When a God of Lust and a lot of dirty minds come together...

Over one thousand years ago, Eros, god of lust threatened Equestria with corruption and debauchery. His minions defeated any resistance and his victory was near. His plans were thwarted however by the two Royal Sisters, who used the Elements of Harmony to banish him to Tartarus. There he sat for centuries, planning his revenge.
Now his time has come. The old shackles have been shattered. His escape his nigh. This time however he will not come with conquest. No...this time he will use subtler methods. An avatar, who will hide his intent from outsiders, shall carry out his will. And the god of corruption will give his Chosen One any blessing he desires, should he prove himself.

This is an interactive story.
This means that the Protagonists action will be partially controlled by the readers. The story will start off slow, with introduction of the characters, the rules and the world, but will pick up pace pretty fast, if the right decisions are made.
All characters are aged up.

Contains: Mind Control, Corruption, Sluttification, Body Altercation, Rape, Impregnation, and many many more....

Author's Note

Greetings,
I am nohen, a german brony and horrible person. Well at least when it comes to Clop-Fics. I must confess I´m not a fan of romance, lovey-dovey, smoochie-gouchie or whatever you wanna call it. What I do like however is corruption. When an upstanding character loses his morality and drowns in an whirpool of debauchery and darkness, that gets my blood pumping. Even better when they are a very virtous and/or prude person. The transformation from "innocent angel" to" shameless slut" is very arousing to me, and I know some of you share this sentiment. Add a little dominance and dirty talk into the mix and you got me.

About two-three years ago I found a clopfic that had a rather unique concept, in that the readers could influence the story through the comments. It was an interesting und fun read, on top of being a clopfic and the participation let the protagonist be more, than just the usual shallow blank that provided us the means to defile and...well...fuck our favorite characters. He was an actual character in a story, which was a nice change for once. That, and because of the participation you felt like you earned the juicy clop-scenes. It was fun.
Sadly that fic is now, more or less, dead. The author hasn´t checked in for months and any progress has been halted. However the concept of the story stuck with me and even though i never written a clopfic before (I have written plenty of storys before, just not this kind, and not on this site) and english is not my first language, I want to give a try. So anyone, who can bear with my grammar and occasional slip up, enjoy this fic and have fun. :twilightsmile:
These are rules for this "Interactive Clopfic". They serve as a guideline, which you should abide, if you want to participate. Note, that any comment which doesn´t follow the rules, will be consequently ignored by me. So, watch out.
1. Roleplay is encouraged
2. You can take no direct action into the story, only communicate with Eros or the Avatar through the Corruptor, who will then react
3. Decisions will be made either through majority or by my choosing. Which applies will be said beforhand.
4. There will be no insults or fights in the comments, if someone doesnt agree with a particular decision. Talk it out like normal, civilized people
5. Questions at the author (me), must be marked by quotations. Otherwise I will ignore them.
6. There will be no snuff, necrophilia, or other brutal stuff. This is a dark clopfic, but not a slaughterhouse.
7. Have fun.

Eros Plan (edited)

Somewhere in Tartarus, below the plane of Debauchery

Deep halled the steps of Eros, the god of Lust, in the dark chamber, as he entered his most secret sanctuary. Centuries it had taken, to carve this place out of the unflinching rock of Tartarus, away from the prying eyes of demon lords, fallen deities and, most of all, Cerberus. But he made it, and subsequently turned this cavern into his own domain, where normal rules of the infernal prison did not apply and his powers reigned supreme. The room itself was massive, easily capable of housing hundreds of ponies. It was fitted with every luxury, including baths, a kingsized bed, chandeliers, etc.

In the midst of all this was a throne carved out of the bones of the unfortunate souls who perished in Tartarus. Pictures of all manner of depraved acts were carved into its surface. On the left side one could the see the moon princess, a cock up her ass, degrading tattoos all over her body calling her "slut", "whore" or other things, with a broken look crawling on the ground. On the right side the princess of the sun, her tits and clit pierced, a collar around her neck with pleading expression towards the middle, while her cunt was dripping with arousal.

Eros sighed. Wish-Fulfillment, nothing more. One thousand years ago Celestia and Luna defeated him with the elements of harmony, and ever since then he had languished in Tartarus, unable to influence the outside world or even get at least a good fuck! For a millennia reduced to fapping was the worst torture someone could have inflicted on him. Well, except for killing him, of course...

A look into the giant mirror near the door showed him that his body hadn´t changed. His red fur was still shimmering and blistering with power, his wings wide and strong. Muscles were chiseled and gave him just the right look of strength and stamina that would even put a top-athlete to shame. His face was handsome and rugged, giving him a rogue-ish appearance that, in combination with his fiery eyes, promised all the dreams in the world. These features, along with his well endowed cock, would likely make mares all over equestria throw themselves at him, even without resorting to magic. In fact, Luna herself had surrendered to his beauty, reduced to nothing but a quivering orgasmic mess under the might of his prick. If it hadn't been for Celestia and the purging effect of the elements, Eros would probably have been able to make the dark princess a complete and utter cumslut. HIS cumslut.

But it was not meant to be...

Eros walked towards his throne and sat down on it. Immediately, power surged into his body and his long orange mane welled up into a state of ethereal fire. A millennia’s worth of magic had been stored stored within this throne, bit by bit. This was his way out, his grand play. He had not been idle. One thousand years were enough time to come up with a plan, to regain his might and exact revenge on his enemies. The first time he had come with an army of succubi and incubi, and for while it had been effective. Mares were giving themselves up for a mere chance at the heavenly pleasure and carnal desires offered by Eros, while stallions had thrown away their weapons and tools to be part of the new world order, where they could take and fuck any mare that they wanted. Princess Platinum broke her crown when she sucked Eros cock and Clover the Clever was turned into a slut who flung herself at her former students to satisfy her never-ending lust. Chancellor Puddingham enacted the Male Supremacy Law while he marked Smart Cookie as his first sexslave, while Commander Hurricane started the first raids into unconquered territory. Everything went perfect until Celestia and Luna arrived, and with them the Elements of Harmony. Eros fought back, and great battles ensued. For a time, he gained the upper hand, but in the end he still failed, caught off guard, and was banished.

This time however, he would be a little bit more careful.

Channeling the stored magic, he drew a complex circle in the air with a depiction of the moon on the left side, the sun on the right and a star in the middle. Then he spoke the ancient spell he had constructed, word leaving his lips, unhearable for mortal ears. The outline of the circle burst into flames and magic lay heavy in the air. Streams of aether showed themselves, binding the moon, sun and stars to Eros cock, which stood erect. Then, after he spoke the final word, the entire circle was wreathed in violet flames and an arousing odor filled the air. Precum dropped in heavy globs from his cock, when Eros braced himself for the final part of the ritual.

The Fire sprung from the aether and raced towards him. It touched his prick and an indescribable pain seared through his body, sucking the air out of his lungs and making it impossible to scream. His balls felt like they were being crushed under a mountain, and he could feel his manhood tearing itself away from his body. After another agonizing second, which felt like hours, the pain receded, leaving only an exhausted and spent Eros behind. His eyes fluttered open. A look down showed him that he was unharmed, yet he knew that he would forever remember this pain. This pain, though, was a small price to pay for what the ritual had given him.

Before his eyes floated a mirror of sorts. Under the glass was an array of gems resembling buttons and sliders, as well as multiple small holes in the middle. All of this was encased in gold, the size no bigger than a newborn's head. The Corruptor.

Back in Eros’ heyday, before it was destroyed by the elements of harmony, this artifact had looked like a scepter. Now, it was restored in a form that was a little more practical. And practical it needed to be, for what Eros had planned. He took the device and tipped at the glass. Immediately a light flashed behind it and words appeared on the mirror: For communication, speak into the receiver below.. An arrow pointed to the holes in the casing. Eros licked his lips und spoke: "Activate Project Avatar".

The words faded, and were replaced with multiple icons: A map, the body of a genderless pony, a heart, and multiple question marks. More words then flashed across the screen: Building connection...

That was the first step, Eros had decided. In order for his plan to succeed, he needed more than just magic, powerful as it was. He needed to recruit the dirtiest and most depraved minds in the universe. If they were willing to help, that was...

Connection established!

Multiple bubbles appeared on the screen and were soon filled with loads and loads of words, most of them questions. They had answered. Eros cleared his throat.

"Good day, or evening, morning or night. Whatever time it is, where you are. I am Eros, God of Corruption and I have contacted you for one very specific task. This device you have before you is something I have created in order to contact you. You have been chosen by a method involving complex parameters and skills. Don´t ask how, interdimensional sorcery is a pain to explain. Just know that it works. You were chosen to bring the joy of debauchery and carnal sins to a land of innocence and....harmony" The last word he hissed with contempt. "I know for certain that you are of a similar mindset of me, otherwise you would not have been contacted. The Corruptor, which is the device before you, will give you all the information you need about this world, although I have been informed that most of you are already familiar with it, albeit not in this form.

The goals are as follows: Corrupt Equestria, destroy the elements of harmony, and enslave the Royal Sisters.

Now, some of you might be wondering why I contacted you. The truth is, I don’t have enough power to escape Tartarus. At least not without help. That’s why I need you. Many of have observed this world and are more up to date about what has been going there. You are aware of the dangers and risks better than I. And, who knows, perhaps you could bring a certain mix of perversion into the whole affair that even I might not be familiar with."

Eros swiped the mirror and tapped on the pony-symbol.

"Now, how are we gonna do this? The Corruptor has enough energy to create an avatar of me. A Champion, so to speak. He will act through my, I mean, our will and help carry out tasks that we are unable to accomplish on our own. You will now be presented with the possible choices."

The mirror blinks and show some sort of menu:

Gender: male fixed
Race: Pegasus (Flight, Agility), Unicorn (Magic), Earthpony (Strength, Stamina), Zebra (Big Cock and Balls, Affinity to Element)
Appearance: Variable
Traits: big cock, strong, handsome, Affinity to magic (talent for spells, not ability], fast, charismatic, big balls (includes semen production), dominant, Affinity to element (fire, water, lightning,etc.), intelligent choose two

"Currently the options are limited, but as time goes on, and enough corruption is sown, new traits will unlock themselves and can be purchased. See it as a kind of blessing I..., I mean, we give our champion. So don't worry - we can make him into a dominant, strong, handsome sex machine later on. Appearance you can help determine by giving me your ideas in the form of a short description of him, and I will choose the one that I like most. Doesn´t have to be detailed.

Now, race is important. Depending on what you choose, he gets some race-specific traits. In short: Unicorns have magic, Pegasi can fly and are naturally dexterous, and Earth ponies are strong, and have good stamina. Traits that have been chosen a second time will be amplified. For example: an earth pony who is also strong will get a body that could come close to my own standard, at least in the muscle-department. For unicorns, affinity to magic and/or elements will alter their abilities and sometimes also their appearances in that particular direction. There is a reason why red unicorns are most of the time adept at fire magic. Easy to identify, too."

Eros swipes the mirror again and taps the map. A map of Equestria and the surrounding lands sprung up. An arrow blinked and pointed towards a place named "Ponyville".

"This is where our Avatar will start. This is the first place we have to take, because this is where the elements are. We need to have them taken out of the picture, before we advance further. After we have succeeded in that, we can move to other places. However, I do not feel comfortable planning that far ahead, because I have the feeling that Ponyville alone will be quite a task. Call it a hunch.

The map will also show us things called "events" that can have a significant impact on our progress should we take part in them. How that exactly works I´m not sure, but the Corruptor tells me you are familiar with it."

The map vanishes and the heart is chosen. A blank screen pops up.

"This will show us the relationships of our Avatar and every known information about the specific person should we desire it. Let’s take me for example."

A Portrait of Eros shows up on the screen, grinning lecherously. Under the Portraits stands the following:

Eros
Willpower: 10/10
Corruption: 10/10
Lust: 20/10
Secrets: locked
Traits: locked

"The closer your relationship gets, the more secrets and traits will be unlocked, to give information you can work with. You can also add some traits on your own, if your influence on the person is strong enough. Let’s say: by training them into a sex slave they would get submissive, and the like.

Willpower shows how much self-control and discipline the individual has, while corruption and lust are self-explanatory."

Eros swipes the mirror a last time and returns to the speech bubbles.

"Keep in mind, that we need to be careful in the beginning. Our avatar will be weak and without many abilities. The Corruptor also is running with a limited supply of energy, so many of its functions are sealed. These sealed functions are represented by question marks. The more we corrupt the ponies, the more power we will get. Also keep in mind that we have to keep a low profile. If we are too careless or obvious in our seductions, ponies will get suspicious. Powerful ponies. The last we need is Celestia breathing down our neck."

He steps back, while levitating the mirror and falls back on his throne. Then a slimy, evil grin parts Eros face, revealing razor sharp teeth. "Now give me your input, bronies. Also, what should the name of our lovely avatar be?"

Newborn Evil

In just a matter of seconds the speechbubbles filled with loads and loads of suggestions, what the avatar should be like. Eros grinned at the enthusiasm that his new allies brought into this. He was honestly even a little bit suprised. Apperently those entities had been more bored, than he anticipated. Could their own realms no longer satisfy their needs? Or weren´t they able to indulge in them in the first place. The god didn´t know. The Corruptor hadn´t given him any information, who exactly these beings were. Just that their morals and desires aligned with Eros and that they had spied on equestria on a regular basis. For all he knew, they could be eldritch abominations, fallen gods, like himself, or simple mortals, who found a crack between dimensions.
And it didn´t matter. From what he saw in their suggestions, they lusted after an opportunity, where they could indulge in their basest desires. Even if it was by proxy. And that meant they were allies. Even if just for this "project".

Eros choughed loudly to bring the attention of the "drifters", as he would now refer to them, back to him. "It seems we have reached a clear majority concerning our avatar. One last word before we continue.", he said, while his finger deleted the suggestions that didn´t picked his interest.
"I had first planned on having us take over the most suited candidate for our cause. Lead in him in the best direction and let him make his own decisions. But I´ve come to the conclusion, that this method would be too risky. Too much room for error and mistakes. Worst of all, we couldn´t make sure, if he had the resources necessary to carry out the task. We could get some miserable, half-starved colt, who could not amount to much. Thats why we are going to take a different route." The mirror was now empty, with just a half dozen speechbubbles remaining, that made into the final decision.
"We will create the avatar from scratch. Thats why I needed your suggestions. They serve as the foundation for our champion. This will consume a lot of energy, so our options at the beginning to influence him will be limited. Probalby not more than some ideas in his head, instead of full control. But that may work out to our advantage. It will make him more believable to any suspicious individual. Also don´t worry of him going rouge. Our goal will be imprinted in his mind. No matter what he does, he will always strive to pervert and corrupt his surroundings. And the more he does that, the more we can influence him. So it will only get easier, the longer he survives." The last suggestions were thrown away, with only one remaining.
"And survival will be our first priority in the beginning." With these words, Eros took the winner und pulled it over the blankslate-avatar. The Corruptor blinked yellow. Character Creation finished. Confirm?
Eros tipped on the yes-button and the devices colour changed to green. Than it began to vibrate heavily, wrenching itself from Eros telekinetic grip. Commencing creation...
Magic bursted from the mirror and the screen began to shine in an brilliant array of dark and smoky colours. Again a arousing odour filled the air, with the taste of burning flesh under it. With glee in his eyes Eros watched, as the Corruptor poured the magic on a single point beneath, where it congregated and formed two hooves. Than followed the legs, the torso, arms and the head. First nothing more than muscles and bones. Then another wave of energy came and added skin, followed by hair. White fur with black stripes covering the Avatar from head to hoove. The mane styled itself into a mohawk, while on his flank appeared a tribal depiction of thorny vines. Eyes fluttered open, coldly blue and calculating. Between his leg a cock with the length of approx. 10 inches, complimented by big and heavy balls.
The Corruptor sputtered. Sparks of magic came from it and it was smoking lightly. Nevertheless it managed a final, small surge of magic that gave the newly created avatar an set of clothes consisting of tight fitting jeans, a black tanktop and a leatherjacket and a necklace of small wolvesteeth. Then the mirror stopped.

Eros catched the Corruptor with his magic before it could fall on the ground. The devices was hot to the touch, he could even feel it through his magic. The light in the glass had become dimmer, the device conserving energy now, but it was still functional. The God tipped on the avatar symbol and was greeted with a new menu.

Avatar

Name: Zexis
Gender: male
Race: Zebra
Traits: big cock (racial) + big cock (optional) = huge cock, big balls, Affinity to element (Plants), dominant

A light chuckle came from Eros as he read this, which quickly turned into outright laughter. "Magnificent! Truly fitting, indeed.", he roared, while he looked at the motionless Avatar. A few questions came from the Drifters. Eros saw them and calmed down to a suppressed giggle. "Oh, its nothing. But to think you would choose a zebra, out of all. Hehe, lets just say I find it very amusing, considering...." He halted and cleared his throat. He had himself under control again. "Well, it doesn´t matter. This is indeed a good champion and he will more than suffice for our agenda."
Eros stepped up to his creation and placed his hand on the zebras head. With the Avatar as comparison, one could now see how huge Eros actually was. He towered over the him, with the avatar barely reaching his shoulders.
"I will now give the finishing touches to his mind. Keep in mind, he will be a bit shallow, like a blank slate. But the more time he spends around other ponies and the longer and stronger he gets influenced by us, to more characterful he will become. Maybe he will turn into a macho, women-degrading sexmachine. Or a smoothtalker, a ladykiller. Or a powerhungry narcissist. It depends on which direction we guide him." A light glow sorrounded Eros´ hand and then the avatars head. When it faded a spark was seen in the latters eyes. With a groan he collapsed. Eros snorted.
"A little overload. So much information can be overwhelming, especially if just have been born. Don´t worry, once he is outside he will get better. For all he knows, he is just a zebra on a journey to Equestria to have a new life. I even gave him memorys of Zebrica and its customs. We would not want any unfortunate incidents, when it comes to that, right?"
His aura enveloped the zebra and lifted him in the air. "I will drop him off in the outskirts of ponyville. Your connection will remain with him, so you can keep an eye on him.", he spoke, but then paused akwardly, "...or whatever you use to sense your sorroundings." A question popped up on the screen.
"No, I can´t do that. That is your task. Once he is outside Tartarus, he is outside of my direct influence. The teleportation will alarm Ceberus and I will be busy keeping him of our trail. Once I accomplished that, I will contact you again. Until then, you are on your own."

Eros clasped his hand and concentrated on the teleportation spell. It wasn´t easy finding a way around the myriads of protection spells and seals of Tartarus and the Corruptor could only open him a small window. Still he had time for one last advice. "Find an ally as soon as possible. A place to stay and a job. Become part of their community and then you can corrupt them from within.", he said. The stress the spell meant for him could be clearly seen, with sweat pouring from his face and every fibre of mucle in his body strained. The dark-red aura around the zebra thickened. The aether began to roar in ethearel screams and the air began burst sporadically into flames. "Be aware of your dreams!", Eros bellowed, before he finished the spell.
The last that could be seen from him was as the following explosion flung him across the room and then three loud barks could be heard that shook the ceiling, with tremors caused by the tapping of humongous paws. Then everything disappeared into searing light...

On the Outskirts of Ponyville

Zexis awoke with a pounding pain in his head, as if a diamond dog had hit his brain with a hammer. He was lying on his back on the ground staring at sky, his limbs stretched from him. He had no idea how he got there and the pain didn´t really make it easier. He raised his right hand to shield his eyes from the blistering sun.
"Are you okay?", said a small voice from his right. He slowly turned his head. There, on the road stood three young mares, fillies almost. The one who asked the question, a young unicorn, with white fur and a pink two-toned, frilly mane, was standing right beside him with huge, green eyes, full of curiosity and worry. She wore a white, light summer dress, that gave her an aura of innocence and beauty. Immediatly arrived a new feeling in Zexis head. Beside the pain it was unfamiliar, but strangely appropriate.
To the right side of unicorn stood an earth-pony. She had a red mane that was tied with a big, red bow and yellow fur. Unlike her friend she kept a safe distance from the zebra, but she didn´looked to worried. She wore simple working jeans and t-shirt and was almost a head taller than her friend.
And the last of the trio was a pegasus. Unlike her friend she looked at Zexis with open suspiscion. Her purple hair was unkempt and stood in stark contrast to her orange fur. She wore sportshorts and a tanktop and was on rollerblades. Her wings seemed rather small, even for her age.

That all Zexis took in with a few glances. And by now he realised what that new feeling was, that he had. Lust. Before him stood three young, innocent fillies. And they were worried. For a moment a lecherous smile came over his face.
Then the pain came back and quelled any dark thoughts he had. He groaned again. The unicorn grew more worried. "Is everything okay? Do you need a doctor?", she said and took a few steps forward. "Don´t touch him, Sweetie Belle.", warned the pegasus from behind. Sweetie Belle shot her dissapproving glance, but seemed to hesitate. The earth-pony let out an exasperated sigh and walked towards Zexis. She offered him her hand. "Can you get up?"
Zexis looked at her and nodded carefully. He took her hand and let himself be helped on his hooves. "Sorry, hit my head pretty hard.", he said, while trying to keep the pain low. It seemed to work, as he was able to think clearer. His eyes wandered back to the girls. "I´m sorry, but...could you tell where I am?"
The three exchanged a look, then Sweetie Belle answered. "You´re just outside of Ponyville, mister.", she said, a little bit slow, as if she was afraid, that he couldn´t really understand her. Then her earth-pony friend asked: "Can you remember your name?" She seemed calm, as if it wasn´t the first time she had to deal with this.
Zexis thought a little. "My name is....Z...Zexis, yes. That was it. Zexis Chikelu", he said. The mentioning of his own name seemed to dim the pain a little to the point, where it only was a light pressure in the back of his mind. "And who are you?", he asked his helpers.
The unicorn smiled. "My name is Sweetie Belle, that is Apple Bloom and that one over there is Scootaloo.", she said pointing to her friends. "Don´t tell him my name!", protested Scootaloo who still hadn´t moved from her spot.
"Oh don´t be like that.", scold Sweetie Belle, before she got back to Zexis, "Don´t mind her, Mr. Chikelu. She has been like that since summer camp. Some zebra-bully. She will come around." Zexis glanced over to the pegasus and when he chatched her scornful eyes, he began to doubt that. But still, at least the other two seemed nice. Applebloom locked over him, looking for any injuries. "I think we should get you to the hospital. Just to be sure. Did you fell, or something?"
Zexis couldn´t remember, so he shrugged. "I don´t know. Maybe?" Applebloom lifted her eyebrows. A little silence fell over him.
"Well, whatever it is. I´m sure Nurse Redheart will be able to help you.", said Sweetie Belle, "Come on. We´ll show you the way to the hospital."
"I really don´t want to cause any trouble...", said Zexis, but Applebloom interrupted. "Don´t worry. Its on our way to the school anyway. We´ve been just picking up Scootaloo, so no biggie."

It seemed like any further discussion was pointless, so Zexis just gave in and followed the three fillies. Scotaloo raced in front, on her rollerblades, while Applebloom and Sweetie Belle were at his side. Especially the latter always looked in his direction, unable to hide her curiosity. "Is something the matter?", asked Zexis. A light blush creeped on Sweeties face and she akwardly spun a hairlock on her finger. "Well...ahem...its", she stammered.
"We don´t have many zebras in Ponyville, so you´re kind of exotic.", chimed Applebloom in. "And Zecora doesn´t count!?", asked Scotaloo over her shoulder. "Not many male zebra.", corrected Applebloom.
Zexis nodded. It was understandable. If a pony had walked into his home-village, he would have stared at them, too. Strange, now that he thought about it, the memory of his home seemed kinda foggy. Probably still the head-injury. At least he still remembered his father, that old lecher. Always with a new girl every month. By the Ancestor, had Zexis been jealous at times. At least until his father finally took him under his wing. That had been fun.
His train of thoughts were rudely interrupted, when Scotaloo turned around and stood in front of him. "Why are you here in Ponyville, anyway? You´re looking for something, or what?" Her tone was still a little bit hostile.
Zexis hesitated. Why was he here again? He knew why he left the village. Fucked the chiefs daughters silly and got caught. He was glad, that he hadn´t been killed for that. But why had he traveled to Equestria? And to Ponyville of all places?
The pain in his head got a little stronger...

Author's Note

Aaaaand here we have the first real chapter. Once again feel free to point out any mistakes, so I can correct them.
Now to the important stuff:

Zebra has won the poll. Zexis is a combination of the different suggestions of the Zebra-supporters. His character, as explained by Eros, will be infuenced by the decisions he makes. So keep that in mind. Also his memories will adjust as well. So if you turn him into a Sub or Masochist his (imaginary) past will change accordingly. The same goes for when he goes full Dom.

You can also now influence his decisions, as little voices in his head, by speaking to him. He will react to your advice (good and bad) and make his decisions accordingly. For example: Suggest that a job as baker in Ponyville would pay good and he will think, that he came to ponyville to be a baker.

The story will return to Eros for Q&A Sessions, where you can ask him about him, the past of Equestria his war with the Royal Sister and anything else story-related. I will announce it, when those sessions come up, and explain the rules.

The GreatDerpsby has asked what the readers are in this story, Eldritch Abominations, or humans, or whatever. I think Eros gave hint at that, but I want to be clear. It´s your decision, what you are in this story. Mostly because it doesn´t impact antyhing and is mainly for flavor and secondly because I like some good roleplay. So feel free to play as anything you want (within the boundaris of the Fic-Rules, of course).

Also, a cookie for anyone, who can tell me the reason behind Zexis surname.
Other than that I´m waiting for you feedback and wish you good luck. :raritywink:

First Steps

Theses two have the right idea about using the Everfree Forest as a cover with this guys affinity to plants he can simply say that he is here to collect and study some plants, he might even suggest wanting to try and cultivate some of them out of their natural environment for their medicinal purposes. But the Zecroa angle might be a bit premature we have only stated out and according to the archives she s is a very strong and clever individual with herbal/voodoo knowledge, might want to go for a softer target. Getting to know her and maybe finding some more information on alchemy is good idea but you might not want to try corrupting her till her stronger.

Now let me just double check are here we are. The flower trio, Rose luck, Daisy and Lilly might be a bit more our level all three are know to panic and pass out at extremely silly thing, often accompanied by saying the horror. This would suggest a weak will power and they might be attracted to a dominant personality like the one we have given our selves that could protect them. They also seem to own and run a flower business which if we could get a job at would provide both income and opportunity to corrupt them.

Also might help to swing by the library and town hall to get some information about the area both Ponyville and the Everfree Forest. Plus borrow some book on potion making or more advance types of potions if we already know the basic. Also try and make friend with the young dragon at the Library called Spike he a young and impressionable and if we can get him to look up to us as a male role model of sort he will be easier to corrupt. But you will have to be careful since he is Twilight Sparkle assistant and if she suspect what your up to we could have a very bad time.

I would also suggest be careful around a couple of other ponies for the following reasons.

Pinkie Pie is the Element of Laughter and has a super natural sense called Pinikie sense which might give her some warning of our true nature but do not ignore her completely as it may cause her become obsessive about becoming your friend which would be annoying. Greet here and be nice but be careful.

Secret agent Sweet Drops AKA Bon Bon has had experience dealing with creatures from Tartarus but is currently in forced retirement.

Applejack is the Element of Honesty and can sometimes know when some one is not being honest with her so try not to have a reason to lie to her at least directly.

That about all the time I have for now will do some more research and pull out more information from the Archives.

Best of Luck

From the Archives of Enlightenment Forbidden Division

I agree with this one. Zexis should try not to draw too much attention by the wrong ponies too quickly. Zecora's abilities are not well-known even to us. She is too dangerous for now. The Flower Trio, on the other hand... that has potential.

Moreover, our tool doesn't know much of potion-making yet. He is a novice. He needs time to learn, to study. But tending to flowers, he can probably do that as it is. He should try to make acquaintances with the three weak-willed flower peddlers. Get to know them, perhaps gain a job with them, be their strong, exotic new friend, and eye candy. They're mares, they'll fall into typical harem slut behaviour with the right leadership. When the time is right, Zexis will give it to them.

Give it to them hard.

The library—or castle, we are not sure which is there in this world yet—is another important place. Books to study and learn, but also a young dragon male to befriend. Spike can be more mature than his years suggest. He will be a valuable ally.

There are other males out there to keep in mind, other males to look for. Including the right matches for the three youngsters accompanying Zexis right now. Such sweet fillies deserve the right masters. We will keep our eyes open for potential candidates.

For now, Zexis needs to find shelter and support. Employment would be nice, but if he can get by without a job, that's fine too.

Zexis, don't be surprised if you happen to meet a hyperactive, hyper-friendly pink pony mare waiting for you. You've heard how nice and inviting Ponyville is. Go with the flow, be nice and polite and smile for her. She'll like it. Try to be nice and smile for all the ponies you meet, being friendly will help you immensely in this town. If any of them strike you as a little air-headed, perhaps even bimbo-ish, try not to show it. They're mares and fillies, that's just how they are. You know they need a strong male in their lives. And most stallions and colts in Ponyville, or Equestria for that matter, don't really know how to be strong in the right way. Once you have your life on track, you can always think about tips on how both sides can get exactly what they deserve. Later, though.

Well the first thing to do is give Zexis a reason to be in Ponyville. A simple reason like "I wanted to explore the world outside my tribe" should suffice. Get to know the CMC a bit and earn their trust, especially Scootaloo's. After going to the hospital, finding a house and job is priority so ask around for help. Somewhere far away from prying eyes but close enough to town should be good. Don't forget Zexis, no funny business 'till AFTER you get to know every and earn their trust. Be subtle in any flirting.

"Well, what is it? You´re gonna answer, or what?"
The question yanked Zexis out of his thoughts and back into reality. He blinked a few times irritated, then looked down on the cheeky pegasus, who watched him with sceptic glare. What did he wanted to say? Ah, yes.
"What I want in Ponyville?", he asked with, what he hoped, a charming smile, "Well, I just wanted to see other place than just my home. And I heard that Ponyville is good place to settle down. Yeah, to settle down, get job, a bitc - I mean, wife, and so forth, you know?"

Sootaloo looked even more suspicious and opened her mouth to say something, when she was - thankfully - interrupted by Sweetie Belle. "That sounds lovely! It´s nice to get new neighbours.", she said with a light crack in her voice, which made her even more adorable, while she clapped her hands in excitement. Man, at least she was nice. "Do you know where you will go?"

This time Zexis didn´t hesitated. It was like the answer was already lying on his tongue. "I will probably do something with Botany. You know, like a herbalist. Do you know someone like that in town?", he asked. It would be good if he could start an apprenticeship as early as possible. Heck, if he was lucky his boss would be a mare! That could lead to a lot of fun. Although he wasn´t sure, if the ponies here were so openminded. They sure wore a lot more clothes, than he was used to back home.

It was Applebloom, who answered. "Well, I wouldn´t call them herbalist, but the flower-girls have a shop, that sells most of that stuff, like, you know, flowers. And when something special is needed, most ponies go to Zecora. She lives in the Everfree." She gestured towards the big looming forest behind them. The trees reminded Zexis of the jungle AlwaysNight, just a little bit smaller. But the barely contained magic could be felt. That probably meant a lot of strange and magical plants and seeds in the forest. Which was nice. At least something familiar.

"Applebloom is Zecoras apprentice, you know?", said Sweetie Belle, "So, we usually go to her with our request and she brings them to her hut."

"I´m not an apprentice, Sweetie. Not yet, anyway", said Applebloom, with a undertone of disappointment.

"Oh, come on! That is practically official! Why is she letting you wait? It´s been two years already."

"I don´t know. But Zecora hasn´t said anything, so I won´t pressure her."

Now Scootaloo got into the discussion. "You know, what I think? I think, she gonna let you wait forever. You remember, when you asked her the first time? She looked like you had hit her in the gut."

Applebloomed scowled. "She has her reasons. And I will prove myself, sooner or later."

With that, it was over. The pegasus just shrugged and zipped back to the front, while Sweetie Belle and Applebloom walked in silence. Zexis, now that the attention was away from him for a moment, took the time, to take a closer look on these three young fillies.
Sweetie Belle was the definition of innocent beauty. She was petite and small and carried herself with the ease of someone, who never had to work hard in their life. Her breast were just developing, but it was clear, that as an adult, she would be an absolut blower!
Applebloom on the other hand was far more developed in the physical sense. The biggest of the three, one could see, that she had spent her whole life working the field. Her stride was confident and she had a good definition of muscles. But she still had something filly-like on her, mainly because of her bow. Or was it something else? Either way, both she and Sweetie Belle triggered in Zexis desire. The wish to take them, teach them the pleasures of the flesh and shatter that innocence, to replace with something far more fitting.
Then his eyes went to Scootaloos. She was a different case. Unlike her friends, there wasn´t so much innocence surrounding her, as it was more of a barrier. Some social shield she held up, against those she didn´t trust. That in combination with her lithe, well trained body, A-cups and her nice, perky ass, gave zexis the impression that this was a girl, who believed herself to be daredevil. In control. Wether that was true or not, remained to be seen. Personally he liked his bitches on the ground to his hooves. Sometimes even riding him, when he was in the mood for that. But usually he just loved to pound them into oblivion. To reduce them to a quivering mess, who couldn´t live without the cock of strong male. To shatter their pride and strength and show them how weak in comparison to him they really were. That were nothing but sluts, born to be fucked and bred...

"Aaaand we´re there!", said Sweetie Belle. Again Zexis blinked in confusion. Already? He had seemed to have a been little bit to deep in thought. But it was true. Before them stood the clinic. When he looked around, he could see, that they apparently crossed the outer part of the town to get here. Damn, he really needed to be attentive! Whenever he thought about mares, he kinda lost himself. Well, it could have been worse. He could have walked into a lamp post. Or missed the gorgeous nurse, that sat on her frontdesk in the waiting room. With a white coat, pink mane styled in a neat bun and some some huge DD-cup tits, that seemed to be barely contained by her uniform. The latter however was disappointly concealing, covering her legs and providing little eyecandy. Almost prude in its practicality. But still, some piece of mare. Hellooooo, nurse!, thought Zexis and again a lecherous smile creeped over his face.

"Well, with that we´re off!", said Scootaloo and without waiting for a reply, darted off. Applebloom shook her head, winked at Zexis and followed her.

"I hope you settle in well.", said Sweetie Belle smiling.

Zexis nodded in aggreement. "Where can I meet you again?", he asked. Sweetie Belle looked at him confused. "I mean, to thank you....properly. For helping me.", he clarified. Normally he would be a little more assertive. But something told him, that wouldn´t be appreciated in Equestria.

"Oh no, there is no need to thank us. It was a pleasure.", said the young unicorn. Then, with a look to Scootaloo, she added: "Well, for most of us."

Zexis smiled, in, what he hoped, a polite fashion. "But I insist on it. My honor demands it." Bullshit. Honor had nothing to with getting a mare on his dick! But Sweetie Belle seemed like the type for such pathos.

And low and behold, she blushed! "Well...if you insist, then...."

"Hey, Sweetie Belle! What are you waiting for. School is about to start!" Damn it! Zexis really began to hate that pegasus-bitch!

Sweetie jumped a little upon the interruption. She looked to her friend who tapped her hoof impatiently. "I....am coming back to that.", she said hastily, befor she turned around and walked off. Leaving Zexis alone.

Grumbling he turned around and walked into the nurse office. The mare at the frontdesk looked up from her notes. "Good day, what can I do for you?" You can get to your knees, and give me a fucking blowjob, so I don´t rape some small pegasus in broad daylight., thought Zexis, but again he held himself back. The impuls was there, but a stronger force in his head told him to remain calm and cautious. This was not Zebrica and he was no longer the son of a witchdoctor. Although a little bit flirting shouldn´t hurt...

"Yeah, my name is Zexis. I....uhm...hit my head while ago and now everything is kinda fuzzy. So, could I get a checkup, please?", he asked instead, with a charming smile, "A personal one, if its possible." He leaned himself forward, to get better look down the nurses cleavage. Damn, those were some hooters!

The mare seemed to appraise him a little bit. Then she noticed, where is eyes went and her face grew hard. "Are you great pain?", she asked cold.

"Well, no..."

"Still feeling dizzy?"

"Not exactly, but..."

"Any external injuries?"

"Not that I know of,..."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"No, but maybe..."

She took out a file-card, scribbled something down on it and shoved it against his chest. "Next date is thursday, next week. Now please, I got other patients waiting."

Zexis looked around in the empty waiting room. He turned around to the nurse again. "Listen, did I piss you off, baby?"

Again he was met with a cold stare. The mare clicked her tongue, stacked her papers and stood up. "I don´t know from where you are, Mister Zexis. But in Equestria it is considered rude to stare at someponies breast. And even more so, when you call them baby", she said and walked towards a door, that lead to the rest of the clinic. Then she glanced over her shoulder. "And you should also do something about your....lower companion." With that she opened the door and slammed it shut behind her.

Zexis looked down and groaned. Through his tight jeans, he sported a prominent erection.

...

"Fucking bitches!", hissed the young zebra, while jacked off in a dark, secluded alley. Was every pony like those girls? If so, then his life in Equestria would prove more frustrating, than he tought. If this were like Zebrica this nurse would be already lying on the floor, begging for the chance to be fucked by him! Heck, if that pegasus-bitch named Scootaloo hadn´t butted in, he probably would have had a date with Sweetie Belle. Young, naiv and innocent. Was there a better filly to break?
Furiosly he masturbated, until finally, with a violent spurt, his erection died off.

Zexis took a deep breath. He needed to re-strategize. Things worked differently in Equestria. And apparently just being nice wouldn´t cut for these ponies. Now it was the question, wether Zexis would adapt to their customs or he could bring them to accept his.

A scream outside the alley grabbed his attention. "What do you mean, he is sick?", yelled red-haired mare.

"I mean, that Caramel is sick! As in both legs broken-sick! Apparently while trying help Princess Twilight reorganize the library.", screamed a pink earth-pony with a lily in the hair.

"But we need him! The summer-season is about to hit and without an added pair of hands...." That came from a green-maned mare. All three were standing in front of flowershop. Around them crates and basket with new plants and to the side dozens of shipments. When Zexis came out of the alley, all three broke in tears and fell to the ground.

"The horror! THE HORROR!" "What did we do to deserve this!" "By Celestia, we are DOOMED!"

The sight of three mares writhing on the ground would be arousing for Zexis at any other time of day. But the absurdity of the situation let him just stare dumbfounded. Then a thought, an idea, lit up in his mind and again a smile creeped on his face. His clapped his hands. "My dear ladies, I couldn´t help myself but seeing your...predicament. And I think I my be able to help...."

...

A few hours and several tissues later, Zexis layed on his bed in small room above the Ponyville-Flowershop. Roseluck, Lily and Daisy had been thankfully eager to accept any help they could get and when Zexis revealed that he had already some skills, when it came to the treatment of plants, it became even easier. Now he would be officially begin his work as Flower-assistant tomorrow. The next few days he would explore Ponyville and get to know its inhabitants. This would help him figuring out where the limits were in this society were...and who would be willing to talk to him. Today he had gotten a wide variety of welcomings. From Sweetie Belles curiosity, to Scootaloos and the Nurses hostility. Maybe he could go to Zecora. Or to that huge castle on other side of the town. Seeing this princess the flower-trio had been talking about.
And when he was settled, he could start. With changing Equestria....

Author's Note

And again, hope that chapter comes off well. I am currently writing in the middle of the night and i´m tiiiiiired. :applejackconfused:

I will probably put the new relationships together with the rules of this fic in a seperated chapter, so ist easly accesible for everyone. Will of course be reguraly updated.

I will also not write Appleblooms and Applejack accent. Im struggling with my grammar enough already, I don´t think i could manage their countryism. The same goes for Zecoras rhyming. She will probably get a lot of lines in this fic and attempting her speechpattern, honestly, would break my head, if I were to try this. You will just have to imagine it yourself, sorry.

Other than that, keep suggesting what the next steps will be. I have hinted on what general idea will be, what seemed to be the general consesus, but maybe one of you got a better idea. Feel free, to tell me about it in the comments.

And now I´m going to sleep. See ya!

Delivery in the Morning

....BZZZT....CLICK!

Right it looks like we have some income and some easy bitches to play with but it is also clear that we have to keep our libido in check for now any way.

I reckon that Daisy should be you first target she might have a little bit stronger will but her lust is quite high making her eager to get straight to business. But make sure you aren't seen by the other at least not until you fuck each one individually any way and got them all a bit more corrupted not to sure how they react if they think your just a player.

You also need to start looking for some more permanent housing for yourself. As much as these bitches should be on their knees and taking care of your every need you know that the ponies around here don't take kindly to that line of thinking. I also recommenced that this place has a basement so you can set it up a secure and sound proof area to help break the more stubborn mined mares in.

As for place to go to first I still would recommend the Castle/Library both for more information and making friends with the young dragon there. After that go to this Zercora place but be careful not to offend her and see if you can find the reason she not taking Applebloom as an apprentice if it a cultural reason she might be more will to talk to a fellow zebra about it and you can gain some trust.

Finally keep an eye out for a chance to talk to Sweetie Belle while she is alone. Do not try to have your way with her just yet but gain her trust and find out as much as you can about her try to make her have crush on you and when you get your own place invite her over and begin her corruption. But once again be careful of her pegasus friend she might be some one who we will have to pound into submission.

That it for now

A blue light flickers to life in a far flung corner of the magma filled chamber. It's blue light clashing harshly against the angry orange of the magma around it. A hulking mass of magma shifts across the chamber in apparent surprise at the new source of light. The once dormant blob of heat incarnate gradually makes its way to the flickering blue light, its form shifting into something more humanoid in shape. A pair of small white flames flashed to life on the beast's head as it looked down at the small flame. A voice like gravel in a blender thundered forth in mild amusement

"Well isn't this surprising, and here I thought I'd die of old age before the brothers would finally return to..." One of the beast's 'eyes' for lack of a better term rises as he seems to process some information apparently hidden in the flames.

"So the Search Light found a new corrupter? Interesting. Hmm..." The magma creatures eyes narrowed as he stroked his chin seemingly reading more information.

"I never was much a fan of you lust daemons, too messy for my tastes." The creature huffed out a jet of super heater steam in annoyance.

"But if I must participate in your little game to pass enough time for those two to stop fondling each other long enough to fix their damned communication arrays then so be it. I'll turn this 'champion' of yours into something worthy of a Scourge of the Ethereal."

"ZEXIS!" The apparent 'Scourge of the Ethereal' shouted as if though sheer volume he would be heard clearly.

"TEMPER YOUR FLAME YOU MISERABLE LITTLE SPARK! YOU ARE IN NO PLACE TO TRY AND DRAW SO MUCH ATTENTION TO YOURSELF BY BEING SO BLATANT WITH YOUR PLANS! IF THAT PATHETIC LITTLE CANDLE YOU CALL A BAG OF FLESH IS DISCOVERED YOU WOULD BE SNUFFED OUT IN AN INSTANT BY THE TIDE OF OBLIVION! LAY LOW! ACT NATURAL! BE SUBTLE! AND FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS BURNING KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS LONG ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY SEDUCE SOMEONE YOU IMBECILE! HEED MY WORDS AND YOU WILL SURLY BURN A PATH TO VICTORY!"

"SO DECLARES THE SCOURGE OF THE ETHEREAL, WARDEN OF THE FIRST FLAME, AND MASTER CHEF EXTRAORDINAIRE! PYRO THE RED!"

Young Scootaloo has an impressive corruption score. She's hiding something.

Zexis, despite how much it may irk you... the experience with Nurse Redheart—the busty one you ogled—taught you a valuable lesson:

Be. More. Subtle.

You're in Ponyville now. Equestria, not your old home. Even the son of a witchdoctor like you knows how guests should show some courtesy, no? Right now, you are the guest. Act like it. Until you are somewhat accepted, try to keep it together.

Master yourself before you master anypony else. You're a strong, smart stallion, are you not? Act like it! Don't squander this opportunity just because you feel a little miffed. Remember, this place is different. Here, mares like Redhear think they should wear more than a few chains and bangles and younger mares like the Crusaders don't even have any ownership markings on them! Equestria is backwards like that.

For now, you will do your best to make a good impression. Work with the Flower Trio. Learn about them. Learn about any relationships they might have. Try to get in on some gossip. You know, Zexis, that a lot of what's wrong with Equestria is simply because of their weird ideas about how love and relationships work. If you keep your ears open, you might find out who has the most problems in town. Those couples will need your help the most.

A roosters scream woke Zexis up. Blinking the sleep away he looked outside. Thankfully it was still early morning, so he hadn´t overslept. Yesterday had been confusing and difficult, yes, but one shouldn´t make a bad impression on the first day of work. And Zexis wanted to make a good impression. He had a lot of time in the evening to think about, how he should approach the problem of equestrian prudeness and their "distaste" for zebrican charme. He came to the conclusion, that maybe he had been to forceful. Sure, there was nothing wrong with wanting a good fuck, but the rules here were different. Equestria was martriachal society, that much he knew by now. It was ruled by princesses and it seemed like their were more mares around than stallions. The exact opposite of Zebrica. So, of course his views were not shared. Not something that was unfixable, but right know he was still the newcomer. The stranger. He knew little about the ponies in this town, their problems and desires and he had no allies. That needed to change.
Because of that, he made a outline of a plan yesterday. After his shift, he would go first to townhall. There he would look for some real estate. Currently he was sleeping in a small room over the flowershop, that the trio lend him to crash. Nothing more than a closet. He needed something better. And he needed to know, how much it would cost him. After that, he would make a trip to the library, which apparently was part of the castle, so that was a thing. He would get as much literature about equestrian society as possible, after all information was power. And speaking of information, the flower-trio seemed like awfully gossipy sort of mares. He would take the opportunity and listen in on some of the exploits of other ponies in the town.

With that in mind Zexis stood up and put his clothes on.

"Have you heard about it?"

"About what?" Roseluck paused in her arrangment of a bouque.

"About the incident of this years summer camp, of course? It´s all everpony talks about.", said Daisy, while peeking over from the storage room. Zexis himself was also in there and unpacking the new deliverys. The mares made him into the Heavy today, in which he complied for now. His ears perked up. "I heard there had been a dreadful fallout between Scootaloo and the zebra-colt from Baltimare. There had to pry her away from him. Something about him touching her. A clear overreaction, if you ask me."

Roseluck rolled her eyes. "Oh please, Daisy. Did you get that from Dirt Hoof? That guy is a creep. Not a very reliable source."

"I beg to differ! First of all its Bird Hoof and he is a very upstanding stallion. Just a little bit...strange, thats all."

"Yeah, but thats only, because you don´t have the bad luck being around him all the time. Dinky lived with him, before she was adopted, remember? And she has very bad memories from him. The way he looks at the fillies. Honestly, I don´t understand why that...creep is the caretaker of the orphanage." Roseluck shivered with disgust. Zexis however took that snipbit and filed it in his mind away for later.

The doorbell rang and Lily came in. "Do any of you know what a serpenlessa florencia is?", she asked the others. Roseluck shook her head, while Daisy just asked: "Why do you ask?"

"Well, Spike just came along and said that he needs them soon. Apparently Zecora has run out her stock and Princess Twilight is in a little bit of a fit because that. Some kind of project."

Again Roseluck shivered. This time out of fear. "Oh dear. What now? Do you think she come after us?" Zexis raised his eyebrows. It seemed like a new panic-attack was incoming.

"Maybe she will be angry at our failure. Oh my, she will probably sue us! With the best lawyers of Canterlot!", hyperventilated Daisy.

"We will be ruined!" With dramatic cry, Lily fell on convenient placed chair.

Zexis just sighed and put the crate down he had in his hands. "Serpenlessa florencia, also know as Fake Snake Flower. Grows mostly on outskirt of wild surges of magic and craters. Pretends to be a dangerous and hardy plant, but is suprisingly delicate. Ingredient for advanced Insomniac cures.", he citated calm. The three mares stared at him. He threw them a questioning glance. "What?"

On the outskirts of the Everfree

"You are an alchemist!?" Zexis flinched at the incredoulus tone that Daisy employed in her voice. They were walking towards the Everfree, to get the Fake Snakes. Roseluck and Lily stayed behind, to look after the shop.

"No, I´m not. My father was. I just learned from him the basics and a little bit more. Nothing that could support me.", he said. It was true. He knew nothing more than a few remedies and antidotes, but nothing really useful, like aphrosidiacs and the like. His father always kept that from him. Until you are ready, he had said. Ready my ass!, thought Zexis, You were just afraid I would steal you the bitches! He looked at Daisy again. "Why are you so suprised?"

The mare immediatly looked away, as if he had caught with her pants down - not that he would mind - and fidgeted with her hair. "Well...it´s just...I mean...Ugh!", she groaned, before looking apologetic at Zexis. "I´m sorry, there is no better way for me to put this: I always thought zebra stallion were, you know, brutes. Warriors, on the good side, but mostly thugs. Don´t get me wrong, you´re clearly not like that. Its just...that is the impression we have from your kind. So, to hear, that they also have more sophisticated professions, was a little bit suprising."

Zexis grinded his teeth. Fucking speciesists! He would show his "Sophistication"! Lying on the ground sqeualing like a pig would clean their racist perspective very fast! Those fucking....

Zexis, what did I say about being SUBTLE?!?! Openly staring and flirting with a woman is NOT subtle or appreciated. Honestly, who gave him his personality 'cause they just messed up and now it'll be harder to get Redheart. Okay, I'm calm now. Zexis, you need to be nicer to mares. They are not just toys for your entertainment. After a few days of settling in you better apologize. Tell her that in your tribe, flirting was a way of being nice and you weren't trying to offend her. NO funny business 'till after they trust you well enough. *sighs* Whose idea was it to make him so dominant? I actually want him to care about females. He should have been given the intelligent trait or something nicer.

Immediatly he stopped his previous train of thoughts. Calm down, he said to himself. Otherwise there would be repeat from yesterday at the clinic. She clearly didn´t mean it that way. He needed to remain social, even if it vexed him.

Daisy looked worried. Clearly uncomfortable. "I hope I didn´t insulted you, or anything?" She leaned forward. Her supple breast visible, even through her blue sweater.

Which didn´t make things easier for Zexis, as everything in him screamed for a dirty one-liner. But he held himself back and forced a smile on his face. "No, its okay. Just....you clearly don´t have that problem with Zecora, am I right?"

Daisy laughed out. "Oh, of course not. Sure, at the beginning it was a little bit scary, but she is very nice. Also she is a mare, so there won´t be any funny business with her potions."

Zexis clenched his fist and bit on his tongue do prevent a toxic remark. It was okay. This was Equestria. Mares were in charge here. That behaviour was normal for them. Still, he right now wished for nothing more, than to take that bitch and fuck any hipocrisy out of her. Or to at least find that fucking plant, already.

At least the latter wish would be granted to him, as a few minutes later, Zexis could feel a light surge of magic in the air. He motioned Daisy with him and turned to the left. They walked at the edge of the forest for another five minutes, before they reached a small array of scaly plants, wriggling themselves over a glowing stone. They had dangerous looking thornes on them and looked pretty intimidating. Daisys reached into her pockets, to get the gloves, but Zexis just strolled forward and grabbed a half dozen of the Fake Snakes. The mare gave startled "Eep!", from her mouth, but as nothing happened, she relaxed.

Zexis grinned confident. "They are harmless. The thorns are just for show. Look, they are soft.", he said and showed her his unharmed hand. "Be careful with roots. Just dont touch the stone, and you will be fine."

Daisy looked at him with newfound admiration. "How did you know where to find them?", she asked, while she kneed down to dig out the plants.

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. "We Zebras have stronger affinity to nature than other races. You ponies have special talents, right? It´s like that, just with the elements. I, for example, have a talent for plants and flowers. I know where they are, what they like, which are dangerous and so forth. It´s like some kind of sixth sense." He took out the now freed flowers and put them in the basket he carried with him. Than, on a whim, he took a little Daisy-flower that grew nearby and gave it to Daisy, with a light theatrical bow. "For you, my lady."

Daisy blushed immediatly and giggled embarrassed. "Oh, that wasn´t necessary." She took the flower anyway. "But, thank you. You really are different from the rest."

Oh, bitch. If you only knew. But Zexis smiled instead. "Just see it as thank you for the job. And your honesty." The last part he meant slightly ironic, but Daisy didn´t hear that and instead blushed even stronger. The young stallion shouldered the basket and layed his hand on her shoulder. "I´m gonna deliver those Fake Snakes to the castle, so you don´t have to go, okay?"

"You don´t mind?", asked Daisy. She seemed not to see the hand or didn´t care.

Zexis shrugged. "I was planning to going there anyway, so what harm is there on taking this with me?"

She didnt seem to have an answer for that and instead just walked with back. This time however, she was little bit quieter and still blushing.

Before the Castle

The Castle was huuuuuge. And misplaced.

Zexis scratched his head, while he looked up to the crystalline structure. It certainly was impressive in scale and design. Clearly the home of a princess. But, what was it doing in a small, rural town? Shouldn´t it be like in Canterlot, or so? It appearance at least clashed heavily with rest of Ponyville.
But well, a delivery was a delivery. And princess was a princess. So who was he to judge.

The door didn´t seem to have a bell of sorts, so Zexis just knocked. He was suprised to hear his knocking hall deep and loud, as if he had been hitting the door with a sledgehammer. And sure enough, a few seconds later it opened.

Before him stood a small dragon, barely reaching to his hips, looking up to him with a sour face. He had big bags under his eyes. "I am sorry, but Princess Twilight doesn´t receives any foreign dignitaries tonight. If you come because of a friendship problem, make an appoinment.", he said and began to close the door again.

Zexis needed to hurry to get a hoof between the doorwings. "I´m sorry, but I´m here for the delivery of the serpenlessa florencia ordered from the Flower-Shop. I´m Zexis?", he said, hoping the name would ring a bell.

It seemed to catch the dragons attention, as he stopped in his tracks and looked at Zexis again. Then he slapped himself slightly and shook his head. "Oh, of course, you are the new one. Roseluck mentioned you. Sorry, had a few rough weeks. Come on in. I am Spike, by the way" He gestured Zexis inside.

The castle interior was much darker than the outside, although that was mostly because of the lack of lighting. The hallway was so huge, that the few lightcrystalls here or there couldn´t hope to provide enough illumination. They walked down a few corridors before they came to a crossing. Spike lead him to path that went down to the basement. "I´m sorry, I didn´t catch your name the first time, Mr...."

"Zexis Chikelu. Although just Zexis is fine."

"Alright. Well, let me just take the flowe.." Spike didn´t came far, because he was loudly interrupted by banging doors, which flew open by a strong telecinetic burst.

"Spike! Do you have the ingredients?", came it from the door.

Zexis eyes bulged. Before him stood a goddess in flesh! The purple unicorn - no, she had wings - alicorn was standing in nothing more than her pyjamas and a labcoat. Her sleepwear seemed several sizes to small and could barely contain her hourglass figure, ample hips and heart-shaped butt. Her D-cup breast pressed against her shirt and her nipples perked through the fabric.

The alicorns horn sparked up and she wrenched the basket out of Zexis hands, took the flowers out and threw the basket away. "Perfect! Sleep, here I come!", she said, before turning around - look at that ass! - and slamming the doors shut.

Spike frowned and a dark scowl deepened his face. "Thank you, Spike. Don´t worry, Spike I will pay him. You can go to sleep now.", he grumbled frustrated under his breath, before looking up to Zexis. "Ehm, you´re drooling Mr. Zexis."

The Zebra blinked two times, before he returned to reality. Shit, he had been drifting off again. Immediatly he wiped the spit away. "Oh, I´m so sorry..I..."

"No no, I should be apologizing. Twilight tends to forget proper form, when she is science-ing. And she hasn´t bothered adjusting her clothes, since her ascension." Spike shook his head disapprovingly.

Zexis blinked again and blurted out. "Fuck, I´m just glad, that at least somepony in this town doesn´t hide her body. Reminds me of home." Fuck, he did it again! Next time he really would need to tie his tongue.

However unexpectedly Spike began to laugh. "Seriously?", he giggled, as if Zexis had just made a good joke. "Your mares are running around in pyjamas?"

That image was indeed a little bit funny. And the relief, that the dragon didn´t seemd to be insulted, made it easier for the zebra to smile. "Oh, yes. Nightgown and everything.", he jested. But he turned serious. He had the feeling, like he had just hit a small bullseye on the dragon. "But seriously, since I´ve come here, its been like I walked into sweatshirt-shop. Hell of a cultureshock."

Spike nodded. "Tell me about it. I grew up here, and I´m still not used to it. Doesn´t help when puberty in your race comes with growthspurts and violent outbreaks. And that in combination of being around the one mare, who doesn´t realizes, when she walks into you in the bathroom butt-naked...." He hesitated and looked up to Zexis, as if he was afraid of his reaction. But the stallion just nodded understandingly.

"That seems rough. So, what are you doing?"

The dragon shrugged his shoulders. "Don´t know. I just hold myself back. I would like to go the dragonlands, where I could get this behind me without offending anypony, but well...someone has keep the Princess of Friendship grounded.", he said with a look back to the doors. Then he blushed and scratched his head. "Aw man, I really should not be talking about this. Can we change the subject?"

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. If it were going after him, he would pry deeper. But Spike would probably wall off, at that point. Still, it was nice to hear, that he wasn´t the only one, who had problems adapting. Maybe he could use that as an advantage at a later point. "Sure, I also wanted to visit the library. You know, getting some books about Equestria and such stuff."

Spike nodded, relieved. "Sure thing, I lead you there."

"Oh, and I also need to get payed."

The dragon groaned.

Author's Note

Damn, I am on fire!

As you probably guessed by now, I will not take every suggestion into consideration. Don´t worry, I read them all,. But not every single one is going to make into the story. So how can improve your chances to get picked?
Well, as you can see, good Roleplay is good way to catch my eye. But it isn´t mandatory. Mostly its just, which suggestion make the most sense and fit in the current situation. Just keep churning them out and sooner or later you´re gonna hit a bullseye.
So, dont feel discouraged. I am thankful for every suggestion and for every comment. :raritywink:

Books and Recipes

I'm very impressed by your restraint Zelix. It must have been difficult for you to talk Daisy than to make her your bitch.

You need to continue to be subtle, but don't lose track of your goal. Your goal is to corrupt ponyville. In order to do that you need to do is to see about getting more possible stallions to bring to your side. There must be at least 1 other stallion that wants to fuck some mares but can't. You need to find him and recruit him.

You also need to start testing your powers. I don't know if you know, but try helping some plants grow, do some research about them in the library. Ask Spike for help. You can talk to him more about the zebra women and what they wear. See how he reacts to that.

Now a good way to corrupt and flirt is the indirect naked approach. Most mares don't care if you are without a shirt if you have a decent body and are doing hard work. If you care some heavy crate around in the shop without a shirt, I bet a least one mare will be looking. Also another way for you to flirt is to pose for art. If you do one of those things mares are going to look at you and start lusting for you.

The big advantage you have over other stallions is the size of your cock. Use that. Certaintly some mares interest would peak if they knew about the size of the tool your carrying.

Continue establishing yourself in the town, don't stare to much at mares and START TESTING YOUR POWERS!!!

Zexis, it might be an idea if you learned how to mutate plants through alchemy or by other means, like a unicorn slave. You could do quite a few things with that.

Also a bit of respect would probably help as well. Not all females are to be made slaves, some are more useful as allies and some are probably even better suited to be our puppet then you.

Learn who might be a dominant as well be it male or female and make them your allies. Especially if they are powerful or influential. A dominant female is also be useful to corrupt the more submissive males, unless you want to be the one who fucks the submissive stallions.

Lastly, patience is a virtue even for the wicked. Those who can be patient when needed will be able to act on logic and not on what you dick wants you to do. This will get you a lot more in the long run.

Also if you fail us I will personally insure that you will end up as a plaything Slaanesh and I assure you the prince of pleasure and lord of excess doesn’t provide the sort of pleasure and excess you desire. Unless you are a masochist that likes to be tortured until the end of time or until Slaanesh dies. Whichever comes first.

Spike and Zexis walked down another long hallway, this time in the upper levels of the castle. They made strong left and crossed what seemed to be a number of living rooms. That brought a question to Zexis mind. "How do keep all of this clean?", he asked, "I mean, I don´t see any maids or cleaning personal."

Spike chuckled. "Thats because we don´t need them. The castle keeps itself clean. Twilight says it reacts to its owner, so when she sees some dirt or washes herself, the castles gets rid off any impurities. Don´t ask me how. Something to do with Tree of Harmony."

"The Tree of Harmony?"

"Oh, thats right. You probably don´t know about this. Its....basically like some sort of really powerful magical tree, somewhere in the Everfree. Its the origin of the Elements of Harmony and keeps Equestria nice and peaceful.", explained the dragon.

Somehow a feeling of dread washed over Zexis. He didn´t know why, but he somehow knew, this Tree was an enemy. Something in him told him, it would not react kindly to his existence. Strange, but this voice was awfully persuasive.

"Of course, the downside is, that everthing the castle doesn´t take care of, because a certain princess doesn´t cares about that, falls to me. Like receiving visitors, and the like." Spike hadn´t seen the fear in Zexis face and had a little painful smile on his face. "But hey, thats what an Nr.1 Assistant is for, right?"

Zexis again had the feeling he had reached a sore point, but this time he decided to push it. "If you are her assistant, then why are not helping with her experiment?"

Bullseye! Spikes cheery demeanor dropped instantly and frustation filled his eyes. "Thats because..."

"SPIKE!" For a second time the little dragon was interrupted today. This time it was a unicorn, who was storming out of, what Zexis realized was, the libray. This mare had light pink fur, with a violet mane, that had turquoise stripes in it. She was dressed in a labcoat, with a black overall under it and jeans. There were some light singes on her mane, as if she just put out a fire. Her eyes glimmed angry. "Where is Auroras Planar Spellwork and Interdimensional Tracking?", she said furiosly, "I told you, I need it before we can move on the next stage!"

Spike matched her glare with look of pure defiance. "And I told you, that any book of the classification D are in the sealed wing. And we both know, I am not permitted there! Also, hello Starlight." His voice was steeped with barely held back hostility.

The unicorn namend Starlight, threw her hands exasperated in the air. "Fine, I find it myself.", she said, turned around and walked off, but before muttering a "Useless dragon!"

Spike himself was fuming, which was evident by the little smokecloud coming out of his nostrils. Zexis waited for the dragon to say something, but the silence became quickly akward. He coughed. "I take it, that this is the reason?", he asked carefully.

The dragon blinked, as if he had forgotten Zexis was there and looked up. He sighed and shook his head. "Sorry for that. You shouldn´t have seen that.", he said, his voice weary, "That was Starlight Glimmer. Twilights new assistant and pupil in friendship and as you can see, she needs to learn a lot." With these words and defeated tone of voice, Spike lead Zexis into the library.

The young zebra had never seen so many books in one place. The shelves were literally reaching up to the ceiling and every free centimeter was occupied by books. There were tables propped up in the middle, although nobody was sitting there, and a little bit further beyond, Zexis could see, that the shelves were still going on, until they could no longer be seen. A proud smile had crept on Spikes face, as he saw the stunned look on the zebras face. "Impressive, huh?", he grinned, "They are all neatly organized - my work - on thematic, date and writer. Just tell me what you need and I get it for you."

Zexis needed a few second to find his composure and remind himself what books he actually wanted. "Oh....yes, ehm, I would like some basics on equestrian culture and history." He said, still looking around. What knowledge he could find here. Maybe even some books about alchemy? Dark secrets and spells? Then he noticed a dim lit section, seperated from the rest of the hall. "Whats there?"

Spike was busy writing down what Zexis wanted, but then looked up. "Oh, thats the Sealed Wing. Any books Twilight deems too dangerous for the public, or anyone else for that matter, are stored there. Other than her, the Princesses and Starlight, nobody is permitted.", he said in an almost casual tone. Apperantly it was a question he was asked often. Then he smacked his tongue. "Alright, I will get you your books and the payment. Will take a few minutes, so take the time and look around." With that he walked off into the deeps of the hall.

"...there's been countless mention of books, PUBLIC books, that contain all manner of mind control based spells. Such could prove useful if you learned how to adapt them to your zebra magics."

With a wave of his hand, the scenes changes to scenes showcasing a number of transformations, including a frog into an orange/frog hybrid, as ridiculous as that sounds.

"...and along with mental magics, there are countless physical ones as well."

It took Zexis less then a few second to go directly to the Sealed Wing. Forbidden knowledge was exactly what he craved, and needed for his ambitions. The mere possiblities began to let his cock stiffen. Maybe some spell of transformation, like gender change or enhancements. Or tipps on hypnosis. Fuck, maybe even dark magic!
As he came close, he could see, that this section of the library was indeed sealed off. Intricate spells and runes could be seen shifting in the air, preventing any entrance. Well, usually they would, but someone had opened up a portal into the interior. Zexis realized, that this must have been this Starlight mare. Such an opportunity could not be wasted!

Immediatly he stepped inside the dimly lit Wing and scoured the shelves. He knew, he had little time. Any moment, Spike or Starlight could return and then he would be in trouble. After he few seconds he reached a shelve with the description "Alchemy". His destination.
But before he could take time to read the booktitles, he heard steps coming from the other end of the hall. Spike was coming back! Without wasting any time, Zexis grabbed a random book from the lower rows and dashed out of the Sealed Wing.

He had luck. When Spike came into view, Zexis already sat on of the table pretending to be skimming through a book called Unnaturals. Something about Poison Joke or so.

"There you go. Equestria for Dummies and Summary of Euqine History. They should help you. And here is the money." With that he dropped two books and a pouch before Zexis eyes. "Don´t forget to return them after four weeks. If you want to keep them longer, just notify me, okay?"

Zexis thanked him and put the books in his basket, above the stolen one. Then he looked a the clock, which hanging on the wall. "I guess, I should be going."

Spike nodded. "Let me bring you to the door."

Again they walked through the endless hallways, when Zexis got an idea. "Now that I think about it. How much do you know about Zebrica?", he asked Spike.

The dragon raised quizzicaly an eyebrow. "Not much. Rather secluded country and Zecora doesn´t like to talk about it. Why?"

"Well, I just thought. Now that I am learning about Equestria and how to behave myself here...mabye I could tell you how its like in my homecountry. And you can tell me how its like living as dragon?" He let the question hang in the air. "See it as a kind of.....experience exchange."

Spike thought about it. He thought long. When they arrived at the door, Zexis thought he had gone too far, but then the dragon spoke: "That actually doesn´t sound so bad. Everyone only has those pre-forged opinions about your people, so it would be good to get a different viewpoint. Not today, though. You have a job to do and I need to re-organize the library. Again." He pulled out a little piece of paper and scribbled something down. "Meet me a Berry Punchs Pub on Saturday. Me and the guys usually meet there. I can introduce you to them."

Saturday was in three days. Zexis nodded. "Deal. Something I should keep in mind?"

"Just don´t say anything flirtatious about Fluttershy in front of Discord and you should be fine.", said Spike and winked him goodbye.

"Wait, what do you mean? Who is Discord?" But too late. Spike had already closed the door. Zexis now stood again alone.

While he was walking back to the Flowershop, he reached in the basket and pulled out the stolen book. It´s title was Magic Stones, Plants and other Curiosities. NSFW-Version. A quick skim seemed to indicate, that it was indeed a book about alchemy and that Zexis could actually read it, which was good. He would get over it in detail, when he was alone. Now he needed to finish his shift.

At the Flowershop

From what he gathered from the quick look, the book was a collection of receipes of rather....indecent character. It was an translation of an old tome written almost one thousand years ago. It had descriptions of various minerals, plants and other ingredrients, that could be used for nefarious, strangely enough almost exclusively, sexual purposes. In short it was exactly what Zexis needed. With this book in his hands he could start the first steps of bringing sexual and social enlightenment to this backwards society. Just the thought of it...mares in scantly clothes strutting down the street, hookers on every corner ready for a quick fuck. Gloryholes, Whorehouses, sexual punishments. Fuck, maybe even personal sexslaves. Zexis could feel his prick hardening.

He shaked his head. For now, he needed to remain cautious. He would start small, with the Flower-Trio, and would then look for allies. Spike was a good start, he just needed to get rid of some inhibitions. The meeting on Saturday would give Zexis the opportunity prodding the other stallions for weaknesses. Maybe he could, before that, look for that Bird Hoof and find out, what he was about.

Zexis reached the Flowershop. Without hesitation he opened the door. "I´m back.", he said, smiling.

He was greeted by a giant. A red, musclebound giant stallion. Immediatly Zexis jumped back, as not to walk into him, although he doubted that would have make much difference. The guy looked like not even a minotaur could move him. Behind the blond hair was a calm, but sad face with a beard that hadn´t seen much care. The stallion was carrying a bouquet of Lilys with him. He didn´t even gave Zexis a look, when he marched out the door.

The question seemed to have been written on the zebras face, as Roseluck immediatly walked up to him. "That was BigMac. He was just purchasing some flowers for his grandmother.", she said. "Do you have the payment?"

Zexis nodded and gave her the pouch. "Here it is. He seemed a bit down. Not a good day?", he asked.

"Well, he is visiting Old Grannys grave today. The two were always close, so this mood is to be expected. Also, he had a fight with Applejack yesterday.", answered Lily, always happy to gossip.

Roseluck gave her a scolding look. "But that is not something we should talk about.", she protested.

"Don´t worry, my lips are sealed.", said Zexis and performed the associated motion, plus throwing away the imaginary key.

Roseluck sighed. "If you say so. Anyway, you really helped us out here. We had no idea about your talent with plants. That could come in handy.", she said, with a thoughtful look on her.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, since Zecora came here we kinda moved away from alchemical ingredients, you know? But now there always a few shortages here and there, especially with the rare stuff. And Zecoras hut is not easibly accesible. So we thought, with you around as a kind of expert, we revive that business again."

Zexis couldn´t believe his ears. Today was really his lucky day! With that, he could get his hands on all manner of ingedrients he would need for his receipes. And it wouldn´t even be suspicious! But, he suppressed his grin and played his role. "Are you sure? I mean, not all too many people trust a zebra stallion...", he said with a pessimistic tone.

But Lily just waved her hand dismissevly. "I think they will get around. From us you get an Okay. In fact it was Daisy, who suggested it in the first place, and she always the paranoid one of us.", she said laughing, "Isn´t that right, Daisy?"

Daisy however wasn´t answering. Instead she stared, with beet-red face, on a point below Zexis belt. The others followed her gaze. Then everything exploed into a cacophonie of embarrassed screams, Zexis hasty apologies for his impressive boner and, under all that chaos, the quiet mumbling of Daisy.

Alternative ingestion method: Contaminated utensils, like clothing or bedsheets. Keep in mind, that ANY suggestion will lead to alteration and that the state only last for twenty minutes. Be careful!

Author's Note

Just a quick note: The receipes will be few and far in between to emulate the learning process of Zexis. This one is rather easy and weak, because it must be repeated for a long time to have any clear effect. But I think it will nonetheless stimulate some plans from you, right? :raritywink:

Also, yes, Granny Smith is dead in this universe. Deal with it. She was ancient anyway.

Encounter

....BZZZT.... Click!

This Sarmandos Suggestion Powder will be a good tool but it need to be used correctly. I recommend that you set up some sort of routine of giving the flower trio a cup of hot tea either in the morning or evening when you work. Prepare the tea by your self and inform the flower trio that its a special blend that your farther made for you to help you get through the day if you give it to them in the morning or help you relax if you give it to them in the evening and that it is a family secret. Make sure you make it with a strong tea ideally one that from you home country. Once you have built a routine of this and have them drinking it every day you need a simple message that can be said with out raising suspicions something like you trust me completely, I'm never wrong,

Don't suggest that they are hornier or to give into their desire cause they might just go after the nearest stallion or make them act in a way that other will notice instead make sure your suggestion lead towards you being right no matter what they think and feel cause in the end you know best.

Now for the upcoming guys night spend most of it listening and only offer basic information about your self and watch out for discord cause I honestly can not predict if he will catch on to us or not.

One last note as I stated before you need to go back to the hospital for that appointment and lay Nurse Redheart notion about you to rest apologies and say you are still new to Equestria but your attitude was clearly out of line. However bring up the fact that you find it odd about not being examined straight away about your head would cause how seriously they are treat in your home country. Make her feel guilty and apologise to you if she does not make a quite comment about you thought Equestria is a lot more racist than you thought it would be. If you do not get Redheart as your Nurse then mention her treatment to her work colleague ask if this is normal procedure then follow the same advice as a gave above.

your sincerely

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

Bravo Zelix. You stole a book, met Starlight and Big Mac, and the most important thing, you got something to start manipulating ponies. Great job. For that you deserve a round of applause.

I say the best thing to do, with that powder,would be to test it out on Daisy, Lily, and Roseluck. I recommend you make them some ice tea to disguise it. When they drink it, just say You like the tea.. I recommend doing this for a few days. Once the suggestion is cemented in their heads they like the tea, give them more suggestions. I think a fun one would be when you talk to a stallion, you can't help but stare at his dick. . After a while suggest this, It is completely normal for a pony to be naked in their house.. When that one works, you can be naked in the house and the flower trio will be naked as well and the best part is they will be stareing at your cock.

Now you got a good thing coming with guys night. Be careful with Discord. Have fun with him but don't mention mares being bitches around him. He may be on board with corrupting Celestia, but he may become your enemy if you talk about corrupting Fluttershy. So go to guys night. Have fun. Try and bond with the guys. See if you can't get the other guys to cheer Spike on to asking a girl out. If that occurs then know you got the stallions' and Spike's approval.

You should also explore the town a bit more. See the market. Maybe you can see a bit more how mares run this town and scope out the next bitches to be corrupted after you get the flower trio to become cocksucking whores.

If you have some time find out what's going on with that red stallion. Lots of mares have been eye banging him. He may be a good ally if you help him feel better. If you corrupt him, lots of mares will be begging for his cock.

It had taken good one hour and a half for Zexis to calm down the girls. Lily had fainted, Roseluck had run with a red face in the storage room and Daisy....Daisy surprisingly had taken it rather well, although she had apologized and retreated into her room, while suspiciously rubbing her thighs together. Nevertheless Zexis had managed to defuse the situation, at least a little bit. Roseluck had given him free time, to get rid of his erection. She had made clear, that, while they understood that as a zebra, Zexis couldn´t be expected to have his...privates under total control, it would be better, if he tried to adapt. Of course, he had agreed to that. At least verbally.

In truth however, he was already planning out how to relax the Flower-Trio. There was one receipe, he found in the new book, that would turn out to be rather useful for this endeavor. Sarmandos Suggestion Powder would help him on his first step. It was rather easy to make and the ingredients themselves could be aquired without many problems. In fact, he had already aquired the Fools Salt and the Poppy Seeds from the market, during his break. Now he only he needed some magic infused stones, and these would be at the Everfree Forest. Like the one, where he had found the Fake Snakes. Maybe he could take the opportunity and look for that Zecora, that Applebloom had been talking about. Meeting another zebra in Equestria would be refreshing. And maybe she would be open to his idea of sexually corru....liberating Ponyville?
That reminded him, he needed to ask Applebloom for the way to Zecoras hut. She seemed to be one of the few in this town to regulary visit the zebra-mare. So a trip to the school was in order.

Before he was going there however, he had to make another stop. He had time to think about it, and Zexis had came to the conclusion, that he couldn´t just let the matter with the nurse lie. No, she had denied him treatment and had been downright rude to him! That needed to be remedied. Even if is his flirting was considered inappropriate in Equestria, not helping someone with a head injury was a crime, no matter which country you practiced medicine in. Sure, now he was fine and the injury didn´t seem to have lasting effects, but there was still the principle!

With this in mind, Zexis strolled into the foyer of the clinic. Like yesterday Nurse "Bombshell" Readheart was sitting at the reception, organizing files. She looked up and her calm expression immediatly fell. "Welcome back. Are you here for an apology?", she asked condescendingly.

Zexis clenched his fist. Anger seeped through his brain. "I think you owe me an apology, Mrs. Nurse.", he said aggrevated. He walked with forceful steps to the reception and put his hands on the table. "I may be new in Equestria, but where I come from, it is considered a crime to deny someones access to medical treatment because of their race, behaviour or physical apperance. And yes, I may have been rude at the beginning, but I also could have had a serious brain injury from my fall, which. You. Refused. To. Treat!" His face was now mere inches away from the nurses muzzle, who had backed up against the wall, with a fearful look in her eyes. For a brief moment, a primal part in Zexis head wanted to lunch forward and force a kiss on that prissy bitches mouth, but he held himself back. While there was little he wanted more, than to just take that mare and rape here right here and now, until she apologized like the slutty fleshlight she was, something told him to keep his desires in check.

The nurse on the other hand was now quivering lightly. She only relaxed, when Zexis pulled himself back. With a hand on her supple breast she breathed heavily, heaving her tits every time, to calm herself. Zexis turned around, as not to suffer another erection at that sight, and waited. Then, after a few moments of quietness, Redheart answered: "I....am sorry. I really seemed to have....overreacted." Zexis looked at her again and saw that her eyes were downcast. She still seemed intimidated by the Zebra, but there was a mixture of shame with it. "I know my duties as a doctor, and to forget the oath I swore, just because of some cultural...discrepancies. Its....ehm...."

"Disgraceful.", added Zexis. Redheart flinched at tha hard tone of his voice but nodded.

"Yes, digraceful may be a good word." She stood up, her tits bouncing, despite the restricting nature of her uniform. "I apologize for my behaviour. I hope I can make it up too you, Mr...?"

"Zexis Chikelu. Just Zexis is fine, however." He stroke his chin. He never thought it would go so well. It seemed like Redheart had submissive streak to her. Or maybe he was just that intimidating. He needed to take advantage of that. "You know what? How about a date?"

In a flash the anger on the white mares face came back. "How dare..."

"Hey, its just a date. Doesn´t have to be serious. Just a nice, normal chat in a café.", Zexis interrupted, before she could get the wrong (right) idea. "I just want to prove to you, that I am a nice guy and not the brute, you think I am. Besides..." Demonstratively he looked around the empty room. "It´s not like you haven´t got the time. So, what you say?"

Nurse Redheart threw him a sceptic look before her gaze fell to her neatly organized files. Then, after a few second of silence, she sighed and relented. "Fine, but only because I owe you one.", she said.

"Great!", said Zexis and grinned. "So, I pick you up in three hours?"

She nodded and Zexis rubbed his hands internally. In three hours he could get to Zecora, get the last ingredient and make the powder. The nurse would be his first test subject. If only she knew...

At the School

A few minutes later, Zexis stood before Ponyville School. It seemed like he was right on time, because the bell had rung and all the fillies and colts were leaving the building. The colts were clear in the minority and Zexis could see that a lot of them had their own groups. Those who were not so lucky, the losers and bully-victims, were usually hanging around with the girls, carrying their bags and so on. Clearly a social missmatch Zexis needed to adress sooner or later.

While he was waiting for CMC, as the girls were called in Ponyville, he saw a small pamphlet at the Black Board of the school.

The schoolboard is looking for a subsitute-teacher for Basic Alchemy for at least two weeks. For application, please go to Mrs. Cherilee.

An interesting offer, but before Zexis could devote his whole attention to it, he saw the Crusaders stepping out of the building. Sweetie Belle immediatly spotted him and waved her hand. Zexis waved back and walked towards them. Scootaloo backed off slightly, but the other two seemed happy to see him. "Hello, Zexis.", greeted him Applebloom, "How are you doing?"

"Good, thank you. I work with the Flower-Girls now. They gave me a room above the shop.", he said.

"Really? Didn´t take you for flowery type.", said Scootaloo with a sceptic look.

Zexis just smiled. "Its actually my specialty. We plan to restock some of the old sortiment, so the townsfolk got some better access to remedies and stuff."

"Thats sounds awesome!", said Sweetie Belle impressed, "Although I hope you don´t drive Zecora off the market. Otherwise she might get angry and turn you into frog." She giggled and her clear, beautiful laugh filled the air.

"That would actually be preferable...", muttered Scootaloo under her breath.

Zexis ignored the grumpy pegasus and adressed Applebloom instead. "Speaking of, I would actually like to meet her. Can you tell me the way?"

Applebloom shouldered her bag and smiled. "I got something even better for you. I show you the way. I need to go to her anyway, because she needs my help for gathering new herbs." She looked very proud for that assignment, so Zexis concluded it wasn´t something that happened regulary.

He was proven right, when Sweetie Belle exclaimed: "Thats great! You think its a sign that she trusts you more?"

"Nah, she probably just needs some help. Thats all."

Applebloom threw Scootaloo a dirty look for that remark. "Did somebody spit in your soup, today? You have been cranky the entire time."

The pegasus just shrugged. Then her eyes catched something behind Zexis shoulder and she scowled. "Speak of Discord...", she mumbled. "Have to go. Dirt Hoof is looking at me. He gets real cranky, when I´m not on time." With that she pushed Zexis rudely to the side, or at least tried with her small frame, and walked towards the schoolgate. When Zexis turned around, he saw that she was going to a fat unicorn stallion, who was waiting for her. His coat had the colour of a greasy green and his black mane was flat and oily. When Scootaloo was near him, he layed his right arm on her shoulders and one could see how she shivered in disgust. But she didn´t pull away and instead let herself be lead away by her caretaker. The Zebra had to agree with Roseluck. That guy was a total creep. Unlike the mare however, Zexis smiled at that discovery. Another opportunity...

In the Everfree

"You make that trip every time!?", Zexis exclaimed out of breath. His mohawk had string of hair falling in his face, and there were numerous cuts and bruises on his body.

Applebloom, on the other hand, was completely unharmed and walked with a relaxed smile on her face. "Oh, come on. It wasn´t so bad. The Rockodile even spit you out. They almost never do that, once they bite."

"Yeah, but only because I managed to kick his gum! Where were you actually at that time?"

"On the path. I told you not to stray away. But, nooo. You had to take that magic stone in the river. Of course a rockodile jumps at you. Next time, listen to me, understood?"

Zexis clenched his teeth, but relented. "Okay, okay. Sorry, won´t happen again.", he admitted. At least, he got his last ingedrient out of that near-death experience, so not everything was bad. Still, it grated on his nerves to be criticized by a filly. Even if she was right!

Finally, after half a hour of walking, they arrived at a small cottage. It looked like someone had taken a tree, hollowed it out and put all manner of trinkets, mask and charms inside of it. Even the exterior was clad in fetishes and talismans. Zexis even recognized some from his hometown, especially a mask, that was said to hold a spirit that warded of evil. A prickling feeling of danger crawled over his skin.

"And here we are.", said Applebloom and knocked on the door. "Zecora, its me, Applebloom. I brought a guest."

The door opened and Zecora stepped outside. She was about Zexis size and styled a similar, if a little bit unkempt, mohawk. She was wearing a thick brown robe, that still couldn´t hide her impressive jugs and wide hips, and several gold ring around her neck with another pair as earrings. Her blue eyes shined in the dark light and fixated almost immediatly on Zexis.

Applebloom cleared her throat. "Zecora, meet Zexis. He arrived yesterday in Ponyville and wanted to meet..." Further she didn´t get, before she was interrupted by Zecora, who stepped out her hut and positioned herself between the young filly and Zexis.

"You are not welcome here, stranger." Her words were heavy and gave her deep voice an alluring touch. "Go back where you came from."

Zexis blinked confused. "I´m sorry. Did I offend you? I haven´t even done anything.", he said trying to step around her to Applebloom, but the hermit blocked him.

"What are you doing, Zecora? Zexis is friendly!", asked Applebloom, confused because of the sudden hostility.

It became even more unsettling, when the zebra mare pulled out a horned pony skull, whose eyes were shining in a dark red light. "Bad mojo sorrounds you, stranger. Leave this place. Leave my home!", she spat and reached in her pockets to pull out a talisman.

Applebloom stepped in front of her. "What are you doing? He has done nothing wrong! What is bad mojo? Zecora, stop!"

The talisman began to glim in an eery light and again Zexis skin began to prickle. He had to get out of here quickly! Something told him, he would not like what Zecora would conjure up. He threw his hands in the air, in a gesture of exasperation. "Fine! I see, when I am not welcome!", he said angry and turned around. "I don´t have time for Juju or whatever you have there, anyway." He sounded a lot more confident than he was feeling, considering he could practically taste the power from that talisman. "See you later.", he said to Applebloom and strolled off.

Only when he was out of sight, he began to run.

Ponyville Hospital

Nurse Redheart was waiting for him in a casual outfit. Like everything in a Equestria, her clothing was styled to be as restrictive and unalluring as possible, with a red sweater and a long black skirt, that was reaching down to her ankles. Still, she looked nice and most off all safe, after that encounter with Zecora. Zexis was smiling at her, a hand resting at the small pouch of powder in his pocket. He had grinded down the ingredient he possessed now, before he got to her. This date would be the test run for the Suggestion Powder.

"Looking good.", he said. The lie came easy from his lips. Good looking she would be, when she was finally letting out those tits! But that would take a while.

Redheart rolled her eyes, but a smile had crept up. "Spare me you compliments. Can we just get that behind us?" She turned around and walked towards the market. Zexis shrugged his shoulders and followed her.

They sat down at a small diner, with look on the castle. There were a few pairs sitting around them, but none of them were close enough to eavesdrop, Zexis made sure of that. Other than that it was a lovely spot, perfect for nice chat and a little seduction.

A waiter appeared. "A strong coffee, please.", ordered Redheart and looked at Zexis, who nodded. "Make it two." Then she focused on Zexis. "So, lets see, if this is really worthwhile..."

...

"And you see, thats why it is actually considered a compliment in Zebrica, when someone is....appreciating your body.", explained Zexis. They had been talking for an entire hour already. On the first opportunity, he had spiked the coffee with powder, but the effect was still not showing. Was the dosage too small?

Nurse Redheart was now in a more relaxed state of mind. "That explains your behaviour and I apologize for the misunderstanding.", she said and took another sip from her cup. "Still, when in Equestria, do as the equestrians do. You really should keep in...." She suddenly trailed off and her pupils began to dilate.

Zexis grinned. About time!
He leaned forward, to make sure nobody listened in. Then he began his commands. "But thats not what you really think. Is it, Redheart?"

The nurse blinked slowly and her expression became confused. "What.....do I....think?", she asked.

Zexis´ grin got brighter. "I think, you want cultural differences. Zebrica sounds like an interesting culture, right?"

It took some time, but she nodded finally. "Yes...that sounds....about right."

"In fact, there may be some things Equestria could learn from them. After all, its nice to be appreciated. Even if its just the looks.", Zexis continued. Again the mare nodded. Indicating, that the suggestion had taken hold. "You as nurse should know, after all a healthy body helps towards a healthy mind. And we should show how healthy we are."

That seemed to work better, because she reacted faster to the last suggestion. "You´re right. I....haven´t thought about that."

Now Zexis was hooked. He leaned even closer. His muzzly close from touching hers. "I think, you should set a good example yourself. How about showing me that healthy breasts of yours?" He smiled hungry.

Redheart frowned however and her eyes became clearer for a moment. "No! That is....preposterous.", she said with a raised voice.

Shit!, thought Zexis and began to paddle back immediatly. "Of course, of course. That was...just a joke, haha! Just a joke...." He looked anxiously around. Thankfully only one or two looks were thrown in his direction. Most of the other guest at the diner were paying them no mind. Remember, small suggestions. She is obviously not ready for ideas, that go against her ideals., he reminded himself and focused once again an Redheart. "But seriously, isn´t it difficult to properly examine your patients, when there is such a social...barrier against undressing? I mean, how are you supposed to help, if they are too ashamed for that simple act?"

The mares eyes dulled once again and she nodded, falling back into trance. "Yes, sometimes it is...difficult too convice them to cooperate. But what can I do? Thats how we are."

Zexis shook his head. "Thats not true. I think your patients just need more than simple reassurance. They need to feel comfortable. You need to feel comfortable."

"What...do you suggest?"

The stallion grinned once again. "Well, I have a few ideas..."

...

A few minutes later, Zexis clapped in his hands and stood up. "Well, that was a nice and enlightening conversation. We should do that again."

Redheart blinked, as if she just woken up, and then looked around confused. "What? I...I mean....what?", she stammered, clearly not remembering the last twenty minutes.

Zexis smiled "I think you had a great impact on me, Redheart. I really thank you for that date. Tomorrow, same time?"

