The One Behind The Mask And Lightning
Epilogue: And So, The Mask Finally Falls...
Previous ChapterNext Chapter/!\ CLOP AHEAD! /!\
It was early evening on a cool, crisp fall night . Taylor had finally gotten accustomed to sleeping whenever he needed to. He felt something nuzzling at his neck and a warm arm wrap around his slumbering form. Even without his eyes closed, he smiled and leaned in, locking his lips with his one true lover. She lets out a cute little giggle as they kiss, her tail swaying behind her happily.
“Good evening to you my sweet.”
Luna said as she nuzzled him more.
“It is always a good evening when I wake up to you, Lulu.”
He said in a warm and soft tone, reaching over and cupping her left cheek into his hand. She closes her eyes and nuzzling into his hand affectionately, always so happy to feel her mate’s loving touch.
“It is time for you to wake now. I have Night Court this evening, but when I finish, I have something I wish to show you. That I have shown nopony ever. Not even Tia knows about it. And I feel...that if I trust you with this, our bond will strengthen.”
Taylor was a bit taken back by this. Something that she had never even shared with her sister? Her own flesh and blood? He was feeling more than anything, honored by this. He simply offers her a smile and nods leaning in and pressing his forehead against hers.
“Alright Lulu. I will be awaiting you as always in our favorite spot, just like back then.”
Luna smiles to him in return and nods, giving him one more kiss before heading out the door.After a few minutes, Taylor gets up from out of the bed and stares into the mirror, lightly running his hand along his upper cheek where the mask still laid firmly in place. When would he ever get this thing off? What would Luna think if she saw what was hiding behind it? So many question flooded his mind as he gazed into his reflection. He wasn’t in anyway in resemblance of his former life. Taylor knew what was underneath the mask. A face scarred by the cruel hand of fate that was dealt to him that very same night he was brought to this land. Just as the scars on his body had blackened over and hardened, he was sure that those on his face had done so as well. No...he wasn’t going to doubt this. If her feelings did ring true for him, she would accept him in this form as she did in his last. He knows Luna far better than that.
Do not worry yourself Taylor. She has accepted you, just as you have accepted her, even though you know her flaws and the deeds she has committed, you didn't let that stop you from loving her as you did all those decades ago. Have faith, my friend.
“I know that Sombra, I just wish I knew why this mask was bound to me in the first place. It is my creation sure. But what was the purpose?”
We shall find out soon enough. Give it time.
Taylor simply nods and gets his clothing on, sliding on his cloak to add an extra layer of warmth. He grabs his extendable baton and slides it in his coat, you never know when it would be needed. He makes his way out of the chambers he and Luna shared, walking through the corridors and makes his way to their favorite spot in the west garden. He walked over to the large tree, sitting under it and waited patiently for her to return to him, lowering his head and closes his eyes, falling deep into thought.
--Meeting Place, 11:55PM--
Taylor slowly opens his eyes as he hears those familiar hoofsteps of Luna approaching, he stands up and smiles to her as she comes around the tall wall of bushes that obscured view from everyone, even Celestia’s eyes. Luna comes up to him and stands on her hind legs, Taylor instinctively reaching out and taking her forehooves into his hands, their eyes meet.
“Taylor, are you ready?”
“Yes Lulu...I trust you completely.”
“Then close your eyes my love, and don’t let go of me.”
“Never.”
With a sudden burst of a dark blue light, they couple was swallowed up, vanishing into an unknown area of...somewhere. Taylor opens his eyes and looks around. What he saw was truly breathtaking. This place that he and Luna was in was beautiful beyond all compare. Twas the night sky,dressed in the most beautiful and luminous stars he had ever seen, and the moon in the background was as bright as can be, as if they were standing super close to it. Taylor’s gaze went downward, they were standing on...water. From what he could tell, they were in the middle of a lake that had a small island in the middle of it. Which had a large bed with a large canopy over it that the moonlight shone through from above. Taylor then switches his gaze back to Luna, she began to speak.
“Taylor...those words you spoke to me. Do they still ring true in your heart? Please tell me.”
Taylor lowers his head in thought, then comes back up with a loving smile.
“Lulu, I am going to be honest with you. Never in my whole life, did I ever imagine I would ever find happiness like I have here in this world. I have friends who care for and love me. A new life to live, and then there is you. The one being who I never expected to ever fall in love with and have the chance to be with. We come from two separate worlds Luna, but it would seem, that Fate was kind enough to bring me to you. And I am not going to lie, I am happy I got to fall in love with you Luna. And I did it even though I wasn’t aware of my past life here. Luna, I love you. Always and forever. You are the one I truly belong with and no other will substitute. Even though I am not the pony you fell in love with anymore back then, you still fell in love with me anyways without even knowing it was me.”
He squeezes her hooves gently as he locks eyes with her.
