures, how long?"

"It's always been there sort of, maybe I didn't realize it at first, but it really took head shortly after Thunderlane joined the group. I remember how upset you were and I felt so bad for you, and I wanted to constantly be with you to comfort you, mainly cause I didn't like seeing you act all bitter. I started to realize how much I liked the old you, not to mention seeing you hurt and isolated made me feel for you more, even after I got mad at you for hurting Coco. I did feel sadness from, because I thought I lost the old you."

Applejack nodded, Rarity continued, "Once you accepted Thunderlane and went back to your old self, I started to appreciate your kind nature again, and while I didn't show it, I did get a bit jealous when you spent so much time with Thunderlane in Manehatten"

"And when Cloudchaser hugged me that one time," Applejack pointed out.

"Right, but now you know, I do feel for you Applejack," Rarity said.

Applejack rubbed her head, "Kinda shocked at that, never took you for being into mares, you've always seemed more attracted in stallions than mares."

"Well I do find some stallions attractive, I still think Thunderlane is very handsome and if he was still single I would have likely dated him by now. But I think I'm just like this for you since you are what I wanted in a stallion. Strong yet sensitive, proud yet caring, smart and pretty," Rarity turned to Applejack very worried and concerned. I was afraid of risking our friendship, so that's why I kept it a secret, I imagine it's the same reason Thunderlane kept it a secret from Rainbow Dash for a while. But I think you'd make a great marefriend Applejack, I...I really like you."

Applejack let that sink in, she expected the answer but hearing it was surreal.

"So...how are you feeling?"

Before she could answer, the train came, "Damn, we'll talk about this later"

The train stopped and some familiar faces came out.

"Oh hell yeah! DJ Pon 3 in the Crystal Empire!" Vinyl Scratch said exiting the train.

Octavia exited the train, "Vinyl, don't start drawing unwanted attention"

"Oh relax Octy, just having a little fun"

"Yeah well-", Octavia noticed Applejack and Rarity, "Vinyl...Applejack's here"

Vinyl noticed her, "Oh yeah, sup Applejack! Your family makes some rockin' apple treats, and Rarity, your business doing well?"

Applejack and Rarity waved, Octavia looked a bit nervous near Applejack.

"So Applejack...you're still friends with Twilight Sparkle and the others? Or did Rarity join your exile?" Octavia asked.

Applejack groaned, "I'm still friends, ah know I messed up really badly but we all made peace"

Rarity nodded, "It's true, she's more than made up for her mistakes"

"What about the colt she chased?" Octavia asked.

"They made peace, now he loves her, and she loves him", Rarity said.

"It's true, ah love Rumble dearly, and ah made peace with his brother," Applejack said.

"It's true", they heard a voice say, one Applejack and Rarity recognized.

"Coco darling!" Rarity said, greeting the oncoming Coco Pommel.

Coco waved and appraoched the musicians, "Applejack has been really kind to Rumble lately, she's not like how she was in Canterlot, even I've forgiven when she hit me, cause I know she feels really guilty, event to this day"

The musicians looked to Applejack.

"Hey ponies flip from time to time, I ain't gonna judge", Vinyl said.

"Same here, if she's not that way anymore then we should move on", Octavia said.

Applejack smiled in relief, "Good, now let's head back to the hotel"

The ponies started making their way back, meanwhile at the hotel, Soarin had just finished talking to the Pegasi

"Don't worry, I'll talk to Spitfire, I think you can all have a shot, even you Lightning Dust, especially if what Rainbow Dash said was true about you mellowing out," Soarin said.

Lightning nodded, "Thanks Soarin, and thanks Rainbow, I really owe you one."

Rainbow did a modest shrug, "It's the least I can do after...well you know"

Lightning nodded, "I still wanna owe you one. Anyway I need to get get back to Trixie", Lightning then left.

"I need to go talk with Lightning some more", Rumble said and left as well.

"Let's all go, we have a vacation to enjoy", Thunderlane said.

Before they left, Soarin called Rainbow, "Hey Rainbow, one more thing, can I speak to you a moment?"

"Sure, you all oh ahead", Rainbow said.

Thunderlane looked suspiciously at Soarin, "Fine, but just talking...", he left with Flitter and Cloudchaser.

Soarin approached Rainbow, "Listen, I have to be honest, you have more of a shot at getting in than your friends, Spitfire's impressed but really stubborn about who she lets in, thought I think I can get you in there, and maybe Lightning Dust since she's just as impressed with her, especially once I tell her you got her mellowed out. I need to be sure you can handle that, you said you wanted to get in as a group, but sometimes things don't work out, not that they can never get in. It's better if you just for now, and once you get high enough ranked, you can help them. I know you have what it takes to be a great Wonderbolt."