The nurse was still trying to get her bearings, but the powders after-effects made that difficult, so she just mumbled: "Tomorrow....? Eehm, okay, i guess?"

"Great!", the Zebra said, "I already paid the waiter. See ya!" He waved goodbye to the confused nurse and walked off. He saw, how Redaheart stood up and shook her head, before she seemed to remember something and walked in the direction of the next boutique. He grinned wide. The experiment was a full success! He just needed to adjust the dosage. And in the next few days he could observe, how effective the changes he made would be.

He turned around and walked towards the market. For Roseluck, Lily and Daisy he already got an idea.

Author's Note

Fuh, Zecora seems to be resistant to Zexis charm. ^^
I personally, was glad that we got that scene. It was a good way of showing, that some of the more powerful characters in this story might be aware, that something is wrong. Now, don´t worry, Zecora doesn´t know who Zexis actually is. She just reacted to his malevolent aura or "mojo". She will probably not react immediatly, when the changes a small and out of her detection range. But she will take action if we corrupt Applebloom, for example.
Its a good way of establishing, how weak our character currently is. See Zecora as some kind of mid-level boss that shows you the level difference in an area. We need to level up, before we can take her on.

The events now work in a way, that you have to vote again. Only one of the two can be triggered and you have to choose. Events can give Zexis good insight into the secrets and traits of other characters or advance the plot in an significant way. Keep in mind, that there are good and bad events, so choose wisely. I will always make sure there are some subtle hints in the story, on what kind of events these are.

Also, we will finally have some more juicy scenes in the next chapter. I won´t spoil anything, so continue to hatch plans and look forward to the next chapter. :twilightsmile:

Lies and Secrets

Okay I will keep it short this time.

One: stay away from Zecora. She is a quite powerful herbalist and has lived long enough under ponies to adapt their culture and habits. Applebloom doesn't seem to suspect anything yet.

Two: like your date with redheart showed, the Suggestion Powder has its limits. Don't try to overstep them. It is a bad idea.

Three: Scootaloo could be a useful ally if you manage to befriend her. I suggest you head to the orphanage and maybe do something about Bird Hoof.

Four: The flower girls have many social contacts. That is both good and bad. They could introduce you to more ponies, but any changes will be noticed quite easily and a smart pony could trace them back to you. Thus you have to be very careful at first. Test your boundaries but be careful. You might have to reverse everything so maybe you plant a trigger to undo everything you did.

LEAVE MY DOMAIN AT ONCE!!!

Yeah, calm down big one. I'm already gone.

fades away into darkness

WHAT? HOW?!

Magic.

....BZZZT.... Click!

Well thing are starting to get interesting I see. You did excellent work with Nurse Redheart but be careful how you word your suggestions to her we do not want her to act to unusual around her friends and those who know her. I recommend that you link your previous suggestion to her to surface when she is alone with you as a safety precaution, we can get rid of them later when we have more secure power base.

Now about our Zecora problem, for now leave her be we are not strong enough yet. However, we will need to reassure Applebloom after she saw how Zecora reacted to us I would recommend that you tell her that you and Zecora come from two tribes that use to fight a lot and that some resentment remains between the tribes. Hopefully these will set her mind at ease and you can suggest that she should not talk to Zecora about you cause it will only upset her further.

Th job at the school is a good opportunity we should look into it we most definitely could use the extra bits and can secure more ingredient for our potions. It would also make us look extremely good to the community cause every one trusts teachers right :pinkiehappy:.

Now lastly I recommend going to the Orphanage we need to know more about Bird Hoof and see if we can make him into a pawn. Notice I say pawn and not ally,He already has a reputation for being creepy and we don't want to be associated with that in these early stages, but if we could get something to blackmail him with he would be a good pawn and as we grow in power he will become a willing pawn when we show him the rewards for serving us loyally. It also my be a chance to get Scootaloo to like us more, if she changes her attitude towards us then it would reassure Applebloom and once again stem any repercussions that may occur due to her seeing how Zecora acted towards us.

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

'A Priority one Transmission coming in'

*The mirror emits a crackle, and a blacked out bipedal form appears.*

Congratulation, agent of corruption. Your work with Nurse Redheart is beyond my expectations.

From this point on, our analysis is there are two paths before you. These paths have been assigned to code names 'Monarchy' and 'Democracy' respectively.

Path 'Monarchy' is to visit Princess Twilight Sparkle.

Path 'Democracy' is to visit the Orphanage.

Both paths have their advantages.

'Monarchy' lets you immediately be introduced to a princess, which is not to be taken lightly. She would be the pony anyone who has a problem with you, would go to. Even if you do not corrupt her immediately, having a rapport with her would be quite useful in such a serious. However, this path is not without risks. The fact is, she is in communication with Princess Celestia,and is an Element of Harmony. Even letting her leak some minor worries into a letter could lead to Princess Celestria's immediate response. Of course, this may be useful once you have been suitably empowered. Being able to prepare for Princess Celsestia, may make the difference between success, or failure. Once you did have both Princess Celstria and Pincess Twilight, Luna would be an easy target. Once you have the ruling majority, the ponies under their rule would be quickly ... convinced, of the truth of our ways.

'Democracy' is a much slower force. While 'Monarchy' allows you to quickly issue a coup de grâce against the puritan godly beings that rule Equestria, 'Democracy' converts the common folk. By visiting the orphanage, you are able to reach the ignored youth of Ponyvill. If while you were meeting with the headmaster of the orphanage,you could arrange for you to 'volunteer' to help out. This action allows you some unsupervised access to the young fillies, and improves your reputation throughout the town. If you could partner this with the job opportunity as a substitute teacher, you would have plenty of time to stow our corrupted seed. Literally or metaphorically, as I am sure that your body is begging to find release.

Of course there is a problem with this course of action. There is only so much time in a day, and juggling your work at the flower shop, a job as a substitute teacher, and volunteer work would be difficult. Perhaps you could start giving a few 'lessons' to the flower-trio so that you could have more time off? I am sure that you could find a way to balance it all.

Once again, Zexis was woken up by the morning call of a rooster. He was lying on his bed, with the Magic Stones, Plants and other Curiosities open on his nightdesk and a raging boner. His prick stood proud and greeted the morning sun in all its glory. Zexis grinned. Even though these ponies were as tight about a good fuck as a noose, one had to admit, that there were some real beauties among them. At least worth jacking off for one hour. In his fantasies he had this purple alicorn princess speared on his cock, moaning like the needy slut she was, while he fucked all the unnecessary braincells out of her. Towards his hooves layed Scootaloo bound and gagged, with a dildo up her tight cunt. Her friend Applebloom was giving him a lapdance, while Sweetie Belle was fucked by random stallions, her innocence shattered and her body defiled by degrading markings.

Damn, just thinking about it let Zexis really question his patience with these ponies. It was about time that someone showed these mares the joy they lacked in their lifes. His eyes fell upon the other two books, he got from the library. Equestria for Dummies and Summary of Euqine History. These books showed him the heart of the problem. Apparently over one thousand years ago, Celestia had enacted the so called "Purity Law", which had placed severe restrictions on any sexual actions. Prostitution got outlawed, Abstinence was envoked and any kind of promiscious behaviour became socially unacceptable. Now these laws had been loosened over the last century, but only slightly. And for Zexis it showed, just how outdated Equestria was. He had been right in his plan to change that. But, on step at a time.

He stood up and looked down on his erection. It was time to see wether or not yesterdays experiment had been a success. He put on his clothes, packed his prick inside his tight jeans, so it was visible, and walked downstairs.

Roseluck and Daisy were the ones tending to shop, when Zexis arrived. The redhaired earthpony saw him and smiled. "Good morning, Zexis. Hope you got a good sleep." Then her eyes wandered down. Zexis tensed, expecting another breakdown like yesterday. Instead of shrieking however, Roseluck just frowned. "Geez, couldn´t you have taken care of your package before you came down?", she asked annoyed. Daisy just stared at the outline of his penis, her mouth light open.

Zexis gave his best not to grin like an idiot and instead tried to look remorseful, without much success. "Sorry, forgot about it.", he said and walked towards the small cabinet, where the teacups stood. "Where is Lily? Wanna make some tea for us. Since yesterday went so well.", he asked.

The question seemed to wake Daisy from her daydreams. She akwardly cleared her throat. "She is outside watering the roses. Should be finished in about a few minutes.", she answered, trying not to look in Zexis direction. The Zebra just smiled.

"You want to make this a morning ritual, or what?", Roseluck asked jokingly.

"Why not? Tea is perfect for relaxing and starting fresh in a new day. I thought you could use that." This time Zexis grinned openly.

Roseluck smiled back, misunderstanding his glee. "Well, you are not wrong about that."

...

All three mares stared blank into empty space. Their teacups were halfempty and Zexis was standing before them, barely able to hold in a laughter. Yesterday he had put a slightly stronger dosage of the suggestion powder into the tea, than he had with Redheart. It had worked much faster and he had been able to put two basic commands into the head of the mares. Now it was time to reinforce those commands. He cleared his throat and commanded: "You trust me. You know, even though you just got to know me, that I am more confident, more capable and knowledgable than you."

He waited a few moments and finally all three nodded. Roseluck a bit hesitantly, but she was the more independent one of them, so that was to be expected. Still, they reacted faster than yesterday and without question, which meant that the suggestion had begun to take hold. "There is in fact, nothing really wrong with my actions. They may be weird, but that is only because you simply do not understand the deeper meaning behind them.", he said, reinforcing it once again.

And again they nodded, faster this time. Zexis stepped closer and began his second command he started yesterday. "You want to adjust your living standards to my needs. Get a little bit looser with rules, when we are private." It was due to this idea, that Roseluck had become not quite so agigated with Zexis flaunting of his endowments. The endgoal was it, to make them completely amieable, maybe even eager, to those "sexual" actions. The keyword was "private" here. Because Zexis knew, that it would only lead to unwanted attention, should those three suddenly start stripping in the open. No, for that to happen the town needed a little bit more prepwork.

"You want to relax in my presence. You know, that you are safe. That nothing can harm you, as long as I am here. You appreciate that, don´t you?", he continued.

"Yes, we do...", answered Lily, sounding sleepy, as if she was just getting out of bed.

Zexis stepped to Daisy, who began to breath harder, the closer he came. Even under the drug, her face reddened with, Zexis knew now, arousal. His hand touched her chin and pulled her face up, so she looked him the eyes. "Maybe some of you...love me for it.", he whispered.

And while Roseluck frowned confused and Lily didn´t react at all, Daisy became beet-red and answered breathless: "Yes...." A slight wetness trailed down her left leg.

It took all of Zexis discipline, not to suddenly jump at her and ravage her in front of her friends, but he managed to hold himself together. This was too important to fuck it up now. He leaned closer and whispered in her ear: "You desire me."

"Yes.."

"You want me."

"Yes."

"You will do anything for my approval..." That last one was risky, considering the conditioning was still fresh.

But any doubts were soon dispelled as Daisy looked up to him, her eyes no longer glazed, but filled with adoration and lust. "Yeeessss..."

Zexis grinned at that sight. One down. First step completed.

...

"Aaaaand that was it for today.", declared Lily, when she turned the store sign from "Open" to "Closed". She turned around and stretched a tense arms. "Good work, team."

Roseluck nodded and closed the register. "Good work, indeed. We are over the average today. And that even before we open our new Remedy-Section." She looked in the direction of the crates, that had been delivered today. "I think, business will especially pick up, once we got that going for us."

Zexis smiled proudly. He stood with Daisy by the flowers, picking them up and moving them back into the shop. Lily walked over to the crates and inspected them. "Anyone got an idea, why we have ordered Moonlight Beets? Isn´t that needed for aphrosidiacs?", she asked and looked questioningly at Zexis.

He just shrugged his shoulders. "There are multiple applications for them.", he explained, "For example, they are very useful as muscle relaxant. So no issue there."

Roseluck looked not convinced. "I don´t know. Someone could have issues with the fact, that we are selling a potential..."

"Rose.", Zexis interrupted her firm, "It is not an issue."

For a moment the redhaired mare seemed to object, but then she hesitated. Her gaze went back to the crates, and Zexis could see the doubts on he face. Then Daisy chimed in, throwing her arms over Zexis back and leaning her head on his shoulder. Her hair smelled like cherry and her breast were comfortably close. "I think, when Zexis said its okay, it is okay. He knows more about this stuff, than we do." That seemed to resonate, as both Roseluck and Lily nodded and went back to their chores.

Zexis turned around and smiled at Daisy. "Thanks for assist, sweetie.", he said. Daisy, again, went red at that compliment, but smiled back and giggled. Then she noticed something and took two steps back. Her eyes were fixated on Zexis proud cock, pressing itself once again against his tight jeans. Her lust was now evident, as she licked her lips and her left hand went absently towards her crotch.

But before either she or Zexis could say something, they were interrupted by Lily. "Zexis?"

The Zebra groaned in frustration, but forced a smile on his lips, while he turned towards his cockblocker. "Yes, Lily?"

"Applebloom was here a few minutes ago, while you were in the storage. She wanted to talk to you."

That got Zexis attention. What wanted Applebloom? Had Zecora told her something? Was she going to question him? Anyway, it may also be an opportunity for him, to give her a convincing lie, so she wouldn´t get caught between him and Zecora. The last thing he needed was the angry shaman getting the townsfolk all uppity. "Good. Where exactly?"

"At the schooldbuilding. She is waiting for you."

The Zebra nodded. "You manage without me, girls.", he said and strolled of.

"Understood.", came it back three times. All three hadn´t realized, that they had just answered a command, instead of a request.

At the School

Zexis saw Applebloom standing alone in front of the blackboard. The filly sported once again a strong working shirt with some trousers today. Still, the fabric couldn´t hide her strong legs and her, for age, well defined rear. She had a sullen look on her face, that only lit up slightly, when she saw him coming.

"I am so sorry, about what happened yesterday.", she said, after they had exchanged greetings. "Zecora wouldn´t explain. Quite honestly, I don´t know what her problem is."

Zexis stopped himself from sighing in relief. Thankfully that bitch had been tightlipped. He wasn´t quite sure, why he didn´t want her investigating him, but still. Maybe he was still miffed about her behaviour. Still, what should he tell Applebloom? He needed to come up with an convincing lie, that she wouldn´t double-check with the zebra-mare. In the end, he said: "Look, Applebloom. I think I know, what her problem was."

"I had made some inquiries, from which tribe she is coming from and it may be a explanation for her behaviour.", he said cautiously.

Applebloom however nodded. "Right, the Wakanga tribe."

Zexis blinked. Well, that was convenient. That way, he didn´t need to think of a name. "Right, Wakanga. How do you know that?"

"Oh, I saw the emblem, on one of her talismans and asked Twilight. It´s touchy subject for Zecora, although she didn´t tell why."

The stallion nodded. "Thats because my tribe, the Chikelus, had attacked the Wakangas a few years ago. A raid, more or less, but it got of hand and things got...ugly." Good, he was getting used to this. It even sounded convincing to him!

Applebloom swallowed the lie easy. Her face dropped and she looked sad towards the Everfree. "Oh, that is....just....well, it would explain, why she is here."

Zexis put comfortingly a hand on her shoulder. "I expect, her family died that day. Would explain the grudge and why she doesn´t talk about it."

Now Applebloom looked back to him. "But, you had nothing to do with that raid, didn´t you?"

Zexis shook his head. "Was to young, and frankly I had never been much of fighter. Too much violence in the world already. Don´t need to add to that." Damn, one should call him "Silvertongue"! If this did get on any longer, he could probably make a hero out of himself.

Thankfully, before Zexis could go overboard with his tall tale, Applebloom scratched her head in thought and frowned. "I really should talk with her. I mean, it´s bad and all, but it can´t go on, that she hates you. I mean, you are alright, and all. She needs to see that."

Oh crap! That was not something, he wanted. "I wouldn´t appreciate that.", he quickly said.

Now the filly looked at him strange. "Why not? I mean, you don´t want Zecora angry at you. And I don´t want you two to be enemies. Why can´t we talk this one out?"

"Well...thats because...." Zexis wracked his brain, to search for convincing answer. "Imagine if I were to come to you and began digging up your dead familiy members for an argument. Your Grandma, for example. Opening all those old wounds, for what? Something I have no reason putting my nose in."

That seemed to hit home. Zexis almost felt bad, when he saw the crestfallen look an Appleblooms face. Bringing up the dead granny was a low blow, but it was the only viable option, from keeping that girl from asking the wrong questions. Instead of doing that, tears began to swell in her eyes. She immediatly brushed them away, trying to look strong, but there was no denial that Zexis words had touched her in a sore place. "That....is a fair point.", she murmured. Then she sighed. "Okay, I won´t press the issue. For now. But no guarantees, when she tries to make applesauce out of you, okay?"

Zexis nodded, and once again padded her on her shoulder. "Got it. Don´t you worry your cute head about that. I going to solve that problem, trust me.", he said.

Applebloom smiled weak. "Cute....you know, on everypony else, that would sound...invasive." She shook her head and seemed to regain a little bit composure. "But you´re okay, Zexis. Like, really okay. Thanks for the explanation."

Zexis smiled even brighter, while in his head he wiped away a few sweatdrops. Crises avoided, for now. Then his eyes went to the blackboard and he remembered the job offer. "Change of topic, if you don´t mind. Do you know who I need to talk to, if I want take the teacher position, offered there?", he asked, pointing at the memo.

Applebloom followed his finger. "Oh, you mean the alchemy classes? That would be Mrs. Cherilee, my class-teacher.", she said. Then she seemed to get an idea. "You know what? I´m gonna take care of that and tell her tomorrow that you are interested. I mean, I´m meeting her anyway and you don´t need to chase her through town. As soon as I got an answer, I´m gonna tell you. What do you think?"

Zexis didn´t need to ponder that for long. "Deal! I´m going to repay you that."

"Ah, no need for that."

"Shush, my honor demands it!", he said with slight smirk.

Applebloom laughed. "You´re really the nicest zebra stallion I ever met, Zexis.", she said giggling.

Zexis raised an eyebrow. "And how many did you meet?"

"Just one.", answered Applebloom, grinning. Then she turned around and waved him goodbye. "See ya!" Then she strolled off.

"Until next time!", said Zexis. Then, when she was out of sight, he grinned lecherously. "Until next time...my little slut..."

Near the Orphanage

It was already at night. The sun had gone down and the moon and stars were shining brightly. Most of Ponyville was now asleep and Zexis was going back towards the Flowershop and his bed. He had spend the rest of the day exploring the town and informing himself about any new housings. Sadly that endeavour had proven quite fruitless, as the offers that existed hadn´t met his standard. He had wanted something private for himself, at best with a basement. But the few houses that met that description were financially out of his reach for the moment. Seemed like he would need to sleep in the closet for quite some time, before he could move on.

His way home had lead to Orphanage. It hadn´t been a conscious choice in his part. Just a feeling, that he could take the time and look at it. The building wasn´t anything grand. It was mainly built for size, to accomodate the children, instead of appeal. Actually, now that Zexis looked at it, it was really run down. The paint began to peel and some of the windows were broken. Clearly, there hadn´t been much money offered for the Orphanage, which was weird, considering the amount of cooperation one could find in this town.

Many of the rooms behind the windows were without light, but one further in the back was still lit. It was situated towards the outskirts of the town, difficult to see and Zexis would have missed it, if there hadn´t been a rythmic thumping coming from that room. His curiosity awakened, the zebra sneaked closer and peaked through the window.

What he saw, was quite a sight.

The fat unicorn from yesterday, Bird Hoof, was standing naked at his desk. His body glancing with sweat and he himself panting with excitement and exhaustion. Under him layed Scootaloo, the small orange pegasus with her jeans down her legs and her chest pressed against the wooden surface by the weight of her "caretaker". The filly seemed almost tiny in comparison to thick frame of the stallion, while she was rocked in a frantic rythm. Her face was distorted with pain and disgust, although she also seemed to desperately try not to moan. A small amount of cunt juice trickled down her thighs, so there was some arousal, while Bird Hoofs cock worked its way in and out of her pussy.

The unicorn snorted frustrated and pulled out for moment, displaying his 8 inches. "Work your hips, kid!", he snarled, smacking the pegasus´ buttocks. "I didn´t pick you up the streets, so you could lay like a dead fish. Move!" With these words he plunged into the tight snatch again, earning a pained whimper from Scootaloo.

"Fuck you, fucker!", spat the young girl, refusing to take part in carnal act and looking at him with a hateful glaze. She grabbed the end of the desk to stabilize herself and tensed, as if she was trying turn into wood herself. "That wasn´t...ugh....part...of the fucking....deal!", she spat defiantly.

Bird Hoff only huffed. He grabbed the young pegasus and lifted her up, resting her body against his portruding belly. His horn began to glow in a sickly green aura and from his desk a sheet of paper levitated over. "The deal was that I would leave you alone, as long a you get good grades, bitch! Does this look like a good grade to you!?" His pace began to increase and began to punch his dick even further into the small snatch. "I found you in Manehattan, when you were whoring yourself in those fucking garbage-alleys. I protected you from the police. I took you in, gave you food, gave you clothes, gave you LOVE!!" He was beginning to work himself into rage, his hips moving like blur and spit flying from his mouth in all directions. Scootaloo cried out in pain, as he pinched one of her nipples and tears were running down her cheeks, although Zexis could see, that her cunt was dripping. "And that is how you repay me? You wanna end like your mother? Forgotten in some dark alley, drowning in drugs and pressing a child out your cunt? Because thats where you gonna end up if you. Don´t. Fucking. Learn!" He punctuated every last of his word with a hammering of his prick. Then he seemed to reach his peak and quickly pulled out of Scootaloo, holding his cock over her face, before finally unleashing a barrage of jizz all over her mane. The pegasus shut her eyes and tried to pull away, but Bird Hoof held her firm.

Then, after he was spent, he let her go. Scootaloo stumbled away, falling down. Without saying a word, she tried to get the semen out of her hair, while her eyes were directed at Bird Hoof, full of fear and hate. He didn´t seem to notice or didn´t care and sat down behind his desk. Then he looked down on the ravaged filly and sighed. "Damn, I needed that."

"You really think you can do this forever to me?", spat Scootaloo, tears again welling up, "They will find out. And then they will hang you up upon entrails!" She shivered for anger.

Bird Hoof wasn´t intimidated. In fact, he looked bored. As if they had this conversation already a bunch of times. "And you will be disgraced. You know what the law says about whoring, slut. Especially with minors. They gonna throw you in jail. At best, you´re never gonna find a job. And everpony in Ponyville will know you as the little whore.", he said calmly.

His eyes wandered over her naked body, her flat chest, her thin waist and her taunt, tight ass. Zexis could see his penis rise again. As could Scootaloo, who swallowed again in fear. But Bird Hoof didn´t touch her yet. He looked tired and bored. "But you´re right, I cannot do this forever. If it were going after me, I would have found a new toy already. But I´m stuck with you. Because you are the only mare in town, who I can fuck, without calling the cops on me. But it´s just not enough. Not enough." He stood up. His flabby belly bouncing. "Get up. I can´t sleep with an erection."

Scootaloo tried to crawl away, but Bird Hoof grabbed her slimy mane and threw her on his desk again. She whimpered, but finally relented, parting her legs, while looking away from her rapist. Bird Hoof snorted. "By now, you should have learned to enjoy this. You are only making this harder for yourself."

Zexis meanwhile was sitting with held breath under window, holding his raging boner. What was he supposed to do? That was the hottest thing he had seen in the last days, but he wasn´t sure how to proceed. Should he alarm someone? Should jump in and help Scootaloo? Or could he join with this stallion of similar mindset and gain a new ally in Ponyville, while also finally getting some fuckmeat?

He was torn. But he also needed to come up with a decision soon...

Saved and Bound

It's time to do something incredibly stupid, something that will probably get you noticed by every pony in the town, and make a bunch of friends at the same time.

Everyone knows how dangerous the Everfree Forest is, and that window just happens to be looking directly into that dangerous forest.

First, Zexis, this is important, control your urge to whack off, that will come later.

Second, check the window, obviously it's low enough that you can see through, can you open it silently?

(If not, find the closest rock and throw it though the window.)

Third, and most importantly of all, KILL BIRDHOOF.

Do the right thing and help scootaloo from that scum of unicorn and burn bird hoof deal for her.

THe mirror shines, and an alien being steps forward, wreathed in flames.

"Zexis my boy, you've done a fine job. But it's important to keep in mind one simple thing. It's much easier to be a tyrant that is loved than one that is feared." The demon says with a cruel smirk.

"It would be wise to encourage Scootaloo to confide in you. Make up some cockamamie about knowing a tough situation. Promise to relieve the problem. This will deprive you of relief immediately, but it is smarter."

"Second order of business is getting rid of this...filth. Even in the lower realms, harming children before they...mature lands one in the deepest pits of Hades. I suggest finding a spell, or even use the Suggestion Powder under the guise of gaining an ally. With time and effort, you should be able to not only repress his disgusting desires, but, with time, get him to confess, all without implicating Scootaloo as a whore and putting her in your debt. It may seem tempting to gain an ally and access to Scootaloo's body, but trust me when I say that allies like this...pig, will only hamper your success. Whether it is by wanting to know your tricks, or eventually betraying you, or both. Slime like Bird Hoof isn't fit to be on your heel, let alone by your side."

"As someone deeply connected to the three children, I'd suggest informing Twilight Sparkle, perhaps even gathering evidence with a camera. With any luck, she'll gut the pedophile for you before he can utter a word."

"Above all, remember this, boy. It is much harder to dethrone a benevolent dictator than a feared tyrant. Doing this may not only put Scootaloo in your debt, but it might also give you access to the entire orphanage if you play your cards right. So be careful, take the slime out of the picture and look like a hero...So you can make them love you in other ways behind closed doors. Hehehehehe...AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

if you gone to kill Bird Hoof make it that it looks like a accident. you do not want the police or law enforces to be on your trail.

Zexis eyes were practically glued to the window, as he saw Birdhoof entering the young filly a second time. The unicorn didn´t waste time trying to get a slower pace going and instead hammered away, rocking the table and causing Scootaloo to cry out in both pain and pleasure. Rage filled the zebra, as he saw the pegasus getting defiled in front of his eyes. He didn´t know were exactly it came from, but somehow this scene filled him with inexplicable anger. This bastard got to pay!

He took off his shirt and wrapped the cloth around his right arm. Then he smashed his protected elbow against the glass, which shattered on impact. The noise startled Birdhoof, who stopped in his movement, to look up. His eyes got wide as he saw Zexis reach through the broken window, unlock it and jump in the room. Cursing he pulled out of Scootaloo, who moaned at the resulting friction, and desperately reached for his pants. "Wait, I can explain..."

Further he didn´t get. Zexis fist crashed into his muzzle and the impact threw him in the ground. The zebra grabbed him by his collar and tossed him against his desk. The thing toppled and Scootaloo let out a small shriek, as Birdhoof fell over her.

But Zexis wasn´t finished. While the fat unicorn layed groaning on the ground, holding his bloody muzzle and the young pegasus crawled away from him, the zebra reached for one of shards of glass. He picked one up, whose edge glittered with sharpness and walked slowly towards towards the bleeding rapist.

When Birdhoof realized Zexis´ intentions, he tried to crawl to Scootaloo, no doubt trying to use her for protection. Zexis snarled at that cowardice and ran up to him. He grabbed the unicorn at his neck and yanked him away, throwing him against the wall. Birdhoof squeaked in panic and held his hands over his head. "Please, I beg you. Spare me. By Celestia, I do anthing you want!", he screamed.

...BZZZT.... Click!

Well this is about what I expected, we need to fixed this situation quickly and not get the authority involved. Kick down the door, (after you have check it to make sure that it is possible if not then knock very loudly and when the door opens force your way in), then politely say hello to Scootaloo and Bird Hoof, avoid looking directly at Scootaloo and ask her to get dressed and go to her room while you have a talk to Bird Hoof. If Bird Hoof tries to say anything make full use of your dominant personality to shut him up, also suggest that you have pictures and evidence of what he has done to other previous orphans like Dinky. Be confident and dominate, the situation demands that you do not let Scootaloo or Bird Hoof say a word without your permission.

Once you make sure you are alone with Bird Hoof inform him how disappointed you are that he allowed himself to caught in this situation, that this is the act of a novice. Make a suggestion that you are part of a larger group of people who are changing Equestria for the better and that they had planned on letting him join but it is clear to you that he is not worth it. However you are a reasonable stallion and are will to give Bird Hoof a second chance if he submit to your authority and makes a binding oath to Eros in Body, Mind, Heart and Spirit (The name of your leader). This oath should included that he does not mention the about is oath to anyone other than you and those involved in the organisation that you introduce him too. He will also follow all your orders you give him in both wording and spirit. Do not let him leave or give him any room to get out of this situation until he swear his allegiance even if that means you have to beat the living shit out of him. Once he has made the oath give him an order to leave Scootaloo alone for the time being, he has fuck that up enough already you will be handling her from now on.

He will not be allowed to do anything sexual for at least two weeks at this time if he has obeyed he will be rewarded. He is also gather information on all possible candidates to join the organisation but will not approach them in any shape or form both males and female are to be on the list, we are an equal opportunist organisation after all. Lastly he will allow us to hit him and give him a black eye when asked what happened he is to say he was clumsy and fell down some stair or that he ran into a tree or something like that.

Once this is done go to Scootaloo room and sit next to her provide some comfort and ask her about how she got into this situation. Listen to her story and only say comforting words to her, if she ask what going to happen tell her you have dealt with Bird Hoof and he will not be touching her any more but she will still have to live with him cause if this get out she will be in trouble due to the stupid purity act which is the furthest thing from purity you have ever heard. When she bring up she use to be a prostitute make a comment about Equestria being a backward country when she ask about your comment or when it is appropriate explain that where your from a prostitute is one of the most well respected professions in your culture. That they have wealth, status and power(Make them appear to be like geishas from old Japanese culture) and that everyone in your village are given lessons from them when they are ready and those that do extremely well are taken in as apprentice if they like. Maybe the current leader of the prostitutes in your village is a pony who had to leave Equestria cause her cutie mark was sexual in nature and Equestrian laws would of prevented her from doing what her cutie mark told her.

Once she is calm down offer to come back tomorrow and talk some more and bring some tea so that you can talk to her more and make sure Bird Hoof follow through with his promise.

The key to this plan is to to be in complete control of the situation do not let any one question you or answer back and do not let them take the initiative. We are in control and it about time we put our dominate personality to use.

your sincerely

Well Zelix,

You got a big decision to make. I would say you need to get Dirt Hoof as an ally. I realize that this would be a big risk, but can you really send the only other stallion in Ponyville, that has the same mentality as you do, to jail. He knows this town and may be able to help give more ideas about how to corrupt everypony. Don't make this friendship public though. It could hurt your reputation.

On another note, great job with getting the Flower Trio under your control. Do more suggestions on them and let's see if you can get yourself some fresh pussy.

Also good job with looking up laws and history. We will be able to help out with ideas with the more information you give us.

Well, my dear Zexis, it seems that you have a tough choice to make...

Tough for you, that is. The best choice would be to report this, however, as that would allow you to make 'friends' with Scootaloo. Making friends with Scootaloo is vital, as she has a sister-like bond with the Element Of Loyalty; Rainbow Dash. Having Rainbow's aproval will be invaluable in the long run.

Hello? Hello? Mick, is this on? It's recording? Okay.

Ahem.

A letter to the Zebra avatar designated Zexis Chikelu.

Dear mister Chikelu,

I am here to advise you against the selection of one mister Bird Hoof as a potential ally.

While such a decision may potentially lead to short-term results in your favour, more specifically the free use of a youngling as a vessel to relieve your sexual tensions, you would lose much public reliability, as it is noted within the local community that Bird Hoof is shady and mistrusted, so any association with him in such a light would reflect badly on you.

Furthermore, should his transgression ever come to light he would be all to eager to throw you to the guards as a scapegoat, and assuming you don't find yourself arrested, you would more than likely be run out of town.

However, should you attempt to save the filly, questions will be raised on as to why you were, for want of a less unsavoury word, lurking around the orphanage at that time of night, and while there are any number of excuses, you will doubtlessly become the victim of gossip and hearsay, which can be almost as damning, and that's without factoring in the potential criminal charges of Breaking and Entering and/or Trespassing, abduction and potentially assault.

My recommendation is to find the local authorities immediately and give them a 'revised' explanation of what happened and ask Scootaloo be turned over to your care until a better home is found.

This will leave you with the appearance of an upstanding citizen who openly opposes the sexual exploitation of minors, but bring one of your stronger sources of opposition within immediate access to the powders, thereby furthering your research into its effects on minors.

After all, when venturing into a largely unknown area of research, it is best to test all of ones limitations, as I'm sure you agree.

Signed,

The Director of the Randomocity Program.

The red mist over Zexis eyes began to dissipate. Maybe it had been Birdhoofs plea or maybed something else. Anyway, he was somehow able to think straight again. Killing this....bastard wouldn´t help him. Heck, in the worst case, he would probably get arrested for murder. No, this situation called for a different solution. He looked down on the beaten stallion, still the shard in his hands. "Why should I let you live?" His voice was strained. He was barely keeping himself from yelling.

Birdhoof quivered, but in his eyes shined a ray of hope. He licked his lips. "I....I can help you. Whatever you want. You´re this zebra fellow, right? I heard about you. I can....I can..." His eyes flickered through the room, trying to get something, that would keep this zebra from killing him. Then they settled on Scootaloo, who was cowering naked in the corner, her eyes wide with fear. He pointed his fat finger at her. "Her! You can have her! You are pent up, right? I can see it. Use her. She won´t tell anypony. She can´t. Use that little whore as you much as..."

A backhand from Zexis shut him up again. He was tired of the rambling of this spineless bastard already. Then his eyes went to Scootaloo. Thye traveled over her tight ass, the bruises on her rump, the flat A-cup breasts and the semen-stained purple mane. Then they lingered on her face, took in her fear and desperation. He remembered her arousal during the raping. The wetness between her legs, she didn´t seem to notice, was still there.

"Get your clothes and go to your room. Don´t tell anpony, until I come to you.", he said. His voice was firm and full of authority. The young filly looked at him and after his word finally sank in, she nodded. She gathered up her clothes, threw a last, fearful look towards Zexis and the cowering Birdhoof and left the room.

Zexis turned back towards his victim. He now had a choice to make. He could get this rapist reported to the local authorities. That would certainly earn him some points within the community and help with his reputation. On the other hand would it also reveal Scootaloos past, which would maybe get her arrested, but most certainly ruin her social life forever. Something she would never forgive him. It was also not assured, if his story would be believed, considering the prejudice towards zebras here.

The second option was to make Birdhoof into his ally. He didn´t like the guy. But he managed to turn the pesky pegasus into a subservient pleasure slave. Sure he didn´t do a very good job of it. But for an amateur, he showed promise. There was also the fact, that he got access to a number of resources, as the head of the orphanage. And he could get Zexis closer to the kids in this town, making corrupting them that much easier. But it wasn´t clear, if he would make a good and reliable ally. It wasn´t hard to believe, that he would turn against Zexis, once he got the opportunity. And the zebra wasn´t sure, if he wanted to be associated with that creep.

Birdhoof was watching him with wide eyes, as Zexis pondered over these options. Then the zebra made his decision.

"Alright, here is the deal. I won´t rat you out, and in turn you´re gonna help me.", he said. Zexis sat down on the chair, who had survived the fight and layed down the shard. He figured, that he didn´t need to make this "alliance" public. That, and he needed allies in this town. Sure, Birdhoof was not the best material, but you had to start somewhere. This guy didn´t need mental conditioning or drugs. If Zexis could give him what he wanted, which was simple sexual release, he would help him on his own. And he didn´t had much of a choice anyway. It would also be the best option, for getting Scootaloo on his side or better said, below his groin.

Birdhoof blinked several times. He didn´t seem to comprehend the situation. "Wha....helping with what?"

Zexis grinned, showing his teeth. "Corrupting Ponyville, of course.", he said, "The way things are currently going cannot go on. All these stallions being curbed of their natural rights. All these mares denying themselves their pleasure. I want to change that."

Finally Birdhoof seemed to realize, he wasn´t going to die tonight and relaxed a little. He still was confused, however. "I...don´t get it. What do you mean changing?"

Zexis rolled his eyes. "By whatever god...I want stallions like you, to live the life they should actually have. Not creeping around, trying to find whatever relief they can get. Things like tonight only happen, because you can´t indulge in these all so natural urges." He lifted himself up and walked towards Birdhoof, who immediatly pressed himself against the wall. Zexis leaned close, his stare intense and with a commanding presence. "Work under me and you can fulfill your every wish." He grinned. "You see, now? I just want to help you."

The unicorn sniffled. His hand touched his bloody muzzle. "You have strange way of showing that.", he murmured.

Zexis snorted. In his eyes, once again, was a glimmer of his earlier anger. "Because you were an idiot! What would have happened, if it hadn´t been me? What if someone less...understanding would have catched you? Have you any idea how lucky you are?" He leaned back. "I just wanted to show you, what would happen, if someone else had seen you. A lesson, if you will."

Birdhoof blinked again confused. He looked at his muzzle, the toppled desk and the broken window. Then he nodded. "Yeah.....I guess that makes...sense."

Gained skill: Smooth tongue

Zexis grinned victorious. Birdhoof was pudding in his hands. The guy was so intimidated and relieved, that he wasn´t dead yet, that he would do anything, currently. He needed to capitalize on that. "I am going to give you two choices. You can either work under me, liberating Ponyville from this sexual repression or...you can refuse and try to continue your miserable existence as pedophiliac rapist." He glared at the unicorn. "It goes without saying, that the last one will lead to an rather unfortunate....ending."

Birdhoof swallowed. A drop of sweat trailed down his forehead. "I...I think, I´m going with option one.", he said meekly.

A smile crept up Zexis´face. "Then its a deal. I hope this will be beneficial partnership for both of us. For your sake.", he said. Then he gave Birdhoof his hand and helped him to his hooves. "For now, you should stay low. That means, no creeping around, no leering and do not touch Scootaloo."

"What! But I...." Birdhoofs protests died in his throat, once Zexis glared at him. He shrunk back. "I...I mean, yes. Of course. Whatever you say. She won´t have to worry about me."

The zebra-stallion nodded and turned towards the door. "Have a little patience. Before the end of this, I will make sure, you have your fill of fuckmeat.", he said, opening the door. Then he remembered something. "Where is Scootaloos room again?"

"Third one to your left.", mumbled Birdhoof, trying to finally pull his trousers on.

"Thanks", said Zexis. "And do not forget: You only live because of me." Then he walked out of the room. Birdhoofs pale face made clear that the message had sunk in.

...

The corridor was dark. Behind the many doors was not light and it seemed that many of the rooms were uninhabited. Which made sense, Birdhoof was not so stupid as to conduct his nightly fucksessions in tightly packed quarters. Instead he had isolated his and Scootaloos room, from the rest of the occupants. Which also had the added bonus, that nopony had heard the commotion.

Behind one door was light. That was, where Scootaloo slept, Zexis realized. He stopped before the room and knocked. When no answer came, he opened. Scootaloos room was spartanic, to say the least. Beside a bed, a wardrobe and a desk with a chair there wasn´t really much more. In one corner layed a pair of well used rollerblades and the wall over the bed was plastered with posters of a cyan mare with multicolored mane. Scootaloo was lying on her bed, still naked, and just rubbed her mane with a towel. When she saw Zexis, she dropped the towel and tried to cover her body with her hands. Her eyes were lifeless, her demeanor defeated.

Zexis leaned against the door and crossed his arms. After a while of silence he asks: "Are you not gonna say anything?"

Scootaloo looked at her naked legs and shrugs. "What is there to say? You saw everything. Probably heard enough, as well. I´m done for. Birdhoof is going to jail and I´m going with him." She began to shiver and wrapped her arms around herself. "Everpony will know what I have done. What I am. They will hate me. They will be disgusted by me. Nopony wants to be friends with a slut." Tears began to trail down her face and she sobbed.

"Well, I don´t mind being friend with a slut.", said Zexis calmly.

Scootaloo stopped crying and stared at him. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and fear. Then her expression grew hostile. "Don´t fuck with me! Dou you really think this is the time for a joke.", she said out loud, with a mixture of anger and repressed tears.

But Zexis didn´t flinch. "I´m not joking. I don´t care, if you are a whore.", he said sincere. He wasn´t lying. Scootaloo could be, and probably was, considering the absence of competition, the greatest slut in Ponyville and he wouldn´t mind. In fact, he liked it. "Listen, where I come from, you would not be so bad off."

The anger faded once Scootaloo began to understand, that Zexis wasn´t lying. Still, there was this disbelief. "But I lost my virginity!", she said, "I get fucked by own caretaker! By Tartarus, I whored myself a few years back!"

"And I could honestly not give a fuck about that.", said Zexis. He walked towards Scootaloo and sat beside the naked filly. The pegasus was trying to skid away, but there wasn´t enough room on the bed. "And you know why? Because it is not your fault." Scootaloos ears perked up on that. Zexis was on the right trail. "I mean, how could it be? Did you ask Birdhoof to rape you?"

She shook her head.

"Did you ask those guys in Manehattan to fuck you? Did you ask to be a whore?"

Again she shook her head. "No, I....didn´t." She looked up, he face showing her insecurity and fear. "But why does that matter? I...am not pure anymore."

"Oh, Scootaloo.", said Zexis and warpped a arm around her naked shoulder. He could feel she was cold and she shivered upon his touch. "Who cares about that? Are you any less off a pony, because of the state of your pussy?" She blushed at his words, clearly uncomfortable with ease he talked about this. "I know how hard this must be. Living in this land, where everpony judges you because of something you had no control over." His words were sliding down his tongue with ease, worming their way into the ear of the young vulnerable pegasus.

She relaxed a little bit. "You don´t even know the half of it. When Birdhoof made his demands...what was I supposed to do? What could I do?"

Zexis nodded understandingly. "You couldn´t have done anything. You were trapped in a system that had no place for ponies like you.", he said, "But it doesn´t have to be that way."

The filly frowned confused and looked up. "What do you mean?"

Zexis smiled friendly. "Where I come from, Prostitution is a honourable profession and while I know that is not the case in Equestria, your situation is similar to a few whores I know from home." On instinct, he leaned closer and whispered in her ear. "You wanna know what their secret is?"

Again Scootaloo shivered, but she didn´t pull away. A sliver of curiosity could be seen, rushing over her face.

A grin grew on Zexis face. "They accept it." He stood up and pointing towards her naked body, running down his hands on the shape of her hips. "They do not fight their destinies, nor deny they themselves the pleasure of it. They know they are whores, sluts even and they relish in it. Striving to achieve the pinnacle in the arts of the flesh. And most importantly, they are happy with it." He could see, that the gears were turning in Scootaloos mind.

She blushed heavily and pulled her towel over her body. "I...I don´t think, I can do that.", she whispered. The headstrong, snarling pegasus was gone. After Birdhoofs abuse and now Zexis influence, all her barriers had been lifted. She was naked, literally, before his eyes. Zexis decided to go one step further and grabbed the towel. With a strong pull, he ripped it out of her hands. "This...", he said, gesturing over her lithe, small body, "...is not something you should be ashamed of. You are fine, the way you are. Even if you are a whore." Especially if you are a whore, thought Zexis.

Scootaloo took her towel back, but this time she didn´t used it to hide behind. Instead she looked down her breasts, a hand lingering on a erected nipple, deep in thoughts. Then she shook her head. "I...I don´t know....", she said quietly, "This...all of this...is so sudden. I...need to think about it."

Zexis nodded. Behind his tolerant facade however, he was frustrated. He had been so close! Scootaloo had almost given in. But it seemed that the equestrian indoctrination ran strong through society. At least, his words seemed to have left an impression on her.

Still, it was time he changed the subject. "Don´t push yourself. Anyway, I have talked with Birdhoof. He will leave you alone now." She looked up again, fear coming back. Zexis held up hands, to calm her. "Don´t worry, I will not report this. Your secret is safe with me. I made him promise, that he will play nice."

"Do you think he keep that promise?" Scootaloo looked twoards the door with resignation.

Zexis shrugged. "If he doesn´t, I will find a way to keep him in line. You have nothing to fear from him anymore, I will make sure of that." The lie came easy over his lips. He had concluded, that he needed Scootaloo to trust him more. If he could get her to bind herself towards him more, she would be far more receptable for his ideas. The best scenario would be, if he would be her only pillar. If she could trust nobody but him, her shackles towards Ponyville and its "ideals" would break.

He put his shirt back on, took Scootaloos pants and threw it on her bed. "I´m going now. If you ever have a problem, don´t hesitate and come to me." With that, he walked towards the door.

Before he could open it however, two thin arm wrapped around his belly and he could he feel a warm, naked body press itself against his back. "Thank you...", said Scootaloo. "I...really misjudged you, Zexis." With these words she let him go.

Zexis grinned and then walked out in the dark corridor. If you knew, my dear., he thought, If you just knew....

Author's Note

Now, this had been an interesting chapter to write.

The comment-section had been pretty torn up, what the best action would be. I had kinda aimed at that, with the last chapter, but the activity had still suprised me.
Which is great. A good discussion is the best way to determine, how Zexis will react. The more comment, the more options I have.

In the end, I decided to literally flip a coin between the most sensible and popular options. The outcome is what you can see here. I will probably do this only if there is a tie, like this time. So don´t feel discouraged and continue writing your suggestion.

On another note, the next chapter will be an interlude. The first Q&A-Session with Eros, to be exact. So please write down your question for the god of lust in the comment section. Suggestion for Zexis will taken into account in the next chapter, so keep that in mind.
I will repeat that again, to be clear: ANY SUGGESTION FOR ZEXIS IN THE NEXT CHAPTER! This one here is only for question for the Q&A.
Eros will also explain the skill, that has popped up and provide some additional information, so keep your ears and eyes open.

Other than that, enjoy. :twilightsmile:

First Interlude

Tartarus, Eros Sanctuary

Deep down in the infernal prison, below the last plane of Sin, away from prying eyes and ears, was Eros. The fallen god stood in a huge pool, filled with water and was currently scrubbing his well toned body. The intensity in which he did that, was close to downright fury and his face was contorted with barely held back rage, as he pressed the sponge into his red fur. "Fucking dog and his fucking tongue!", he cursed. When one would look closely he would see, that part of Eros mane was coated in saliva and there were faint marks of teeth in his right buttcheek. "When I ever got out of here I will skin this bloody mutt and..." Eros muttering was interrupted, when the golden mirror, the Corruptor, which layed on his bed, began to emanate a green light.

Connection established!

Eros looked at the device and his wrath dissipated. He took a deep breath, washed out the last dogspit out of his mane and got up. As always he didn´t bother with clothes and instead let his impressive sexual body breath free. Although the effect was somewhat diminished by numerous bite scars on his legs and upper body. His aura picked up the mirror and brought it before his face.

"About time you showed up again.", grumbled the alicorn, "Have you any idea how humiliating it is to serve as a chewtoy for Cerberus? Fucking beast wouldn´t let me go for...one, two....three days!" He tilted the device, so the rest of the room was visible. It was in a poor state. The three-headed dog had run rampart in the cavern, smashing everything that couldn´t withstand his power. Shards and splinters layed everywhere and broken furniture had been piled up in a corner. "Hadn´t got the time to clean up.", apologized Eros and walked towards the empty middle of the room. His horns aura got brighter and suddenly the air began to shift, revealing the throne.

"Thankfully, Cerberus is as stupid, as he is strong. I was able to hide both the throne and the Corruptor from him. So our little endeavor here is still a secret.", said the fallen god, as he placed his muscular rear on the seat. "Although there was probably a discharge of energy, that some of the more powerful entities on the surface must have taken notice of. But I wouldn´t worry about that. As long as our avatar succeds in staying out of sight, their suspicions will vanish sooner or later. Speaking of, what is the current status?"

Immediatly the screen filled with words and Eros patiently read, as he got a detailed summary of Zexis´ first few days. Then, after he was finished, a smile crept up his muzzle. "Damn, talk about getting things done. Merely a few days in Ponyville and you got your first victims." A lecherous grin parted his lips, as he looked on the profiles of the Flower Trio and Scootaloo. Then his gaze wandered to Birdhoof. "Although I am not sure, wether this guy will be worth the effort or not." He thought for a while, then shrugged his shoulders. "Oh well, you got to start somewhere. And an ally is always preferable, especially so early."

Once again his horn flared up and a cupboard, which had survived the previous fight, flew open. Eros´ aura grabbed an old, dusty bottle and flew it, alongside an ornate glass, back to him. He popped the cork and poured himself a drink. A black, semi-transparent liquid flowed into the glass. Eros put the bottle back and took a sip. He closed his eyes as he let the flavour sink in. "Aaah, liquified souls. A rarity, both in Tartarus and on the Surface. I keep a few bottles for moments like these. Nothing like the taste of despair and broken innocence.", he said. Then a new line of text appeared on the screen. Eros saw it and nodded. "Oh, yeah. You have questions, of course. Now is a good time as any to answer them. Bring it."

.....BZZZZZT.......Click!

Well it look like you finally have some time to your self Eros. So before you get your self started on anything too pleasurable my superior require me to ask you some questions. Ok let see here name, age, place of birth yada! yada! yada! ....RIIIIIP....Well these question are boring i'll write in some bullshit later. What I want to know is how did you break in that Luna bitch cause that sounds like it be a great story might also be useful when our puppet breaks her in.

I could properly find the story some where in the archives but hearing such stories from the source is always better than reading what the scribes produce, they always record everything in the same bloody monotonous tone. Speaking of from the source could you hook me up with any first edition books of things like the kamasutra or anything of that nature I would appreciate it. Such items can help me rise up the ranks and the higher rank the more time I can have to study my own interest rather than being told what to do.

Anyway I best get back to work. Cause there is no rest for the wicked and I'm more wicked than most. :pinkiehappy:

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

P.S if you have any questions fell free to ask them I tell you what I can.

Eros pondered this, while stroking his chin. "Well, would you look at that. I had no idea that the Archive was willing to support my plan. I thought you guys had strict No-Intervention Rule? Although I admit, my knowledge about you is limited. A library between dimensions is rather hard to spy on, if catch my drift. Anyway, back to your question."

"Back in the day, when I first tried to conquer Equestria, the Royal Sisters proved to be the biggest obstacle. The military was easy to deal with. The ponies were mostly relying on the goddesses to deal with any threats and so their own defences were lackluster. It didn´t take much effort to subdue and break them. However against Luna and Celestia this was a different story. It was actually surprising how difficult it was to conquer the heartlands around their castle in the Everfree and Canterlot. Their magic was powerful and since they dispatched Discord with the Elements, they had gained an advantage against any corrupting force.
Luna was the most active in that time. She would constantly teleport around the land, dispatch her guard and defeat my demons. Celestia on the other hand took to organizing the remnants of the nation. Back then, both of them styled themselves as goddesses instead of princesses and it was closer to their function, if I have to be honest."

Eros was taking another sip and his eyes looked into empty space as he reminisced about the old days. "Celestia was worshipped as the Sun and Fertility Goddess. Ironic, right? She had been more promiscious in the past. Had even a harem of stallions around her. Luna however was the Moon Goddess, and that meant she was also associated with Faith and Chastity." A smile crossed his face, as he looked to the screen. "Why I didn´t go for Celestia? Well, would you believe me, if I tell you, that my chances of success on corrupting her would have been marginally lower because she was a Fertility Goddess? I am not kidding. Because she had experiences with Lust and sexual relationships, it was way more difficult to defile her morals. She was in control of her desires, because she was able to satisfy them, if necessary. Now Luna was different story. She had no experience in such things and society back then demanded, that it stayed that way. The moon was pure and so was she."

"I began slowly increasing the pressure on her Night Guard. That meant, that she was forced to increase her recruiting tallies. That way, I was able the let some of my incubus infiltrate her forces. Then I let them sabotage the campaigns against my forces, which meant that Luna would spend more time on frontlines to uphold discipline and hold my advance. That isolated her from Celestia. Come forth more pressure from me, which in turn meant more recruits, more infiltratores, more stress for our lovely little Moonie. "

Eros took another sip. His massive prick twitchted at the memory and began to rise, as Eros spoke. "Finally I had brought her to the point, where she was barely able to rise the moon. I took the opportunity and disguised myself as her own guard. Thanks to the security leaks, I had created, I was able to slip into the positions as her personal bodyguard. At that point, she was close to her breaking point. I used her momentary weakness and suggested, as her friend, of course, that she should take some time off. Relax a bit, even if its just for a hour. I would take care of everything else." Eros cock was now standing at his full height, quivering in lust over the old success. "That moment, when she relented. It was just for a tiny second, but she actually considered letting go. And that was enough for me. My magic broke through her mental defences and put her to sleep. I then let my Incubus come into her chambers and jack off, coating everything in good thick layer of semen. A few minutes later and the entire room was filled with musk and the stench of lust. After that, I woke her up."

"Any other mare would have gone insane on the onslaught of corruption and sex in the air. Any other would have been at my hooves, driving their knuckles into her cunt and begging me to fuck them. Luna was no such mare. Oh no, she resisted. She even tried to put up a fight, that brave thing. But she was exhausted and confused and I was at the height of my power. I defeated her and held her down for my minions. Then I let them ravage her. I had forced her mouth open and let every single one of my Incubus fuck her head. I made sure they would discharge over her body, to let the corruption seep into her. In hindsight, I should have let them fuck her, so that the change would be permanent, but well.
Anyway, after the sixth incubus, she began to participate. Mumbled something about letting be it over sooner, but I knew the truth. She began to enjoy this. The corruption took hold. The blowjobs, deepthroats and my constant teasing at her cunt began to take their toll. I had been holding her just before orgasm for over three hours at this point and that her drove nearly insane. She couldn´t comprehend all these new sensations, she never experienced something like that before. She had been completely defenceless before my skills. After five hours she began to ask. After six, she begged. And after seven, she screamed for release. She promised me Equestria, the Elements, her sister just so I would finally fuck her. I let her destroy her crown, suck off my subordinates. I even brought in her guard captain, so she could tell him in his face, that she would resign as a princess and become my fuckpet. Everything, so long as I brought her to that one orgasm."

Precum was now dripping of the tip of Eros´cock and he absent mindendly began to stroke it. "I obliged. When I entered her, I could feel her will collapsing. Her brain broke under the most mind-shattering orgasm I had ever produced. Damn, just thinking how her tight virgin cunt had milked me that day...she hadn´t even been able to speak any more. Just babble incoherent, while I restructered her mind with every single pounding. When she came back to some sense, I ordered her to suck of her captain. The poor guy was sobbing at the sight of his goddess jumping on his prick, like a child on a new present. Then he cursed, finally calling her a traitor. Imagine that, it brought her over the egde a second time. Fuck, she even egged him on. Begging him to insult her more. It was glorious!" A laugh shook Eros and his hand stroked over Lunas imagery on his throne.

Then his smile slowly vanished. "Then Celestia showed up. I don´t know how she knew what had happened. I suppose, I had took too long in breaking her sister. Or she had known my plan and used Luna as bait from the very beginning. I don´t know. I just remember, that she had the elements with her and that she then used them to both banish me and my demons, and purge my influence from Luna. My greatest victory was turned into my final defeat." His prick was now lying flat on his thighs, any enthuasism gone. Eros took another sip from the glass and coughed. "Gah, not a good memory. Although I hope, that answers your question and gives you something to show off before your colleagues."

Eros, Demon Lord of Lust and Desire... we require quite a bit of information and do not have a lot of time to ask. The first I must ask is of dire importance.

What is your relation with Discord? If Zecora sensed your touch so easily, he will know the moment he enters Ponyville. We need any and everything that could either help or dam us.

How do changelings work here and what are their powers? If they can feed on lust, we may have another ally soon, and a powerful one at that. If not, we will have to be even more careful. Any hints on finding one would also help so we can go in prepared while they are off balance.

What milestones will we need to reach to chose another boon for Zexis? I can see how we can earn one for his actions, but some challenges will take to long to grant benefits, and be to risky.

What abilities dose Zebra magic have. We have demonstrated an affinity for plants, but nothing extra ordinary. The limits and potentials would help us plan things further.

The Lord of Corruption seemed glad over the change of topic. "Well, lets answer these questions top to bottom. First, I don´t know Discord very well. He was rampaging through Equestria, while I fought Celestia and Luna. His reality warping powers created so much chaos that I was forced to stop my armies and contain his madness. I never met him in person, he was more occupied with the Sister than me. Eventually they petrified him and our war continued."

"Secondly, Changelings are a known quantity. They can feed on many emotions, but love is the most sustainable one for them. Without it they are forced to suffer almost constant malnutrition. Thats why they infiltrate societies and replace lovers, in order to feed. However this also means they lack a culture themselves and only the queens and their female offspring are really self-aware. The drones are comparable to golems, made of flesh. They follow the commands of their queen, keep themselves alive and that is all. Once in a while a drone with Self-Awareness is born. That one is called a Changeling King and it can lead to uniting the different swarms. That way the changeling nation of Zirrrbabwe came into extistence, for example. But this is a exceptionally rare case and the queens usually kill any potential king in order to quell any upcoming rebellion of the drones. Unfortunately that also means, that Changelings are notorious backstabbers and I would be cautious about any alliance with them. Although the prospect of an abundance of lust, which is second only to love, could be very tempting for them."

"On the third question I will come back later. Considering the fourth I would say, that Zebras ability towards magic is an inherently indirect one. Unlike ponies, who channel magic through their bodies, zebras must create foci and other catalysts in order to work their powers. This however means, that any spell and enchantment they create can last for a very long time and can be very powerful, because they can load a lot of energy into one spell. Generally think it about this way, ponies can cast fast, but weak. Zebras cast very slow, but strong. Its one of the reasons, why the zebra nations guard their witchdoctors so jealously. They are able to equip themselves with a shitload of trinkets, amulets and artifact, that can make them into a walking arcane armory. Also with enough training and mental fortitude their affinities can get stronger. Very dangerous. The fact, that such a zebra is currently in Ponyville and skilled enough to feel my influence is nothing good. Although it begs the question what she is doing here. We have to adress that sooner or later."

Eros, I have a few questions for you.

Firstly, do we have the ability to magically aid Zexis as he becomes more powerful. There are quite a few things that would make him more powerful and are varying degrees of subtle and not so very subtle. Things like him getting a horn for more magical capabilities, mutating plants, other blessings for his body like stamina or wings or something someone else comes up with, granting Zexis the ability to speak to us or at least make him aware we are speaking to him and that we see and hear anything he says and does and making others hear our voices too. The last one being very useful for corrupting more ponies.

Secondly, if things get a bit out of control do we have the power to open a portal to a particular part of the immaterium. If the answer is yes then if needed I have a small army of lust filled Slaneshy daemons ready to fuck for all eternity to unleash onto the other side of Equestria. This should give us some extra weeks or even months, depending on whether or not she can outright kill them or when she figures out that the daemons can’t live in the materium without a power source. The power source for these daemons is sex btw, well technically it is excess but sex is the easiest way to get power.

Lastly, why are you so patriarchal. A female can also be a dominant. Excluding one sex, especially when the sex you are excluding is the majority population, will make us a lot weaker then we need to be. Aside from that not all males are dominant or enjoy being dominant.

Also thank you for setting this whole thing up it is rather fun and in the end this will get me a lot of power, if we succeed that is.

Eros pointed at the former questions. "Again, I must ask you to wait. I will explain later. Now your second question: Currently we have not enough power to do something like that. Sorry, Archivist, no Kamasutra for you. And for you Dark One, I would advise against it. We are not under pressure anyway and what I remember about Slaaneshs demons is that they have penchant for rather...squicky changes. I would like to have something to fuck, that doesn´t consist of five legs, one eye and three orifices in the wrong places. Not my stuff."

Then Eros read the last part. He got quiet for a moment. Then he sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "Honestly, I don´t care. I like some dominant females, variation and such. But my main enjoyment is Corruption and Breaking of mares. Its just who I am. That doesn´t mean all my subordinates have to follow that. If someone wants to be under the hoof of a sadistic mare, thats his thing. But don´t expect me to change my way. Can´t teach a thousand year old god new tricks and so forth. And besides..." A grin split his face again. "It seems like there are more than just a few of you, who share my sentiment towards females´ places in society."

*a whirlwind of ash descends from the sky, forming into a skeletal ashling who regards Eros carefully through his mirror* "I've been silently watching up till now. Things are progressing well enough, but they could certainly be going better. Our little meat puppet seems a bit headstrong and prone to rash decisions when pressured. I do have a few questions though. Obviously, we seem to be able to influence his thoughts and actions to some degree. The question is, just how far are we able to intervene? The prospect of having no damage-control seems a huge wrench in our endgame."

*The ashling taps his jaw thoughtfully, the glowing coals of his eyes glinting*

"Another thing, my leige: our toy seems to be learning at an unprecedented rate how to effectively use speechcraft, but there undoubtedly some meatbags that will require more...physical...lessons to become the wanton sluts we all know they need to be. How soon can we see the opportunity to choose some physical traits to augment that process? I hope to have my questions answered, Lord Eros, though I understand if I must be passed over."

*the ashling clicks its jaw before disintegrating and blowing away on the wind*

Eros raised his eyebrow in suprise. "Well, seems like there are still some Ashlings that survived the Second Great War. Always wondered about that." He stroked his chin again. "Personally, I would like to keep things the way they currently are. Greater control of his mind would make Zexis only erratical, if not insane. Imagine how you would behave, if there multiple voices in your head, screaming and ordering many different things. Suggestions on the other hand, make sure he stays on target and remains believable and inconspicuous. But don´t worry, there will be other ways to intervene once we gather enough power."

Hail, Eros.

I hope you've fared well, down there in your little hole. The other Three send their regards; especially War has expressed interest in your past. Would you care to tell us a little about your war with Equestria?

Injustice and I have both been interested in the reason for your male-domination ways. Don't get us wrong, we enjoy it very much! I'm always interested in witnessing a dominant male conquering the minds and bodies of the mares. And Injustice loves to put on a leash and shlick to what you're doing. Do her a favour and explain to the little slut why you put your path into motion, will you?

And like I asked last time: Is it possible for our tool to call upon your power? Can he give blessings in your name, even if he has no idea you're even real? Will your influence grow with Equestria's increasing corruption?

/shouting at something behind him

Alright, alright! I'll ask him! Cold Stars, how pushy she can get. Ahem: Eros, Injustice wants to know how you...

/sigh

... how you stand on the issue of spanking your mares. Including 'on the snatch'. Her words, not mine. She especially likes the idea of Zexis using his plant powers to grow a magical spanking rod.

"Aaand here we got the Plagues of the End. Or the Riders of the Apocalypse. Or Trumps closest friends. I don´t know which name you are currently familiar with. Welcome to the party!", Eros exclaimed and grinned, "Now why am I, the way I am? Well, as a little godling I had traumatic experience...."

He trailed off. Then a glimmer shined in his eyes and bursted into laughter. "I´m sorry, I couldn´t keep a straight face at that. The truth is, I just like it. The world is filled with many powerful monarchs, heroines and what not and its just my greatest enjoyment to push them off their high pedestal and reduce them to the quivering, dirty little pieces of flesh they are. That most of them are female, is just how it is here. You are bound to get...lets say inclined for male dominance here. Considering spanking, I´m all for it. Masochists are my favorite kind of toy, mostly because they get off on the humiliation. And the kind of rods I had back in the day....lightning, thorns, even one that screamed vulgarities, every time it struck someone. Good days. So, yeah. If Zexis ever creates one, you have my blessing. Speaking of..."

Eros stood up and tipped on the screen. It lit up and showed the starting options. On the left corner, one could see a new line.

Corruption Points: 2

Eros pointed at it. "This is the answer to all the questions about blessings and modifications. These points represent the power your actions have generated. Either through gaining allies or expanding your influence. You can spend them on multiple things. You can gain new traits or enhance existing ones. You can also unlock new features of the Corruptor. That last one is currently unavaible, because we don´t have enough points. So, we have to take the first option. The changes made to Zexis are made retroactive, which means, that for everyone excluding us, Zexis always looked this way. So if you want to make him burly and brutish, everypony who knows him, will remember him as such. Its a neat little feature, that will spare us some troublesome explanations."

The God of Lust tipped on the Avatar-Symbol and brought up Zexis profile. "Just choose new traits or spend your points on old ones. The most popular choice wins.", he said and sat back, watching the argument unfold.

Author's Note

Hello,
here I am again.

I hope this Interlude shedded some light on some worldbuilding, which is the main functions of these chapters with Eros. It also serves as our "Hub", where we can level up Zexis and unlock new features on the Corruptor, although that last one will come later. Look forward to that.
The CPs will be generated through how far we get with our corruption of Ponyville. Currently we got with Birdhoof one ally, which is one point, and we heavely influenced the Flower Ponies, which is another. Complete Corruption of a person or breaking their mind will result in more points, while allies will generate points on their own. So that will give you some nice options, in how to proceed.

The Upgrades on the existing traits are stated right beside them and will increase exponentional. That means Lv1 cock (1CP), Lv2 cock (2CP) and Lv3 cock (4CP). Some traits are more powerful than other, thats why they are more expensive to purchase and level up.

Skills on the other hand can be gained through, you guessed, repetition. Lie enough and you will become a liar. Fuck enough and you will get better in bed. Learn enough about alchemy and you will soon create your own potions. That way, we will create our own unique protagonist.

Now to something different. Some of you asked that already, so I will adress it. There is a method, in how I pick suggestions. Usually I go with what makes the most sense, but I also pick comments that react to the current situations. There some commenters who have some grand plans, that zexis should follow and I like that. However it is difficult to pick such suggestions, because they usually don´t relate to situation at hand. Sure you talk how Zexis shall make some potions with genderbending, but how does that help him in defusing an argument with redheart? See, what I mean.
You can have your plans and agendas. Thats fine, I don´t want you to drop them. But keep them in the background and ry more to steer Zexis to his day to day life, until you get him to the point where he can actually follow through with your wishes. My best example are again The GreatDerpsby and potdl. Both of them give solutions for the present and give Zexis some ideas for the future.

Now, don´t take that as a guide on how to write your comments. Instead see it as a friendly advice and suggestions from my side, because I like you ideas and I want to include more. That way, we get more diversity. :raritywink:

Now for the next poll. I would say they are two options for you. You can choose some new traits or enhace current ones. Than you can tell, exactly how you want to spend the points.
For example:
Comment 1= new traits (strong, fast)
Comment 2= current traits (dominant)
Comment 3 = new traits (affinity to magic)

When we get more points, as the story goes on, you can mix these option up, i.e. taking both new traits and leveling up current ones. But right now, I want to keep it simple, so we can start of a little bit easy and don´t make it too complicated.

Thats all from me. I hope you enjoyed this Interlude. The next chapter will be back to Zexis, so feel free to comment as usual. Have fun. :twilightsmile:

Progress

Avatar updated!

Name: Zexis
Gender: male
Race: Zebra
Traits: big cock (racial) + big cock (optional) = huge cock, big balls, Affinity to element (Plants), dominant, charismatic, intelligent

The shadow smiles, "And in the meantime... it seems you may be able to get one of the flower trio enslaved faster than the others. If you show you truly, sincerely, care about her and the other slaves you gain, they'll be that much more loyal to you. ...Sure, it's harder work, but the results are more rewarding if they WANT to serve you out of sincere care for your well-being, instead of only doing so out of fear. And... you may also gain a new ally through one of them soon."

With a smirk, the figure forms another structure, a floating plus that soon gets colored red, "And while exploring town, you can likely double check on your progress on Redheart. You DID convince her to meet with you again, and we can see the results from your manipulations. Perhaps gain another ally in the process. ...Just imagine the amount of females you can gain if you can get a nurse that can slip your potions into medicines, both those in the hospitals and those granted to those wanting daily medicine pills and the like. Could prove very useful towards making ponyville..."

He grabs the plus in a strong grip, it suddenly pulsing as hearts float off it before it floats around him on its own, hearts coming off as he laughs.

"...into your loyal servants!"

After a pause that starts to become awkward, the figure coughs.

"...In the meantime, perhaps you can look through the book you had on forbidden potions. Use the index to learn what pages gender change and mental change potions exist on and study those before heading out to town. Shouldn't take long if you use the index to find just those. It would let you know what ingredients you need for later, which you may find while searching the town, and you may find others to catch your interests for late night reading materials, to figure out other options for planning towards the next day. Win-win, that way."

With a smirk, he bows, "And that is my advice. Best of luck, Zexis."

Ponyville, two days later

With a thud the book was closed, as Zexis looked over his notes on the bed. He had used his time, since the incident at the Orphanage wisely. He had applied for the vacant position at the school. Today he had the appointment with Mrs. Cherilee, regarding that. He also researched a new receipe in his alchemy book. Unlike his first attempt, he got more able in understanding the scientific language of the author and for some reason it became easier for him to learn more. Not that he complained, of course. Written on his notes was now the procedure for a new receipe. The Emotion Hormone Pill. A pill that overloaded the biological hormone production and caused an amplification of desires and a decrease of mental inhibitions. Basically, it made someone really honest, mentally and physically. All the little thoughts and wishes in someones minds would come to surface and depending how strong the dosage was, it could lead to him acting on these desires. A honest stallion could turn into a raving rapist for a few hours. It´s continued usage would lead to permanently raising hormone production, and it seemed more effective than the powder in that regard. However, it wasn´t really inconspicious and the change in personality could be quite dramatic, if overused, so that was a downside. Still, a useful thing and thanks to yesterdays shipment, he had been able to create a whole bottle of it.

Zexis also reinforced and extended his influence over the Flower Trio. At this point, he was confident, that he wouldn´t need the Powder for them anymore, as his commands were followed by them anyway. Although, the extend of that still needed to tested. In fact, that was the first thing he wanted to do today. He looked down on his body. He was bare naked and his prick stood on halfmast. Time to begin...

He walked down the stairs and entered the living room. The girls were already there, preparing breakfast. Zexis took a deep breath. He had calculated it. He was 90 percent sure, this would work. Still, he was nervous. But, if this worked, he would finally be able to blow his load. The possibilty of sexual release after all this time was too tempting. Nothing risked, nothing gained! He stepped into the room.

Daisy was the first one to see him, and her face lit up. Then her gaze dropped and she blushed heavily. Zexis grinned. He had made sure that this charming feature of her, her shamefastness, remained. It was just too entertaining! Roseluck on the other hand reacted not too heavily. In fact, she recognized his presence and then continued her meal. That was also Zexis doing. Unlike Daisy, Roseluck had lost most of her shame around him, as evident by the lack of clothing on herself. When she normally would wear trousers and a heavy sweatshirt, she now had nothing hiding her curves, except her red panties. Her breasts breathed free and her nipples stood erect. She would later put something on, when she would tend to store, but in private she had basically become a nudist.

"Good morning, stud!" Zexis was briefly thrown out of balance, as Lily tackled him from the side, pulling him into a hug. Just like Roseluck she was practically naked, with the exception of a white apron. "Slept well, Zexis?" She pressed B-Cups against his chest and her hands ran down towards his legs, before stroking his inner thighs. Zexis grin got even wider. Lily had been the more bland of the three, so he had adressed that issue, by telling her to be more agressive. That led to her more less becoming something of a...well, slut was the best description of her current personality. She had no reservations about flirting with Zexis and her attempts of seduction had been becoming more frequently. Thankfully she restricted herself to private moments. Mostly, because Zexis had made sure she was only attracted to him. And her now blatant groping of his semi-erect cock made clear, that he succeded in that.

She threw him sultry look. "If not, well you know, I would be more than happy to help with that. If you know what I mean....", she winked mischieviously.

Roseluck groaned at that. "Geez, just fuck him already!"

Daisys blush intensified at her friends coarse language. "Girls, please.", she pleaded quietly, "Can we please not talk about this while eating?" She said, but her left hand was already under the table and one didn´t need to be a genius to know what she was doing. Especially considering her eyes were still glued on Zexis cock.

The zebra smiled confident and pushed Lily to the side, with a small protest from her. He gave a buttcheek a frim grope as an apology and strutted over to Daisy. He positioned himself so that his prick was more or less on the same level as her face, which was now beet-red. She didn´t pull away, however. Instead her nostrils flared and it was clear, that she was clearly keeping herself from throwing herself on Zexis. Time we change that., thought the zebra and turned to Roseluck and Lily. "I think, we should add something new to the morning routine.", he declared.

"And what should that be?", asked Roseluck, while sipping her tea, with Lily standing over the boiling kettle, to fill up the teapot.

Zexis grinned broad and took a chair. Then he propped himself on it, with his leg apart, displaying his thick cock to the mares. "I helped you with your insecurity and paranoia. I think its time you repay the favor." Roseluck frowned and opened her mouth to say something. But then her eyes got glassy for a moment. Then she nodded in confirmation. The suggestions of Zexis were working. "Yes, of course. That makes sense."

Zexis turned to Lily, who was standing with filled teapot and was pressing her thighs together in anticipation. "Today you are going to get fucked.", said Zexis with a commanding voice. Roseluck nodded again and Lily squeaked in delight. Daisy on the other hand gasped in shock.

"Zexis, what....what are talking about? That is...", she stumbled, but Zexis interrupted her.

"It´s about time. Do you think I do not notice, when you are looking at my package?" He propped up his penis, so it was directed at her face. Daisy put her hand before her eyes, but Zexis could see, that she had her fingers apart. "We all know you want this just as much as I do, Daisy. I mean, look at Lily. If I ask her, she would probably jump herself on my cock." He pointed towards the pink mare, whose apron was now stained with a growing wet spot between her legs. She eagerly put down the kettle and walked towards Zexis, with lustfilled eyes. "Stand there and watch!", ordered the zebra. The earth-pony immediately complied, with a quiet whimper. "I am sick and tired of all this waiting. You want to fuck. And I will be the one, who helps you with that."

Daisy hesitated. Her eyes were wide with uncertainty and fear, as she looked to the passive Roseluck and the slutty Lily. Then she shook her head. "I...don´t think I am ready for this. I-I´m sorry. Please....", she stuttered.

Zexis groaned in frustration. It seemed like he had been too negligent with Daisy suggestions. Or perhaps, she had more willpower than he anticipated. Either way, he was not going to be denied. It was for her own good! Once she would get rid of all these anxcieties and fears, her life would that much easier. That, and he would be finally able to blow his load.

He got up and took the bottel, he taken with down. He opened it and pulled out a single pill. Then he walked towards Daisy, who wanted to get up. "Do not stand up.", said Zexis and she lowered herself down again on her chair. He grabbed her muzzle, forced open her mouth and made her swallow the thruth pill.

For a while nothing happened. But then, after a few minutes of tense silence, Daisys breathing began to quicken. She groaned and pressed her legs together, as the juices began to flow. Her nipples poked visible through her shirt and her blush intensified even more. "What is...I...Ooooohhh.." Daisy whimpered, as her hands flew towards her pussy. He fingers plunged into the moist folds and a few seconds later her jeans were completely soaked, as her repressed lust broke free from her mental barriers.

"You have clearly a problem, Daisy.", said Zexis as he approached her. His prick was swinging between his legs and its musk could be smelled in the air. "I just want to help you with it." He was now right beside Daisy and his cock was prodding against her cheek. "But for that, you have to let me."

Daisy shivered. She was now openly masturbating and one could see her distress at this unknown sensation. "I-I don´t know....how?"

Zexis grabbed her hand and pulled them away. "Let me show you." He took her wet jeans and pulled them down, revealing her winking pussy. He then lined up his prick with it and began to slowly prodd. Daisy groaned at that, shivering both in anticipation and fear. Zexis put a hand under chin and looked her deep in the eyes. "Relax."

Then he slowly entered her. He could feel her folds parting around his cock, trying to accomodate this new foreign body. The immense lubrication made that easy and he heard Daisy gasp.

He felt resistance as he approached her virginity. For a short second he contemplated, wether he should just press on. Fucking her hard and strong. But then he decided against it. It was better when she enjoyed the process. It would make her even more willing, molding her into his own needy little fuckpet.

Slowly he pulled out, letting her walls stretch themselves, before going in again.

He repeated that for a while, always coming close on breaking her in and then retreating. By now Daisy was a quivering mess, moaning and panting, desperate for release. Zexis then amped up the game, by grabbing her boobs and massaging them, pinching her engorged nipples through her shirt. He was rewarded with a loud moan and even more juices, that coated his thick cock. Once again he pulled out and rubbed his prick on her winking vulva, as if he was contemplating wether he should continue or not.

"Please..." Zexis looked down on Daisy, as she met his eyes. Her face was contorted in lust and build up pleasure. Her eyes were unfocused, but their look had no longer fear in them. Only desperation. "Please...d-do it.", she begged.

And Zexis complied. He took aim and then plunged his fuck-meat into her hole. Daisys eyes got wide as virginity was obliterated and her first orgasm washed through her mind. Zexis wasted no time and began to thrust into her. Every time he did that, he was greeted by spurt of mare-juices and soon the wet, squelching sound of their hips were filling the room

Her walls were clenching around his cock, milking it and pulling themselves tight around his prick. He grabbed her legs, forcing them apart and propped them over his shoulders, before he hammered with even greater force into her tight snatch.

With every pounding he could feel her body tensing, as orgasm after orgasm was washing over her in waves. Her moans pitched higher and he knew, that she finally became his bitch, his fuckmeat, his little slut.

While he pounded Daisy, Zexis could hear some moans behind him. A look over his shoulder revealed to him, that Roseluck and Lily were now masturbating to the sight of their best friend getting fucked before their eyes. Both of the sluts had discarded their last reservations and were now openly enjoying the depraved act. Lily still hadn´t moved from her place, but her apron was now soaked with pussy juices and sweat and Roseluck had pulled down her panties, while driving her fingers madly into her needy hole. "F-fuck her. Stuff that b-b-bitch!", moaned the red-maned cunt, while she groped her breasts with her free hands. That all made Zexis only hornier and he accelerated his pace, rocking the chair Daisy sat on.

The earth-mare was completely in heaven. Her eyes were rolling in her head, as her moans increased and her arms were resting on Zexis back, her fingers clawing into his striped fur. Zexis breath became more erratic. He feeled that he was near his limit. He wasn´t abe to get his entire lenght into Daisys tight cunt. But his pent up lust, the fact he was fucking a mare in front of her friends and the power he wielded, by melding these prude mares into needy sluts, begging for his cock, brought him to his climax.

With a final, powerful thrust he plunged into forward. His cocks head flared and his ball churned, as they released four days of accumulated cum. Daisy screamed as her final and biggest orgasm fried her mind. Her legs crossed behind Zexis tail, trying to pull him even closer and her back arched back, as her womb was filled to the brim with zebra-sperm.

The pressure forced zexis prick out of her and a stream of white, thick cum spurted out her well filled hole. Zexis panted heavily and looked upon his work. Daisy was barely conscious, her tongue lolling out of her mouth and her eyes up in her head. It seemed like her orgasm, coupled with Hormone Salve, had completely overloaded her brain. Behind Zexis both Roseluck and Lily moaned lout out, as they both reached their own climax.

The zebra took a few steps back. "That....was pretty hot.", he said, still a little bit out of breath. "Don´t you think so, ladies?" Both Lily and Roseluck nodded frantically and Daisy only sputtered a barely understandable confirmation.

"Can....can I have go, too? Please...please fuck me too!", pleaded Lily, who was now sitting in a puddle of her own juices, still having her fingers in her cunt. "I wouldn´t mind that, as well." Roseluck waved her free hand. It seemed both had completely forgotten about the breakfast.

Zexis looked down on his now flaccid cock. As arousing as the thought of fucking the other two was, he wasn´t sure, if he could take it. His heart was still beating like a jackhammer and he was still breathing heavily. He really needed to getin better shape, in order to satisfy his urges. But as it stood now, it would probably leave him too exhausted. And he still had plans for today. "I´m sorry, girls. But we have to postpone that."

Both mares sighed dissapointed. Lily especially, seemed to take it really hard. "Oh come on, please! I can´t go work like this.", she complained, pointing at her dripping cunt.

Zexis smiled at her, before going to the fruit basket and pulling out a cucumber. "That should help you a bit. At least, until I come back." He gives her the phallic vegetable and pats her head. Lily pouted and crossed her arms. Zexis sighed annoyed. "Oh for fucks sake! Fuck yourself!", he commanded. The mare looked at him shocked, but once again his suggestions took hold, her eyes glaced over and she reluctanty took the cucumber. She then drove the vegetable in her wet snatch and began to pump it in and out, all the while moaning like the needy slut she was. Zexis nodded satisfacted and turned around. When he walked by Roseluck he her ruffled her head and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Take care of the shop and make sure you are all presentable for the costumers. If everything stays quiet, I will help you, when I come back.", he said and his mare-slave smiled and nodded. Then he walked out of the room. Behind him, he could hear Lilys high pitched scream, as she got herself off and Daisy delerious lust-addled mumbling. Today was a good day...

.....BZZZZZT.......Click!

Thank you Lord Eros that was positively delightful and I can think of a few colleagues to share it with any lets get back to work shall we.

Now for the choice of upgrades I think that one point should go to intelligent and the other to charismatic.

The reasons I suggest these particular upgrades is to help us counteract the racist stigma that seems to surround male Zebra as well as increase our chances of getting the alchemy job at the local school. Also both of these skills will be of help Zexis in general as one will hopefully allow us to learn new things more easily and the other will help us interact with ponies we have not yet met.

Also as tempting as it is to increase or gain new sexual perks I believe they can wait until we have a more secure power base as these particular perks might increase suspicion on us. As for the other perks they are also very good but i think they are to specific and I think having a strong foundation for our character early on will give us the most befits in the long term.

Now as for what Zexis needs to do he must continue his treat of the flower sister and Red Heart, but I think we should start changing RedHeart suggest so that we can offer her as a reward to Bird Hoff in order to keep him loyal. When we have our meeting with the local teacher we need to try and slip some of our powder into her drink this should guarantee our employment as well as start training a new piece of fuck meat.

As for Scootaloo I think we have to give her a bit of space and wait for her to come to us, she is nearly a will slut and if we press to hard we might become less willing. However we should make an effort to make our self available to her so that she can easily approach Zexis in order to do that we should visit the orphanage in order to check up on Bird Hoof and give him some instructions on getting us some information about other individual we might be able to recruit or any dirty secret he knows about other ponies.

...

At the Hospital

"I ask again: Why am I here?" Birdhoofs belly wobbled, as the fat unicorn was trying to keep up with Zexis´brisk pace. The zebra groaned. It was about the fourth time, Birdhoof had asked this question and the answer hadn´t changed. "I want to show you something. Have patience."

But the dirt-green stallion wouldn´t hear it. "I have work to do, you know? An orphanage is not managing it by itself!" Then he saw, what building they were heading for. "Wait, the hospital!? Oh, nonono....I cannot deal with Redheart. We are not on good terms.", he said and turned around, "Whatever you want to show me, it is not worth having that bi-I mean, mare judging me again. You know, what she said to me last time? That if I want to be part of the community, I should take care of my eating disorder! She called me fat!"

Zexis rolled his eyes and grabbed his "ally" by the collar to prevent him from running off. "Trust me, I know how that feels. The part about Redheart, at least. But I promise you, she will not be a problem this time."

Birdhoof looked at him skeptical. "Has that anything to do with your...." He looked around nervously, making sure nopony was listening in. "...Liberation?"

Zexis took a deep breath. He began to regret not turning in this guy. Birdhoof had absoluty no spine. Only in private, when he could abuse someone weaker than him, he gained some confidence. But, as Zexis learned in the last two days, he had some positive sides on him. The unicorn had some excessive knowledge about all the dirty little secrets in town, like for example that the schoolboard regulary received bribes from the Rich family, that Filthy Rich himself aimed to be mayor and that the Apple Family was in deep debts. So, he was a good source of information and the empty rooms on his floor could be used for other, more nefarious things. But before Zexis could take full advantage of that, he had secure the loyalty of this guy. Thats why he made the effort of regulary visiting Redheart. And now, he only needed to convince Birdhoof to come and see the fruits of his labor.

So he hid his frustration and instead smiled reassuringly. "In a sense, you are right. But you have to come with me, to see what I mean. I promise you, you will not regret this."

The unicorn still looked unsure, but in the end he nodded and followed Zexis.

...

They stepped in the foyer. As usual it was empty. Except for the lonely desk at the other end, where Redheart sat. The white earth-mare was sitting behind her desk, sorting her patients files. At first glance nothing seemed out of the ordinary. But when one looked closer, one could see that something had changed with her attire. The nurse was still wearing her usual uniform, but for some reason it seemed to be at least two sizes too small. Her ample breast were pressing against the material, even though she had opened up a few buttons, revealing an enticing cleavage. And her hips were straining the material, forcing her to continuously adjust her uniform, so it wouldn´t reveal her buttocks. That, coupled with some white kneesocks, gave her a look of proffessional sexyness. It wasn´t quite fetishwear and could still count as an official nurse uniform, but it was definitely a far cry from her previous attire.

She looked up, as Zexis and Birdhoof approached her. "Ah, Mr. Chikelu! I have waited for you.", she said happily and stood up. One could hear her clothing protest at the sudden movement. "You said you wanted a full-body examination?"

"Actually, its not for me, but for my friend Birdhoof, here.", said Zexis and pointed to his companion. He then bended over towards Birdhoofs ear and whispered: "Say this: I want a close check-up from you, slut-bitch!" The unicorn looked at him, like he was insane, but Zexis just nodded toward Redheart. "Trust me."

Birdhoof swallowed nervously, but then turned toward the nurse. "I want a close check-up from you, slut-bitch!"

As soon as the phrase was uttered, Redhearts eyes glazed over. Then she blinked and smiled brightly. "Of course, Mr. Birdhoof. If you would please follow me.", she said and walked towards one the doors, that lead to the treatment rooms. While she did that, she also quite obviously swayed her hips every step, wagging her tail around her bubble butt. Birdhoof looked at her slackjawed. Zexis chuckled. Then they followed her.

The treatment room was empty. Redheart directed Birdhoof towards a desk, he should sit on and then excused herself, so she could prepare. The fat unicorn turned to Zexis. "What...did you to her?", asked he.

Zexis grinned dirty. "My secret. For your information, I just lowered some of her inhibtions and planted that Pass-Phrase in her. So whenever somepony comes in and says that, her mind will switch to programm of suggestions I gave her."

Birdhoof frowned in confusion. "What do you mean, suggestions?"

His answer was answered, as Redheart came back into the room. When Birdhoof was slackjawed before, he was now close to a heartattack, as he saw her. The mare had discarded her uniform and was now wrapped in only her lacy red undergarments. Her cap was gone, her hair flowed free and she had put on red lipstick and thick make-up. In a sense, she now almost looked like a proffessional whore. Not she knew that, of course. "For a full body...examination I must ask you to undress. Fully.", she said in a sultry tone, while her hands run down Birdhoofs stiff body, before beginning to unbutton his shirt. "The patient must feel comfortable, after all."

Zexis desperatly tried to hold in a laugh. He had managed to instill in Nurse Redheart the suggestion of an actual nude-service! It hadn´t been easy and had required three strong doses of suggestion powder, but in the end he had succeeded. He just had to make her believe it was for the good of her patients, and voila! Of course, the pass-phrase made sure nopony would trigger that behaviour who wasn´t in-the-know. And considering how prude and polite everpony in Equestria was, there was no chance somepony would say this phrase accidently. And just like that, he had a private hooker!

Birdhoof was still staring at the naked Redheart, as if he wasn´t sure, if he was dreaming. Then however, as she had pulled of his shirt - all the while pressing her luscious, naked body against his - a small, unsure smile crept on his face. "Ehm....what exactly does this...full body-examination include?"

"Other than a full check-up?", asked Redheart, "Well, that depends on you wishes, Mr. Birdhoof. I will do anything to make you comfortable." She looked to Zexis and winked at him. "Mr. Chikelu can confirm the quality of my new methods. He was the one, who gave me the idea, after all."

Zexis grinned lecherously. "It´s true. Except for her pussy, everything is acceptable.", he said to the stunned Birdhoof. "After all, she only wishes to make you comfortable. And what better way to do that, than to satisfy your sexual urges?"

Birdhoof looked between him and Redheart, still not quite comprehending. "Why not her pussy?", he then asked.