“Luna, I want to be with you forever and ever. I want to be your eternal lover. To comfort and console you in the dark times, and be there to have fun with you in the fun times. I belong to nopony but you. And that is how I want it.”
Luna’s eyes well up with tears not of sadness, but overwhelming joy and happiness. Her body nearly shaking from his genuine words. Her heart was beating ninety miles an hour and it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest.
“Taylor...you truly have made me the happiness mare alive. Please...kiss me, show me how much you love me…”
Before she could finish her sentence, he locked his lips with ehrs into a kiss that was full of his love and passion for the princess of the night, she lets out a small whimpers as he eyes close slowly, leaning into the kiss as well. Suddenly a black and blue light begins to swirl around Taylor, voices echoing around the area they were in.
He has come so far hasn’t he?
Indeed he has. I think he had met more than enough of the prerequisites…
I believe you are right. We shall release his binds then.
Both of the voices chuckle lightly before both saying.
You continue to entertain us, young man. We may be releasing you, but we will still be watching. We wish you luck in your future and love with this alicorn. Goodbye for now..
And with that, Taylor was lifted into the air and pulled from his lover’s lips, the light continuing to swirl around him, quicker this time. Luna reaches up at him as he is pulled away from her. Suddenly, the light shines even bright around him for a few moments, after which it lowers his body back onto the ground. He collapses to his knees and hands.
“Taylor!”
Luna shouted as she runs over to him and slides her head under his arms so that it rests on her neck to support him. He lets out a groan as he lifts his head. And just as he did, the mask began to slowly release itself from his skin. Falling to the water, hitting it and tumbling away as if it was on a hardwood floor. He slowly opens his eyes and looks around. Something was different though. His vision, it was...clear. So very clear in fact that he could see things he could barely make out in all the years he had been like this. He looks down in his reflection at the water. Yes, the scars were indeed there, but his eyes had gone from that frightening deep blue and black sclera, to his normal white sclera, and brown and hazel eyes, even the small spots of grey in his hazel eye returned. But, he could see plainly and clearly, as if he never had the affliction ever in his life.
The only thing Taylor could do now, was cry. Things in his vision were now so very precise and clear. Something he had always wanted in his life was now given to him.
“Luna...I can see...everything now. I can see just how hard you work with the night sky now, I can see every detail of your beautiful eyes.”
“And I can see you now Taylor...the one who you truly are behind that mask has been revealed to me. And I can’t be anymore happier with what I see. Your real eyes are absolutely beautiful. And your face is very lovely, now that I can see all of it. Those markings go very well.”
“I am just...so glad that I have been given so much here. Twilight and the other, you, and now this.”
Tears of happiness start streaming down his face at all the abundance of joy in his heart. Luna leans in and kisses his tears away and gently cups his cheek in one of her hooves.
“Taylor...let us consummate our eternal love. Let me give you my gift of love and life, so that I may share it with you forever and always”
She said as she tilted her head towards the island in the middle of the lake, teleporting them both on top of the bed. She stands over him for a moment, then lowers her body onto his and locks lips with him again. Taylor reaches up and places his hands on her rear caressing and squeezing it lovingly as they kissed once more. Luna lets out a cute little moan and she wastes no time in riding Taylor of his clothing and herself of her regalia. Now skin on fur contact, she begins to rub and grind against him, enjoying the feeling of his smooth skin against her.Their kiss lasted for what felt like forever, until they finally parted lips, breathing slightly heavily from the excitement and passion going through their forms.
“Luna...you are so beautiful. Nopony compares to you.”
“And you are a very handsome human. I don’t care what others say about us. I know you rightfully belong to me, just as I rightfully belong to you.”
She slowly begins to kiss down his body, running her hooves gently over his exposed flesh. Massaging and rubbing over his form as she makes her way down to the prize that she was seeking, nuzzling against him every now and then on her way down. Taylor shudders slightly from the sensation of her sweet kisses, reaching down and running his fingers through her ever flowing mane. She enjoys it very much when he does that. She may be a ruling member of a diarchy. But now, she was just a pony wanting to show her love to the one and only male her heart soars for. She leans in closely, gently nosing the muscle that rested on his orbs, feeling her hot breath upon the sensitive organ began to make it rise up. Taylor lets out a low moan as he felt that warm tongue of her lick up and alongside it. His free hand squeezing the bedsheets into his grip as he has been wanting this again for quite some time. And knowing Luna, she has as well.
“Mmmh, I have missed your taste my love. And your scent is simply intoxicating..”
She said as she nuzzles into his lap, bringing a hoof up and lightly stroking his member up and down, those beautiful teal eyes looking up into his. Taylor chuckles lightly.
“I know you won’t want to go any further until you got a bit of my seed in your belly. Please my dear, drink up.”