Rainbow looked so happy to hear that, "Thanks Soarin, means a lot coming from a Wonderbolt. You, Fleetfoot and Spitfire have always been my favorites, mostly you since Spitfire and Fleetfoot provd to be a little shady on occasion but they're still good flyers"

"I know a lot of funny Spitfire and Fleetfoot stories, maybe we can chat soon, alone, I'm sure your coltfriend won't mind, it's just a talk between friends," Soarin said.

Rainbow pondered but nodded, "I guess so, if I'm gonna be a Wonderbolt, I think we can have a chat"

"Sweet, well I should go, bye Rainbow", he then turned to a plant in the corner, "Bye Fluttershy"

Rainbow heard an "Eep", and saw Fluttershy pop from behind the plant and run away.

"She's so weird", Rainbow said, Soarin chuckled, he found that cute.

With Lightning and Rumble, they went back to her room, where Lightning found Twilight getting it on with Trixie. Lightning liked seeing that, though Rumble felt a bit odd, though he had to admit, those mares looked really cute there.

"She went for it, well I'm gonna join in, you wanna watch or try your luck with the girls?"

"I'll let you have some fun, I'm gonna go find a filly", Rumble said.

"Good, next time I'll show you the other ways we have sex, but practice makes perfect, see you kid", she went inside as Rumble left.

In the room all Lightning could say is, "Princess, your kingdom is going to be invaded". She approached the two and positioned herself so her front was on Twilight's rear.

"Wow, that feels weird, but good weird", Twilight said.

"Totally, you keep in good shape, I like how it feels against my thighs!" Lightning said and moved around a bit, causing Twilight to moan.

"I don't even know why I'm doing this, but it's so fun..." Twilight said as she pleasured Trixie and felt pleasure from Lightning.

Meanwhile Rumble walked around, "Apple Bloom!? Sweetie Belle!? Scootaloo!? Babs!?"

"Rumble!?" he heard Dinky call, he went into the room where she was, "If you're looking for the Crusaders, they're not here, they're out back with another Apple Family member, Braeburn"

"Braeburn? I know him, Applejack said he loves talking about his home town," Rumble said.

"So I take it you talked with Lightning about Sweetie Belle, must have been a long talk"

"Yeah, she even taught me a few tips on how to romance a girl, I was hoping to find the Crusaders so I can get a little practice in there," Rumble admitted.

"Oh...well if you want, you can find another filly willing to practice, perhaps one that's already a friend, sound familiar?" Dinky's eyes glowed briefly.

Rumble understood, "Give me a moment", he went outside to ponder, "This is great, I could practice my skills with her, she's willing and I'm willing, and that's all that matters with sex right? One one hoof Derpy said she would be angry at me and would likely get me in trouble, but on the other hoof...", Rumble's eyes glowed briefly and he had an giddy grin, "Dinky is too cute to resist"

Rumble went inside to Dinky.

"So, have you made your-"

Rumble rushed at her and planted a strong kiss on her that lasted a few seconds, and laid her on the bed, "I'm gonna make you feel happy Dinky, I'll be careful since you're new to this and I'm not that experienced but we can try to work on this together."

Dinky nodded, "Ok Rumble, thanks."

Before he did more, he stopped to ask, "You're not in heat right?"

Dinky shook her head, "No, I'm good, don't worry about anything."

Rumble nodded and kissed her more and went down below, "Prepare yourself", he spread her legs, "It's gonna feel weird at first, I'll let you get used to it."

Dinky nodded and waited until Rumble made his move, and he really impressed her, "Oh wow! This is amazing!"

Rumble shushed her, "Keep in down! Don't draw attention! I don't want Derpy to know just yet."

Dinky nodded and Rumble went back to pleasuring her. He hoped he was doing well, though Dinky's moans proved that he was, it relieved him that he could make a filly happy. He hoped to have this luck with all the fillies, the magic in this inn made it all the more possible.

Author's Note

So for what it's worth, I'm using some anime logic here, while the Crusaders aren't as young as they are in the show, they're still a bit inexperienced. They're small but not that small, same with Rumble. They're nearing their adult years and are still teenagers. So they're ready to explore this type of stuff, but the other ponies were too or embarrassed to teach them, only Lightning Dust was willing to do so.