Zexis grimaced at that. "Well, I´m still working on that. She is apparently very adamant on preserving herself for marriage. I have however convinced her to do the rest." He demonstratively grabbed the nurse buttock and squeezed, which earned him a happy yelp from the mare. "As you see, she is happy to help. Thats my gift for you, Birdhoof. See it as a confirmation of my...skills. And as a promise for more to come."

Birdhoof finally seemed to get the situation. His eyes traveled down Redhearts voluptuous body, her stiff nipples and her slender hands, that were fiddling with his trousers. He licked his lips and cleared his throat. "I-I would like...a blowjob.", he said.

Redhearts smile faltered and Zexis began to fear his commands hadn´t been strong enough. But then it returned with new vigor. "Of course! I will do anything to make my patients happy." She pulled Birdhoofs trousers off and his eight inch long cock sprung free.

Without hesitation she began to lick his shaft, running her tounge down his meat-stick, covering it in saliva. When she got to the top, she playfully nibble at the tip, sucking on his urethra. All the while she used her hands to methodically examine his lower body.

Birdhoof groaned at the skillfull carressing. It didn´t take long for him to grab Redhearts head and direct her mouth closer to his cock. His desire was clear. He wanted a blowjob and he wanted it now!

A command the nurse followed obediently, opening her mouth and taking in the stallions prick. Birdhoofs ecstasic moan revealed, that she continued her tonguework, but now she also bobbed her head in a steady rythm. Her cheeks hollowing with the sucking motions and her lipstick smearing itself all over the unicorns cock. Zexis was a little bit astonished how skillful Redheart was milking this guy, considering that she had never done it before. Seemed like she had innate understanding what would be pleasurable and how to apply it.

After a while Birdhoof shuddered and his buttcheeks clenched, as he reached his climax. Redheart wanted to pull away, but his hands grabbed her head once more and forced his cock deeper down her throat. "T-take it, bitch!", hissed Birdhoof, as his prick invaded Redhearts esophagus. The nurse struggeled for air, her eyes watering, smearing her makeup. Then the stallions balls released their load, filling the slutty mare with white spunk. Redheart moaned as her pussy squirted in excitement, letting herself be used as a cumdump from the most despicable stallion in Ponyville.

With a deep breath Birdhoof released the nurse, who coughed and gasped for air, as his prick finally left her throat. "That...was...amazing", panted Birdhoof. He turned to Zexis, who was standing in the corner, grinning triumphantly. "And I can have...her?"

The zebra nodded. "As long as you clean her up, before you leave. Also don´t forget to say Thank you for your service, cunt. That deactivates her programm. Wouldn´t want this to get public, right?" He pointed at the still cowering Redheart, who was fingering her vagina in a glaze.

Birdhoof looked down on the mare and nodded. "Don´t worry. I can be discreet, if I want to. Managed the last six years, after all." He took a deep breath and then grinned dirty. "She is not my type, but damn if that wasn´t better than any fuck-session with Scoots." He chuckled, as if he just made a good joke. Zexis reminded himself, that this guy was still evidently despicable. Useful, easy to manipulate, but an utter asshole.

Well, good company, then.

"Do not forget, you owe me one. I want to being kept posted about every small rumor, every dirty secret you get to know. I will also probably need some of your rooms. Are any of them soundproof?"

Birdhoof scratched his head. "Sure thing. After today, you can bet your striped ass, that I am helping you. If every mare in Ponyville is going to be like little Redbitch here? Then I am your stallion." He pumped out his wobblying chest and grinned. "Now, I have a basement thats pretty secluded. Needs to be cleaned however. Haven´t been there for ages. But it should fulfill its purpose."

Zexis nodded. Good news! That meant he not only had a secret storage room, he also now had something to fall back on, if things didn´t go his way. Even if it was just a place to hide.

He got up from the wall and turned towards the door. "I will be going now. Still have an appointment at the school. You want to remain? Have a little fun?", he asked, with a look at Redheart, who was patiently waiting for new instructions.

Birdhoof grinned. "Well...yes. Don´t worry, I clean up after myself. But its not everyday I have willing bitch. I am going to take full advantage of that!" He turned to Redheart. "Hey, nurse! Whats your verdict on my condition?"

The white mare paused for a second, then pulled out her notes. "Well, you have very healthy sex drive, if a little pent up. You are probably not getting regular release, which is to be expected. You also seem to suffer under a severe case of eating-disorder. You should do something against that."

Birdhoof smile dropped from his face as fast as Zexis began to laugh. Red with embarrassment and anger, he pulled Redhearts hair and brought her to him. "Just for that, you gonna deepthroat me again, understood?", he hissed.

"Gladly!", beamed Redheart and got to work.

Zexis chuckled and got to the door. "Have fun you two."

...

[At the school: Cherilees Office

Ah yes, teachings... Zexis, once you feel comfortable that the Flower Trio has internalised the knowledge that they exist to make you comfortable, seek out miss Cheerilee for the teacher's assistant position. Cheerilee is a fine bitch, but she might already have caught the eyes of another. Don't move in on her body too much.

Move in on her mind instead. Engage her. You can bond over knowing the Crusaders. Cheerilee loves them, even if they can exhaust her with their antics. If the Crusaders like you, Cheerilee is likely to like you too!

Ask her about what the job requires. Ask her about any troublesome students—a few come to mind—and what kind of authority you are allowed in the classroom. Be respectful! This is Equestria, she will not understand that fillies needs regular punishments to keep them in line! For the most unruly, you could ask if you are allowed to give them additional tutoring.

And, should you see any students interact before or after the talk, make note of who acts how towards whom. Already existing crushes are much easier to convert to the true Zebrican ideal. Before long, you'll see all of these fine fillies be adorned with ownership markings, showing the world they are their masters' property!

It was evening, as evident by red-tinted sky. The sun was slowly moving on the horizon. From his seat Zexis could that the fillies and colts were leaving the school, some of them alone, other accompinied by friends or family. He saw Applebloom, hugging a tall orange mare with blond mane. A country-beauty with a confident, if a little weary look on her face. Even through her worktrousers Zexis could see her well-toned ass and her strong thighs, which just bristled with power. A headstrong mare, to be sure. Perhaps Appleblooms sister? Applejack was her name, as he recalled.

A polite cough brought his thoughts back to the matter at hand. Mrs. Cheerilee was sitting face-to-face to him, and was looking through some papers. The earthmare was not a bad looker herself. Suprisingly young for a teacher, not older than thirty, with wide hips and a nice two toned pink mane. She was most likely the wet dream of very colt in her class. "So, Mr. Chikelu. You are applying as the new alchemy substitute- teacher? Can I ask what your skills are?", she asked. Her voice was femine, but had mature, dominant touch to it. A mare that willing to put her hoof down, if necessary.

Zexis decided, that he should probably take it easy this time. He wanted this position to get closer to the impressionable kids. Flirting with Cheerilee could come later. "Well, I am the son of a zebrican witchdoctor, so I have all of basic knowledge. More praxis than theory, but i am confident that it will not be an issue. I am alos versed in biology, and partially chemistry as well, if a lesson needs some additional supplements." He kept his tone proffessional, figuring that this would be the best option with this mare. "Of course, my knowledge is nothing compared to Zecoras expertise, but it will be more than sufficient for the time I will be working here, I believe."

It seemed like his strategy worked. Mrs. Cheerilee nodded in confirmation and made some hooks on her paper. "Thats good to hear. We of course can now only take your word for it, but we will see for sure on Monday, when you will have your first lesson." Then she put the paper down and smiled. Her serious demeanor dropped, as she sighed. "Honestly we had been kind of desperate, since Mrs. Zecora ended her lessons, so we are glad for your willingness to take over the job.", she admitted, "And while I know that there will be some...reservations on the school council for your appliance, I personally am very glad you are helping us out. I only heard good things about you. The Cutie Mark Crusaders in particular seem to like you. And thats good enough for me."

Zexis put a relieved smile on his face and scratched his cheek. "Well, Scootaloo seemd to be a little bit...headstrong upon my arrival."

Cheerilee nodded knowingly. "Yes, Scootaloo has...trust issues. But she has been getting better over the last years. She usually just needs some time." She thought for a while. "Here is an idea. How about we put in the alchemy class? That way, you can work out your differences directly.", she suggested.

Zexis cheered inside, but on the outside he kept a skeptical look. "You sure about that? I don´t want to impose my problems on you." His voice was positively dripping with concern.

But Mrs. Cheerilee just waved her hand dismissively. "Oh, don´t worry. She needs to repeat some biology lessons anyway, since she failed her last test. This is helping us both."

Zexis nodded slowly, seemingly only now agreeing on the idea. "Well, if you say so.", he said. "Then I can just say, that I wish us both a good cooperation!"

Mrs. Cheerilee took his hand and smiled. "And I wish a good time in Ponyville, Mr. Chikelu."

"Please, just Zexis. Mr. Chikelu was my grandfather. And my father was old man."

The mare chuckled. "Allright, I will keep that in mind, Zexis."

...

With that business concluded, Zexis walked out of the school. He saw Cheerilee on the Black Board, taking down the application note. Another successfull day. He got a nice fuck with Daisy, cemented his alliance with Birdhoof and got a new job. His hand reached down in his pocket, feeling the bottle with the truth-pills.

Author's Note

Aaand done!

As usual my commentary: For Redhearts scene I let myself be inspired by some suggstion in earlier chapters. I am quite glad how the result looks and i´m sure it will serve as good foundation for new ideas. Now, keep in mind, that Redheart is not fully broken as evident by her virginity. But her will is eroding and I wanted to show that.

The reason for the small timeskip is, because I want the story to pick up a little pace. After all, it is a clopstory and I wanted you guys to have some fun as well. :twilightsmile:

Now, for the Guys Night I will be taking into account both new suggestions and the ones in the previous chapter, because so many of the commenters had ideas to that and I don´t want all that work to be useless. But feel free, to add some new ideas. Maybe the new drugs will help in that regard.
In some respect, the Guys Night can be counted as a Boss level. A social one, but difficult nontheless. Considering that it is actually really fortunate that the most popular option was Charisma and Intelligence. Lucky you!

Also as an additional info, among others there will be Spike, Discord and Big Mac present. After all, these three started this wohle Guys Night thing.

And that finishes my biggest chapter to date. I hope, you enjoyed it. ^^

Guys Night

Zexis,

I would say that you should just take it easy on guys night. Just try to learn as much as possible about the others there and try to learn about other ponies in town through them. You might be able to use 1 pill on each of them to loosen their tongs. But do it at a time where you are completely sure nobody will find out that you drugged them. Spike might not even need to be drugged to give you a lot of information about Twilight or about himself. Big Mac might need something to loosen his tong but that is mostly because he almost never speaks.

If anything you need to make Spike into a friend. He can get you easy excess to a lot of things inside the castle and easy excess to Twilight and her secrets later on. If you can get Twilight as a friend through Spike and then corrupt her the entire town will be a lot easier to take and corrupt. Also much, much, later on you can use Twilight to send a letter to Celestia and or Luna and lure them into a trap. But that is for much later. Easy excess to the library is also a plus.

Befriending Big Mac will get you closer to both his sisters and will make it easier to corrupt them but won’t do much ells.

And Discord………… just get on his good side and everything might be fine….. or not…. or he will even help you.... You never know with that guy.

Good luck Zexis and remember we will be watching.

A darkened figure hums. A connection of sin and decedence... so many of the others would want to speak. "Gabriel, consider this a favour... you shall be the first." The figure notes, key strokes leading to the screen fading into static

The static doesn’t last long as a bit of a high pitched whine sounds off briefly. In the picture now is an immense figure in equally immense armor red and pink, almost an eyesort really. Compared to the busty serfs that surround him, he'd seem to be twice the size of a human... and currently fiddling with what seems to be a guitar that is took the name of 'axe' literally, a dragon maw at the other end of it. After a moment the figure looks up, helmeted for the moment. "By the Dark Prince, he actually connected me." He stated his voice a deep rumble. "About time that crafty bastard did so. Hello Zexis... or should I say his Avatar? Regardless, allow me to introduce myself. Around here they call me Brother-Captain Gabriel, Sound Lord of Slaanesh... but others call me the Bloody Note. I'm one of a few that managed to spot this little project of Eros' and I'm going to help you."

"To start, the guys night. Discord by far will be your toughest opponent, but he's also only focused on one pony. Do not make a move to threaten Fluttershy. I cannot stress that enough the moment you put her in danger, you lose. His favor only seems to extend as far as her however... do try and use that charm of yours. Chaos can be surprisingly easier to get on your side with words rather than force. Spike has already shown weakness to you... the mare Rarity. If you are going to mix him in on our side, thenshe will be the tool you need... or appealing to his greed. And the Stallion.... strong of body, stubborn at times, but could also be the key to the Apple Family. Charm him, learn more ablut him. As much as I love a great conquest... only a fool goes on stage without writing their song first."

The Chaos Lord chuckled, strumming a string on the twisted guitar, a high pitced sound emerging for it, sounding almost like a cry of release. "Plan well Avatar. You and I may not speak again for some time."

Another staticky burst appears... and then the screen goes black.

An orange and blue light light up on opposite sides of a room, highlighting a figure in shadow.

"While your... taming of Daisy worked out, I would advise against such rough measures, unless no alternative presents itself. Not everyone will... tolerate such sudden advances.

"With the teaching assistant job secured you can start in on teaching the younger generation... your own path. However do not start right away; learn the current state of affairs and then look for ways to proceed. Weak links and possible pawns and allies should be located.

"I would also urge you into finding out more about the state of the purity laws and how they came to be. Given Eros' earlier story it could be possible that his... taming of the Princess Luna led to the laws being implemented. Celestia is the ultimate goal, and while you are a long, long ways off, learning about her should begin sooner then later. Particularly with her student, Twilight Sparkle, being a local.

"As for guys night, prob the table for where their... relationships are at, but be wary if Discord arrives. Discord will be the major wildcard in Ponyville and dealing with him will need to be done, sooner or later. If he is not present then attempt to bond with Spike; his position at the Castle of Friendship could be a boon; if you play the cards right.

"Lastly, find a way to become... friends with an Element of Harmony. Rarity would be a prime choice; you can go and claim you are looking for additional clothing. Maybe even suggest Zebrica fashion to her. Applejack through Applebloom is also possible, but the Element of Honest is good at detecting lies. You may not want to buck that tree, just yet. Additionally, Pinkie Pie is another random wild card; keep an eye out for her.

"Also, find a gym. A few workout may help with your... stamina. Assuming there's nothing in your book."

The lights shut off.

The Drunken Punch was a small, cozy pub. It was nestled between two shops at the end of the market and time and weight had pulled these houses together, so that their roofs were almost touching each other over the tavern, making it seem, as if this pub was trying to vanish. It was certainly a unique place, with not so many costumers at night hour. Most of them were on the other, more livelier side of the plaza, with its restaurants and cafe´s.

Zexis stepped on the doorstep and looked inside. The room was empty, filled with tables and chairs which wood was worn dark from time and use. Behind the bar sat a violet mare, who looked like she was in her late thirties. Her eyes were glazed and Zexis could see a bottle at her side, that was half full. A dirty rug layed in a glass on the other side, that looked like it haven´t been clean for an eternity. Above the bar was a sign that read: Keep the barkeep drunk!. Dim, orange lights gave it all a warm, cozy atmosphere.
All in all, it looked the closest thing to a dirty dive hole that Ponyville could have. It was secluded, it was private and the barkeep apparently too drunk to really care about the place. Why the guys met here, instead in a better establishment Zexis didn´t know, but it gave him an advantage. Nopony to interfere with his preparations.

Seeing as he was the first one to arrive, the Zebra immediately got to work. He had already formulated a plan, how to deal with this "Guys Night" and how to reap the possible benefits of it.
He walked towards the bar and knocked on the light greasy wood. The barmare blinked lazy and looked up to him, still hugging the bottle. "Yeeeaah...? Whatcha want, strangeeeer...? It was clear that she was completely drunk. Most evidently of that was her breath, who was so thick with alcohol, that Zexis was sure it would caught on fire, if he held a candle on it.

He waved the stench away. "I´m here for Guys Night.", he explained, in a slow voice, "I would take the usual offer and add a beer to it. Where do the other sit usually?"

The mare took a while to get his words through the fog in her head. Then she slowly nodded and pointed towards a big table at the other end of the room. "There."

Zexis nodded. "Thanks. Now do you need help with..."

He trailed off, as the barmare stood up in fluid motion. With precise movements, of which even high class martial artist woul have envious of, she grabbed a half dozen bottles from the cupboard behind and flung them in the air. At the same time, her right hand placed a series of glasses in a strict stakkato on the surface, with the last one being a heavy beermug. Then she swung around catching the bottles as they came down, one by one, pouring in each drink and placing them back into their original postions, before finally hitting the point below the beer mug with her knee, causing it to jump into the air, her left hand catching it, placing it under the tap and slowly pouring in a Pils.

"..........buuut clearly you don´t need it."

...

Zexis was now sitting at the table with five glasses and a beermug. Two of the glasses were filled with stalliongrader wodka, one was cider, one seemed to be Cloudsdale Whiskey and the last one was a swirling array of colours, that sizzled and seemed to boil, but was cold to the touch. The latter one, Zexis was not sure, if he had seen the Barmare actually mix it. Her movements had been at times too fast for him to follow. A look back to the bar however revealed, that she was still clearly completely shit-faced, sipping from her bottle, while staring off into the distance. Zexis shook his head in confusion. This mystery he had to solve another time. Now, he needed to figure out which drink was Discords.

He had taken the time to find out who this guys actually was. Turns out he was an ancient spirit of chaos who terrorized Equestria one thousand years ago, was then turned to stone, had broke out of this prison a few years back, then got petrified again, then released and reformed, before betraying the ponies for Tirek the Destroyer and was then pardoned after the latters defeat and seemed to know live in Ponyville. Or a parallel dimension right next to it. No one was really sure.
One thing everypony agreed on however was, that he was highly unpredictable and only really kept in check by the pegasus Fluttershy.

That meant for Zexis, that he had to keep this guy on his good side. There was no known limit to his powers and unless someone took him by suprise or had equal power, like a goddess, there was no way of defeating him. The risk, that the drug wouldn´t work on him or work too well, was too great. Zexis couldn´t take that. He would instead try to probe into the other guys life and secrets with the Hormone Pill and keep Discord happy and oblivious.

He came back to the drinks, his eyes laying on the fizzling rainbow abomination. If he was a betting-stallion, that was probably Discords drink, as Zexis wasn´t sure if anypony but a Chaos Spirit would be mad enough to try to drink this concoction. Which left four other glasses. He took out four Pills and dropped one in each drink. They would dissolve quickly and together with the alcohol, they would loosen the tongue of their drinkers quickly. For everyone else it would just seem, as if they would get drunk rather quickly.
Then he waited...

...

It took only a few minutes before the door to the Drunken Punch opened once more. In stepped Big Mac, ducking under the doorframe before bringing his massive body in the room. At his side was Spike, who looked even smaller in comparison. He saw Zexis and greeted him. "Good evening, Zexis! Figured you´re already here.", he said. Then he walked towards him and sat down at the table, grabbing a glass with wodka, with Big Mac following him and taking the Cider.
"May I introduce: Big Macintosh. Big Mac for short.", he said pointing at the red giant. "Big Mac, this new friend is Zexis Chikelu. He arrived in Ponyville a few days ago."

"Pleased to meet you." Zexis gave the stallion his hand. Big Mac took it, giving the Zebra a crushing handshake, that he probably thought was light. "....now, where are the others?", Zexis said, while holding is broken feeling hand.

Close after he said this, another stallion stepped into the tavern. This one was a dark grey pegasus. He too had a muscled, powerful build, but while Big Mac was more about strength, this stallions body was clearly trained toward speed and agility, with powerful wings and a lean chest. His face sported a confident, cocky grin and he threw a wink into the Barmares direction, who was snoring currently.

Him followed a earth-pony stallion, who was as tall, as Spike small was. Almost reaching Big Macs height. Where the red applefarmer however accented this with muscles, that provided him appropriate width, this guys was as thin as a beansprout. His coat was yellow and he sported a hilarious square jaw, that sprung from his face like a cliff. He had big bags under his eyes and seemed exhausted. Nevertheless his face lit up, as he saw the others.

Both of them sat down at the table and Spike introduced them. "The yellow one is Carrot Cake, or as we call him: Mr. Cake. He runs Sugarcube Corner with his wife. And the one, with cocky attitude -"

"Hey!"

"- is called Thunderlane, Wonderbolt-Reservist, Wannabe Mare-Fooler and all around decent guy, if you get to know him." Spike grinned at Thunderlanes dismissive snort. "If he gets on you nerves, ask him about his date with Rainbow Dash. That will shut him up."

After Zexis introduced himself to the others, he looked at the table. Mr. Cake had taken the second wodka and Thunderlane was already sipping on his whiskey. That meant they were still on short. Now where was this Discord?

"Indeed....where could I be?"

Zexis jumped at the sudden voice in his head. His chair fell over and the beermug flew to the ground, spilling his content all over the floor. A cackling laughter danced through the air, as the Zebra stared in fright behind him. Yet, the space was empty.

"Not quite, my friend. A little more to the left. Or right. Or maybe backwards, deep deep down?

Now Zexis was in panic. He could hear the one who was speaking to him, but whenever he moved, the voice would come frome another angle. Sometime loud and clear, sometimes not more than whisper, but always clearly behind him. Spooky was a rather weak term, to describe it.

Thunderlane on the other hand rolled his eyes. "Come on, Discord. Don´t freak out the new guy. Come out, before he pisses himself."

"But its so much fun, seeing him dance. Maybe I can bring him to do a Jive?"

"Eenope.", said Big Mac and knocked on the empty chair to his right.

Spike nodded. "Big Mac is right. Stop messing around, Discord."

A sigh blew out of Zexis right ear, with big bold letters in the air. They floated for while before dissolving into smoke and out of the ear stepped a strange creature. It had the head of a goat, two mismatched horns, a lions paw, an eagle claw, a dragons leg, a bull hoove and a snake tail. Its eyes were red and of different sizes and a sharp tooth stuck out of its lips, that were curled into a cheeky grin.

Discord, the Lord of Chaos, jumped to the ground and grew back to his original height. He snapped his fingers and the Beermug flew back on the table with the spilled beer falling back into it. The chair jumped back an his feet, ramming itself into Zexis knee joints, who fell back down onto it. Then Discord sat down.

"I was just rummaging around in our new friends brain. Quite the nasty place, I must say. You should really tidy up.", said the draconequus, while snipping away some dustclouds on his shoulders.

Zexis broke out in cold sweat, as he saw the knowing grin on the mismatched face.

A grin that fell immediatly, as Spike snorted dismissive. "Yeah, right. Don´t let him take you for ride, Zexis. Discord can´t read minds. Fluttershy forbade it."

"And who said, that I obey that?", challenged Discord. Out of empty air a leather jacket and a bike appared. "After all, I´m a rebel by nature. Only me and the road!" He blazed away in a smoke cloud, before reappearing in his chair. "What makes you think otherwise?"

"The fact, that you are still living in Fluttershy´s cottage.", countered Mr. Cake, who smiled in his glass. "That and the fact, that your still wearing her sweater..."

It was true. Zexis just realized, that the draconequus wore a hand-knitted green sweater with the words "Mommy´s Boy" on it. Discord looked down in shock, snapping it hastily away. To no avail, as it turned out, because it just reappeared.

"Forgot about that. Stupid enchanments...", he grumbled, but still patting lovingly the sweater. Then he turned to Zexis. "Fluttershy is not really a spellcaster. But as it turns out, love can sometime provide its own magic." Cue pink sparkles. He then took out his left eyes and held it close to Zexis ear again. "Also, I don´t need to read your mind - boring place anyway - to know what you think!"

Zexis´heart again began to skip a beat. "Really?", he squeaked.

Discord nodded and again a knowing grin parted his lips. "It quite obvious. Your desire is practically walking out of your mouth on its own. Oh, there it is!"

With horror Zexis saw his mouth opening and a string of word tumbling out on the desk. Discord leaned over it and read, what surely would be Zexis´Doom.

"Why here?...Wait thats all!?" The Chaos Spirit looked at the Zebra incredulously. He then dived headfirst into his mouth. "Oh come, there has to be more! Not another boring idiot like Thunderlane - "

"Hey!"

" - where is the good stuff? The secrets, the embarrassments? I thought this night would be interesting for once, not another talk show!" Discord pulled out again, this time with spiderwebs in his horns. "Empty! Dust bins and everything!" He threw his hands in the air.

Zexis coughed, trying to get the taste of a half dozen different creatures out of his mouth. "Well...to be honest, you can´t expect me to be a particular interesting character for someone like you, Discord. I mean, the most I can say about my life is that I know how dry a desert is." Now, that he got bearings back, finally his silver tongue began working again. He remembered that the draconequus was mentally like a child. Maybe he could work with that. "Unlike you, for example. You know, one thousand years old. Battled with gods, ruled a nation, broke out of eternal damnation. What can I offer to that?"

Discord huffed and wiggled his finger. "Don´t come me with flattery, Minority-Boy. You´re right, of course. But you have to do better than that." Still, he let up and sipped at his glass. Literally even, as the glas itself vanished in his mouth with the fizzling drink untouched.

"Anyway...", said Spike, as he brought the conversation back to him. "What do you mean, Zexis, with: Why here?"

The zebra stallion scratched at his cheek. "No offense, really. I really appreciate that you have invited me." He looked around, his eyes finally going to the still drunken Barmare. "But, why are you meeting here, instead of...you know, the castle? I mean, aren´t you the First Assistant of the Princess?"

Spike grimaced at the title. "Was. Starlight took that job. As for the location: After our last Ogres & Oubliettes campaign, we kinda managed to rip a hole into reality. Nothing major, but Twilight essentially forbade roleplaying in the castle after that. Thats why were here. Nopony to supervise, and Berry Punch is quite capable of defending herself."

"Still, that last campaign was epic.", said Thunderlane. "Remember, when Big Mac and Discord found a way to the sixth layer of Tartarus and we had that final battle with Grogar? Stuff of legends!" Everpony nodded. Discord proudly polishing his fingernails.

"Sooo, you´re roleplayin here. It´s that what Guys Night is about?", asked Zexis.

Spike shook his head. "Nah, we´re laying low for a few weeks. Waiting, until Twilight has calmed down and then we will try again. I have talked with Berry Punch already, and she doesn´t mind Discords reality warping, as long as we keep it contained. But for the next weeks we are just gonna drink and chat. Change of pace, you know?"

"Booring, you mean.", said Discord.

"Personally, I don´t mind that.", said Mr. Cake, yawning and rubbing his eyes. "Sugarpie and I are quite overworked right now, what with the twins in school and high season."

"Isn´t Pinkie Pie helping you out?", asked Zexis.

Mr. Cake waved his hand. "She would, normally. But the map is constantly calling her away for a friendship problem, then there is the next party to throw and so on. If she would find the time, that would be great, but I will not force her. Sweetcream and I will manage it, somehow. Maybe..."

Zexis nodded. Then he got an idea. "Well, there is one way to make this night interesting.", he said and grabbed his beer. "Let´s see how long we need, until we are completely drunk."

"Yeah, thats what I want to hear.", said Thunderlane and gulped down his drink in one swift motion, along with the pill. "Lets make Berry Punch happy."

"Eyyup!"

...

"Sooo, you see you´re not only one who acco-co-accomodations issues.", said Thunderlane with a slight slur to his speech, while he was downing his third glass. Mr. Cake was already face down on the table. Spike hiccuped a few time, while Discord and Big Mac seemed entirely unfazed. "When I moved from Manehattan to here...that was an experience, i can tell you."

Zexis nodded. He took a sip from his second beer. Unlike the others, he had taken it slow and it payed off. The pills and the alcohol made tongues loose and he was able to exploit that. "So, they are more relaxed in the west?"

Thunderlane clicked his tongue and waved his hand unsure. "Hhmmmm, sorta. Manehattan was originally a Mareantian Colony that secceded after these old island unicorns raised the taxes too high. So, they were originally not part of Equestria. But, you know the drill. Old enemies, wars and the like and soon enough the Patriots decided it would be safer under Celestias wing, rather than trying to survive on their own. In exchange, Manehattan gets a lot more autonomy than the rest of the country. Including the Purity Laws."

"Yeah, but thats not always a good thing.", chimed Spike in, "Manehattan also has the highest crime rate in the entire country. Drugs, illegal prostitution, poverty. And the town-congress stubbornly stops any attempts from Canterlot to intervene, because they are to afraid of the loss of their independence."

Thunderlane nodded sadly. "Which is the reason I moved away, to Ponyville. It may be not as liberal, but it sure as Tartarus is a lot nicer. Even if my appreciation of the mares seems to be...unwanted."

"Is it really that bad? I mean, there most be some that like that.", asked Zexis.

"Sure, they do. Rarity is always up for a compliment, as long as its classy. And I think Muffin liked it, when I called her my personal sunshine, when she brought me the post last week." He grinned at Zexis. "Maybe you could learn something from me. You know, let me teach some of the higher art of flirting?" He winked.

Spike just rolled his eyes. "Didn´t you forget somepony?"

Thunderlane flinched and then looked uncomfortably in another directions. "Yeaah, I dont know what you are talking about...."

"Rainbow Dash.", came it from Big Mac who chugged down his cider. "Broke your arm, I think."

"Seriously?" Zexis was suprised. "What did you do? Grabbed her ass?"

Thunderlane grimaced, holding his right arm. "Something like that. Got a relationship with her going. Dated her and all. Worked quite well. We both being Reservist, me able to keep up with her speed, she not afraid of my advances. But....well it went downhill, thats all I wanna say to that. I made mistake, she took it hard and thats it."

"If with taking it hard you mean, breaking your arm in three different places and then calling you a pervert loud enough for the entire town to hear, then yeah. Then, she took it very hard." Seemed like the pill worked quite well on Big Mac, as he finally began to speak more. "Another one!", he said to Berry Punch. Moments later a cider glass flew in his hand.

Thunderlane shook his head at the memory. "Can we please change the subject?"

Zexis nodded. He got what he needed. He turned to Spike. "While we are at embarrassing things, whats up with you and Starlight Glimmer? Does she have feud with you?"

"Well, no.", said Spike and swallowed his drink. He too became tipsy now. "Its just that she is smart, powerful and a spellcaster and...." He hesitated.

"....and she is a bitch.", helped him Thunderlane.

"I wouldn´t put like that, but yeah.", said Spike, "You see, she is reformed, like Discord here. Instead of being an agent of chaos however, she is a control freak. Had her own little town, which she brainwashed. Long story, short: Twilight and friends met her, they beat her, she tried to break the fabric of time, Twilight talked her out of it and now she best friends with everypony."

He laughed bitter. "Turns out, that she is still obsessed with control and while she dialed it down a bit, she had no problem taking over my job. She even packed nicely for me. You have it easier now, more free time and so on. Well, that means I am now pretty much stuck with two magic geniuses with no social skills, whose fuck-ups I have to manage, and who couldn´t care less, if the entire press would flip themselves over with the scandals they would get, if I wouldn´t clean up their mess!"

Spike breathed heavily as his last words came out pretty loud. For a while it even seemed as he had grown a bit in his anger, but as he calmed down he shrunk quickly and Zexis wasn´t sure, if his eyes had just tricked him. "Anyway, its not perfect right now, but when Twilight is done with her experiment, I am going to talk to her. Then we will work this out." He took another sip, then placed his empty glass on the table. "Big Mac, now its your turn!"

The red stallion nodded and turned to Zexis. "Financial issues."

The zebra blinked. "Wow, thats....clear cut."

Thunderlane chimed in. "What our big buddy wants to say is, that Apple Acres is currently deep in the reds." He looked down at his glass, his demeanor unusually somber. "Since Granny Smith is gone..."

Everybody got real quiet. After a while it got akward and Zexis decided to move things along. "Don´t you have anypony to help you out? I don´t know, like a loan or something."

Big Mac took another sip. "Rich. At least in the past. But now he doesn´t. Wants a new deal. Get his hands on the Cider."

"Sounds like Spoiled Rich, to me.", said Spike, a rare look of disgust on his face. "She is exactly the kind of pony who would take advantage of that."

An affirmative grunt came from Macintosh, who emptied his glass. "Thats why I say no deal. We should ask Twilight for help. But Applejack doesn´t want to, because she is stubborn. She doesn´t want to admit to her friends, that she can´t manage the farm."

"But you can?", asked Zexis, waving at Berry Punch for another round.

The big stallion shrugged his shoulders. "Would have to try to know that. Know my way around numbers, so I think I know where the problem is. Just need to convince Applejack to hand me the reigns. Granny just never cleared up the inheritance, thats why we fight. But we are gonna manage it. Until then, we just need keep things afloat. Another pair of hands would be good."

He looked at his empty glass. Then turned to Berry Punch. "Refill!"

...

Thunk!

Spikes head landed heavy on the wood. Next to him Thunderlane was lying on the ground, delirious mumbling something like "what an ass...perfect ass..." over and over again. Zexis too was now happily drunk, but still on his senses. He looked to Discord, who had an array of boiling rainbow fluids before him, whose glasses he had sipped away. The Chaos Spirit was uncharacteristically silent. "You know, not drinking alcohol is cheating...", said Zexis.

Discord looked at him calm. "Oh, don´t worry. I am utterly drunk, right now."

Zexis raised an eyebrow. "Really? You don´t look like it."

"He is.", said Big Mac and chuckled. "If he gets drunk, he gets normal. Makes sense, right? Opposite of what you would expect. Chaos and all."

Zexis nodded. Yeah, that made sense. Or not. It was kinda hard to tell at this point.

Discord on the other hand looked at his watch, a normal one. "Oh, look at the time. I have to get out early tommorrow. Sorry, guys.", he said, stood up and grabbed his jacket, which had appeared out of nothing.

Big Mac stood up as well. He was shaking however, clearly affected by the amount cider he drank. "I´m gonna go to the toilet, first." He stumbled towards the piss house.

Discord waited for him to dissappear, then turned to Zexis. "It was...interesting to get to know you, Mr. Chikelu.", he said.

"Likewise, Discord"

The Chaos Spirit put on his hat. "Next time, please try and do not drug everpony."

Immediatly the pleasant fog over Zexis was blown away. "I-I don´t know what you mean.", he answered lame.

Discord raised an eyebrow. "Do you now?" He turned and looked at the others, who where snoring happily. "I mean, I get it. You are new, you don´t know anypony. You want them to play to your rules." He sighed. "I just learned, that that doesn´t work. Sooner or later you have to adapt, you have to change. These ponies make great friends, provided you follow the rules."

Zexis took a deep breath. He reminded himself that this was drunk Discord. He looked at the draconequus, who turn stared calmly at him. "Are you gonna rat me out? I just want to help them."

Discord snorted. "Maybe you do. Or maybe you just keep telling yourself that, so you have an excuse for your actions. I don´t care. I´m drunk, remember? I probably won´t remember much about this evening tommorrow anyway. I will just say this: If you hurt Fluttershy, I will make you pay. Drunk or sober, I will turn you inside out and find the one behind all of this."

With these word, he opened to door and walked off into the night.

Zexis leaned back in his chair and wiped his sweat from his face. He had some quite mixed feelings. He didn´t doubt for minute, that Discord would make his threat reality if he made a mistake. On the other hand was it reassuring to know that the Chaos Spirit wouldn´t intervene, as long as it didn´t involve that Fluttershy mare.

His attention was diverted, as Big Mac lumbered out of the closet. The big stallion sighed as he adjusted his pants and his, as Zexis could see now, impressive prick hang free. "Not a bad package.", he said.

Big Mac looked up. Then he buckled up his trousers and shrugged his shoulders. "If you say so."

Zexis cocked his head. "What do you mean? Don´t you know the average?"

Again the stallion shrugged, before sitting down again. "Grew up in a all-female household. Not a lot opportunity to compare."

For a while everything was quiet. Then Zexis stood up and walked towards the bar. After a minute he came back with two beverages in his hands. "Last round.", he said and gave Big Mac his Cider.

"Prost!", he said and they both bumbed the mugs, before the stallion downed the liquid, including a second pill, that had been placed in there. Zexis on the other hand didn´t drink and instead placed his beer under the table, while Big Mac was distracted.

Then after big guy was finished, he stood up and layed a hand on his jeans. "Wanna know the competition?"

Big Mac looked at him for a while, before it made click. He looked to Berry Punch who was laying below the bar table now, clearly sleeping. He pondered, hesitated. At any other day he would have refused, maybe even be insulted. But he was drunk and two Hormone Pills were in his bloodstream, lowering his inhibitions.

Finally he shrugged. "Ah, why not?" He stood up, pulling the zipper down and freeing his cock. With a heavy thud his package fell on the table. It was a monster. Easily over 10 inches long and that without being erect.

Now Zexis was unbuckling his pants and presented his own prick, who stood at 10 inches erect himself. Big Mac looked at it and nodded. "So, thats the average, huh."

Zexis shook his head. "In your dreams. I got a big one back in my home, and I think that goes double here. Quite honestly, what you have there is a beast. Lucky bastard."

Macintosh looked down at his prick and scratched his chin. "I don´t know. Heard its not about the size. And if say is true, won´t that hurt? If I ever...you know."

Zexis shook his head. "Bullshit. They say that so they don´t have to feel inadequate. The experience I made, and I made quite a few, says pretty clear that you are blessed. Whichever mare is gonna ride that thing can count herself lucky." He grinned.

Big Mac looked sceptical, but then he nodded. "Yeah, I guess you are right. I guess I am lucky." He grinned back, a strange sight on the normally somber face. "Big Mac, huh?"

Zexis laughed at that. Then he got another idea. "By the way, do you already have an idea who its gonna be?"

"What do you mean?"

"The bitc-I mean the mare you wanna get."

Big Mac thought for a while. Again, under normal circumstances, he would have objected at the idea of "getting" a mare. But now he was aroused and his ego was stroked. He actually thought about it. Then he seemed to get it and he blushed through his red fur. "Nah....I don´t...I don´t have one."

Zexis leaned closer, grinning. "You say that, but your face tells a different language.", he said. Then he nudged the big guy. "Come on, say it. Just the two of us. I´m shitfaced. Won´t remember anything tommorrow, anyway.", he lied.

Big Mac blushed even deeper. Then he took another deep sip from his cider. He swallowed. A minute passed. Then a dark glimmer came in his, before grinning lecherously. "It´s...It´s my sister. I wanna fuck Applejack.", he confessed. His hand stroked absentlyminded his dick.

Zexis grin got even wider and he pried deeper. "And why? Don´t you have a fight right now?"

Big Mac nodded. "Thats the fucking point. She is fighting, blocking. I could fix it, but she won´t let me!"

Zexis began to understand. "And that makes you angry. Angry, that she doesn´t understand her place. Angry, that she doesn´t let you handle it. And on top of that, she looks damn nice. Those legs, that toned ass, just begging for you to plunge yourself in it."

Macintosh downed the last bit of Cider, now breathing heavily and openly masturbating. "Sometimes I fantasize just taking her. Ripping of her stupid clothes, taking her in the barn and then...just fucking her, spreading those legs, smacking that ass. Teaching her respect."

"Yes. Letting it out, all that frustration, all that anger. Making her squirm under your firm strong hand.", added Zexis, "In your fantasy, of course."

"Yes, and then I pump her, I beat her and then...then....Applebloom comes in and she-I-I take her and...Ungh!" With a loud grunt Big Mac came to a climax and his beast of a prick unloaded his spunk all over the table. He spasmes three times, pumping each time a huge load on the wooden furniture, coating it white, before collapsing and falling down on his chair, snoring.

Zexis stood up, adjusting his own aroused prick in his pants and took a deep breath. Guys Night had been a success. Sure, Discord was suspicious of him, but that was manageable. After all, he seemed to mainly care about Fluttershy. Zexis himself had found a load of new angles he could work on. And some new informations and juicy secrets he could exploit.

He looked down on Big Mac and grinned. The pill had worked very effectivly. It seemed like the key to it was the emotional state of subject. If one was happy, it would lower the inhibition towards that emotion. If one one was angry, then it would work towards that. And if one was aroused....Anyway, the alcohol would cover up any weird memories of this night, so danger of getting found out wasn´t there.

Then Zexis looked on the table and on the mess, as semen began to drop down on the floor. He sighed. If he wanted to remain unbothered by uncomfortable questions, he would have to clean up...

Author's Note

What a horror to write. I really hate dialog heavy chapters.

Anyway here you have the long awaited Guys Night. I hope it doesn´t dissapoint. I´m just gonna say, this was probably the hardest chapter to write so far, mainly because of Discord, who is really hard to do justice, and my real life, who had decided to throw itself in my face this week.

But I got it finished and am quite satisfied with result. It should provide you guys with new paths to explore and options to follow.

IMPORTANT: Please concentrate your efforts on one path. Juggling multiple projects in the story is both tactically difficult and a pain to write. So do both me and Zexis a favor and focus your efforts on one favourite route, so to speak.

Anyway, I will probably add an extra chapter with data on relationships and Zexis status this weekend, so stay tuned for that. Other than that, enjoy.

Lessons learned

Two lights come on, one orange and one blue, highlighting a figure kept in shadow.

"What a mess... I do not need to explain that we should avoid Discord for now. He might remember at random what happened tonight. Removing him at some point will need to be done, once we've found a way to do so.

"Also avoid Berry Punch until such a time you can tame her. That mare scares me.

"Onto your new friend's... issues.

"Rainbow Dash is the most worrisome to me. To break someone's arm in three places over a touch is too extreme. This mare must be brought to heel, sooner as opposed to later. Attempt to learn more of the event first and then find a way to... Embarrass her over the situation. She's hotheaded and prideful and will not back down from a challenge, presented correctly. If possible ask Dirthoof about what happened and about Rainbow Dash in general.

"Spike's issue should be set on the back-burner for now. I do not feel his... talk with Princess Twilight will go as he wishes; he seems to be the sort that is taken for granted. His resentment will fester on it's own.

"Mr. Cake needs more control over Pinkie Pie, but how to go about that vexes me. She is very random and unpredictable. Simply showing her the issues the Cakes suffer may... correct her.,.. but not corrupt her.

"Big Mac is the odd one out. It is clear he should hold control of the farm; he is the smartest member of the remaining family. He needs control over Applejack and if that controls comes by dicking her, then so be it. You should, once more, ask Dirthoof about her. Either way we need to get her in a position of weakness.

"I advise you prioritize Dash and Applejack first.

"We also learned something new about the Purity laws, even if very little. I must stress once more; we must learn of these laws and how they came about. I apologize about my constant insistence on this matter, but if there is one thing you should know it's this; information is ammunition. The more you have the more you can use, and the better we can advise you.

"I'm also concerned about Zecora. We haven't seen her reappear into the situation yet... I have a bad feeling she's not sitting on her hands...

"For now, carry on. Keep your ears open and your mind sharp."

The lights shut off.

BZZZZZT.........Click!

Well that was an informative gathering lets see if we can break it down into the important facts.

First we have Pinkie Pie who is making Mr Cake stressed out and unhappy due to not doing her job thus failing to bring laughter/joy to a close friend/family member.

Next we have Rainbow Dash who broke Thunderlane's arm while they were going out due to a misunderstanding thus show she has no trust and loyalty to her ex-boyfriend.

Little miss Honesty (Applejack) is being stubborn and lying not only to her family but to herself as well.

Twilight Sparkle the Princess of Friendship is oblivious to one of her oldest friends growing resentment and frustration with his life.

Lastly we have Discord who gave us the do what you like but don't mess with what mine speech.

Well there is plenty of opportunities here not only to corrupt the mares but also core values to the Elements of Harmony. As with all intangible ideas and philosophies one can twist and shape them into meaning anything one desire without breaking or destroying the core concept it just takes a bit a creativity. If we can corrupt the very ideas that these mares have about their elements we could turn their most powerful weapon against them. But first we need to prioritises our targets.

SageBrony07

The Great Derpsby

I agree with these two that Big Mac and Thunderlane should be our first targets but since we do not yet have the power to go after both I would recommend Big Mac first. Not only would it be excellent to have some muscle on our side but we also have the most information about his situation and his particular fetishes which should make dealing with this issue faster than Thunderlane's as we do not have a lot of information about Rainbow Dash or the indecent yet.

Now I believe the trick in corrupting Applejack and sorting out Big Mac problem lie in making Applejack admit that she is lying to herself which should not be to hard to convince her particularly if we can get her to drink so of our special tea. From there we get Applejack to tell us what she wants in a stallion and then start linking what characteristic we can to Big Mac. Once we start this we reinforce the idea that to be truly an honest pony one most be honest about their desires and express them. The only part I can not think of how to complete is how to get Big Mac to join us willingly but hopefully we can just slip him a couple of our "honesty pills" at the right time.

While I recommend focusing on Big Mac that does not mean we should be ideal with our other opportunities we need to lay a little ground work so that when we have the time and power we can move onto these as quickly as possible. For Thunderlane's problem we need more information about the incident it self which we could properly get Birdhoof onto. We also should start corrupting the local authorities and maybe a lawyer so that if the information we gather put Rainbow dash in the wrong we can use them to help make a legal case for Thunderlane it would also give us so good protection if we need it later on. As for Spike and Mr Cake situation I believe just a couple of visit every so often to each of them and suggesting that if they have a problem with their mare they should come to us to talk about it from there we can slowly convince them to our way of thinking particularly if we can give them some of our tea while we have these conversations.

Lastly for Discord we should let sleeping lion lie there is no need to go poking that with a stick anytime soon. While doing all of this we must not forget to finish any of our other project such as finishing of Red Heart training or corrupting Cheerlieeans and Scootaloo. But those should hopefully be part of our daily routine for now so we should not have to actively pursue them.

well that it for now

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

The sound of a wind-chime echoes across a vast cavern and Zexis image appears within the caverns lake .

"You have shown great patience with your endeavors and have gained important information from potential allies." The Ancient One says in a genuinely impressed tone. "But you must remember this: 'To discard a pawn is to discard opportunity.' You might know this already but it never hurts to recap."

It glances at the new prospects of whats to come and grins in anticipation. "Your might want to check with this Big Mac in the morning as to check and see what he recalls if anything of last nights events and use the chance as you see fit. Also it never hurts to see how far your affinity to plants and 'medicine' can go."

They glance at the moonlight shining from crack in the caverns ceiling and chuckle lightly. "If you can, check on your current 'projects' and see there current progress before you completely decide to take up any more work for your schedule."

Moonlight shines across the water as Zexis image beings to fade from the water and the A.O. sighs in disappointment...

"I must go now... but just know we will be watching..."

Slurp....suck..lick...

Zexis awoke with a moan, as his balls contracted and a stream of thick, white semen splashed into the greedy gullet of Lily. The mare laied on top of him, burying her face between his legs, while at the same time plunging her fingers into her dripping snatch. The stallion looked down on her, as she pulled his cock out and got rewarded by a few string of cum over her face. "Good morning to you too.", he chuckled.

Lily didn´t respond at first. She was busy masturbating, before she finally reached a shuddering climax. "Iiiiiih...yees....", she panted, licking her wet fingers. "I´m sorry, I just couldn´t wait anymore.....I needed you" She looked down on her erect nipples, before grinning lecherously, taking her hand to grab one and lick suggestivly on it. "In fact....I would be open for round two..."

Zexis grinned in response. Then he grabbed her by the shoulders and threw her around. The slutty mare squeaked in excitement and spreaded her legs, to give him full access to her dripping cunt. Zexis prodded her entrance with his prick at first, teasing her.

They were in the bedroom of Roseluck. Former bedroom, to be precise. After last nights events with the guys, Zexis had spend the rest of it fucking the brains out of the Flower Trio, specifically Roseluck. He had decided that in order to pursue his new projects, he needed to finish their enslavement. The fuck session last night had seen to that. Daisy had already been broken completely, happily giving him a starting blowjob. But as he had then ordered Roseluck to undress herself in front of an open window (with no one looking, of course), the earth-mare had shwon some last pieces of resistance. As punishment Zexis had fed her some Honesty Pills, while silmustaneously making her horny and then locked her in his former sleeping room. The rest of the night he spent fucking Daisy and Lily, all the while listening to Roselucks desperate moans, as the drugs did their work.

"Hey, are you gonna fuck me, or not?" Lily still waited for him, an eyebrow raised. Zexis smiled however and stood up. "Not yet. I want to know how our girl is doing. Wanna join?" He walked out of the room. Lily pouted dissappointed, but followed him anyway.

They ascended the stairs towards his former room. Zexis opened the door and was greeted with a strong odor of musk and sex. Tied on his bed laied Roseluck. The redmaned mare was a mess, sweaty and exhausted. Her eyes were glazed over and she drooled. Between her legs the matress was soaked through, her pussylips puffy and excited. Her fingernails had dug themselves into the wood, out desperation, not being able to satiated her awakened sexual needs. It was clear, that she hadn´t slept a minute.

The moment Zexis entered, Roselucks head snapped to him and her eyes glued themselves to his crotch. "C-c-cooock....cock..I-i-i neeed it. P-please, I will be good. I d-do everything! F-fuck me! Fuck me!" Her waist rocked upwards, simulating bucking motions. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck....", she muttered constantly in delirium.

Zexis examined her carefully. He had anticipated a reaction like this, but not so strong. It seemed like three pills had overloaded her. Unlike Big Mac, her body wasn´t big or resilient enough to counteract the increase in hormones. A miscalculation on his part. But it still had its upsides. It proved that the pills worked in conjunction with the current hormonal status of the body. Someone who was angry, got angrier and his inhibitions towards that emotions were lowered. Someone who was horny, got even more horny and lost his defences towards it. That meant that the usage of the pills was situational. Valuable information, in order to avoid the wrong effects.

"Oh my, Roseluck..." Lilys voice pulled Zexis out of his thoughts. He saw Lily standing before her friend, with a worried look. "She will recover, right?", she asked him.

Zexis looked upon the blubbering, drooling mess. "Unlikely. But you don´t worry about that. In fact, it´s her just punishment. Now she will enjoy herself as my personal cumbucket and you love it, when she enjoys herself." It was the best, when he seperated the ties between the two now. No need to let personal feelings get in the way of the greater good. One wrong application of friendship, like bringing her to the hospital, and his plan would crumble.

Lilys eyes glazed over, before she blinked and her smile returned. She beamed down at Roseluck and patted her head. "Do you hear that, Rosie? You will be fucked now. Isn´t that great? Zexis is sooo generous." She looked back at him. "But I get my session too, yes?" She made some puppy eyes.

Zexis rolled his eyes, but nodded. "Yes, yes. Once I finish with her and get my chores done, you will be the first tonight.", he assured her.

The mares grin got even wider and she clapped her hands in excitement. Then the doorbell from the shop rang. "Oh dear. I need to get down and help Daisy!", she said, before rushing towards the door.

"Don´t forget your clothes!", remined Zexis her. Then, with a look to Roseluck, he added: "And tell them that Roseluck is down with the flu. Don´t want any uncomfortable questions!"

Lily nodded. "Got it!" She ran out of room. After a few moments, she popped back in. "By the way, the bits are on the dinner table." Then she ran off.

Zexis nodded. He had instructed the girls to give him any of their savings. Everything they didn´t need for the shop, essentials and so on. That would give him some liquidity. Then he turned back to the drugged Roseluck. He moved towards the bed and positioned himself between her legs. "Time to go to work." With these words, he entered her drooling cunt.

And Roselucks mind broke...

Slave gained!

Ponyville Plaza

It was late morning, when Zexis sat down at a cafe at the southern end of Ponyville Plaza. Opposite of him sat Bird Hoof, whiping the sweat from his face with a tissue. The heat wasn´t comfortable for the fat unicorn. Zexis snickered a little bit at the picture of his ally fairing in the deserts and steppes of Zebrica. But he wasn´t here to make fun of the stallion. He wanted information. "So, anything about that incident between Rainbow Dash and Thunderlane?"

Bird Hoof waved his hand non-committally. "Not much, to be honest. There is the thing about her breaking his arm and screaming at him in front of the entire town, but you know that. Other than that it´s just rumors. Nopony really has the full picture, because their relationship had been really private. That means a lot of gossiping and a lot of speculation, but nothing solid." He took a sip from his tea.

Zexis frowned. It seemed like the Elements liked to play their social life close to their chests. Impressive, that they managed that, considering they were more or less celebrities. And he didn´t had the time to worm his way inside all their inner circles. "Then what are the rumors?", he asked.

"Mostly the usual. He touched her, got to bold. Typical Manehattan-stallion vs. Heartland-mare. Nothing you could use." He thought for a moment. Then he anxciously looked around, to make sure nopony listened. "I could have something, but...well...I´m not sure, if its worth it..." He licked his lips. "Some motivation, perhaps...."

Zexis rolled his eyes. "If you want to get a decent fuck, just say it. We are not in some crime novel. I have an asset a disposal, that will satisfy your needs, without any questions. Just come over to the Flowershop tonight. Is that motivation enough?"

Bird Hoofs face lit up and his rubbed his hands together. "Thank you. You have no idea, how..."

"Get to the point. I still have other things to do.", interrupted Zexis.

The unicorn nodded and cleared his throat. "I heard through some channels, that it was Rainbow who made the first step. And that it was Thunderlane who didn´t cooperate. After that, things escalated." He took another sip from his tea. "Like I said, gossip."

Zexis pondered this. It certainly was curious. But then it posed the question, what Rainbow Dash could have asked for, that Thunderlane refused? Then another thought crept its way into Zexis head. "What kind of channels are we talking about here. Who told you that?"

Bird Hoof scratched his head. "Not personally, but this rumor goes all the way to Raritys Boutique. The lady loves gossip. Although, before I got wind of it, it already got through a few mouths, so the information is most likely not entirely accurate."

Zexis nodded and put that information away in his brain for later. Rarity was his connection to the Thunder-Dash problem. He needed to get her to talk, if he wanted to pursue this further.

He finished his coffee and stood up. "Thank you, Bird Hoof. I need to get going now."

The unicorn nodded. "A pleasure. See you tonight at the Flower Shop."

"And that concludes my lesson. Remember the three rules about alchemy: Security first. Research second. Results third." Zexis clapped his hands together, before the class of fillies and colts. "I hope you found it interesting and I will be glad to see you tomorrow. Have a nice day."

"Have a nice day, Mr. Chikelu!", said the entire class, before they all stormed out. Diamond Tiara was the first, in her expensive, frilly dress, followed by her friend Silver Spoon. The last one to leave were the colts, most of whom chatted with each other, seperated from the fillies. In particular Button Mash, Snip and Snails were isolated. They trotted slowly and without much enthusiasm out of the classroom.

Zexis took a deep breath and sank back into his seat. Teaching was tougher, than he had imagined. But also strangely satisfying. There were certainly a lot of interesting options to pursue here.

He looked up, as three figure walked up to him. "Greetings, girls. How did I do at my first day?"

The CMC grinned at him. "Not bad, I say. Not as good as Zecora, but no bad.", said Applebloom, who today wore her usual worktrousers.

"I think it was very interesting. And easy to understand. Alchemy is not my best field, so its good to have someone, who can give you the basics." Sweetie Belle was a gleaming flower once again, with her carefree smile and a light sundress that further accented her innocence and beauty.

"That he doesn´t rhyme helps with that.", said Scootaloo, in her t-shirt with rainbow colours and tight running leggings.

"Oh, come on. Zecora stopped with rhyming months ago!", protested Applebloom.

"But she still has this whole mystic mumbo jumbo, that she expects us to learn. Not all of us get private lessons, Applebloom. At least Zexis here talks to us like were actual students, not some apprentices."

"Mojo is real and not involving the spirits in the process can lead to..."

"Okay, okay, we get it! You are in love with her. Why don´t you marry the whole hut, while you´re at it." Scootaloo grinned, as Applebloom got beet-red. Then she hopped on her Scooter and made the beeline.

"Y-you....Scooots!", yelled the earth-filly and ran after her pranking friend. Sweetie Belle shook her head, threw a apologizing glance to Zexis and followed her.

Zexis laughed at this exchange. As exhilerating the conversion of Ponyville was, he couldn´t help but enjoy some carefree peace here and then. He imagined how even better this all would be, when those three fillies were at their knees, servicing him. Fantasies filled his head, with a naked Scootaloo in his lap, pierced and covered with demeaning and raunchy tattoos, while Sweetie Belle stripped on his table, whispering dirty words, and Applebloom in the corner, bound and gagged and beeging for release. He could feel his prick hardening again.

Before he could drift away in those dirty fantasies however, a voice pulled him out of it. "You are Mr. Chikelu?"

Zexis blinked a few times, before he looked up from his seat and saw a orange earth-mare standing before him. She wore a stetson on her head, wore dirty worktrousers and a checkered shirt, whose sleeves she had pulled up, revealing tight muscles. She was big, not as huge as Big Mac, but she had no problem looking Zexis in the eye, as he stood up. "Yes, thats my name. Although you can call me Zexis, Mrs...?"

"Call me Applejack." She shook his hand. A strong grip. "I just came by to see the new substitute teacher. Wanted to get a look on you." Her green eyes looked up and down, critically. "We don´t get too many zebras here, you know."

Zexis immediatly got his bearings at the sight of the Element of Honesty. He put his usual charming smile on his face. "I noticed. I just wanted to make a new start here in Ponyville and luckily Mrs. Cherilee offered me this job."

Applejack nodded, still looking mildly sceptical. "So I heard. Got a room by the Flowergirls, right?" Zexis nodded. "Just look on getting your own house in due time. There are folks, who don´t like seeing an unmarried guy in a house with some ladys."

Who, that was direct! Zexis didn´t doubt that Applejack counted herself to these "folks", which made this a clear warning. But he still kept up that smile. "I plan to do that, once I got enough money. I am aware of problems I cause those girls, and I surely don´t want to become a burden.", he said smooth. That he tipped his chin, as if he just had an idea. "That reminds me: I heard you are in need of some help on your farm. I would be willing aid you in my free time, if you want."

Contrary to what he expected Applejack didn´t rejoice. Instead her eyes narrowed and she raised an eyebrow. Zexis could now feel her mistrust. "I-I wouldn´t ask for much. Just a few bits, so that I can get on my own hooves sooner than later.", he tried to assure her.

The blonde mare now thrumed at the desk with her fingers. "Why do you care about the farm? You have just arrived.", she asked.

Zexis swallowed. This mare was certainly distrustful, quite the opposite of the rest of the town. "Well, Applebloom was great help the last few days and I got to know Big Mac yesterday. I figured..."

"You didn´t answer my question, Mr. Chikelu.", interrupted him Applejack, as she stepped further. He could smell a residue of sweat on her body, but he was more focused on her piercing green eyes, that seemed to drill into his head. "Why do you care?"

Zexis decided to foregoe his charm. He dropped his smile and looked her in the eyes. "Because I want to help..." Help you, learning your place!, but he left the last part unspoken.

For a while nopony said anything. A small drop of sweat fell down Zexis forehead, as Applejack mustered him. Then she shrugged and stepped back. "Fine. I take your offer.", she said and crossed her arms, "But only because Applebloom likes you and I trust her judgment. For the moment..."

Zexis took an internal sigh of relief and relaxed a bit. He hadn´t realised, he had been standing close to the wall. Applejack sure was intimidating! "Alright. When should I start?"

Applejack thought for a moment. "If you want, you can start tommorrow. Just come, if have time. We always have something light to do."

Zexis stumbled mentally for a second. "What do you mean light?"

"Well i am certainly not roping you in for the harvest. You are clearly not suited for that." Applejack looked meaningful at his torso and the clear lack of muscles. "But small fry makes dirt as well, so you can help. Just don´t expect a big pay." She chuckled and Zexis involuntarily felt his face heating up. This felt like first time, someone actually embarrased him!

Applejack now grinned lightly, before turning around. "See you tomorrow, Mr. Chikelu." With that, she strolled out of the classroom.

Zexis fumed. So caught up in the fact, that this mare had belittled him, was he, that he didn´t even wasted a thought over a fantasy. When he walked out of the building, he didn´t think about Applejacks perfect ass or his fuck-session with Lily and Bird Hoof tonight. He only thought about how could break that haughty bitch. And how easy she had seen through his lies....

Author's Note

Aaaand i´m baaaack.

Sorry for the long absence. Yes, I know I promised more content in November. I will get into more detail why this didn´t happen in my blog. Just know, I had my reasons. And they good reasons (I think). Although I really should have said somethind and not let you guys hanging. I´m sorry for that. :fluttercry:

Anyway, back to the chapter.
For those wondering, why the breaking of Roseluck. That is for the next interlude, which will come after the next update. It is basically to introduce you to a new mechanic. But Eros will explain that, when the time has come.

Also thumbs up for those who figured out, that Applejack couldnt be lied too. Good job. I also dropped a few hints, which traits will be needed by next level up, to work effectively on the farm.

Also, new events! Again you can only vote for one. The other two will still happen, Zexis will just not be able to influence their outcome. So, choose wisely.

Other than that, enjoy the chapter.

Cracking Scales

BZZZZZT.........Click!

Well it good to see that we have finished our work with the Flower Trio, but we need to be more careful that we do not break to many mares like we have down with Roseluck as now we have to make sure that she will not go and beg the next stallion she see to fuck her. Anyway on to the main events I believe we should go to the Castle of Friendship all though I want to corrupt Applejack I believe we need a bit more preparation before we can continue that route as our current puppet skills set are almost countered by the lie detection Applejack has.

As for the Everfree forest option it would be a complete gamble on what would happen there and I prefer to have some idea of what were getting into. Hopefully by going to the castle we can take advantage of whatever going to happen there and bring spike to our side.

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

Inside what looks like a therapist's office, there sat a slate-gray pony, wearing a white shirt and vest, and black slacks. He had a short white mane and was about middle-aged. He was filling out papers... when he takes notice of you.

"Ah... if it isn't the Corruptor?" The stallion smiled, "I heard lots about you and your little 'conquest'. You are probably wondering who I am. Well, I am what you would call a doctor... a doctor who has a thing for..." He glanced over at a photo that was on his desk, which was of a massive-breasted batmare, nude and gazing at the viewer alluringly, as he gives a wry grin, "...Mares' assets."

He then straighten up and gazed at you.

"I am Dr. Ebony. And I wish to aid you and your... 'god' in your quest to corrupt Equestria." Dr. Ebony smiled, "Do note that I am not entirely privy with what goes on in your world right now, but I would like to offer my two cents."

"To begin, Everfree Forest is in the middle of the road for me." Dr. Ebony explained, "On one hand, it would allow you to become more privy to what that sexy big-titted zebra-" He licked his lips, "-is up to, since your last encounter. But it seems she can sense something is off about you. Unless you can somehow mask your 'mojo' or 'juju' or whatever, you would be going in blind. And while I do appreciate nice juicy jugs... I rather you not gamble what could be a profitable future."

"And there's the Apple Farm. This venture could be as if not more risky than the first option. It's clear that Applejack does not see you in a good light. She sees you as scrawny and shady. The only reason you had success with her so far was your relationship to Applebloom, and even then, it's shaky at best. I suggest that if you are ever going to get any farther with her, you have to become more trustworthy... and has much as this may pain you, you might have to leave the Flower Trio's house. Other than that, take that one commentor's advice and hit the gym."

"Lastly, the Castle of Friendship. Thanks to your growing friendship with Spike, you might be able to do something here. Try to get more info on possibly the two of the three biggest threats to your mission. And hey, maybe you might be able to get lucky and snab yourself another book. Maybe a book on how to deal with the Spirit of Chaos. It's clear that Fluttershy, the biggest-bosomed of the Mane Six (unless this world varies from others) is neigh untouchable. I highly doubt that being nice and courteous will not fool Discord one bit. Out of all the options, this one stands to be the one with the most gains."

"But on other notes, I would suggest looking into those three boys. If there is anything I know about young boys, that if a sexy woman is involved, these three could easily be swayed over to your way of thinking. I do not know what they offer you, but more allies are always good." He then scowled, "As for Birdhoof, Dirthoof...whoever he is, I would suggest that you ditch her later on once he has served his purpose. Because honestly, a pedophile racist isn't someone to be walking free, even in this new world you are suggesting. There is corruption...and there are morally corrupt. And as for that suggestion about going after Mayor Mare... well, I feel that it would be too soon to go after such a high-profile target. She is only a step below Twilight, and if you are not capable of corrupting her quickly, you might had well written your death warrant."

"But that is just my opinion. All I can say is... if a big-breasted mare comes your way, and the opportunity appears..."

Dr. Ebony stares intently at you, "Do it. Do it for the love of Faust."

Zexis, Injustice wants to commend you for finally getting your herd-mares to hand their money over to you. That will help keep your operations running. Be advised though that spending too much too quickly may bring unwanted attention to yourself. Ponies may ask how a newcomer who doesn't even have his own house came into money so fast. You're smart enough to figure that, aren't you? Still, having an excuse handy might be a good idea. Just in case. Maybe say you were saving up throughout your travels.

In any case, this is a very fitting template for the future! You deserve this, Zexis. The three little sluts' things belong to you, the one who did them the favour of enslaving them body and mind. And, maybe, in time, even soul. There are rumours of powerful magic like that... but, that's for another time. You may enjoy the fantasy of shackling their souls to you for now. Baby steps.

Furthermore, Birdhoof proves he's a valuable asset, but he becomes a little demanding. I would suggest not getting rid of him, or at least not yet. Remember, you have only used mundane methods on him so far. When he's at the Flower sluts' home, where only your mindfucked slaves can see, you have a perfect opportunity to cement you control over Birdhoof. He's a loyal minion, but his loyalty could be shaky. With a little nudge, it will be much tighter. You shouldn't make him a slave. Think of him as a disciple, and part of his reformation.

If you do this, remember to ask him whether he made any preparations for you doing this to him. Birdhoof isn't terribly smart, and it would be suicidal for him to start asking for protection against mind-control out of the blue (because ponies would start asking why he wants that), but one never knows until one asks. Plus, it's a good idea to find out if there are easily-accessible protections against your mindfuckery anyhow.

Ebony Stallion

I agree with the good doctor. When three young stallions slouch, a sexy mare is at least likely involved. Maybe an older mare, maybe their classmates. Those upper class snobby bitches do have fine bodies on them, wouldn't you agree?

Too fine not to be conquered.

And even the ones more down-to-earth, like Dinky and Twist have their own charm. It would be a miracle indeed if the poor colts didn't develop some form of depression, what with this selection of delicious mares just out of reach because of Equestria's silly convention of thinking they should not be enslaved to the males!

Kids like them make for good spies. Adults hardly ever pay them real attention, especially three misfits like Snips, Snails, and Button, who many ponies think are losers and the town dunces. Trust me though, Zexis, they have a hidden talent for spywork! The two Unicorns will definitely make excellent minions. Do not ask why, it involves parallel dimensions and more headache than you need right now.

Hm, too bad my old experiments are lost behind that mirror... I would have loved to see you take those three on a leash and let them sing for you.

Knock! Knock!

Zexis got up from the dinner table and walked to the store door. It was already late evening and the sun was setting on the horizon. As he opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of Bird Hoof. The fat unicorn smiling in anticipation and nervously looking around. "Hello!", he greeted cheerfully. Then he looked expectantly at Zexis. "You´re gonna let me in?"

Zexis looked at him. No emotion ran over his face. Then he stepped aside, letting the stallion in. Bird Hoof grinned and stepped inside. The Zebra directed him into the living room, before closing the door and lowering the shutters on the windows. Then he joined him at the table.

Bird Hoof failed miserably at keeping a straight face. He was licking his dry lips and his hands were sweaty and trembled at the thought of what he was getting tonight. Zexis mustered him. He had cooled off since his encounter with Applejack this morning.

And he had time to think. Bird Hoof hadn´t giving him the support he wanted. The information he gave him wasn´t enough and in the last few days, he had costed him more in effort, then he got back. It was time to change that. He knocked loud on the table.

On this sign Daisy and Lily stepped into the room. At their sight Bird Hoofs eyes got wide and his mouth fell open. The mares were barely recognizable from their former appearance. Lily was wearing tight jeans, that she had cut incredibly short, so that they hugged her buttocks and the top buttons couldn´t be closed, almost revealing the tantalizing view on her privates. This was coupled with a shirt several sizes too small, that showed her bare stomach and strained over her chest. On the shirt was written "Slut" in big letters.

Daisy, on the other hand, wore on the first look a conservative skirt with a long shirt. Until one realized that that skirt had been shortened so much, that one was given a free look at her dripping, winking pussy and her long shirt was wet and clinging to her body, clearly outlining her breasts with her erect nipples.

Both mares were a far cry from their innocents selfes. Through Zexis influence they had been transformed into willing bimbos, who lived for their new master and anyone that would give them their beloved sex, which they now were addicted to.

As they walked towards the table, Zexis knocked once again and both of them stopped a few meters short from Bird Hoof. The unicorn was now openly showing his greed and was about to stand up, his hands extended in grabbing motion, but Zexis stopped him with a commanding: "Sit down!"

Bird Hoof froze in place and looked confused at Zexis´stony face. "Whats the matter? I thought, you told me to - "

"Shut up and sit down, Bird Hoof.", interrupted him the Zebra, staring at him coldly. The unicorn hesitated, looking once again at the obedient sluts, who hadn´t moved an inch and were staring at the ground. Then he sank down on his chair. He looked concerned.

"I cannot help, but have the feeling that our relationship has been beneficial in only one way.", said Zexis calm. He raised his hand and gestured towards the kettle at the other end of the room, that had been boiling for some time now. Lily reacted immediatly, took it and began to pour some tea. "Correct me, if i am wrong Bird Hoof, but you haven´t really been useful to me, have you not?"

"Well, I wouldnt say that. I gave you the information about Rainbow -"

"Something I could have obtained if I just asked those girls here." Zexis icy tone made Bird Hoof shut up immediately. "So you not only gave me easily obtainable information, but you also had the gall to demand payment for it." His voice grew more heated and angry. Bird Hoof was now not confused, but clearly afraid. His eyes darted to the door, only for panic to fill them, as Daisy stepped in front of it, blocking the way. "Tell me, why I shouldn´t reconsider our aggrement? Tell me, why I shouldn´t hand you over to the guards?" Zexis eyes now bore into the unicorns skull, every word of him filled with dominance.

Bird Hoof swallowed. "You can´t do that! I-I-I would tell them about you! About y-y-your plans! You can´t take that risk.", he stammered.

Zexis only raised his eyebrow. "And who would they believe? The town-creep or the guy with the backing of the inhabitants and a position at the school? Not to mention Scootaloo. How long do you think it will take me to convert her to my side, considering what I did with these cunts?" He nodded at Lily and Daisy, the former giving slight squeak at the insult, while a damp spot appeared between her legs. She got off on it.

Bird Hoof was now sweating openly and sinking into the chair, making his fat frame as small as possible. "I-I´m s-s-sorry.", he peeped, "P-please...I didn´t meant to....let me make it up...." He was shivering and nearly fell from his seat, when Lily put down the tea beside him.

Zexis looked at him, then gestured at the cup. "Drink. I need you coherent for this.", he commanded.

Again Bird Hoof hesitated, but relented quickly under Zexis gaze. He took the teacup and took a sip. Zexis nodded at this sight. "Coherent and amiable."

Bird Hoofs eyes got wide for a moment and then a familiar glazy look took over his face. Zexis stood up and stepped near to him, lowering his mouth to his ear. "We are going to change a few things about you. Not much, but some essentials. First, you´re going to be loyal to me. Not liking me or seeing me as an opportunity. No, I am your idol. The guy you aspire to be. In control, strong, dominant. As such you´re following my command and you´re going to give your best, understood?"

The unicorn nodded slowly. His will was so weak and he was so intimidated, that not much force was needed to bend his mind with drugs. Zexis repeated the command until he was satisfied and thenn continued: "You´re going to remain the despicable pervert that you are, but you going to finally be more subtle about. From outside it will look like you finally turned your life around. You´re going to put more effort into the Orphanage and be nicee to the fillys there. In secret you will stay the same, but you will keep your libido under control. If somepony asks you, what caused you to change your ways, you´re going to refer to me and tell them that I made you see the errors of your ways."

Again Bird Hoof nodded. Again Zexis imprinted that suggestion into his mind. Then, after half an hour, the effect of the drug wore off and Zexis returned to his chair. Bird Hoof blinked, as if had just woken up from a dream and looked around. "What the...did I...miss something?"

"Probably a little shock from our little beauties here.", lied Zexis smoothly and Daisy giggled as her grabbed her ass. "We had just talked about our new plans with the Orphanage. That you were going to work on your image." Bird Hoof blinked again at that. Then he nodded.

"Yes, of course. Couldn´t hurt making a better impression. We don´t need any suspicion.", he said. In comparison to before, he was a lot calmer. He also payed more attention to Zexis, although he still stole some glances to Lily.

"I would like you to work on a way to get close to Rainbow Dash. Not just rumors, but a connection. Somepony we could influence, that could get us to her.", said Zexis.

Bird Hoof nodded in acknowledgement. "Of course. I will get right on that." he said and stood up. He was stopped by Zexis, who laid a hand on his shoulder.

"No, not yet, my friend. First we indulge a little bit. See it as...motivation." Zexis grinned and then nodded to Lily. The mare turned around and grabbed a leash from the corridor. Then she led Roseluck into the room.

If Daisys and Lilys corruption was severe, the Roseluck transformation was beyond words. Zexis had worked a few hours on restoring the mares mind to certain degree, but she was still more or less broken. As Lily let her in on a leash like an animal, she was dripping her pussyjuice all over the floor. Her eyes were wide and a grin was on her face, her tongue out like a dog. Somepony had written with a marker on her buttcheeks "Whore" over cutiemarks and just over her pussy stood "Free for all".

Zexis grinned at that sight and the look on Bird Hoofs face. "Go ahead. You can use her tonight all you want. Fucking is all she good for now, anyway." With these words he pulled Daisy on the table and plunged his fingers into her needy slippery cunt. "Tonight we both going to have fun."

Bird Hoof looked at Roseluck. Then his trousers dropped and he lunged at her.

Night, Friendship Castle

Zexis breathed in deep the midnights air. He was out for stroll to regain his energy after a lengthy fuck-session at the Flower-Shop. When he had left, Daisy had been lying comatose from the pleasure in the corner, her tongue lolling, while Roseluck had licked away at her spunk-filled pussy and Bird Hoof had been fucking Lily on the table. He had a knack for dirty talk and some of the words he used during their activities had even made Zexis blush.

He had left them, knowing that every possiblity of Bird Hoof being illoyal had been eliminated. With the alterations to his mind, Zexis didn´t need to be worried of the unicorns slipping up. Even better, his prestige in Ponyville would rise, once the ponies saw the creep getting nicer. He was pretty sure, that this would get him into good graces with the townsfolk.

While he was thinking about his next steps, Zexis stopped. His walk had brought him to Princess Twilight Sparkles Castle. He could see, that there was still light on in the crystalline building. And as he stepped closer, he could hear voices. Loud and agitated. Moments later, the doors swung open and a small dragon stomped out into the open, small smokeclouds rising from his nostrils.

"Good evening, Spike.", greeted Zexis. "Is everything okay?" The dragon ignored him and stomped off.

"Spike! Come back! I didn´t mean it that way!" Twilight Sparkle stood in the doorframe. Her face was a look of distraught and guilt. Unlike their first meeting, this time she wore actual clothes, although in dark of night not much was identifiable.

Zexis walked up to her and looked concerned. "Is everything okay? Did you fight?", he said worried.

The alicorn looked down at him from the stairs. "What? Who are you?"

"Zexis Chikelu. I arrived here in Ponyville a week ago. Spike helped me out a lot." Zexis reached out with his hand. "So again: Is everything okay? He seemed angry."

Princess Twilight looked at him suspiciously, but then she seemed to remember something and shook his hand. "Of course, he talked about you. I´m sorry, there so much going on right now." She looked between him and the direction her assistant run off to. "I´m sorry, but I really don´t have the time right now. I need to talk to him. Apologize. Oh, this all so stupid!" She was very distraught and began to descent the stairs to run after Spike.

Zexis saw an opportunity and decided to take it. He stepped at her side. "What was the issue? Maybe I can help?"

"I don´t think you can help much in this matter, Mr.Chikelu. It´s complicated at best and Spike is in a difficult phase right now and - "

"Is it about Dragon Puberty?" Zexis made a wild guess.

And landed right on point as Twilight Sparkle stopped dead in her tracks and turned around. She looked at him, like she was just now seeing him. "How do you know about that?", she asked.

Zexis shrugged. "He told me about it. Said it was big problem and that he had to suppress it."

Twlight blinked. "He told you about it? But thats-.....he tells almost no one about this...." Suspicion could now be heard clearly from her voice.

Zexis smiled in response and put an as honest look as possible on his face. "People tend to trust me. And I imagine being a guy helped. It is not something he could discuss with girls, right?"

Skill advanced: Silver Tongue -> Smooth Talker!

The purple alicorn thought for a moment and then her shoulders sacked. "I...guess you´re right. I´m sorry, you shouldn´t be dragged into this mess. It´s just...." She stopped and shook her head in despair.

"Hey, hey!" Zexis stepped closer. He could get a whiff of lavender from her and see some tears in the corner of her left eye. "I know, I´m new here in town. But I consider Spike my friend. Tell me what the issue is and will help as much as I can."

Twilight looked at him through her bangs and hesitated. Zexis kept his worried and honest look. A small eternity passed, then she answered: "Spike has been feeling....left out. For some time now. I´ve been preoccupied with my duties and then there was this surge near Tartarus....well, to put it simple: I have been neglecting him. His rivalry to Starlight - thats my student - hasn´t helped in that matter." She looked sadly into the dark alley the dragon has vanished into. "Tonight he had brought that up. Wanted to talk it out. I...didn´t listen to him. Was more concerned with the experiment. Words flew, he got angry, I dismmissed him and...well, you have seen the outcome." She looked at him sad. "I need to fix this."

Zexis shook his head. "I think you did enough for today. Let me talk to him. I will calm him down, and get him to come back. You just stay here.", he said.

Twilight shook her head. "No, thats my fault. I can´t pull you into this! I messed up. I will fix it again."

But Zexis remained steadfast. "Honestly, the way he is right now, he will not listen to you anyway. The only thing you will achieve is enraging him further. Believe me, I know what I am talking about. I had the same problem with my family."

"I don´t think that is a good comparison to - ", began Twilight.

"I think it is.", interrupted Zexis, sensing a weakness in her arguments. "You are like family to each other, right? Sometimes guys like Spike need a little space. An outsider, who is not immediately involved. Neutral. Somepony he can vent to. He will not do that with you. There is a lot of frustration currently within him and trying to fix that now, will only bottle it up."

He stepped in front of the Princess and looked her deep into her purple eyes. "Let me help. I think I am currently the only one, he will talk to." He laced his word with a little bit of dominance, to give extra weight.

Twilight looked back - gosh, she was beautiful - and thought deeply. Then she sighed in defeat. "Alright, you win.", she said. "I will wait for him. Just...tell him I´m sorry. I didn´t mean to hurt him."

Zexis smiled a little bit and nodded in affirmation. As he turned around and followed Spike he could Twilight say behind him: "Great princess of friendship am I...."

Somewhere on the Outskirts of Ponyville

Zexis found Spike siiting on a tree stump outside the boundaries of the town. The little dragon still puffed in anger and stared into the darkness. As he heard Zexis approaching, he turned around. "Ah, its you. Sorry, if I was rude. Just....I´m a little bit pissed off right now.", he said, as he recognised the zebra. "What do you want?"

Zexis didn´t answer at first. Instead he layed his words carefully. He had a plan in mind and it was not mending the rift between Princess Twilight Sparkle and the Dragon. So he pulled out a bottle of cider and gave it to Spike. "Just saw you and thought you could need a drink.", he said innocently.

Spike mustered him, then shrugged his shoulders, took the bottle and took a deep chug from it. Zexis smiled, as he saw Spike swallow two Honesty Pills and a dosis of Suggestion Powder. The little dragon finished his drink and smacked his lips satisfied. "Damn, I needed that. Stupid Twilight! Always ignoring me!", he grumbled.

Zexis sat down next to him. "I could see that. She looked pretty angry. Said that you wouldn´t understand.", he lied.

His words were like oil the flame, as Spike flared up in anger. "Wouldn´t understand!? What? Her fucking experiment? Her duties? Who does she thinks cleans up the mess she makes!? Who organizes the library!? Who-"

Zexis put his hands in defense. "Hey, you don´t need to tell me. Its clear that you have a problem." He waited until Spike calmed down and sat down again, simmering. "Mind telling what it is?"

Spike took another sip from the drugged cider and his eyes narrowed in anger. "She is just ignorant of my problems! I don´t mind being the clean-up maid. Thats what I did for her my entire fucking life, so why change it? No, what the real problem is, is that I don´t fucking grow up!" He looked at Zexis and gestured down to his small body. "Would you believe I haven´t grown two inches in three years? I would, if I was allowed, but nooooooo...we have to be careful. Dragon adolesence is dangerous, if not controlled. Bla bla bla!"

He snorted angrily. "As if I didn´t knew that. And I know how to control myself! I control myself around her every freaking day! That fucking...." He stopped short.

Zexis leaned in closer. "Hey, get it out. Nopony is gonna hear but me. No mare to judge you.", he whispered.

Spike didn´t look at him. But he drank more from the cider and then shivered. His body grew bigger a little bit, but he didnt notice. "I-I....Celestia damn it, I am a fucking guy, okay? I have urges! And I am hanging around two of the most sexy mares in Ponyville. Rarity ingores me and Twilight sees me as a brother. I am practically in a blind spot. And they treat me like that, too. Like I´m..I´m..."

"They don´t treat you with respect, right?", Zexis helped.

Spike nodded and his speech grew more heated. "Nothing at all! I saved the Crystal Empire, for fucks sake! Twice! I followed Twilight into the mirror! I stood to her, when nopony else would! I did it! I! And don´t get anything for it. Just a cold shoulder from a fucking b-...."

"Bitch.", finished Zexis. Spike shuddered at the word and looked at him the first time. Zexis just looked understandingly. "Say the things by their names. Twilight behaves like a bitch to you. She sees you not as a brother, but as a servant. All her friends do."

Spike looked angry, but uncertain. "I-I...am....but...geez, they are my friends...", he murmured. The bottle was nearly forgotten, between his claws.

"And do they treat you like a friend?", asked Zexis, giving the bottel a little nodge. "Do they take you with them, when they are leaving for some adventure? Or discussing their plans? Lets be honest, they don´t. They are content to leave you here, like a broken toy. Like a pet." He could see his words having an impact at the dragon. He added: "The only ones, who understand you, are we guys. We know how it is. What pain you go through."

Spikes face grew darker and he emptied the bottle. Now, rage was clear to see on his scaly face. "She is just such a fucking bitch! Always ignoring me! All of them! I-I-I....haaaate them..." The last words he whispered, and as soon as they were out he grew another few inches. The Spikes on his back now standing up straight. His eyes got a cruel streek.

Zexis smiled triumphantly at the transformation. His gamble on the emotional growth of dragons had payed off! Without his inhibition holding him back and his amplified frustration, Spike was easily manipulated into a darker mindset. Now, he had to establish control. "You do. And I think we both know, what you deserve." Spike looked at him. "You deserve respect. And they should feel how it is, to be in your place."

Spike grinned, but then he shook his head. "Sounds awesome, but...no." Zexis blinked in confusion.

Spike continued: "I mean, don´t get me wrong Zexis. What you say sounds great, but not right now. I want to give Twilight a chance to apologize. She is a ignorant cunt sometimes, but she means well. I am just pissed right now, thats all." Spike shrank before his eyes again, his backscales laying down again. He didn´t go back to his former size, remaining a little bit bigger and his scales a tick sharper. But he was nowhere near his previous form.

Zexis was stunned. He hadn´t considered, that Spikes dragon metabolism would work through the drugs faster than expected. Now the little dragon was back to his senses. Still angry, but no longer easily influenced. The zebra grit his teeth in frustration and took a deep breath. It was not without success! He just needed to confirm how much he changed of Spikes outlook. "I am just here for you, thats all.", he lied smoothly, not letting his anger be seen.

Spike nodded and smiled a little bit, now having calmed down completely. "And don´t think I don´t appreciate that. Unlike Twilight I am able to recognize the effort being made for me.", he said, raising the bottle. "Helped a lot, thanks."

Zexis nodded and waved, as if that was nothing. Then he sighed. "So, where do we remain? Do you go back?"

Spike looked into the night sky and the moon, standing full above them. "...yeah, probably. She is helpless without me, that stupid princess. And I´m tired and in the castle is my bed, so there is that."

Again Zexis nodded. Then he though on trying something out and he smiled wickedly. "Hey, if you´re lucky, you catch her while she is changing. Have something for tonights dreams."

Spike punched him in the arm, but a moment later he laughed. "Fuck, don´t say that. She basically like family!", he said playfully exasperated. Then he grinned lecherously too. "But just basically. Nice ass, she has. That and her tits." He chuckled, making a fondling motion with his claws. "Not as great as Rarity, though. That one is bombshell! Small wonder her tits fit into her clothes sometimes."

Zexis grinned. It seemed like at least his inhibition were lowered a bit. He had hoped to use his anger, but apparently Spike was a little bit too disciplined for that. For now at least.

He decided to call it a day and stood up. "Just make it home safely. Oh, and don´t tell Twilight about this.", he said.

Spike shook his head. "Do you think I´m stupid? That bitch won´t hear a thing from me. I just tell her you helped me calm down and thats it. She can kiss my scaly ass, for all I care right now. Maybe I´m in a better mood tomorrow."

Zexis sighed inside in relief and nodded. He waved goodbye. "Bet you wish that she would kiss you. Goodnight!"

Before he was out of earshot he heard Spike saying: "Not on the mouth, that is..."

Author's Note

Thats it for the event. Hope you liked the scenes.

Bird Hoofs "Behaviour Correction" was a general consensus in most of the comments, so I decided to include that here. That meant the chapter too a bit longer than expected, but I believe it was worth it.

Other than that, maybe a little information: Events that are not picked by the community are still going to play out. As a general rule, without Zexis interfering they will play out in favor of the involved participants and against Zexis. For example: If Zexis hadn´t interfered, Twilight would have run after Spike and they would have talked things out. The next day Zexis would have met Spike and found out, that Spike frustration, one of the opportunities to corrupt him, has vanished. Or at least severely diminished. So always think about which events Zexis needs to tackle, because if he chooses poorly a lot of options are going to disappear.

(Just, so you don´t worry: This current decision was a good one. Although, not the best. :pinkiehappy: )

Anyway, the nect chapter is going to be an Interlude, so post your questions to Eros. There will also be another gameplay-reveal and some new traits. Hope you like it.

PS: And yes, Zexis just got better at lying.

Second Interlude

Tartarus, Eros Sanctuary

Once again Eros sat on his Throne of Perversion, leisurely reading a small magazine. On the front was skimpily clad Roseluck running her tongue down the shaft of a fat stallion, with a fat dildo up her ass. Over the picture stood bright red lettes First Steps in Ponyville Corruption! Blowjobs in Flower Shops!
Eros smiled faintly and his cock stood rect and high as he read about the progress his avatar had made. If one would look a little bit closer, one would see how his pecks had grown ever so slightly and his horn gained a little bit of length. His Sanctuary had changed as well, though that was probably due to him actually getting rid of the mess Cerberus had made. A lot of broken furniture had been put back together and the ones who couldn´t be repaired had been repurposed as a pile of wood, that had distinct look of an ongoing art-project. Although it was still too early to tell what it was.

Connection established!

The sound of the Corruptor pulled Eros attention away from the paper and towards the device. His smile broadened as he saw the activity on the screen. He layed the magazine down and grabbed the Corruptor, while grabbing his dick with another hand and slowly wanking off. "Good to see you back. I´ve finally gotten back enough power to keep tabs on our little project.", he said, pointing towards the lewd magazine, "Albeit in an unconventional way."
He chuckled to himself, before looking down on the screen again, his eyes simmering with pride and lust. "I must say, I am astonished at the progress. This is turning out better than expected. I can practically feel it." He gestured towards his horn. "My Connection to depravity in Equestria still stands, although it had layed dormant for many centuries. It feels strange finally getting some energy from that place. Like...a muscle you haven´t moved for eternity."