Without hesitation, Luna wraps her warm and soft lips around his growing member, beginning to suckle and nurse on it with her hooves resting against his lower abdomen. Bobbing her head gently, closing her eyes and looking as if she was on cloud nine. Taylor could smell her arousal in the air. Her own folds winking and moistening as she nursed on him. Taylor continues to enjoy her loving attention to his member, his eyes closing and his hands grab ahold of the bedsheets again, squeezing and digging his fingers into them.
“Oh god Lulu...you certainly know how to get me going don’t you? When you get your fill...mmmmh, I am gonna show you just how much I love you...just you wait…”
Luna looked up as him with a loving smile around his cock and those beautiful eyes. Everytime she gazed at him like that, his heart would nearly jump out of his chest. She had such beautiful teal eyes that anyone could get lost in. As Taylor was thinking about that, Luna began to pick up her speed and suckling power. It was clear that she hungered for his seed, and she was not going to back down until she got what she wanted. She moaned and whimpered, bringing her hooves down and lightly massaging his orbs as she continues to milk him for his first release.Taylor’s breathing quickened, squeezing the bedsheets even more harder as his orgams was close at hand. He began to thrust his hips up against her pretty face, taking hold of her horn and running his fingers along it gently. He didn’t know it, but the way he was stroking her horn was increasing her own pleasure. He could tell he was doing something right because of how hard she was sucking on him now, and her tail was swaying more. This causing him to feel that familiar sensation creeping up his body once more. Yes, the sensation of a powerful release building up.
“L-Lulu...I’m gonna…”
She pulls off of his member with a lewd pop and breathes lustfully, giving him those bedroom eyes again.
“Yes my love, give me what I want, allow me to drink from you once more!”
She exclaimed as she went straight back to work, running her tongue around his memebr and suckling harder and faster now, feeling his member throb and swell within her muzzle a bit more. He started panting a bit more heavily, that sensation getting ready to nosedive down his spine and out of his body. With a sudden thrust of his hips, he began pumping his essence into her maw, the feeling and taste of his seed filling her mouth was enough to make the mare squeal and have a small orgasm of her own. Her eyes widening for a moment, then closing as she begins to nurse on the flowing stream. Her own juices leaking down the side of her hind legs she was laying on. She gulps and gulps as she drinks down her lover, happy as can be. After the stream ends, she slowly pulls off of him again with another wet pop, licking her lips clean and swallowing what was left on her lips
“Delicious as always…”
She said with an adorable giggle. Taylor placed his hands on her sides gently and gets ready to switch positions, but is stopped by her.
“Let..me stay on top this time, please?”
Taylor arches a brow, but nods and allows her to stay how she is. She climbs a bit further up until her warm, dripping sex is right over his still hard member. She places her hooves on his chest gently and lowers herself down onto him, his member sliding into her marehood perfectly like a glove.He reaches down to her rear, placing his hands on each of her flanks and looks up into her eyes lovingly.
“Are you ready for the ride of your life then, my princess of the night?”
“Yes, my dark wizard...I am ready.”
She said as she began to work her lower body and and down on his member, he in turn begins to thrust up inside of her, meeting with her in rhythm as their love making continued. As this went on, they locked lips every now and again, kissing and nosing one another lovingly, pressing their foreheads against each other. All was wonderful. Just them and no one else, showing each other just how much they loved one another. This wasn’t like the last time they made love. That last time was a bit more wild and lust driven on both of their parts, but this was more for affection and love than anything else. Sweet and gentle. Luna starts to ride him a bit faster, her soft rear lightly bouncing on his hips as he meets her riding with his own thrusts. The sound of their forms slapping against each other echoed throughout the area.
“Taylor...I love you, I love you so so very much!”
She exclaimed as she began to ride on him as quickly as she could, her inner velvety walls squeezing tightly around him.
“As I you L:una, always and forever!”
He exclaimed as well, they were both reaching their final climax after going on for about awhile now. They could feel each other shaking and getting ready to explode once more. Luna was more than ready to receive her lover’s seed once again, and he was more than happy to give it to her.
“Luna..I..”
“As am I My love, as am I!”
They both let out a synced loud moan as they begin to climax as one, his seed filling her insides and her own climax milking him for all he has, this goes on for a few minutes, the waves of pleasure racking both their forms in absolute bliss. After their ride ends, Luna flops down on his body with a satisfied grin, closing her eyes and rubbing his chest gently, his member still buried deep within ehr. She leans up and locks lips with him once more, Taylor not minding this one bit.
“And now, in the name of Faust, we are now eternally bound.”
She said as a small dark blue light began to glow on Taylor’s body, just over his heart. Luna’s crescent moon cutie mark was now placed directly onto Taylor,symbolizing that Luna has now truly found the one she wants at her side forever and always.
“It is done.”
Taylor said with a loving tone and begins to run his fingers through her hair affectionately once more. The couple just laid there, knowing that even should things become dark in this world, they will fight through it together. And never to be split apart again.