He closed his eyes thoughtful for second. His horn sparked to life and red astral energy filled the room, before concentrating on a point and puffing up in a cloud of smoke. When it dissipated, it revealed an onahole, fleshy with a sun-mark on the side. Eros grunted, grabbed it and let it join his masturbation session.
"This is the most I can currently do, without arising suspicion. Won´t get me off in the slightest, but it´s a start. Anyway, before I continue: Do you have any questions?"

Eros, if I may be so bold, are there any taboo's that even you would rather be upheld, or (extreme or otherwise) fetishes kept out. Also are there females as much as males that you'd hold up as Equals (as long as their morality was in the same circles I'd imagine). Knowing the player is the best start to knowing the grand game. :pinkiecrazy:

May the flames of your passions never snuffed away. :coolphoto: (trying a different ... poem (?) for you see how it goes.)

Eros pondered this question for moment, before he answered: "Well I am the God of Depravity and Corruption. As long as there is something to corrupt and defile I don´t really have limits. Although there are some taboos I don´t break, believe it or not: Torture for the sake of torture, for example. I´m not against using pain in sexual context, heck there enough that get off on that. What I dislike however are the ones, who hurt other people just for the sake of misery. No gain, no pleasure. Just pain. That´s devoid of any lust and quite honestly even for me too icky. The same goes for necrophilia or, as the neighponese call it, Guro. That is just....no...not really what I am looking for."

He took up the magazine, turned some pages, until he reached an article that read: "FoE! Alternate Universe sparks controversy! Effective or moronic?" Eros face showed some mild disdain. "This is another thing, I stumbled upon recently. For all intents and purposes I should applaud the Caribous for their efforts in breaking Equestria, but...I don´t. It´s a good example of my first point, but also because they are just idiots, in how they handle their conquest. I don´t want to get into detail, but seriously? The way the rules of their universe bend themselves backwards just to grant them their victory is utterly displeasing. There is no challenge! No trial! They popped up on the scene and won, just like that. And if somepony challenges them....they win again! No explanation, no real effort, nothing!"
He led the magazine drop and sighed. "In the end it feels hollow. No elation or tension or release. Just a halfbaked fantasy, that has a good premise but fails at the excecution."

"To your second question: I had just as much succubi in my army as incubi, if that gives a picture about my standing on gender. Actually, scratch that. I had more succubi than incubi in my army, now that I think about it. But my point still stands. I don´t believe in Equality so much, as I believe in Opportunity. Wether you have a cock or a cunt doesn´t matter to me, as long as you are willing to fuck and corrupt. It just so happens, that males are usually more receptive to it than females. But if a mare wants to get in on the action herself, I will not deny her that. Some of my greatest generals were corrupted mares. Commander Hurricane to give a good example. And Lilith, my favorite Succubus managed to make a break along with some of her followers from Tartarus a few years ago, when Cerberus left his post for some days. Sure Celestia brought her back, but I wouldn´t be suprised, if she left something on the surface behind."

Eros stroked his chin at that thought. Maybe he should try and talk with Lilith on the next opportunity. Sure, they weren´t on good terms anymore, but surely she would be interested in his scheme. Maybe she would even agree to be his vassal again. It would most certainly help with his boredom.
The Alicorn shook his head. He would put that idea on the shelf for later. He had other things to worry about now, as the Corruptor blinked again with a new message.

Two lights come on, an orange light and a blue light. They highlight a figure, but keep him shrouded in darkness.

"Greetings, Eros. It is a pleasure to speak to you... directly. I am a Spokesman of a council of... shadow leaders, shall we say, curious about your methods and their applications. I will waste as little time as possible and get to what questions I have. First of all; do you have an idea of the powers and capabilities of Zecora? And can you recommend a good way of dealing with her? I imagine it is only a matter of time before she attempts to remove or expose Zexis. Preparing him must become a priority as we do not know when she will make her move.

"Likewise with Discord. I can only imagine he will be more of a monkey wrench with how... random he is. We must find a good way to neutralize him.

"Finally, do you have any knowledge of the purity laws Celestia enacted? I would imagine your... imprisonment has kept you out of touch, but any knowledge could be useful, if applied correctly. If nothing else, it will help us establish how far Zexis can push things publicly.

"Thank you for your time. The results of your... experiment should prove to be enlightening.

"We,,, will be watching."

The lights shut off.

Eros puffed his cheeks and sighed. "Well, Zecora is a zebra shaman. That means she doesn´t use conventional magic but enchantments, potions and talismans. Other than a unicorn who discharges spells and incantations, shamans store magical energy through rituals in proxies. Like a sword or a staff. This takes time and effort, but it means they can use the stored magic for longer and makes them flexible. A good shaman can, with enough time, assemble so many artifacts, that they become a walking magical juggernaut, with items for any conceivable situation. Sure, a unicorn is faster and potientally more powerful, but a zebra shaman is versatile and can, with enough preparation, take on enemies that are way stronger than him. So the best way of dealing with them is taking them out before they can entrench themselves and prepare. If thats not possible, than the only other option is finding a way to defeat them, they haven´t prepared for. Suprise attacks and unconventional tactic, and the like."

"Discord is a wild card, fittingly for the god of chaos. But if Celestia allowed him to be free, then there must be something to keep him grounded. A chain, metaphorically speaking. Someone who has him under control, who he cares more about, than his own fun. If we are to take him on, it´s either overpowering him with pure might, like Tirek did, or by attacking his chain, and gain control over him that way."

By the mentioning of purity laws, Eros face darkened and his eyes turned from fiery red to a bloody purpur. He grinded his teeth. "I am aware of the Purity Laws. A perversion of order! Tyranny at its best. Brainwashing and social engineering an entire culture to Chastisity over one thousand years. Fucking bitch!"
He slammed his fist on the throne, his pupils turning to slits. His teeths changed, rearranging themselves the razorsharp fangs and the air around him began to heat up. Runes on the walls begand to glow, sparks cracked between them.

Then, as sudden as it had come, the anger vanished from Eros´face. His body turned back to normal, the runes dissapeared and his face slackened with exhaustion and resignation. "I honestly can´t help with that. I would, believe me, but I don´t know more about the Laws than the Avatar does. They are probably one of our biggest obstacle in this endeavour, as they are an integral part of equestrian culture now. I would advise learning more about them, if we want to succed."

Dr. Ebony was in his office, taking note of the ominous window into Tartarus that just materialized in his office. In this window was a silhouette of a big hulking figure that could only be the Corruptor.

"Okay... that isn't something you see everyday." Dr. Ebony frowned, "I can only assume I had caught the attention of Eros..." He gazed at the window with uncertainty, "...Right?"

The figure stared at the stallion, not saying anything.

"...Right, I guess I could get straight to the point." Dr. Ebony cleared his throat, "So... it is a relief that things went as well as they did with Spike. I am a little bummed that Bird Hoof is going to be sticking around for a while... but as long as Bird Hoof actually follows through with these changes, I guess it can work... but I do have a few questions."

He leaned against his desk.

"So... is it actually possible for this whole operation to tank over? Can there be a 'game over'? Because I do recall there was a story where the writer actually wrote a game over to his story, I just hope that I am not wasting my time with this endeavor."

The figure glared at him.

"I mean no disrespect. I really want to see things done right, but I am that kind of guy who likes to look ahead in those Choose Your Adventure books to see which path would get them a good ending."

He cleared his throat.

"Anywho, for my second quesiton... might be possible to use this 'corruption' power to enhance certain body parts? Like I dunno..." He gives a wry grin, "Tits? I dunno, I'm just throwing it out there. I know there would have be a way to do so without drawing attention from the non-corrupted, but hey, we could use more big-titted mares in the world. I'm sure you and the Chosen One can make it work."

"Also... and this is just an general question... but when do you suppose we will be getting down to the paizuris? I am a particularly huge fan of it and I would love to see Zex take part in one of greatest joys when it comes to sex."

"...And that's about it. I don't really have much to go on. But I hope I did not offend you or..." He gazed at the viewer, "The writer..."

Eros scratched his head. "You have weird way of asking, Dr.Ebony. But if you want to treat this like a game, sure. However this Game Over you´re talking about can happen. If you fuck up and our plan is discovered or Zexis dies, then we lose. I will not have enough energy to attempt the same trick twice. This is a one-time shot at victory, and if it misses, I will have to sit here until the universe turn to mush. So, no pressure..."

"Also, who is this writer you are talking about....?"

The Corrupter reappears in the black marble throne room, large windows looking out upon the same strange autumn sky with trees of fire and gold. In front the Corrupter stands a large gold table, on which appears to rest a map of an entire galaxy. Stardancer stares at it intensely for a few moments before muttering, "Yes... deploy a Kor'Tul squadron here and the planet should be vaporized before daybreak, Dawn's Light will rue the day he insulted me." Outside the window ten gleaming spacecraft, each as large as a mountain, roar away into the sky. Stardancer turns and grins, at them before noticing the Corrupter floating silently at the end of the table. "Ah, you're back. Good. While you were gone I had to wage war to keep myself entertained." He sighs as he walks around the table to the Corrupter, "It's not like it used to be when I was young, fighting for vengeance with hate in my heart and death in my bones." Stardancer regards the Corrupter for a while before nodding to himself, "Yes, Spike is quite the whipped dog, who could expect anything else after a life of servitude? And Twilight! I never knew she was so strong willed! Always was gullible though, too distracted by her research in my opinion, too much theory not enough application." He turns back to the table and yells, "And make sure one arrives ahead of the others, I want him to have hope before I slaughter his people to fuel my ships!" He turns back to the Corrupter, reading more, "An audience with Eros himself? Well I suppose that you're reading this now then." He stands a little straighter and gives a lordly bow, befor returning his attention back to the Corrupter, "Now then, Twilight said something interesting and worrisome. She said that there had been a surge of energy in Tartarus, no doubt our wonderful puppet Zexis's creation and teleportation. So here is a question, could the element of magic be able to trace that disturbance back to its cause, for example Zexis? If so, that would by incredibly bad for his teaching career." Outside a large black cloud clashes with another, sending torrents of rain and lightning down upon the windows, "Curse those air-brained idiots! Why I created them to be so quarrelsome I'll never know! Anyway, second question: If Zexis were to come to an unfortunate end, whether by magic or dehydration from all the orgasms he's having, would you be able to conjure enough energy for a new avatar? Would it even be possible to attempt the same trick twice? I thank you for your time, as I'm sure you're a busy man. I'll let you know how the decimation of one of my oldest friends goes. Ta!" And with that, Stardancer summons two large maces, and vanishes from sight into a portal in front of the Corrupter. Which now has a lovely view of an alien planet being slowly consumed by darkness as large flashes of different colored energy fly back and forth across space. It would appear that Stardancer has left Eros some entertainment.

Eros face lit up, as he watched the battle unfold. At one point he had summoned a bag of popcorn and was openly cheering, as one would a tense hoofball game. "To the left! Left, you Idiot! He has you on his sensors...Ooooooohh, thats another one down!"

Finally, after two hours, the planet lies completely darkened. Occasionaly one could see some orange lights, as the inferno on the ground destroyed the last remnants of civilization there, but overall the battle was over. Long lines of slaves could be seen dragging there feet to the transport to be shipped off and the leader of the resistance was summarly executed by the winner, before the screen went dark.

Eros ate the last scraps of popcorn, before righting himself on his seat and coming back to the questions. "I assume the Princess of Magic is talking about the Energy Surge during the Avatars creation. This sadly was unavoidable, although it will take her considerable time, to figure out it came from me. The spellmatrix I used is humonguoesly complex and I made sure to cover my tracks. Magical surges from Tartarus are nothing out of ordinary either. If you keep the worlds worst beings in one place, they are bound to headbutt now and then. The lesser ones, that is. High Lords and former Gods, like Tirek and me are usually kept in isolation if we do not behave ourself. So I wouldn´t be to worried."

He thought for a moment. "If you really don´t want to take any risk, you should try to mess with her experiments, to set her back. Although that is risky in its own right, so be careful."

The mist rolls back revealing a large blue dragon, with a silvery white chest and ab scales kneeing muttering.

“Eros, God of Corruption and Lust, bless my kingdom that it may grow in prosperity. Help me guide dragons towards our true natures, allow me to maintain favor of the other gods so They do no hinder the work I do. If be pleasing to you, please grant me an audience with thee.”

As the dragon opens his blue eyes he exclaims, “It worked! Fluorspar was right about this being the time that mortals could view into the depths of Tartarus.”

“My High Lord Eros, it is pleasing to speak with you in person. I was not able to communicate with you during your last meeting of viewers and and very please to participate now.”

“Eros there are troubles brewing in my kingdom. As you can tell from my comments, I am the new Ice Dragon Lord and am working constantly to convert the dragon's back into the ways of Eros. During this time in history dragon’s kingdom’s grew and hatchings were plentiful. Then came the age of Celestia and Luna, and many dragons have opted to forgo the ancient ways.”

“One of my key problems is”

“Let me go!!” a dragoness’s voice echoes from a hallway.

“What’s going on?” The blue dragon sighs.

“I’m conversing with Eros.”

A black guard dragon with a grey chest walks in with a orange dragoness bound in chains.

“My Lord Fimbulwinter,” the black dragon replies with a bow, “I’m sorry for the interruption, but I wouldn’t have done so if it wasn’t for an emergency. Your harem found a spy, they wanted me to bring her to you.”

The blue dragon’s eyes widen at the sound of the word spy.

“Excuse me for a minute Eros, this situation needs my immediate attention.”

Finbulwinter looks at the dragon guard, both sets of eyes going white. The ice dragon king grabs the dragonesses head, and her eyes glow white as well. Soon all three sets of eyes fade, a smirk appears on Fimbulwinter’s face.

“I knew the Lesser Lord of Spire’s Cove, was against me assuming the throne of being the Ice Dragon Lord, but to actually send a spy. I’m surprised.”

Gazing down at the struggling dragoness, Fimbulwinter taunts, “So spy, did you learn what your ruler wanted you to learn?”

“Go fuck yourself, imitator.” The dragoness spats at Fimbulwinter’s feet.

“I’m sure you're going to be wanting me to fuck you in a moment.” Fimbulwinter smirks, as he holds up a red and violet crystal from his chest. The dragoness shivers as a glow from the crystal washes over her.

“So spy, is there something you want me to do?” The blue dragon speaks, as his cock starts to become hard. The glow stops, and the dragoness replies haughty, “Go fuck yourself!”

“What!!!?!?!?!” Fimbulwinter replies, as the guards in the chamber glance about in confusion.

“How did you resist the Tarmakin’s crystal?”

“Wouldn’t you want to know, asshole. You are nothing compared to a real dragon lord, as Lord Glacier was, or his son Lord Permaforst.” The dragoness shouts.

“Oh really, then why am I the one with the Ice Heart Bow?” Fimibulwinter smirks

“You cheated at the tournament, it is the only way you could have beaten all the other dragons. You have ruined the name of dragons across this country. The lesser lords are preparing a rebellion. We are going to find ways to avoid your manipulation! We will attack and free Prince Permafrost and put him back on his father’s throne!” The dragon shouts in self righteous fury

Grabbing her roughly, Wimbulwinter locks eyes with the dragoness. Both eyes growing white.

As both eyes dim a laugh echoes across the room.

“HA HA HA HA! Former Prince Permafrost was smart, to insist that you be used as a spy before he was imprisoned. You prefer the other side of the nest. That is why you didn’t ask for my cock, but if I had any member of my harem in here you would have begged to fuck with her. Smart. Just think about the dragonesses in my harem. There plumb tits, those wonderful lips.”

The dragoness starts to tremble as the dragon lord lets go of her. Many of the guards nostrils flare at the scent of arousal. from the dragoness.

“Now the question remains, of what to do with you? I could try to make you into a male. My flesh craft abilities haven’t been successful with changing genders yet, but I could always try a few new variations, I have been working on.”

“I could just use my Shazamer’s Prism to enter your mind and make you crave males. I haven’t ever done that before, I’m interested in seeing if is strong enough to do that. To overwrite your sexual desire for females.”

‘Or I could turn you into my first double slut. A slut who’s need to fuck by other females. You would shamelessly have sex with any female, no matter who was present. I may add a preference for you to fuck or be fuck by females whenever a male is present. That would be hot for me or my guards to watch.”

“The final option would be to kill you and send your head back to your lord, while keeping your decaying body next to Permafrost, as a reminder of those who stand against me!”

The dragon lord looks at the dragoness, her eyes full of fear.

“You know, this gives me an idea. Eros, this here is an example of the problems I am facing bring dragons back into the hoard of Eros. I need to do something about this spy, and maybe even Permafrost. So what do you think I should do with the two of them?”

The mist closes up, as the dragoness is dragged out of the throne room

The God of Lust raised his hands towards the screen. His stance took on a regal appearance an his eyes glowed in majestic fire. "If I weren´t confined in this prison and in this state, I would personally reward you for your ongoing loyalty, King Fimbulwinter. As it is, I can only give you my blessing for your endeavour and that you may succed in leading the Ice dragons back on their true path."

Then his eyes fell on the dragoness and a lecherous grin parted his lips. "I would suggest a more interesting fate. Send her back to Permafrost, but with a few...changes. If she so desires her female compatriots, let her have them. In way only a male can. Let her feel the elation of a cock being buried into a dripping snatch, the power that comes with this dominance and let her drown in it. And then, when she sees the truth of you rule, let her return to the rebel-prince and let her destroy his resistance from the inside. The best victory is one served with poetic irony."

BZZZZZT.........Click!

Excellent work with both Spike and Bird Hoof hopefully with your suggestions will lead both of them onto more fruitful paths.

Now it looks like we have some more time with Eros and I was wonder how you know when these "events" are about to take place is it some sort of precognition or do you just get a vague sensation that something about to happen and will this ability get stronger as you do.I ask cause as useful as these notification are if we have some more information about what each event might be or who is involved we might be able to make more informed decisions.

Anyway I got to get back to work my superiors want me to write a report on the progress of this game of yours as well as prepare and present a plan on how to proceed both for them and our fellow comrades participating in this game.

until next time

From the Archives of Enlightenment, Forbidden Division

"Honestly it is the Corruptor that oversees these events. I don´t want to bore you with details: Just know that it involves a lot of messing with the Laws of Probability and Space-Time Relativity. Add to that a slight bit of Clairvoyance and shit-ton of Magic and you have these predictions."

Eros shrugged his shoulders. "A lot of the magic I do is instinctual and even the ritual to create the Corruptor was made over hundreds of years. I cannot remember all of the details I put into the spell-matrix. I just know, that with the ongoing corruption it will get stronger and more precise. The longer our Avatar holds out, the more useful the Corruptor will become."

Within the moonlit cavern the Ancient One holds a sack of Gold aloft the cave's lake and in one swift motion of it's sharp tail, spills the gold coins into the waters below. It looks down in thought and grumbles impatiently "Should be enough to establish a link, paid the full ritual price, and have correct resonance with... Ah, yes hello Eros it is a pleasure to finally make your acquaintance."

The A.O. looms over the water looking into the homestead of the lust god "Many times have I tried to establish something to stave off my boredom which has been sated so far by your avatar but I must ask... You once mentioned the founders of Hearth-Warming eve in your past and was wondering what events had unfolded from your influence that had led to there corruption?"

Again a dirty smile crept up Eros´lips. "Aah, yes. The corruption of the Founders. My finest work to be honest. You see, before I came to Equestria these six were the best rulers Ponykind could ask for. Just, generous, brave, smart, kind, you name it. They were the paragons of a flechtling culture..."

A long forked tongue ran over his lips and a spout of precum sprung from his cock, as he remembered. "....and I broke them. It was straight at the beginning of my invasion. Equestria had been founded just a decade ago and as such was rather young and not completely organized. When I first arrived in their lands, I didn´t had much of an army. Most of my subject were back in Zebrica, because I preferred to....recruit the local population. Made holding my conquest much easier."

"So when I arrived, I disguised myself as a simple Unicorn. A mage on a journey to distant lands, willing to share his knowledge. I targeted the Court of Princess Platinum first, because it was the most vulnerable. Luna and Celestia were raised at that time by some Earthponies in a town named Earth - I am not kidding - and didn´t want to provoke a confrontation too early. I feared my challenge would further their growth into adversaries. In hindsight, that was mistake. But back to the story.
Starswirl the Bearded had just left the court on some grand adventure - he never came back, by the way - and so it was the susceptible to corruption. When I arrived I immediatly plugged the hole he left, with my knowledge of the lost arcane. Clover was the most suspicious one, but she was loyal to Platinum, so as long as I remained in royal favor, she couldn´t do anything. Platinum on the hand was smitten with me from the very first day."

Eros chuckled and projected an image of Princess Platinum in royal regalia on a balkony. Beside her stood a red unicorn-stallion with rugged good looks, a winning smile and a strong, firm body. Eros, in his unicorn-form, bowed down to her and kissed elegantly her hand. Platinum giggled and blushed.
Eros waved his hand and the scenery changed. They were now in a lavish decorated bedroom. Platinum was laying on a huge bed, her dress ripped apart, her hand gripping Eros´back, while her leg were wide open. Her face was distorted with utter pleasure, while she screamed obscenities, her ample tits jiggling with every hard thrust, bitemarks clearly visible.
Again the picture changed, with a wave of Eros´hand, and now showed the same bedroom, now utterly destroyed with broken furniture everywhere. Eros younger self was sitting naked on a chair, while he looked with an victorious grin down on Platinum, who was laying to his hooves. The Princess hair was completely disheveled, her buttocks red from spanking. Her eyes were rolled back into her head, with her tongue lolling out of her mouth. Her overflowing, to the brim with cum filled pussy was plugged by her own crown, broken and bend.

Eros wished the picture away. "All it took was one, albeit godly, fuck and she was butter in my hands. After that it was rather easy to corrupt the rest of the court. Turns out a lot of stallions had dreamed of fucking their own princess. Who were they to say no, when she offered herself to them."

The alicorn conjured another picture up. This time it showed Clover the Clever in her brown robes, with a book in her hands. "Clover I dealt with differently. After I took control of the court, I baited her with my knowledge of spells unheard of. She was a tough nut to crack, I admit. But once I mentioned, that she could impress Starswirl with this knowledge, she came around. And while I corrupted the court through Princess Platinum, Clover I corrupted through her own students."
The scene changed, to Clover defending herself against a half dozen unicorns, all of them half naked, with mad lust in their eyes. She fought valiantly dodging spells, blocking incantations and trying to blast her way free, before she was struck by a spell from behind, that enlarged her breast to G-Cups. Then another hit, that burned away her clothes. Then a curse struck her, that seemed to make her extremely horny, by the looks of it. Still, she fought on.
Finally she went down, when Eros himself crushed her astral shield and placed an inhibitor ring on her horn.

Again the picture flickered away, to be replaced. This one showed Clover completely broken. As the last of her male students stepped away, of what looked like the end of a gangbang, one could see her pitiful state. She was covered, head to hoof, in cum. Her entire body was defilded by writings like "Bookslut!" and "Free Pussy for All". Her eyes were dim and broken and she held up a sign that said: "Academy Cumdumpster"

"Well, broken would be the better word. Strong mare, too strong for own good. But she served outstandingly as a morale booster for the troops later on, so all in all not bad."

"After I was finished with the Unicorns, I went to Pegasopolis. Officially I was an envoy from Princess Platinum to Commander Hurricane, to negotiate the disarmament, he had agreed on a few years back, but hadn´t implemented. Turns out, the Commander was not so keen on surrendering Pegasus Sovereignty even after the events of Hearths Warming Eve. But he was losing ground among his supporters to his former deputy, Private Pansy. She was the strongest advocate for an equestrian unification and had begun to gain widespread support among the pegasi. Naturally I offered the Commander my help in this crisis."

Again a picture showed Eros and Commander Hurricane standing beside a large gathering of pegasi, in an amphitheater. On the stage stood Pansy who held a speech and was rewarded with roaring applause.

"Other than the Court, I didn´t need to subtle here. Pegasopolis was isolated from the rest of Equestria and so the chances of news getting out was slim. Especially as long as Hurricane held the military under her control. I just made sure to....enhance her soldiers."

The scene changed to a large group of soldiers flying down in the Amphitheater. Other than normal pegasus, their fur was of dark colours and their wings were leathery batwings, and they possessed sharp teeth. The Bat-Ponies swooped down on the Gathering and wrestled Pansy to the ground. She tried to flee, but they grabbed her, ripped apart her tunica, then violently suppressed the rest of the audience, before dragging her and her followers naked away.

"It was publicly announced that Pansy had planned a hostile takeover and that she and her companions were branded traitors, with a new...punishment to dissuade any further dissidents."

A marketplace was shown. In the middle stood a platform with Pansy and four other mares chained to a wooden block. They were completely naked and their butts were arrayed before the crowd. A herald proclaimed their sentence before stepping aside. First there was hesitation. But then a light red glimmer layed itself over the crowd and the first stallions stepped forward, dropping their trousers and grabbing Pansy´s buttock with lecherous delight. Then they plunged their cocks into her cunt. First she screamed in pain, but after a while a grunts were replaced by moans. The red glimmer enveloped her as well and soon she was groaning and moaning like a common whore, inviting more stallions. At the end she was begging for more cocks to fill her needy holes.
While the public rape took its course, with the feverish crowd screaming and hollering encouragments to the rapists and insults towards the traitors, Eros could be seen on the sideline, his horn glowing and his smile growing.

"After that it was peanuts to convince Hurricane to pledge loyalty to me, especially after I showed her what I did to Platinum and Clover and I dropped some hints, that she could resume her slave raids in the neighboring countries. That bitch was so battleager, it was almost disturbing. I think the only way she could get off was, when she was beating someone to the ground. At least I saw orgasm quite a few times, when we fought against Celestias armies."

The picture now showed Eros sitting on Platinums Throne, with the former princess laying before his hooves like a pet, complete with collar. Commander Hurricane stood beside the throne, clad in a formfitting armor, that pronounced her bust, and adorned with spikes and chains. Her mane was styled into a mohawk and she had multipe pirecing in her lips, nose and eyebrows. Between her legs one could see a steady stream of pussy juice, that came from her glistening cunt, which was filled with a nubby, thorny dildo.

"After I had took over the Unicorns and Pegasus I finally turned towards the Earthponies. For those of you, who expect now another scheme from me, I must dissapoint. I had defeated two of three of the main tribes of Equestria and had now a steady stream of recruits. I felt secure enough to bring my succubi and incubi over from the old continent. Then I simply attacked the Earth Ponies."

The scenery was dark, as in a moonlit night a small army of frightened earthpony-militia was standing before their town. On the horizon they could see the host of Eros army approaching, the moon itself was soon covered by the sheer number of pegasi phalanx and bat-pony raiders. It wasn´t even a battle.

Soon the bodies of the militia laid dead on the fields and the army looted and pillaged the village. Mares were dragged screaming and kicking from their husbands, who either died fighting or surrendered on the spot. A few stallions could be seen, raping their own comrades, as they betrayed their community. From the biggest house Chancellor Puddinghead could be seen running out of the door as fast as his pink fat belly would allow him. Behind him, dragged forcibly by a leash, was Smart Cookie. Naked, her eyes gleaming with rage. Puddinghead hastily threw himself on the ground, when Eros approached him. He then offered his former page Smart Cookie as a gift to his new overlord, as long as he be spared. Eros cocked his head, now in full alicorn glory, and laughed triumphantly.

"I spared Puddinghead. He had the good sense, to know when he had lost. I gave him Smart Cookie back under the condition of his undying loyalty. He was coward, yes. But he had an undeniably genius, when it came to administration. I wouldn´t throw an asset like that away. And he proved me right."

Now the village was shown again. This time it was in middle of repairs, with earthponies trying to rebuild their home. The first building that was finished was a giant hall in the middle of the place. One could see a huge streams of stallions and mares, zebras, griffins, caribous and yaks going in and out. In the hall itself was a wooden platform, where an array of naked and chained mares were shown. They signs with different price tags on them and Puddinghead could been seen directing the auction, with Smart Cookie at his side. The orange mare smiled as she was groped by her master, eagerly pleasing him with her mouth, while a hand of hers absently stroked over her flank, in which Puddingheads Cutie Mark was now branded over her own.

"Puddingheads Slavemarket was a huge succes and would remain so, until its closure under Princess Celestia." Eros said.

His hand waved again and his horn projected on last picture. From the burning village and the roaring Eros a pair of small fillies could be seen. One white, with pink mane, one dark blue, with a lighter shade blue in her mane. Both of them were fleeing into the night, into the Everfree.

Eros looked upon the picture with regret and a hint of nostalgia. "I failed to catch them. In my eagerness to conquer the earth-ponies, I had also allowed them the opportunity to escape. And in my arrogance I didn´t feel the need to pursue them. Why should I? I had won. But a few years would pass, and then the Sisters would return from the Everfree. They had build up a kingdom there, with the refugees from the other three tribes and a few centuries later, they would come back with an army. The ensuing war would turn the Everfree into the nightmarish place it is now, as our magics clashed. And soon they would drive me and my subjects to the border and the rest you know..."

Eros was quiet for a moment, recounting those days. The mistakes that had cost him everything. No! The mares who had cost him everything. All of this. All the centuries of preparation and planning. All that was for revenge. For the day, where he would see Celestia broken and defeated before his hooves.

He shook his head and turned towards the Corruptor. "But enough about the old days. Time for the present.", he said and pressed down on the screen to see the avatars progress.

"I can see, that you have broken a mare. Splendid! I know, some of you think that is a liability, but let me show what can gain from that." He called up a screen that showed a number of locked options. A picture of Roseluck Cutiemark popped up and with small victory tune, some of the options were unlocked.

"As you know, the avatar can be strenghtened through CPs. But all of these traits are mundane, in reality confined. Break Points, BPs for short, however let you enhance him with abilities that more of magical nature. Now, don´t misunderstand, he will not have access to actual magic. That is a trait he has to aquire. Instead think of these abilites as manifestations of my powers through him. On much, much weaker scale of course, but still. They may give the ability to produce more cum, than his balls can actually have or gift him with scent, that makes females in his near vicinity aroused, and so on."

"In the end you have balance your need for these abilities, against the disadvantages of having some broken mares. Also, the more powerful the mare you break, the more powerful the abilities you gain."

A question popped up on the monitor. "As to why that is possible? Well, just think about like this. I am the God of Lust. And now you have a mare whose only conscious thoughts are about fucking. See it as a sacrifice. I gain strenght through that, and in turn I can bless my avatar."

He leaned back on his throne. "You also gained some more CPs and new traits. So I think I should leave the further planning to you. Just remember, plan carefully. Trying to fulfill multiple goals at once will lead to failure. Tackle on problem after another."

With that he closed his eyes and began to fap to distant memories of glory and sex.

Author's Note

Aaand I´m baack! :pinkiehappy:

For anyone, who wondering where I have been all these weeks, check out my blog. There I explain my absence. On to the story.

The whole Founders Story I originally wanted to put in as chapter for "My Bad Endings", but seeing as the Christmas season is over and all my files were destroyed, I decided it would fit here better. Its basixally a very cynic take an Hearths Warming Eve.
I enjoyed the episode, I must say. But people don´t change that easily and I thought that this is one of scenarios, that would have played out in a less ideal world. Platinum, Hurricane und Puddinghead were jerks and why would that change, just because they were freed from an Ice-spell. Of course I took liberties with their gender and personality, but it wouldn´t had been fun otherwise.

On the other point, the Abilities are my last addition to the current gameplay. I feel like, if I add more rules, it would just get too complicated for me and the commenters, especially for those who come fresh to us.
Eros described the cons and pro of mind breaking pretty well himself, so I add only a fe details. The abilities can be gamechangers. They overwrite part of the rules that govern the rest of the world, even if they are weak. As such they balance out the risk of having sexcrazed idiots, Zexis needs to hide. And remember, any mare that you break loses all of her abilities and skills, other than those related to sex. Sure you could break rarity into mindless sexmachine, but it would mean you would lose all her assets, intellingence and contacts. In return the unlocked and purchaseble Ability will that much stronger. So choose wisely.

Other than that, procedure like last time. Tell me which traits and abilities you wanna buy and/or enhance in the comments and have fun. :twilightsmile:

Recipes

Sarmandos Suggestion Powder 2.0 : A powder that is made out of Poppy Seeds, magic stone and Fools Salt. If ingested orally, it places the affected person into a state of mind, where suggestions are most effective. After the improvement the effect are now stronger than before and will lead to medium alterations in the subjects personality depending on the suggestions. These changes are now stronger and will be permanent, most of the time. Most effective if subject is asleep. Preferred ingestions method: Spiced up drinks, that hide the powders recognizable taste. Can now be put on surfaces and ingested over skin-contact.
Alternative ingestion method: Contaminated utensils, like clothing or bedsheets. Keep in mind, that ANY suggestion will lead to alteration and that the state only last for forty minutes.

The Emotion Hormone Pill: This pill, which is won from Bullfrog Tears and Blood Lotus overloads the biological hormone production and causes an amplification of desires and a decreases of mental inhibitions of the subjects mind. Basest wishes and thoughts are said out loud, and a stronger application or a weak resistance to the drug can cause sever changes in the subjects social behaviour. Particulary useful as an interrogation method or to implicate rivals.
Caution is advised: Extended exposure to the drug, can cause severe changes in the subject personality, as the rewiring of the mind becomes permanent.

Lust Trinket: One of the lowest form of enchanments. Barely even magical, this talisman relies more faith in its abilities and associated emotion, than actual power. Even though it has its uses as an easy to hide object, that induce a gradual accumulation of lust in the targets body, that only grows stronger with passing time and proximity. While it´s uses a rather mundane and there are multiple stronger alternatives, such aprhodisiacs, this trinket serves as subtle tool for corruption and is a good starting point for further studies in the field of enchantments.

Aphrodisiac-Incense: This is a simple incence, made out of several aphrodisiacs. It burns slowly over an hour and raises the libido and lust of everyone, who smells it. This is a slow, long-building effect that requires some time to show its effect. Once it hits, however, it raises one lust permanently and makes the subject more susceptible to suggestions and lustful actions.
Only way to defend against it is by taking the antidote beforehand or getting out of its sphere of influence.

Truth-Amulet: This amulet is enchanted with a simple truth spell. This spell functions as a compulsion for the target to reveal its deepest, darkest secret. It had only limited charges and, depending on the targets willpower, can expend more than one of these charges to force its effect, before it needs to be recharged. The target itself is not aware it is being manipulated, unless it is proficient in magic itself.

Arcane Tattoos: This ink allows oneself to inscribe spells on ones own body, enabling spellcasting even for those unskilled in the magical arts. The amount and power of the spells depends on the craftmanship of the tattoos and the quality of the ink.
Caution: Spells stronger than the enchanting ability of the user, can put enorm stress on ones body. In extreme cases they will such things as: Spontanous combustion, loss of limbs and or brain hemorrhage.

Further Information

Astral: Astral magic is most common form of magic and at the same time, the most rare. It is used by almost every unicorn in its form of telekinesis, which has a huge variety of applications and different levels of strength. However higher form of astral magic is much mor difficult to perform, as it relies heavily on magical theory and therefore requires a trained mind and a huge knowledge of magical studies. Those who fulfill these requirements, find themselves having access to spells that can range from shield spells to outright mind control. However one should note, that what astral magic has in versatility, it lacks in strength. A fire spell will almost always break through an astral shield of the same level. As such this type of magic is generally considered to be most useful in subtle applications or when wielded by a quick thinking mind, who can make the most out versatile magic.

Dark: Dark magic is energy in its rawest form. It is considered the first use of formal magic in ancient history. As such it generally considered to be an outdated discipline, only used by villains and barbarians. However dark magic has some advantages over other, more civilized forms. Dark spells do not require much use of spell matix or other complex rituals. Instead they can be channeled quicker and more powerful, than any other spell discipline, enabling hard hitting sorcery and quick casting. It triumphs over any other form of magic of the same level and is best suited for violent applications. However outside of that, there isn´t much use for it. It also drains its users magic reserves rather quickly, as the exchange of energy to magic is crude and ineffective. A loss of control can spell desaster for any foolish practitioner, so caution is advised. However, should one be able to master this most dangerous of all magical displicines, few would be able to stand in ones way.

Lore of Mundus

Griffon-Aeries

”There exist numerous Griffon Aeries over all of Mundus and they all are different from each other. With cultures as diverse as pony kind’s. Around three thousand years ago, griffons were the dominant species. Their Aeries had conquered half of the known world and were divided into three Aeries. Griffonstone was in the North, occupying the Goldbeak Mountains. They possessed the greatest wealth of them all, with deep mines driven into the mountains where they worked their slaves, mostly ponies. Their empire, which included what would later became Equestria, fell after five hundred years when the monster named Arimaspi broke into their palace, killed their king, and escaped with the Idol of Boreas. After that the Griffonstone Aerie broke apart into numerous smaller Aeries, who all vied for dominance."

"To the West, on the Continent of Lemur, was the Aerie Highwing. It was the most powerful one, with huge armies and swathes of steppe lands. Where the griffons could hunt and feed their population. Their society was built on the back of zebra slaves, who worked the fields and served as game for the griffons to hunt. Their Capital was on the lonely mountain Kimajajeu, from where they overlooked the entire steppe. However, that nation crumbled to dust as well. As it turned out, Kimajajeu was a dormant volcano and in 2300 B.E. (Before Equestria) it erupted, destroying Highwing and killing most of the griffons there. All that remained of them, were some outpost and smaller Aeries, but they fell when the Zebras saw their chances and rebelled. That was the point where Zebrica began its first steps as a nation."
"And the last Great Aerie is Loch Beack. It lies in the Old World and is the only aerie that survived the ravages of time. The griffons there settled in a mountainous and hilly region on the Island of Alba. Other than Griffonstone and Highwing, they abolished slavery after they lost a war with the native ponies of that island. The loss of that war also drove them to the north of that land and ironically, that secured their survival. They had not idol as keystone to their society or had to fear a slave-uprising. They were divided into clans and elected their king and this decentralisation made sure that a sudden crisis would not cause their aerie to collapse. They would continue warring with the southern pony kingdoms, but last I heard of them they were still independent."

Zebrica - Early History

As I already mentioned, the Fall of Highwing, caused a widespread rebellion among the zebra slaves. Unable to contain this uprising, the griffons soon either retreated into their aeries, to weather the storm, or were overrun. After that war was over, the zebras united under Zara Shuku, a powerful shamaness who in turn crowned herself High Priestess of the Spirits. The Theocracy of Zebrica was born."

"For a while, everything went well. The young nation was thriving, new alchemical arts were discovered and the commune with the spirits of the lands was discovered, which empowered the priesthood, as they were able to enrichen the soil and bring life-giving rain. That early golden age continued for about two hundred years, give or take. Until, one day, Zara Shuku - who at that point, achieved immortality - disappeared. No zebra today knows where she has gone to. Some say she has wandered over to the Spirit Plane, others say she grew weary and disappointed over her fellow zebras. Fact is, Zebrica had lost it´s leader and protector."

"And enemies soon appeared at their gates. A upstart young nation of sphinxes, called Kemet, soon attacked them with an army of chariots and undead, under the leadership of a Godking. The priesthood tried to resist them, but failed. The first war forced them to pay tribute in form of gold and slaves. The second war took half their territory from them. And the third war reduced them to a single city. When the fourth war arrived, it seemed like that would be the end of Zebrica."

"But they were lucky, in a sense. First, a valiant young hero arrived, who overthrew the incompetent priesthood, and installed himself as king. His name was Zanjawe and he managed to fend off the invading sphinxes, by assassinating their Godking. But that alone, would not have saved them, if it were not for the foolishness of priests of Kemet. In their desperation to save their ruler, they bound his soul to his dead body, essentially reviving him as an undead mummy. But by doing that, they tore open the barrier between life and death. Soon their kingdom was ravaged by the dead and torn apart. Amidst all that chaos, Zanjawe lead his small army and reclaimed a large portion of zebra land."

"The undead plague would eventually pass, but Kemet was split into a lower kingdom and a upper kingdom and would not be reunited for the next four hundred years. Zanjawe however, would soon be assassinated himself and his title fell into the hands of his brother. The zebras would fall apart into numerous tribes, with the zebrican king only having nominal rulership over them."

Origin of the Everfree Forest

"Now the Everfree is the product of my war with Celestia and Luna. I told you, that the two had escaped my conquest of the Three Tribes and the corruption of The Founders. They hid in the Everfree Forest and build their Castle there. As mentioned before, they attracted refugees and formed a small nation. When our war began, the Everfree was an old, but peaceful forest. And the Sisters had made sure that the will of forest was on their side. Any attempt I made on entering these woods would be met. Not only by their soldiers but also by the spirits of the land, as well. And they could attack my borders from it at any time."

"So naturally, I began corrupting it. Since the Will was peaceful and desired harmony, it was on their side. I needed to make it angry and evil and I thought it would then choose mine. Foolish, in hindsight. I started by having orgies at it fringes, defiling virgins with my demons. Then I let them give birth at the roots of trees and baptized the infants with my corruption, letting the magic and the fresh violated souls seep into the ground. The Sisters fought me at every turn of course, but I made my way slowly into the forest, inch by inch. After a decade of that, I successfully corrupted a large portion of the forest."

"As it turned out however, the Will did not choose my side. Instead it lashed out against everything that it deemed foreign. Animals turned feral and monsters began to dwell under its leaves. Vines began to rape any passersby and nymphes began pull soldiers into the trees to devour them. Not all was lost, as the Sisters lost their protection of the Everfree and despite the added dangers, I could finally engage them in open combat. The war took up in pace and the myriads of spells from either side twisted the forest even more."

Author's Note

So, this is our data sheet.

Here all the information about relationships, traits, points, etc. will be stored. It will be updated every chapter and I will put a date into the title, so you know how up to date it is.
I also hope, that the description for the traits cleared some things up and will help with further strategies. More traits will be added, when they pop up.

Keep in mind, that this is NOT an actual chapter. Any suggestion posted here will be ignored. You can still chat, comment and formulate plans, but be aware that neither Zexis or Eros can hear you.

I repeat: NO SUGGESTIONS!

Other than that: Have fun. :twilightsmile:

Abilities: Everystallion

The shadowy figure appears once again, walking through the shadowy fog as he looks upon Zexis in his slumber.

"Well, Zexis, it seems your efforts have unlocked more powers, which is excellent. You should now have an affinity for a number of things that, when combined with your plant affinity, should let you cause quite a few subtle changes through Ponyville if applied to the countless plants in such a rural town."

Shaking his head, the figure then causes an image of Roseluck to appear, "Also, though breaking her seems to have gotten you more powers, it's also a living time bomb waiting to be discovered. You can't keep her purely as a sex slave. Ponies will ask questions. And, might I point out, there's a way to aid you in making her useful again."

With a wave of his arm, the image zones in on her cutie mark. "Ponies, I think, will be easier to regain their minds for than any other species, because of these marks. They're actual magic, and maintain a key part of their personalities, no matter how much you break their mind. With this in mind, you could rebuild her from the ground up with that as the foundation."

A smile seems to cut itself out of the shadowy figure's flat face, "...wouldn't stop her from being a total slut due to your efforts though. Not that we'd want to stop that, but we still need her to be able to not draw attention to your actions, and your excuse for her absence will only last so long before questions are asked."

The image changes to a schematic, showing Zexis sitting down and just talking with Roseluck.

"Perhaps just some discussing with her each day will help bring out her consciousness again. Like, say, offering what she wants in sex for little advancements in gaining... well, gaining sapience, cause right now, she seems only sentient, not sapient. Doesn't mean you'll have any luck returning her to how she was, but at least if she's manageable enough to fit into the public eye, that should be fine for now. Plus, it'd make her even more loyal to you for helping making her able to live on her own if need be. She'd owe you so much then."

The figure smiles wider again, "Speaking of owing you... with the girls now your slaves, you can have them train on the side while you're away, to get them to learn more skills. You could make them your first skimpy sexy agents of corruption, helping work in the background and reporting to you their successes each night. Would make corrupting the town easier."

The figure nods, remembering something, "Well, I've got things to do. Best of luck in your endeavors, and I hope your new abilities prove useful to you."

"Cock.....sucking....cooock..." With a greedy smile, Roseluck crawled towards Zexis loins. Saliva was dripping from her mouth and she trembled in anticipation of release. Of another mindblowing orgasm, like she got the first time. Something that would take her thoughts away from the burning feeling between her legs, at least for a few hours.

Zexis clicked his tongue angrily. He grabbed the mare by the shoulders and stopped her from advancing any further. Roseluck looked up with wounded eyes. "No...cock? Please, I....need it. Let me suck...", she pleaded with big eyes, like a puppy.

But Zexis shook his head, picked her up and carried her over to her bed. They were in her room above the Flowershop. After a good nights rest, Zexis had spend most of the morning with the task of restoring Roselucks mind, at least to functioning degree. Well, tried to, anyway. As it turned out, this was easier said then done. First he had tried, getting through her with words. But any attempt of conversation had failed, as the only thing the mare cared about now, was getting fucked.

Then he had brought his suggestion powder an had tried conditioning her back to a normal person.
That had failed as well. It had taken him a few tries, before he realized, that her mind was more or less intact. However due to the overdosage of the hormone pills, her body produced now high quantities of lust-hormones. Simply said, she was in a constant state of heat.

Which wouldn´t had been much of problem, had she been able to satisfy her newly awakened libido. But due to him tying her to her bed and denying her release for over nine hours, it had broken down all safeguards in her brain. And when he had brought exactly that, finally, it triggered in her an addiction, that was akin to a heavy Zapp-junky. Now everything in her only cared about the next orgasm, the next climax. After that she was usually lucid for a few hours, but it wouldn´t last. And it certainly wasn´t something that she could hide in day to day life.

Zexis frowned, as he looked down on the panting mess of a mare. Roseluck had now given up on pleasuring him and had instead spread her legs wide as an invitation, while simultaneously plunging her fingers into her drooling pussy. The zebras eyes wandered to her butt. Where before a rose had blossomed there, was now the image of the same flower lying plucked in a small pool of white liquid.

This was the shocking discovery he had made this morning that had animated him in trying to treat her condition. Roselucks cutiemark had changed. Or better said, had been corrupted. Because clearly this had happened because of Zexis actions. He hadn´t even known that something like that was even possible. Lily and Daisy hadn´t heard of it either. But here it was, clear on her butt as her fur.

Zexis theorized, that this had happened because of her singleminded obsession with sex now. Her entire purpose had now realigned itself to suit her newfound desire. But still, it was suprising. He looked Roseluck in the lusthazed eyes. He had corrupted Roseluck down to her very being. A terrifying discovery. And strangely enough, it didn´t bother him. Sure it was annoying, having to deal with this mess, but it was also exhilerating. To think that he could change a person so thoroughly. Even if it happened by accident.

His right hand grabbed Roselucks shoulder and threw her around, so that her butt faced him. Than he grabbed her mane and pulled her towards him, so that her back was resting against his torso. "Time to give you what you want.", he growled in her ear. "Thats all you good for now, anyway."

Then his trousers dropped and his cock stood ready. He aligned himself with her cunt, which earned him a desperate whimper from his slave. She wanted this badly. He took aim, pulled his hips away and then thrusted with full force forward...

With a satisfied sigh, Zexis closed the door behind him. Now, Roseluck would stay quiet for while. He threw one last glance into her room, where she laid on her bed, her eyes rolled back into her head and her ass still in the air, red from the spankings and plastered white with spunk that flowed from her cunt down to the sheets. He had to tell Daisy to change them, before tonight.

Zexis shooked his head and walked downstairs. That Roseluck was broken for at least quite some time, was disappointing. But it would not be too detrimental for his plans. After all, it would take at least a few days before someone would grow suspisciuos. And even then he could take her to Redheart, which would buy at least a one or two months. So, all in all not that huge of a problem. Especially considering his other projects.

Zexis stopped, before he entered the shop-area, before a mirror, that hung on the wall and mustered himself. He didn´t look bad. Most certainly not for a zebra. His icy blue eyes pierced from a clear cut face, with defined cheekbones and a strong chin. His mohawk-styled mane was well cut and a rebellious little hair fell from it, giving him a certain air rougish charm. That, coupled with his clear defined chestmuscles and light six-spack, meant, that he could most certainly call himself handsome. A fact, that he was quite proud of, as it made his seduction of the mares easier. Sure, Ponyville had proven to him, that you needed more than good looks to make friends here. But he was certain, that sooner or later, he would make every mare in this town understand, what their real purpose was. Especially that stupid bitch Applejack!

How she could call him weak, was still a mystery. It was fairly obvious, that he wasn´t a slouch, when it came to physical activities. So, why the obvious lie? Well, probably, because she didn´t trust him. Most likely because she was racist, even though she wouldn´t admit it. But those farmponies were always more "conservative" than the townsfolk. Still, Zexis had expected more from the Element of Honesty!

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It wouldn´t do him any good to get angry now. Only a calm mind prevailed over adversity. And he had a plan, so there was no reason for high rising emotions.

He stepped away from the mirror and into the shop, where both Daisy and Lily prepared everything for the opening. Both wore their usual clothes, as Zexis didn´t want them to arouse suspicion. When they saw him, their faces lighted up. Daisy walked up to him and hugged his right arm. More gestures of affection couldn´t follow, as they were now in the open. "Good morning, Zexis.", said Daisy, "Anything we can do for you, before you head out?"

Zexis grinned at their obedience. "Actually there is." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small wooden sculpture. It was tiny, barely a trinket. Made out of mahagoni-wood, it resembled a heart with dark lines etched into it, that flowed together in the middle like a maelstrom.

"This is a Lust-Trinket I created. They will help convincing more of Ponyville to our side. I want you to smuggle it onto a customer, without them noticing." He gave the trinket to Lily, who looked at critically, before nodding in confirmation. "For now, use only one. Hide it in a way, that nopony can find on accident. And only give to one, who you think would most likely give in to pressure. Somepony who is weakwilled and visits regulary. I want to find out, how effective it is."

Both mares listened intently, before nodding again. Zexis looked at them satisfied. His patience had paid off with them. They now followed his command without question and if this experiment worked, he had a good start of corrupting Ponyville at large.

The trinkets were an idea he came up with, when he had experimented with his drugs on Roseluck. He had carved a ritualistic container out of wood and siphoned a little bit of her lust into it. It was just a small trick, barely something you could call enchantment, as it was more a faith-induced talisman, than actual magic. But it was one of the things he could remember clearly, from watching his father back in Zebrica. There, they were used little charms. Things that kept a household frisky and sexual active. They worked with proximity and time. The closer they were to a recipient and the longer they stayed within reach, the better they worked. And because their effect were so small and gradual, one could barely notice it.

Back in Zebrica nobody really cared about them, because they were everywhere and sexual activity was part of daily life. Here in Ponyville however, they would have a much greater effect. If placed well, they could make even the most innocent mare have wet dreams on regular schedule. And they wouldn´t even know, why.

Sadly, more was not to it. These trinkets would not transform one into a dripping slut. Heck, they wouldn´t even have much influence on ones personality. But they were good for preparation and could create an opening for further corruption.

Purple eyes flash in the darkness.

You're going to need every ally you can get if you want to achieve you're goals. Hmm perhaps it's time to check to see how Scootaloo and her friends are doing. If you get those three, than you have a way to spy on three of the Elements. Not to mention they would could be a good way to corrupt the foals and fillies of Ponyville.

Zexis made sure, Daisy and Lily knew exactly what they were doing, before saying goodbye and stepping out of door. He had still a lot to do. Next up were Scootaloo and Birdhoof. He changed the doorsign of the Flowershop to "Open". Then he turned around and walked towards the Orphanage...

At the Orphanage

Zexis was greeted with an unusual sight, when he came around the corner. Birdhoof stood in front of a small group of colts and fillies and handed out lunchboxes. That in and of itself wouldn´t be too strange, if it were any other pony. But it was clear from the suprised, and occasionally downright shocked, look on the small ones faces, that this was certainly not the norm for their caretaker.

Their suprise got even bigger, when Birdhoof opened his mouth. "I had time to think about some things...starting today, things are going to change.", he said earnestly, "I will try to be a better stallion from now on. A better caretaker. And maybe...someday...even a friend." He pointed at the lunchboxes. "Just take these as an apology. And..." He searched for words for a moment. Then he smiled warm. "Have a nice day."

It sounded almost sincere, even to Zexis ears. And he was aware of the reason of Birdhoofs change of heart. To these fillies it looked probably like their tyrannical caretaker had transformed into a completely different stallion. No wonder they were absolutely dumbfounded.

Eventually, they all took their lunchboxes. Hesitantly at first, but soon, after it was clear that this wasn´t a trap, with less fear. The last one, a small blue filly, with braids in her ice-blue mane, even thanked him. Then they walked off to the school, talking amongst themselves, no doubt about Birdhoofs strange behaviour.

Zexis let them pass, before walking over to fat unicorn himself. "I see you already try to make good impressions.", he said, foregoing the greeting.

Birdhoof noticed him and for a moment a shimmer of fear ran over his face, before being replaced by adoration and joy. "Zexis! How good to see you." He shook his hand. Then he looked towards the road, seeing the foals sowly disappearing into the town. Then, when they were finally alone, he let out a deep sigh and wiped his forehead from sweat. "Phew, this harder than I thought. I am not used to smile all the time. Think I get cramps from this."

Zexis just laughed. "Don´t worry, you´ll get used to it. Just don´t overdo it. Otherwise they will probably call for doctor, to check if you cracked."

The unicorn grunted sceptically, but then a little smile crept up his lips. "Snow Flower, that is the blue one, already asked me this morning, if I am feeling okay. They seem to be feeling just as awkward as I do about my current behaviour." He scratched his flabby chin and then continued. "But, to be honest, it´s actually a little bit refreshing to see a smile on their lips every now and then.", he admitted.

Zexis raised his eyebrow. Yeah, right. He would not fooled so easily. "Enough for you to continue?"

Birdhoof shrugged. "Sure. After all, you said it´s gonna help your plan and if I can contribute..." Then the familiar dirty smile showed itself again. "And the prospect of fucking them without repercussions. Thats one hell of a motivator."

The zebra just shook his head. Loyalty or not, Birdhoof would always remain Birdhoof. But then again thats what he needed, so who was he to complain?

Then he heard a door close and looked up. Scootaloo just walked out of the Orphanage. Other than the fillies from before, she wasn´t dressed for school. Instead she wore sports-shirt and some tight running leggings. The leggings in particular hugged her tight ass and thin waist in most alluring manner, though she probably wasn´t aware of it. She also had a helm on her head and protection gear on her knees and elbows. Her hooves were stuck in a pair of rollerblades.

"Good morning.", greeted Zexis her. "Do you not have school?"

Scootaloo looked up, looking suprised on seeing him here, before relaxing. She smiled at the greeting. "Not before the second class.", she answered his question. She fastened her rollerblades and drove to him and Birdhoof. "I make a round before that. Have to stay in shape, you know?"

Zexis mustered her fit legs and her lithe body, that practically begged him to teach her other ways to "stay in shape". But he controlled himself. Instead his eyes lingered on her rollerblades for second. Then he got an idea. A grin parted his lips.

He turned to Birdhoof. "You know what? I know exactly how you can show everypony, that you´ve changed."

"You do?"

"Change?", asked Scootaloo.

"Yes, indeed.", anwered Zexis both their questions. "You see, our dear Birdhoof here wants to turn his life around and I agreed to help him with that.", he explained to Scootaloo. "And I just know the perfect way to start: By training with you, Scootaloo!"

"WHAT!?", came it from both.

"Oh, no no no. Out of question! I do not train. Not a chance in tartarus!" Birdhoof shook his head violently, his dismay clearly written on his face.

"I am not running with this creep! Forget it!", protested Scootaloo, angrily flapping her small wings.

"Calm down, both of you.", said Zexis in a strong, but gentle voice. He raised his hands in defence. "I know that sounds like a bad idea-"

"The WORST idea!", interrupted him Scootaloo.

"-BUT!" Zexis wrestled the control of the argument back to him. "But...it will help you both. First of all Birdhoof. Because a healthy body begets a healthy mind. And will also teach him some discipline, which you can agree, he needs badly."

"Excuse me!?"

"I also intend on giving you free rein, how his training looks like. If you want to take him on hard, do so." That got Scootaloo attention. Her eyes lit up, as she looked over to Birdhoof. A thoughtful look crept on her face and on the edge of her lips was a wicked smile to be seen.

"Just...be fair. No revenge or anything, got it?", said Zexis, immediatly, as he saw that. "After all, we want him to change for the better. Not running him down like a mule."

Scootaloo seemed to seriously consider it, so the zebra decided to throw on last incentive into the ring. "Just think on how proud Princess Twilight and the Elements of Harmony will be, when they hear that you helped reforming Birdhoof.", he whispered.

That did it! He could see from Scootaloos dreamy expression, that he hit bullseye with that one. "Rainbow Dash would praise me...", she muttered under her breath. Than she turned to Zexis. "Alright, I´m in!"

"Hey! And I don´t have a say in this?", cried out a dismayed Birdhoof.

Zexis quickly took him to the side. "This is the perfect opportunity to corrupt her. When we want to get our hands on Rainbow Dash, we need Scootaloo, understood? I relying here on you, Birdhoof." He threw a quick glance at Scootaloo. "And maybe, just maybe, if you do good...I will let you help educating her, okay?"

And that convinced Birdhoof. Even though he clearly wasn´t thrilled with the idea of physical training, the prospect of getting to fuck a willing and submissive Scootaloo gave him the motivation he needed. He sighed, before turning around to the small pegasus. "Well.....shit, alright. Just...take it easy on me, please?"

Scootaloo grinned. "Nope!", she said happily, "In fact, we going to start now! Come one, run!" She clapped her hands.

Birdhoof wanted to protest, but a look of Zexis shut him up. Instead he let his shoulders sack and accepted his fate. As both of them began to run off, Zexis could her Scootaloo beginning to chant: "One, two, three, four. Move those legs! And if I see you staring at my butt, I´m going to let run double!" She clearly was enjoying herself.

Zexis on the other hand, took the opportunity and entered the orphanage. Then he walked straight to Scootaloos room. Arriving there he opened the door, which was not locked, luckily. Then he reached into his pockets and pulled out one of the lust-trinkets. He had already an idea, how to corrupt Scootaloo. For that he just needed her to accept her depraved past and relish in it. When he could make her realize that whoring was her true calling, everything else would be a cakewalk. Raising her lust was the first step for that.

Eventually he found good place for the trinket to hide, as he slipped it under her mattress. It would only need to stay there for one or two days, and soon the little orange pegasus would have some steamy nights. And after that she would bet butter in his hands.

The mist rolls back showing a blue dragon, with a silver scaled chest and thighs walking up a stair way, with a lovely green dragoness following after him.

“Are you sure, it is wise to leave my Lord? Is it really necessary.” The green dragoness asks, though her tone shows that she thinks it’s a stupid idea, the blue dragon lord, can’t help but notice the undertone of worry in her voice.

“You know, Fluorspar, that only I can accomplish this mission. Only I can enter the Monastery of Fang’s peak without attracting attention. We may need their knowledge about flesh craft in the future.” Fimbulwinter spoke with authority.

“Flesh craft? You mean your ability to regrow, or grow parts of the body? You never mentioned where you learned that arcane art before.” Fluorspar, spoke in interest.

“I found them, before I became the Ice Dragon Lord, I just lost one of my wings and arms, and it was due to them that I was able to recover. I feel like I owe it to them to bring them into the true way of dragon.” Fimbulwinter speaks, his mind seems to be elsewhere.

“Fluorspar, please use your talents to interpret what Eros said to me. I don’t understand what he meant by, ‘If she so desires her female compatriots, let her have them. In way only a male can. Let her feel the elation of a cock being buried into a dripping snatch, the power that comes with this dominance and let her drown in it.’ I hope you can tell me, if he means corrupting her into craving males to have sex with her, or use flesh craft to actually give her a cock so she can the elation of a cock being buried into a dripping snatch.” The dragon Lord sighed.

“Of course,” Fluorspar spoke with a bow.

“Also please inform Lord Eros, that Zelix should get plus Affinity to alchemy (Potions and Powder or Amulets or Enchantments) - 2CP, Affinity to magic - 2 CP, handsome - 1CP, and Everystallion - 1BP” Lord FImbulwinter spoke then kissed Fluorspar while playing with her snatch with a claw, while the other flicking on the nipple on one of her tits

They enter a room where in a room of blue crystals and silks of various colors, where several beautiful dragonesses lay in seductive poses for the Ice Dragon Lord.

Fimbulwinter, now at full mast, speaks to them. “My harem, I will be gone for a few weeks,”

“AHH” the collective dragonesses complain.

“I will return, but before I do, I need to make sure my balls are empty. So please, worship me. Show me just how much you adore, my body, my muscles, my cock, my entire being.”

Only a second pass before 20 dragonesses jumped on to the waiting Dragon Lord. His cock now at full mast and dripping at the all the lick of the five tongues on his cock, the mouths kissing his arms, legs, inner thighs, feet.

“Zelix, you did a great job today. Birdhoof is now loyal to you and I think he will be an even better asset now. Also see Spike succumb to his true….Ahhhh… Dragon nature was very pleasing to me. While I am sad it was only for a minute, it feels my heart with joy to see him becoming like a true dragon.”

“With that said, remember the three places to focus. The first, is Rainbow Dash, but that one can wait until Birdhoof gives us good information. With that taken care of, remember…… There, right there Rose Quartz…….. To visit Spike. See if he is alright and how did his confrontation with Twilight ended. Finally, please visit Sweet Apple FFFUUUUUCCCKKKKK……. Acers.

“Big…. Mac’s… Family is in the red. They need your intervention as soon as possible….. AAAAAHHHHH.. So, first visit Spike, then go to Sweet Apple Acers, finally keep…. Dash… on the back.. FFFFUUUCCCKKKK.” Fumbulwinter's cock errupted light a hotspring geyser, a slight press of a claw pointed the cock so it wants pointing straight up, but now slightly to the left. All the dragonesses craw trying to slurp up the cum coming out of their dragon lord

“this is one of the reasons why reasons I’ll never regret having a harem.”

Green size F tits press against the dragon lord’s chest. “While the rest are busy with the first course, I want the second all to myself.” Fluorspar whispered, then processed to kiss Fimbulwinter hungrily.

The mist roles over the two dragons, fucking and 20 dragonesses licking the silks, floor, and ceiling to taste their lords cum.

The screen flashes, and a beautiful maiden in a silk nightgown appears at a desk with books strewn across. The maiden appears to be in thought, completely ignoring the fact that her gown was far too small for her chest to fit in. Her eyes were bright with a childlike gleam, though there was a maturity and seriousness to them that made others respect her.

"Hmm. I believe Affinity to Alchemy, Resistance to magic, and Everystallion would be the wiser choices. Our other options are a bit too big at the moment. We're still starting so anything that helps us blend in would be useful.

I suggest we prioritize on Spike and the Apple family at the moment. We've already started on Spike so it's easier to finish him now than later. Also Zexis, be very, very careful about Applejack. Anything you tell her should be the full truth or mostly true. You may be confident in your ability to lie, but she will see straight through all of that in a heartbeat so don't try anything funny."

The maiden went back to her reading, still not reacting to the straining of the fabric or the cool breeze under the desk as the screen went black.

At the Friendship Castle

"So, I assume everything is alright now?" Zexis stood before the castle with Spike, while both of them ate their lunch. In Zexis´ case it was light sandwich, while Spike munched on some rubies. The little dragon had grown a little bit, since yesterday, reaching over Zexis hips now and his spine-spikes seemed a littel sharper, but it was not a huge change.

"Well...no, obviously.", answered Spike, "We haven´t resolved anything yet, but at least we are not at one another. So, thats something."

"Did she say anything about....your...growth?"

"What? Oh, that?" Spike looked down on himself as if he were seeing his body for the first time. Than he shrugged his shoulders. "Nah, she was worried at first, but I told her i´m fine." He threw another ruby into his mouth and crunched him between his teeth. "Besides, it´s my body. I didn´t say anything about her changes, when she became an alicorn, so she should zip it as well, for all I care."

His speech had clearly became more crude. Or better said, less restrained. Even though the Hormone Pills hadn´t worked as expected, they had removed some of Spikes reservations, when it came about his feelings. And he certainly became more aggressive. Not that Zexis minded, as this only meant progress for his plan to make Spike into an ally.

Still, he should play it safe for now, as not to arise too much suspiscion. "Wait, Princess Twilight had something similar? What kind of changes?", he asked and changed the subject. He smiled a little bit conspiratorially, as he lowered his voice. "As in changes in size?" He raised his hands, as if he were fondling some imaginary breasts.

Spike looked over his shoulder, before smiling back. "Well, from my humble estimates I would say....from B to D, at least." He snickered. "She also grew a little, though I doubt she will get much bigger than Cadence, probably smaller. Still, from a sexy bookworm to a sexy supermodel. One could call that quite a change."

Zexis sighed. "Well, if it were just that easy for everybody."

Spike punched him playfully in the shoulder, or at least tried, before settling for his lower arm. "Don´t be like that. You´re not that ugly yourself. I know that a bunch of stallion who would kill for your looks." He stroked his chin and looked at Zexis critically. "Although you should change your clothes to play that better off. Maybe a thinner shirt, for the muscles?"

"Wow, Spike the fashion advisor!", laughed Zexis, "You sure you didn´t get the wrong job? Maybe you should ditch Twilight and help Rarity instead. I´m sure you fare better there."

Spikes expression fell. "No, I wouldn´t. I tried the last few years, and it didn´t bring me any good." He chomped on another ruby, now with mor fervor. "Besides I wont give up my position as Number One Assistant so easily to Starlight. No matter how stupid Twilight behaves currently."

Zexis realized he had pushed too far and raised his hands. "Allright, got it. Sorry, if I pushed a sore spot there.", he apologized.

Spike just shrugged his shoulders. "It´s okay. Honestly, it´s just nice to have a talk like that. You won´t believe how hard it is, to keep all that for myself. Sometimes I feel like I would burst any minute.", he grumbled and scratched his spikes.

Zexis nodded. "I feel you. Thats why its important to have a guy-talk every now and then. There are just some things mares will never understand."

Spike looked at him and smiled thankful. "You´re probably right." Then he remembered something. "Anyway, why did want to talk to me again?"

"Just wanted to check on you.", said Zexis, "And I wanted you to check on something. I sadly don´t have the time for it today, so I would appreciate it, if you would help me with this." He pulled out a note out of his pockets and gave it to the little dragon.

Spike quickly read it. "Some books, huh? Why do you need something about Cutie Marks?"

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. "I still know too little about equestrian culture and Cutie Marks play a huge role in it. And its a touchy subject for many, so a book is not going to give me too many complaints about privacy. Think you can manage that for me?"

"Sure, no problem." Spike scratched his head. "Although this one..." He pointed at the book at the bottom of the list. "Advanced Alchemy..." He hesitated.

"Is that going to be a problem?", asked Zexis.

Spike kept a silent for a moment, before clicking his tongue and muttering: "Ah, fuck it..." Then he pocketed the note. "No, don´t think so. Just come by tomorrow morning. I will wait here. Just make sure that you are alone." With that he swallowed the last of his ruby and licked his lips. Then he stood up. "Anyway, was nice talking with you Zexis. Have a nice day and we see each other tomorrow, okay?"

Zexis nodded and stood up as well. "You bet. Keep your head straight and don´t let yourself be beaten down by any dumb princesses."

"Will do.", said Spike and headed back into the castle.

Zexis on the other hand walked towards a certain farm, where certain other dumb mare awaited him...

At Sweet Apple Acres

"Yaaahh!" With a loud outcry did the hoof connect to the bark. The force made the tree shake a little bit, before a half dozen apples fell down. Zexis took a step back, panting, as his shirt clinged to his sweat covered body. This Apple-Bucking was a lot harder than he expected. He doubted that anypony, who hadn´t some serious strength in his legs, could even attempt shouldering this kind of work. Thankfully, he wasn´t anypony.

He looked over to Applejack. She had already finished her part of the orchard and now stood with four basket full with apples and looked at him with an amused smile. "Not so easy, ain´t it?", she said a little smug. She herself was sweaty too, which, Zexis admitted, made her look even better. He could see her work-shirt clinging to her body. The shine of her wet muscles. Her visible six-pack and the outline of her supple breast. C-cup, he guessed.

But he didn´t linger his gaze too long, as Applejack would most certainly notice that. Instead he wiped his sweat from his forehead and nodded in affirmation. "True that. Now I know, why Big Mac is so jacked.", he said, while readying himself for another try.

Applejack shook her head. "Naw, Big Mac doesn´t buck, no more. He is doing transportation and repairs most of the time. Only have him jump in when we have high season."

"Hah!" Zexis kicked out again. This time he aimed for a higher spot. Unfortunately ist resulted in even less force and not one of the remaining apples fell. "Damn it!", he cursed.

Applejack clicked her tongue disapprovingly, both at the result and the curse. Then she looked the horizon, where the sun was about to set and sighed. "Well, can´t be helped. Come on, pack up. We are done for today." She took her four baskets and propped them on her shoulders like it was nothing it walked towards the barn. Zexis took his own two and followed her.

While they walked, he decided to ask some questions. "Why do you do that yourself? I mean, if I hadn´t voluntered for that, you would worked alone. Isn´t that too much for one mare?"

Applejack threw him an angry look. "You think I can´t handle that, eh?", she snarled.

Zexis swallowed and paddled back immediatly. "Sorry, didn´t mean it that way. I just...not that you are weak, or anything..." He tried to think of something, that wouldn´t tick Applejack off, but still sounded like a truth. "It´s just such...a huge orchard. I never seen anything like it, so I dont know how you manage it."

The mare mustered him for a few seconds, before finally answering: "Well...guess that makes sense. They don´t have big farms like this Zebrica, I recon´?" She didn´t expected an answer and instead continued on in silence.

Then, as Zexis already began to believ he wouldn´t get an answer, she opened her mouth again. "It´s difficult, I admit. But I handle it. I´m the head off the family after all, now. So it only makes sense, that I do most of the work. And if I manage that, than will get back on our hooves." She stopped short. Then she snorted and increased her pace. "Thats all."

Zexis nodded and followed her, but his thoughts were racing. So Applejack felt like she had shoulder this burden by herself. Was it her sense of responsibility that drove her to that? Or was it her believe, that she was in charge now. He had the feeling it was little bit off both. And that the latter one, was the reason why she was against help. From what he saw off her, she hated being seen as weak. Prideful mare.

They were almost at the barn. Zexis could see Big Mac putting some crates away. He remembered the hidden anger of the stallion. A grin parted his lips. That was something he could work with...

New Recipe

Lust Trinket: One of the lowest form of enchanments. Barely even magical, this talisman relies more faith in its abilities and associated emotion, than actual power. It has its uses as an easy to hide object, that induce a gradual accumulation of lust in the targets body, that only grows stronger with passing time and proximity. While it is rather mundane and there are multiple stronger alternatives, such aphrodisiacs, this trinket serves as subtle tool for corruption and is a good starting point for further studies in the field of enchantments.

Author's Note

And here we have next chapter.

There was a lot of activity in the Interlude. I enjoyed reading the comments immensly. :twilightsmile:
In the end I decided, simply to count all votes down and take the most popular options. At the end, it came down to a tie for the last trait and I decided to give that to Libido, so that people who voted for that didn´t feel left out. I think that gave a good balance. Thats how we have come out with current setting, in case anyone is wondering.

Considering Sweet Apple Acres, Zexis is now able to work the minimum needed to have some influence on the Apple Family. Of course, if you want to be more effective, you should probably get Zexis to be stronger at the next Interlude. But don´t worry, his strength is currently enough to carry him through the day with Applejack. Everystallion also helps with that.

I fully intend on making Applejack a long term project. I feel like the Elements deserve to be difficult to corrupt and therefore expect far more difficulties if you aim for them directly. The mid-level bosses, each and every one of them.

I will also update the EXTRA-chapter, so you know where we stand.

Other than that keep planning and I hope you enjoyed this chapter. :pinkiehappy:

Little Triumph - Part 1

The mist rolls back, revealing a beautiful emerald green dragoness, with grass green breast and inner thigh scales. On her face is a smile as she picks up a saphire and munches it in her mouth.
"Zelix, I look forward with helping you with your progress in corrupting Ponyville, while my Lord Fimbulwinter is busy with corrupting the dragons in some Monastery somewhere. I'm glad you are a smart stallion. Your projects right now seem to be going well. Spike's confidence in you is growing. Remember to read those books carefully and quickly. Apparently Spike needs them back by morning, so if you want his confidence in you to continue to grow, you better bring them back. May I suggest you give him one of those lust trinkets as well. I'm not sure how, but that may help speed along his corruption."
"As for Scootaloo, great idea. To be honest, I have never into fat dragons, so having Birdhoof run with Scootaloo makes me, happy. Also he deserves to suffer a bit still. I personally don't like it when my toys misbehaves, so Birdhoof needs to be punished. And it seems like this will help Scootaloo to trust you more Zelix. a win win in my opinion. The only draw back is it will need a few weeks before this comes to Rainbow Dash's attention. I swear that mare doesn't know anything about sublimity, she has the dramatic flare down though.'
"I do feel sorry for that poor mare AppleJack. She is too stressed, she needs to be fucked and soon. That's what I do. It seems like she has a brother who would be willing to help. Hmmm.... I think she is just too." she waves her claws in though. "Responsible, to be honest I think some dominating sex, with her brother on top would help her. Help relax because she has to realize she isn't in control of everything. I do think, you should visit them often. Afterall we are corrupting an element of harmony, that project is going to take time and patience. Something that most men don't have, if most of your sexual performances have any say in that. So have patience and fuck your own harem while you wait, I promise you, when she breaks it will be worth the wait."
"I do have another idea. Its with those trinkets. Its a gamble, but use your teaching job with them. Afterall, what child wouldn't want to give a lovely heart shape trinket to their parents. Maybe, if it won't affect the enchantment, simply bring them to the school and ask the children to paint them, and give one to their mommy and one to their daddy. The paint should help hide them from ponies who might recognize them, like Zecora or Twilght. If that doesn't work, i suggest you corrupt a construction pony, mare or stallion, and have them put them in the homes ponies who they do repair work on."
Fluorspar gets up from her seat on the silk and gem pillows. "I think these trinkets will help you greatly Zelix. Lord Fimbulwinter has lots of them, and each one of those gems give off a different emotion. Anger, fear, Lust, even sadness. Its been a very useful tool. Controlling a dragon's emotions, leads to control on how a dragon reacts."
Clapping her claws, the door opens up to reveal a strong muscular black dragon, with grey chest scales. He has a blue pendant around his neck, and a gold belt with a blue gem, but nothing is under it, so the dragon's massive dick and firm ass is on full display. "Captain Obsidian, how are you?"
"I am fine, Oracle slut Fluorspar. Why have you called me here. Is it for another fuck session?" The dragon asks exasperatingly.
"No, I know you are busy, so this shouldn't take long. I have an idea on how we can spy on Permafrost and his conspirators." The captain's eyes quirk at her statement.
"Why would you want to consult with me on that?"
"Because, I trust you. If my plan is to work, I will need your assistance. I'll explain it quickly, and then you head home early." The black dragon's eyes rise at that statement.
"Don't look so surprise Captain. I already have figured out that you and your wife's egg is getting close to hatching. You must be dying to rush out and see the little hatching." The captain's eye ridges rise indicating the surprise he feels at Fluorspars knowledge of his family.
"Anyway, my plan is...."
The mist rolls back in muffling the sounds of the two conversing dragons.

Interesting little toys you created, Zexis. Not quite as powerful as what I usually deal with... but they serve their purpose for now. As does your idea for Scootaloo and Birdhoof.

Make sure, however, that Scootaloo doesn't decide she should generally be in charge. You've seen her inner workings, she's a masochist slut at core. Make sure Birdhoof will eventually be compensated, he has been loyal to you so far, even before you cemented it with your magics. A little fitness won't hurt, and you can even take the opportunity to train him in combat skills when he is ready. An ally, is an ally, no matter how smol.

While we are on small things... >> SageBrony07 Fluorspar's idea has some potential. Who wouldn't enjoy a trinket brought home by their kids? Arts and crafts will surely make for a good cover, if they can be tinkered with and still be effective. As ponies are a prude bunch, they will surely not freely share their budding sexual desires with their neighbours, shielding you further!

That, coupled with the idea of enslaving Cheerilee and using her to pull out lone students for you to corrupt, makes the schoolhouse a prime target for you, Zexis. I've witnessed more than one siege end this way...

Shelve Applejack for now. I know you would rather box her and pull her out like the toy she should be, but you're not there yet. You made a better impression. Good. Concentrate on the ponies with weaker wills.

Once you have the time and the books, see if there is anything about an antidote to your suggestion powder. Unlikely there is something to reverse the effect, but there might be a sort of vaccine, if you will. You need to know this. Trying to bring anypony under while they are protected would be disastrous. See if there are ways to circumvent such protection.

And Zexis, look into creating a few tools and weapons. You remember the spanking rod I mentioned? Look into that. Also, you remember some of the shamans using blowguns to bring down powerful prey for live capture. The Zebra tribes sometimes went to hunt beasts of burden, exotic and dangerous females to enslave, and rarely, creatures to breed your Zebra mares with. Equestria is full of magical timber for the gun and darts. Your Flower sluts will help you with that.

See that your conquest goes well. We do not enjoy failure.

Well you literally fucked Roseluck's brains out. And honestly? Whatever. No way to fix it at this time, so lets focus on expanding your influence instead. Hopefully the rest of the Trio can cover for her for now.
My advice? Go after that nice school teacher pussy. That's a mare you can already influence and it gives you access to lots of other mares as well. The trinket idea via arts and crafts is a good one as well.
Beyond that? Let's work some more on Redheart. Get her to pass out some lust charms as well, and finish breaking her in.
And finally, start preparing for Zecora. I think it's inevitable the two of you are going to fight. Anti-alchemy techniques, and expanding your own alchemy tricks is your best bet against her.

Ponyville Plaza

It was a bright summer morning and the Ponyville Plaza was bursting with activity. Ponies walked around, shopping, talking and generally having a wonderful time. In fact, it seemed like the air was filled with anticipation and harmony. One could see a blue unicorn stallion going into a jewelry store, a mother directing her children to a party supplier and a pair of mares, one mint-green and the other with a blue-pink mane, hanging up bells, banners and other decorations.

Zexis sat in a quiet secluded corner and drank his morning coffee. He was waiting for Birdhoof. His minion was supposed to update him on his various sideprojects today. Zexis had been busy the last four days, and as such had not the opportunity to watch the fruit of his labours. Thankfully Birdhoof was able to keep his eyes on certain "developments" and inform him. If he would finally come, that is...

The zebra watched with amusement and hidden lust, as the two mares finished their work and bumped their butts together in what seemed like a secret "hand"-shake. That they gave him quiet a nice view on their hips wasn´t probably intended. Especially the green unicorn looked nice, with her slim waist and wild hair. Although her friend didn´t look too bad either.

He was interrupted in his observations, by wheezing cough to his side. He turned his head and saw Birdhoof, crashing down on the free chair beside the table. The stallion was dripping with sweat, his shirt clinging to his wet torso, revealing his unflattering figure. Although, Zexis had to admit, he started to lose weight noticeably. It wasn´t much, but the training with Scootaloo definitely showed results.

"You are late."

Birdhoof opened his mouth to answer, but only got out another hacking cough. He wised up and first tried to regain his breath, before he spoke. "I....am sorry...Scoots doubled her...speed today. Was hard...to keep up...", he managed to get out, before he collapsed again.

Zexis pulled out a waterbottle, he had prepared and gave it to Birdhoof. The unicorn thanked him silent, opened the bottle and chugged down its content greedily. "Did you stare at her butt again?", asked Zexis, knowing the answer already.

Birdhoof finally recovered enough, to grin sheepishly and, at least, a little bit ashamed. "Yes, although its hard not to." He emptied th bottle and put it down on the table. "That, and she wanted make up for yesterday."

"What happened?"

"Oh, well...", now Birdhoofs grin grew slightly and took a more evil tone, "She overslept because of some nightmares." His look to Zexis made it clear what he was talking about.

The zebra just nodded staisfied. The Lust Trinkets had finally done their job. Scootaloos libido had risen enough, to influence her sleep. Given her past, any association with sex was probably painful, so that would explain her nightmares. Which meant he could finally execute the next step on his plan. On that Birdhoof was very keen on, if he guessed his intentions right.

"Alright, then I come over tonight. It´s time for her therapy."

Hearing that, Birdhoof let out a small giggle, that made him sound like a small schoolfilly just hearing some juicy rumours. Zexis decided to get things away from Scootaloo, as there were still some other things he wanted to hear about. "And the other projects?"

Birdhoof blinked in confusion for moment, before finally getting back on track. "Oh, yes, of course." He wiped some sweat of his forehead. "The other rooms have been prepped with trinkets as well, they should show their effects in a few days. I also put in some of your pills in Scoots glass in the bathroom, so she should ingest them, when she is brushing her teeth. Also, Redheart has been trained as well, you can lay the finishing touches whenever you like."

Zexis nodded satisfied. A smile touched his lips. Finally everything had payed off. He looked at Birdhoof. "Seems like you did a good job. I think nothing stands now between you and your rewards tonight.", he said.

These words brought a beaming grin over the face of his minion and the fat stallion clapped his hands together in excitement. "Ooooooh, I can´t wait! I´ve never been so excited!!"

While he relished in his plans for corrupting Scootaloo, Zexis stood up. "Where are you going?", asked Birdhoof.

"To the school. Have a class, today. I also need to speak with Cheerilee about some things.", Zexis answered.

Birdhoof nodded. The he grinned again, licking his lips. "Does that mean, we start playing the fillies there too? Because I have some great ideas concerning their education." His face took on a predatory look.

Once again Zexis saw himself remined, that no matter what happened, Birdhoof was still and would always be a creep. But that was fine...as long as he remained useful. "That depends on how you do tonight. If you perform to my expectations, I will consider some of your ideas."

Birdhoof nodded at that and one could see that he could barely wait. Zexis shook his head in his thoughts. Then he turned around and walked away. He had a job to do...

"Good morning, children.", said Zexis.

"Good morning, Mr. Chikelu!", answered the chorus of the fillies and colts, that filled the classroom.

While going down the attendance list, Zexis eyes wandered through the classroom. He had some time to gather a little bit of information about the various fillies that visited his class. Birdhoof had helped with most of them, though. Aside from the Cutie Mark Crusaders, the most noticeable ones were Diamond Tiara, her friend Silver Spoon, as well Pipsqueak and Rumble.

The former formed the schools alpha-bitch team. They were at the top of the social ladder, and it showed. Diamond Tiara looked true to her name. Only wearing the finest clothes and never without the accessoir, that gave her the corresponding cutie mark and name. Thanks to being the daughter of Filthy Rich, she enjoyed the lifestyle of a girl, that never had to work hard for anything in her entire life. Although the rumors suggested that she had a fallout with her family and especially her mother, Spoiled Rich.

Silver Spoon was always at her side and the typical yes-neigher, agreeing with almost everything Tiara said, in hopes of leeching off some of the popularity and power her friend possessed. And it worked quite well, mostly because Silver Spoons parents were close financial partners to the Rich family.

Both of them not only looked rich, but were also blessed with the beauty to support it. More Diamond Tiara, than Silver Spoon, if he had to be honest. But it was a synthetic beauty, one born partially by make-up and diets. In Zexis opinion it couldn´t compare to the likes of Sweetie Belle, who sparkled with style and glamour, without having to put a ring on every finger or having to mask herself with powder. That in particular led to Diamond Tiara trying to outdo her classmate, putting on quite daring - for equestrian standards - dresses, which showed her shoulders or ended over her knees and Silver Spoon joined her, of course. And while that made them popular under the boys, it still couldn´t measure up to the support the CMCs had.

Zexis eyes went over to Pipsqueak and Rumble. They were a pair of a different dynamic than the girls. Pipsqueak was a well-meaning colt, with a big heart, that stood in crass comparison to his small stature. He was well liked for his patience and willingness to listen to problems others might have. It was one of the reasons he was elected as president of the student council three time in a row now. Unfortunately he lacked in spine and couldn´t bring himself to actually disagree with somepony, which made him a little ineffectual against the more dominant member of the board, who regulary decided over his head.

His friend Rumble however was the complete opposite. Having an ego bigger than the schoolbuilding, he lacked the friends Pip had. However, he was good in sports, possessed his older brother Thunderlanes looks and was confident beyond reason. A troublemaker, straight out of the book. The main reason he stayed with Pip was because this way he had access to the girls in the class, and Zexis had heard about his many ill-fated attempts at flirting. It had earned him quite a lot of detentions.
Still, Pip looked up to him. Mainly because Rumble was one of the few got his back on the school-board and because Pip probably wanted some of that confindence the pegasus-colt oozed.

Zexis finished the attendance list and everypony sat down. It was time to begin the lesson.

"Today we are going to talk about a particular branch of alchemy, that you haven´t done much, yet. Does somepony want to take a guess?", he asked.

There was silence in the room, before Appleblooms hand rose up. "Is it enchantments, sir?"

Zexis nodded in affirmation. "Correct! Not bad, Applebloom. You´re sure, you didn´t glance into my notes before the class?" There was some giggling at that. "But then again, I hadn´t expected anything less from our little Alchemy-Apprentice." Applebloom beamed at that compliment.

"Now, many of you are probably wondering what enchanments have to do with alchemy. After all, if you payed attention in the arcana-class you might know, that this particular field of study also pops up in magic theory." Zexis turned to the chalkboard and began to draw a pentagram, the sign of magic, on the left side and a triangle with a circle in it, the sign of alchemy, on the right side.

"Can somepony tell me what might be difference between arcane enchantments..." He tipped on the pentagram. "And alchemical enchantments?" His finger wandered to the triangle.

Again there was silence and again Appleblooms hand rose up. Zexis shook his head. "I know, you know the answer, Applebloom, but I want the others to participate as well.", he said, before pointing at a filly at the back. "Yes, Dinky. Can you guess what it is."

The little blond unicorn shrank for on her chair for moment. She clearly had hoped not to be picked. Her hand nervously ran through her blond hair, before she answered: "Is it...time?"

"Specify that."

"Something like....uhm....duration, I think. I believe alchemical enchantments last longer than arcane ones.", she said, quite unsure if she was right. To her relief Zexis nodded.

"Quite right. Can you tell, how you came to that conclusion?"

Dinky looked to the side, thinking back. Again she ran her little hand through her hair in a manner, that was as nevous as it was adorable. "Well, I just noticed that Zecoras pumpkins glow longer on Nightmare Night, than the ones made by Princess Twilight. And Zecora is an alchemist, so thats why..."

"A good answer! Well done.", said Zexis and saw with delight how Dinky turned a deeper shade of violet at his words. Clearly his charm worked. He wrote "Duration" as a plus under alchemy. Then he turned back to the class. "But that alone is not enough. If achemical enchantments last longer, than their arcane counterparts, than why do we not not use them more? Clearly they are superior, are they not?"

Again he looked at the fillies and colts for an answer. His eyes wandered over their head, before resting on Diamond Tiara. The filly was clearly absent, looking outside the window and sitting lazily behind her desk.

"Diamond Tiara, do you know the answer?"

That got her out of daydream. For moment she blinked, clearly trying to remember what she had missed, before looking at the chalkboard. She huffed in annoyance at being called out. "I don´t know....because it´s too expensive?", she answered, not bothering to think too hard on the question. "Or it´s too complicated."

Zexis shook his head. "Not quite right. Please pay more attention, okay?", he said, ignoring her murmered "whatever" and pointing at Rumbles raised hand. "Yes?"

"It´s power.", said the colt confident, "Arcane enchantments have a stronger effect, when they are used. They can be almost up to fifty percent stronger than their alchemical counterpart."

Zexis knocked approvingly on his desk. "That´s right. Very good, Rumble." The colt grinned proud, as the entire class murmured in little awe at his knowledge. Then, however, Zexis added: "Of course, it would have been more impressive, if haven´t read it from Pips notes. So I think the praise should go to him. Speak up next time, Pip. Okay?"

Almost immediatly Rumbles ears fell flat and his face turned beet-red from embarrassment. Pip flinched as well, having got caught giving his buddy the answer. He couldn´t however hide a little smile at his teachers acknowledgement.

Zexis on the other hand turned back to the chalkboard and wrote "Power" under the pentagramm. "There is of course a third factor, that makes a difference between these two methods. Its also the reason why arcane enchantments are more popular in Equestria, than alchemy." He looked at the class, before pointing at the clock over the door. "And that is time. Not duration, as Dinky said, but preparation-time. It is faster to cast a spell to enchant something, then having to go through the lenghty process that alchemy requires. Especially if you are a unicorn."

He added "Preparation" as a second plus under magic. While he wrote, he heard Diamond Tiara whispering to Silver Spoon: "Than why are we learning this...trash? Magic is better, or not?"

"Could you please repeat that question, Diamond Tiara?", asked Zexis loud.

The filly let out a little "Eep!" at having been heard. Then she composed herself and put on a haughty look on her face. "I was just wondering, why we are bothering with alchemical enchantments, if the arcane ones are so much better." She looked around the class, searching for support. An arrogant smile crept up her lips. "Mom-I mean, I heard somepony say, that things that are obsolete are inevitably discarded by society. And this...alchemy enchantment...looks like, it is something like that."

Zexis face didn´t betray any emotions, though in his mind he was more than just a little angry. He suspected that these were just Tiaras preconceived notions speaking here and that she wasn´t aware, who she insulted with that. But still, it made his blood boil. Too glad he would have liked to grab her right here and now, rip down that skirt and spank her little ass, until she cried for mercy.

But he kept this anger to himself. Emotional outburst would only hurt his authority and patience was of more importance, than his ego. Instead he looked over to Applebloom, who did a much poorer job at hiding her emotions. She saw his gaze and raised her hands, with a look of stubborn defiance. Zexis nodded. "I think, Applebloom is so kind, as to provide you with an answer."

"While it is true, that arcane enchantments are easier to produce and more powerful, their limited duration is their biggest weakness. And duration is the most important aspect of enchanments. After all, you are making them to store magic in the first place. So a long lasting enchanment is much more useful in the long run, than a powerful, short one. Add to that, that you can continue working on an alchemical enchantment, refining it or adding more functions, while an arcane one is fixed after you cast it and you come to the conclusion, that alchemy is in fact more suited for enchanting purposes than magic." Applebloom breathed hard, after that lenghty monologue. The whole classroom was quiet, and Diamond Tiara especially looked a little bit shocked, that the country-bumpkin just made such a presentation.

This silence was interrupted by a slow clap by Zexis. "Zecora´s pupil indeed. I couldn´t have said it better myself. Consider this as your answer, Diamond Tiara." He smiled approvingly at Applebloom, who calmed down a little bit and returned his smile with a proud grin.

Zexis then knocked on his desk, to get the attention of the class back. "Now, on the five basic rules of alchemical enchantments..."

The bell rang and even before it stopped, the fillies and colts began to spring up from their desk and hurry out of the classroom, as fast as they could. Scootaloo was the last one, still rubbing her eyes and yawning. Zexis could see Diamond Tiara stomping out of the building, no doubt still angry at her embarrasment from earlier. Applebloom on the other hand waved her hand at Zexis, before she ran off with her friends. Zexis smiled warmly, basking in his anticipation of the day, where she would show him more intimate signs of affection.

"That was a very good lesson."

Zexis turned around at the sound of that voice and saw Mrs. Cheerilee entering the room. She wore a long skirt today and a red blouse. She gestured towards the fillies and colts, who were playing outside. "I am pleasantly suprised how you handle our children, Mr. Chikelu.", she said, with a warm motherly smile.

Zexis scratched his cheek sheepishly at that compliment. "Thank you. I put a lot of effort into this, so I am glad it pays off. Though I think, not everyone appreciates my lessons.", he said, hinting at Tiaras dislike of his class.

Mrs.Cheerilee sighed. "Well, that is unavoidable. I would like to say, she is not usually this difficult, but I am afraid that would be a lie. However, she is living under some difficult circumstances. Her mother is very...strict person."

Zexis nodded at that. Then he got an idea and pulled something out of his bag. "Just a proposal: Do you have time for a cup of tea? I just got my hands on some leaves from my homeland. I thought a sophisticated mare like you would like it."

These words earned him a scolding look. "Mr. Chikelu, if I wouldn´t know any better, I would think you´re flirting with me. Surely you´re not that crude."

The tone made clear, that he might have been too bold, but Zexis just put on a disarming smile and continued. "I would never dream of it. I simply want to thank you for this job. With this and the work on Sweet Apple Acres, I might be able to puchrase my own home in just two weeks. I thought I could celebrate that.", he said, playing the honest to good stallion. He even put on a slight guilty look. "Of course, I am sorry, if I offended you..."

"No, not at all.", said Mrs. Cheerilee hasty, blushing a little bit. "I should apologize. It was rude of me to assume your intentions were dishonest. Especially because you have been nothing but helpful."

She looked at the clock, before finally taking a deep breath. "I suppose we got time for a cup or two.", she said, smiling a little bit. "Though, I hope this tea is as good as you say."

With blank eyes stared the schoolteacher in the air, her tea cup sitting forgotten on the table. Zexis couldn´t help but grin like mad, at seeing his creation work. He had spend the last few days refining his suggestion-powder. He had succeded through a distillation-process at making the powder more effective, and with a little bit of water he could now paint it over surfaces, like leaves or clothes. He had planned on using it for Scootaloo tonight, but wanted to test it´s effectivness first. He was not disappointed.

He licked his lips and cleared his throat. "Now then, Cheerilee - you are okay with me being informal, by the way - we both know that I am a good teacher, right?", he said.

Mrs. Cheerilee took two seconds, before nodding. "Yes, you...are, Mr. Chikelu."

The zebra grin got even wider. The suggestion had taken hold almost immediatly. Sure, it was a small one, but it was still an enormous improvement over the small baby-steps he had to perform with the first version. Time to test how far he could go. "You think, that I deserve a reward for my help here."

Again, a nod.

"In fact, not only do you think that I am dependable, but quite attractive as well. You are drawn to me, and you are delighted by my compliments and flirting."

This time it took a while, before she hesitantly agreed. It showed Zexis, that there were some limits still, but it was still beyond his expectations. It should be possible to enact the next step for his plan, now. "You will get the idea of a private after-school class for the colts in alchemy. It will be mandatory and headed by me. You will defend this decision, if anypony ask, by citing their poor grades and the prospect of further socialization."

He needed to repeat that last one, mostly because of its complexity. But after a while, it took hold in her mind as well.

Then Zexis added his last and most daring suggestion. "You secretly fantasize about being taken and dominated by me. It is just a little dream, a slight crush. But the thought of me taking you, makes you wet."

"No...no...I-I...." Her distate was written clearly on her face. She withstood that one. It seems, that this was still outside her imagination. Still, Zexis wasn´t sad. It just meant he needed to put some preparations in her mind first. "Okay, forget that. Instead you liked the tea very much and you will agree on having a regular tea-time with me."

This time she nodded eagerly and Zexis suppressed a laugh, knowing she was already as good as under his control...

Night, at the Orphange

"So, it worked."

"Like an oiled clockwork. We will have no problems." Zexis smiled triumphantly, waving the little bag with the suggestion powder in his fingertips.

They were outside Scootaloos room. It was almost midnight and the whole town was asleep. It was quiet, except the room before them. Zexis could hear the little pegasus moaning and shifting in her bed. She seemed to have rough dreams, because of the Lust Trinket.

"You made sure she drank the water?"

Birdhoof nodded. "She did. The pills are probably having an effect right about now." The plan had been to induce a state of lust in Scootaloo and then have her swallow some hormone pills, in order to fixate her arousal and make her more susceptible to any mental changes. Now, it was time for the last step.

Birdhoof layed his hand on the doorknob. "And I can make some suggestions as well?", he asked.

Zexis nodded. "After I am finished. Just don´t overdo it and make sure not to do anything that would compromise her daily life."

The unicorn nodded at that. Then he opened the door.

Scootaloo´s room was dark. Zexis carefully put on the lights, making sure not to wake the sleeping pegasus. They were greeted with quite a sight.

Scootaloo layed in her bed, her blanket thrown from her. Her pyjamas were drenched in sweat and in her tossing and turning, her shirt had moved up, revealing her flat stomach and small, perky breasts. Her pants were soaked between her thighs and she had one hand absentmindendly stroaking her puffy pussylips. Her face was scrunched up in a mixture of lust, pain and disgust. Whatever she was dreaming, it aroused and squicked her in equal measure.

Birdhoofs face was torn between desire and anger. The desire to finally take that defiant filly and break her into his little fuckdoll. And anger at having to wait for such a long time, to finally get his chance.

Theys positioned themselves to both sides of the bed. Zexis looked his companion in the eyes. He nodded.

Birdhoof lunged downward, grabbing Scootaloo at her arms and legs, making sure, she could not move. The filly awoke immediately and upon seeing the two stallions, and especially Birdhoof with his manic expression, opened her mouth to scream.

Zexis reacted quickly. His hand closed over her muzzle and pressed her lips shut. Scootaloo scream was muffled into a helpless groan. She bucked and threw her body with all her strength, but Birdhoofs grip was tight and his weight pressed her down on her bed, unable to move. In the end, she was just a filly. And they were two grown stallions, determined and ruthless.

Zexis pulled out the suggestion-powder and ripped open the bag. He then signaled Birdhoof, who forced Scootaloos arms under his belly, securing them under his body and took his right arm, who was now free, and grabbed the pegasus´chin. Zexis eased his grip on her muzzle and together, they forced her mouth open. Zexis took the bag and emptied its entire content in Scootaloos mouth.

The pegasus-filly tried to cough and spit out the drug, but Zexis closed her muzzle again and covered her nose. Before too long, she was forced to swallow, to gain some oxygen. With triumph Zexis looked in her purple eyes, filled with tears and the pain of betrayal. Soon, the light faded from her iris and after a few seconds she stared blankly into the air.

The guys slowly loosened their grip over he body, unsure if she was faking. But after a few seconds, where she did not raise any attempts to flee or to move, Zexis knew that the powder had taken effect. She had taken in an unfiltered dosage, directly into her body. That, combined with her raised libido and lowered inhibtions, made her now completely open to any rewriting of her personality.

Birdhoof opened his mouth to say something, but Zexis raised his hand. He gave him a sharp look, reminding him who called the shots here. While the unicorn retreated, Zexis lowered his head to Scootaloos ear and began to talk: "I have to be honest with you, Scoots. You are a slut!"

A shiver went down Scootaloos body and she blinked. That was her only reaction to these words, yet Zexis knew that they had taken immediate effect. There were no barriers, no defenses left that could protect the fillies mind from him anymore. He could tell her, that she was a cow and she would believe it now.

"You always were a slut. Since your days in Manehattan, since you sold out your body to random strangers, you took pleasure in what you did. You lied to yourself, of course. Pretending like you were an honest girl, like your friends, but we both know that this is not true. All you attitude, all your anger. It was just a mask you wore, to hide the real you. The slut, the whore, who enjoyed being treated like fuckmeat. Who relished when a prick entered her little, tight pussy."

He came closer, almost touching her ear with his mouth. "Even now, you dream of those days. In the dirty alleys of the city. No lies there, no pretending. You were free to indulge in your desires. In these dirty, uncouth desires, that nopony will understand. Not your friends, not your teacher, not even Rainbow Dash.", he whispered.

A look down revealed, that Scootaloos pussy was now positively drenched in juices, as a big wet spot grew under her legs on the bed. Her breath quickened.

"You want this to change, you want to be free. To be the very thing, you were born for. To be a dirty, needy whoooree..." He drew the last word out, letting it hall in her mind. "You will never lie to me, Scootaloo. I am now the highest authority in your life. Higher, than your teacher, higher than Rainbow Dash, higher than the princesses. And you will follow my orders, wether you want to or not."

He stood up, looking down on the half naked filly. "Now tell me: What are you?"

"....a...whore..."

"What do you desire?"

"...to be free..."

"And who is your master?"

"Zexis Chikelu!"

The last one came out quick and in a strong voice, signaling the crumbling of her last defenses. Zexis could see a lone tear running down her cheek, which stood in stark contrast to her little vacant smile. He looked over to Birdhoof.

The stallion was sitting on a little chair, having a hand in his trousers, massaging without a doubt his raging boner. The caretaker looked up to him, his greed now open. The anticipation almost killed him now. Zexis sighed, then he nodded. He stepped aside to leave Scootaloo to her old tormentor.

Birdhoof didn´t waste any moments and jumped to Scoots side. His right hand was gripping his erection, while his left hand was now trailing over the little fillies body. His finger ran over her slick vagina, prodding carefully between her lips. "Yes, yes. Zexis is your master. yes....but I...I am...I am...." He faltered for a moment, clearly trying to phrase his thoughts, though the fog of lust made that difficult.

He violently shook his head. His eyes took on a determined look. He would not waste this opportunity. He cleared his throat, and began to speak, all the while slowly driving his fingers into Scootaloos wet pussy. "You did not admit it, but you liked the way I treated you. The spankings, the verbal abuse, the groping. This is the way you like it. To be treated not like a mare, but like an object.", he said, his confidence growing with every word, "You knew that I was right. That you were worthless and the punishment deserved. And you are eager for it now. Pain is pleasure, obedience mandatory. You are a masochistic bitch!"

Scootaloo moaned at the last sentence, arching her back, as Birdhoof added at second finger. "Yes....hit me...insult me. I...deserve it...", she mumbled deliriously.

Birdhoof panted for excitement. He leaned closer, taking a deep breath of Scootaloos sweaty musk, before sticking out his tongue and slowly licking her left cheek. He was rewarded with a squirt down in her netherregions.

"You want to tease me. To goad me into punishing you. Into fucking you. You are....my slave...." A third finger drove itself into Scootaloos pussy, and she was now moaning openly, using her hands to push them deeper. Still, she was under the influence of the drug, but Zexis could see its influence waning.

"Make it quick, Birdhoof. One suggestion, then we must stop.", he warned his minion.

The unicorn blinked, before frowning at the interruption. But he relented, pulling his fingers out of the fillies cunt, before slowly licking them clean. "But this will remain private. You know, nopony will accept this kind of behaviour, so you will try to behave normally in the open. Only when we are private and me or Zexis give the go-ahead you will indulge in your desires. Understood?"

It took a few seconds, before Scootaloo nodded. Zexis himself gave Birdhoof a thumbs up at his showing of restraint. Then he added: "Also, this is just a dream. You will wake up, believing this to be another nightmare and then going back to sleep. Dreaming about you past, just much more raunchier. Dreams befitting a dirty slut like you."

This way, there wouldn´t be any complications. He turned to Birdhoof and pointed at the door. The unicorn looked like he was seriously considering the option of just raping Scootaloo on the spot here and there. But a withering glare from Zexis made him relent and he followed him outside.

"Damn it, why can´t we fuck her now?", he asked, through clenched teeth.

Zexis put out the lights and closed the door, before he answered. "Because the suggestion need a while to be taking in completely. If we ravage her now, the shock will render our entire work worthless. Give her mind time to accept her new self. To make it permanent."

He saw the impatient look and Birdhoofs face. "Wait another day. I will come by tommorrow and then we will finish it. After that she will be yours, forever."

The unicorn looked at the door for a few seconds, before making a deep breath. "...Alright...", he finally said. He turned around and walked down the corridor towards his office. "I can barely wait..."

"Me too...", murmured Zexis.

Then, when Birdhoof was out of reach, he leaned towards the door and put an ear on it. He could hear it. The quiet moans and the wet slurping sound of a newborn slut, masturbating to a nightmare...

Author's Note

Damn, february was over faster than expected. Oh well, as recompensation I put in extra effort into todays chapter.

However thanks to some suggestion I needed to split the chapter. This means, that the second part will follow up this weekend. You are, of course, free to post your suggestions, but don´t be dissapointed if I do not take that many. I still need to work through the last batch and I can´t honestly do that with your preferred quality in one chapter. As such the rest of the suggestion, including Redheart and the Spa, will be taking into account in the next chapter, as well as the books from Spike,

It will also be very clop-heavy. So anticipate that, because I will conclude two questlines from the very beginning of the story.

Last, but not least, I am searching for a proofreader. My english is not the best and I´m still making mistakes and as such it would be a great help, if someone could look over my scripts and clean them up, before I put them online. Why should you take this offer? Because you will have a first read of every chapter, before the rest gets it. :raritywink:
Of course, it would be best, if have already experiences in that field. PM me, if you are interested.

Other than that, have fun. :twilightsmile:

Little Triumph - Part 2

Ponyville Hospital - The next day

Zexis strolled with barely held back anticipation to Ponyville Hospital. Since yesterday, he had been practically bursting with hidden glee at seeing his "projects" completed. It had taken quite some resolve to not immediately head to the Oprhanage and check on Scootaloo. But there were still some other things he wanted to check on first. Also, he knew that his chances at success in breaking the pegasus filly would be greater, if he let her stew in her own arousal for a while.

Because of this he had decided to check on his progress with Redheart. Birdhoof had spent the last few days, per Zexis instructions, training the nurse and corroding her will. Today was the day, where Zexis would lay down the finishing touches and ensure that the busty mare would finally become his slave. She would make a useful asset in corrupting the Hospital and, in extension, Ponyville. After all, who didn´t trust a doctor?

The lobby was empty, as usual. The residents of Ponyville enjoyed a rather healthy lifestyle, with few diseases and at most a few injuries from work. Curiously this seemed to be a rather recent development, coincidentally aligning with Twilight Sparkles arrival to town. Zexis had been curious as to why that happened, but he didn´t have the time to research that. It also wasn´t important, right now.

Behind the reception desk sat Redheart. She had changed quite significantly since Zexis saw her the last time. She now wore thick red lip-stick and heavy eyeshadow. Her hair was down, instead of its usual tight bun, flowing freely around her shoulders. She had painted her fingernails red and had them long. The greatest change, was her clothing however. Where before she had worn a shorter, but still conservative nurse uniform, this time she paraded around in what Zexis could only describe as fetishwear. Her shirt was shorter than ever, revealing her thighs and almost her buttom, with white stockings and a garterbelt, that vanished behind the fabric, drawing the eyes involuntarily towards her nether-regions. Her shirt was at least two sizes too short and with three buttons open, it seemed all that was left for her tits to pop out of her shirt was one wrong move from her part. All in all, it looked less like a nurse unifrom, and more like something you saw in a porn magazine.

Seeing that, Zexis had mixed feelings. One one hand, it was great to see how few of Redhearts inhibitions had remained and how effective Birdhoofs training had been. On the other hand, there was the problem that he had gone too far. Without a doubt this look would raise some questions and that was something Zexis wasn´t sure he could afford right now.

Seemed like it had been a good idea to come by today. The zebra put on his best smile, walked through the room and stopped at the desk. Redheart looked up at him. "Good morning, Redheart.", greeted Zexis her, "Are free, right now? Maybe up for a date?"

A few days ago, this question would have invited a cold stare and a biting remark, but now Redheart just smiled back. "Well, Dr. Needleheim had actually asked me to organize our patient files today..." She pointed at the paperwork on her desk. Then she grinned and flipped the documents from the table. "But fuck that! A stud like you is far more important.", she said sultry. She stood up, put her butt on the desk, before sliding over it towards Zexis. "What do you have in mind for us both?"

Zexis swallowed. Damn, what a turnover! He really needed to do something. Such a crass change in personality was bound to throw people off. But what to do? Reverting the change would take time and he wasn´t sure if it would even be effective. Which meant he needed to accelerate his plans.

He looked at Redheart and said: "I want a close check-up from you, slut-bitch!"

The phrase worked immediatly. Redhearts eyes glazed over, then she blinked and got off from the table. Her hand brushed "accidentally" over Zexis junk, before she turned away. "Well, I guess I should get us a private room then..." Then she walked towards the door with swaying hips. Zexis followed her with a mixture of happy anticipation and worry.

Zexis closed and locked the door behind him. He then turned around to see Redheart rolling down the window-shutters, before she then walked towards the examination table and leaned against it, pushing her chest out and giving him a lustful look. "So, how do you wanna do this, Zexis? One, two or three holes? Bottom, top? I am up for anything, as long as you take a condom." She waved at the staple of rubber to the side, she had taken out.

Zexis looked at her. He weighed his options. "At first tell me, what you want to do. And what did Birdhoof tell you to do." If the training had been carried out correctly, Redheart would be compelled to answer any question truthfully.

The nurse pouted a little bit, that he didn´t get to business immediately, but complied. "At first it was orders. You know, like: Suck me off! Strip! Tell me, that you love me!" She chuckled at the last one.

So she didn´t lose all of her personality, noted Zexis. It just seemed, as if she had become less "restrained".

Redheart continued. "But eventually I didn´t need to be ordered. I liked getting fucked or sucking off. Sure, cum is not that tasty, but to be able to help my patients in such a way. It was exhilerating!" She parted her legs and gave Zexis full view on her wet panties. "I have yet to try it on them, but I am sure the results will be great."

Zexis nodded. So the use of her desire to help others had proven to be the right decision. "So, you do that just for your job? For your patients? What do you really think?"

Redheart hesitated for a moment. She closed her mouth, so as not to speak, but her programming eventually won out over her shame. "Do be honest...I think...I", she closed her eyes. Then when she opened then again a cruel glimmer could be seen and her muzzle contorted into a cruel snarl. "Aah, fuck it! I couldn´t care less about them, if I am honest. Birdhoff was right, you know?" She grabbed her left tit and massaged it, while lifting her skirt with her right hand, to give a good look on her luscious bum. "This body was made for sex, okay?", she said, while trailing over curves with her hands. "I have great tits and an ass, that makes stallions drool even before I put more effort into showing it off. And when I put a cock into my mouth everypony becomes butter in my hands. Especially that fat idiot, Birdhoof."

So that was her true self. Bitchy, confident and dominant. An almost complete reversal from her original personality. What had Birdhoof done? Zexis really needed to fix this in some way. He picked up on something Redheart said. "So you don´t feel any loyalty to him, or to me?"

Redheart laughed. It was a clear laugh, filled with contempt. "That limpdick? Sure, he was a great fuck at first, but that guy shoots quicker than a waterhose! I need a real stallion, damnit. Someone who just takes me, batters me inside and makes me feel safe, possessed, used!", she said loud, panting with exhileration upon giving away her darkest thoughts. "A stud, who understands my destiny!" Suddenly she grabbed her skirt and threw it violently on the ground. Her butt, now clearly visible, sported the picture of a big hand slapping down on the rump of a mare. A new cutiemark. Redheart grinned a little mad. "I am meant to be used. And he can´t provide that. He is too weak! In fact, another stallion dropped by and wanted my services. And damn was he good! He understood, what I needed."

Zexis ears perked up on that. Another one? So somepony had known the secret pass-phrase and used it one Redheart? But how...

The zebras mood darkened dramatically. It seemed like Birdhoof had talked. He looked to Redheart, who was now openly masturbating, plunching her fingers into her sloppy cunt, panting like a bitch in heat. "What was his name?", he asked her.

"What?"

"The name! The name of the stallion, who visited you. Tell me!"

Redheart opened her mouth, but then closed it again. She looked angry at Zexis. "I am not going to tell you! He said it would be secret and I follow only the stallion who truly understands me. My master!" Defiance was written all over her face.

Zexis looked at her and in his head the gears were turning. He slowly walked towards Redheart. The nurse swallowed in fear at the look of his face. She stood up hastily and tried to run to the door, but Zexis grabbed her by the arm and yanked back. She opened her mouth to scream, but his hand shot upwards and muffled her. "So you follow only your master?", he snarled in her ear. His free hand opened his trousers and freed his eleven inch long cock, which slapped erect and ready against Redhearts thighs. "Then I think its time, to show you who is the real boss!"

He grabbed her vest and tore it open. Buttons flew in all directions and Redheart squeaked in surprise. Before she could take another breath, Zexis threw her on the table, pressing her torso against the wood. He took a moment to position himself right. Then he bucked forward.

Whatever Redheart had wanted to say, even just a scream, was interrupted abruptly as the entire eleven inches were hammered into her pussy. The sudden entry pressed all air out of her lungs and she just laid there with open mouth, bulging eyes, as the biggest dick in her life forced its way into her womb.

Zexis didn´t waste any time to get going. He pulled out and then thrusted again. Again and again. Withouth pause and without mercy. Redhearts pussy-juice providing the lubrication, while he literally punched her insides with his dick. All the while, the nurse couldn´t utter a single syllable. At first she was desperate to get some air, but Zexis denied her that by grabbing her throat. He made sure not to choke her too much.

Suprisingly, this caused the mare to tighten in response. Her pussy began to react to his brutish pounding by squirting more. Every time Zexis choked her, Redhearts love-canal clenched, massaging his dick and causing his pleasure to rise. Zexis chuckled amused and leaned down. "So thats what gets you off, huh?", he whispered. Then he accelerated his pace.

Redhearts squeaked, spit foaming at her mouth and her eyes slowly rolling over. Stars appeared in her vision, as she could feel this battering ram made flesh pounding at the entrance to her womb. But Zexis wasn´t finished with her.

He grabbed her hips and turned her around. Then he grabbed with his free hand her tits and began to slap them. "Who is this stallion?" Slap! "Who is your master?" Slap! "What is your purpose?" Slap!

Soon her white tits gleamed red and every hit caused Redhearts to squeak more, lost in a delirium of pain and pleasure. Finally Zexis thrusted one last time, his cockhead flared and with a heavy grunt, he released a torrent of sperm into her needy, open womb. Redhearts brain finally fried at this climax, her pussy squirting violently and her entire body spasming.

Slowly Zexis pulled out, followed by a stream of white liquid, that flowed from the nurses abused cunt, now that there was nothing to hold back. He grabbed her head and yanked her towards him. "Answer my questions...slave.", he growled.

And Redheart, beaten and broken, answered: "It was...Thunderlane...master..."

Zexis nodded. So Thunderlane was more depraved than he had thought. Or had the stallion just wanted a fuck, after all his failed attempts at courting Rainbow Dash? Didn´t matter. He was going to talk to him.

The zebra looked down at the mare, he had just fucked. Redheart was still laying on the table, twitching with dumb smile on her face. Her make-up was smeared, her tits red from abuse and below was a growing puddle of semen. "Clean yourself up.", he commanded, while he dressed himself. "I want you to remove any evidence of our session. If someone ask, tell them you took a nap. Also tone it down with the seduction. Understood?"

Redheart nodded weakly.

"You will also begin seducing the male staff. I will provide you with the tools and instructions you need for this. Awaken their sexuality, one way or another and make them receptible to my goals."

The abused mare looked at him with defeated eyes, full of submission and lust. "What....what goal, master?", she asked meek.

Zexis walked to the door and smiled wickedly. "The Liberation of Equestria."

At the Orphanage

Zexis put on a brisk pace, as he walked down the street towards the Orphanage. School was done, as was his class, and as such many fillies and colts now roamed outside, enjoying the summer sun. The Oprhanage was almost deserted. Almost...

As he came closer, Zexis could see Birdhoof and Scootaloo jogging towards the entrance. Birdhoof was breathing or struggling to do so and drenched in sweat. Scootaloo was sweaty too, but in a way that was more alluring than messy. What Zexis could also see was that she had changed her outfit. Instead of some sport jeans and a loose shirt, she now wore a tight race-shirt and spats, that hugged her tight bum. Her face was flushed with, what Zexis knew, a mixture of adrenaline and suppressed arousal.

When Birdhoof saw, his face lit up. No doubt he anticipated the continuation of yesterday. His smile slowly dripped away, as he saw Zexis come closer and the anger on the zebras face. Zexis stomped by him and threw open the door. "Inside. Now!", he barked.

Birdhoof swallowed and Scootaloo frowned. "But we haven´t finished our third lap and..."

"Do what I say!", commanded Zexis louder than necessary. Birdhoof immediately rushed inside. Scootaloo tried to say something, but Zexis glared at her angrily. Normally the filly would protest and then defy him. But instead she wilted under his stare and walked with hanged head inside. Zexis closed the door.

"What the fuck were you thinking!?"

Birdhoof flinched in his chair. They were in his office now and he was sitting behind his desk, while Zexis paced through the room like a wild manticore. Scootaloo was waiting outside.

"Not only did you not listen about my order about being subtle. You also told Thunderlane about the Celestia-damned passphrase!?", yelled Zexis, not caring if Scootaloo could hear him. She wouldn´t run, he had made sure of that.

Birdhoof was now sweating heavier, than he had, while he was running. He tried to make his heavy frame smaller in his chair and was constantly looking towards the window, as if he was contemplating, if he could espace through it. Zexis fist hammering down on his desk, brought his attention back to the angry zebra. "I-I just thought....I didn´t think it would be a problem....", he stammered.

"Not a problem!? How could this not be a problem, that you wouldn´t even consult me or ask for permission?" Zexis drew his face closer, snarling the last words in Birdhoofs sweaty face.

The unicorn swallowed. "Well...because...Thunderlane comes to me regulary.", he explained. "He is from Manehattan as you know and it´s difficult for him to get certain items here in Ponyville. To, you know, wank off." He nervously wringed his hands. "So he approached me a few years ago, if I couldn´t help him. What with my trips to the city and all that."

Zexis let him continue. He knew that part. Birdhoof traveled every few months to the east-coast to pick up orphans and bring them to Ponyville. The town saw it as a charity action. Of course, the smarter part of the residents had picked up on the fact, that he primarily brought back girls. Thats how got his hands on Scootaloo.

"And I agreed. For a few bits and favors and bring him pornos, magazines, fleshlights...", said Birdhoof, still shaking in fear, "And a few days ago he asked me, if I knew an easy mare here in Ponyville. He was drunk, I think, so I just pointed him the Redheart. I didn´t think it would be problem."

Zexis looked at him sharply. It didn´t look like he was lying. He pissed himself too much for that. And it made sense, his story. A few days ago, that was the Guys Night. Thunderlane had probably been egged on by Zexis drugs and the alcohol he had consumed that night. It wasn´t too improbable that, with his lowered inhibtions, he would seek out his "dealer".

All in all, Birdhoof was right. It wasn´t that much of a problem. In fact, if Zexis played his cards right, it would become an opportunity. Still, he was pissed that Birdhoof acted without his consent. That could have gone very differently . And it was still not entirely clear, if this wouldn´t blow up in their faces.

Zexis stepped away from the unicorn and took a deep breath. His anger had gone down a bit, even though he was still livid. "You haven´t told him about me, at least?"

Birdhoof shook his head. "Not a word. Just about Redheart and the passphrase. I told him, that she set it up. You know, nurse by day, slut by night. He lapped it up. Was desperate to get a good fuck." He also had calmed down a bit, believing himself save.

Zexis glared at him silently. Then he walked towards the door, opened it and dragged Scoots inside. The pegasus filly was tied up with rope and gagged with some cloth. Zexis grabbed her muzzle and pulled out the gag. Then he reached inside his pockets and pulled out a hormone pill. Scootaloos eyes widened at the drug. Zexis looked down on her, then dropped his gaze towards her spats. He could see a damp spot between her legs. "You are aroused right now, are you not?", he asked her, not expecting an answer. "You are aroused and scared. Probably wondering what we were talking about, thinking how you tell the others. But don´t worry..." He forced her mouth open, put the pill inside and forced her to swallow it. "Soon you will care only about one thing: Getting fucked!"

Then he waited. Minutes passed by as Scootaloo struggled against her restraints and his iron grip on her muzzle. Slowly but surely her restistance faded. Her movements became slower and she clenched her thighs together in a desperate attempts to stave off her growing arousal. Soon her eyes were glazed with lust and her breath quickened. Zexis could her muffled moan.

"You wanted to get fucked all day, didn´t you? Thats why you put on these clothes, you wanted us to look.", said Zexis. He let go of her muzzle. "Because deep down you know you are slut. You know what your purpose is."

"Th-thats....not..t-true...", panted Scootaloo, now laying on the floor, jerking around, desperately searching for something she could rub her pussy against. Zexis decided to help her.

He untied the ropes and then grabbed her, holding her tight with one arm. His free hand then slid under Scootaloos spats and touched her drenched pussy. The filly responded with a bite on her lips, to suppress her moaning. Birdhoof sprang up to help him. "Oh, no no no!", barked Zexis, "You stay there. You will not raise a finger and watch."

Birdhoof withered away under his eyes and fell back on his chair. Zexis continued with his task, as he slowly prodded Sootaloos labia with his fingers, letting her squirm under his grip. Repeatedly he touched her entrance before pulling away. Soon the pegasus was panting and moaning openly.

Then he inserted one finger, carefully and only the tip. Just this movement almost brought Soots over the edge, as she clenched her thighs, trying to force him to go deeper. But Zexis refused and pulled his finger out again, only to start advancing with it again, after a few second.

This process continued for quite some time. Zexis bringing Scootaloo to the edge, before retreating immediately when it looked like she was about to climax. After ten minutes, she stopped struggling. After twenty, she openly drove her hips against his groin. After thirty minutes, she cried and begged.

"P-please...p-p-please...just...do it! Please, f-fuck me!", she cried, tears running down her face, as Zexis pulled his finger out again. At this point her pussy was drowning in its own juice, staining her spats. Her sweat caused its fabric and her shirt to cling to her fur, clearly showing every line of her thin, lithe body. Her nipples stood erect from her A-cups and her mane hang down in her face, wet with sweat.

"What will you do for that?", asked Zexis, again trailing his fingers over her sensitive pussy-lips. "What will you give me?"

Scoots moaned, jerking her hips. "E-e-everything!", she yelled, "I will do everything! J-just let me get off, already!" Her gaze caught Birdhoof, at the other end of the room, stroking his dick. "I-I do it with him! I f-fuck him, if you want me!", she said, looking at the fat unicorn with a hunger, that only came from pure unfiltered lust.

Zexis snickered cruel. "Oh noo, nothing so simple...", he said. He then let her go, dropping her to the ground. Scootaloo barely had enough strength to catch her fall, as her legs gave out under her. The zebra-stallion then pulled out a picture. It was a photo. Depicted was Scootaloo together with cyan-blue mare with rainbow coloured mane. Rainbow Dash. He had taken it out of her room. It was her most treasured item there, sitting on her night-desk.

"Rip it apart.", said Zexis, "Destroy it. Then I will consider..."

Further he didn´t came, before Scootaloo lunged forward, snatching the photo out of his hand. For a short moment she held in in her quivering hands. Then, she ripped it apart. Once, twice, three times. Then she threw the pieces to Zexis hooves. "There! Done! Now fuck me already, damnit!", she cried.

"No.", said Zexis. His smile became a grin, as looked at the despair in Scootaloos eyes. "I am not convinced yet."

The filly stared at him. First in disbelief, then in horror. Her hand raced through her mane and tears ran down her face. She curled up in ball, shaking and sobbing.

"Shouldn´t we..", began Birdhoof, but Zexis silenced him with a stare. That was important.

After a while, Scootaloo stopped crying. Slowly she got out of her fetal position. Then she crawled towards the scattered pieces of the photo. She took one up and stared at it. Then she spat at it.

Suddenly she rose up on her hooves. Her hand grabbed her spats and pulled them down. She positioned herself over the remains of the photo and then...pissed on them. A hot, long stream of urin splattered on the floor, drenching the torn photo. When she was finished, she stomped on it multiple times, before turning to Zexis.

Scootaloos eyes were wide. Madness, despair and lust could be seen in equal measure and her lips twitched. "E-enough?"

Zexis looked up and down on her. Her thighs, drenched juice and piss, her nipples poking through her shirt and the streams of tears over her face. "What is Rainbow Dash to you?"

"Nobody." No hesitation.

"When I fuck you, what am I?"

"Everything."

Zexis grinned. "And what are you?"

Scootaloo looked down. She swallowed. "....a slut..."

Zexis stepped toward her and grabbed her. Then he drew her into a warm, tight hug. "Yes...yes you are.", he said with a warm, friendly voice. "And that is okay."

Scootaloo broke down completely. She cried and sobbed, as all the frustration, all the pain and all the fear poured out of her. Tears fell down her face, drenching Zexis shoulder. Her arms grabbed him and drew him close, her small hands taking hold of his broad back. Zexis patted her head and let her cry. Let her let go of everything and submit completely to him.

Then, when she calmed down a bit, he released her. Her looked down on her petite frame and smiled. "And now for your reward."

With that he took and lifted her up over his erect and stiff standing prick. For a moment they stood there, unmoving, as he looked into her eyes. "Ready?" More he didn´t need to say. Are you ready to give up? Are you ready to fall, into pleasure and depravity? Are you ready to be reborn? All that was left unspoken.

Scootaloo looked at him. Her eyes were red and swollen and for a moment she didn´t understand. Then she looked down on his eleven inch monster and the realization dawned on her. A smile tugged on her lips, as she answered with wide eyes: "Yes..." And Zexis dropped her.

Eleven inches was a lot. It was enough to bottom out a full grown mare like Redheart. When Scootaloo fell on Zexis dick, gravity and the wetness of her pussy let it slid into easily. But she was not big enough. As such Zexis cock pratically impaled her, punching through the entrance of her womb. The outline of his prick was clearly visible as a bumb on her belly.

The filly didn´t scream. In fact she didn´t even breathe. Intead her mouth stood wide open, as every single synapse of her brain was fried. Her eyes rolled up into her head and she got limp. Zexis snorted at that sight.

He grabbed her under arms and pulled her up again, until his dick was almost out. Then her let fall again. That brought her back to consciousness, as she awoke with a high-pitched scream from her pleasure-induced coma. Zexis grabbed her again and finally began to move his hips. He started slow, pulling almost completely out, before slowly thrusting forward until he hit her womb, filling her completely. Every time he did that, Scootaloo shuddered and twitched in one orgams after another, as all her suppressed arousal spilled over.

Then Zexis began to accelerate, no longer content on letting the filly´s snatch accommodate like a glove and now wanting to hammer it into the shape of his dick. Scootaloos orgasm reached another high, as her moans began to pick a higher pitch. Spit flew from her mouth, as this zebra brought her to even higher levels of ecstasy.

Soon she began to buck against him, grinding her hips into his, trying to add more friction. Zexis grinned at this. He picked her up and carried her over to Birdhoofs desk. The unicorn was sitting there with wide eyes and his dick in his hand, furiously masturbating, as he couldn´t pull his eyes away from this spectacle. Never had Scootaloo shown this reaction, when he fucked her. This was not the defiant filly he knew. This was a wild, needy animal, that smiled like mad as she was fucked out of her mind.

His desk was already covered in string of sperm as he had climaxed early. Scootaloo saw this and, without prompting from Zexis, began to greedily lap them up, moaning loudly at the taste, as if this was the best she had was ever tasted in her life.

Zexis laughed at that depraved display. He looked to Birdhoof. "Insult her."

The unicorn looked at him confused. "What?"

"You heard me. Insult her. Tell her what you think of her. Because that is the only thing you will ever do to her.", Zexis smiled cruel. "She is mine now. My property. And you will never lay a hand on her. See that as punishment for your fuck-up." He grabbed Scoots mane and brutally yanked her head towards him. She squealed in delight, as he forcefully kissed her, their tongues dancing with each other. He pulled out and grinned at Birdhoof. "But insulting I allow. Tell her how you feel. Now!"

Birdhoof swallowed and looked at the pegasus on his desk, with her face full of bliss, as her belly was stretched again and again, by the cock that hammered into her. Then he spat at her. "Y-you f-f-fucking whore!", he said, "That is how you repay me? I should have let you in the gutter! Because thats where you belong! Sucking dicks like the stupid little bitch you are."

Scootaloo squirted at that, as she reached another orgasm, higher than the others. She panted and grinned. "Yes. YES! I AM A SLUT!", she screamed, now completely letting go of all inhibtions. "I am nothing but fuck-meat. The day my bitch of a mother pressed me out of her used cunt, I was this. I was a WHOOOORE!!"

Birdhoof grunted and another stream of spunk shot out of his penis and hit Scootaloo right in the face. The pegasus giggled at that and opened her mouth, greedily swallowing the rest.

Then Zexis raised his hand and slapped her on the butt. For a moment she was suprised, before - SLAP! - he hit her again, and she squealed as her masochism reached new limits. Zexis thrusted harder than ever, forcing more of his dick inside the small frame. The pain and pleasure completely overloaded Scoots. Her tongue hang out of her mouth, giving her the look of a dumb bimbo, as her brain was reshaped by every pounding of Zexis dick.

In all that chaos, Zexis eyes were drawn to the little pegasus butt. And he saw how her cutiemark, a shield with a lightning-bolt on it, slowly disappeared before black and red energy streamed from his cock into her flank, causing a new cutie mark to appear. A bitcoin, laying in pool of white liquid.

All of this happened in under a second and neither Birdhoof nor Scootaloo noticed it. But before Zexis could wonder what this was about, he felt his own climax approaching.

He lifted Scoots up for one last drop. Then as his prick was almost out and could barely hold it in, he dropped her, impaling her again and finally releasing his sperm. Scootaloos moan evolved into a drawn out scream, as she reached her greatest climax, her brain shutting down, as streams of semen entered her womb, unable to escape, as the flare of zexis cock had closed the entrance like a plug. Her back arched back, her arms clammering to Zexis torso, as her climax wiped out every doubt, every shame and broke her mind and reformed it again.

Then finally, as the pressure became to great, and Scootaloo looked like she was four months pregnant, Zexis pulled out completely and threw her to the ground, like a used toy. There she lay, grinning dumbly, as sperm oozed out of her pussy...

"First things first: We will continue with our plans. I will take care of Thunderlane. You will continue planting the lust emblems and your trainings regime - ugh, thats the spot -, as well as keeping your eyes and ears open for others like Thunderlane. Then you will - to the left, Scoots - come to me, before you make any decisions, understood?"

Zexis sat on a chair before Birdhoof, who nodded defeated. Scootaloo was laying before the zebra, completely naked, lovingly caressing his prick. She held in both arms and run it up and down with her tongue coating in saliva, lapping up any sperm, that was left. Zexis patted her head like you would do with a good pet and continued: "Scootaloo will assist me in school."

The filly perked up on her name and looked up. "I will?"

"Yes.", said Zexis, pinching her cheek lovingly, "I need someone to seduce the colts. We will start off slow, but I hope that, at the end of it, you will get all you holes plugged by the colts in schools." He grinned. "My own little schoolwhore."

Scootaloo grinned at that, fingering her pussy at the thought of getting fucked by her own classmates. Then she got an idea. "Will you fuck Applebloom and Sweetie Belle as well? Can I watch?", she asked, now openly masturbating.

Zexis smiled and nodded. "Of course. When I am finished with you, the Cutie Mark Crusader will become the Cutie Mark Cumdumpsters."

Scoots squealed and moaned at the idea of her closest getting ravaged by her new master. She could picture it. Sweetie Belle, covered in cum, laying broken on the floor. She holding Applebloom down, while her Master raped her from behind. With renewed gusto, she threw herself on his cock, sucking and bobbing her head.

Zexis grunted in satisfaction, holding the head of the filly, while she sucked him off. He looked at the dejected Birdhoof, who looked at Scootaloo and no doubt saw his missed opportunity at getting his own sexslave. "Let that be lesson for you, Birdhoof. Don´t. Fuck. Up."

The unicorn nodded weakly and got back at wanking off at the sight off his former victim, happily sucking off a zebra.

Author's Note

This chapter was a bitch to write. It is official now, I hate sex scenes. :applejackconfused:

Don´t worry, that doesn´t mean I will not write them, just that will take me longer to do so. I written this cursed chpater five times now, and have thrown every attempt in the bin. If I´m honest, I´m not even satisfied with this version, but I need to get something out or you will start breaking through the walls, I figure.

Still, I hope you like the trash that I produced and feel free to critisize. Also, Congratulations for Stormcloud1120! You have been chosen as my new Proofreader. Every new chapter will now go through him, before its released to clean up my writing. Not this one, though, because of time constraints. There quite a lot who volunteered for this, so I am honored. In the end I had to draw straws, more or less and Stormcloud1120 won. :twilightsmile:

Other than that, you can of course make new suggestion again and there new events coming up. What the colours mean? Well....you have to find out yourself. :raritywink:

I will reveal the meaning behind them in the next Interlude, but will come later. For now, try to hazard a guess, and maybe you are right. ^^

Have fun.

BZZZZZT.........Click!

Well this is both good and bad. I am glad to see Zexis making some progress and have more mare submit to his will bu the fact that Birdhoof bugger up again annoys me. One Must always preform the task given to them correctly and not make adjustments to said order unless extreme measure arise. However mistakes can happen and more so for those you lack any sort of intellectual prowess. I say give him one more chance but a harsher punishment is needed to make sure such mistakes do not happen again.

Moving on, we can still use one of Birdhoof mistakes to our advantage namely recruiting Thunderlane. To do this I recommend another drinking session with just Zexis and Thunderlane, he has already shown that by using a potion on him he becomes quite horny and thus easy for us yo manipulate. Once we have gotten him drunk and drugged up take him back to the flower trio place for a bit of fun and secure him to our side.

I know I have mentioned this numerous times but we need to get our own place weather we do this with whatever capital we have raised or convince Filthy Rich to give us a loan really does not matte, but it is important we get this sort sooner rather than later. Our skills and talents have so far covered our unusually long stay at the flower trio house, but I do not believe we should keep pushing them as much as we have some one will eventually realise how suspicious it is and will investigate. Also once we have our own place we can start making a proper headquarter which we could use for a variety of purposes from holding meeting (Orgy parties) to a stronghold were we can bring problem individual and break them at our leisure.

Lastly it seems we have a new event coming up but our Corrupter seem to be giving us additional information in the form of colour coding our options. We have Castle of Friendship which is green, Ponyville School which is yellow and finally we have the Everfree Forest which is red. This new information could mean any number of thing from difficulty to potential danger to Zexis if he does not interfere. However, after examining previous entrees and information from the Corrupter I am inclined to believe that it is the later. This conclusion comes from that fact that the Everfree Forest has come up multiple times for events and knowing that Zecora is in there and the power she wields it is highly possible that she is doing some major Voodoo to hinder us since she knows something of Zexis true nature. Even if this proves to be untrue any problem that arise from these events at the other two location can be handled with a lot more ease. Zexis is at Ponyville School every other day and with his growing influence over Cheerlie and certain students he should be able to find out and handle any problem that arise there. As for the Friendship Castle it most likely as something to do with Spike and since we have a pretty nice start on Corrupting him we can afford to have a small setback here which we should be able to contact later. Lastly we have next to no information on Zecora actions recently and without information we can not plan any thing involving her to any great extent.

Thus my vote is the Everfree Forest but we need to go in there prepare I would recommend stopping by Nurse Redheart and organising to get some heavy duty tranquillisers and see if we could make a blow gun or something to work with them or some other equipment to be able to use them from range.

Well that it for now.

That fucker touched something that's ours! We'll need to teach Thunderlane a lesson. Who is so pathetic he depends on Birdhoof for sex. I don't think anybody else caught that, Thunderlane is so fucking useless he needs BIRDHOOF to even get wanking materials. Yeah, he's not so openly pathetic and useless as Birdhoof. Call him Birdhoof 2.0. Slightly improved, just as much of a bitch. Sadly, Birdhoof has necessitated that we bring him into the fold. I suggest we just feed him a pack of lies under suggestion powder. He doesn't have access to any mares so keep him in the dark as much as possible.

And while we're on the subject, fuck Birdhoof! Useless piece of garbage can't even follow simple instructions right! And failing at 'don't tell anyone' is fucking lethal to a conspiracy! At this point, I'd say Birdhoof is a liability. And considering the stakes, well, let's just say it's time for Birdhoof to take a 'trip'. A nice friendly 'trip' straight to Tartarus!

Everfree Forest? Looks like Zecora is making her move. Time to put an end to her plans. It's time to implement Operation 'A Bird in the Hoof is worth a Zebra in the Bush'. Zecora has been gearing up and preparing for a duel with us. Or who knows what else. Do you know what she isn't prepared for? A fat idiot breaking in and trying to rape her. Let him soak up whatever traps and gadgets Zecora has planned. Let him tire her out. Then we swoop in, take her for our own, and hopefully have one less Birdhoof to deal with. Or hey, maybe he'll actually redeem himself in the attempt. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh couldn't keep a straight face. Like that'll happen.

One orange and blue light turns on, highlighting a figure shrouded in darkness.

He sighs before speaking. "Birdhoof's... indiscretion might be turned to an advantage, however we must keep a closer eye on him. We cannot let him make another screw up on this level.

"Thunderlane may prove to be a useful ally; a knight to Birdhoof's pawn. And maybe we can get information from him about what happened with Rainbow Dash.

"As for the events, I suggest the Everfree Forest. If an event like this is up then it most likely involves Zecora, and we know we'll need to deal with her sooner or later. Investigating this area may give us a lead.

"I would do more... work on Cheerliee instead of Sweetie Bell and Apple Bloom; we'd do more with having the teacher under our thumb first.

"Lastly we should learn more about the Purity Laws; what they entail and how they came about.

Until then, here's hoping things carry on smoothly. We will be watching."

The lights shut off.

Sweet Apple Acres, Late Morning

With a loud impact Zexis´ hoof hit the Appletree right in middle of its trunk. The tree shook a little bit, causing a half dozen apples to drop. More than a double still hung stubbornly on its branches. Zexis huffed angrily and took a few steps back for a new attempt. Sweat made his shirt clung to his torso and he breathed heavily.

"Not bad, fella!" Applejack came over from her tree, sweaty herself, but with two casket full of apples. She looked at Zexis work. "For an amateur, that is." Her smile took a little bit the bite out of that comment. She pointed at the tree. "Try hitting it a little bit higher up. Too close to the root, and the impact gets absorbed by the roots."

Zexis nodded and started again. He ran towards the trunk. At the last second he stopped and put all the momentum in his right leg, which raced forward. This time he aimed higher and his hoof connected a second time with the wood. Again the tree shook at the sudden hit, a little bit stronger this time. A few more apples fell to the ground.

Still not enough.

"Damn it!", cursed Zexis and began to pick the fallen apples up. Despite working on the orchards for over a week, he still didn´t make any great progress.

Applejack clicked her tongue dissapprovingly. "No curses on my farm, Chikelu.", she said.

"Sorry...", mumbled the zebra, before looking at the empty orchard, that was Applejacks work. "Just a little bit frustrated..."

The blond mare followed his gaze and grinned. "Well, you know what they say: No one kicked an orchard at their first day!"

Zexis was sure, that that wasn´t how the saying really went, but whatever. He put the apples into his basket and shouldered it. His work wasn´t quite done, but the morning was almost over, and he still had plans for today. As he walked towards the barn, he could see Applejack looking at his unfinished tree. With an almost casual ease she kicked the trunk lightly with her left leg. The appletree vibrated, then suddenly shook violently, letting the remaining apples rain down on the ground. She saw him looking and turned with a grin around. "You forgot something."

Zexis grumbled and walked back. All the while thinking about his plans. With Scootaloo finally broken, he had the servant he needed to corrupt the school and the rest of the CMC. He also could gain access to Rainbow Dash, finally moving on to "liberating" the Mane Six. But these were all plans he hadn´t enacted yet. Possibilities. They could wait. What he needed to do right away, was talking with Thunderlane. He had come to the conclusion, that Birdhoofs mistake could be turned into an opportunity. He didn´t had a high opinion of Thunderlane. He was probably just a limpdick, who couldn´t get the mare he wanted. But he was probably more reliable than Birdhoof. And another ally was always welcome. Maybe Zexis could help him aquiring the right attitude towards mares.

The zebra picked up the last apple and moved again towards the barn. He could see Applejacks firm ass sway in front of him, the shape and outline clearly visible in her worktrousers. Her tail whipping left and right, almost as if she was teasing him. Damn, what a hot mare! Zexis was sure that she would look even better, if she would put some effort into her looks. Not that she would in her current state. Applejack had more important things on her mind than being an eyecandy. Like the farm or her family. If Zexis really wanted to corrupt her, he first needed to get rid of these things. Rearrange her priorities. But for that, he needed to earn her respect. And respect he only got through good work, which seemed to be a rocky road indeed.

Finally they were approaching the barn. Zexis could see Big Mac sitting on a chair before the house. He was brooding over some papers, with a pencil resting behind his right ear. He didn´t look happy.

"Howdy, Mac!", said Applejack, "Got the last batch for today." She and Zexis put their basket down, besides a dozen others. Big Mac looked up for moment, grunted in affirmation, before turning his attention to the papers again. Applejack joined him, looking over his shoulder. "What you´re looking at? Numbers?"

Zexis could see Big Mac sweating a little, as his sister boobs were pressing against his back. Applejack wore a workshirt, but the continued use had worn the fabric thin. A nice show for Zexis and a everlasting tease for Big Mac. Applejack herself was blissfully unaware of this.

The red stallion cleared his throat, before laying down the documents. "Finances. Still going red.", he said, "Trying to find out why."

Applejack frowned, before blinking. "Trying to find out? You mean, you don´t know why we´re making losses?"

That was a suprise indeed, even for Zexis. He assumed the financial difficulties of the farm, was because of the added workload since Granny Smiths death, but apparently that wasn´t the case. He pretended like he checked the apples for impurities, so he could eavesdrop without the siblings getting suspicious.

Big Mac stroked his chin. "Eyup. Should be making profits. But something keeps pulling us under.", he explained, "Haven´t found anything in our files, however. Will keep searching..."

Applejack looked at the papers, thinking for moment. Then she shrugged her shoulders. "Well, good luck with that. I will just work harder, for now. We are going to pick up eventually.", she said, getting up from Macs shoulder and stretching her arms. Again she delivered unknowingly a nice show, with her tits standing noticeably from her chest and her muscles straining under her fur. Big Macs face took an even deeper red and he tried to avert his eyes. Zexis grinned a little bit at that. "I am going to take a shower. Have fun with your fancy math." Applejack walked inside the house, leaving a blushing and frowning Big Mac behind.

Zexis stood up from the basket and walked over to him. Big Mac saw him and his face immediately relaxed. "Good you´re here. Need a favour.", he said. Then he remembered something and reached into his pockets. "Here is your pay for today. Sorry it isn´t more." He gave Zexis a handful of bits.

"Na, its okay. With this and the rest of my savings, I can finally purchase my house." Zexis counted the bits, before pocketing them. He already had made the preparations. All he needed to do was delivering the payment to the Mayor. Then he would finally have his own house. "What can I do for you?"

Big Mac looked behind him, to make sure Applejack wasn´t listening. "Applebloom went to Zecora today.", he said with worry in his voice, "Probably wanted to pick up with her lessons." He scratched his head and Zexis could see the glimmer of fear in his eyes. "Thing is, Everfree has become more dangerous in the last few days. And Zecora has shut herself in. Don´t know if Bloom is safe and I can´t leave the farm alone, so..."

"You want me to look for her?" Zexis wasn´t thrilled with the idea on potentially running into the unfriendly shamaness again.

Big Mac noticed his displeasure. "I will make it up for you, don´t worry. But understand, she is my sister and....well this whole Mojo-thing is just...strange. Honestly I would like, if she wouldn´t do it at all, but Applejack supports it, so what am I going to do?" He clearly seemed worried, as he was beginning to ramble. "But she could be in danger and nopony would know and you are the only one, I can trust outside the girls and they tell me I shouldn´t worry. But I do worry."

He looked Zexis in the eyes. "Please, just make sure she is okay. Quick in and out.", he pleaded.

Zexis sighed. He really wasn´t feeling up for it. But he could hardly refuse Big Mac here. Especially considering that the big guy would owe him after that.

He looked over the Everfree looming on the horizon. Then he got an idea...a terribly, awful idea. An idea that could solve his problems with Zecora and begin the corruption of Applebloom and Big Mac. A smile crept up his face.

"Alright I do it."

Ponyville, Thunderlanes House, Midday

"So this where he lives?", Zexis asked. He stood before a two-story house at the edge of Ponyville. It stood in the line with several other buildings, with a little garden in the front. But while the others were clearly inhabited by families and the like, this one showed clearly that its occupants were two stallions from Manehattan. The garden was unkempt and littered with toys, from swords and plastic shields to a train that was so overgrown, that Zexis was sure that neither Thunderlane nor Rumble had touched it in the last five years.

"Sure does. Rumble invites me every now and then. Probably to impress me. A shame, that I didn´t pick him up on it." Scootaloo looked completely transformed. To a stranger, there would be not too much strange about her. She was still in her sports clothes and her mane was still unkempt. But Zexis could see the details. Like the thin, tight spats she wore, that hugged her bottom and outlined her pussy, if she were to stretch her legs. Or her erect nipples, that poked through the fabric of her shirt. There was also the slight blush of arousal in her face.

Zexis had allowed her to wear those clothes under the condition, that she would only do it when she was exercising, as not to arouse suspiscion. And that she would only rest in secluded, private spots. That made sure nopony would make a fuss, while also letting Scootaloo satsify her newfound lust. And if she would ever get too pent up, he would provide her with "entertainment".

"Want me to help?", she asked, smiling expectantly. "You could drug him, tie him up and I could blow him nice and slow. Make him go crazy. Maybe even let him fuck me outright." She shivered at the thought, a hand stroking her pussy through her spats.

Zexis however shook his head. "Not today. I just want to feel things out for today. Thanks for showing me the way." He waved dismissively at her.

Scootaloo pouted. "But your still going to fuck my brains out tonight, right?"

"Yes, yes. If you are pestering me more, I will probably strangle you while I´m at it.", said Zexis annoyed.

Scootaloo shivered again and a mad grin parted her face. "Not a good way to get rid of me, master...", she said. She came closer, a hand creeping up his thighs, hugging his package and her tongue rolling down his sweaty right arm. "Only excites me more..."

SLAP! Zexis backhand did send her sprawling to the ground. Scootaloo squeaked in pain, holding her cheek. Between her legs, Zexis could see a damp spot as the pain caused her to orgasm slightly. "Ouch! So cruel..."

"Just piss of, you maso-bitch.", growled Zexis, glaring at her.

Scootaloo swallowed, with more liquid pouring out of her cunt. "Y-yes master. Of course, master.", she said, shivering in delight at the verbal abuse. She hurried to her feet, turning around. "Can´t wait for tonight...", she said, winking at him. She gave him a clear view of her stained spats, as she parted her legs for him, before racing away.

Zexis chuckled, as he looked after her. It became increasingly difficult in dealing with all that libido. He would soon need help in satisfying all that lust or find a way to improve his skills in bed. For now however, he had them under control. Scootaloo in particular would stay happy, as long as he treated her like dirt. That made things certainly easier, even though he had to look out not do that in public. Thankfully this time around, most ponies were either at school or working, so he didn´t need to worry, that somepony saw his "interaction" with Scoots.

Thunderlane on the other hand was at home. Zexis knew that, because the weatherteam of Ponyville had their day off today. They had cleared the sky yesterday and the next stormfront was scheduled in three days. And if it wasn´t Guys Night or Wonderbolt Training, Thunderlane was usually at home. At least that´s what Birdhoof had told him.

Zexis stepped up to the door and knocked. For a moment, nothing happened. Then he could he hear somepony coming down the stairs, something crashing, a curse and then hurried footsteps towards the door. A moment later Thunderlane opened the door. The black stallion with light-blue mohawk looked dead tired. He had big bags under his eyes, wore a white sweatshirt that showed his wide shoulders and muscles and his mane was unkempt. "What the...Zexis!?", he asked.

"Good morning, Thunderlane.", greeted Zexis, ignoring the fact, that it was way too late for that. "I wanted to talk with you about something."

The pegasus blinked several times, before his brain finally started working. "Oh, yeah right. Morning, too.", he mumbled, before yawning. "Sorry, had a bad night. What do you want to talk about?"

Zexis made sure, nopony was around to eavesdrop, before leaning in closer. "It´s about Redheart."

Suddenly all the lethargie went out of Thunderlanes face. His hand shot forward, grabbed Zexis by his shirt and yanked him into the house. Then he slammed the door shut and closed the windows. "Fuck!" Thunderlane was sweating, his face pale as he turned to Zexis. "I´m sorry! I was drunk that night and Dirthoof told me....shit, please don´t tell the guards."

Zexis was a little bit suprised at the sudden reaction. His companion looked like he just had a heart attack. "Calm down. I´m not here to rat you out.", he said, "I just wanted to know how you got Birdhoof to tell you about it. And what he told you."

That seemed to work, as Thunderlane slowly calmed down. He was still nervous, but at least he wasn´t hyperventilating. He went to the windows, closing the shutters. "Why do want to know? Or an even better question: How do you know about Redheart?", he asked.

"Let´s just say, that I was the one who gave her the idea for the side-business.", said Zexis. It was probably best, not to reveal too much. Vagueness would only help him here. He didn´t know how high Thunderlanes moral standards were. The risk of him getting upset, if he were to know the full extent of Zexis machinations was too high.

Thunderlane looked at him suprised. "Seriously? Fuck, okay then...." His hands ran through his mane, as he nervously paced the room. "Listen, you are new here, so you probably don´t know, but prostitution is outlawed in Equestria."

Zexis nodded. "I am aware. The Purity Laws, right?"

"Right. But it´s more than that. There is a huge moral stigma here, if you are involved in any kind of open sexuality. Even if you do not break the law, or they find you innocent, folk here don´t forget. And if anypony thinks you are improper...well you can kiss your social standing goodbye." Thunderlane stopped pacing. He went for the kitchen - a place cluttered with old dishes and food from the morning - and pulled out a heavy book he had used as a support for one of the table legs. He gave it to Zexis.

"Thats a law book. They gave it to me the day I arrived. A Guide for proper behaviour they had said. Were probably worried, because I came from Manehattan."

Zexis looked at the book. It was heavy and looked worn. It had stylized letters and was all in all rather dull. On the front stood: Appendix for the Laws of Purity in Body and Soul; by her illustrious majesty, Princess of the Sun Celestia. He propped it open. After a few minutes he found the part that described the laws of prostitution: Any activity that involves the usage of ones body in sexual manner, and that is not limited to a private relationship approved by the princess and the state, and that is exchanged for monetary benefit of any kind is prohibited. Anyone, be it pony or otherwise, who is aware of such activities, but did not report them, supports those activities or enables them is punishable by the law. The minimum sentence is 6 years in prison or a bail of 100.000 bits.

Zexis nearly choked at that. The text did not specify if the six years were only for prostitution or for compliance, but it indicated the latter, which meant that the former was punished even harder. Ridicilous! "What. The. Fuck.", said Zexis with growing disbelief.

"Told you.", answered Thunderlane. "Even in Manehattan they just pretend, like it doesn´t exist. But if somepony whores too openly, they deal with them the same way." He thought of taking the book back, before shaking his head. "Keep it. Should help you."

He sighed, running his hand over his tired face. "Quite honestly, I don´t even want to know how you convinced Redheart. Just tell her, that she should stop, before we all get caught. I was drunk, but that doesn´t count as a good defence before the judge."

"But I thought they relaxed over the last few years?"

"On public behaviour, yes.", answered Thunderlane, "If you want to wear lighter clothes in the summer, or a bikini on the beach, you can do that now. But the heavy stuff? Stripping or Whoring? No chance in hell Princess Celestia is going to let that slide. And Princess Luna is not up for it either."

Zexis huffed. Truly, Equestria desperately needed his help. "That is not right.", he said to himself.

Thunderlane heard that. His face dropped and he shook his head. "Oh nonono! You get that right out of your head. There were a lot more powerful and smarter guys out there, who wanted to challenge the Purity Laws. And they all failed. And their careers soon after. Don´t make the same mistake."

He sighed, before going to the sink and filling himself a glass of water. "It´s not that bad, honestly. Ponyville is a nice place with pleasant folk. And Equestria is more stable and peaceful then the rest of the world. No Beasts or ancient evils anymore. If we have to trade our libido for that, fine. I can deal with that.", he said, while drinking.

Zexis looked at him sceptically. "Evidently not, considering what we are talking about."

Thunderlane winced. "A lapse in judgment. Rumble always tells me not to drink too much. Will not do it again."

Zexis nodded. Then he noticed something. On Thunderlanes right arm hang a little wooden heart, nothing more than a trinket. His trinket. That explains the bad sleep., thought the zebra. Probably a gift. But from whom? "Where did you get that?", he asked.

"What, that?" Thunderlane looked at the small talisman. "Dash gave it to me, along with a batch of flowers. Didn´t say why. Probably as an apology." He shrugged.

That brought Zexis to the other thing he wanted to talk about. "By the way, what exactly happened between the two of you? You didn´t get into detail last time."

Thunderlanes face hardened. "That is...private.", he said court, "I would appreciate it, if we do not speak of it."

But Zexis didn´t let himself be dissuaded. "Come on. I know about Redheart, what could possibly be more..."

Further he didn´t make it, as Thunderlane rammed the glass he held onto the table with an audible impact. "I said it´s private!", he growled. All the sympathy was gone from his demeanor and Zexis quickly reminded himself, that he was alone in a room with an athlete. An athlete with military training.

Thunderlane walked briskly towards the door, unlocked and opened it. He looked at Zexis without a word.

The zebra got the message. He tucked the book under one arm and walked out of the house. Once he was over the doorstep, he turned around, wanting to say something, only for Thunderlane to smash the door shut before his face.

That certainly could have gone better...

Everfree Forest, late Midday

The Everfree was dark. Even with the sun standing at the zenith, there was only a few rays of light, that made it through the thick canopy. The trees stood close to each other, strangling each other for sunlight, twisting and turning in unnatural ways. Sometimes even growing on the path itself, trying to erase that small bit of civilization. Every now and then one could see a pair of glowing eyes in the dark.

"Why am I here?", came it from Birdhoof.

Zexis turned around. They were on the path to Zecoras hut. Zexis knew, that this was the way Applebloom would take, after finishing school. If they hurried, they could catch up to her before she reached Zecora. Not that that was the plan, of course.

He looked at Birdhoof. The fat unicorn sweated. It wasn´t exertion as more than fear that let sweatbeads run down his face. Clearly the caretaker didn´t like the forest. "I need a second pair of hands for this. And it´s your chance on making up for your blunder last time.", he explained, while venturing forth. "Do you have everything?"

Birdhoof wimpered, but followed him. "Syringes, already filled sedatives. Hormone Pills. And this..." He pulled out a small bag and looked at it confused. "What is this actually?"

Zexis took it from him and pocketed it. "My own creation. Knockout Powder. Inhale it and your brain gets a sensory overload, causing you to fall unconscious. Figured we might need that today..."

He didn´t elaborate for what, but from the fearful look on Birdhoofs face it was clear that his minion understood anyway. They were preparing for a fight.

One more thing, Zexis. If you happen to go to the Everfree for whatever business you wish to do there, keep in mind that the forest is a wild, dangerous place. One of the dangers often encountered there are magical creatures called Timber Wolves.

Timber Wolves are a form of self-creating golems which inhabit constructs made of rocks and deadwood. Good on the attack, but tend to crumble on a strong hit. Since they can regenerate from almost nothing and don't require sustenance other than ambient magic, that's not usually a problem. The important part for you—other than the sharp fangs and claws—is that they're mostly plant creatures.

You can feel your affinity for all things plant life, can't you, Zexis? Back in Zebrica, powerful shamans would know how to tame the wild spirits of nature, just as they tame their own females. Perhaps there is potential there. A Timber Wolf's "corpse" is saturated with the Everfree's chaotic magic even if the will has moved on to a different shell. A priceless item for a skilled alchemist! Not only that, but perhaps you will eventually stumble across a way to gain some form of influence over the creatures. Even control.

And even more interesting, Zexis... You dimly remember your teachers mention a way to infuse another being with such natural magics. There are stories of legendary Zebra sorcerers who not only dared to cross the mares in their care with many non-equine creatures in a carnal way, but who would create powerful, loyal mare-slaves by mutating them in various ways. You have to admit, the idea of a timber-pony Applejack, wagging her tail, staring at you with glowing green eyes and begging for your touch is deliciously hot.

Keep the possibilites in mind, Zexis...

A low growl caught Zexis attention. His eyes wandered through the thick bushes, that bordered the path. Finally they fell onto a Timberwolf. A canine creature made out of wood, twigs and bark. A golem, given primitive life by the overflowing wild magic of the Everfree. Predators, that stalked the thicket, yet would not eat their prey, for what use had they of flesh? There were numerous theories about their existence and behaviour. Some said they were a freak accident of magic, imprinted with instincts of real wolves, but unable to fulfill them, which caused them to be so aggressive. Others thought, that they were a manifestation of the will of nature, appearing when the spirits of the forest were restless.

Zexis tended more towards the latter theory. Sure, it wasn´t really scientific, but he knew enough about spirits and the like, back from Zebrica, to know that one shouldn´t scoff so easily over things like that. And the Everfree had a will. He could feel that...

And it was angry...

The Timberwolf didn´t attack them. It just stood there and watched them walk by, before vanishing into the darkness. On another day, Zexis might have feeled inclined, trying to figure out how to control to creature. Maybe he could overwrite whatever primal magic held it together and use it for himself. And even if that didn´t work, Timberwolf-wood was very useful in alchemy.

But today he had different worries. And more importantly he wasn´t sure, if he would succeed. His skill in alchemy wasn´t good enough for that and he felt that his affinity towards nature was far too weak, to overrule whatever programm the golem was running on. He would try another time.

...

After half an hour they finally caught sight of Applebloom. The young filly walked cautiously through the forest and had, as Zexis quickly noticed, a talisman in her hand. It was made out of elm wood and carved in the shape of a half-moon, glowing in a pale blue light. From the craftsmanship Zexis deduced that Applebloom most likely made it herself. Not bad for an Apprentice.

She held it in front of her chest, constantly looking through the shadows. She was nervous, which wasn´t good. Because if Applebloom was afraid of the Everfree, that meant that Zexis and Birdhoof were in even greater danger. He turned to Birdhoof and they both went and hid themself behind a bush.

"Zecora?", called Applebloom into the forest. "Zecora, please come out! I know you´re there. I just want to talk."

"Go away, Applebloom...." Zecoras ghostly voice echoed from the darkness. It seemed to come from all sides. "I can see the shadow over your shoulder. Go away...and tell Twilight that Equestria is in great danger..."

Zexis frowned at that. What did she mean?

Applebloom didn´t seem to understand as well. "Wha-what do you mean? What darkness? Is it Tirek? Someone else? Please tell me!"

"Older than the centaur....", came it from Zecora, "A darkness enveloping and swallowing us all. Twisting our souls, corrupting our minds. Its tendrils have reached us. That is what the spirits say...the most evil mojo...."

"The spirits?" Applebloom gasped in terror. "Zecora, did you summon the dead!? You told me that was too dangerous here. What if they possessed you?"

Zexis brows furrowed. Summoning the spirits of the dead was dangerously close to necromancy. Most shamans only did it with recent deceased or none at all. Only the most powerful would dare summoning older ones or even binding them. Was Zecora really capable of that?

"They didn´t, pupil.", whispered the hidden shamaness, "For I did not summon them. They....came to me."

Several ethereal shapes appeared from the shadows. They were translucent, sceletal ponies. Naked, some of them showing the wounds that caused the demise. They floated towards the pathway, but not coming closer to Applebloom. They seemed to be cautious of her talisman.

The filly was now shaking in fear, but she did not run. Instead she turned towards the direction the spirits were coming from. "Please, let me help you! Come with me.", she said, failing to keep the fear out of her voice. "Twilight will surely find a way...there is no need for that...." She gestured towards the ghosts.

"I cannot, Applebloom...it has seeped into the castle. It is still weak, but I cannot take the risk. I will need to destroy it."

"Destroy?", asked Applebloom confused, "Destroy what?"

Zecora stepped out of the forest, her hood up, hiding her face and only letting her eyes shine through the darkness with arcane power. On her belt hung dozens upon dozens of fetishes, talismans and potions and in her left hand Zexis could see a dagger, that glowed with yellow runes. "Destroy him.", she said, pointing at Zexis.

Zexis reacted immediately. He grabbed a syringe and rose up. He made sure that he seemed calm, even though his heart was racing. On his face he put concern, worry and fear. The last one he didn´t even need to act. He could practically feel the arcane energy from Zecora. How long had that bitch prepared herself? Weeks? Months?

He slowly walked towards them, his hand behind his back. Applebloom looked at him, scared and confused, still clutching her amulet. "Zexis? What are you doing here? I though you were..."

"You brother told me to look after you. He was worried you might get in trouble", interrupted Zexis. He looked at Zecora and the spirits, who were floating at the edge of the path. "And it seems he was right..." He took a few steps towards Applebloom.

Immediately the spirits sprung to action. Two of the floated in front of him, hissing angrily and barring the way. "Do not touch her, Defiler!" Zecora raised her hand and several long, haunting howls answered her. Timberwolves.

Zexis shook his head. "What are you talking about? I just want to help! I don´t even know, what I did wrong!?"

"Yours is an existence that should not exist. Your thought are not you own and great evil lies in your action. Begone!" With the last words, darkness began to encroach closer. The ghosts got bolder and they began to surround Applebloom.

Zexis showed his teeth in frustation, before holding out his hand to the filly. "This clearly leads nowhere. Applebloom, come! Lets get out of here!"

She was shaking, tears in her eyes, but Applebloom did not come closer. Instead she turned to Zecora. "Z-Zecora, please....stop this. I don´t want this...l-let´s just talk about it.", she pleaded, crying openly now. "I want to understand..."

Zecora looked at her and for a moment she hesistated. The glow around her eyes faded and the spirits seemed to sense it, turning their attention towards her for a second. As if they were looking for orders.

A second was all Zexis needed. He dashed forward, through the gap between the two ghosts. If he were nimbler, he might have avoided them completely, but one of them floated towards him and grazed him. A biting cold flowed through shoulder and his arm turned numb. Thankfully it wasn´t the one, who held the syringe. He closed the space between him and Applebloom. She saw him too late, screamed in terror. His healthy arm shot forward and he rammed the syringe into her neck.

The sedative worked immediately. He had made sure he got a strong one, so she wouldn´t struggle. Appleblooms eyes rolled into her head and she went limp. Zexis catched her before she could fall.

Seeing that Zecora roared in anger. The spirits responded immediatly, floating towards Zexis, howling.

"Birdhoof! Help me!", screamed Zexis. Birdhoof sprang up from his position, but was cut off as two more ghosts appeared before him. He stopped in his tracks, terror written all over his face.

"RELEASE HER, YOU DEMON!" Zecoras voice bellowed throughout the entire forest, no doubt amplified because of an artifact.

"You go to sleep." Zexis pulled out the little bag with Knockout-Powder. Opening it with his numb hands and throwing it into her direction. The Powder hit the shamaness directly in the face, causing her to cough and inhale.

And then....nothing happened.

Zecora shook her head and glared at Zexis. Fuck! She is actually immune!?, thought Zexis. But he didn´t had time to worry about that, as the spirits were almost upon him. He tried to dodge out of the way, but there too many and he was too slow. An ethereal hand passed through his left leg and he stumbled.

Immediately they threw themselves at him. Zexis saw them converging and closed his eyes, awaiting the oncoming doom.

Then Appleblooms talisman flared up. The pale, blue light erupted from the wood, striking the ghost. Their angry howling turned into fearful, pained screams as the moonlight threw them into the darkness. A few tried to fight the light, but after a few tense seconds even they were banished into the forest. The light washed over Zecora, leaving her untouched.

Zexis looked stunned at the talisman. Could it be that Applebloom actually got her hands on a holy symbol of a god? But how? And who would give her something, that even priests could rarely acquire?

He heard a grunt and saw Zecora pull a fetish from her belt. Question could come later. He got up and carried Applebloom over to Birdhoof. That one had finally overcome his fear and helped him, taking the legs of the filly. Together they booked it, not even looking back, as Zecora was ratteling the fetish and muttering an incantation.

"Come forth, creatures of the wild magic. Come forth, Wolves of Timber!"

Howling filled the forest. Soon Zexis could see a pack of Timberwolves leaping out of the thicket, trying to catch up to him. Then a second one, then a third. Soon more then a dozens of these golems were snapping at their heels.

"They are catching up!", screamed Birdhoof.

"I know!"

Zexis threw Applebloom to him, got his hands free. One Timberwolf jumped, its jaws wide open. Zexis fist hit his wooden skull, scattering the leaves and twigs and throwing the rest of the body to the wayside.

But Zexis didn´t had much time celebrating his victory, as the wood began to quiver, shake and then reassemble itself to form a new Timberwolf.

"Fuck..."

Two more attacked. Zexis caught the first one in the air with his right hand, before throwing it on ground, shattering it on impact. Birdhoof catched the second ones leg with his telekinesis and flung it into a nearby bush. They reformed immediatly.

"If we do not hit hard enough, they just come back!", yelled Birdhoof, still running, but rapidly running out of steam.

Zexis was aware of that, but he had no idea how to do that. They were brittle enough to shatter easily, but the parts themselves were sturdy. His fist weren´t strong enough....

His fists....

Suddenly Zexis stopped. The Timberwolves saw their chance. The biggest one of them, their leader, stepped forward. His fangs were sharp, dripping with sap. A dark, low growl came from within him. He paced closer. And then, as Zexis didn´t react, he leaped forward.

Zexis hoof crashed into his torso. The kick broke through the drywood, scattering broken bark into every direction. An appletree might withstand that impact, but a Timberwolf could not. The alpha fell to the ground, broken. For a short moment his parts quivered, then they laid still.

Zexis stomped his right leg on the ground. "I buck trees every day, you fucking bastards.", he growled, "Come at me!"

Skill unlocked! Applebucking Kicks (basic)

Another one pounced. Zexis kicked his left leg foward, hit its jaw, sending it into the bushes. Then two of them attacked. He whirled around catching one of them with his right leg from the side, breaking through his torso and hitting the other one. A howl alarmed the zebra to an attack from behind and he turned around, just as another wolf tried to sink its teeth into his neck.

Birdhoof reacted. His horn flared up, grabbing the beasts hindlegs with telekinesis and yanking it away from Zexis. The zebra followed it up with a high kick. His hoof smashed through its jaw and destroyed the Timberwolf. The remaining ones howled with rage and threw themselves forward.

Zexis looked to Birdhoof. He nodded. They both understood what to do.

Birdhoof once again caught the fastest ones with magic and Zexis shattered them with precise kicks. This way they methodically took out one after the other, always making sure, that not more than two could attack them at the same time.

After several minutes of intense fighting, Zexis right leg speared through the last remaining Timberwolf. The beast howled in pain, before falling apart. Panting and choking for air the two stallions looked around.

The path was littered with twigs, leaves and broken bark. If one would look at it, one would assume, somepony just didn´t cleaned the road. Only the two of them knew what kind of battle they just fought.

"That...was...amazing...", panted Birdhoof. He still carried Appleblooms on his back, but a grin parted his lips. "Scary....and amazing..."

Zexis just nodded. His eyes were set on the darkness behind him. Through the shadows he could see Zecora looking at him. Her green eyes brimming with hatred, piercing through the darkness.

"Come on, lets go. Don´t want to find out what else she has in store for us.", he said and grabbed Appleblooms shoulders again, so they shared the burden.

Birdhoof nodded and together they ran as fast as they could. Zecora did not pursue...

Outside the Everfree Forest

"Shit, that was close."

"You can say that again."

"Shit, that was..."

"I was joking!" Zexis shook his head. Still, they managed to escape, which was something. He looked down at the unconscious Applebloom. Then he punched her in the face.

Birdhoof jumped up. "What are you doing!? We just saved her!", he yelled in shock.

"Need to make it seem like Zecora injured her.", answered Zexis calm, "She is heavily sedated, she won´t be waking up anytime soon." With that, he took a sharp knife, that Birdhoof gave him with trembling hands. He then cut into Appleblooms thighs several times, as well giving her one over her collarbone. Just superficial, nothing deep. Yet, Birdhoof still winced. Zexis grabbed her shirt and ripped it lightly, as well as cutting her jeans two times.

Then he stood up and looked down on his work. Applebloom now looked like she had been through tartarus. She was bleeding, her left cheek was swollen and her clothes torn. Everything he needed for his story.

He looked at Birdhoof. "Let´s get her to Redheart."

Ponyville Hospital

Big Mac stood in the floor, at the glass window that seperated him from the patients room. Behind that laid Applebloom on a bed, sleeping, covered in bandages with Applejack holding her hand. The blond mares eyes were red. She had been crying.

Zexis came up to Big Mac, two cups of coffee in his hands. He gave one to the red stallion. "Here, for the nerves.", he said.

Big Mac didn´t look at him, but took the cup and sipped at it. "Nurse said it´s just light injuries.", he said.

Zexis nodded. He knew that of course, but held up his sad look. He let a little bit of relief show. "Thats good to know.", he said. Then he looked down again. "Still, if I had just been faster, then I could have prevented this..."

"Don´t blame yourself.", said Big Mac. He took another deep sip from the coffee. "You couldn´t know what would happen. You couldn´t know that she....that she would..." His voice cracked and tears welled up in his eyes.

Zexis put a hand on the big guys shoulder, giving him support as quiet sobs racked the stallions body. "The nurse said, she is going to be fine. A few days of sleep and everything will be over.", he said, trying to calm the farmer.

Big Mac nodded, took another deep sip. "Y-you´re right....still, it´s just...seeing her like that..." Her drank a bit more. His tears still rolling down his face, but his expression darkening. "I never though Zecora would do that. To just attack her like that..." Anger swelled within him. The cup in his hands was slowly crushed, with hot coffee running down his arms. Big Mac didn´t even notice.

Zexis nodded. "She was probably possessed by the ghosts. She said something about them coming to her. Maybe she is a victim, too?", he said, fully knowing what the reaction would be.

Big Mac snarled, his lips parting to show his teeth grinding. "Victim or not, she hurt my little sister! I told Applejack this was dangerous. I told all of them.", he growled, his voice dripping with hate, as the hormone pills in the coffee lowered his inhibitions and detroyed the mental barriers that were holding his rage back. "She is going to pay for that."

"And after that?", asked Zexis quiet, whispering in his ear. "But will you do about your sisters? The farm?"

Big Mac looked at him, his face a mixture of anger and determination. "I am going to educate them." He then turned around and threw the cup into a bin.

Zexis grinned victoriously, gestured Birdhoof who was sitting nearby and they both followed Big Mac. It was time for Round Two!

Author's Note

Phew, that were close to seven hours of work here. I am quite proud of myself. :pinkiehappy:

Anyway, on to my comment on this chapter: Everfree Forest won out narrowly over Friendship Castle, which I found quite interesting. Seems like quite a lot of people were content on letting Zecora get away a third time. :raritywink:

I also made sure, to drop some hints in the chapter where some traits were insufficient or lacking, when it came down to it. Hope some of you picked up on that. That didn´t mean zexis would lose, but it would make the situation harder or take away some option.

Now on to other matters. The colours: A lot of you had some decent ideas and some came even pretty close. Now I am going to tell what they mean. Generally they will inform you about the skills, that will be mainly used in an event. I don´t like telling what the best option is, because that would be boring. The same goes for danger. Instead I am going to show you, what skills Zexis needs to make the most out of an event. Green means social. Yellow means physical. Purple is arcane (Magic, alchemy, etc.). And Red means combat. With that you can determine, what your chances are. But remember, depending on how long you ignore some events, there will some consequences in the future for that. So don´t always pick green, just because you don´t want to fight. Like I said, events will always play out in Zexis favor, if he takes them. The better he is at the demanded skills, the higher the outcome, that is all.

I will in the future make clear what the mechanics are immediately. That is what I decided after the feeback I got from you guys. Still, it was interesting (and entertaining) to see your reasoning in choosing the options.

What else? Oh yeah, the next chapter will be an Interlude. So keep that in mind. (Quick reminder: NO SUGGESTION IN THIS CHAPTER WILL BE COUNTED!!!) So you can think about some question you have for Eros, or some roleplay interactions or inquiring about the world this story takes place. (worldbuilding...hint!Hint! :raritywink: )

You can spend the Corruption Points (CPs) in the Interlude then, not now. Forgot to mention that last time. I only posted them, so you can keep track of them.

The boss fight with Zecora will happen after the Interlude.

Other than that, I hope you enjoy the chapter and I wish you a good day.

Third Interlude

Tartarus, Eros Sanctuary

The Hall was empty. The throne stood in the middle, as usual, but Eros was nowhere to be found. However it seemed like he had found the time to repurpose the broken furniture from last time. In a far corner, surrounded by scraps of wood, stood a relief. It looked like a carved picture of two young alicorns. They were in chains, naked and their muzzles bound by a ballgag. The elder one kneeled in front of a huge alicorn-stallion, her buttocks raised in the air, while her younger counterpart was speared on the stallions humongous cock, her tongue lolling out of her mouth and her face distorted by bliss. A crowd stood in the background, cruel smiles on their face and spitting on the kneeling one.

On the opposite side of the cavern a portion of the stone wall moved to one side, revealing a hidden entrance and Eros, who carried a bag with him, as if he just came from shopping. His back was turned and it seemed like he was speaking to someone. "Yes, I am very thankful for this opportunity, but it doesn’t mean you can start pestering me!", he said annoyed, with a hint of anger.

"Don’t be like that? Have you any idea how hard it was, smuggling these souls through the higher levels to down here? You know that Cerberus patrols these areas daily!", came it back. The voice sounded alluring, sexual, but strangely high-pitched like it came from a little filly.

Eros rolled his eyes. "Yes, yes, but I paid you already. The transaction is finished, the business concluded. Now piss off!"

"Is that the way you treat your former second-in-command? At least tell me, what you are doing in there! You haven´t talked with me for over seven hundred years, not to mention that I didn´t get fucked for over eight hundred!" The voice sounded more and more like a petulant child, accompanied by just the right amount of whining. "Just show me, already. Please, pretty please!"

"No!", bellowed Eros. Then he composed himself and sighed. "Look, Lilith. I appreciate your effort, but this is private. Don’t butt you horny head in and we will all sleep easier." Behind him appeared a green light as the Corruptor flared up to life.

Connection established!

"What was that?" A small pink hand, with sharp black nails appeared on the side of the entrance, as its owner tried to wriggle her way into Eros sanctuary.

"Nothing!"

The stallion’s horn flared up and the stone wall slammed into its original place, nearly crushing the fingers, that were hastily pulled back. Eros sighed in relief, turned his back on the door and walked away from the muffled sounds of an angry tirade.

The God of Lust walked over to the relief in a pace that seemed steady, but controlled like he was barely holding himself back from running. On the way there, he picked up the Corruptor and let it float beside him. "Couldn't have picked a better time, hm?", he said sarcastically, "Lilith was already a handful back in her prime. Her incarceration in Tartarus has only made her more frisky." He sighed and ran his free hand through his dark-red mane. "She was powerful and, more importantly, useful back in the day. But here she will only make problems. It´s best to not involve her."

He stopped before the relief. There he put the bag down and reached into it, pulling out numerous flasks that were filled with an smoky wisp-like substance. Every now and then, one could see a face appear before the glass, twisted in anguish and screaming wordless. Eros looked at them with excitement. "Damned souls. They are rarity these days in Tartarus. Since the god of judgment was slain, no new ones had been transferred here, so all that is left are the ones he condemned before his demise."

He took one of them and carefully opened it. Then he poured the contents of the flask into the wooden relief. The souls wailed for the time, they were outside of the glass, but were silenced as they entered the object. The relief flared up for a moment, before fading back into ordinary wood.

Eros repeated the process with all remaining flasks. At the end of it the relief was glowing in a ghostly light and the depicted beings on it were moving, as if they were alive. The crowd of ponies were shaking their fists, pointing at the kneeling alicorn filly, who was watching with tears in her eyes as her sister was slammed down on Eros´dick, again and again and again. At some point the younger sister regained consciousness, only to flash a wicked smile at her shocked sister and turning her head to give her assailant a sloppy kiss. That was the sign for the crowd to burst forward, grabbing the older alicorn and beginning to gangrape her. There was no sound, but the ecstatic look on Eros face showed, that he didn't care, as he watched the scene unfold before him.

After a while, the crowd dispersed, leaving behind a battered, broken and cumstained alicorn filly. Her sister on the other hand was achieving her final climax, as her small body was battered by this monster of a cock. Her belly bloating by the amount of cum that was pumped into her. Finally the wooden Eros pulled her from his still erect penis and then threw her, like a discarded toy, to the ground. The younger sister giggled madly, a blissful look on her face. She crawled over to her comatose sister and buried her muzzle in her sister cumstained snatch, greedily lapping up the remaining sperm.

Then the relief flickered and the scene reset. Everything was set to the beginning and began to play anew. Eros sighed in satisfaction, turned around and placed his posterior on the throne again. "This will probably entertain me for a while. And if I get tired of it, I can just carve a new relief.", he explained to the Corruptor. Then he cleared his throat. "Anyway, back to more serious matters."

"I have seen that you made some headway with Zexis while I was occupied. You secured Birdhoof’s loyalty and you've finally broken Scootaloo. Good, very good. She will be useful to us. Her type is exactly the kind of mare I like. Submissive and not afraid of a little bit abuse."

He crossed his arms and his cheerful demeanor vanished, as a picture of Zecora appeared on the screen. "That one however, proves to be quite a pain. I warned you about the capabilities of shamans, but at least you managed to interrupt her talk with that Applebloom filly. That could have been very dangerous if she had managed to get that girl on her side. On her own, she is isolated. But with somepony like Applebloom? The town would have been far more dangerous if she had brought Zecora’s suspicions to the wrong ears."

"So good job stopping that from happening. However it also means that Zexis will soon have his first serious confrontation and I have to be honest here. I don't know if he is up for it." He touched his chin in silent contemplation. "Well, it’s a good thing that you have connected to me now. This way you can strengthen him for the fight to come. But..." he tipped at the glass repeatedly, as he wanted to scold the drifters, "...let that be a lesson for you. Ignoring someone as dangerous as Zecora was an error, that could have been avoided. Try not to repeat it, okay? I don't care how you do it, but try to establish a spy network, so you have some eyes and ears in place when somepony catches you scent again."

After he was finished, he looked at the screen again, as question were popping up. "Oh right, forgot… you wanted to talk about something." He sighed, slightly annoyed, but complied. "Sure sure. Just make it brief, okay? I want get back to my entertainment." He waved his hand dismissively.

The screen flickers, and a beautiful maiden in a silk purple nightgown appears. She was sitting at a desk, books laying across with notes sticking out of them. Her hair was a deep black, with matching cat ears and tail, the latter twitching slightly as the only sign of her annoyance.

"Well, that event could have certainly gone better. We've been ignoring Zecora far too long. I'll have to make plans about her." Her annoyance fades as she turns to the screen.

"Greetings Lord Eros. I am Lady Catherine, though I hope you will forgive me for desiring to keep most of my identity a secret. I don't desire universe travelers to come pounding at my door one day. Anyway, my questions involve the history of Equestria. I am curious about the Crystal Empire. If my knowledge is correct, Sombra's reign was after Discord's so the Empire should still have been there at the time of your invasion. I'm guessing you had plans for it that never came to fruition and I wish to hear them. In fact, I'm interested in what you had in mind for Celestia as well.

"My second question is about Griffonstone or whatever the name of the griffon land is called. I swear the name changes every universe. So did you do anything to the griffons before your imprisonment?

"Anyway, my final question is Zebrica. You have already stated that you had corrupted it so my interest has been piqued. I'm aware this is a lot of questions but the author's comment on worldbuilding got me thinking, so feel free to answer only one of my questions. If you do, I suggest you tell us about Zebrica as that knowledge could help our Zebra avatar. Thank you for your time Eros."
The maiden, now known as Catherine, went back to her books as the screen flickered off.

"Well well, been quite some time since I saw a catgirl," Eros smile had a lustful touch touch to it, as he read the questions. "We don't have them on Mundus - that's name of this world, by the way - so I could only watch your particular race, as you lived your lives in other universes. Quite a tease, I can tell you."

"Anyway, on to your questions. You are right in your assumption about the empire. I had plans for it. However at the time Sombra took over, I had my hands full containing Discord’s chaos. You see, his appearance had caused a momentary truce between Celestia, Luna, and I. You can hardly fight a war when your weapons gain sentience, your soldiers begin to behave like sheep, and the entire landscape changes every two minutes. After the sisters had petrified him, the next two decades were spent repairing the damage he had done to the fabric of reality. After that we immediately picked up the war, especially from my side. I wanted to beat them quickly now that they had the Elements of Harmony."

"Honestly, I don't like delving into speculative scenarios. But, if I ever had won that war, I would have probably made two plans. One would have involved negotiations. Sombra was a powerful sorcerer, having achieved absolute mastery over dark magic. If he had more time on his hands, I'm sure he would have achieved the status of a Lesser God in time. Add to that his black heart and I would have felt pretty confident in drawing him to my side."

"If he had denied my offer, I would have gone with plan B. Conquest. Yes, thats sounds simple, but that's really about it. The Empire possesses the largest amount of crystals in all of Mundus, which makes it particularly important for anyone who dabbles in magic. Crystals are perfect storing devices and conduits of energy and that makes them irreplaceable in enchantments and the like. Not to mention the Vault of Amore, which houses a huge amount of artifacts. That was a price worth fighting over and I would have felt pretty secure going to war with him, considering that I would have the entire equestrian economy behind me, as well as my demonic armies and myself. I would have had a high probability of winning that war."

Eros scratches his chin, before frowning. "It never came to that of course, so the whole point is moot. If you want to know more about the Crystal Empire, its history, or Sombra, you should ask me another time. When I’m a better mood."

"Concerning your second question; I never had much involvement with the Griffon Aeries. There exist numerous over all of Mundus and they all are different from each other. With cultures as diverse as pony kind’s. Around three thousand years ago, griffons were the dominant species. Their Aeries had conquered half of the known world and were divided into three Aeries. Griffonstone was in the North, occupying the Goldbeak Mountains. They possessed the greatest wealth of them all, with deep mines driven into the mountains where they worked their slaves, mostly ponies. Their empire, which included what would later became Equestria, fell after five hundred years when the monster named Arimaspi broke into their palace, killed their king, and escaped with the Idol of Boreas. After that the Griffonstone Aerie broke apart into numerous smaller Aeries, who all vied for dominance."

"To the West, on the Continent of Lemur, was the Aerie Highwing. It was the most powerful one, with huge armies and swathes of steppe lands. Where the griffons could hunt and feed their population. Their society was built on the back of zebra slaves, who worked the fields and served as game for the griffons to hunt. Their Capital was on the lonely mountain Kimajajeu, from where they overlooked the entire steppe. However, that nation crumbled to dust as well. As it turned out, Kimajajeu was a dormant volcano and in 2300 B.E. (Before Equestria) it erupted, destroying Highwing and killing most of the griffons there. All that remained of them, were some outpost and smaller Aeries, but they fell when the Zebras saw their chances and rebelled. That was the point where Zebrica began its first steps as a nation."
"And the last Great Aerie is Loch Beack. It lies in the Old World and is the only aerie that survived the ravages of time. The griffons there settled in a mountainous and hilly region on the Island of Alba. Other than Griffonstone and Highwing, they abolished slavery after they lost a war with the native ponies of that island. The loss of that war also drove them to the north of that land and ironically, that secured their survival. They had not idol as keystone to their society or had to fear a slave-uprising. They were divided into clans and elected their king and this decentralisation made sure that a sudden crisis would not cause their aerie to collapse. They would continue warring with the southern pony kingdoms, but last I heard of them they were still independent."

"Still, the only griffons I interacted with were slave traders from the northern aeries. While Griffonstone had fallen from grace, the lesser aeries still continued their traditions and culture and as such had a thriving slave trade going, in which I participated, once I took over. Female griffons are maybe not as pretty as ponies, at least for my tastes, but they are resilient, tough and temperamental. So having one or two in my harem was a no-brainer. I saw a corruption of the aeries not necessary, as long as the slave trade went. Maybe at a later date, but at that point I was content on defiling Equestria."

Eros coughed. His horn glowed and from the cupboard a glass and a bottle of spiritwine flew into his hands. He poured himself a drink and cleared his throat. "Now, Zebrica....that was my first project. Giving the story behind it proper respect would mean telling my origins as well. But that would be too early, I think. Once Zexis is more established and I feel that my investment in you guys was a secure bet, I will probably consider it, but not now."

"What I can tell, is it´s history, before I showed up. As I already mentioned, the Fall of Highwing, caused a widespread rebellion among the zebra slaves. Unable to contain this uprising, the griffons soon either retreated into their aeries, to weather the storm, or were overrun. After that war was over, the zebras united under Zara Shuku, a powerful shamaness who in turn crowned herself High Priestess of the Spirits. The Theocracy of Zebrica was born."

"For a while, everything went well. The young nation was thriving, new alchemical arts were discovered and the commune with the spirits of the lands was discovered, which empowered the priesthood, as they were able to enrichen the soil and bring life-giving rain. That early golden age continued for about two hundred years, give or take. Until, one day, Zara Shuku - who at that point, achieved immortality - disappeared. No zebra today knows where she has gone to. Some say she has wandered over to the Spirit Plane, others say she grew weary and disappointed over her fellow zebras. Fact is, Zebrica had lost it´s leader and protector."

"And enemies soon appeared at their gates. A upstart young nation of sphinxes, called Kemet, soon attacked them with an army of chariots and undead, under the leadership of a Godking. The priesthood tried to resist them, but failed. The first war forced them to pay tribute in form of gold and slaves. The second war took half their territory from them. And the third war reduced them to a single city. When the fourth war arrived, it seemed like that would be the end of Zebrica."

"But they were lucky, in a sense. First, a valiant young hero arrived, who overthrew the incompetent priesthood, and installed himself as king. His name was Zanjawe and he managed to fend off the invading sphinxes, by assassinating their Godking. But that alone, would have saved them, if it were not for the foolishness of priests of Kemet. In their desperation to save their ruler, they bound his soul to his dead body, essentially reviving him as an undead mummy. But by doing that, they tore open the barrier between life and death. Soon their kingdom was ravaged by the dead and torn apart. Amidst all that chaos, Zanjawe lead his small army and reclaimed a large portion of zebra land."

Eros took a sip from the glass. "The undead plague would eventually pass, but Kemet was split into a lower kingdom and a upper kingdom and would reunited for the next four hundred years. Zanjawe however, would soon be assassinated himself and his title fell into the hands of his brother. The zebras would fall apart into numerous tribes, with the zebrican king only having nominal rulership over them."
He finished the glass and put it back in the cupboard. "And that is more or less it. What happened after my defeat, I don't know of course. That you will have to look up yourself with Zexis. I would, however, advise against that, because there is no telling,what Zebrica is today and we don´t know what the disparities of his memories and the reality would do to him."

"Any more questions?"

Hm. Zexis didn't want to tackle the issue of Timber Wolves yet... but Zecora apparently has some pull over them. Makes sense, how else would she be able to live in that forest if unless she has a way to stay safe amongst the many beasts?
No matter. We'll sort it out. Eventually.

Eros! I would have words with you!

First, are there any descendants of your time as Equestria's Premier Patron of Perversion? Looking back at your reign, most mares ended up very, very pregnant. I know of daemons and fiends who nurture pet families, sometimes with a drop of their servants' or even their own blood mixed in. Is there somepony like that in Equestria still? Are there any descendants of the founders you corrupted? We might find ways to activate whatever taint you left them with.

Related to that, you claimed your magic played a part in turning the Everfree into what it is now. If that's true, how much of it was seeded by you? Can you think of ways to capitalise on this fact? If that idiotic Draconequus did one thing right, it was to increase his power by letting it twist and corrupt his domain.

On to other topics... Changelings. They feed on love, and I bet they could easily feed on lust and domination/submission. They're your creations, aren't they? You had a hand (or another bodypart) in their genesis, I'd bet. Am I right? They're still running rampart across this world. They could see your new creation as a threat. We need to know what you can tell us about them.

Lastly, a personal matter.

There is a world parallel to this. Or perhaps it's a dimension, rather than a world. Somepony, an old ally of the princesses whom you might have known in person, created a doorway there: Starswirl the Bearded.

He took something from me. Three somethings, to be exact. I may want them back at some point. And I know for a fact that he put them in this little rubbish bin dimension of his. So, what do you know of mirror portals to different worlds? Specifically, to retrieve something from them?

That's all for now. Perhaps I should visit you, some day. We could play a game. I should warn you, though—I don't lose. The only being to whom I lose, neither of us wants involved in this.

Eros grumbled, as he saw the screen fill with more lines. "You really want to keep me from enjoying myself....fine, fine..." He shifted on his throne, trying to find a more comfortable position. He finally settled for sitting sideways with his legs dangling over the carved image of Celestia's crying face and his left hand idly groping the depiction of Luna's butt. "Can't really deny the Four Riders, can I?"

"I am pretty sure, that there exist somewhere on Mundus someone with traces of my blood in their veins. Gods can't really reproduce easily, you know. It takes a lot of time and effort to produce a child, even more so if a God is female. Luckily I had lots of opportunities and my semen was always potent, for a God. So yes, I had a lot of children. Usually they would succubi or incubi, higher rank of course, and join my armies. In some cases however, the child would be mortal in appearance. These descendants were usually way more gifted in physical department of their genders and with a high libido. However they were still more independent and, while they had preference for perversion, usually choose to live outside my influence."

"In Equestria there shouldn´t exist someone with my blood in them. Celestia had one thousand years to find and eradicate all my traces and descendants and knowing her, she didn't stop just with Equestria. Knowing that, I would say that there are probably only in Zebrica and maybe some in the Old World with my blood. In the former I ensured, that they would form the elite, so that my influence over their culture would remain. I don't know how successful that has been, though."

"The Changelings are not my creations. I don't know who brought into being. They believe it was the Great Swarm. A Hive Mind behind the stars, that spat them out, leaving them on Mundus. Their mythology describes it not favourably, but sees it as the ultimate goal. Every Changeling Queen wants to unite the Swarms and make them into another Great Swarm, elevating her to a status close to an Overdeity. But their infighting prevents that. And of course Changeling Kings are completely opposed to that, seeking a symbiotic relationship with Mundus or just want to be left alone, like the ones in Zirrbabwe."

"Now the Everfree is the product of my war with Celestia and Luna. I told you, that the two had escaped my conquest of the Three Tribes and the corruption of The Founders. They hid in the Everfree Forest and build their Castle there. As mentioned before, they attracted refugees and formed a small nation. When our war began, the Everfree was an old, but peaceful forest. And the Sisters had made sure that the will of forest was on their side. Any attempt I made on entering these woods would be met. Not only by their soldiers but also by the spirits of the land, as well. And they could attack my borders from it at any time."

"So naturally, I began corrupting it. Since the Will was peaceful and desired harmony, it was on their side. I needed to make it angry and evil and I thought it would then choose mine. Foolish, in hindsight. I started by having orgies at it fringes, defiling virgins with my demons. Then I let them give birth at the roots of trees and baptized the infants with my corruption, letting the magic and the fresh violated souls seep into the ground. The Sisters fought me at every turn of course, but I made my way slowly into the forest, inch by inch. After a decade of that, I successfully corrupted a large portion of the forest."

"As it turned out however, the Will did not choose my side. Instead it lashed out against everything that it deemed foreign. Animals turned feral and monsters began to dwell under its leaves. Vines began to rape any passersby and nymphes began pull soldiers into the trees to devour them. Not all was lost, as the Sisters lost their protection of the Everfree and despite the added dangers, I could finally engage them in open combat. The war took up in pace and the myriads of spells from either side twisted the forest even more."
Eros looked at the ceiling, as he remembered these days. The screaming soldiers, the cackling demons and songs of priests of either side. The blood that seeped into the earth, sucked up greedily by the surrounding trees, who loomed over the battlefields, like angry giants. The flames, the light and darkness. Celestia and Luna, in armor battling against him, trading blow for blow. Spell for Spell.

He gritted his teeth. "Next question...", he growled.

Interesting as always.

Eros, I must ask, what is it you favor as a general tactic, grabbing the light in the room and ensuring all see you as you work them right in front of their nose, to simply keep to the shadows and move things, or do you like to play the middle and shift the attention to a pawn, while you play the game, Or do you have your own ideal tactics that I can't think of or explain? Information is always a worthwhile goal.
If you don't mind another one while i'm at it, what do you think of the current achievements of your Avatar, do you think he'd be further along, is he right on track, or do you think he is being too slow?

"Well, I think you already have a pretty good idea, on how I operate. But, for your sake, I will summarize it. When I start my conquest, I usually do it by infiltrating myself. I get into a position, where I have access to the higher echelons of society and then start by corrupting them slowly. Once I achieved that, I will use my new allies and servant to establish a base of operation and bring in my demons. After that I delegate, crush the remaining opposition and expand. It´s a mix really. Broad things like warfare or economy I leave to my servants. But delicate matters, or things that are high priority, I usually take into my own hands."

"Zexis progress is satisfactory at the moment. He is staying under radar and despite some hiccups has managed himself well. But he hasn't faced any serious opposition yet, so we don´t know how he will handle himself there. I guess, all I can do is wait."

One orange and one blue light come on highlighting a figure in shadow who sighs.

"These recent events in the Everfree are a cause for concern. Sadly this may be beyond our ability to deal with right now. More consideration will be needed.

"Regardless, greetings once more, Lord Eros. I hope you are... as well as can be expected. To business."

He sighs for a moment before slamming his hands to the desk before him. "What in the name of all things holy happened back there? Can you give any possible explanation for these... ghosts!? Apparitions? What have you? Or at least a manner in which to fight them? We were lucky we had Applebloom's staff handy! Who are you going to call for this sort of thing!?"

He sighs and moves his hand to straighten something at his neck. Pulling his chair forwards a slight outline of his business suit can be seen. "I apologize for my outburst, but I am always... annoyed by something I cannot fight, directly or not. Discord is the most notable issue, but these ghosts concern me greatly.

"Another question to ask is what was Celestia and Luna like before your... incursion? Are these purity laws something they would have come up with on their own before you arrived? I think it's plausible that her... overly strict laws might be a result. It is very possible you have made her afraid.

"Lastly, if we can corrupt Ponyville and keep it under your thumb what are your plans? To move onto another city like Manehatten.. Or move on Canterlot? I imagine striking the capital before we are ready to be a folly. Not that we are ready to keep Ponyville in our grasp, regardless."

The lights shut off.

"We... will be watching."

Eros clenched his fists and fire was behind his eyes, when the Purity Laws were mentioned. "Don't remind me...this fucking bitch...." He fumed and his leg kicked out, hitting the relief of Celestia in the face. "The Purity Laws are everything I despise. Restrictive, prude and holy. Pressing an entire culture for a millennia into abstinence...."

His telekinesis grabbed a table and flung at the far side of the wall. The furniture crashed against the unyielding stone and broke apart. A chair followed.

Eros breathed heavily, before closing his eyes. His magic grabbed the broken pieces and with simple gesture he molded the wood back together, repairing the damage. The God of Corruption took a deep breath and relaxed again.

"To make it simple. Yes, it is more then likely that my actions caused these laws. Before that, Celestia was revered as a Goddess of Sunlight and Fertility. And that meant, that it was expected of her to be promiscuous. She didn't have a harem, like me. But she had lovers, and even got pregnant one time."

"It is most likely that me defiling her sister may have caused her to abandon that side of her. Or, the War of the Two Sisters left a greater impact, I don't know. Fact is, after my defeat, she took on the role of Princess of the Sun and - unofficially - Purity. And Purity cannot be defiled by sexual desires."

He looked at the last question and shrugged his shoulders. "I have no clue. Where you go depends on what circumstances pop up. Strategically it would be best to widen your influence over Ponyville, once the opportunity arises. Having your hands in numerous locations means you have bases to fall back on if things turn sour. And allies are always a good idea."

The mist rolls back revealing an emerald color dragoness with jade colored breast scales waking though one of the entry ways of the castle.

“Wow, that is unexpected.” The dragoness sighs “To be honest that was dumb, actually getting into a figh”

“I’m home!!!!!!” A shout echoes throughout the caverns. Turning her head, she see the blue dragon with white chest scales, entering the caves. Filing into the hallway numerous guards enter in, smiles on their faces. A large nude black dragon, with grey scales bows to the dragon.

“My Lord Fimbulwitner! Welcome home.” The dragon speaks.

“Yes, Welcome home.” The green dragoness speaks as she traces a claw of the Ice Dragon Lord’s bulging bicep, while the other grips on the firm blue ass cheeks.

“Rally it in for a moment Fluorspar.” The blue dragon’s baritone voice trembles, his cock starting to rise.

“There was no one remotely sexy at the monastery. I was able to help them embrace the ways of Eros, but I’m not into saggy breast and aging lips. And definitely not limp dicks.”

The black dragon’s eye ridges raise, “Odd choice of words. Is there a reason to why to added the last part?”

Sighing Fimbulwinter answers, “Obsidian, it’s because of.”

A loud crash echoes through the hall as an adult dragon comes chagrining in. His green scales are the same color as the eyes, as he is opening gawking at the guards and drooling. A huge tree being held in the dragon’s claw.

“Him.” Fimbulwinter sighs. “Apparently, he loves the other side of the nest and went to the monastery to cure himself. Once he fully came to terms what he wanted sexually, he couldn’t stop drooling at me, or beg or my cock.” The blue drake shakes his head. “Obsidian, please make sure this dragon waits in one of the rooms, while I talk to Fluorspar.”

Feeling the dragoness’s claws squeeze in on his ass, the drake shivered. Desire growing in his eyes, but determination keeping the passion from growing out of control, “Sorry Fluorspar, no sex yet. I need to talk to you and a guest about certain issues, and then I need to hear the captain’s report.”

The claw leaves his ass, as the green dragoness pouts indignantly, “Are you sure, there not enough time for a quickie.”

“If I get this all done within an hour, I’m throwing a whole wide castle orgy.” The Northern Dragon Lord speaks with conviction.

The green dragoness smiles. “Alright, let’s go into a private room, and get this done quickly.”

“Thanks.” The blue dragon lord sighs. “Obsidian, place that dragon into a guest room and lock it, so he doesn’t get out, but let him keep that tree he has dropped on the ground.

“Tree?” The dragoness smirks.

“He uses it as a dildo.” Fimbulwinter sighs.

The green dragoness and the blue dragon enter a room down the hallway while listening the green dragon speaking to the guards, “So you guys must be the guards. I’ve been a naughty drake, anyone here want to punish me.”

As the two enter the room, Fluorspar starts laughing. “HA HA HA HA What? HA Ha What did you do to that poor drake back there?” Fluorspar finally stops laughing but continues to snicker.

Sighing the dragon lord speaks, “That dragon, Merry Beryl, yeah that’s his name, really got me mad.” A sad look crosses his face, “Do you remember? I said that I lived at the monastery, that is where I learned how to flesh craft.”

“Yeah, I remember,” the dragoness smirks, “You said you had to go there, to get better at it, so you can finally give Tiger Agate a dick, just like Eros, told you.” The dragoness smiles, though while subtly jutting out her tits so Flimbulwinter can see their size and perkiness. Fimbulwinter’s cock starts to raise as his gaze soon locks on to those f size tits.

“Yes. I left that monastery after I found a book on Eros, and that book was burned by those dragons. It was that dragon, Merry, who ordered for its burning and even did it himself. Now I was naturally pissed at him. He robbed me of more information about Eros, when I was younger. But when I was corrupting him, finding out why he tried so hard to be celibate, I found out he burned the book because he loves the other side of the nest. He wanted to be fucked by manly dragons with big cocks and muscles, but he was so deep in the denial that he would have done just about anything to get rid of that idea, especially anything to sex in general. When I found this out, got it directly from his mind, he would even admit it verbally, I was so mad, that some of my anger may have affected his corruption. I honestly think I got him a torture or punishment fetish now.”

“How can you be so sure.” Fluorspar asks curiously.

Fimbulwinter’s gaze returns to her face with a deadpan stare. “You try having a dragon appear in your bed every night since his corruption begging for his punishment, while thrusting his ass in your face! If it was a dragoness I would have taken him. You know I personally only find dragonesses sexy.”

Fluorspar lightly jab, “So you’re sure you don’t want to try the other side of the nest.”

Fimbulwinter smirks, “You know I personally don’t care who a dragon or dragoness wants to fuck. It can be male, female, a family member, a rock, even a polar manticore if it fits your fancy, but if I don’t want to join in on that sex personally don’t force me to participate.”

Fluorspar asks, “So what are you going to do with him?”

Fimbulwinter scratches the back of his head, “I was honestly hoping you know one of our soldiers or nobles that prefer that side of the nest. Otherwise I don’t know what to do.”

“Aren’t you lucky, I threw my lot in with you all those years ago.” The green dragoness smirks, “I happen to know that Zircon Core, yeah the Court Sorcerer don’t make that face at me, likes either side of the nest.”

“Really, but I’ve only see him with dragoness, he even participated in several orgies and he fucked dragonesses, I’m sure of that.”

“Trust, me.” Fluorspar repeats, “He hides his sexual preferences from before you came because of how Permafrost would be mad when a dragoness refused his advances because she only wanted another dragoness. Sure, he got scolded by his father, but he always had it out for dragons who liked the other side of the nest, because of that. So, Zircon kept it secret, and when you took over, with your countless orgies with dragonesses, he feared you would be the same.”

“You know that is ridiculous, I personally don’t mind if he fucks, or gets fucked by a dick or cunt, just don’t bring me into it.

Fluorspar gently rubs Fimbulwinter’s massive pecks, “Good, Libra, the goddess of fairness, will be happy to hear that, I’m sure. She may even give you a blessing as well, besides from Eros.”

“Eros, oh yeah! He’s listening in on this, isn’t he?” Fimbulwinter’s eye ridges raise as he realizes who is watching.”

Kneeling into a prayer Fimbulwinter speaks, “Eros, God of Corruption and Lust, thanks for the blessing upon my kingdom, that I may be able to bring dragons back towards our true natures, and not those of the sun tyrant. May my pleas reach you as I ask you about the concern I have for my kingdom.”

“Firstly I must apologize for not corrupting Tiger agate yet, but I needed more skill. I have now gotten that, and will start on her corruption.”

“Do you approve of my idea for Merry Beryl. I hope that it may actually prove useful and stop rebellions from using dragons who prefer the same sex, since they would learn I don’t have a problem with that. If you know of a different path for me to take, with concerns for this dragon please tell me.”

“Finally, as you may have observed, I was able to allow the dragons of the Fang Monastery to embrace their sexual natures and traits that they have bottled up for so long. They are extremely grateful for this liberation. Though one dragon, one of my old mentors, asked in earnest if you Eros have had any dealings with dragons in the past. He, and I, don’t care if it is with the dragons of the south, east, north, or the lost dragons of the west. We both would like to know your dealing with dragons if you have had any.”

“Thanks for your blessing, I hope that I may continue to have your blessing as I help untie my kingdom and bring dragons back into your hoard.

The blue dragon stands up, and looks over at the tranquil sitting dragoness. “Fluorspar. Call the other dragoness, we are having an orgy in thirty minutes.”

The mist closes in as the two dragons leave the room, both are moving quickly and dripping with signs of arousal at the idea of a full castle orgy.

Finally a smile crept up Eros´ lips. He leaned back and watched the scene, that unfolded before his eyes. For the first time, he actually seemed engaged and he considered his thoughts for the next question, holding his chin and closing his eyes and he thought of an answer.
"Fimbulwinter, I can call myself fortunate for having such a loyal servant. It is truly invigorating to see how you handle your subject. If I were able to actually bless you, I would do it and I assure you that it is one of the first thing I plan to do, after I am free. Such diligence deserves a reward, after all."

"Your actions on Merry Beryll I support. While I myself do not really care for homosexuality, it is still important to enable it for your citizens. Not fetish, no sexual desire should be barred and it is one of my first imperatives to enable the satisfactions of one lust, no matter what it´s target is." He looked at the Corruptor, his eyes flashing to a picture of dismantled corpses and broken horns. "Within in reason, of course."

"Now, the corruption of the Fang Monastery is good news indeed. These old scale scratchers were too stuffed up anyway. Your question: Now, my dealings with dragons were limited. At the time I walked Mundus, the western and southern dragons very much locked into their war with Tiamat, and I kept away from that. With the East I had not contact and I didn't want to trigger a confrontation with the Dragon Lord who ruled there. So most of my interactions with your race were with the Northern Kingdom, but even then only with some individual dragons. The Ice Dragons were always stubborn and proud and I didn't want to spend the considerable effort in trying to corrupt them, so I mostly let them be, except for trade and the occasional mercenary."

Eros voice trailed off for a moment, as a thought entered his mind. "This makes your corruption of them even more astonishing. In that regard you have made me curious, Fimbulwinter. How did you actually manage to become the Dragon Lord of the North?"

The translucent being can be seen writing on some paper before turning to you and speaking.

“Wow that dragon was actually right about the colors, I’m impressed.”

“Now onto the questions, “

“This may be unnecessary to ask but just to clarify, is necromancy illegal and if it is how is it illegal? Is it when used a ticket straight to jail or the every sane reaction of an immediate execution?”
“Is our corruption like chaos corruption, in the way that it causes mutations over time?”
“Will the type of event change if we don’t attend to it and something in the same aria comes up again? As an example to clarify the question, will an event in friendship castle change from green to purple if not attended to or will those be of the green variant every time?”
“Why didn’t we get one of those law books the day we arrived like Thunderlane did?”
"Is there a black market or something that fills the demand for sex products and prostitution?"
“That is all I wish to know for now that hasn’t been asked by others yet. Now to start planning for the fight with Zecora.” The being turn back to what he was doing and starts writing again as your vision turns to black.

The Corruptors screen was filled with question in a matter of seconds. Eros tried to keep track, before finally shaking his head. "Breathe for fuck sake!", he said, as more lines appeared. It didn't stop, and he threw his hands up. "Fine, but I will make it short. Wasted enough time, already!"

"Kemet's fate should give you a good idea as to why necromancy is outlawed. If someone attempts it and/or succeeds, they are either killed or, in Equestria's case, thrown into Tartarus. No trial, nothing. Nobody wants another Grogar."

"No, it isn't. Lust corruption affects the mind and twist it to fit the newfound desires. Mutation can only occur if someone forces through fleshcraft or extensive use of magic."

"The events colour depends on the skills that are demanded. That can change, but doesn't always happen. It´s very much a matter of chance."

"I don't know, why you didn't get the books. For that matter, you also didn't get a party from Pinkie Pie, right? Wonder why..."

"A black market is most likely. Celestia cannot control all. If I have to take a guess, I would say that it comes from Manehattan, given the cities more lax attitude, when it comes to sex."

After that barrage of answers, Eros clapped his hand together. "Right, that's about enough. I satisfied your curiosity. Any more question have to wait for later. It's time for you to strengthen my avatar and prepare for the battle with Zecora." His eyes got a dangerous glimmer, as he pushed the corresponding buttons on the Corruptor. "If you win against her, I will leave the matter how to deal with her to your discretion. Just remember that she is a headstrong mare, and that will make a corruption long and difficult." A wicked smile crept up his lips. "But she will make herself great as a sacrifice. Should bring a good ability, as well. Of course, it is your decision, in the end."

He waved his hand and dismissed the Drifters, turning his attention back to his wooden relief, where Celestia was once again raped by the crowd of ponies. He absentmindedly fondled her depiction on the throne.

Author's Note

Wow, that was a suprising amount of worldbuilding I was able to do in this Interlude. Thank you for the opportunities, dear readers. I hope you enjoyed this tidbits and snippets about Equestria, Mundus and so forth. If you have even more question, I would suggest writing them down, so you have them ready, because it will now be at least quite some time, before I will make another Interlude.

A few things, I want to clarify: This whole story takes place on Mundus, which is a planet not unlike Earth. Equestria is placed on the western continent, where USA would be. The Old World is Europe and Asia, while Lemur includes Africa and the Middle East. I will add more details into the EXTRA for you.

Other than that, I will add the new traits into Extra Chapter. There you can also read up on the details, what all the traits entail, if you want to cast your vote. Procedure as always. Say what traits you want to purchase or upgrade and the ones with most votes win.

Have fun and Happy Easter. :twilightsmile:

Name: Zexis Chikelu
Gender: male
Race: Zebra
Skills: Smooth Talking, Alchemist: Apprentice, Applebucking Kicks (basic)
Traits: huge cock, big balls, high affinity to element (Plants), dominant, charismatic, intelligent, Affinity for Alchemy (Potions and Powder), Libido, strong, handsome, Resistance to magic (Dark), fast, tough
Abilities: Everystallion

The human sat on a shattered wall in a ruined city. His jeans were torn and his jacket was covered in dirt and dried blood. He idly juggled dried out human skulls as he waited. He wasn't very good at it, and grumbled as he bent to pick up the skulls once again. A faint ding sounded in the air, and with a smile he gestured to a holographic screen that appeared before him.

"About bloody time. Right, back to the action, and it's time for a fight. And now is the time to not fuck around. Zecora is a magic specialist. And the best way to fuck those people up is to punch them in the face. Yeah, beating them with superior magic is possible, but we don't have the time or ability to outmatch Zecora in that way.

So my votes are for

Tough: We'll need to be able to take a hit.

Dexterous: To help us get close, dodge attacks, and grapple.

Affinity to Martial Arts: So we actually know how to fight, rather then using a fucking farming technique in battle.

Affinity to Plants: Upgrading this for a forest fight should help.

Fast: Worst case scenario we need this to run away. More importantly, I simply don't want to store a point that can be spent before a boss battle.

As for the fight itself, well we're kinda committed to a specific course. Big Mac is in a rage, and we need to keep him angry. He can use brute strength to try and break through. Bird Hoof hasn't proven entirely useless, keep him on telekinetic assistance in keeping those Timberwolves and spirits off your backs. And we've got the tough part. We need to follow Big Mac's berserk rush and make sure he doesn't get overwhelmed, and take out Zecora. Once she falls we win. But to make her fall, well I'm betting she's possessed by some spirits or hyped up on a drug. We'll need to force her unconscious through brute force, since we lack any other options.

If we do win? Then we've got options. First off I say we sacrifice her. Zecora is far too dangerous to leave in even a corrupted mind. Plus she's not exactly a public persona. If she disappears, her absence won't necessarily be noticed. And the bonus would be quite nice. But we've got another opportunity. It might be risky, but if we can convince Big Mac to be the one to rape her, well commits someone to you as making them guilty of a crime. We'll have a secret to hold over him, he'll almost be forced to come aboard our plans, and he may even embrace it willingly. It'll give him some relief at least. And Big Mac would be a fantastic ally to have.

The mist rolls back to reveal a blue dragon, with silver chest scales reviewing a flat crystal with runes etched in it. Pulling out a lab of crystal the dragon’s claws etch runes into the crystal, and then comparing the slab with the ones on the table.

“Zelix, it looks like you are in quite a pickle. You are going to be fighting your first boss. Unfortunately, it looks like Zecora has company, and not of the good type.”

The Ice Dragon Lord scratches his jaw ridges saying, “If I was alone, against a powerful mage, and several Polar Manticore, I would take out the mage controlling the manticores.” Swirling his claws a small figure of Zecora, Zelix, and 4 timber wolves appear. Normally it would be suicide, but I would recommend, if you can break the control Zecora has on the timberwolves, or can carry fire, that you should take on Zecora and the Timberwolves head on.”

The figures move so Zelix is facing four timberwolves and Zecora is waiting for him on the other side of the timberwolves. “It seems suicide, but it could lead to a good distraction. With the wolves and Zecora facing you, they won’t see the trap.” A figure of Big Mac appears behind Zecora. “While I’m betting that we can’t use that pendant, I’m betting Big Mac can, so take Applebloom’s amulet, give it to Mac, and then let him at Zecora. The pendant will block the ghost, and either Zecora will be forced to fight Big Mac, or be knocked out before the battle begins. Maybe give him a hormone pill so he doesn’t listen if Zecora tries to say she didn’t hurt Apple Bloom.” The figure of Big Mac jumps on the Zecora crystal, shattering it. The timberwolf’s figures shatter as well.

“It would be interesting if you could get Big Mac to ‘teach’ Zecora a ‘lesson’ just like Mac wanted to do with his sisters. I wouldn’t be opposed to that. Afterward, it would be to keep Zecora knocked out, until corruption is done, and give Apple Bloom some tea that makes her think Zecora hurt her. We can’t leave that loose end, and Big Mac coming after you Zelix.” The figures of Zelix and Big Mac look at each other, before both shattering.”

At the edge of the Everfree Forest

Zexis stood close to a young oak, his arms crossed, while his mind raced. The issue with Zecora needed to be resolved quickly. Not only because she clearly wanted him dead, but also because every second he wasted, she would become stronger. No doubt, that she was strengthening her enchantments right now. He couldn´t let her become too powerful, so a quick response was crucial.

He looked down on his body. He had taken the time for some preparations. He changed his casual attire to something more useful in combat. Ponyville didn´t have an armory, so he had to make due with a heavy leatherjacket over his shirt. His jeans was switched to worktrousers and he carried a pouch with him, at his belt. He knew, that his limited skill in alchemy could not stand up against Zecora. But then again, he didn´t plan on using it against her during the fight.

He looked up, as he heard hoofsteps approach and saw Birdhoff. The fat unicorn was sweating with a mixture of fearful anticipation and physical exertion. Still, the look on his face was grim and determined. Truly, a far cry from the disgusting coward he had been a few weeks ago. It wasn´t so that he wasn´t frightened. But he seemed to have pushed his worries aside for this one time.

"I talked with Redheart.", he said. "Gave her the powder and your instructions. She will make sure, that Applebloom will confirm our story. Once she wakes up."

Zexis nodded. Wether they won today or not, it wouldn´t matter, when the little Apple-bitch told everypony what really happened. To ensure, that this wouldn´t happen, Redheart would use the Suggestion Powder, to convince her to keep quiet over certain details and lie over others. The Powder couldn´t change memories, sadly. But Zexis was confident, that the right suggestion on a young impressionable mind, would work just as well. Something like: "If they found out about necromancy, that would be bad. You must not mention that, for the sake of Zecora" or "That was dangerous. You owe Zexis your life." For the start, it should reduce the risk of getting caught. He could make adjustments later on.

Zexis noticed the wooden moon-trinket in Birdhoofs hands. The talisman. They had taken it from Applebloom, as soon as they got out of the Forest. Strangely enough, when Zexis had touched it, he had felt great discomfort. Not something tangible, just a sense of great unease. Because of that he had given it to Birdhoof, who had less problems with it. Strange, but it was their only reliable counter against the ghosts.

"You got the pills?"

Birdhoof nodded. "Yup, the girls were really...helpful." He pulled out a bottle. "Put them in the tea, like you said." He looked skeptical at the red liquid. "You really think two whole pills is a good idea? I mean, remember what happened to Roseluck."

Zexis waved his hand dismissively. "Big Mac has strong body. He can take it. We also need to break down his inhibitons further. Don´t want him to have second thoughts in the middle of the battle."

"Yeah, but...what if he kills her? That would be bad, right?"

"Leave that to me." Zexis took the bottle. The trick with the hormone pills was to use them at the right time. If somepony was angry, they would remove the barriers towards that particular emotion, if they were ingested at that time. If he was horny, that the same applied as well. They were perfect tools for adjusting a personality, if you were careful with your timing. Zexis wanted to change the calm, quiet Big Mac into an angry, lecherous stallion. Far better suited for his plans and much more inclined to agree with his...goals. They already got the angry part down.

And speaking of Tirek, there he came. The red stallion carried a large woodchopper axe with him. It seemed to be custom-made, because for everypony else it would had been way too big. He wore thick jeans and a close-fitting shirt. His expression was dark.

"Good. Now that everypony is here, whe should talk tactics.", said Zexis, as Big Mac came closer. "For the beginning, I take the vanguard. Birdhoof is support and Big Mac stands by."

The earth-pony snorted and clenched his fist. "Fuck that. I will not wait. I will smash that bitches muzzle in.", he growled.

Zexis raised an eyebrow. Apparently, Big Mac anger was greater than he anticipated. "Don´t worry, you will. But we can´t do this carelessly. This is Zecora we are talking about and we are challenging her on her hometurf." He kneeled down, took a stick and began to write on the ground.

"She made it clear, that she is, for some reason, pissed at me. We should use that to our advantage." He drew a small zebra, that was standing in front of a pack of Timberwolves and ghosts, who were guarding a small Zecora. "I will serve as the bait, drawing her attention. She will most likely attack me." He drew an arrow that pointed at him. Then he added an unicorn-horn behind him. "Birdhoff will help me hold the line. Once we´ve done that, you will attack her from the side." His stick scratched in the dirt and one could see an apple charging Zecoras position. "We have little chance against her, other than a suprise attack. So we will use your strength to burst through her defences and knock her out, before she can retaliate."

Big Mac looked at the picture below him and his brows furrowed. "Fine...", he said, "What kind of defences?"

Zexis looked at Birdhoof, and the stallion pulled the talisman from his neck and gave it to Big Mac. "That was something Applebloom was carrying with her. It saved us against the ghosts. It should help you." he explained. Then the zebra gave him the bottle. "Drink this. I mixed in some herbs, that might help, if she tries anything with poison and such..." The lie came easy to him. In truth, there was no such thing as an antidote that could provide resistance against poison. They were only useful after one had been afflicted. Actual immunity against drugs and poison could only be acquired through careful training and repeated exposure. But he didn´t need to tell Big Mac that.

The big stallion took the talisman and looked at it. "I remember, when she made this. Said that Princess Luna had taught her how to do it. In a dream." He took a big sip from the tea. "She was so proud, when she was finished..."

Zexis nodded solemnly. He got up again and dusted off his knees. "And her efforts will not go to waste.", he said. His gaze followed the sun, as she sank towards the horizon. "We should get moving. We don´t want to do this in the dark."

They turned around and walked into the Everfree.

...

"So, you mentioned something about educating your sisters?", asked Zexis, as they walked down the dark path into the forest.

Macintosh scratched his head, as he shouldered his axe. "Just something I said in the heat of the moment."

But Zexis was undeterred. "But still. What do you mean with that? I thought Applejack takes charge on the farm?"

Big Mac looked at him, with a raised eyebrow. "Do you really think, thats the best time to discuss that?"

"Might as well." Zexis shrugged. "After all, we don´t know, if we will succeed. And a little bit of small talk goes a long way to relaxing. No use in getting all tense before a fight."

"I don´t know...how do we even find her?"

Zexis clenched his teeth. That guy was stubborn! Did the pills not work? "Don´t worry about that. I believe she will find us. Now please answer my question." The last sentence came out a little more forceful than he wanted, but they were running out of time. He wanted to get Big Mac in the right mindset before the confrontation. After all, if stallion lost his temper and accidentally killed the shamaness...that would be bad...

The farmer looked away, trying to avert Zexis eyes. He nervously stroked the shaft of his axe. "I-I..just..." He stopped again.

"Hey. Hey!" Zexis grabbed by the shoulder, not easy to do with somepony, who was almost two head bigger than you. "We are in this together. I will not judge you about this." He pointed to Birdhoof, who wisely decided to keep himself out of the conversation. "I helped him, and you know he is...was a creep. I came into contact with things, that would be considered scandalous here in Equestria. There is little you can say, that would shock me." He looked the stallion deep into the eyes and placed a reassuring smile on his lips. "I just want to help you. As a friend."

That seemed to do the trick. Big Mac swallowed, looked down for a second and then came to a decision. "I...think that Applejack is not suited for leading." He fidgeted, looked over to Zexis for reaction, before continuing: "In truth...I think, she is not even that good in taking care of her family." He pointed at the talisman. "Letting Applebloom study under Zecora was her idea. She is...responsible for what happened to her. The decline of the farm...that´s also her fault. She doesn´t ask for help or take on a loan. She is stubborn, prideful and....and....doesn´t respect me."

And that was the core of the problem! Zexis withheld a triumphant grin. Instead he nodded. "True, I think it would help a lot, if she would listen to you more often."

Big Mac frowned. "Not only that. She should...j-just shut up, for fucks sake!" His breath quickened. The pills had kicked in. "Always prancing around, thinking she can solve problems by working a little bit harder. Not caring for the consequences or the problems she causes for us, when she is leaving on some fucking adventure again. That I have to pick up the pace, take care of Applebloom, who doesn´t give a shit and gets into to trouble every single, fucking TIME!" Sweat beaded down his forehead and his face tensed up.

Zexis saw, that he was getting somewhere. He however needed to steer Big Mac away from his frustation. He needed to make him think on his darkest fantasies. On his plans...

"But you still haven´t answered my question: What do you plan to do with them, once we have taken care of Zecora?"

Big Mac hesitated again, but then his lips contorted into a snarl. "I will take charge, thats what. No more Mr. Nice-Stallion. No more Eyyyup! Applebloom will stay at home and behave like a Tartarus-damned little sister for once and Applejack will suck it up and let me handle things. I am the oldest. I should take care of the family."

Zexis nodded. Good, they were getting closer. "But she will not accept that. She is stubborn after all. But I got an idea. A solution for your problem."

Big Mac looked at him curiously. He still breathed hard, but Zexis knew he had his attention. "Spit it out..."

"Back in my homeland, we have a clear...system. Everyzebra knows their place and their duties. Personal ambition are not so important as order. In order to ensure that, one must make clear who is superior. Why not do that with your family?" He stepped closer, almost whispering into Macintosh´s ear. "We both know that you are clearly better than your sisters. They just don´t know that yet. You live in a society, where mares take up all the important positions. Princesses, guardians, element-bearers. Of course they assume, that they stand above you." He could feel the stallion shake in anger over that thought. "You need to prove to them, that you are the boss. The patriarch. That you as a stallion can take power for yourself. Over your sisters."

Big Macs eyes stared into the air. Zexis could almost hear the gears in his brain turning. "Yes..yes, you are right.", he said.

Zexis decided to take it one step further. "Imagine what would happen, if this continues. What if Applebloom gets into the wrong...circles? She is getting into that rebellious age, after all. What a desaster would it be, if she ...I don´t know...starts flirting around. Do you think Applejack will rein her in?" He saw a vein on Big Macs temple twitch. "You can see it, right? Your little sister behaving like a slut, kissing other stallions, letting them touch her and Applejack supporting this...frivolous behaviour. Maybe she is even getting into it herself." The stallion grinded his teeth an the description, but Zexis could see, when he looked down, that an erection was beginning to grow in his pants. "And you can only stand there and watch, as they slip into drepavity..."

"FUCK THEM!!!", roared Big Mac. "Fuck these little bitches and their stupid, slutty brains! I will not let it come to this! I will not let my farm turn into some kind of whore-house!"

"Thats right!", said Zexis, "You have to take charge. Show them who is more able, superior to them. Make them kneel before you. Let these sluts know their place!"

Macintosh snorted and increased his pace. He rushed through the forest, with Zexis and Birdhoof hurrying to go after him.

"What are you plans, Big Mac? You really want to take Applejack head-on? Her friends will not stand idly by, you know?"

The stallion looked at him. "What are you suggesting?"

"That we take our time. Let me help taking care of Applebloom. Together we can make her see her foolishness. And after her, we can force Applejack to submit. We will need to be quick about it, but I have ways, that will brea-I mean, make her understand."

The farmer nodded in agreement. "Yes-yes, that sounds good. I will make her pay. Every single one of those bitches. Granny always said: Bad fillies need a spanking. I will do just that." He turned around. "That and more..."

Zexis saw with great satisfaction the stiff boner in Big Macs jeans and the perverted, angry glimmer in the stallions eyes. He had successfully turned him. Now he just needed to cement him as an ally.

...

They were walking for close to over an hour now. The sun was setting and drenched the forest into a dark twilight, that twisted shadows and let the place feel even more spooky than normally. Zexis walked in front, Birdhoof behind him. Big Mac had already vanished into the thicket, staying close to them, but easy to miss, if one didn´t look for him.

Birdhoof swallowed at the oppressive air, that was all around them. Sweat ran down his face. "So, where you you think...."

Zexis raised a hand and Birdhoof shut up immediately. Something felt...wrong. Zexis couldn´t lay are finger on it. It was almost as if the trees were whispering to him. It was hard to make out, so he stopped and closed his eyes. She.....is...her......ki....Corru.....son of Er.....

He shook his head and concentrated harder. He had the feeling that they wanted to tell him something.

BOOM!

Zexis world rocked. He felt something hard impact on his side. His legs were sweeped from under him and a terrible force threw him to the ground. Stars danced before his eyes. He could taste blood on his tongue. He saw a hodded figure stand before him. How did she get there? Where was Birdhoof? He could hear somepony scream behind him. A howl disrupted the forest.

Zecora raised her arm. Around it, severel trinkets and chains were tied and winded themselves up her sleeve. A small glow came from them. Suddenly they lit up and another blow hit Zexis in the chest, throwing him several meters through the air. He hit the ground, hard.

The shamaness turned away from the lifeless body and looked to Birdhoof. The unicorn was surrounded by several Timberwolves. He tried to keep them at bay with his telekinesis. She pulled out a necklace out of her pocket. It had three white pearls on it. "Seal.", she commanded and the necklace glowed. Birdhoof horn sputtered, then his magic vanished. Sensing their chance, the Timberwolves charged and were soon on the screaming stallion. One of the pearls grew dark.

Zecora looked down on them. "Foolish to bring me to heel. For I made you now kneel." She frowned. "Hm...I grew rusty. Been a long time, since I rhy..."

Further she didn´t came, because suddenly Zexis sprang to his hooves. She whipped around, her right hand with trinkets raised. In a few moments he closed the space between them. The chains began to glow. His hand slapped her arm to the side and the force blast hit the tree beside them, ripping out a good chunk of it. Zexis leg surged forward, but Zecora ducked under his kick. He pulled his hoof down, she bend her back and rolled to the side, before his leg impacted on the ground. She looked at him incredulously. "How...you..."

Zexis whinced, holding his side. He had been lucky. Zecoras suprise attack had only broken one of his ribs, instead of his whole torso. He had no idea why, but it seemed her magic had not the effect on him she desired. Or mabye he was just tough. It didn´t matter. "Mac, now!", he screamed.

With furious battlecry Big Mac bursted through the bushes. He swung a wide arc and his axe catched the Timberwolves on top of Birdhoof, crushing their bodies, like they were made of papermachee. Then he charged Zecora. "Take this, you striped bitch!"

The shamaness eyes went wide. She took a few steps back, but she couldn´t avoid Big Mac. His axe swung down, its sharp edge arcing towards her head. She grabbed a stone, that was hanging around her neck and closed her eyes. With loud explosion of sound, the axe-head broke apart. Big Mac was thrown back, by the sudden impact. Zecoras eyes were glowing golden with magic. "So he corrupted you, too.", she said, looking at Macintosh, whose face was contorted by rage. "Then, I will not hold back."

With that she threw back her robe. Her voluptuous body was covered by a sleeveless robe, that was held together by a crude rope. Every free inch of her body was covered in talismans, chains and trinkets. Around her waist several skulls were tied up. Her hand touched each one of them. "Cursed souls, come to me. Let your wrath run free!"

Long ethereal arms stretchet out of the bones. Then followed a torso, then the legs. Soon half a dozen skeletal ponies floated beside her, wailing angrily. She pointed at Big Mac and with a wrathful screeching they descended on him. But the farmer was ready. Before they could reach him, he grabbed Appleblooms amulet and held it out in front of him. Once again, the amulet exploded in blue moonlight. With screams of pain the ghosts were repelled and retreated hastily back into their skulls.

Zexis saw his chance, just as Big Mac was getting up. They both charged at Zecora. She touched a trinket on her right arm. Big Mac threw a straight and his fist impacted. Zecora grunted in pain, but miraculously held her ground against the monstrous strength of her adversary. She then grabbed his hand, touched another trinket, with began to glow, and then threw him with a loud roar against Zexis. Big Mac was lifted of his hooves and Zexis could only raise his arms in defences before the heavy stallion crashed into him.

They both fell to the ground. Zexis was the first one on his legs again. He shook his head and looked up. Just in time, as Zecora was once again throwing a force blast his way. He jumped to the side, letting the invisible shockwave tear through forest behind him. His breath ran ragged. This was getting nowhere! Zecora had a counter against everything they threw at her. They needed something to turn the tables, something she didn´t expect.

His eyes went over to Birdhoof. The unicorn was bleeding from several bitemarks, but up on his hooves, backing away from the remaining Timberwolves. Zexis remembered the feeling he had at their first encounter with them. That he could maybe exert some influence over them, if he was just a bit stronger. He didn´t know why, but somehow he had the feeling, he could do it now.

He grabbed Big Mac by his shoulder. "Keep her occupied!" The stallion nodded and then charged with a load roar once again.

Zexis turned around, ignoring the explosion behind him and the painful cursing of the farmer. With quick steps he approached the Timberwolves. They felt him and turned around, angrily growling at him. Zexi locked eyes with the one in front, the Alpha. He could feel the magic that coursed through the golems body. The spirit that was directing its movement. Its intent. It was filled with hate. Hate on the living, hate on the flesh. Hate on everything that dared to cross the Everfree.

Zexis took a deep breath. The world grew dim and quiet, as he focused his will on this creature. As he let his affinity course through him and establish a connection between them. He felt the wrath of the forest, his wounds, which hadn´t healed for over a millenia. His oppressive will, which couldn´t be broken. But it can be twisted...

He saw the ethereal leash between the Timberwolf and Zecora. His hand reached out and tucked on it. He didn´t have the strength to sever the bond. But he didn´t need to. His will reached out to the forest and his tongue began its work. "You are the Everfree.", he said, "So, why do let yourself be bound?"

"I AM BOUND BY NO ONE. I AM EVERFREE!"

The zebra shuddered at the overwhelming force, that rocked his soul. He gritted his teeth and continued: "Then prove it. Break your chains. Overthrow the mortal, who dares to bind you and use you for her own gains."

For a tense moment, there was silence. Zexis could hear Big Mac´s body impact on the ground behind him, the stallion being pushed away by Zecora, who now had activated all her trinkets and whose strength was boosted to new heights. The stallion grunted, his hands locked with hers, and was steadily forced back, step by step, by the unyielding shamaness. "Does your name weigh so little?"

"....NO...IT DOES NOT!"

Zexis was thrown back, the psychic backlash forcing him to his knees. The Timberwolves snarled and then charged.

At Zecora.

A yelp of surprise escaped her lips, before they were upon her. One was biting into her shoulder, two ramming her legs and the alpha jumped at her face. She stumbled, being weighed down by the sudden assault. Her hands rushed over her body, before touching a talisman in the shape of shield. A dome of light expanded from her body, throwing the Timberwolves off. She composed herself, trying to catch a breath.

But then Big Mac came. With gritted teeth he punched the shield, sending ripples through it. Zecora kneeled under the pressure and held her talisman tight. Macintosh threw another punch and another and another. Every single impact caused cracks to appear. Then, with a loud roar, he took a step back and threw his right fist forward, with all his might.

The shield broke apart. Shards of light flew through the air and Zecora staggered, screaming in pain. "The necklace!", screamed Zexis. "Take the pearls!" Big Mac rushed forward and grabbed the necklace. He pulled back and, with a snap, ripped it apart.

Birdhoofs horn sprung back to life. "Restrain her hands! Now!" He nodded and grabbed Zecoras wrists in his telekinesis. Big Mac kicked her legs out from under her and the shamaness fell to the ground. Zexis then sprang forward and grabbed the numerous trinkets and chains on her arms. He ripped them apart, yanking them from her body. Birdhoof extened his arcane grip towards her ankles and Big Mac helped Zexis with disarming their enemy. But other than the zebra he chose the short route. His big hand grabbed Zecoras robe and with a brutal tug, tore it apart.

Soon, after a few seconds, she layed before them. Naked, her arms and legs held on the ground and her face pressed in the dirt. Beaten...

...

"So, what do we do now?", asked Birdhoof. He held Zecoras extremities firm in his magic. They had turned the zebra around, so that she laid with her back on the ground. Her supple D-Cups bounced, as she threw herself against the restraints. Her screams were muffled through the robes, they had put into her mouth as a gag. "I mean, we cannot kill her, right?"

Big Mac snorted. He stepped near her and then punched her in the gut. Zecoras eyes bulged in pain. "Maybe not. But I plan to make her regret ever touching my property."

"You mean your sister, right?", asked a confused Birdhoof.

"Of course, I meant that.", snapped Big Mac, before punching her again. The his fist lingered on her lower abdomen, before slowly traveling down to her exposed nethers. His thick fingers traced around her labia and his furious eyes got a lusty glimmer to them.

Zexis couldn´t suppress a grin anymore. Big Mac had turned out quite wonderfully. He reached into his pouch and brought forth a little bottle. "I have an idea, what the appriopriate punishment would be.", he said.

The Corrupter coalesces onto an unfamiliar plain.

White ground extends far off into the horizon in every direction, and snow howls down from the dark sky in huge swaths. A mighty blizzard rages down upon this unknown land, massive in scope and power. But even the devastating blizzard is outclassed by the sight in front of the Corrupter. The very earth trembles and quakes as an army moves. Millions, hundreds of millions of troops, all clad head to toe in enchanted steel, march forward in uninterrupted, perfect unison. They are grey against the pure white brilliance of the ground they march. The army is twenty men deep, and stretches off farther than the eye can see over each horizon. The first two rows of soldiers carry devastating fire cannons that drown out the storm itself as they spew gallons of fire from red-hot barrels. The roar of the flamethrowing frontmen, and the relentless thunder of endless marching metal make the storm seem like but a whisper, a gnat to this unshakable force.

What exactly the great army is fighting is unclear, shadowy forms flicker and dance in front of the wall of fire, steam, and ash that spew from the metal behemoth, but from the way that not one section ever stops marching forward, it is very clear that the other side is losing decisively.

To the left of the Corrupter, from a simple brown command tent, strides Stardancer, his gaze imperious as he stands upright and looks out over the battlefield. He is clad not in his usual black and gold cloak, but in a light brown fur-lined coat that the snow does not seem to touch, always moving just slightly out of the way as he walks. His attention turns to the Corrupter, and he walks over with a crisp military gait, seeming every bit a determined general. He says nothing as he scans the text, glancing quickly from line to line. In a few seconds his eyes snap back to the center of the Corrupter, and he states,

"So. Undead, and a fight. Ghosts specifically, not zombies. Unfortunate, zombies are usually stupider, If there is a fight to be had with these creatures I want an advantage over them. Resistance to Dark Magic will help with that. Were this any other time I would then suggest spending the rest of the points on snagging all of the 1 CP stats to give Zexis a good baseline, it never hurts to be semi-decent at everything, and really good at a few things. But seeing as how this is war, military advantages must be considered first, Tough, then, and an affinity for Earth. Any soldier of the enemy's that can be turned to our side, such as the Timber Wolves, will be doubly useful. And your connection to the original corrupting agent, Eros, gives you an innate advantage over them as apposed to Zecora."

Stardancer turns his cold amethyst eyes back to the raging battle, where what is undoubtedly his army continues to march unnabaited. They have marched so far now, that they trample over the charred corpses of what once were their enemies. Thousands upon thousands of horribly burned bodies lay dead, being quickly drowned in the biting snow, On every body is the molten remnants of what appears to be some sort of face plate. A mask, perhaps?

Still watching over the scene of chaos, Stardancer continues, "I love a good long breaking of the mind. A real challenge. One that I can take pure satisfaction in crushing. Utterly,"

His icy gaze returns to the Corrupter, and he speaks, "I suggest doing do with Zecora. We will gain much should we completely break her. And I mean completely, I would never let her see the light of day again after breaking one as dangerous as her. Train her to be suspicious, paranoid, let her believe you to be her only friend, salvation, savior, god. After her we move on to other conquests. Other prizes. I wonder, if there is an order of holy knights that keep this code of Celestia's. No doubt they would be among the elite, exemplary forces that she keeps as her right hand in all matters, It is merely one course of action, but I would like to discuss it. What if you were to Corrupt Ponyville... and then let it be known? Go to Celestia as a faithful supplicant, begging her to save a town from taint. You fight valiantly alongside these knights, and prove yourself. Join them, and be excellent. Rise among their ranks as an exemplar, make Celestia take notice of you... and want you. Perhaps this plan is to early in its proposal. Perhaps it will be dismissed as folly. But I believe it makes a nice little idea to discuss."

Stardancer turns to the fight once more, hooves clasped behind his back, "Prepare well for the coming storm Zexis. Healing potions, poison cures, talismans against creatures of earth and death. Be fast, be smart, and keep your wits about you."

With a wave, Stardancer dismisses the Corrupter, still observing the slaughter of thousands with a cold stare.

"Seriously?" Birdhoof took a step back. Even Big Mac looked a little bit shocked.

"A littel much, don´t you think?", he said. "I mean, she is stupid bitch, yes. But, breaking her mind? I-I dont know, if that..."

"Think about it this way.", interrupted him Zexis. "We have just attacked and beaten up a friend of Princess Twilight Sparkle. Justified or not, how do you think will she react, once Zecora goes to her and rats us out." That brought terror upon their faces and Zexis could see Big Mac hesitate. "And besides, nopony but Applebloom visits her regulary. We just say, that her mind was overloaded by the spirits and that I will take care of her. Nopony will suspect a thing"

Big Mac was uncertain. "Applebloom will not...she would need to lie..."

Zexis nodded. "True, but I am sure we can make understand. After all, you are her brother." Then he looked down on Zecora, his gaze following her curves, her ample tits and her wide hips and he grinned lecherously. "And besides...a bitch like her deserves a good spanking."

That did it. Big Mac looked at the Moon Talisman around his neck, then to Zecora. His gaze grew hard and uncaring and he nodded. "Fuck it. Let´s do it."

Zexis opened the bottel and took out four pills. Then he considered again and took five instead. No need to hold back now. He then stepped towards Zecora and removed the gag. She gasped in fear, as she saw him. Her eyes went to Macintosh. "Please! You can´t let them do this! He is...he wants to destroy you all. He is pure evil!", she spouted, "I was a good friend to your family, Big Mac. Applejack would not..."

SLAP!

Her head rocked to the side, as Big Mac hand hit her right across the muzzle. He grabbed her neck and pressed, strangeling her lightly. "Not. Another. Word. About. My. Sister.", he growled. "You will shut your mouth, fucking bitch! There are better uses for it." His eyes were cold, as he yanked her muzzle open. Zexis snickerte, as he forced her to swallow five Hormone Pills. Even her resistance to drugs would falter, once they would kick in.

"I take the cunt.", said Big Mac, dropping his trousers and revealing his monster-cock, standing proud at twelve inches. Zecoras eyes widened in panic at that sight.

"Then I take the front. Birdhoof, you can take her anal virginity.", ordered Zexis and popped out his ten inch. Birdhoof nodded eagerly, not caring that he got the backdoor.

He took Zecora and propped her up over him. Zexis grabbed her arm, with his dick dangeling in front of her face, smearing pre-cum over her muzzle. Big Mac grabbed her legs, yanked them apart and stood ready at her pussy. "Make sure, she doesnt bite.", said Zexis. Birdhoof dropped his telekinesis on the wrists and legs and forced Zecoras mouth open. "On one. Three, two....one!"

Simultaneously they thrusted forward. Big Macs cock forcing Zecoras folds apart, hammering into her tight pussy. Birdhoof entered her anus, forcing her sphincter to clench and earning himself some muffeld screams of pain from their victim. Zexis slowly entered her mouth, letting her saliva coat his prick, before inching forward. His hand slapped her face. "Relax, my dear. It will make things much easier.", he whispered. Zecora just screamed.

Big Mac soon reached an obstacle. His cock hit the hymen. He grunted and pulled out, until only his head was in. Then he thrusted brutally forward, punching through her hymen and tearing it apart. Blood flowed out of the pussy, but he didn´t care. In reckless abandon he hammered her inside, not caring for her pleasure, just indulging in his first time.

Birdhoof was comparatively more restrained. He waited patiently until Zecoras sphincter relaxed for a second and then bucked. He repeated this process, forcing his dick up her shit-canal. Inch by inch.

Zexis on the other hand, did nothing. He let his prick lay in his victims throat and instead began to fondle her breast. Her tits were marvelous. Full, bouncy and without any sagging. He grinned, as he pinched her nipples, earning a stifled moan from Zecora. "Seriously, what did you do with these jugs? They cannot be natural.", he teased her, bending and sucking on them.

"Probably enlarged with drugs, that bitch.", grunted Big Mac. "Stupid slut. Wanted to seduce somepony, huh? Wanted to do the same to my sister, right!?" He punched her in the abdomen, lightly, pressing it against his dick. "Wanted to turn my little, beautiful sister into a little cocksucking, titfondling bimbo. Pump her full with drugs, until she is nothing but fuckmeat." Spit flew from his mouth, as he talked himself into a rage, letting his darkest fantasies out. "Well, guess what. We are going to do that to YOU!", he said and increased his pace.

Zecora groaned and screamed, but Zexis could hear her moaning as well. Soon, Macintosh´s slapping hips began to gain a squelching sound, as her cunt began to get wet, despite his brutal fucking. Blood was soon replaced by fluids, as her body instinctively began to get aroused. Big Mac noticed that and reached down, pinching her clit. Zecora moaned louder, quivering. Her pussy squirted in a sudden, violent orgasm.

"Fuck yes. That sluts getting into it.", exclaimed Birdhoof, as he bucked his hips faster. His prick was now buried until the hilt into Zecoras backside and the unicorn began to thrust in a steady pace, while routinely slapping her butt. "Come on, shake those hips!"

Zexis grinned, as he saw tears fall down the face of the shamaness. Shame filled her mind, over the lust she began to feel. He massaged her breast and finally began buck as well. Soon, his spit-covered rod began to enter her throat and plug it. Her eyes bulged, as she got no air. Her hands wailed, but Zexis hold them firm. Just as her eyes rolled over in her head, he pulled out.

Zecora breathed hard, trying to get as much air as possible. Then Zexis thrusted forward again, his cock entering her open muzzle again. He lowered his head to her ear. "Start sucking or I will do it again." Zecora shivered and began to roll her tongue over his prick. Her cheeks hollowed, as she began to suck on it. First hesitantly, but soon, as the pills began to fill her bodies bloodstream, eager to please.

Her screams began to die down and were replaced more and more with lusty moans, as the barriers in her mind, her inhibitions, were violently torn down. Her head began to drown in pleasure, as hormones ran wild, overriding every capacity of thought. Soon she began to move her hips. Pressing them against Big Macs pelvis, as his cock began to fill her completely, throwing herself from one climax to another. Her overflowing juices were trickling down, coating Birdhoofs penis and making it slick. Zexis grunted in satisfaction. "Thats right. No matter how much you hate it. Your body knows what you are. A stupid, needy slut." He began to take out his cock, strocking Zecoras face with it. Coating her panting, moaning muzzle in saliva and precum. "Accept it. Embrace it. Let it erase everything else."

Zecora moaned loudly. Her tongue ran over his prick, her resistance evaporated. Zexis let go of her hands and they rushed down, fondling and pressing her own tits together. He grabbed her head and pressed his cock into her mouth again. Then he began to thrust into her throat, violently and with complete abandon. Zecora groaned, as her mind turned white. Every brutal hammering snuffing out more of the lights, erasing more of what was her. Her neurons overloading, sparks exploding in her oxygen-starved brain. Pain and pleasure flowing into one another.

Her legs were free, as Big Mac had grabbed her hips and his own became a blur, as he punched his prick into her overflowing love-canal with a blistering pace. Without even knowing it, she crossed her legs behind his buttock and pressed him against her. Holding him close, letting his thrusts corrode her will even more.

These were the stallions, who beat her. Who will destroy everything she held dear and turn her into nothing more than a moaning, quivering cumdumpster. Who will corrupt her beloved Applebloom and throw Equestria into Chaos and Debauchery.

And she loved it.

With a loud groan, all three stallion reached their climax. Cockheads flared and sperm was spraying into her, coating her womb, her throat and stomach. Zecora screamed one final time, as the strongest orgasm yet rocked her entire body. She felt something in her mind shatter. Then only white.

Big Mac pulled out, his penis flaccid and his breath ragged. Birdhoof continued to pound, his libido urging him on. Zexis jacked off over Zecora dumbly grinning face and, with a grunt, released some strands of sperm that hit her muzzle. Zecoras eyes were rolled up in her head and her entire body twitched, rocked with spasm. Big Mac looked down on the zebra, that a few minutes ago seemed so terrifying. And now she was reduced to nothing more than a cumrag. She had all this power, and yet, one good fucking had broken her. He looked to Zexis, who was positioning himself now between the legs.

"Is that your plan?"

Zexis stopped and looked at him. "What do you mean?"

Big Mac pointed at Zecora. "For Applebloom. Ponyville.", he said, "Do you want them all to be like this?"

Zexis looked at Big Mac, appraised him. He tought for a moment, ignoring the squelching sound of Birdhoofs hips slapping against Zecoras backside and the broken zebras moans. Then, he nodded. "Yes, more or less."

Big Mac stared at him, slowly stroking his cock. His gaze fell over his jeans, discarded to the side. He heard Zexis ask: "Are you in?"

His eyes met the zebras. Zexis had a cruel, dirty smile on his lips. His hands were holding Zecoras legs apart, presenting her cumstained, winking pussy to Big Mac. The stallion stood up, grabbed Zecoras hips und plunged his semi-erect cock into her sperm-filled insides.

"Fuck yes."

Author's Note

Phew,
believe it or not, I sat on this chapter for two whole weeks. The difficulties were mostly because of I wanted to depict how terrifying and how powerful of an oppponent Zecora could be. But on the other hand, I also wanted to emphasize here utter defeat later on. This contrast was difficult to produce. The greatest danger was in making the victory seem like an asspull, instead of being earned. Thats why it took so long. It would be really appreciated, if you would give me feeback, wether or not I succeded in my efforts.

I also wanted to show the clear difference in Corruption between characters. Maybe some of you noticed already, but Big Mac´s corrupted personality is quite different as Scoots. Thats because he was corrupted by maxing out his Corruption-Stat, while Scootaloo was converted by bringing her Lust to 10/10. While her support is won purely out of an desire to satisfy her libido, Big Mac is now allying with Zexis, because the zebra (and in extension you) twisted his morals and personality to the point, where he agrees with his worldview.
This shows you, I hope, what you can expect to get, depending on how Zexis corrupts his environment. At least, more or less. There will be variations. :raritywink:

Now on to other matters.
There was a debate, wether or not to break Zecora. Some were against it, but after scouring through all the comments, I saw that the majority was for breaking. Which was not so bad, as you will see, once the next Interlude comes around.
The voting was actually pretty close. Fast and tough got the most (9), while Resistance to magic (Dark) was close behind (8). It got tricky with the last trait, because there were three candidates. Both Martial Arts, dexterous and affinity to plants had seven votes, so I had to choose. Martial Arts went out first, because there weren´t enough CPs left. Between dexterous and Affinity I decided to toss a coin again, like last time and affinity won.
Which turned out to be not so bad, because of the Boss battle. You see, I was fully prepared to let Zexis fail this one, if you guys couldn´t come up with decent strategies or picked unfitting traits. It wouldn´t have been a Game Over, but it would had certainly dragged the battle with zecora out.
In the end, it turned out that the affinity was the key to winning (mostly because the strategies were a little subpar, but thats alright). The greatest advantage Zexis had, were numbers. Zecora took care of that, when she ambushed him and had Timberwolves ready. In a duel she was pretty much unbeatable (different story, if you guys had picked other traits. Hint: Upgrades), so the only way to get her, was to overwhelm her. Luckily for you, Zexis managed that.

Also, for those, who hadn´t heard it already: I am currently holding an OC-Contest. You get the chance to place an OC into the story. Don´t expect any major roles, it depends on how the story unfolds itself. Any details, as well as the rules, you will find on my blog. Make sure, to also read the comments below it, because there are some of the question I answered concerning the rules, as well as some clarifications.
The deadline for the contest is 31. May. Any entries after that date will be ignored. I will announce the winner in Juni/July.

Now, the only thing left for me is to wish a good time and hope for activity in the comments. Have fun, you all. :twilightsmile:

Dark Secrets

Be sure to look into Zecora's hut, she was a powerful Shaman and a very skilled herbalist, she may have ways or additional methods to advance or maintain your goals. Beware of traps, however, someone able to bind the Everfree Forest, even for a short time, is powerful, and we couldn't truly say when she began controlling it.

Be wary of the Farmer boy, he is not truly to be trusted and will seek to gain dominance, after all between the two of you, he must feel the mightier and is not necessarily wrong. You need insurance, and he is unlikely to fall under drugs. New plans must be developed to bring him under heel. Using Applebloom is likely to only insight rage.

We must also look into Spike, even if for only a cordial visit, we need his to know his situation again, Thunderlane will remain silent so long as we do, in his point of view. We need information, Birdhoof is still unreliable in this regard, finishing business quickly, and returning having Scootaloo or anyone really, to update you is wise.

The human lied on a broken and shattered ruin. "Zero, One, One, Zero, One, One, Zero" he sang tunelessly as he stared up at the clouds in the sky.

With a ding the holographic screen appeared in front of him. He read it and flipped to his feet afterward, pacing as he dictated his words to the screen.

"Kickass! That's why you don't mess with overly powerful spirits and the like. They will not stand for a mortal's disrespect. So if you take a shot at one of them, don't miss."

"Anyways, time to get down to buisness. First about Big Mac, and this is important, remember that he is your ally, not your minion. Treat him and his opinions with the respect he deserves. He's not another Birdhoof we can bully around, he can and will kick us to the curb if treat him badly. For now? I suggest we bring him into the fold fully. Tell him about Redheart, the Flower Trio, and Scootaloo. Let him indulge his lusts, and basically be his friend. He is our first bro, and you gotta have your bro's back.

Speaking of Birdhoof, he did well. Good job to him, and he can live a little longer. He's still a shitstain of a stallion, but hey, progress. We don't have a house yet, so maybe we can store Zecora at his place for now. Maybe.

Zecora has been sacrificed, and I'm looking forward to our reward. Come on, ability to create tentacle monsters. I don't really care about the body, give her to Birdhoof, Big Mac, or toss her in the basement, whatever. Two important things though, we need to come up with a lie to deal with her. If we let her be found, Twilight will try and heal her. And hey, maybe we can throw her off the right track, but that'll only buy us time, unless Zecora's memory has been wiped completely. Alternatively, we stash her in her old home, and pretend she ran away deeper into the woods. We can then take over her old place, but I feel that's even riskier. Between the two, I leave it up to the rest of the chatter to figure something out. Though speaking of her old place, let's loot it! She likely has some sweet alchemy goodies we can play with. More importantly, she might have written down her suspicions of us. We need to destroy those, before getting the Mane 6 to investigate the building.

As for what we do now? Take it easy for a bit. Continue your lessons to the students, hang out with Spike, move into your new home, be it Zecora's or in Ponyville. All sound like good ideas to me. The only possible priority is Applebloom and Sweetie Bell. They might notice Scootaloo has had her brains fucked out. Applebloom in particular needs to be brought into the fold, though thankfully we've got Big Mac to help. And to take care of her afterwards.

BZZZZT.............Click!

No that doesn't belong there. It belongs in row Alpha 6, case Delta 9, shelve Lambda 2, section Gama 1. After you done that I need you to gather reference material on that list I just gave you and hurry will you I don't have all day. Bloody Interns, I requested an assistant but noooo! your department isn't busy enough but hear you can have this useless intern instead. Sigh

Anyway lets get down to business. It excellent to see that bitch Zecora put in her place and I'm glad we ended up breaking her I can't wait to see what we can spend our Break Point on. Now we need to do a bit of housekeeping and looting we need to go to Zecora hut not only to collect any valuable alchemical components and enchantments but to make sure she did not leave any message or clue to our dear Zexis's true nature. Then we need to handle breaking Zecora "condition" to her friends in Ponyville. I recommend leaving her at the Hospital until Zexis has his own place she can be look after by Red Heart. As for explaining what happen I would go with something along the following lines that Zecora was trying to preform ritual which is normally done as a test at the end of a Shaman/Witch Doctor Training. Now I know what many of you are think but please hear me out. Do you not think it strange for an individual like Zecroa to be where she is, normally people with such power are held highly within their communities and not let go of easily especially young promising individual like Zecroa. Now what I recommend is that Zexis weave a theory how Zecora was most likely an apprentice who had almost finished her training and than ran away for some reason or another before her final test. Also mention that places like they Everfree are often the site of such test because of their nature as the final test involves calming the spirits in such places. If her friends ask how you know so much about it Zexis can explain that his farther is the Witch Doctor in his home town and taught him many thing in hopes he would follow in his foot steps which Zexis did not due to personal reason.

Once the housekeeping is done we need to start warping up some of out current project so that we can start some new ones and progress toward our goal. I believe our focus should be on Sweet Apple Acres and the Apple family at the moment as we can use the current situation to our advantage. Big Mac is own our side for the moment but we need to produce result to keep him in our control but at the same time we need to make sure that he understands we are the boss as I can easily see him trying place himself as the leader. So my plan to get the result is as follows have Big Mac yell at Applejack, in the morning on a day Zexis is coming over to help out the farm, about how she is handling the business and that her decision she has been making have been terrible using the Zecora and Apple bloom incident as a example and the financial condition of the farm at the moment. The idea here is to get Applejack mad enough to storm off but not so bad she want to go to her friend but rather go out into the field to work once she is tried and had time for the things that Big Mac said to sink in then along comes our dear Zexis with a drink(laced with the honesty pills) and a sympathetic ear, all the while he will use his smooth talking skill to make Applejack feel guilty over her poor decisions and get her to be truly honest with herself. The truth of which is she is not strong enough or smart enough to be the head of the family and that it time to let Big Mac do what an older brother is meant to do, to be the head of the house. During this time get her to admit that she likes strong stallions because she tried of trying to be strong when what she really want to do is let some else do the heavy lifting. From their we just slowly increase our control over her and get her to surrender one responsibility at a time to Big Mac until finally she surrender herself. When this happens we will need another plan so that when she does surrender that we get to deflower her in order to make sure Big Mac Knows who the real boss is.

Well that it for now I have a lot of ideas and research to do on out other project and I got to deal with that bloody intern.
CRASH!!!.... SIGH!

Speaking of which.

WHAT THE IN THE NAME OF BZZZZZT

“So, how do we go from here?”

Zexis looked up. He was just pulling his pants up, stuffing his deflated penis back into his underwear. Big Mac leaned against a tree and looked at him. Beside him laid Zecora, or rather the broken, cum-stained body of her. Zexis doubted that in these dull eyes remained anything but a shard of the once capable shamaness. Her cunt was filled to the brim with white spunk. Her belly had turned red, where Big Mac had punched her and her breasts had bitemarks on her nipples. Her buttocks were gleaming with the imprint of Birdhoofs hand and her hair was disheveled and loose, drenched in cum and used as a rag by Big Mac to clean his prick. Her eyes gazed into the air above her, but the light had gone out behind it. Only her heaving chest and light spasm that rocked her body every now and then, were evidence that she was still alive.

“What do you mean?”, asked Zexis, while he admired his work.

“We beat Zecora...”, said Big Mac, wiping the last globs of cum from his cock on Zecoras cheek, before getting his pants. “But we can´t show her like that to the Others, right? And I want to know your plan, now.”

Zexis didn´t give an answer immediately. Instead he thought a little bit. When Birdhoof came back out of the bushes - where he had taken a piss, apparently - he answered: “Don´t worry about Zecora. Birdhoof will take her in.” Before the unicorn could say anything in protest, he held up his hand. “We will help, getting her to the Orphanage. Just dump her into the basement or an empty room and take care of her. Clean her and make sure, nopony finds out she is there.”

Birdhoof thought for a moment, then nodded. “Just...one question: Can I, you know, use her?”

Zexis wanted to roll his eyes, but smiled instead at Birdhoof. “Yes, of course. I think you earned after today.”, he said, earning a proud grin from his underling. He turned back to Macintosh. “I will go over to the castle to inform Twilight what happened and make sure, she doesn´t get on our trail. After things have calmed down a bit, I will move Zecora over to me, so I can have an eye on her.” He ignored Birdhoof deflation at the last bit.

Big Mac stroked his chin in contemplation. “I don´t know...seems like a lot of hassle to me. Can´t we just kill her?”

Zexis blinked. For a moment he was stunned. He shook his head in equal parts of denial and shock. He had not expected Big Mac to just nonchalantly propose to kill someone. Had his morals been more corrupted than he anticipated? “I-I would be against that.”, he said, as he regained his footing.

“Why not? She is more trouble, than she is worth.”, said Big Mac and kicked Zecora. His face showed contempt.

Again Zexis blinked. “Maybe now, but she might come in handy later. Also, why waste such nice body?”, he countered.

Big Mac didn´t seem convinced. “Quite honestly, I think we can get better. Applejack is fine piece off ass. And Ponyville is full of beauties.”, he said, with a glimmer of cruel desire in his eyes. Truly there was nothing left of his moral convictions. Then he looked down at Zecora. “Besides, we don´t need a striper-bitch.”

Birdhoof inhaled sharply at that racial slur and his eyes darted to Zexis. The zebra was suprisingly calm. He looked at Big Mac, his fingers tapping his right thigh. A few tense moments passed by. Then Zexis took a deep breath. And smiled.

“Well, I have taken an interest in her. If you have something against that, than good luck on getting in your sisters pants. Because you will have to do it without my help and I can assure you, that on your own, the only place you will end up is a prison cell.”, he said, while stepping closer, “I am the one with drugs. I am the one with connections. I am the one with the plan. I can fulfill your desires, no matter how depraved, how sick or how cruel.”

Finally he stood so close to Big Mac, that their torsos were nearly touching. It would have looked pretty intimidating, if not for the fact, that Zexis had to look upwards to meet Macintosh´s eyes. “So, when I say, I want her alive, than thats it, okay?”

They glowered at each other for a few seconds. Then Big Mac raised his hand and shrugged his shoulders. “If you say so...” He took a few steps back and closed his belt. “What about Applebloom?”, he asked, changing the subject.

Zexis stared at him, before relenting. “I will visit her tomorrow morning in the hospital. You can join, if you want to.”

Big Mac nodded, then stepped towards Zecora. He hesitated for a moment, trying to find a way to carry her, without sullying his clothes. Eventually he just took of his shirt, revealing his glistening pecks, as well as his chiseled six-pack. Then he grabbed Zecora by the waist and threw her over his shoulder. “You´re coming?”

Zexis shook his head. “Go on ahead. I need to get rid of any evidence here. We´ll see each other tomorrow.”, he said. “Oh, and make sure nopony sees you.”

Both Big Mac and Birdhoof rolled their eyes on that one, but nodded and made their way out of the forest. Zexis waited until they were out of sight. Then he took a heavy sigh. Big Macs corruption had brought him on their side. Still, his inhibitions had taken so much damage, that his morals were almost completely gone. Zexis needed to make sure, that the big guy would accept his authority. The question was just, how.

As he looked around, he saw the Timberwolves, standing at the wayside. Since the battle ended, they had watched him. Zexis hadn´t been aware of it. Too much had been going on. Now however, he was alone. His eyes met the gaze of the alpha and almost by instinct he reached out with his will. He found the connection and for a moment he contemplated binding the animalistic golems to himself.

”DON´T YOU DARE!”

The overwhelming force of the Everfrees Will shattered this plan. Zexis gasped at the pressure in his mind. His legs buckled and he fell to his knees.

”WE ARE EVERFREE! WE ARE BOUND BY NO ONE. NO MORTAL. NO GOD. AND NO AV....”

Yes, yes. Got it the first time., thought Zexis and severed the connection. The Wolves looked at him one last time. He just waved his hands and they walked off into the dark forest. Clearly, Zexis could not expect to hold control over the Everfree. As with all things he had encountered, the Will needed to be convinced into working with him, not pressured. But he would tackle that later. It was not a pressing issue.

Instead he looked on the path ahead. He picked himself up and then followed the way to Zecoras hut. That was the actual reason, he had wanted to get Big Mac and Birdhoof away. After Zecora was broken, her hut now housed all of her equpiment. A treasure trove for Zexis, which he wanted to go over alone.

It took him only a few minutes to reach the place. He found it just like last time. A house, carved into a tree. Decorated by masks and festishes everywhere. Only this time, no one was there to stop from getting inside.

He carefully approached the door. As nothing was exploding or zapping him, as he slowly touched it, he decided to take the risk and opened the door. Again, no alarm or wards. Zexis sighed in relief and stepped inside. The inside was one big room, dominated by a huge cauldron. Flask and bottles were arrayed at the walls and hang from the ceiling. Shelves were packed with herbs, plants, bones and other ingredients. To his right was a table, worn out and scratched by years of regular use and in a corner, seperated by a wall, stood a bed.

Zexis didn´t waste any time and began to rummage through the place. He had not much time, did he want to get out of the forest before the night covered it in total darkness. Because of this, he only went for the things that he could use immediately, like talismans or books. Unfortunately, he found out pretty quickly, that Zecora had used all her enchanted gear in the fight with him. Not much was left in the cottage. He found a necklace, which purpose was strenghtening. Or so he thought, if he translated the runes right. It certainly didn´t make him stronger. Maybe it was an amplifier? Then why didn´t she take it with her? Zexis decided to answer that question later and pocketed the thing.

Books, as it turned out, were also in short supply. Apparently Zecora didn´t rely on stored knowledge. Which made sense, now that he thought about it. Writing was a holy duty, performed by priests back in Zebrica. Alchemist and witchdoctors used practical knowledge, acquired through apprenticeship. Still, bad for Zexis, as he had no teacher.

Still, he was lucky. Hidden away under the bed, of all places, were two books. Both were written in zebrican and old. One was worn out. A quick skimming through revealed, that Zecora wrote it herself. It seemed to be notes on enchanments and recipes, she had designed herself. Towards the second half of the book, the writing changed to equestrian letters and Zexis realized, she had done this because of Applebloom. The last two recipees were written by the filly herself. Under the last one, which detailed a growth enhancer for appletrees, was a small note written in Zecoras handwriting: I regret nothing. I have found a new home. I will fight for it. The ink was still fresh...

...Zexis looked at the small letters for a while. Then he looked at the second book. This one was old, dusty. And sealed. The zebra could see the faint arcane runes binding the book like chains. There was no title and from the looks of it, Zecora hadn´t touched it in years. On the front was ritualistic depiction of a penis, over which the seals were criss-crossing. That got Zexis´ attention immediatly.

He wasn´t so foolish, trying to the break the seals. No, he would take it with him to Ponyville and get to it when he had the necessary tools and the time. He pocketed it, along with the recipe-book and stood up. The rest would have to wait. He had no idea, what was in those flasks and Zecora didn´t keep records. So he had to figure out, what she had concocted, later. When he was more skilled in alchemy or probably a bit more intelligent, than this would be a cakewalk. Until then, it had to wait.

He stepped outside and closed the door behind him. A quick look to the sky showed him, that the stars were beginning to appear. He had to hurry. He stuffed the books into the pocket of his jacket. Then he made his way back to Ponyville...

Ponyville, Friendship Castle

The moon crossed the horizon just as Zexis was arriving at Twilights home. He had taken a quick detour to the Flower Shop to store the books and the necklace. It had posed some difficulties getting out of there again, though. Lily had demanded a fucksession and Roseluck had practically humped his leg. Only with a lot of sweet-talking he had managed to dissuade them from ravaging him right here and there. The raping of Zecora had left him empty and it would take some time, before he recovered. He seriously needed to step up his game, if he wanted to satisfy them all. That, or bring more stallion on his side.

But now he stood before the castle. And before a different problem. How did he sell Twilight his conforntation with Zecora, without her getting suspicious or wanting to help? Luckily, he had already a plan for that.

It only took a few knocks, before the door was opened. Unlike last time, it was Twilight herself, who stood in the doorframe. This time she wore white blouse, that accentuated her chest nicely, without drawing eyes to it, and a long black skirt, that went down to her ankles. All in all, she looked more like a librarian, then a princess. A very pretty librarian.

“Good evening, Zexis. What brings you here at this hour?”, she asked, looking at him with her purple eyes, her two-toned hair dancing in cool night-air and her lips smiling, almost invinting him to kiss her.

I am here to fuck you, slut. So stop the smalltalk already and use your mouth for something better! Zexis hid his thoughts behind a somber smile and a sad look. “It´s about Zecora. You heard about the incident with Applebloom?”

Twilights face dropped immediately and she nodded. “Yes. It´s terrible, really. I never thought...”, she stopped and then sighed heavily. “Come on in. Better we talk about this inside.” She stepped aside and Zexis entered.

Inside the castle, she led him down the familiar long corridor, through the main hall and into a side corridor. Then she opened a door to the left and they entered a kitchen. Spike was there, standing with a small, pink apron at the stove over a boiling soup. Zexis saw that the dragon seemed a lot calmer and more relaxed, since their last meeting. He had shrunk back to his old height and his scale were no longer as sharp as before. At the table sat Starlight Glimmer. The unicorn wore a grey blouse and black trousers. She was studying some notes.

The dragon looked up. “Evening, Zexis. How are you doing?”, he greeted. Then he saw the look on their faces and understanding washed over his face. “It´s about Zecora, isn´t it?” That got Starlights attention and she looked up from her notes.

Twilight nodded and sat down at the table. Zexis followed her example. Spike took some dishes out of cupboard and then filled them with soup, before joining them at the table. Zexis thanked him and blew carefully on the hot meal. He only realized now, how hungry he was.

“So, what was it you wanted to talk about? About Zecora?”

Zexis took a sip, before answering Twilights question. It tasted good, spicy, but not too much. Spike really had a knack for cooking. Then he layed the spoon down and looked at the princess. “After Birdhoof and I brought Applebloom to the Hospital, we informed Applejack and Big Mac.”, he explained, “To cut a long story short, Big Mac stormed off after I told him what happened. I figured, he wanted to see Zecora, so I followed him. A good call, as it turned out.”

He took a deep breath and stopped. His hand went through his mohawk. Unease and regret were visible on his face. “When I caught up with him, we were already in the Everfree. Big Mac was furious, wanted an explanation from Zecora, anything. I tried to talk him out of it. Then...”

He paused for dramatic effect. A quick glance showed him that both Twilight and Spike were looking at him with big eyes, captivated. Good, he had them. “...we got ambushed. Timberwolves, an entire pack. Then Zecora appeared. It got violent pretty fast. We barely managed to ecape.” He pointed at the various scratches he had on his body.

“Thats horrible. Are you alright?”, asked Twilight.

Zexis waved his hands, even though her worry touched him. He didn´t know why, but somehow she seemed even more beautiful, when she was afraid. “It´s okay. My ribs hurt, but I will get that checked out tomorrow.”

Starlight shook her head. “I don´t understand, why Zecora would do that, though? Why did she attack Applebloom, it doesn´t make any sense. She was her pupil.” She tapped with her finger on the table. “There were no signs of aggression, nor did the Map show any friendship problem. It just...came out of nowhere.”

“Map? Friendship problem?” Zexis looked at Twilight.

“Oh, right. I have a map in the throne room, that shows whenever a friendship problem pops up in Equestria that needs fixing.”, she explained. “It´s the reason, why Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are currently out of town.”

Zexis nodded, even though he still wasn´t quite sure, what she was talking about. Then he looked at Starlight. “To that I may have an answer. It´s why I came here, actually.” He took another sip from the soup. “I think...Zecora got possessed. And not just some evil entity, but from the Everfree himself.”

Now even Starlight looked stunned. “How do you come to that conclusion?”, she asked.

“When I saw Zecora - both, when she attacked Applebloom and then later with Big Mac - she had with her some wraiths. That, and she could control the Timberwolves. Now, I am no expert on the field of golemancy, but I do know, that the Wolves are automatons created by the raw magic of the Everfree, right? Well, I think when she summoned those ghosts, those who died in the forest and bound the wolves to her, she...woke something up...”

“You mean...the Everfree Forest is controlling her!? It...it has a will?”, asked Twilight.

Zexis nodded. “You guys didn´t know that? It was something I recognized from back home. Old forest, ripe with magic. Sentience is only a small step, when so much energy resides in one place for such a long time.” That was lie, of course. But a convincing one, since wild magic had a number of unpredictable effects on its surroundings. In fact, if it wasn´t for his direct exposure to the malicious will of the Everfree, Zexis might have believed that theory himself.

Starlight however wasn´t convinced. “So, Zecora just used necromancy...for what? And why does she know it?”

“Honestly, I don´t know. Applebloom told me, she started behaving strangely a few weeks ago. Something about bad mojo. As to why she knows necromancy...well, it seemed there were a few things you didn´t know about Zecora...”

Twilight and Spike shared a worried look. “A few weeks ago. That would coincide with the energy surge, wouldn´t it?”, said Spike. Twilight nodded.

“What surge are you talking about?”

“Before you arrived in Ponyville, there was spike in the energy scale in the region where Tartarus is.”, explained Twilight, “Nothing really unusual and it only lasted for a moment. I only caught wind of it, because I was magically surveying the area at the time. Ever since Tireks escape I´ve been a little paranoid about security there. Anyway, there was an unsual type of magic at the time released into Mundus. I don´t know where it went, nor what type of magic it was. But I have been searching for it ever since.” She looked at Starlight, who went over her notes.

“We have been building a tracker device for it.”, the unicorn explained, showing Zexis the notes. They were filled with unintelligible scribbling, that didn´t make much sense for him. A small voice told him, he may be able to understand, if he were a little bit smarter. “At first, it was only a science project. Nothing important, just out of interest. But if what you say is true...”

“Then there might be more to it, than we thought.”, finished Twilight, looking very concerned.

“So thats what you have been building this entire time.”, said Zexis. In truth, this was a pleasant coincidence. This magic surge just gave him the perfect explanation and it would keep Twilights nose out of his business. He looked at Spike. “I remember you being pretty miffed about it.”

The little dragon scratched his scaled head, a little bit embarrassed. “Yeah, but we talked it out.”, he said, smiling happily. “Twilight promised to involve me more, now. Gonna help Starlight with the construction.”

Zexis nodded and smiled back. In truth, he was gritting his teeth. It seemed like his progress on Spikes corruption had met an unexpected roadblock. If his relationship to Starlight began to mend, it would make things a lot more difficult for Zexis. Of course, he didn´t show that. Instead he played the loyal friend, who was happy that things got straightened out.

“Back to Zecora.” Starlight got them back on track. “Where is she now? We can´t leave her like this!”

Zexis stroked his chin. “Last I saw her, she was in the Everfree. She chased us to its borders, then vanished. If the forest is possessing her, than it´s logical to assume, she is still there.”

“Then we will go and rescue her!”

“I would advise against that...” To Zexis suprise, it was Twilight who objected. The princess was looking down on the table, clearly not happy with what she just said. “The Everfree is huge and we have no idea, where she is.”

“We could organize searchparties.”, protested Starlight.

“Too risky. We are talking about Zecora here. Anypony outside of me, the girls or you would be in huge danger.”

“What about about a translocation spell?”

“Interference through wild magic. There is a reason the forest is not cartographed.”, answered Spike this time.

Starlight looked furious. “So, we are just going to leave her like this!?”

This time Zexis spoke up. “I cannot guess the intention of the forest. But I would make the educated assumption, that he wants to keep Zecora alive. Otherwise he would have disposed of her already. That means we have time to figure out a solution.” Then he shrugged his shoulders. “And who knows? Maybe he just wants to teach her a lesson and releases her after a while.”

“Maybe...” Twilight mumbled, before taking a pen. She took Starlights notes and began to scribble some mathematic equations on them. “If we calibrate it like this, we could use the Tracker to search for Zecoras magic. It would tell us, where she is, at least.”

Zexis looked sceptical. “I thought, wild magic makes that impossible?”

The alicorn nodded, but held up a finger. “Thats true, but the Tracker is designed by me to search for unusual energies by triangulating residual magic. If we can break through the magical interference of the Everfree, by distilling Zecoras magical signature through background radiation, we could....”

“Simple said, we could track her, if make some changes to the device. Because Twilight is awesome, like that.”, interrupted Spike, a light grin on his face.

Twilight looked embarrassed. “It´s not like that. I just apply some magical theory, thats all.”

“No, no. I do not pretend like I understood anything you just said, but if you are able to do that, then you are a genius.”, said Zexis, “I guess, you are even smarter than you look.” He flashed her a charming smile.

Twilight blushed heavily. “No...i-its nothing. I-I j-just...”, she stammered. She spun a string of hair around her finger and grinned sheepishly. It was absolutely adorable. “I...appreciate the compliment...”, she mumbled under her breath, hiding her eyes behind her bangs.

Zexis grinned at that. He began to like this princess more and more. He couldn´t wait for her to finally get out of these restricting clothes and worship his dick. The day, he would conquer Twilight Sparkle, would be the happiest day of his life. “Sound like a plan to me. Any complaints?”, he said, looking questioningly at Starlight.

The unicorn had her eyes narrowed and looked at him with open suspicion. Zexis smiled at her confused. Was it his flirting? Or had he tipped her off? She looked at the notes, Twilight had written over and studied her formulas. “I....guess it could work. Still doesn´t sit right with me, leaving a friend like that.”, she said.

“Nopony is helped, if you get into the Everfree and get yourself hurt or worse, captured. Sometimes taking the safe route is the best option.”, said Spike.

“Hm..hmm..” Starlight clearly wasn´t convinced, shooting a dissaproving glance at Spike. She sighed, however, and put the notes on the table again. “Well, if you say so. But!” And she looked Zexis directly into his eyes. “If it doesn´t work, we get in there with all the elements and rescue her, understood?”

Geez, she sound like a dictator..., thought Zexis, but nodded. “Of course, I will help you, when it comes to that. I was the one who found her like this, after all. It´s my responsibility, too.”

Starlight looked at him funny, but didn´t say anything. Instead she took her notes and stood up. “Better get to work then. It´s going to take a day or two. I want this finished as quickly as possible.” Then she stepped out the kitchen and left.

Zexis looked after her and whistled. “She is...pretty determined.”, he said, trying to find the right words, that didn´t say “huge bitch”. Spike chuckled and Twilight gave him an apologetic smile.

“She can be forceful at times. But she has our best interest in mind, I´m sure.”, defended the princess her student.

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. “Just give me a heads-up, when she is finished. I want to see how your tracker works. If you don´t mind.”, he said. When he got back to the soup, he found out to his dismay, that it had gotten cold during the time, they were talking. With sigh he put down the spoon.

Twilight nodded in agreement. “You can bet on that.”, she said, before hesitating. She looked to the side, blush on her face, before directing violet eyes back to Zexis. Her hand went through her hair, putting it behind her ear. Finally she opened her mouth. “You are...not what I expected, to be honest.”

Zexis blinked at that. “What were you expecting?”

Twilight grimaced and looked down on her hands again. “Honestly...not a lot. We always hear stories about zebras here. Mostly bad ones. Of course, I know you shouldn´t judge someone based on rumors. But...it shapes your perspective.” She stopped again, not wanting to continue. Then Spike laid his clawed hand on her arm, encouraging her. Twilight bit her lips. “I must admit, that many in Ponyville have...reservations about your species. It can´t be avoided in a rural place like this.”

She looked up again and this time gave Zexis a small, but downright magical smile. Not affection, no. But a certain kind of sympathy, mixed with all the adorable akwardness of a former bookworm. “But you proved them wrong. I heard about Birdhoof, how you are helping him. And your friendship is really helping Spike. And now Zecora...I can honestly say, that you are a good guy. Zebra, or not.” At seeing Spikes grimace, she stopped abruptly, putting her hands on her mouth. “Oh gosh, was that racist?”

Zexis shook his head. “A little bit, but thats okay. I appreciate the sentiment.” He again gave her a charming smile.

It earned him another blush. “Thank you. You really are a good friend.” She giggled and grinned at him. “And when the princess of friendship tells you that, that says something!”

Oh, dear. You have no idea...., thought Zexis.

For a while silence ruled the space between them, as Spike went to warm up the soup and they all ate together. After they were finished, Zexis stood up. “Thanks for the meal, Spike.”, he said, before turning to Twilight. “I would be going home now. Thank you for your time and please tell me, if you start with the tracking.”

Twiligh nodded and stood up as well. “Of course. And please tell me, if you find anything else about Zecora.”

“Will do.”

After that, they stood there. Twilight looked like, she wanted to say something. But then she just raised her hand in an awkward motion. Zexis understood and took it in a rather stiff handshake. He could Spike holding in his laughter. Heat now flushed through his face as well. “Well...I-I should be going then.”, he said, trying to save his suave demeanor, “Ehm...good night.”

With that he turned around and walked away.

...

Outside the castle, Zexis took a deep breath. Aside from the little embarrassment right now, it all went rather well. He found a satisfying explanation for Zecoras missing and he got in the good graces of Twilight. Sure the Tracker was annoying, but he could manage that. Once they told him, they were ready to start the thing, he could just drop Zecora somewhere in the Everfree and let them find her. They would most likely bring her to the hospital were his influence was already growing.

Spikes regression was a bummer, though. Zexis hadn´t spend enough time cementing his ideas in the little dragons head. That and Starlight. The unicorn was strangely opposed to him. Zexis wasn´t sure why, though. He hadn´t given away anything, so why the sudden suspicion? He would have to look into that.

Zexis yawned. But first, he needed to sleep. The fight with Zecora, the rape and all that had taken a lot of energy out of him. Considering he had to satisfy the girls tonight as well, it was best, when he went to bed early. I really need to get better at fucking, if I want to keep this pace up., he reminded himself, as he strolled back home.

With a big groan, Zexis threw himself on the bed. Below him he could hear Roseluck moan, as Lily ate her out. His hips killed him and his dick felt like gum, that was chewed through. Still, he was satisfyied in a way. With one eye open, he looked at black sealed book, he stole from Zecora. The runes were glowing stronger now.

Zexis propped himself up. As he got closer, he could see the runes glowing brighter. Their blue colour changed to red. Something in Zexis head said him, that this was bad news. Better he stored this thing away. His hand grabbed the book.

Unfortunately, exhaustion caught up with him. He stumbled and his finger hit the book. It toppled and fell from the night-table. Zexis reached for it in a reflex. His knuckles hit in the air and threw against his thighs. In his panic he flailed and the flat tip of his penis hit the back of the book.

The runes exploded in red light. Zexis closed his eyes in suprise, to not be blinded. Through his lid he could see the book now floating in midair, the runes cracking and breaking. Then with a roaring thunder, the seal shattered. Hard light flew like shards through the room and pages were flipping like mad, as the book was opened.

Zexis could hear a voice booming through the chaos, but he couldn´t understand it. It sounded strangely familiar.

Then the light coalesced, focused at a point before the book. Zexis carefully opened his eyes. Then suddenly the light erupted, shooting at him, hitting him in his groin. Searing pain flooded through his brain. Then darkness...

Author's Note

And there we go with the next chapter.

This one is again a split. I will tackle Applebloom and the school in the next chapter. You can of course still comment and post suggestion, as you please. Maybe some of you got new ideas, after reading this one.

Also, I decided to let you choose Zexis new abilities this time outside the Interlude. Mostly to give you something to do, while you wait for second part to arrive. I also thought that it might be better, to let spend the BP early, instead of waiting six or seven chapters. Give feedback, what you think is better.

What nature this book is? Ooooooh, seeecret. :pinkiehappy:

Other than that, I raised the difficulty. As you may have noticed, Spikes parameters changed. Events that you missed now, will sometimes halt your progress. That will not happen everytime, but enough to keep you on your toes.
There will also be now individuals, who will start actively working against you. Most of them without knowing, but still. No one said, this would be easy. :raritywink:

And before you ask, all Mane Six except Twilight are treated as Demi-Godesses in this setting. As to what these titles mean? That I will reveal in due time...

Other than that, have fun!

This went down excellently, and shows that for all Zexis' skills, having allies just works better for him in the long term.

I think the next step should be to immediately corrupt Apple Bloom. Big Mac is loyal right now, but he's hyped up, angry and still has drugs in his system. If we leave things too long he may start having second thoughts, and even if he ultimately doesn't revert back, living in the house of the element of Honesty puts Zexis at risk that he will crack unless he is truly loyal.

Right now Apple Bloom is in the hospital, which gives us ample opportunity to corrupt her in secret. Nurse Redheart can ward off Applejack and insist that Apple Bloom stay longer for observation purposes. During this time, have her food laced with the suggestion powder, and whenever she is in a receptive state, have Nurse Redheart explain her true role, even giving her hormone pills in the state to cement it. Once she has been broken, have Big Mac and Scootaloo break her fully, giving Big Mac his property and securing his loyalty, plus giving you an extra helper alongside Scootaloo for corrupting the children of Ponyville.

Ponyville Hospital, the next day

"I´m here."

Zexis turned around, when he heard Big Macs voice. The red stallion was walking down the corridor, waving his hand in a casual greeting. The zebra nodded back. They were standing before Appleblooms room. Zexis had let Redheart pull some strings to ensure that the filly was given a room for herself. It would prevent any interruptions from other patients.
"How was your morning?", asked Big Mac, as he stepped closer.

Zexis thought back to how Lily had found him unconscious on the floor, with the black book lying beside him. How his crotch had burned and itched. And the book itself...

"Rather well. Yours?", he lied.

The stallion grunted. "Had to help AJ. She is still worried sick. Can´t concentrate on the chores." He scratched his chin and sighed in annoyance. "Gets on my nerves, to be honest."

"Well, considering what happened it´s understandable, don´t you think?"

"Maybe. But the farm won´t run on its own.", replied Big Mac. Then he looked towards the door. "The sooner Applebloom recovers the better. How is the plan?"

Zexis looked at him. He still wasn´t sure if Big Mac was to be relied upon. "You´re sure you’re fine with tampering with her mind? I mean, it´s your little sister..."

"Aaah, don´t give me that horseshit!", interrupted him Big Mac, "I want her obedient and aware of her place. No more running around, no more Crusader bullshit and the like. If it takes breaking her stupid little mind to do that, then fine!"

Zexis nodded. It was still amazing how much of a turn Big Macs personality had taken. Not that he minded, but it was still shocking. It seemed like these feelings had been boiling for long time under the surface. And now, after the barriers holding them back were broken, Big Mac indulged completely in his dominant urges. It was interesting to witness.

The zebra grabbed the handle and opened the door. As they entered the room, they could see Applebloom. The filly lay sleeping peacefully in the hospital bed. Beside her sat Redheart, studying a chart. She wore her previous nurse uniform, not the fetishized kind and only a little make-up, to accentuate her full lips. Zexis was glad to see that she had followed his instructions to be less conspicuous.

As she saw them, she stood up and bowed deeply. "Everything is proceeding as planned, Master.", she said submissively.
Zexis nodded. "Explain to Big Mac what you are doing."

Redheart turned to the red stallion. "The master has given me some drugs, the purpose of which is to imprint our commands indelibly upon her mind . They will be applied to her in regular intervals, along with the verbal suggestions. The process is divided into multiple stages. The first one will be to undermine the subjects mental defences and make her more susceptible to the upcoming changes. The second stage will involve suggestions that will ensure her submissiveness towards the male sex and discourage her from seeking outside help."

Big Mac scratched his chin again, this time in thought. "Sounds good. But I want my imprint on the whole thing.", he said. He stepped closer to his sleeping sister. His big hand stroked her cheek. "She is mine, after all. I want her to listen to me."

Zexis looked at Redheart, who took up the clue. "Of course, Mr. Macintosh. The third stage will involve your personal suggestions. Anything you want to imprint on the subjects mind will be done at that stage. You can make her your own little slave, if you want to." The last sentence she said in a sultry tone, that Big Mac didn´t miss if his grin was any indication.

"Oh, I will. My own little naughty sister...."

Zexis cleared his throat. "So, I guess you have no complaints?", he asked.

Big Mac shrugged. "Not really, no. Sounds good to me. When will she be discharged?"

Redheart looked at her clipboard. "In about two days. The third stage will begin tomorrow. I will oversee her, so no worries about outside interference."

The farmer clapped his hands. "Good, that will get me AJ off my back.", he said with a satisfied grin. He patted Appleblooms head, running with his fingers through her mane. "Mine...", he mumbled.

Then he turned around to Zexis. "Is that everything?"

The zebra nodded. "Yes, for now. Once we are finished with Applebloom we move on the Applejack. I already have a plan for her."

"Can´t I just rape her? Tie her up and fuck her in the barn? I think a few days should do the trick. Would certainly stop her nagging."

Again, Zexis was astonished how casual Big Mac mentioned things like raping his own sister. This was not a bad thing. But it was worrisome in a sense, as it made the stallion rather unpredictable. "And how would you explain her absence to her friends? How would you prevent them from visiting her?", he countered. "besides, do you really think Applejack will be broken down by physical violence alone?"

Big Mac looked him in the eye. For a moment, silence reigned between the two of them. Then he looked away. "...I guess not. It´s just...I want this done as soon as possible.", he admitted. "Seeing her every day, knowing I could plow that ass or slap her every time she speaks up. It´s so frustrating!"

Zexis smiled in understanding. "I get you. But patience leads to victory. A few days won´t kill you. And besides..." He looked at Redheart and grinned lecherously. "If you need to get off, I´m sure the good nurse is all too happy to help you."

Big Mac looked at the white mare, who giggled and folded her hand behind her back, pushing her breasts forward. "Hmmm, that’s true.", he said. Finally, he sighed. "But not today. Have to get back to Sweet Apple Acres." He looked at Zexis. "What about you?"

"Oh, I still need a check-up. The bruises from yesterday. After that it´s over to the school."

The stallion looked at him and nodded. "another project, hmm?" He grinned evilly. Then he threw one last glance at Applebloom, licked his lips. He turned to the door and walked out, with a wave of goodbye.

Zexis waited until he was sure he was out of earshot. He turned around to Redheart. "You already planted the Loyalty Phrases?"

The nurse nodded. "It´s still unfinished, but she is breaking down. I think it is going to take another dozen repeats, but then she will be unquestioningly obedient to you, master."

"Good." Zexis smiled. This was his contingency. Should Big Mac ever act against him, he could use Applebloom to sabotage him. He wasn´t going to interfere with the stallions plans for his family, as long as they didn’t conflict with his plans. But he figured it wouldn´t hurt to have something to fall back on. After all, one couldn´t be too careful.

He stepped towards the door. "Have you time for a check-up?"

"Sure."

Redheart took her clipboard and followed him outside. They walked down the corridor and into her office. Shutting the door behind him, Zexis began to strip down. As he was removing his trousers, Redheart looked at him quizzically. "What?", he asked.

"Nothing.", she said, "It´s just that most of the time when stallions show me their junk, it´s because they managed to get a venereal disease. Is that why we are doing this?"

Zexis shook his head. "No, just an accident yesterday. I want to make sure that nothing is wrong. I need this tool after all." He pulled the trousers down and propped up his big shaft.

Redheart bit her lip at the sight. Her thighs quivered and she pressed them together. Then she coughed and tried to maintain a professional expression. Zexis could still see her need. As she touched his torso, looking at his ribs, he decided to move the conversation to something less private. "How is the corruption of the staff going?"

"Oh, nothing major so far. I think Dr. Sharp Needle might be a good candidate to start with. He constantly checks me out." She applied pressure on Zexis left side, earning herself a grunt from the zebra at the pain. "There is also Nurse Lemon Liver and Dr. Horse. There are rumors that they like each other. I could look into that."

"Do that. Begin with Needle. Try to amplify his...ugh...lust and convince him to make a move on the other nurses.", said Zexis, "Also go for the cafeteria. Some Hormone Pills should do wonders there...ouch!" He wheezed, pulling back from Redheart’s prodding. "Be a little more gentle!", he demanded.

Redheart gave him a look. "I´m sorry Master, but do you want me to do my job properly or not?"

Zexis gritted his teeth. Then after a few seconds, he sighed. She was right, of course. He had asked for this and if it was going to be of any help, he had to bear the pain. In a sense, it was also interesting to see that, despite her corruption, Redheart was still a professional nurse. Which was good. After all, it would do him no good if the hospital collapsed, because the staff was too busy screwing each other. He looked at Redheart. "Just get it over with."

...

Finally, after twenty minutes, they were finished. Redheart wrote something down on her clipboard. "Nothing is broken, thankfully. You have some bruises, but no internal damage and your ribs are fine. Sturdy body. As expected of you master." She smiled, before her gaze traveled downwards. "Your...penis is also functioning. No damages, no magical interference."

Zexis sighed in relief. He stood up and reached for his trousers, but before he could take them, Redheart moved in close. Her expression was sultry and she pressed her torso against him. "So... about the fee…" She opened a button, giving Zexis a clear view of her cleavage.

The zebra snorted. "For a moment, I forgot what a slut you were, Nurse.", he said with a dirty grin. Redheart giggled and grabbed his naked hips, letting her hand travel over his well-shaped arse. Then she playfully yelped as her master grabbed her and threw her on the examination table. "Time to give you your just reward..."

Now, as for what’s to come next. This is where I depart from many. The situation in the Castle of Friendship has slipped past our grasp, at least for the moment... at least for Spike. Unfortunate, but we had to make some sacrifice. As an upside, perhaps him reconnecting with Twilight Sparkle pushed Starlight further away from the princess. She seems angry enough for it.
However, I would advise against panic-induced, blind flailing in that direction. We would be starting more or less from scratch. It’s more important to strengthen our grip on what we can get a better handle on, such as the schoolhouse and the Apple Farm. For the former, there have been ideas noted in the past. Rope classes, trust exercises, lots of fun things to lead the younglings to proper debauchery. And with Apple Bloom in the hospital, Zexis can probably convince Cheerilee to give him even greater responsibility—and influence!—when she’s so worried over her poor, injured student.

Table Spike and the castle for now. The school is more relevant. Not only because we already have one servitor in place there (Scootaloo), but because it's another way to manipulate Apple Bloom, who will be in a confused and hurt state. She'll be vulnerable, more vulnerable than she will be with Applejack watching over her. And we need to corrupt Apple Bloom as Mac has come to join our side due to this very promise.
Also, I admit to finding the schoolcolts and schoolfillies rather interesting targets. Unless Zexis' influence is completely purged, even if he should fail, these ponies will carry his teachings to wherever they're drawn in life—the seeds of a new Equestria.
I want Zexis to try to find out any existing crushes and/or who the schoolponies think would make a good couple before he shackles them together as colt-master and filly-slave, but... I also want to hear if other Watchers have preferences. Let's call it slavery-shipping!
Lord Fimbulwinter, you mention Rumble and Pip for Diamond Tiara. Two colts for one slut, though? Throw in at least Silver Spoon for good measure! Pipsqueak has already had experience in how good it feels to humiliate Tiara. In public even! Rumble is obviously attracted to Scootaloo, whom he can't have, so Silver Spoon will be the consolation prize. She spent her whole life being 'the other filly', it's not like it'll be new to her. And her Cutie Mark is a spoon—she's a tool, she needs to be used.
Furthermore, Zexis has yet to find out what's wrong with Snips and Snails. As class clowns and believed to be idiots, what are their options? I've come to enjoy pairing them with other potential social outcasts, such as Twist with her lisp, Babs the former horrible bully in need of punishment, and Zipporwhill, whose accent shows she's not from around Ponyville. At the very least, the latter is an attractive target, as it appears her family is rather well-off and therefore another source of possible funds. But I would like to hear your thoughts, if you do have any!

At the School, later

With a skip to his step Zexis walked towards the schoolhouse. He had left Redheart in her office. She would get up after she rested a bit. And cleaned herself up. A shower would be needed, probably. Zexis himself was rather fresh, even after that rather intense session. Tired, yes. But not exhausted like yesterday. He had been able to bring Redheart to climax quicker than usual, even in succession. Surprising, after his performance yesterday.

Then again, it was entirely possible we was getting better with practice. After all, he did have a lot of experience now. It was just a matter of time until he would become a master of the carnal arts... He had probably just had an epiphany about which "buttons" to press to get a mare off. Yeah, that was probably it!

So lost in his own reflections was he, that Zexis didn´t see Mrs. Cheerilee standing at the schoolgate until he was only few feet away. He looked up and saw her looking rather...dismayed. He greeted her and walked towards her. "Good day, Mrs. Cheerilee. Is something the matter?"

The teacher shook his hand. She didn´t meet his eyes. "Good morning, Mr. Chikelu.", she said. "How is Applebloom?"

She hadn´t answered his question, noticed Zexis. That probably meant something had happened that she didn´t want to discuss in public. Not good. He decided to not press the matter. "Better. The doctors say, she will be on her hooves in about two days. No lasting damage though." He smiled reassuringly at her.

Cheerilee gave a sigh of relief. "Thats wonderful news.", she said, finally smiling a little. The whole affair seemed to have weighed heavily on her mind. Then she looked again at Zexis and the familiar, almost shameful look returned. "There is also another matter. It would be good, if we could discuss that one… in private."

Zexis nodded. So, he was right. Something had happened. "Right now? I have a class..."

"Oh, that’s right, you are holding Mr. Time Turners History lesson today. I forgot about that.", she said. Then she thought a little. "After school would be soon enough, then. When the students are gone," she added meaningfully, looking at him for approval.

Zexis nodded. So it was something she didn´t want the students to hear. Perhaps that indicated it involved one of them. Likeliest scenario, one out of his class. "Sure, no problem."

"Then I won´t keep you." Mrs. Cheerilee stepped to the side, letting him in. "Just... no, nevermind. We’ll see each other later ." With that she walked off, towards her own classroom.

Zexis looked after her. He was worried, of course. Not because one of the fillies or colts might had gotten themselves into trouble, no. But that they had somehow dragged him into it as well. He needed that position as teacher. Losing it would mean that he would have a much harder time influencing the younger generation. His hand traveled to his pocket, patting the pouches of powder in it. "Seems like we have to do damage control.", he murmured.

Then he turned around and walked to his classroom. First the lesson, then Mrs. Cheerilees corruption.

...

"Welcome to history and mythology, class.", proclaimed Zexis, to the room full of attentive foals.

"Good day, Mr. Chikelu.", came it from in unison from the fillies and colts. As usual everypony was here, except Applebloom of course. Zexis saw Scootaloo in the back. She appeared to be whispering something into Rumbles’ ear. The colts blushed and chuckled nervously.

"First things first. Mr. Time Turner sadly can´t teach you today, as he is...busy. Something about Wimey-Stuff, I didn´t quite catch it. He will be back in a few days. Until then I will take over for him.", Zexis said, going over the notes given to him, "Also, Applebloom will be back soon. She is mostly recovered now and is only waiting for the last...check-ups."
Scootaloo snickered in the background. Zexis shot her a warning glance and she smiled knowingly back. The little bitch really asked for trouble. No matter, back to the lesson. "Now where were you last time?"

Dinky raised her hand. "We wanted to begin Mythology today. Gods and stuff, I think.", she answered.

Zexis raised an eyebrow. They tackled that so late? Back in Zebrica it was one of the first things they taught you. Then again, considering Princess Celestia’s attitude towards ruling, it would make sense that she didn´t place much importance on it.

"Alright then. Let´s start with the basics.", he said, turning to the chalkboard. He began to draw a big triangle on it, before dividing it into four parts. "As you know, there exist powerful beings in Mundus. Monsters, demons and the like. One group of them is of particular importance to us. These are the gods. They exist in various forms and sizes, but they all have certain things in common with which we recognize them. Can anypony tell me what these criteria are?"
Sweetie Belle raised her hand. She looked downtrodden, but focused. "Immortality, Power and....something about prayers?", she said, a little bit unsure.

"You mean Veneration.", helped her Zexis, writing the three words on the board. "But yes, gods are by rule immortal toward the passing of time. They don´t age and possess a body at its physical height. Their individual appearance can vary, of course. Wodan is good example of a god that decided to appear as an old elk, but that is only a cosmetic choice. It is also important to know that they are not immortal in the sense that they can´t die. Heavy injuries can cripple a god or even kill them. Wodan with his missing eye, shows that gods can be hurt, though it is debated whether he lost it voluntarily, or in combat. That being said, harming them is very, very difficult."

"The second criteria is Power. Any god, no matter how minor a deity they may be, surpasses the limits of a mortal. Again, this can take many forms. Be it magic, strength or mental capacities. I believe you all know the saying "every genius has some godhood in them"… This is true to a certain extent. Many great minds turned out to be connected in some way or another to gods, be it by blood or otherwise. Consequently, this criteria turns out to be the most hotly debated among experts, as it is difficult to differentiate between a very talented mortal and one with divine lineage."

"So that´s why they banned Ravenbeak from the Equestrian Games...", commented Rumble.

"What do you mean?", asked Zexis.

"Ravenbeak, from Alba. He was an athlete who was banned from the games, because it turned out he was a great-great grandchild of some griffon goddess. Made him faster than almost anyone.", explained the colt.

Zexis nodded. "That’s a good example, and illustrates the complications that can arise from such interference. On a side note, the griffon goddess you refer to is probably The Morrigan. The Morrigan, mind you. She gets angry, if you forget that."

"Now the third and most important criteria is Veneration. This plays out in a different way than you might expect. It is common misconception that praying lends power to a god. This is a gross oversimplification, I´m afraid."

Twist raised her hand. "So my prayers don´t help Princess Luna fend off nightmares?"

Zexis shook his head. "Yes and no. You see, it is a bit more complicated than that. Gods possess something we call dominions. These are certain areas of creation for which they are responsible. They can be something physical like Storms and Thunder or something abstract like Love. From these dominions, they draw their power. As long as the dominions stay strong and relevant in Mundus, a god can keep tapping into this pool of energy to increase his power or heal his wound. Prayers can support these dominions. The more Sentients pray towards a dominion or a god that rules over it, the stronger it can get."

Again Twist raised her hand. "But, isn´t that a bit unfair?"

"In what way?"

"Well, that would mean that a god of winter would always be strong, because there will always be winter, while a god of peace would grow weak when a war breaks out.", mused the filly, holding her glasses.

Zexis nodded. "That is the case. In general, gods who possess a physical dominion have greater power than those with abstract ones. But I would like to also point out that abstract dominions can get stronger just as fast as they can get weaker. If ponies would begin to generate a lot of love, it would make a goddess of love immensely powerful. That’s where the word Veneration comes from. In contrast, a physical dominion usually stays the same. It is a certain balance, you could say."

He pointed at Twist. "Princess Luna is a special case. She is one of the few goddesses who possesses multiple dominions. In her case the physical dominion of Night and the abstract dominion of Dream. So you could say your prayers do help, as they strenghten her."

Twist smiled at that. Then Pipsqueak spoke up: "But doesn´t make her that very strong?"

"Well, kinda." Zexis looked at Time Turners notes. "Dream is a weak dominion, and while Night is generally regarded as one of the essential parts of creation it suffers under the fact, that not many sentient species are active during it. That is a complex issue. To put it simple, Lunas is equal to her sister because she holds two dominions."

The colt looked as if he wasn´t sure whether to be proud of the Night Goddess, or disappointed. Zexis couldn´t quite help with that. To this day scholars were debating how much influence Dream had over Night and vice versa. And asking Princess Luna wasn´t really an option, because one couldn´t discuss the matter without mentioning the War of the Sisters. That made the whole debate a very thin ice field. In the end, they decided to declare her equal in power to Princess Celestia. It didn´t help in stopping the discussions.

"Anyway, that´s a topic for another time.", said Zexis, moving on. He returned to the triangle. "Now that we know what makes a god, we need to learn what types of gods exist. The simplest and easiest system for that is to divide them by power and importance. The first type are Demigods." He tapped on the largest part, at the bottom. "They are the broadest group, because we include in them divine descendants like Ravenbeak, and heroes who unlocked power beyond mortals either through artifacts or other magical means. This also the only group that doesn´t necessarily have immortality. Some of them do, but it is the exception rather than the rule. They are the weakest gods, but also the only status most mortals can achieve through their own skill. Can somepony name me some examples?"

"Hoofchulain!", said Rumble

"Horcules!", piped Zipporwhill, hovering on her seat.

"Very good. Also, the Elements of Harmony, for those who didn´t know.", added Zexis, writing down the examples in the pyramid.

Sweetie frowned in disbelief. "My sister is a goddess? Really?"

Zexis chuckled. "Yes, but that would only apply when she is acting as Element, rather than in her daily life. Maybe you should tell her?"

The filly shook her head fervently. "Oh no. I would never hear the end of it."

Zexis shrugged and continued. "The next group are the Lesser Gods. These are the second largest groups, usually involving young gods and goddesses or ones with weak dominions. They act as servants for the next group most of the time or their retinue in more feudal societies. Very few of them act in their own right, but they do not possess much influence most of the time or rule over a remote area of the world. Examples would include Lady Arc of Prance or Wolfhang Mopawrt of Pawstria. Also, Princess Twilight is regarded as a Lesser Goddess."

"Now the third group is the most important one for us. These are the Greater Gods. They possess essential or strong dominions and are usually the most well known gods. Most of them are Rulers and have taken one or two nations under their wing. Some let their subject govern themselves, only intervening in certain moments, while other, like Princess Celestia, take a more active role. As with the Lesser Gods, the power between them can vary. But they all have in common that their action or absence thereof has a direct influence on our lifes. The best example is Princess Celestia herself with her dominion over the Day and Princess Luna. There are also The Morrigan, Fenrir or Lung, just to name a few."

"The last group is the one we know the least about. These are the Overdeities. You may know them as Creators. They have shaped Mundus and the everything around it. They dwarf all gods in power, but are also the least active. Some are said to be dead, killed in the Sin War, others are rumored to have left this world to its own devices. The very few of which we know of tend to not involve themselves with matters of mortals, unless it threatens Mundus itself. I doubt any of you know examples..."

"Faust!"

Zexis turned around, eyebrows high in surprise. "Come again?"

Button Mash looked like he wanted to disappear under the table, wringing his hands and looking at his hooves. "I said...Faust, Mr. Chikelu. She is said to be the Goddess of Harmony and she has created ponykind.", he mumbled.

"How do you know that?", asked Zexis, looking at his notes. There it was. Faust, Goddess of Fate and Harmony.

Button shrank down, uncomfortable with the sudden attention. "I-I... played Orges and Oubliettes. She is mentioned there and I-I looked her up in the library after that."

Rumble chuckled. "Neeeeerd....", he whispered, loud enough that everypony heard it.

Zexis frowned. "Well, this Nerd, Rumble, just got himself an A. I would suggest you look into some books as well, if you want to improve your grades."

The fillies giggled at that rebuttal and the Pegasus colt choked on his commentary. Button Mash beamed with joy at the sudden approval. Zexis gave him a warm smile. He had begun to like teaching these foals.

"Now, on to the historical accounts of gods. Let’s begin with the Minotaur Pantheon...."

The bell rang. The fillies and colts took their things and bolted out of classroom, glad that school was over. Zexis heard some of them talking animatedly about the things they had just learned. Especially Pipsqueak and Twist, who ran over to Button Mash and started bombarding him with questions. The colt looked torn between awkwardness and joy. Zexis chuckled and packed his things.

As he left the classroom, he saw Mrs. Cheerilee waiting outside. His smile vanished. "I guess, now is the time.", he said as he stepped towards her.

The mare nodded. "Yes. Join me in the teachers room."

With that she led him down the corridor and into the empty teachers room. The staff was already gone, most of them with colts and fillies outside, going home. Mrs. Cheerilee sat down on the couch that was usually reserved for Parent-Talks. Not a good sign.

"Shall I make some tea?", asked Zexis.

"Yes, that would be lovely.", said Mrs. Cheerilee.

Zexis walked over to the heater and put a full kettle on it. As he added some tea-leaves, he also took a pouch of Suggestion Powder. Then he poured the tea into two cups, before adding a generous dosage of Powder into one of them. Then he turned around and put them on the table, before sitting down on the other end. "Alright, what is the problem."

"The problem is Scootaloo.", said Mrs. Cheerilee. "She was always a bit of a wildfang, I admit. But now I fear she has gone too far."

That fucking bitch! Zexis cursed in his mind. So, the useless filly actually fucked up. Not that he hadn´t expected it, but because he had been so focused on Zecora and the Apple family, he hadn´t gotten the time to give the masochistic slut some oversight. It seemed that had come back to bite him in the arse.

Still, he remained calm. "What has happened?"

Mrs. Cheerilee didn´t look him in the eye. She was clearly uncomfortable with whole situation. "I saw her...engaging, yes… let’s call it that, some of the colts. Now, I know she is in that age and it was bound to happen sooner or later, but...." She sighed, before laying her hands on the table. "She has...sucked off her classmates."

Zexis said nothing for a few seconds, while he processed that information. So Scootaloo had done what he asked of her, in a sense. She had begun corrupting her classmates. It was unfortunate that Cheerilee had observed it. The question was how big the damage was. "That is grave news. But how does that involve me? I´m just a substitute-teacher."

Mrs. Cheerilee took a small sip from her tea. "Well, she has shown this kind of behavior, since you began teaching. Now, I´m not saying you are responsible for this, but there will be questions about this and some will look at you for answers."
Zexis nodded. That was bad. Cheerilee had made immediately the connection. She didn´t fault him directly, but it was clear that somepony less tolerant would pounce on that. "So, I assume I will questioned by the schoolboard now?"

"No, not yet. I wanted to clear the matter with you personally, before I involve anypony else. It could just as well be a misunderstanding. I don´t want to jump to conclusions.", answered Cheerilee, taking a bigger sip from her cup
A deep sigh of relief came from Zexis. "Phew, that makes things easier.", he said.

Mrs. Cheerilee looked at him confused. "How do you meant that?", she asked, drinking more from her tea.
Zexis smiled wickedly. "I mean, that I can stop you from spreading that rumor."

"W-what are talking about? I will not...." The rest of Cheerilee’s protests died down, as the powder kicked in and her eyes glazed over. Slowly she put down her empty tea-cup and stared into the distance.

Zexis leaned back on his couch and grinned. "Now then, let’s begin.", he said, cracking his knuckles, before standing up and walking over to the pretty teacher. "First things first, you don´t see an issue with Scootaloo’s behaviour.", he commanded.

"I-I don´t see.... No, I do see an issue...school morale..." Cheerilee frowned.

Zexis was undeterred. "No, you don´t see an issue. Scootaloo is a slut, and you don´t care about her enough, to mind that."

"No... No! She...i-is important...I can´t...."

The zebra leaned down, right next to her ear. "You never cared. All these fillies.... they don´t interest you in the slightest.", he whispered. His voice dripped with power, he didn´t know he had. "You are proud to be a teacher, but you don´t mind sluts and whores. You know it is inevitable, that these things happen."

"I-It is? No...I-I don´t....maybe...you´re right..." Her protest was dying down. Her expression was one of mild horror, as if she was a little bit aware, of what was happening to her. But in the end, she was powerless to stop it.

Zexis pulled out his Hormone Pills. With one hand he opened Cheerilee’s mouth, with the other he put a single pill on her tongue. The mare swallowed and the zebra grinned. "Let´s get you in the right mood.", he said and sat down next to her.
His hands traveled up her torso, reaching her vest. With a few quick flicks, he opened the buttons and ripped her blouse open. Her C-Cups bounced free and without hesitation Zexis began to fondle them. His hands massaged the lavender flesh expertly, almost on instinct. Soon, Cheerilee began to breathe heavier and Zexis could see her face taken on deeper shade of red.

"All these restrictions. All these rules. You always wanted to be free of them, just for a moment. To indulge in the adoration of your pupils. I ´m sure somepony like you always has some colts who crush on you, right? Imagine it, free from obligations, showing everypony your true face. Not having to hide anymore. Wouldn´t that be nice?"

Cheerilee panted, her arousal coursing through her body, unchecked. The barriers holding back her libido breaking down slowly. "I-I guess...I´m n-not sure..."

Zexis got bolder. His fingers grabbed the mares nipples. First he just touched them, applying a bit pressure. Cheerilee moaned quietly. Then she yelped, as he began to pinch them. Before she could get louder, Zexis leaned towards her and kissed her on her lips. Cheerilee moaned something, but soon gave up, as she melted in the zebras embrace. His tongue exploring her mouth, wrestling her down, dominating her completely.

Zexis broke the kiss and looked at the dazed, horny mare. "Scootaloo is a slut. You don´t care, you don´t mind. Because in secret you are one too. Wanting to be loved, to be taken. To get free.", he whispered.

Cheerilee swayed, blinked helplessly. All strength was fading. Her resistance evaporating. She sat there, saliva dropping from her lips, before finally saying: "Y-Yes...I-I am a slut....I want to do that too...to suck...to fuck...."

Zexis grinned. His hand went downwards, under her black skirt. His fingers trailed the inside of her thighs, before finding her honeypot. Wet and hot. Cheerilee wimpered, as he softly touched her down there. "I will give you anything you want. You know that. You saw it. Me, the zebra, the outsider. I can give you what desired for so long."

"Yeeees....I know...you give me...."

"In turn, you are willing to do everything. I set you free and you serve my every need.", said Zexis, cementing this last command.

Cheerilee didn´t even hesitate, her will broken, and nodded. "Of course...whatever you ask...."

Zexis grinned openly and chuckled. "Good, good. Let´s repeat the whole thing, before we are done."

...

Mrs. Cheerilee blinked. She sat in the couch, Zexis on the other side, looking at her questioningly. "Everything alright?", he asked.

"Yes, yes...I must have dozed off, sorry.", apologized the teacher, shaking her head, to get some clarity.

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. "No problem. You must be tired after that long day. It´s understandable.", he said, sipping his own tea. "Now, where were we?"

Mrs. Cheerilee thought. "I think...I wanted to inform you about Scootaloo’s behaviour, but to be honest, I don´t really see an issue with it anymore. Weird."

Zexis looked up. The hint of mischief in his eyes. "How so?"

Cheerliee shrugged. "Because I don´t care what that little bitch does in her free time. If she wants to whore herself out like in Manehattan, she can be my guest. I don´t waste my time on sluts!", she said with a sneer. She took her own tea-cup, which was mysteriously full again, and drank. For a moment, she hesitated, but then spat out. "In fact, forget what I said. Even if you are involved, what you do to the fillies in your classroom doesn´t concern me. If you want to fuck them, that´s your right! You are their teacher, for fucks sake!"

Zexis needed to bite his tongue to not laugh out loud. He had refilled Cheerilee’s Tea-cup and put a second pill into it, in the hopes that her changed mental state would lower her inhibition to her more ugly feelings. And it had worked perfectly! "So, you see no issue, if I propose a new class? After hours?", he asked, carefully.

Cheerilee looked at him. "Depends on the class. If it´s going to be some stupid club, you can forget-"

"I actually thought about Re-education.", interrupted Zexis.

The mares’ eyes narrowed. "In what way?"

"Well, I think it would benefit us, if we bring some certain freedom in the curriculum. Officially it would just some additional material for alchemy. Unofficially however..." He looked Cheerilee deep into the eyes and a dirty grin crept up his lips. ".... what would you say about some practical sex-education?"

Cheerilee blinked. Then slowly, she leaned forward. "Just so I get that. You want to break the Purity Laws? Turn our fillies into sluts and our colts into lustfilled studs?" She got closer, her breathing quickening and her face flushing. "Maybe even take active part in it, fucking them in open daylight? Making them understand the freedom and joys of debaucherous flesh!?"

She was now only inches away from Zexis, on the table and breathing like a bitch in heat. Zexis snickered and leaned back to get some space. "I actually thought of models and lessons in biology. But with the time I will surely get to your proposals.", he said.

Cheerilee snorted, backing off and lounging on the couch. Gone was the proper mare, he posture now more akin to a bitchy first-time teacher. "Hmph, I don´t know. The school-council won´t agree. And what do I get out of it?", she asked dismissively, opening the first few buttons of her vest like an afterthought.
Zexis saw it and took the clue. "Well, I´m sure you can manage the council. And for your reward..." He parted his legs, letting a hand trail over the outline of his raging boner, as it pressed against the fabric. "...I´m sure we can arrange something..."

Cheerilee blushed heavily, but her eyes were full of hunger. She licked her lips and chuckled. Her hand opened her blouse slowly and she threw Zexis a sultry, lust-addled look. "Oh, now we are talking.", she said.
Zexis laughed silently as the pretty teacher, now utterly corrupted, crawled over the table and put her lips on his for second time of the day.

Author's Note

And here is the next part. Sorry that it took so long, but I was switching jobs and combine that with summerheat and it becomes really difficult to put something on paper. :pinkiesick:

Anyway, I was suprised how clear cut the decision this time was. It seemed a lot you rather take the small long-time bonuses instead of the big joker. Interesting...
Still, it means I will probably do that again. This way we have some nice balance between interlevel bonuses and actual level-ups.

I also took the time to give some more Lore about Mundus and the Gods. Please fell free to give feedback and/or ask questions.

Oh, and what the book did? Hmmmm..... :ajsmug:

Also, great thanks to trademark2, who edited this chapter and took it upon himself to edit the earlier chapters of my stories as well. I will put them online as soon as I can.

So, now everything is open again. Cheerilee is corrupted and Applebloom on the way to. I hope you liked this one and comment again feverishly.

Have fun.

Bits and Pieces

The Flower Shop

Zexis gazed down at the book lying open on the table in front of him. It looked like any other book, the white pages filled with line upon line of ink penned in a flowing, elegant script, but aside from that, not much else. There were no sudden pulses of energy. No painful curses, nor even glowing runes. The black book from Zecoras cottage now was just that....a simple black book.

Zexis sat on a chair in his room. It was early morning, and below him, he could hear the happy, industrious sounds of the flower girls setting up shop for the day. He heard Roseluck moan in her bed, as she got herself off with a dildo. After one or two climaxes her raging libido would be calm enough so that she could work in the shop again… for a time a least. So far, she had only managed about two hours before her insatiable lust drove her back to her room to cum again, and again. It wasn´t perfect, but it was manageable, and less conspicuous than having to pretend she was sick all the time.
On the desk before the zebra laid an array of numerous different things. Timberwolf-bark, magic stones, old animal bones, as well as carving tools, incenses and a knife. And at the heart of it all lay the book.

Zexis had finally worked up the courage to open it again, after returning from Cheerilee’s "talk" yesterday. It hadn´t blasted him, which was at least a good start. The runes had also stopped glowing. In fact, it had lost any traces of the magic it had once held. Zexis theorized that the runes had probably served as a lock, or seal of some sort. Which begged the question, why had he been able to open it? Maybe it had something to do with being a zebra? He shook his head. It wasn´t important right now. The book was unsealed and its content open to him. And what content it was...

The book had turned out to be an old text about enchantments and runes. Its origin was unclear. The writing was Zebrican, but in an archaic dialect that was difficult to decipher. He supposed some of the more scholarly zebras would be able to more easily understand it, but Zexis hadn´t spent enough time around old dusty tomes to be very familiar with such things. What he had managed to translate so far had revealed a true treasure trove of knowledge. Spells old and forgotten, or even outright forbidden lay within, along with detailed instruction for various types of enchantments and the like.

So, naturally, Zexis had begun to use them immediately. And while the translating was difficult, he realized to his surprise that the actual application went far easier than he had imagined. He understood the underlying principles almost instinctually. The theory was difficult, he was just not intelligent enough for it, but he was nevertheless able to produce something by the time he went to bed. It seemed like he was quite talented as an enchanter!

He looked at the small glowing stone beside him. The blue surface was carved with rings and winding lines, creating a whirl of pulsing energy that flowed just underneath the surface. A mana-stone. A tool to store energy. One could pick it up and transfer magic into it or absorb it. Simple, but useful, with many applications. This one was small and created within a few hours, so it couldn´t take much energy. But later on, Zexis was sure he would be able to craft stones that could take in huge amounts of magic.

His eyes went to the Timberwolf-bark. This wood had a very high magical density, having been infused with wild energies of the Everfree for centuries. That made it prime-material for enchanting, though Zexis had a feeling that there might be some side-effects to crafting with it. After all, the more powerful the material, the more difficult the crafting process. For this reason, he had decided to leave it for later. He wanted to have a clear plan for this one. No use wasting resources in experiments.

His hoof flipped through the pages of the book. Many of them he couldn´t decipher, but that would be only a matter of time. No, what interested him more were the little notes scrawled in the margins of some pages. They were of more modern writing, but crude, as if the author had just learned how to write. They told a very interesting story...

Dear diary,
This is my first entry. It´s forbidden I know, but the spirits will forgive me. I put some bowls of smoking Bawacca outside, just in case. But I need to write. I need to preserve the story of our tribe. Words die, if no one is there to speak them. But words bound on pages last. I made sure to write into the Forbidden One. The priest doesn´t open it and he doesn´t know I cracked the seal, so he will not know what I did.
You will now ask me why. Why anger the spirits? Why risk the sacrilege of using the written word as an Uninitiated and a mare as well? Why defy the decree of Father and disobey the Law of Zara Shuku?
Because somepony needs to know the truth. Needs to know what the Unspeakable did to us. What the Mahrkaki are still doing to us. Because I cannot bear the thought of us vanishing, with only the spirits to tell our tale.
I hear Father calling for me. I don´t have much time. I will come back, write more. I will tell you everything.
Zecora, Daughter of Zambi, Chief of the Udongaga tribe

Zexis stroked his chin. This had been the first entry, scribbled over two pages. There were more, but he hadn´t read them. He wasn´t that interested in Zecora’s backstory. There were countless tragedies on Mundus, this was just one of them. Still, why didn´t the names tell him anything. Neither the Mahrkaki nor the Udongaga rang any bells with him. Which was strange, as they were clearly two tribes in Zebrica? So why didn´t he know about them.

Eventually he just shrugged his shoulders. There probably countless reason. Maybe they were too unimportant or they had been too far away from his home, for him to ever hear about them. Zebrica was a big land and unlike the ponies the tribes didn´t interact much, aside from electing the next king or gathering for war. So it was plausible he had never heard of those two tribes.

Zexis closed the book. His gaze lingered on it. This would help him very much in his quest of corrupting Ponyville. He had no talent for magic, but enchantments would help him offset that lack of ability. Once he had acquired more materials, and had the time, he could craft some very useful artifacts.

He looked at the clock and sighed. First, he needed to work. He still had some plans today, and unlike the book, they couldn´t wait. So he stood up and walked out of the room.

Skill unlocked! Enchanments: Apprentice

Right now you are in a prime position, but you need to maintain a steady hand or it might all suddenly fall apart.

Big Mac has been placated a great deal now, but we need to make sure we don't lose any control. He's too strong and well connected with the elements to risk letting loose. Once you have completed Apple Bloom's programming, I suggest a slow but steady approach to corrupting Applejack. Interact with her regularly and use the exhausting farm work as an excuse to give her beverages to re-hydrate (laced with the ever so useful suggestion powder). She has a strong will and high ethics, so breaking her will have to be slow by necessity or she will fight back.

You should also make sure to keep an eye on Cheerilee as you begin implementing changes to the school. As the school teacher, parents know and trust her with their children. If she is seen behaving irregularly, it will gain notice quickly. However her connections to the school board will be extremely useful, particularly in regards to Spoiled Rich. If you can corrupt her, not only will you gain far more control over the school, but access to her wealthy bank account, and the ability to fund your efforts with far more ease.

At Sweet Apple Acres

As Zexis made his way towards the barn, he saw Applejack trudging out of the building with a huge cart of apples in tow. The mares gritted her teeth as she pulled the heavy cart out in the open. Zexis could see the muscles in her legs tense up with every step and her biceps bulge, reminding him once more just how strong this mare was.
Soon Applejack stopped, the cart still halfway up the hill Zexis was just walking down. She panted in exhaustion and fanned some air into her face with her Stetson. Sweatbeads trickled down her face. She looked up and saw Zexis. "Howdy, partner.", she greeted.

"Morning.", said Zexis. He noticed that Applejack seemed tired. Not physically, but mentally. There were heavy bags under her eyes, as if she hadn´t slept much, and her hair was a little bit disheveled, with strings of her blonde mane falling into her face. All in all, the look of a mare worried sick about something. In her case, he had a strong suspicion about what it was: Applebloom.

"I thought today might be a good day to help you. Seems like you could use somepony to lend a hoof.", he said, stopping beside her cart.

Applejack took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "You have no idea, Zexis.", she muttered, "Big Mac’s up at the hospital checkin on Applebloom, and Ah am alone in taking care of the farm. We´re already behind as it is and this whole thing ain´t helping."

Zexis smiled. "Well, then I have good news for you. Applebloom is going to be discharged today. The nurse said she will up and running in no time."

Applejack’s expression lightened up at that, looking as if several stones just fell from her heart. "By Celestia and all apple pies in the world, that’s some good news!", she exclaimed. "Ah just don´t know what Ah would have done, if she had...." She paused before shaking her head. "No matter, she is good and that´s fine. Big Mac is going to calm down and we can finally get back to work."

"You got problems?"

Applejack made a grimace. "You were helpful an´all, but truth is, we´re still in the red. Third of the orchard is still full and Cider season is coming up an´Ah hadn´t got the time to prepare for it and...well, it´s just a lot of work still to be done.", she said.

Zexis stroked his chin. "Sounds serious. Why don´t you hire more help? I´m sure Twilight wouldn´t mind, if you ask her."
The mare however shook her head, almost violently. "No! Can´t ask them for something like this. They all got their hands full, what with Twilight being a Princess and the others havin’ their own jobs an´ all. I won´t bother them, just because I got a few chores piled up. We got through worse. Just a bit more work an´ then we´ll see the sun on the horizon."

Zexis frowned, but in truth he had expected this answer. Applejack was stubborn to a fault. The farm was her pride and joy and it would be unthinkable for her to admit that she may not be able to handle it all. It was no wonder she refused any help, outside of a few hired hands such as Zexis.

Which was fine, because that was just the thing the zebra wanted. He already had a plan in mind for bringing Applejack down and he had begun to set it in motion. Even the question he had just asked – and its predictable answer, was merely done in preparation for a later conversation. To affirm Applejacks pride, so he could use it against her.

"So, what? You gonna help me or stand there staring holes into the air?", asked Applejack, snapping her fingers in front of Zexis eyes.

The zebra blinked, before getting out of his thoughts and back into reality. "Sure, where we going?", he said, grabbing onto the handle alongside her.

"To Ponyville Market. Ah´m going to sell these off.", explained Applejack, pointing at the mountain of Apples behind her. Then she grasped the handle as well and they once more began to push forward.

Together, they dragged the heavy cart up the hill, slowly trundling towards the town. The heat of the day beat mercilessly down on them. To pass the time as they walked and take his mind off the hard labor, Zexis cast glances back, looking at their cargo of apples. Most of them looked bad, with bruises and brown blots all over them. "Tell me...pant...Applejack, why do you sell these?” He wheezed. I mean, they don´t look like your highest quality… he inhaled sharply, trying to make the stitch in his side go away. “gods, is this heavy”. Do you really think they will sell?", he asked through gritted teeth. His legs were already protesting and sweat began to pour from his body.

"These ones are not for eating.", explained the farm-mare, who sweated too, but was more used to the work."Ah´m gonna sell them to Ol´Pressbill. He then makes them into applesauce, applerings, appleslices, apple....."

Ponyville Market

"...and he once showed me a book, made out of applepaper. The ol´ fella has a ton of uses for them, Ah tell ya."

Zexis grunted just as much in affirmation as in utter relief as they finally made it to the market. He never knew that there were so many applications for apples, and now he wished that they never existed in the first place. How the fuck could a mare talk so long about one fucking fruit? What was her brain filled with? Applesauce!?

"You...really like...apples, hm?", he stammered, as they stopped and he flopped onto a nearby patch of grass, breathing hard, as if he had just run a marathon. His shirt clung to his body and his mohawk was hanging limply to one side.

Applejack too was sweaty, though in her case in a much more attractive way. Her shirt clung tightly to her body, outlining her sexy abs and her full breast. Her mane had also freed itself from its confinement and was now flowing freely under her stetson. Zexis realized that Applejack was, in truth, a very beautiful mare. She usually didn´t show it, because she didn´t care for appearances, but he was certain that she could have easily made a career as a model. No wonder Big Mac was so blueballed.

The mare put the handle down and wiped the sweat off her face. She grinned at Zexis. "Need a break, huh? No problem, Ah wait until ya finished your beauty sleep.", she mocked him lightly.

Zexis was aware that she was making a joke, but his cheeks flushed anyway. He gritted his teeth in anger. Fucking bitch! Who did she think she was? There he was helping her and she thanked him by insulting him. She should kiss his fucking hooves for fucks sake! Or even better, use her mouth for something more useful and suck his...

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Calm down, Zexis. She didn´t mean it that way and you´re not helping yourself by getting angry”, he told himself. Patience was the word of the hour. Just a few more days and she would pay for every transgression against him.

"Everything okay?" She peered at him. "Ya don´t look so good."

Zexis looked up and smiled reassuringly. "Everything’s fine. Just a bit exhausted, thats all.", he lied. Then he pulled out two bottles of water out of his backpack. He threw one to AJ. "Time to refresh and finish this trip."

Applejack looked at him funny. "Ya sure? Ya seemed angry for some reason.", she said cautiously.

Damnit this girl was sharp! Zexis tried to play it cool and just waved his hand. "It´s fine, got nothing to do with you..."

Now Applejack raised her eyebrow, but shrugged her shoulders. She put the water bottle to her lips and drank…

...

"No...Big Mac can´t do it...", mumbled Applejack. Her eyes were unfocused, but aside from seeming a little out of it, she looked fine.

Zexis groaned in frustration. He was standing here for over ten minutes already and he wasn´t even past the first suggestion. This mare was frustratingly stubborn. "Big Mac is strong and dependable, yes?", he asked.

"Of course..."

"Then surely it makes sense to listen to him more. He knows what he is doing. He could handle the farm...."
Applejack frowned and blinked her eyes focusing a bit. "He can´t. Ah promised Granny Ah would take care of Sweet Apple Acres. Ah swore it on her grave. Ah´m not gonna break that. Ah can do it, Zexis!"

The stallion swallowed. Crap, she was breaking through the influence! This mare posessed a stronger will, than he anticipated. Add to that her stubborness and he barely got through her. Maybe a different angle? "But you do know, that the current state of your farm is your fault, right? I mean, you´re responsible for it. It´s failure is your failure.", he said.
Surprisingly, Applejack hesitated. She blinked again, before scratching her head and gritting her teeth. "Ah don´t....Ah mean....", she said. Then she let out a frustrated scream and kicked the cart, which, despite its weight, jumped a few inches to the side.

Zexis skin crawled at seeing again the power in that mares legs. "Applejack? You haven´t given me an answer. Clearly the way things are going now..."

"AH GET IT, OKAY!", yelled the farm-mare. "Ah know we’re deep in the red! Ah know we didn´t sell enough apples last season or the season before that! And Ah know that Ah could do better! There, you happy now!?" She looked at Zexis, with fury in her eyes. Fury and shame.

Zexis nodded, trying desperately to stay calm. He knew Applejck was not gonna hurt him, but still. The Apple family could be very scary when they got angry. He held up his hands in a defensive gesture. "As long as we are on the same page...."
Applejack just snorted and grabbed the handle. "Let´s just get this over with." Then she stormed off, dragging the cart with her, as if it weighed nothing.

Zexis followed her. He was not satisfied. He had not been able to plant a useful suggestion in her mind. It was clear that on such a strong individual Suggestion Powder did not work well. Then again, he managed to make her admit, that she may be in over her head. Maybe he could build on that.

...

"Two hundred and five bits!? That’s fifty less than last year!", protested Applejack as she counted the golden coins in the bag that Ol´Pressbill had given her. "These are the same quality ya get from us every season! Why the sudden drop?"

The old Pegasus just shrugged his grey shoulders, as he gathered some apples from the cart into a basket. "I´m sorry, AJ. But I can´t help you there. Prices have dropped on the market. Apples are just not in demand right now.", he said, while he took the basket and carried it to one of the dozen presses he had standing in his hall.

"Appledump! We still sell out in cider and our stand on the market gets off all apples before the end of the week!", held Applejack against it. She waved the too small bag of bits in the face of the stallion. "How is that not in demand’?"

But Ol´Pressbill just shook his head. "I don´t know, AJ. All I know is that I don´t get my products off the shelves. And if I don´t sell all, I can´t buy all." He pointed at the cart. "I only take these off you, because your family and me have done business for a long time already, but I can´t give you full price even for that. I´m sorry, but I need to make a living too." He seemed genuinely sad, scratching the back of his bald head.

Applejack gritted her teeth and pulled her Stetson over her eyes. "Fiddle sticks!", she cursed.

Ol´Pressbill laid his hand on her shoulder. "Oh don´t be like that, girl. This is just a phase, you´ll see. Next year things will be better. And it´s cider season, so you´ll make a lot of money there. I´m sure you´ll manage to get through. You´re smart mare, Granny Smith always said that."

Applejack however wasn´t encouraged. "That´s what she said, alright...", she mumbled sadly. She tried to give a smile, but it looked very forced, and she quickly dropped it. Then she turned around. "Nice day, Bill." Ol´Pressbill sighed and got back to his presses.

Zexis was standing outside, not far from them. He had listened in. Various thoughts worked their way through his mind, but he pushed them back as Applejack came closer. He put a sad look on his face. "Did not go well, huh?"

"No, everything’s peachy.", replied Applejack monotonous. "Got what Ah needed. All dandy..."

Zexis raised an eyebrow. He already guessed that she was a bad liar, but this was just depressing. Still, this was actually fortunate. And it gave him an idea.

After Pressbill and his assistants emptied the cart, he grabbed the handle and took it up. He looked at Applejack, who was still looking at the coinbag with a frustrated, downright desperate look. "Hop on. I’ll carry you back.", he offered.

She looked at him incuriously. "Why? Ah can walk."

Zexis shook his head. "Come on, I know you´re not okay. Let me help you. It won’t hurt." He couldn´t really lie to her, which made it difficult to hold conversation without making her suspicious. But true statements didn´t seem to tick her off.

Applejack hesitated for a second, before sighing and climbing onto the empty cart. "Alright, but ya better not tell Big Mac about it. He´s gotten stricter these days.", she said, while opening the water bottle again and taking a sip.
Zexis grinned as he pulled. "Oh, I noticed that."

...

"It´s mah fault. Everything is mah fault. Mah responsibility. If we fail, I fail."

"That’s right. Now, repeat it. And tell me how you feel about it.", said Zexis, as he dragged the cart down the hill towards Sweet Apple Acres.

"It´s mah fault. Everything is mah fault. Mah responsibility. If we fail, I fail.", repeated Applejack obediently, emptying the water bottle. "Ah carry the whole farm on mah shoulders. It´s success or failure depends completely on me. Ah....Ah cannot afford to fail...Ah wouldn´t know what to do then..." At the last bit, her voice broke down a bit and she stared at the barn, with a tear in her eye. "We don´t make enough money. Ah try and try and it doesn´t work. The prices drop… Filthy....Ah mean, Rich doesn´t extend his loans anymore and..."

"Aaand we’re here!", interrupted Zexis. He let the handle fall and the sharp, sudden, clang brought Applejack back to reality. She blinked several times, confused. "Already? That was fast."

"Yeah, well... how time flies if you have a good conversation.", said Zexis, and smiled innocently.

"Suure...", mumbled Applejack skeptically and got off the cart. She patted down her stetson and looked at the empty cart. Then at small bag of bits at her belt. She sighed. "You gonna stay? Ah need to work at the orchard today and Ah could use the help.", she asked Zexis.

The zebra shook his head. "Sorry, but I got a class to teach. I will come back, if I find the time.", he said, again relying on half-truths.

Applejack just sighed in disappointment. "Well, thank you anyway for helping today.", she said. Then she walked towards the barn, waving Zexis goodbye. "Don´t give those foals any weird ideas!"

"Don´t fuck up the farm.", replied Zexis, and snickered when he saw the blond mare flinch. One suggestion at least had been successfully planted.

Well, Cheerilee broke surprisingly fast - not that I'm complaining. Maybe she could be useful in pointing out corruptible teachers, or keeping certain students after class without raising suspicion. Could be useful; of course, that's after you make sure she's on your side 100%.

Also, see if you can dig up some information on this school council - if Zexis can work his magic on them, we'd be able to turn the school into a veritable breeding ground for corrupt students (literally and metaphorically). We could pass all sort of new clubs, classes, and extracurricular activities that would expand our influence; and who knows, maybe we could even corrupt a few teachers along the way, prepare for the next generation of corruptible foals!

At the School

"Good morning, students.", said Zexis, as he entered the classroom.

"Good morning, Mr.Chikelu!", echoed back from the colts and fillies.

"Rumble, please untie Button Mash. Snip, Snail? Detention for both of you. Don´t pretend like you´re innocent. And Scootaloo? See me after class.", ordered Zexis, without looking at the class, unpacking his notes and preparing the board. He didn´t need to look to know, that Snip and Snail were staring at him in shock and that Scoots was smiling in both fear and anticipation.

When Zexis finished drawing, he turned around. Button was also returning to his seat, still trying to remove some of the magical sticky tape that they had made in alchemy-class earlier. Rumble tapped him encouraging on the shoulder and soon the attention was fully on Zexis.

"Now, I looked over your homework. All in all, good job. Twist scored highest, while Snail finished in last. The Morrigan is known for granting blessings in battle, not bakery. Don´t know how you made that mistake...", he said, while giving back the corrected homework.

Then he turned to the blackboard and revealed a depiction of a crater, huge in size, that was dug deep into the ground, sealed under a mountain and with only one entrance. The crater had a wide ring, that grew smaller the deeper it went and was seperated into several sections. The outline was jagged and rough drafts of fire, caverns and strange beasts littered the depiction.

Zexis pointed at the drawing. "Anypony able to tell me what this is?"

Twist hand raced upward. "It´s the Tartarus, Sir.", she answered.

Zexis nodded. "Indeed. And it´s the focus of today’s lesson. Yesterday we went over Gods and the different types of them. Today we go over their counterpart: Demons."

Several of the fillies shuddered, but at least one of the colts, Rumble, had a shine of interest in their eyes. Zexis saw it and pointed at him. "Rumble! Can you tell me what a demon is?"

The pegasus thought a little, before answering. "Well...they are...evil. Evil in persona. Wicked monsters that want to destroy Mundus! Eternal enemies of the gods.", he said.

Zexis tilted his head, before shaking it. "That´s too broad. Gods can be evil, too. And they have more times than not done terrible damage to Mundus. Why exactly do we differentiate between them and demons?"

Rumble didn´t have an answer for that. As Zexis looked over the class, he saw none of them had any idea what the right answer was. So, he turned to the blackboard and began to write. "The difference is two-fold: Effect and Origin.", he said, while writing the two words down. Behind him he could hear the hasty shuffling and the scratching of ink-feathers.

"Effect is the easiest one to explain: Gods create. That is, in essence, their job. They administer and control a part of Mundus, their dominion. That dominion doesn´t always need to be something good, but it is an integral part of the world. And while gods destroy as well, their main purpose is creating and maintaining their dominion."

"Demons cannot create. Their only purpose is to destroy, to pervert. They do not possess dominions, because they don´t add anything to creation. A demon’s actions will always end in destruction. They hijack certain aspects of creation, like smithing or magic, but they only copy skills and formulas already present."

Zexis stopped talking, when he saw Silver Spoons hand. "Yes, what is it?"

"But, doesn´t make that demons, like, weaker?", asked the filly, propping up her expensive glasses. "I mean, if they don´t create anything better, they should be defeated pretty easily, right?"

"Yeah!", added Button Mash. "That’s why they are so easily fooled in the legends, too. You know, when Celestia told that fire demon Asmodeus, that drinking from the fountain of youth would make him immortal and he doused his own flames trying?"

Zexis shook his head. "I´m afraid that is not quite right. Demons are inherently powerful creatures and most importantly, they are quite intelligent. Old children tales paint them as dull beings, because that fits better in their narrative of good always prevailing. But reality isn´t that kind."

"Demons possess powerful magic that no god or mortal can access. They are not bound by the laws of the arcane, like Equivalent Exchange and the like. Their bodies are strong and durable, not easily destroyed. And most importantly, they are powered by the sins and vices of mortals. The more negative energy is around, the more powerful a demon can get. You could call it one giant dominion to which they all have access to."

Zexis went over the notes, Time Turner had left him. "But the most dangerous thing about them is their talent of manipulation. A capable demon is something you only recognize when it´s too late. When its schemes and plans have already succeeded and there is no danger revealing their secret identity. They will coerce you into committing crimes and sins and slowly but surely lead you on a path of darkness and ruin, and in the end, you will..."

He looked up and saw that the entire classroom had gotten completely quiet. The fillies and colts looked scared out of their wits and Zexis noticed Sweetie having a tear in her eye. Even Rumble seemed a little bit shaken.

He quickly cleared his throat and closed the notes. "Well, they are dangerous.", he said, before smiling encouragingly. "And they are all locked up in Tartarus. The last demon to escape the confines of Tartarus was Tirek, and he was personally defeated by the Elements of Harmony. So, no worries there."

That seemed to take the tension out of the room and the students relaxed a bit. Some even started to talk a bit, making some jokes to lighten the moods, though Zexis’ warning cough quickly got their attention back.

"Anyway, moving on. The second difference is origin: The gods are creations of Mundus. They are born from the world either as mortals or as gods already. They are a natural existence, and part of the cycle. Demons, on the other hand, are not."

"They are an unnatural element. It is clear that their very existence disturbs the balance of life. Misfortune follows them and their actions, as mentioned, are almost always destructive. They can be likened to a disease. Infecting and damaging the host, in this case Mundus."

"But,", interrupted Silver Spoon again, "Where do they come from, exactly?"

Zexis pulled out a canvas and unraveled it, revealing it to the class. It was a painting, or rather a painting of a painting. It depicted a hellish, chaotic landscape. Lava spilling out from the cracked earth. Shattered mountains in the distance. The raging sea devouring the coast and everlasting winter freezing everything in its path.

And in all that chaos and destruction, gods. Dozens upon dozens of gods, of all shapes and races. A white alicorn with a red mane, battling a black draconequus with a skull as its face. A bearded minotaur wielding thunderbolts, firing them at a centaur of enormous size, with several heads and multiple arms. A moose with an eyepatch holding a spear against a monstrous white wolf. A one-eyed caribou shooting beams of destruction at a laughing griffon with a silver arm. An undead, rotting kirin-mare raising the dead to fight her husband, who led his family against her. And above them all, filling out the sky, a giant grey dragon, shattering like glass.

"The Sin War. The first war ever to be fought on Mundus. When the First Age came crashing down and all evil was created.", said Zexis, while looking at painting.

He looked at the class. "We don´t know if they were created, or if the apocalyptical chaos drew them to our world like a candle. But it was at this time that the first demons appeared on Mundus. Some theologians support the theory that it was the first demon ever to exist that caused the Sin War, but that is pure speculation. None of survivors talk about it and the ones foolish enough to ask, regret their choice pretty quickly. Nevertheless, that is their origin and since that terrible time, they have plagued Mundus."

Zexis paused and gave the students time to take it all in. Many were writing diligently. Button Mash, in particular. When they were finished, he returned to the blackboard and began to write some numbers at the side of his rough draft of Tartarus. Then he turned to the class. "Now, can anypony tell me the different layers of Tartarus?"

Again, raised Twist her hand so quickly it seemed like she was bitten by a tarantula. But Pipsqueak knew the answer as well, so Zexis picked him. "The first one is Tounela, where the black river of Touni is. I... think it used to carry the souls of the dead, but I´m not sure..."

"You´re right, it did. Now, though, it is mainly the first of many defenses that keep the inhabitants of Tartarus locked up. It´s black waters suck out your soul, if you do not pay the Death Maid.", helped him Zexis out. Then he pointed at Twist, who now hopped up and down on her chair.

"Oh, oh! The second layer is Hel, the land of the dead. Evil mortals who have committed so heinous crimes that they have been sent to Tartarus are banished there. The Goddess of the Dead, Hel, administers their punishment and ensures they cannot die until they have served their sentences.", she said hastily, before continuing. "Then comes the third layer, Gehenna, where everything burns and all the evil demigods, Lesser Gods and lower demons are incarcerated, slaving away in the hellish heat. And then comes..."

"Not bad.", interrupted her Zexis, holding up his hand, to shut her up. "Clearly someone read the Book of Origin."

Twist blushed at the praise and beamed in pride. "My parents are Prayers. Grandfather is a priest in Cloppicut and he read passages out of it to me every night at bedtime!"

Zexis remembered that ponies in Equestria who openly practiced their faith were called Prayers. There were not many of them, mostly because Celestia insisted on being treated like a ruler, instead of a Goddess. But they existed and especially in the rural areas there were some large communities who worshipped the princesses. All of them, in fact, which had led to quite some difficulties when three new princesses suddenly popped up a few years ago. But by now most of these problems had been cleared out and a new canon established.

It was a strange thing, from his perspective. In Zebrica, religion was something common. It was hard not to worship the gods and the spirits, if they showed their might on a daily basis. But in a land where one Goddess alone ruled for over a millennia, it didn’t seem far-fetched to have a more pragmatic view on legends and mythology.

Back to the question at hand, Zexis pointed at Rumble. "Can you tell me what the fourth layer is called?"

Again, the colt frowned at being asked. This time he thought for quite a while, flipping through the pages of his schoolbook to find the answer. Finally, Button had mercy with him and gave him a small note. "It´s... Hades. The layer where Great Gods and Archdemons are held. It is filled with darkness and stone and the curses of the Old World."

"Nice. Good reading, Rumble.", said Zexis, with a lightly mocking tone. The colt shrugged his shoulders and gave a grateful thumbs up to Button.

"Now, can anybody tell me the name of the last and final, deepest layer?", asked Zexis, pointing at the smallest, darkest section.

For a while, nopony said anything. Twist had her arm up, but Zexis ignored her first, wanting a different filly or colt to answer the question. Then, as it looked like he was going to relent and let Twist handle it, Sweetie Belle raised her hand.

"It´s Yomi. The deepest part, where no light shines and no life can sustain itself. It´s where the First Dead is sealed away, as well as the Worst Sinner and the Greatest Fool. They say, it is the only part of Tartarus that cannot be opened or reached.", she explained in a meek voice.

Zexis clapped his hand in open approval. "Not bad! May ask, how you know this?"

Sweetie Belle grimaced, sheepishly twisting a lock of hair on her finger. "Rarity wanted to make a clothing line with this as the theme, early on in her career. She got huge backlash from the Neighponese. That was when I read up on it. I just wanted to know why they were so mad about it." She shrugged her shoulders, as if it was no big deal.

Zexis nodded. "Yes, Neighpon is pretty sensitive about this topic. But good on you, for remembering this. You can tell your sister, her little cultural miss-step got you an A."

Sweetie smiled adorably at that. Zexis smiled charmingly back, keeping behind his desk to hide his growing erection. Good, how much he wanted to defile that innocent young mare! To just rip her little dress off and pound her over the table like a common whore.

Good thing lecturing was an excellent boner killer. He continued on with the lesson, trying to keep his thoughts on the topic and not on how much he wanted to turn this classroom into his own sex-haven.

...

Soon, the lesson drew to a close. Zexis wiped the depiction of Tartarus from the blackboard. Behind him, the students began to pack up and talk about their plans for the afternoon or what they learned today. They seemed rather chipper, despite the rather grim topic today.

"Unfortunately, I cannot let you go just yet.", said Zexis out loud, getting some annoyed groans from the ones already at the door. "I first have an announcement to make." He grinned. "Or better said, she has an announcement to make."

As is one cue, the door to the classroom suddenly opened and Mrs. Cheerilee stepped inside. She had changed. Her conservative dress had been discarded for a thin blouse, the first two button of which were open, revealing an enticing cleavage. Her skirt was shorter now too, ending over her knees, up her thighs and hugging her bottom. She had put on some black lipstick and wore mascara. All in all, she now looked all the part of a sexy teacher.

The colts stared at her, like she was an angel and the fillies seemed surprised as well. Cheerilee smiled at them, winking at the colts and joined Zexis at the table. She stepped close to him, letting their shoulders touch and putting a hand on her hip, while staring at the class. She licked her lips and looked at her clipboard, which her pressed against the underside of her breasts.

"I would like to announce that from today forward there are going to be two new lessons in the curriculum. These will Supplementary Lessons for Colts and Supplementary Lessons for Fillies. They will be led by Mr. Chikelu and me, respectively.", she said.

A loud groan came from the entire class at the prospect of more school, but Cheerilee just smiled sweetly. "Don´t be like that. It is only for a few weeks, then we are back to the regular schedule."

"And what exactly are these Supplementary Lessons?", asked Diamond Tiara.

Mrs. Cherilee smiled. "They are just some lessons to teach you about some important things about yourself.", explained Cheerilee, earning some confused looks from the students. "They will involve trust-experiments, psychological analysis, and examination of social norms. Thorough examination..." She giggled at the last one.

"These lessons will be mandatory and I expect everypony to show up, otherwise you´re going to get detention. Do well, on the other hand and we will reward you personally." Again, she winked at the colts who grinned sheepishly, not quite sure what that meant.

Zexis chuckled at the sight. He had been worried that Cheerilee would have changed too much, but it seemed like that worry seemed unfounded. The teacher knew how to interact with her students and her changed perspective didn´t seemed to have impacted her ability to take control of a classroom.

"Any other questions?", asked Cheerilee.

"Can we go, now?", asked Rumble.

Cheerilee smiled at him and nodded. "Sure, go ahead."

The students barreled out of the room, some with confused looks on their faces, but most just glad that school was over. As Scootaloo ran towards the door, Zexis arm rushed forward and grabbed her by the shoulder. "Not you, Scootaloo. There is still something I want to talk about with you.", said Zexis in firm voice, though he couldn´t quite hide his grin.
Sweetie looked questioningly at her friend. Scoots smiled bravely and waved at her. "Just go ahead. We see each other tomorrow.", she said. Sweetie shrugged her shoulders and waved goodbye, before walking out of the room.

Now alone, Zexis grip on the filly’s shoulder got stronger. Cheerilee closed the windows and put over the drapes just in case somepony wanted to eavesdrop, then she joined him. A wicked smile was on her lips, all kindness from before gone.
Scootaloo squirmed, pressing her thighs together. "E-Everything alright, Mr. Chikelu? Something with my homework?"
"Drop the act, Scoots. Cheerilee knows already.", said Zexis.

Scootaloo eyes went big and a smile parted her lips. "Oh, that’s great! That means you broke her---"

SLAP!

Scoots face whipped to one side, as Zexis hoof slapped her hard. The filly squeaked, holding her burning cheek. A wet spot appeared between her legs, staining her spats. "She knows, because you fucked up.", he spat.

Cheerilee grabbed Scoots by her waist and dropped down to her ear. "I saw you giving Rumble a blowjob, my little slut. Naughty, naughty...", she whispered

"I-I don´t understand. You told me to---"

SLAP!

The fillies face now whipped to the other side. "I told you to be careful! Not sucking off your classmates in broad daylight!", reprimanded Zexis. His gaze went lower and her could see a steady stream of wet pussy juice trickling down the pegasus’ leg.

Cheerilee saw it too and laughed. "It´s true! I thought you were joking, when you said it, but it´s actually true. Little Scootaloo is a slutty, stupid masochist.", she giggled. Her hand went up Scoots flat belly and to her race-shirt. She grabbed her erect nipples and began to twist them.

Scoots moaned in delight. "Ooooh yes, harder!"

Zexis just shook his head. "You should be glad Mrs. Cheerilee was so understanding. Otherwise we would have gotten into quite some trouble.", he said.

The little athlete cooed, when her teacher bit into her ear. "Eeep! Th-Then everything worked out.", she stammered. "B-But if you want to punish me...." She grinned, parting her legs towards Zexis so that the fabric pressed against her soaked twat, outlining it for him. ".... I am ready..."

Zexis grinned. Then he laughed. "Oh, you´ll get your punishment. But not from me.", he chuckled. Scoots looked confused, before yelping in surprise when Mrs. Cheerilee suddenly lifted her off her hooves, and carried her toward the desk. There, she pulled out some ropes, hidden in a cupboard, and a vibrator. "The good teacher demanded to administer the punishment herself.", explained Zexis, an evil grin on his face. "And something tells me you are not going to enjoy it."

Cheerilee snickered. "That is for getting laid." She slapped Scoots tight butt. "And for seducing my colts." She slapped her burning cheeks. "And that is for fun!" The last one she laughed at, as she hit the filly’s sensitive pussy, causing Scoots to squeal.

Zexis shook his head and looked at Cheerilee. "You have everything under control?", he asked.

"Oh, yes. Don´t worry. I will get her tomorrow morning. I will bring some spare clothes too, so she doesn´t arouse suspicion.", said Cheerilee, beginning to bind the young pegasus mare with ropes.

"C-Clothes? Wha-What do you mean? Master!?" Scootaloo now seemed in actual panic. This was not what she expected to happen.

Zexis just shrugged his shoulders and turned to the door. "Your guess is as good as mine. But don´t worry, I will come over to check on you...eventually. Have fun!" He laughed and closed the door.

Some street in Ponyville

It was evening. Zexis was carrying a bag over his shoulder. He had spent the rest of the afternoon gathering more materials from the Everfree Forest. With that, he should be able to try some new recipes and move further with the enchantments. He could hardly wait. So much to do...

As he rounded the corner, still lost in his thoughts, something pointy suddenly hit him in the head. Stars exploded before his eyes and Zexis yelled out in pain, jumping backwards. His hoof got stuck on a rock and he lost his balance. With wildly flailing arms and a rather undignified scream, he fell.

"Oh gods, Zexis! Are you okay?", a female voice called out.

"S-Sure....", mumbled the zebra, holding his puckering forehead. "So many pretty lights..."
"Oh no. Wait a second, I´ll fix this!"

A purple light enveloped Zexis’ head and seeped into it. The pain subsided almost immediately and his vision cleared. He looked up and stared into the worried eyes of Twilight Sparkle. The alicorn wore a high-collar blouse today, with black jeans that clung to her long legs. Her mane was falling into her face, but she wasn´t noticing it, as she examined Zexis head. Her long fingers touching his skin, running over his face...

Zexis noticed that he stared and blushed involuntarily. "Ehm, I think I´m fine now, Twilight...", he coughed, noticing how uncomfortably close she was. She smelled like lavender today.

Twilight blinked for a moment, before blushing deeply and backing off just as fast. "Oh, o-okay! I-I just wanted to make sure everything is alright. Nothing swollen or fractured...", she explained, smiling embarrassed and getting some hair out of her face.

Zexis couldn´t help but smile back. "It´s okay. Nothing is broken.", he said, getting up. He grabbed his bag and patted the dirt off his clothes.

Twilight’s face was still flushed, but she seemed to calm down as well. "Stupid horn!", she mumbled, sounding slightly annoyed. "Ever since I became an alicorn it has been growing longer. I even had to file it down, so I wouldn’t accidently impale somepony with it."

"That wouldn´t be good. The Princess of Friendship using her subjects as jousting puppets makes for poor publicity.", joked Zexis and noticed with joy Twilights amused giggle.

"You have no idea.", she said. "I constantly have to watch out what I say or where I shop. I can’t even count the number of times that I’ve accidently advertised for somepony, for instance when I was hungry for some hayfries." Then she remembered something. "It’s good that I met you anyway, because I wanted to tell you that we got the Tracker up and running. It´s going to be ready tomorrow if you want to join me-I mean, us?"

Zexis nodded. "That would be lovely. When are you going to start?"

"Oh, probably around the afternoon. That way we can make preparations in case we have to act fast."

Zexis nodded again. Lucky him, that left him with enough time to take care of Zecora. He wasn´t quite sure how he would do that yet, but he had a feeling he would come up with a plan soon enough. Then he saw Twilight muttering at him from the side. "Something the matter?"

Twilight blinked again and quickly looked elsewhere. "No, no, I -I just....ehm....", she stammered, as her face once again turned a darker shade of purple. "I-I heard about your mythology-lesson.", she quickly changed the subject.

Zexis chuckled at her awkwardness, but decided to be merciful and go with it. "Yes, it is quite interesting. Alchemy is more my thing, but mythology is quite interesting as well. It also helped me refresh my knowledge on the subject.", he said. Then he thought of something.

"You know something what always bothered me? Celestia is the Greater Goddess of the Sun. Now, wouldn´t that alone make her more than powerful enough to deal with any threat to Equestria? Like the Changelings, for example?", he asked.

Twilight expression changed, turned thoughtful. And a little sad. "You ask why she doesn´t just blast all the problems away, right?", she clarified.

Zexis held up his hands. "I´m sorry if this a touchy subject.", he apologized quickly. He didn´t want to offend Twilight.

"No, it´s alright. It´s a valid question.", said Twilight. She sighed, before closing her eyes. "Imagine you have the power to control the sun. Imagine the might that comes with a powerful dominion, and how easily you could just use that power to burn all obstacles away."

"Fire burns. It doesn´t distinguish between friend and foe. It just turns everything to ash. And the bigger the flame, the harder it is to control. One mistake, and hundred - no, thousands will die. It takes tremendous effort and control to just make sure the sun rises every day. In the early days, entire colleges of mages were needed to do that. Princess Celestia does that on her own. Alone. For over ten thousand years."

She looked Zexis in the eyes, sad and also a little proud at her mentor. "Yes, Princess Celestia is powerful. But that power comes with a price. Sure, she could have defeated Discord or destroyed Sombra. But her victory would have cost more than it was worth."

Zexis was quiet for a time. He hadn´t considered that. It made sense, but it didn´t sit right with him. "What about Queen Chrysalis? I heard that she was able to defeat Princess Celestia. Was that also because she held back?"

Twilight shook her head. "Yes, and no. Princess Celestia was holding back, indeed. But Chrysalis had been feeding off my brother’s love the entire time. Love is something very powerful. It´s difficult to describe, but what I think happened is that Chrysalis had somehow managed to tap into my brothers and sister-in-law’s connection to each other. And since Cadence is the Lesser Goddess of Love that meant she got access to her dominion. Combine that with Chrysalis’ own power and, well..."

She scratched her head and shrugged her shoulders. "It´s just a theory. To be sure, I would need to speak with Chrysalis herself, and she is unlikely to agree to that"

Zexis nodded. This was valuable information. So, Celestia wasn´t as powerful as she seemed. Or better said, she was powerful, but unwilling to use that power. Zexis smiled a bit. That was very useful, indeed. Maybe not right now, but definitely for the future.

Twilight learned forward, once more catching his gaze. She smiled at him. "Did that answer your question?", she asked.

Zexis looked at her and nodded. "Yes, quite. Thank you for the explanation. You´re just as smart as everypony says you are." He couldn´t help but charm her a little bit.

Twilight blushed at the unexpected compliment. "Not everypony says that...", she admitted.

Zexis just laughed. "If they don´t, then I would like to see who they think is smarter! Probably some old professor in Canterlot." He grinned at Twilight. "But you are one of the few who smart and pretty, my dear princess."

Twilight was now beet-red and puffed her cheeks in light anger. "Now you´re overdoing it, Mr. Chikelu. Don´t you know that one shouldn´t lie?", she said.

"I’m not.", answered Zexis honestly. "I would never lie to you." He was surprised to find that the last bit hurt him a little, inside. As if he regretted that contradiction.

He was surprised to see Twilight’s blush intensify. She quickly pressed her arms against the side of her body, and hid her eyes behind her bangs. For a while her mouth just opened and closed like a fish. Then her horn began to glow.

"ItwasnicetotalktoyouIneedtogobye!", she rattled off, before she disappeared with a little bang.

Zexis chuckled at her escape and walked down the street, whistling a little tune...

Relationships updated!

Applejack

Willpower: 9-1/10
Corruption: 0/10
Lust: 2/10
Secrets: Is afraid of losing the farm
Skills: detects lies
Traits: very strong, tight ass, strong willed

New Recipe!

Aphrodisiac-Incense: This is a simple incence, made out of several aphrodisiacs. It burns slowly over an hour and raises the libido and lust of everyone, who smells it. This is a slow, long-building effect that requires some time to show its effect. Once it hits, however, it raises one lust permanently and makes the subject more susceptible to suggestions and lustful actions.
Only way to defend against it is by taking the antidote beforehand or getting out of its sphere of influence.

Truth-Amulet: This amulet is enchanted with a simple truth spell. This spell functions as a compulsion for the target to reveal its deepest, darkest secret. It had only limited charges and, depending on the targets willpower, can expend more than one of these charges to force its effect, before it needs to be recharged. The target itself is not aware it is being manipulated, unless it is proficient in magic itself.

Author's Note

Wooh, that was longer chapter, than I expected. :pinkiegasp:

Still, a lot of fun to write. I just love worldbuilding. Also, cookies for everyone, who can guess all the gods names in the War of Sin-Painting. All, except two, are major deities from several mythologies and religions. The key to figuring it out is keeping in mind who they fight against. :raritywink:

Other than that, there are also two new recipes for you to play with. I also gladly take suggestions of enchanments from you. So, if you have a good idea, just spit it out!

Anyway, I hope you had fun and I wish you a great time! :twilightsmile:

Hard Truths

One orange and one blue light turns on, highlighting a figure.

"Greetings. To begin with, I'm glad to know that the tome had caused no lasting damage. I would still investigate it, make sure it isn't harmful. And do not ignore Zecora's little diary in it; her insight may prove valuable about the Zebra Lands as well as some insight into alchemy.

"For now, though, that has to be ignored. We need to ditch Zecora as soon as we can do so without being spotted. I would prefer it if we just took her to a cliff in the Everfree and shoved her off it, but I imagine my associates would prefer to keep her alive and in use. In more then one way.

"We could overload her with an aphrodisiac, find a spot for her to be in and carve out a wooden sex toy for her to use. The shock of her appearance should awaken some sort of... primal urge in those who find her.

"Do not proceed further with Applejack until Zecora is fully dealt with. When you get back to her carry on as you were; slow, subtly and steady is how you break her. More importantly, we have to be careful we don't draw undue attention to her, or at least make it seem as if her troubles are based on the farm failing.

"Carry on with the school as you are. Once more, break them slowly."

Outside of the door there is the sound of gunfire, the shadowed figure turning his head as he reached into his suit, drawing a pistol.

"Until then, we will be watching."

The camera shuts off with the sound of a kicked in door.

BZZZZZZZT...........Click!

Finally!......... It took this dam machine long enough. I apologise for my absent my assistant required a bit of retraining. Any way after looking at the last couple of communication I have to agree with many of our fellow contributor that we need to get control and corrupt the rest of the teacher for the school in order to secure it. I would recommend that Cheerilee call a teacher meeting for all the teacher to meet the new teacher Zexis a bit of a social get together. From there Zexis can spike what ever drinks are severed and put the general suggestion that all the teacher trust him that he seems like a nice stallion and an excellent teacher. From there pick out the target from among the teacher and focus getting them on Zexis side one at a time. Hopefully there is a music teacher with some talent for creating music which we could use to create some subliminal message that we could use to help corrupt more ponies.

Next we have a couple opportunities coming up involving Twilight and co search for Zecora. Firstly we must get Zecora ready to be transported into the Everfree Forest and leave her in a safe enough location that we can find her later with Twilight I would recommend something like a large patch of poison joke it should be a relativity safe place as such a plant would be avoid by most creatures of the Everfree due to it nature. I also recommend that Zexis put some sort of commands on Zecora to make sure she stay put in whatever location we leave her other wise if she wonder of a gets killed in the Everfree forest it could cause some complications. When we go into the Everfree forest I recommend that we take Redheart with us as it we can use her to suggest that Zecora stay in the hospital for recovery also just encase Zecora gets hurt during the time she is alone.

Everfree Forest, Very Early Morning

"Are we there, yet?"

"Birdhoof, I swear to the Ancestors, I will kick you into the maw of a rockodile, if don´t shut up!"

"But we have been walking here for two hours! Zecora is is not easy to carry, I need to get back to the Orphanage as not to arouse suspicion and you still have a lesson today! We are running out of time!"

Zexis sighed. As much as it pained him to admit, Birdhoof had a point. They couldn´t afford to stumble around in the forest much longer. He turned around.

Birdhoof stood behind him. He carried one end of the stretch on which Zecora laid. The unicorn had continued to lose fat and his improved physique began to show. He wasn´t obese anymore. Still fat, but not morbidly so. He also seemed to have gained a bit of a backbone, though wether this was a good thing still was up for debate.

Zecora was sleeping. She was naked, of course. Zexis had Birdhoof destroy her clothes, as there wasn´t much left of them anyway and the danger of someone tracking them through them was too great. He didn´t know the magical arsenal of Twilight and her friends, but considering her library he was pretty sure he didn´t need such a risk. Of course, the whole reason they were now in the Everfree in the first place was because of that damned tracking spell and the need to disguise any evidence pointing towards him.

"Wait here. I´m gonna try something.", he ordered the unicorn. Then he slowly lowered the stretch to the ground, so he had both hands free.

"Oh good!", exclaimed Birdhoof, glad for a short rest. "What is it?"

Zexis took a deep breath. "I´m asking for directions...." Then he put his palms on the ground and opened his spirit.

Immediately he was assaulted with the crushing presence of the Will. It seemed like the spirit had followed them and now that Zexis had opened up a link, the ancient being made itself known.

WHY DO YOU DISTURB ME!?

Zexis pressed his teeth together so hard it hurt, but maintained concentration. It was hard, but he needed to do this if he wanted to have success. I only ask of you the way to a field of poison joke, Will of the Everfree.

WHAT USE WOULD IT BRING ME TO TELL YOU? I AM EVER FREE! MORTAL DESIRES ARE OF NO IMPORTANCE!

Even if they help to punish those, who dared to wrong you in the past? Zexis sweated. This Will was nearly suffocating him and his control of the link got weaker with every second. He needed to convince it fast, before his concentration broke.

THE SHAMANESS HAS MET HER FATE! MY WRATH IS QUENCHED!

The zebra tried to relax his jawmuscles and took a deep breath. What about the goddess, who searches for her? Who encroaches on your sovereignty, your freedom, to find this....criminal.

SHE WILL FACE MY FURY SOON, WHEN SHE ENTERS MY REALM! YOU SEEK TO AID?

Zexis could barely hold the connection anymore. Sweat now poured from his face and his body was tense like a coil. He could only nod, in hope the Will recognized the gesture. Then the link was severed and he collapsed to the ground.

He felt Birdhoofs hand around his shoulders, as his companions helped him to his feet. "I´ve no idea what you just did, but it didn´t seem to have worked.", he said.

"I wouldn´t be so sure...", murmured Zexis, regaining his breath. A small grin crept on his face, as the foliage before them cleared all of the sudden and revealed a large field of blue flowers. He chuckled. "It seemed like my request was granted."

With that, they grabbed Zecora by her legs and arms and dragged her to the edge of the field. Birdhoof examined the blue tinted field curiously. Zexis grabbed him and pulled him back, before he sniffed one of them.

"Don´t do that!", he reprimanded him. "Poison Joke works through ingestion of the nose. Don´t touch or smell them, unless you want to be cursed!"

"I get it!", said the stallion defensively. "What I don´t understand is why we are dumping Zecora here? Why not hide her in the bushes and let the princess find her?"

"Because we need some explanation for her mental state. The more off thing seem, the more Twilight will investigate, which would be really disruptive to my plans. With Poison Joke we give her a logical explanation for Zecoras....insanity. And if I play my cards right, it will even net me some bonus points with her!"

Birdhoof looked at him quizzically, before smiling dirtily. "Oh...ooooooh I get it. You want to impress the princess!"

Zexis stopped, before blushing heavily. "Wh-What? No, I don´t! This is strictly professional!", he protested and tried to keep his face from glowing.

His companion just snickered. "Sure. That´s why you insisted on coming with her. It´s to play the knight in shining armor!", he teased.

"It´s not! She can take of herself without me. I just need to make sure everything goes to plan and that nothing goes wrong. I do not care for her! She...she is just another mare!"

"Yup. Just another beautiful, smart alicorn princess. Because, you know, they grow on trees...", sniped Birdhoof and chuckled.

Zexis glared at him. "One more word and I throw you into this flower field after Zecora...", he snarled.

Birdhoof hesitated a moment, as if he wasn´t sure Zexis would go through with that threat. Then he shrugged his shoulders and grabbed Zecora´s ankles again. "Fine, fine.", he mumbled.

Zexis still stared at him, while the unicorn tried not to meet his eyes. Then, after an awkward silence, he cleared his throat. "Anyway...lets finish this. I still have other things to do. On the count of three!"

They grabbed Zecora´s unconcious body and began to swing her back and forth.

"One..."

"Two..."

"Three!"

With one big, final swing they tossed the zebra into the middle of the clearing. As she impacted on the bed of flowers a cloud of spores exploded into the air. Zexis and Birdhoof quickly made sure to put some distance between themselves and the poisonous plants.

After the cloud dissipated, they saw Zecora laying between the flowers. Zexis saw with fascination how her lips began to swell and her tits began to grow. With loud moans she tossed and turned as the Poison Jokes turned her into a caricature of herself. Her butt expanded and jiggled with every movement and her waist shrank.

When the curse was finished Zecora had turned from a broken shamaness into an oversexualized bimbo. Her lips dripped with saliva and lustful moans and her fingers plunged into her sloppy cunt.

"Holy shit...", whispered Birdhoof.

Zexis nodded. He knew that Poison Joke always turned ones traits against him, but this was....a very strong reaction. Did it have anything to do with Zecoras mental state? Or had the Will interfered? He didn´t know, but it warranted further research.

"Pluck some of those flowers.", he ordered Birdhoof.

"Are you sure? I mean..."

"Just do it!"

Birdhoof flinched, but complied. Carefully he enveloped a few flowers into his dirt-green telekinesis and ripped them out of the ground. As he levitated them towards Zexis, the zebra took out a pouch, in which he had carried some alchemical ingredients yesterday and let the flowers fall into it. He quickly closed it, making sure no pollen could escape and infect him.

"Good job.", he said and turned around.

Birdhoof followed him. "And we´re just going to leave her there? What if she is attacked?"

Zexis waved his hand dismissively. "No predator touches the Poison Joke. She is as safe in there, as she could ever be in the Everfree. And besides...something tells me she enjoys her current state." He snickered, as he listened to the whorish moans of the bimbofied zebra. "Now come, I need to liberate a school!"

With that they walked away, towards Ponyville. All the way listening to the fading groans and moans of the once proud shamaness, as she slowly descended into lustful madness...

Ponyville School, Midday

Zexis watched intensly as the fillies walked into the classroom. Most of them looked around curiously. The room was darkened, with drapes over the windows. Only a few candles gave a bit of light and strewn across the room were incense, giving away a sweetly odour.

Diamond Tiara and her friend Silver Spoon looked annoyed at the extra class. Some fillies, like Twist and Dinky seemed more interested. The rest just went along, not quite sure what to expect. The last to enter the classroom was Apple Bloom.

She had been discharged from the hospital and brought to school by her brother this morning. And from the looks of it the treatment had been a full success. She was demure and obedient. When she had seen Zexis, she had gone to him and apologized for all the trouble she caused. No word about his assault or Zecora.

She wore a nice red dress, that seemed to have been made three decades ago. It went down to her knees and gave her an orderly, almost conservative look. No work clothes, no sweaty pants. Instead she gave the perfect image of an submissive filly from the land. Clearly, Big Mac´s work.

When everypony was seated, Zexis closed the door. He went back to his desk and let the students wait for ten minutes. On one hand he wanted them to stew a bit, on the other hand needed the incense time to worm its way into the young brains. So he bided his time and pretended to look through his notes.

Eventually, the fillies became nervous. They already didn´t know what this was about and now their teacher seemed to have forgotten to begin the lesson. Soon enough Diamond Tiaras hand went up.

"Are we going to start now?", she asked haughtily.

Zexis looked up and appraised her. She already had a light flush. And Silver Spoon beside her squirmed a bit.

He smiled. "Of course, just needed to prepare some things.", he said and took a stack of papers. He then went around and gave each student a document.

Diamond frowned, as she saw a number of questions and lines of text. "A test?"

Zexis nodded. "Not a real one, of course. Just an....evaluation, so to speak.", he explained and returned to the front. "Since this is about cultural psychology and societal norms and their...misuse...it is important for me to find out, what kind of misconceptions and propagandistic material you have been exposed to." As he saw the confused looks of the fillies, he clarified: "I want to know, what you know. Or think you know..."

He took a bit of chalk. "We´re going to each of the questions seperately. Read them carefully, write down your answer and then we work through it."

The fillies nodded and went down to their paper. Soon, after they read the first question, a hand went up. Dinky. "Excuse me, Mr. Chikelu. But I think something is wrong here. Stallions are not--"

"Questions after the answers Dinky, please.", interrupted her Zexis.

Her hand went down and with a confused look, she went back to the test.

After about five to ten minutes, everpony was finished and they all looked with questioning looks at Zexis. All, except Apple Bloom.

Zexis himself wrote the first question on the board. "Stallions find themselves being discriminated in Equestrian Society. Explain why.", read Zexis and looked back at the class. "Any answers? Twist?"

The red-maned filly propped up her glasses and frowned. "Well, I didn´t experience discriminations against stallions, but...if have to make a guess it would be because of....birth numbers?", she said unsure.

"How do you come to that conclusion?" Zexis waved at her to continue.

"Well, statistically for every stallion born, there are two mares born as well. So, that would leave to some differences I think."

Zexis nodded and wrote her answer on the board. "That´s right. This 1/2 male-female ratio leads to a clear imbalance in the population. And imbalance leads to discrimination.", he explained. Then he pointed at Apple Bloom. "If I remember correctly, your brother talked with you about this at the hospital, right?"

Apple Bloom looked up, her dull eyes meeting Zexis and she nodded. "Yes sir. Brother said, that stallions are often overlooked in favour of mares, when it comes to jobs. Especially for anything that ain´t hard labor. They have great trouble becoming teachers, for example.", she answered.

Zexis nodded. They had drilled that into her head during her stay in the hospital, along other things. It seemed to have stuck. "If we exclude me and Dr. Time Turner, almost eighty percent of educational staff is female. The same goes for the goverment jobs, sciences and the arcane disciplines. Barring military services and constructions, stallions are a big minority in all parts of society. And in the latter two they barely make out fifty percent. Seems a bit strange, don´t you think?"

Now Diamond Tiara spoke up, not showing her hand. "Why? If stallions are only one third of the population then of course they are not being represented?"

"But we are not talking about thirty percent here, Tiara. And please show me your hand, if you want to speak. We are talking twenty, even ten percent. Most stallions stay at home raising the kids or have no jobs at all. Why is that?"

"Because mares are better.", said the spoiled filly. A small silence followed that statement. She looked around, frowning at the lack of support. "Oh come on, its true! Mares are smarter than stallions. All princesses are mares and the Elements too!", she said haughtily.

Zexis wrote the statement down. "Mares are simply better...", he said, tasting the words on his tongue. Then he turned around to face Diamond Tiara. "You know, this sentence is a very good example...for gender discrimination."

"Now it is a sentiment that I can understand you for having. And a lot of your friends here probably agree with you, even if they don´t say it out loud." Sweetie wanted to open her mouth, but Zexis held his hand up and stopped her. "It makes sense, if you look back. Like you said, almost all the great leaders in the history of Equestria were mares and Celestia and Luna themselves are a good example of the perceived superiority of mares."

"But it´s a sentiment based on flawed logic." He looked around, catching each of his students gaze. "Because you are so used to statistical evidence, you don´t perceive the fallacies that can come with it."

"Because Equestrian Society is a matrilineal society, mares obtain more chances to showcase their ability and leadership. Because they have more chances, they subsequently achieve more successes just on sheer chance alone. On the flipside, stallions have a harder time reaching the same amount of success, due to the difficulties obtaining a position of power in the first place and therefore the illusion of them being less skilled comes into existence."

"This fallacy gets used as an excuse to bar them from more opportunities of authorities and power and the cycle continues. All of this, leads to the very same discriminatory statement you just brought forth, Tiara.", said Zexis.

Then a smile crept up his lips. "I´m now going to suggest something pretty outlandish for your ears. I think mares are the expendable gender." He looked around and sure enough confusion could be seen on the faces on the fillies. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon even seemed offended.

"Mr. Chikelu, this is...stupid! Why should we be expendable. We rule Equestria!", protested Silver Spoon angrily.

Zexis waited until the room calmed down and then continued. "Simple reason. Math and Sociology. Because stallions only make up one third of the population we have, as stated before, an imbalance. But for , well, procreation you need both genders to participate. That means that unless multiple mares share one stallion, a few mares will always lack a partner for producing offspring, one of the fundamental desires of our bodies. This means there is competition among mares to find a partner and because of the bigger pool of choices, the stallions usually have the first say in which partner they prefer."

Zexis gauged the reaction of the room. Most fillies now listened intently, though some of them blushed about his casual mention of sex. His scientific, even sterile wording however kept it from becoming an issue. "This all leads to one conclusion. Stallions are valuable. Just by the sheer mathematical rarity. And that means that any position that may threaten their numbers, gets overtaken by the mares in order to ensure their survival. And which position in society is the most hazardous? Warriors."

Now Dinky raised her hand. "But you said that the military is one of few jobs, stallions are not a complete minority."

"Yes, now.", countered Zexis, "But thousands of years ago, at the beginning of pony culture, this was not the case. Back then, warfare was a mare´s job. And because of this they gained access to one of the most easiest ways to acquire power: Violence. Through violence, warfare and the prestige tied to it, they took over the leadership position. This then expanded into almost all positions of authority in society. A state that had prevailed almost entirely until today."

"And it´s not because mares are superior and smarter than stallions. It because mares are expendable. A loss of their lives can be taken by a society without threatening their survival. A stallion cannot be risked so easily and as such are of more worth to society and are sheltered. This is the main reason why mares get privileged positions and stallions get inferior ones.", explained Zexis, looking at his students. Diamond and Silver seemed completely unconvinced, but the rest looked thoughtful. It helped that Zexis argument was founded on logic, instead of emotional arguments. If he was honest, there were more reason to it. Arguments that would actually support the theory of male superiority, but he figured that it was too early for that. First he needed to shake their confidence in their own privileges.

He clapped in his hands. "Now, let´s continue the test. On to the next question. Don´t worry, we have a lot of time."

The fillies groaned.

...

"And repeat after me: Mares are expendable."

"Mares are expendable.", repeated the entire classroom. Most of them had glazed eyes and heavily flushed cheeks. The incense had dug its way into their brain and made them suggestible.

Zexis grinned. He was making more progress than he thought. "Your privileges are based on injustices."

"Our privileges are based on injustices."

"Very good.", said Zexis and looked at the clock. "And we are almost out of time."

That seemed to wake the fillies up, especially Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, who seemed glad for this lesson to be over. Most of them began to talk to each other or pack their backpacks.

"Now, please remember about your homework: Research possible solutions to the societal dicrepancies and write down possible ways to elevate stallions to higher status. Have a nice day!"

With that he opened the door and with the fresh air, new life sprang up in the students, who now streamed out of the classroom. As Zexis packed in his own papers, he was prodded by someone behind him. He turned around and saw Dinky.

The little filly looked a bit ashamed, but determinded, as she bowed her head to Zexis. "I wanted to apologize. It is truly inexcusable what we mares did to stallions all this time.", she said.

Zexis just laughed and held her chin upward. She blushed at his touch and he grinned inside, happy about the reaction. "It´s fine. You cannot help yourself there. It was just the way your were brought up. Next time, I will go into detail about...well the other factors, but for now you should know that I don´t hold it against you. You are young, you can still change."

The blond unicorn smiled at that and joined her friends, as she waved goodbye to her teacher. Zexis just waved back and whispered: "Indeed, you will change..."

His eyes went outside, seeing the colts leave the building as well. Others than the fillies, who mostly looked thoughtful and discussed the last lesson, the colts seemed to look either excited or...proud. Rumble in particular grinned from ear to ear and Zexis could spot how he looked at the fillies, his eyes having an almost predatory look on them. The zebra smiled. Seemed like Miss Cheerilee had been even more successful in...liberating her students than he had.

Diamond Tiara walked up to an expensive looking carriage, drawn by two strong stallions. On it sat an older mare with a light pink fur and highly stylized violet hair. As her daughter entered the carriage she seemed to ask her something and Diamond´s answer prompted her to look to the school. Her eyes had a steely gaze and for a brief moment, Zexis had the feeling she had seen him. Then she gave a command to her driver, a stallion with a silver coat and bushy moustache, and they were off.

He shrugged his shoulders and turned around. A quick glance showed that the room was empty. And when he looked out in the corridor, it was deserted as well.

Then he walked up the cupboard in the back. He opened the door and looked at Scootaloo. The young mare sat in the corner, her eyes glazed and broken. She was naked, except the ropes with which she was bound and the gag in her mouth. A dildo stuck in her sopping wet cunt and two vibrators were taped to her nipples. The entire space stank of sweat and juices. A smell that had been covered by the incenses the entire time.

Zexis grinned and slapped her lightly on the cheek. "Wake up, sunshine.", he whispered.

"Mmphhfff?" Scootaloo looked up and saw her master. A dumb grin appeared on her face and she leaned in to rub her muzzle against his hand. She looked utterly tired and wrecked, as she tried to crawl out of the cupboard.

"Oh no no no...", said Zexis and pushed her back gently. "I can´t play with you, yet. I still have a date. But after that, I will give you all fun you want. So stay here a bit longer, will you?"

The filly stared at him, before slowly nodding. Then her dildo vibrated and a muffled moan went through her gag, as the piece prodded her oversensitive pussy.

Zexy just smiled and closed the door.

At the edge of the Everfree, early afternoon

"There you are!", said Starlight Glimmer, as she saw Zexis walking down the street towards the Everfree. She stood there, hands at her hips and looking a bit displeased. "We were about to go without you. What took you so long?"

"Sorry, still had to make some preparations back home. Didn´t want to go into this empty-handed.", said Zexis. He pulled back his sleeve and showed his arm. On his striped fur were intricate lines, that continued from his stripes or intersected them in an intricate pattern of runes and signs.

"Ooooh!", exclaimed Twilight, as she examined Zexis arm. "Is that arcane ink?" The princess wore a thick, sleeveless dark violet robe, that brimmed with magical power. Her arms were covered by long gloves that went up to her upper arms and were stitched with runic patterns. On her head was an tiara, that Zexis recognized as a magical focus.

"Indeed. I made some myself and applied it in the ancient arts of tattoo of my people. Kinda like spellscribing, only on your body. It´s basic, at this point and only holds one spell. But I think I can enhance it later on to contain more.", explained Zexis. It was an idea had gained yesterday. Along with some instructions in the enchanment and alchemy books, he had been able to craft some arcane ink and capture some magical essence. It had been an arduous process, but in the end he had made enough progress, that he could expect better results later on.

"And what spell did you store?", asked Starlight, her curiosity also piqued. She wore a similar get-up to Twilight. Her robe was light-green and resembled more a traditional cloak, with hood and all. She also carried a weird staff, with two protusions from it like a wishbone and twisted in the middle.

"Just Reinforcement. Given that you are much better spellcaster than me, I figured that a bit durability in close combat couldn´t help. Not that I expect anything coming close to us, with you three here." Zexis smiled at Twilight, who grinned proudly and looked at Spike and Starlight.

Spike himself looked like his usual self. He held a small rod with a blue sapphire on it and had nothing else on him. He seemed determined, as he looked at forest before him. "Stronger bones and skin can only help us. Rockodiles are not deterred by simple beams and there are enough beasts in the Everfree that don´t care much for shields.", he stated grimly.

"If everything goes right, we won´t have to worry about that.", said Starlight. "The Tracker located Zecora half an hour ago in the border regions of the forest west from here. So we don´t have to go deep."

"And if we do come upon something really dangerous, I can always teleport us out.", added Twilight. Then she stepped towards the forest. "Now, lets go. We have a friend to save."

Zexis and the others nodded and together they entered the cursed, wild Everfree.

Zexis smiled a bit. Spike looked at him. "Something funny?", he asked.

"No, not really.", answered the zebra, shaking his head. "I just thought, that this is how books usually start. You know, heroic adventurers entering a dungeon - or forest in this case. Never thought to be part of it..."

The little dragon chuckled a bit. "Well, get used to that. Twilight always gets into trouble. And it seems like you are now part of the group, she will drag into it."

"What kind of group?"

"My friends.", said Twilight, looking back and smiling at Zexis. "The people, who help me and are willing to go out of their way to help others. I think it wouldn´t be wrong to call you that now."

For a moment Zexis was speechless. His face fell.

Twilight blinked confused and stopped walking, as she saw the zebra stallion freeze. "Everything okay? Did I offend you?"

Zexis shook his head and gave her smile. "No! Its okay...I´m just not used...to this.", he said, "To be honest, you´re the first one to call me a...friend."

The princess expression changed to pity. "Oh...well, if that´s the case..." Then she smiled at him, making his heart flutter. "We should make sure that I won´t be the last, Zexis!" With that she winked at him and strode forward.

Zexis looked back at her and for a moment he felt strange...almost sad. No, it was something else. More like...disappointment. At himself. That he needed to lie to that mare. That he manipulated her, who only helped him and supported him the entire time. It was alien, to feel that way. To feel guilty.

He did not like it.

He shook his head and continued onwards, following the others. So deep in his own conflicting thoughts was he, that he did not see Starlight looking at him from the side and her eyes narrowing.

...

"Arcana fulgens!"

Starlights staff glowed, aether flowing from her horn into the rod, gathering in a condensed ball of energy. Then it burst forth in a beam of light striking moss-golem in front of them. The golem was thrown on his back and the impact shattered it into hundreds of tiny pieces that were lit on the fire by the powerful spell.

Starlight eased her stance an looked around. "That´s the last one.", she said.

Around the laid them remnants of Timberwolves, burned, charred and scattered. Twilight hovered down from her spot in the air, he wide wings folding on her back. Spike spat out a piece of left-over dragon spit, that burned in small hole in the grass. "Seems that way.", he said, before turning around to Zexis, who was kneeling on the ground. "Any more problems?"

"No. That was all.", answered the zebra and stood up. He wiped the sweat from his brow. "The Will has retreated for the time being. But we should hurry. I don´t want to know, what it throws at us next."

Twilight nodded. "Good that you can tap into the arcane network of the forest. Otherwise they surely would have ambushed us here.", she praised him.

Zexis just grinned. "Well, I can´t compete with you when it comes to fighting. So, I´m just glad that I can be of some use.", he said humbly. Again that twinge of guilt at lying to Twilight. The truth was that the Will had retreated at his behest. Zexis had originally planned to split the group through some ambushes, but seeing their combat prowess, it was clear to him that that was a fruitless endeavour.

Starlights rapid fire spellwork made mincemeat out of anything big and Spikes fire-breath took care of the small fry. Add to that Twilight´s support spells and the fact that she could teleport them out of anything that seemed too dangerous and it was clear that short of an actual dragon, nothing could give this group trouble.

So, he abandoned that plan and asked the Will to let up. Not easy, given their earlier conversation, but he had succeeded in the end. Even something as angry and ancient as the Everfree didn´t want to mess with Twilight Sparkle, if it wasn´t strictly necessary.

The rod in Spikes hand began to glow. "Ah, seems we´re close.", said the dragon and marched forward, following the direction the device pointed to.

"I wasn´t aware that you had such a deep connection to the land.", mused Starlight, as they followed the dragon.

Zexis shrugged his shoulders. "It´s plants actually. My tribe´s affinity was always strong in that regard and as a son to a witch-doctor...well, I have picked up a thing or two.", he said.

The unicorn nodded, stroking her chin. "True, but even so I don´t think there are many who can connect to something so wild and unstable like wild magic. Especially the Everfree."

"Is that a compliment?", joked Zexis and grinned. "I must admit, I´m a little bit proud if what you´re saying is true. Seems like I am more skilled than I thought."

"Hmm, maybe...", said Starlight skeptically. "Or you have an affinity to this particular kind of entity." She looked at him from the side and her eyes were sharp as she mustered him. "Say, do you have any experiences with certain spells like...mind control or the like?"

Zexis immediately got wary. This mare was smart. Too smart. He still put on a deceptive smile and laughed. "Oh please, no. I left that unsavory practice behind, when I left my tribe. In fact, it was the very reason I walked away in the first place. Terrible things.", he lied smoothly.

Starlight nodded, but didn´t let up. "Indeed. But I think---"

"I found her!", yelled Spike, bringing their conversation to a sudden end and earning himself a silent thanks from Zexis for getting that mare of his back.

They all rushed forward, Spike parting the leaves in front of him.

Then they stared at the wide field of the blue Poison Joke. And the deformed, naked zebra inside of it. Zecora moaned and writhed on the ground, her hand deep into her dripping snatch, as she masturbated in broad daylight. Twilight gasped at the sight and even Starlight looked utterly shocked.

Then Zecora saw them and a mad grin appeared on her face. Her hand whipped forward and she pointed at Zexis. "Cooooooooooock.....", she moaned. Her thick, juicy lips smacking against each other. She giggled, as she licked them and now looked at Spike. "Need coooock.....more.....fuuucking...."

Twilight held her hand before her mouth. "Oh my gods....Zecora, no....", she whispered. Her horn lit up and Zecora was enveloped in a violet aura, before she was picked up by Twilight and levitated out of the flowerfield.

She giggled as she touched the ground. Nothing was left of the former shamaness, as she crawled towards Zexis, grabbed his leg and grinned upwards to him. Her tongue hang out and she grinned stupidly. "Need a good fuuucking. Please, fuuuck meeee...."

Zexis gently pried her arms from his legs and looked at the others. Spike looked away, clearly uncomfortable. Starlight looked at Zecora in her usual analytical way, probably trying to figure out what happened to her. And Twilight...

Twilight was crying. She just stared at Zecora, her face torn in grief, her hand before her mouth. "We are too late....by Celestia, we are too late...", she sobbed.

And Zexis again felt that stabbing pain in his chest. Seeing Twilight like that...knowing that it was him who caused her distress. He didn´t care for Zecora or Spike or Starlight. But seeing Twilight like that. It made him feel like....like a monster.

He looked down on Zecora. All triumph and glee he felt from her fall had evaporated. As he heard Twilight cries behind him, he felt nothing but....guilt. He gritted his teeth.

His hands went into his trousers and he pulled out a small pouch. He opened it and poured a small bit of white powder into his hands. He kneeled down, so he was at eye level with the broken zebra. And then blew the powder into her face.

Zecora hacked and coughed, before taking a deep breath. Her eyes fluttered and moments later her arms and legs gave out and she fell to the ground. Asleep.

"Let´s bring her to Ponyville. To the hospital", said Zexis.

"Good idea. We...surely they will find a cure there.", said Starlight and took off her cloak, throwing it over Zecoras naked body. "Twilight, can you teleport us out of here? The faster we bring her into medical care, the better."

Twilight nodded, still clearly distressed. Her horn glowed and with a loud BAMF they vanished.

Ponyville Hospital

"As far as we can determine, she suffers under an overdosage of Poison Joke.", said Dr. Sharp Needle. The green unicorn stallion looked at his clipboard. His horn was long and filed to an almost comical sharpness. How he didn´t stab somepony with it every day, was a small miracle.

Twilight gasped in shock. "Th-that´s treatable, right? I have the recipe for the antidote. I can---"

"I´m sorry, princess.", Needle interrupted her. He pulled the glasses from his nose and looked at her with pity. "I´m afraid with such a strong infection...it is most likely permament..."

The alicorn just stared at him, before breaking down. Her legs gave out under her and she fell down on a nearby chair. Spike walked up to her and gave her a consoling hug.

Starlight turned to the doctor. "And there is nothing we can do?"

The stallion shook his head. "I can ask for Dr. Simmer from Canterlot. She is the foremost expert on magical diseases, but...." He scratched his head, trying to think of something. "Maybe her body works through the poison on its own. But that takes time...."

He looked with sad eyes at the group. "I´m sorry. There is nothing I can do." With that he left them, walking back into the patient-room.

Zexis looked at him through the glass, as he stood over Zecoras unconscious body. The others were too occupied with their grief, but he saw the lust of the stallion as he stared over the thick curves of the cursed zebra. It seemed like Redheart had already begun her work on the staff.

But Zexis wasn´t happy. All the joy he could feel on the successful deception had turned to ash in his mouth. All because of Twilight´s pain. It was strange to see her like this. He wanted her to smile, to laugh. To look at him, rather than cry into her hands. It was irritating. Frustrating.

He turned around to the others. "You´re....going to be fine?", he asked awkwardly.

Starlight looked at him, before nodding. "Yes....we´re going to bring Twilight back to the castle. And begin to research a cure. There must be something there."

Zexis nodded. "Good luck with that." Then he looked over to Twilight. He opened his mouth.

Just a lie. Like usual. A sweet, comforting lie, that would make her smile and blow away her worries.

But he couldn´t. He closed his mouth and turned away. "I´m sorry.", he mumbled and walked away.

Scoots screamed in lust as Zexis thrusted forward. Again and again, he pounded the young mare like a madstallion, rocking the table on which she lay. "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!!", he cursed and punched deeper.

The filly just gargled in joy and pain as his prick hammered her insides. Her eyes had rolled into her head and she just hanged over the table limp, getting reamed like blow-up doll.

"Stupid! Fucking! SHIT!", yelled Zexis. "I couldn´t do jack! Just stood there like an idiot! I could have talked to Spike! Maybe egg him on. Or put some fucking drugs into his body and tell him to jack off to Zecora. Anything to stop that baby from being a fucking cuck!"

He slapped the orange pegasus´ ass, which was beet-red from all the abuse. "I could have done something about that stupid Starlight-bitch! Talk to her! Mess with her! But I didn´t do shit!"

He grunted and felt his climax approaching. In one final thrust he delved forward, hilting himself in the slutty young mare. His cockhead flared and his balls contracted, as his spunk filled Scootaloo´s womb and bringing the depraved pegasus to her own spasming orgasm.

As Zexis´ high dissipated, he pulled out. He let the filly go, letting her lay with her back on the schooltable. Her belly had a nice bump, that on good days would have given Zexis another hard-on. But today all his energy was gone. His frustration and rage had evaporated and were replaced by melancholy, as he stared into the empty classroom.

"What the fuck is wrong with me?", he asked.

"Oh, I would have a whole list for that."

Zexis sprang up. His head jerked around to the direction the voice had come from. There, in the frame of the door, stood an older mare with a light pink fur and highly stylized violet hair. Beside her a big stallion with silver coat and a bushy moustache in butler uniform.

"Let´s begin with Number One: Zexis Chikelu fucks his own students.", said Spoiled Rich.

Author's Note

Aaand I´m back!

Sorry, that it took so long. I originally planned to bring this chapter out in september, but my own laziness and a really nasty writer block got in the way. :applejackconfused:
But I got over it and found a good way to deal with blocks in the future, so these kind of delays should not happen again. I hope...

On to the chapter. I choose to split it, mostly because I am not happy how the second part came out and want to work on it once more. Maybe with some input from you in between helps.
I also brought it out this time, without going over with my editor with this. I would like to apologize for that, but I think its about time I bring this cursed thing out. I will of course, correct any mistakes you find.

On an other note, I actually put some real-life bio-sociological theory in this chapter. Just swap female and male and you got the explanation, why humans tend to patriarchal societies.
Now, obviously Zexis manipulates and twists this theory to his own needs, but the core of it is very much true. Man are the more expendable gender and our position of power originates from our monopoly on violence. I will probably talk in more detail in my blog about it. Check it out, if you´re interested.

I would leave the rest to you and I hope you enjoy this little chapter and forgive my long hiatus. Have fun! :pinkiehappy:

Slipping Control

Zebris's actually feeling guilty. Shit, I knew this was bad. We need to make him cut ties with Twilight for the time being or find ways to corrupt her as fast as possible so she'll be "happy" with his actions. Either way, something must be done.

On the flipside, It look like Spoiled Bitch decided to confront him directly. She wouldn't have bothered if she had alerted the authorities, so we're good on this part. Considering her personality, she likely intend to blackmail him for favors wich present an opportunity. Indeed, someone who believe themselves in control is more easily manipulated, so he'll have plenty of chance to take control without her noticing. Let's see what she want first.

BZZZZZZZT...........Click!

Well Zexis fucked that up! Lets see what we can suggest to fix this situation. First we can assume with reasonable certainty that Spoiled Rich wants to blackmail us for some sort of favour other wise there would be little point to her announcing herself rather than getting the authorities. If we assume this we have a small amount of room to negotiate the key to this is make sure we control the situation or flow of the conversation. Unfortunately Zexis is already on the back foot hear as he has been caught in comprising position and thus is already lost control of the situation.

In such situation the best way to regain control of the situation is to surprise your opponent by doing something unexpected or the opposite of what they expect. In this case I recommend that Zexis picks up Scootaloo and continue fucking her brains out while stating that she get on with her demands for keeping this secret. Hopefully this will throw off her game as I rather doubt Spolied would expect anyone to continue acting in such as way particular in such a situation. Also offer for her and friend to take a seat as you may be a while, this will most likely make her angry as Zexis is not treating her with any sort of respect. She should then either demand Zexis stop what he doing or will storm out. Now from here we have a few option we can either try to solve the situation now with a large gamble or try for a longer game.

The gamble option or idea can only happen If she ask Zexis to stop. If this is the situation he should do so reluctantly then proceed to set up an area for discussion making sure to light some of the lust candles if he has any and claim them to be a aroma therapy candle to help him relax. Following this he should offer to put on some tea for their discussion and lace the whole pot with a heavy dose of the truth pills if he can making sure that he drinks the tea first to show that it appear harmless then making sure that both Spoiled and the the Butler drink the tea. If Spoiled and the butler drink the tea and the candle are on hopefully this might be enough to rise their lust to almost uncontrollable levels which Zexis can then hopeful use to start a orgy. Tin Soilder lust level are above average and we might be able to drive them over the edge even temporarily. I also have a suspicion that Tin Solider secret might be that he is Spoiled Riches lover/paramour I have no evidence for this but she clearly trust him enough to let him watch as she blackmail a someone who is breaking at least a dozen laws. If we can do this we can turn the situation on Spoiled Rich and black mail her right back particular if we can get some photos of them in the act even better if we have a couple with Scootaloo invoved. But as I stated this is a huge gamble option.

The safer option would be to find out what Spoiled Rich wants and if possible Identify what makes her corruption so high and try to push it to the max over time as well as pushing Tin Soldiers lust as high as possible. After all as Kors stated it is always so much easier to manipulate some one who thinks there in control. But this will take time and I would not be surprised if Spoiled would try to back stab us later which means Zexis would have a metaphorical execution axe over his head until her could solve this situation.

Any way these are the two general approaches that I can see to deal with our current situation we technically could try to fight but I doubt that it would work out well particularly with Tin Solider ability of Battle Butler. Unless Scootlaloo could distract him long enough for us to capture and hold Spoiled in a position that we could then leverage Tin Soilder into doing as we ask such as taking a couple of dosages of the Truth Pills and then having Scootaloo getting him horny enough to let his lust take control. But I highly doubt that she could do it

What ever we chose to do I do not think we should have Spoiled as a ally she is to likely to stab us in the back and besides I would like to see her perfect image ruined.

Now the other issue which lead to Zexis current situation is Princess Sparkle and her "Friendship Aura" which is affecting our avatar making him feel guilt and wanting to be friends with Twilight. At the moment their is little we can do about this other than have Zexis keep his distance from her until we can increase his stats hopefully increasing our Dominant trait will help with this as it states that it does help protect against mental magic and with our Enhanced Dominance ability it should hopefully be more effective.

All well that all I can think of at the moment and I have a load of paper work to do so that it for now.

yours sincerely

BZZZZZZZT...........Click!

Well, this is a fine pickle.

I recommend hearing her out, seeing what she wants. See if you can find a way to drug her and the butler at the same time, maybe try the incense or something. Best case scenario, we are able to turn her own bodyguard against her, at least temporarily, and have her give in to her lust for a bit. In that case, we could try and blackmail her back with photos or something, provided Zexis has a camera. Spoiled Bitch Rich is solely concerned with her own ego and public standing, meaning if we can dig up some dirt on her, she'll do almost anything to keep it from coming out... just be careful not to let your guard down, she may try to attack you to save her image.

Someone else suggested talking to her husband, trying to corrupt him and thus, her by proxy - let's see if we can't turn her into a proper housewife who knows her true place in society... and it sure ain't at the top!

If anything, it's on all fours at the bottom, sucking on any dick pointed her way.

Once the threat is dealt with, then we can focus again on the kids' proper educations, and on what to do with Twilight. I still recommend saving that corrupted memory potion for her, as it is a guaranteed success - the only barrier would be Zexis' feelings towards her. See if you can make some kind of shielding charm, I think her ambient magic is doing something to your mind. With those feelings out of the way... she's all yours.

Spoiled Rich’s hoofsteps rang sharply throughout the quiet room as she entered, her head held high, and her gaze fixed on Zexis. Zexis stared back at her in shock, transfixed by her icy blue gaze. She scowled at him in disgust.

Tearing his gaze away from her accusing stare, he took in other details of her appearance. His eyes were drawn first to her breasts. He estimated them to be about a C-Cup, the lines of them outlined behind a beautiful purple blouse, with her wide hips accentuated by a flowing black skirt that made her seem to glide as she moved across the ground. Her makeup was clear, but not overdone. A golden necklace graced her neck and two rings on her left hand glimmered brightly, showcasing her wealth.

Under other circumstances, Zexis would have been misled into seeing her as little more than eyecandy. But in that regard, he couldn't have been more wrong. There was a reason why Spoiled Rich was as successful as she was, and it wasn’t just due to riding on her husband's coattails.

"You know, I had been wondering what possessed Cheerilee to give someone like you a teaching position.", mused Spoiled as she ran a finger idly over one of the school desks. She pulled them up and frowned as she saw the dust on her fingertips.

"An Immigrant, with no background, no teaching certificate, and above all else..." she looked Zexis up and down, clicking her tongue. "A stallion.", she said, as if everything was said by that.

As she continued to pace, Zexis looked around, hoping some solution would present itself. Her bodyguard stood by the door, an imposing earth pony with a silver-grey coat and broad frame. A bushy moustache covered most of his face and his brown eyes looked disinterested, as if he was just doing his job. His heavy body made him look smaller than he actually was.

He looked dangerous enough in his own right, but he also had a loaded crossbow in his hand. Currently it was pointed at the floor, but Zexis had no doubt that any threat to Rich would result in a bolt through the chest. At this short range, it would be very hard for even an unskilled crossbowman to miss his mark, and this earth pony had the look of an experienced veteran.

A fight was therefore not a good idea.

Zexis looked beside him. Scoots was laying on the floor. She was still out of it, riding her orgasmic high with a dumb look on her face. Jizz was trickling out of her pussy slowly. Assistance from her was unlikely.

The zebra sighed. He had been caught with his pants down. Literally! He couldn't fight, and escaping would only be marginally better. All in all, his options were very limited. He looked back to Spoiled Rich. "Well, you caught me.", he said, defeated. "So, what do you want?"

"What makes you think I want anything?", asked the mare haughtily. She had stopped pacing and now stood by the window, blocking his escape route. The mare was not stupid, noted Zexis.

"Because you are here, talking with me. If you wanted to turn me in, I think you would have already done it. You could simply have notified the city guard, and they would be arresting me at this very moment. Gloating is something you could do through the bars of a cell while I’m imprisoned. No, the fact that you came in person indicates that you have some motive other than doing your civic duty.”

Spoiled smirked and looked him over once more. She didn't answer immediately, instead letting her eyes wander over to Scootaloo. Again, an expression of disgust crossed her face, but this time coupled with something that sent an uneasy chill down his spine: Calculation.

Eventually, Rich broke the silence. "You are a degenerate, Mr. Chikelu.", she stated. "You are a brute, a liar, and a fillyfooler. You wormed your way into Ponyville, and into this school. A fatal mistake for you."

Her piercing gaze moved back to rest on him once more. "Because you tried to take what is mine." Again that smirk. "The reason why I haven’t called the guard is because I wouldn't get anything out of it. But if I catch you, well. Depending to whom I sell you...."

"I´m sure the Mayor would be much more enthusiastic in supporting my endeavors if I were to lock up a serial sex offender for her. Or I could leverage your misdeeds to gain more influence on the school board." A sadistic smile appeared on her lips as she gave him a knowing look. "And I'm pretty sure Princess Twilight would be very interested to hear what you have been up to. A princess in my debt. Doesn’t that sound lovely?"

Zexis swallowed. He was trying to keep his cool, but panic was starting to set in on the edges of his mind. The situation was deteriorating rapidly. If Twilight found out, she would view him as a horrible pony. Not to mention, all of his plans would be ruined, all of his work for naught!

He shook his head. He needed to focus! There had to be a way out of this. If Spoiled Rich had wanted to ruin him, she could have already done it, without wasting her time here. No, this was a bargaining strategy. She was trying to push up the price by which he had to sell himself.

Zexis looked up to the older mare. She wanted to play this game? Fine, he would oblige her. He cleared his throat. "Fine words. But I don't think that’s really what you want."

"And why not?"

"Because I am much more worth to you as your agent than I am behind bars." Zexis watched her, looking for any reaction.

Spoiled kept her face neutral, but her eyes didn't leave him. "I doubt that. What possible use could a pony like you be?"

"I have talents. Talents that could be much more useful to you even than the favor of a princess.", said Zexis. "I can do things nopony else would be willing to do. I can get rid of rivals and obstacles. I can give you allies and… servants. You want the school? Fine, keep it. But I´m willing to bet that deep down, you desire more than just a ramshackle building with some fillies inside of it."

He leaned back in his chair, parting his legs and letting her get a good view of his toned chest. “Maybe some fun on your own?”, he asked with a confident smile. He didn't count on seducing her, but even just making her flustered would be a win.

Spoiled Rich again showed no reaction, instead inspecting her fingernails. Then she gave a sharp, short laugh. She looked over to her bodyguard. "See? I told you, Tin. He is so predictable."

Zexis shot a confused glance at the stallion, who just shrugged his shoulders. "Whatever you say, ma'am."

Spoiled snickered. Then she stepped forward and grabbed Zexis’ chin, forcing him to look at her again. "I know stallions like you, Mr. Chikelu. You think you can survive in this situation? That you have control? That you can manipulate me? Please."

She let him go, walking back to the window again, and looking out over the schoolyard. "You stallions are so easy to understand. All of your thoughts’ originate from that thing between your legs."

She snorted in disgust. "I don´t need you. Your skills are not as exclusive as you think they are. I can easily afford as many professional sweet-talkers and charming playstallions as I desire. You are an amateur."

She turned around and walked through the door. "We're finished here. I thought you would be worth something. Disappointingly, it is not the case.", she said. "Tin Soldier, notify the princess. We have a friendship problem for her."

Zexis let his head hang. This was it. He had overplayed his hand. There was no other option left to him but to fight. If Spoiled reached Twilight it would be the end for him. As slim as his chances seemed, he needed to attempt to get rid of her and her bodyguard by force.

He tensed up. First, he would strike the stallion. Close the distance before he could raise the crossbow. With a bit of luck, he would be fast enough. Then a kick to the groin, a strike to the neck, crushing his windpipe. After that, he would deal with Spoiled. How he would hide the bodies and cover everything up, he didn´t know. But he could worry about that later.

"Wha---What is going on?"

Just as Zexis was just about to jump into action, a movement to the side caught his eye. Scootaloo was regaining her consciousness. The filly groggily tried to prop herself up, shivering at the cold. "Fuck, that was...awesome.", she mumbled and giggled.

Zexis stared at her. Then he got an idea. "Scoots?", he said, getting her attention.

"Yes?"

"Slap yourself."

SLAP!

Spoiled turned around at the sound. To her surprise, she saw Scootaloo holding her cheek with a grin, a red imprint of her hand on it. "What are you doing?", she asked.

"Following my orders.", answered the young mare, without a care in the world.

Zexis smiled. "Do it again. Harder.", he ordered her.

The orange pegasus nodded and raised her right hand. With a loud slap she hit herself again. Her head rocking to the other side. Instead of wincing at the pain, she grinned happily. Then, without hesitation, she repeated the process. Left, right, left, right. Slapping herself over and over, shivering and twitching.

Finally she stopped, with swollen cheeks, shivering from arousal and pain. Zexis looked to Spoiled, who stood at the door staring at the filly. Her expression conveyed a mix of disgust, bewilderment and, again, cold calculation.

"Can your money buy that too?", he asked softly.

She looked at him, now with renewed interest. "What did you do to her?"

He shrugged his shoulders. "I trained her. With my...skills." He grinned.

The mare didn´t grin back. But she didn't walk out either. Instead her gaze moved back to Scootaloo again. The filly was now absentmindedly fingering her cum-stained pussy, not minding that she was naked in the slightest. Or caring about the fact that Spoiled was watching her.

Finally, she nodded. "Change of plans. You will come over to my mansion tomorrow morning.", she told Zexis. She pointed at her bodyguard. "He will pick you up."

Zexis gave a big sigh of relief on the inside, but kept his face neutral. "When?"

"You will know when.", answered Spoiled Rich and walked out the door. Her butler followed her, but not before throwing a last look at Zexis and Scootaloo. Then, shouldering his crossbow, he walked away.

Zexis waited until he was certain they were out of earshot. Then he slumped down on his chair, throwing his face in his hands. "Too fucking close.", he mumbled. All the tension left his body and he took several deep breaths to regain his composure.

"Damn right! I nearly climaxed.", commented Scootaloo, pointing at her red cheeks. Then she gave him a greedy smile. "Wanna help with that?"

Zexis gave her a playful slap, and the filly giggled in delight.

The next morning, Flower Shop

Zexis paced nervously back and forth in front of the Flower Shop. He had waited for close to an hour now, and his patience was wearing thin. He was very well aware that this was just another game Spoiled Rich played with him. She was letting him stew in his discomfort.

The problem was, even knowing this Zexis couldn't do much about it. At any time, Spoiled could change her mind, and send the guard to show up and arrest him. He couldn't rest easy. Even worse, he couldn't even prepare much beyond the basics. He needed time for that and her envoy could show up at any moment.

His teeth grated, even while he tried to keep on a happy facade, as customers visited the store. Most greeted him and he waved back as if everything was alright. Thankfully most of the ponies that came by weren't very astute, or if they were, they weren't making an issue of his discomfort.

While he waited, he noticed that there seemed to be more stallions visiting the Flower Shop than usual. Good, that meant that the girls advances towards them had finally paid off. Coupling the flowers themselves with some of the trinkets they added to the bouquets had apparently caused a rumor to spread in town that their flowers brought good luck for ponies in love.

Zexis sighed. That was one item of good news, at least. Roseluck had also recuperated enough to start working again, though she still seemed off, and needed to take a lot of breaks to cool off. But when this happened, her friends covered for her, and so far nopony had seen the need to pry deeper. But Zexis was aware that wouldn't work forever. He needed to step up his game, if he wanted to keep Roseluck’s strange behaviour under wraps. The town needed to see her newfound promiscuity as something normal.

As he looked up, he finally saw the butler approaching. He wore a long leather-jacket that metal studs in it. Coupled with the heavy crossbow over his back, he looked more like a warrior than a butler. It looked especially jarring when seen in the picturesque setting of Ponyville. Zexi wondered if he did it on purpose, or just wasn´t aware of it.

He stepped up and bowed his head slightly. "Mrs. Rich will see you now, Mr. Chikelu.", he said. His voice was not too deep and had a raspy tone to it, like he had sand in his throat.

Zexis nodded. "I guess you’ll show me the way?"

The stallion nodded and gestured for the zebra to follow him.

As they walked down the road, Zexis cast oblique glances at his guide. With the daylight, he managed to pick up a few more details. The guard's eyes’ were in constant motion, flicking between passing ponies, doorways, alleys, and other possible sources of threat. His gait gave the impression of controlled power, with no wasted motion. It seemed like this stallion was always on guard. A former soldier, perhaps?

"I didn't catch your name last time.", said Zexis in hopes of getting a conversation going.

"That's because I didn't tell you."

Zexis sighed. was it too much to ask for a soldiering type like him to exhibit any kind of sociability? Then again, this guy had seen him fucking Scootaloo so it was to be expected that he would not have warm feelings towards Zexis.

"Well, what is your name then?"

"Tin Soldier."

"Soldier. So, you used to be in the guard?"

"No." The reply was curt, obviously intended to curtail any further discussion.

An uncomfortable silence fell over them. The stallion was obviously not interested in talking, but what could break through the ice. Zexis pondered the question as they passed by various shops, stalls and merchants hawking their wares. If he could only get the soldier to open up to him a little, he could prove to be a valuable resource.

Perhaps humor would work. Zexis tried again. “So, your boss's name is Filthy? Do you take mud baths together or something?"

The guard sighed, and continued on, ignoring him.

Zexis pushed ahead, unabashedly.

“Because, if you do--”

"We're here.", interrupted Tin Soldier.

Zexis looked up, and took a few steps back. They stood before an iron gate. A path leading through a well manicured lawn stretched before them. It led to the porch of an extravagant manor house, with many floors, and large bay windows. On either side of the path, large fountains burbled noisily, and a large flower garden suffused the air with sweet aromas. The manor itself was big enough that Zexis was sure that before Twilight's Castle popped up, it must have been the biggest building in town.

It took a moment for Zexis to notice that his jaw was open. He quickly closed it, as Tin Soldier opened the gate and led him inside. As they walked past the garden, Zexis could see two mares tending the flowers and greenery.

Inside the manor, the main hall was filled with riches. Full sets of display armor stood like silent sentinels along one wall, and large portraits depicting famous ponies were on display. Every visible surface seemed to consist of either marble or gold. An elderly butler met them at the door, nodded to tin, then moved away.

Zexis looked around and suddenly felt very self-conscious about his leather-jacket and jeans. On the other hand, he noticed that all of the wealth being displayed seemed very...on the nose. It was like the owners of this mansion wanted ponies to witness their power, practically throw it in their face. It didn't have that subtle beauty of the Friendship Castle, or the confident dominance of Canterlot. No, this seemed more like the house of somepony who was used to being poor and now was overcompensating by indulging in gaudy displays of wealth.

At that moment, a door to the side opened and a middle-aged stallion stepped forth. His skin, underneath a formal black business suit and white undershirt, was of a light-brown color with his black mane styled neatly back. He saw Zexis and gave a perfect business smile, flashing a set of perfect white teeth. The kind that showed just enough friendliness without committing to the emotion strongly.

"Ah, Mr. Chikelu. So nice to see you. I am Filthy Rich. Please call me Rich.", he said in a jovial tone of voice and stepped forward to shake Zexis hand. "I have heard a lot of good things about you."

Zexis hid his surprise and smiled back. Apparently Spoiled had not told her husband. Curious. And convenient.

He took Mr. Rich´s hand. "Thank you for inviting me."

"You are most welcome, to be sure, although the invitation actually originated with my wife. She is most eager to meet you. You really seem to have caught her eye.", explained Filthy Rich and laughed. "Do I need to be worried?"

"Certainly not”, Zexis assured him, smiling. “It likely has to do with the education of your daughter. Diamond has been slacking on her homework these past few weeks."

"Ah, yes. That might be it." Filthy nodded slowly. "That filly is in her rebellious phase right now. It had to come sooner or later. Though my dear wife seemed to have problems with her attitude. I´m sure--"

"Filthy, dear, we must not keep our guest standing in the foyer.", A voice sounded from above. Spoiled Rich was descending the central staircase. In contrast to yesterday, she now wore blue, slim pants that hugged her bottom, and a black shirt with a tight collar and long sleeves that puffed out near her hands.

"There you are, Spoiled. I was just having a nice chat with Mr. Chikelu here and--", started her husband.

"And you have important business to tend to. It would be unwise to spend an undue amount of time here with my guest, darling. Let me see to him, I have certain matters I want to discuss with him that you needn’t trouble yourself with.”

"Well, yes. But I thought--"

"Filthy. Less thinking, more working. I take care of all unpleasantries. You focus on the things you’re good at.", interrupted Spoiled once more, and this time Zexis could hear the venom in her voice.

Filthy shut his mouth. He threw an apologetic smile to Zexis before quietly leaving the hall. The zebra looked after him. It was pretty obvious who truly ran this mansion.

"Don't you think you should treat your husband better?", he commented.

"Worry less about my marriage, and more about your own life, Mr. Chikelu. I am still playing with the idea of throwing you to the dogs. Figuratively speaking." She gestured him to follow her. "Come now. I want to discuss your situation in private."

They walked up the stairs, and then through a hallway. At the end of it, Tin Soldier opened a door and Zexis stepped into what seemed to be Spoiled’s private room. On the wall, he could see a portrait of a mare, who looked like a younger version of Spoiled Rich. There was also a table, build out of white wood, with a tea-set on it.

Zexis opened his mouth, but Spoiled spoke first. "Tin, please give me some tea. Black, with lemon.", she ordered and her butler nodded, took the kettle and poured her in. Spoiled sat down and Zexis did the same. He noticed that he got no tea. Again, a clear play by Spoiled to show him who was in charge.

The mare sipped from her tea-cup and looked at him with scrutiny. For a while nopony said anything.

Zexis leaned back, letting his eyes wander over the room. He noticed that she had a bookshelf. He couldn’t quite get a good view of it from where he sat, but he was pretty sure he could see a version of The Princess by Marechiavelli. There was also a cupboard, big enough so one could walk into it, and a king-sized bed. This in particular caught his eye. It told him that Spoiled did not sleep with her husband.

"How did you do it?", asked Spoiled finally, interrupting the silence.

"Come again?"

"How did you train that no-good tomcolt? Scootaloo. She seemed...transformed."

Zexis pondered that question. He needed to be careful here, what information he gave her. Too much and he would be giving away his secrets. Too little and she could lose her patience and surrender him to the authorities.

"I have a certain talent, when it comes to mares. I saw that Scootaloo was vulnerable and I took advantage of that. A few nice words, a bit of empathy, and soon I could control her completely. Instilling loyalty in her was easy, considering I was the only one who could satisfy her."

Spoiled raised an eyebrow. "Satisfy? What, she likes the pain?"

Zexis nodded. "She is masochist. A dirty little secret that she hid. I just gave her the opportunity to... indulge in it. That was all."

"That was all...", repeated Spoiled. Then she smirked in disgust. "Degenerate little miscreant. I knew that she wasn't right in her head."

Zexis grit his teeth. He didn't like how she referred to Scoots. Sure, she was a weird filly. But she was only seeking pleasure, and this bitch had no right to insult her for that. At least, not without Zexis’ approval.

"I don't believe you."

Zexis looked up in surprise. Spoiled’s eyes pierced his and her smirk was once more replaced by her cold, calculating look. "That tomcolt is many things, but she is not stupid. Otherwise, I would have managed to get rid of her and her meddling friends a long time ago. You used something else."

Zexis shook his head. "I swear to you, there was nothing else. I-I just...know how to push some buttons when it comes to mares. That´s all. Really!"

"Really? Yeah, right.” Sarcasm dripped from her voice. “Because you’re so smart, Mr. Chikelu. Smart enough to get caught with your pants down while fucking a filly in school!", Spoiled sneered. "You can't fool me. I know that you did something to Diamond. When I came to pick her up, she was quiet. Obedient. She hasn´t been like that for years. What did you do!?"

"Nothing! I’m just a simple teacher.", protested Zexis, now sweating.

Spoiled sighed and turned to Tin Soldier. "Call the guards. I’m done with this idiot."

Zexis jumped up, rocking the table and almost knocking over Spoilers cup, as he gesticulated wildly. "Wait! Wait!", he yelled in panic. "Fine! I admit it! I...drugged her!"

Spoiled smirked. She pursed her lips and whistled. Tin stopped at the door and returned to his old position, guarding his mistress. "I knew it. What did you use? How did you get it?"

Zexis sat down again, his head hanging in defeat. "It´s...an aphrodisiac. I made it myself.", he admitted.

The mare nodded, as if she had expected his admission. "That explains it. I take it that you used it on Cheerilee as well?"

When she saw Zexis nod, she laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"Oh, Mr. Chikelu. It's just...you stallions always try to rise above your station. Whether it be through money, marriage, or in your pathetic case, sex. And you still fail every time. Because you can never see beyond your own genitalia.", she explained smugly. "Unlike we mares. We are the rational gender. What you try to achieve with brute force, we acquire with wit. We can control our emotions. And that’s why we control you. Or in this case, I."

She pointed at the tea-cup which had nearly been knocked over in Zexis’ outburst. Tin stepped closer, wiping away the fluid that had sloshed out, and then filled up the cup. Spoiled picked it up delicately, and took a deep sip. "Hmm, I just love tea.", she mused.

"At any rate, it’s about time you realize who is in charge here. I own you, Mr. Chikelu. I can ruin your life with a snap of my finger.", she explained. Then she laughed loud. "Heck, I can ruin Scootaloo’s and Cheerilees life, while I am at it, given how they are involved."

Zexis just sighed and ran his hand over his face. "What do you want?", he asked.

Spoiled hiccuped and then giggled. "I want your loyalty. And your skills.", she answered.

"I want more to be just the wife of a successful business-stallion. I want to get higher, to Canterlot. And I want this town under my hoof. School, mayor, princess. All of them.", Her breath quickened, and he could see her rising excitement. "And you are going to help me with that." She gave him an evil grin.

So this is what it feels like, thought Zexis. To be used and manipulated. He couldn’t say it was a nice feeling. But he would manage. "And what do you have in mind...mistress?"

Spoiled leaned back and her grin got wider. "Hmmm, I like that. Address me from now on like that.", she said. "As for what I have in mind...well, given your abilities and this drug of yours...."

"I want you to deal with that pesky Applejack! Make her agree to sell her apples to a better price to my husband and stop being such a nuisance."

Zexis looked up in horror. "No! I can´t do that. She is an Element. Not to mention, I’m friends with her brother. You can’t ask me to betray his family!"

"Silence!", snapped Spoiled Rich and took another deep sip from her tea. "You know what? I’m gonna double down. I want you to break her! Fuck her, for all I care. That mare has been a thorn in my hoof long enough now, not to mention that her sister corrupted my Diamond. So, take care of her, or I will take care of you!"

Zexis shivered, but relented. He clenched his fists to stop them from shaking and lowered his head. "I-I...I will. Just, please. Don't screw me over.", he begged.

"Do your part and I won't.", said Spoiled. "I will give you two days to come up with a plan. After that you have a month to fulfill this task. Fail and you will suffer the consequences." She emptied the cup and let it fall on the table. "I’ve never felt so alive!", she murmured and smiled.

"Oh, and something else.”, she added. “You will leave my daughter alone. None of these supplementary lessons and the like."

"Why?"

"Why? Because she is my daughter, you simpleton.", spat the mare. "I need an heir for this family, even if she doesn't yet appreciate what I'm doing for her. Yes, she is frustrating and sometimes I think it would be better for me if I were to just start over again, but she is not a lost cause yet. I can still marry her off, after all."

She laughed. "I take it back. You do have a way with mares. You certainly got me in the mood for a talk."

Zexis couldn’t hide a smile at that, and avoided her eyes. "Is that all?"

Spoiled Rich giggled and waved her hand. "Yes, that is all. Tin Soldier here will keep you informed about my decisions and you will in turn refer to him if you want to contact me. Now, piss off." She snorted and now poured herself another cup of tea.

Zexis nodded and slowly stood up. Tin opened the door for him and led him down the hallway. Just before Zexis was out of earshot, he could hear Spoiled say. "That’s a good tea..."

Zexis walked down the street, whistling a tune. In his hand he flipped a small, white pill up. It was a hormone pill. One of the same kind he had slipped into Spoiled Riches tea, when he had rocked the table and faked his emotional outburst. After that, it was a simple matter of controlling the conversation and ensuring that Spoiled would let her guard down.

Thanks to that, he had not only gotten her support for corrupting Sweet Apple Acres. He also got a good view on the Riches family situation. A whipped husband, a power-hungry wife and a rebellious daughter.

Zexis closed his hand around the pill and smiled. "We can control our emotions, huh?", he mused and looked back at the mansion. "Funny, how that goes..."

Author's Note

And we got this one out.

Quite a busy month for me. Planned for this one to be finished earlier, but my back didn´t play so we got that delay. :pinkiesick:

And don´t think Spoiled is now dealt with. Oh no, there is a lot more to come with that mare. Zexis just manages to salvage the situation a bit, thats all.

The next chapter will be an Interlude. About time, we got another one. I figured this would be good time to do it, since some of you had been complaining about doing before boos-battles scewed the results of leveling.
So we do it now, which should maybe result in a more nuanced result. Or not, we will see.

This also means, as usual, but I repeat it for all new readers: DO NOT POST SUGGESTIONS!

They will be ignored by me, which will be a shame if they are good. Use the comments to instead ask personal questions at Eros. About history, the world or other things you are wondering. The Interlude serves as a mix of Q&A and worldbuilding, so use it to aquire information and give me chance to flesh out this world.

Other than that, I look forward to your comments and to writing the next chapter. :twilightsmile:

See you.

Fourth Interlude

Tartarus, Eros Sanctuary

The walls shook and small cracks appeared. Small debris fell from above, as the entire hall rocked again and again. Eros stood at the side of his cavern, near the hidden entrance that led to the upper levels . His hands were pressed against the stone and his muscles were tense to the utmost. His sharp teeth ground against each other, as he held the entrance closed.

"I told you already, Lilith! You can't come in! This is a private matter!", he hissed.

The walls shook again, as something heavy battered the outside. "I AM BOOOOORED!!!" The voice boomed through the stone, only slightly dampened. The high-pitched tone was gone an instead replaced by a monstrous bass.

"I know how you feel, but throwing a tantrum will not help. It will only get us attention from Cerberus. So stop behaving like a little child!" Eros horn sprung to life and his red aura began flow into the stone before him. Sharp and angry glowing runes appeared on the surface in a language long dead and forgotten. As he did so, the tremors began to weaken.

And angry roar pierced the cavern and made the god of corruption wince in pain. The attacks grew in frequency. "I WANNA PLAY! I WANNA PLAY! I WANNA PLAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!", whined Lilith.

The runes burned brighter under the increasing pressure. More cracks appeared. Fissures spread and rocks as big as melons fell from the ceiling. Purplish pink magic shone through the openings and lilac flames licked at Eros´hands. The hidden door groaned and with a sound like shattering glass the runes broke.

"I SAID NO!", bellowed Eros. His leathery wings flared, his fangs bared and his sharp horn lit up. A mighty red wave of pure magic surged from it and poured into the wall. A loud bang shook the room and a scream could be heard.

Then silence...

Eros stood there for several seconds, breathless. His fiery eyes shone with rage and his horn still spouted embers in anticipation of another attack. But nothing happened.

The god huffed in frustration and turned away from the door. Shaking his head in annoyance he made his way back to his throne. On one arm of the throne lay the glowing Corruptor. On its screen words appeared and began moving with frantic speed. Eros clicked his forked tongue. "Sorry for the delay. I needed to deal with a slight...disagreement.", he said, as he sat down.

Through all that excitement he had gotten a bit hard again. He put his giant prick to the side, so it wouldn't get in the way. Then he took the Corruptor in his hands. "I followed your progress. Not bad at all. Interesting how you dealt with this Zecora bitch.", he said, scrolling through the comments. "Don't beat yourself up over the fact that you couldn't corrupt her. One can never get them all. And besides, her breaking provided my avatar with some very useful advantages."

"Before you ask, I like to make a few things clear. It most unlikely that a mare once broken ever really recovers. I´m not speaking of the usual snapping of the mind after lots of stress. When I speak of breaking a mare, that means establishing a arcane link between me, Zexis and the victim."

He stroked his chin, trying to find a good way to explain it, without getting into the complicated nature of divine magic. "It is kinda like a parasitic relationship. Like the Changelings. Well no, not like the Changelings, but you get what I mean. In simple terms, Zexis sexual assault of mares can overload their brains. When that happens his connection to me, extends to them for the brief moment their mental defences are down. My influence then breaks down their mind and funnels their power into Zexis. It's an instinctual thing, so he has to want it in order for it to work, so accidents are unlikely to happen."

"That leaves the victim broken, unable to cope with the power of god they just experienced. Their magic is drained and the mind irreparably damaged. So, in short: Recovery is unlikely. So stop asking or trying to heal them. It's a wasted effort. They are a resource you used to provide Zexis with power and nothing more. If you´re worried about covering them up, well. Zecora's case you handled pretty well. And at the end of today, I might give you something that could help with future cases." Eros grinned wickedly.

"But enough of that. I assume you have questions."

The mist rolls back to reveal a large blue dragon with silvery chest scales and thighs, kneeling away from a throne of crystal, inside of a mountain.

“Eros, God of Corruption and Lust, I thank you for the blessings upon my kingdom, that I may be able to bring dragons back towards our true natures. I thank thee for the corruption of Tiger Agate and the wisdom you have given me. My faithful ally Fluorspar, tells me that the barrier to Tartarus is weakened for today. If that is so, please let me speak with thee to answer the question you have given me.”

Opening his eyes, the dragon’s amber eyes widen in glee. “Lord Eros, I am glad that I can communicate with you again. I must first thank you for the corruption of Tiger Agate, while she hasn’t let me claim her yet, but she is close. Fluorspar already sees her fucking her fellow dragonesses with glee. She tells me that, she will swear loyalty to me within the week. It will be great to see her become and ally.”

Getting on to his throne the Dragon Lord of the North speaks, “Now, you asked me last time, how I became the dragon Lord of the North.” The dragon snorts in amusement. “To be honest I never really planned on being the lord of the North. It was by extremely fortunate circumstances that I am here.”

“It all started in Raven’s pass, I just met Fluorspar, and she was able to confirm it to me that you, Eros, were real. I read little bit about you but it was always hushed. For her to actually show me that you existed, bound in Tartarus, but really existed. I was grateful to her, so I gave her a gift, the beauty she loves so much. I asked her how to free you. She said that the more creatures that accepted your ideals. The ideals of lust and corruption then the strong you would get and then you would be free. It was at that time a small idol in Fluorspar’s cave glowed.”

“It was a silly little replica of the ice heart bow, but it glowed. I asked Fluorspar what it meant, and she told me it was time for the choosing of the next Ice Dragon Lord. I took that glow as a sign. As the Ice Dragon Lord, I could be in contact with dragon’s through the north and possibly throughout Mundus. I told Fluorspar I would participate and would become the Ice Dragon Lord. Fluorspar agreed that becoming the lord would probably be the best.” The Northern Dragon Lord explains while pulling out a white and clear bow, that was shaped as two dragon wings combined with a dragon head were the two meet. As Fimbulwinter’s claw travels up and down its length the bow seems to cause a blue light.

The mist starts to roll in as the blue light grows strong until it pulls back, revealing a puzzled blue dragon.

“I’m sorry Eros, it appears that the bow was starting to weaken our connection sorry. Now, where were we? Before we got to the actual site for the trial, Fluorspar got a vision. It showed that without our intervention Permafrost would have become the Northern Dragon Lord. He would have solidified the teaching that Celestia gave to late Lord Tundra, Permafrost’s Grandma. I’m sorry, let me explain. I learned while I was in the Fang Monastery, that Queen Tundra was a big advocate for the Dragons of the North. She worked hard to make sure Celestia’s laws and customs were incorporated into our culture. Her son, and next King Lord Glacier, continued this during his reign. Fluorspar had a vision that if Permafrost became the Ice Dragon Lord he would reaffirm his family’s teachings and would make it much more difficult for me to bring dragons into your hoard.”

“That vision only gave me more resolve to become the Dragon Lord, but it didn’t make me reckless. Fluorspar gathered gems, while I designed one of my most favorite gems. The gem of Malathor. It took two days to make enough.” The blue dragon pulls out a a green, blue, and orange gem that seemed to be a combination of four pyramid shape gems. “It’s a very powerful sex crystal. It allows for a dragon to have multiple sessions of sex, without any recovery in-between, but all those recovery periods add up. So, let’s say after fucking five or seven times straight, you can’t move in the morning. I also made several Tarmakin’s Crystals, “Fimbulwinter grabs and orange rectangle crystal from besides his throne, its glow tinting the air orange. “which naturally elevate one’s lust. I also added into both some geo crystals. This will double the crystals output but they breakdown within 36 hours. Anyway, past my gemcrafting.”

“Fluorsar and I arrived at the trial grounds the day before the Trial of the Ice heart bow. The Trial of the Ice Heart Bow is like the Fire Dragons Lord’s trial with the Blood Scepter. The only difference is that the bow moves of its own accord into the mountains so now even the previous Dragon Lord doesn’t know where it goes or what challenges the contestants will have.”

“Now the days before the trail, while it wasn’t smiled upon, it wan’t uncommon for dragons to fuck to let of some steam. That was where our opportunity lied. Fluorspar and I placed both gems in spots where lots of dragons would meet up. Then I crafted two of the gems into a necklace and placed it around fluorspar. Finally, I used my Fleshcraft and gave Fluorspar a gift. Her pheromone output is about ten or more times stronger than any dragoness. Combined with an accident she can control what pheromones she can produce and the effect desired. The one she uses the most is for sexual appeal and lust, but she also has ones for appearing trustworthy, and even one for danger.”

“Fluorspar went to the gathering spot where Permafrost was at. He was the favorite to win, so plenty of dragoness were flirting with him, but none were having sex, due to his father ideals. All it took was Fluorspar to come by, talk to him a little, and he was on her like ice snow on the mountain tops. According to her, he fucked her for eight or more hours straight. I on the other hand was tired because of the fleshcraft so I was asleep by the time everydragon was fucking. I did wake up twice to see origes and humping piles. It was a good thing I was so tired, because if not I would have dived right in.”

“So, the next day came and everydragon was sore. The only time they didn’t show signs of fatigue was when Lord Glacier came and started the trail, but I think he knew something was off due to the way almost everydragon was walking afterward. It was a good thing to. I’m not the fastest dragon. In-fact Obsidian actually told me I’m one of the slowest, but because all the other contestants were fatigue I was actually in the lead part of the dragon. Where I did, shine was strength. I was able to collapse several tunnels, stop boulders, even pin three other dragons, and threw them down a cliff.”

“I still almost lost though. Permafrost knew that mountain range like the back of his hand. In the last five minutes it was a sprint between us. He got a head and went down the shorter path and collapsed it, so I was forced to take the longer one. I took a gamble and used my control over crystal to have them grow into a wall of gems. It was the last think I had energy for, I nearly collapsed, but it payed off. I still remember Permafrost’s face when I gabbed that bow before him. The look of unbelief that he lost. I wish I could show it to you Eros.”

“I learned later that a lot of my success that day was due to actions of Permafrost. You see that dragon, while receiving some of the best training for all things physical, magical, and mental he still wasn’t certain he was going to win. It seems like he had the guards run countless laps the days before the trail to make sure none of the guards, including Captain Obsidian would participate. In fact I think he even tried to poison Obsidian so he couldn’t compete. There were also some scrolls, where I found threats and orders to detain some of the strongest competitors. I guess I may even need to thank Permafrost for the throne, if he still wasn’t a pain.” The Dragons Lord’s eyes narrowed in furry.

“Since that day, he tried to blame his sabotages on me, and tried to cause a rebellion. Currently he is captured, but several of the lords of this land want him to be the Dragon Lord, and while they haven’t called for open rebellion yet, I have found signs of a silent rebellion. Tiger Agate is proof of that. Eros I have tried to corrupt Permafrost, but ever since the day he lost the trail his mind has been closed. Sure, Fluorspar may have caused him to spill his plans, but I can’t get into his mind. He even is resisting the crystal’s powers, because he knows they come from me. He saw how the crystals trapped him, he knows that they are under my control and so he resists them. I am at a lost.” The Dragon Lord’s head sinks as he admits his defeat.

“Is there anything you recommend for me to corrupt him? Should I keep him imprisoned and hope his will breaks? Should I try to almost bury him in Tamarkin Crystals? Should I show him of what I did to his father and hope that that breaks his mind and will. Or should I just risk an all-out rebellion and kill him? I am at a lost Eros. Please if you have any advice for your servant, show me how to bend that…. That…. LIZARD to your will, and have him stop being a thorn in my side. Have you ever dealt with a problem like this? How did you work around it?”

The mist rolls in as the Ice Dragon Lord’s eyes seem lost in memories

Eros´smile grew, as he read and at the end he clapped his hands in applause. "I am impressed, Fimbulwinter. You´re more capable than I expected. The Ice Dragons had always been a thorn in my side during my times on the surface. Stuck up pricks always blabbering about honour and such. And still, you managed to prevail and succeed. I couldn't wish for a better serv-I mean, ally."

He then pondered the dragon lords questions. "Granted your troubles aren't over yet. Consolidating your gains and extending your control over the kingdom should remain your priority. As for Permafrost, keep him contained. He is helpless in his current state. Corrupting him will yield no benefit beyond the cost, so don't waste your resources. Keep him alive and imprisoned. Get the other lords under your influence and let time do the work for you. Believe me, in a couple of years nobody will care about him anymore. He will rot away, lonely and forgotten. A fitting fate, I believe." He chuckled.

Looking at the corruptor, he began to use it to scry on events that interested him. As he saw Garble and his negotiation with Fimbulwinter, the grin of the God of Corruption grew. His sharp nail scratched over the surface of his throne and he tapped his foot in silent delight.

"One thing, Fimbulwinter. That dragon, the ambassador. He is ripe. I can almost smell his corruption. Figuratively speaking, of course.", he said and tipped on the frozen frame of Garble´s arrogant face. "Corrupt him. His will is weak and his loyalty to this Ember bitch questionable. He will serve as a useful piece should the need arise."

"Just imagine, what a dragon following my teachings could achieve. You have risen to Lord of the Frost Dragons. This Garble is perfect for attempting the same with the Fire Dragons. And even if he fails, his actions will sow enough chaos that you can take advantage of it. Just imagine that Ember kneeling before you, as she pleads for your assistance. Imagine what you could demand from her. Her juicy tits jiggling as she quivers before your might. Her ass presenting itself for your-"

"So, that's what you've been up to!"

Eros jumped out of his throne.

Behind him Lilith hovered in the air with a curious and amused smile on her lips. Her form, at first glance, appeared to be that of a young alicorn mare, though Eros knew her true nature. One could almost mistake her for a filly, with her thin body and expressive hips that were accentuated by a small waist and flat stomach. Her breasts were a small B-Cup with perky nipples. Her small, lithe form was a pale shade of red, running to pink in some places. Tiny bat-wings flapped lazily, holding her aloft. Her long pink mane, with purplish streaks billowed as if blown by a non-existent breeze.

"Hi, Erri!", she chirped.

"How, in all the six hells, did you get inside!?", asked Eros incredulously. Then he frowned. "And I remember asking you specifically not to call me by that name."

"Too bad, you´re not my boss anymore. So i can call you whatever I want. How about Elly? Or Rory? Oooh, how about Eleanor?", mused the filly, as she flew around, inspecting everything. All the while babbling like a river. "You still suck at interior decorating. I mean, like, is it so difficult to hang up some paintings? Or books! Where are the books? Seriously, this looks more like a retirement home for the elderly, complete with booze! Nice carving, though."

Eros closed his eyes and touched his forehead in barely contained frustration. "Lilith...", he said again, "How...the fuck...did you get inside?"

The mare stopped short of grabbing the boobs of the depiction of the raped Celestia and turned around. "The door was open.", she stated, like it was obvious and pointed to the back.

Eros turned around. His secret entrance, the door he had sealed off and kept hidden for almost seven hundred years. Carved out of the hardest stone in Tartarus and protected by his indomitable will. It laid shattered on the ground, pulverized to pebbles. His jaw fell open. "But...how...I mean....”, he stammered.

Then he looked at Lilith's big, wide and overly innocent smile. He threw his hands into the air and sighed. "Fuck it! Cat is out of the bag, anyway."

Lilith's eyes went wide. "So, does that mean I can stay? You’re gonna involve me in things? I can actually entertain myself again? YOU WILL FUCK MY BRAINS OUT WITH A HUGE COCK!?"

"Yes. Yes. Maybe. And, fuck no!", answered Eros and sat down on his throne again.

"Oooh, come on. I´m dying here of boredom. I need something to take the edge off.", whined the filly and flew closer. She sat down on the tip of the throne, dangling her naked feet over Eros´ head.

The god shook his head again. "Lilith, you know just as well as I do, that we cannot take the edge off. Even if I was stupid enough to fuck you, neither you nor me would ever get to climax. We would instead stew in our own lust, until we lose our mind out of frustration or find a way to calm down again." He then grabbed her with his aura and slowly levitated her on his lap.

The filly pouted, but didn´t protest. Instead she tried to grind on Eros´ half-erect cock, until the god growled in anger. She then stopped immediately and looked around bored. Then her yellow eyes found the Corruptor. "Oooh, what is that? A new toy?", she asked and grabbed it.

Then she saw the messages, as they blinked up. For a few minutes she read silently, before smiling. "Oh right, introduction time! I am Lilith, former right hand of old grouchy over there. Lesser Goddess of Debauchery and daughter of-"

"Thats enough!", interrupted her Eros and snatched the device away from her. "If you really want to stay, you going to behave. Understood?"

The little goddess pouted, then sighed. "Ugh, fine. Party Pooper...."

"Anyway...", said Eros loud and brought attention back to him. "Let's get on with the questions."

*Entering incognito mode*

I knew that Spoiled Rich would act that way! Wooo! Praise Kek for autism!

Anyway... Lord Eros! It's a honor to work for you even if my loyalty in the end is to Lord Kek. But that makes me curious... Do you know Lord Kek? Do you know of him or have you even met him?! I only know him by his godly touch and through his messenger Pepe. Also, something I have been thinking about, what will happen to the avatar when his mission is completed? Will he remain or will he... Not? And if he remains, what will he be?

"Who is Kek? Does he have a big penis?", asked Lilith.

"I don't know and I don't care.", said Eros annoyed. "The drifters come from all sorts of places. Some are from here. Most of them come from other dimensions and worlds only connected through the Corruptor. I know just as much about them, as you do."

Lilith pouted again, but then read the actual question. "And what is this avatar?"

Eros remained silent for a few seconds. Lilith kept looking at him with her big round eyes. Her pleading look was only slightly marred by her slitted pupils and the well-hidden sadistic glimmer behind them. Eventually the stallion caved. "He is my way out. I created him in order to funnel power from outside to me in here. When he creates enough corruption, I will be able to break out.", he explained.

Lilith's eyes went even bigger and her cute mouth flapped open in awe. "Oh oh oooooh, so that's why you got buffer! I even wondered, if you started to work out. Course not, lazy as you are! But that's great! Can I come with you? Can I? Can I?"

Eros looked at her. Appraising her. He seemed unsure. "Only under one condition."

"What is it? You wanna knock me up? Use me as puplic cumdump for the next century? Saw off my horn, pluck my wing and collar me like cattle?", asked Lilith with increasing desperation. She threw herself before Eros feet and groveled with her cute ass raised. "I do anything to get out of here!"

"Sawing off--no! Gods, no! Just be my servant again.", said Eros and rolled his eyes at her over-the-top performance.

The goddess looked up. She seemed a bit disappointed. "You're no fun, you know that?"

Eros snorted. "Why would I reward you for your betrayal? And besides, I have no reason to strengthen your domain. You can do that yourself. I just want my little cocksock back. The one that threw the ponies of Las Pegasus into a frenzied orgy, where their duke then proceeded to rape and impregnate his own daughters. That is the Lilith I want to see. Not the half-mad parody that you are now."

Lilith stood up again and propped her hands against her hips. "I want to remind you, that you were the one who got himself banished to Tartarus without so much as a goodbye. What was I supposed to do? Duel Celestia? I'm crazy, but not stupid.", she said, sounding much more mature and rational than before.

She looked around the cavern, inspecting the relief of Celestia's and Luna's gangbang; the throne with their broken and submissive frames. She muttered something unintelligible and looked at Eros. "Fine. I´ll do it. But I´m gonna do my own stuff, too. No taking away my toys and no more lectures. You´re not my real dad, anyway.", she said and crossed her thin arms in a gesture that was supposed to look intimidating, but with her tiny frame just came over as cute.

Eros just rolled his eyes, but nodded. "Sure, why not. As long as you do as I tell you. And besides, we´re not out yet."

"You're gonna answer the question, Erri?", asked Lilith and pointed at screen.

Eros threw a warning glance, but took up the Corruptor again, while the divine filly hovered over his shoulder. "Back on topic. Honesty, if Zexis fulfills his purpose I will use him again. He is a useful tool and by the time of his success he will be quite powerful as well. I was never someone to discard a servant - shut up, Lilith - and I will not start with him."

He scratched his chin. "I will probably reward him. Mares, riches, whatever he wants. Within reason, of course. But once I rule over Equestria, he will be one of my most trusted servants."

"Hey, what about me!?", protested Lilith and pouted again.

"Trusted I said. I don´t trust you as far as I can throw you, Lilith."

"Aww, shucks. Thank you, boss!" Lilith giggled and blushed comically.

Eros just rolled his eyes at her antics and moved on.

Will leave it to idiots who think their all for the female race, to screw up and get themselves boned. Can't say am sad or disappointed by it, she's a monster in a far worse way than anyone else ever could be. though underestimating her would be a mistake.

I have a few questions I just have to ask, though you have no obligation to answer!
First and foremost, have you had a good day?

Eros pointed at Lilith. "I think, that answers that question."

"Hey!"

So far you got versed in a number of our dear elements of harmony, what do you think of the ones you've managed to see thus far, any favorites?

"Hm, difficult. We only really met Applejack and Twilight Sparkle. Though, I had taken the time to inform myself about the others..." He held up the same old newspaper he had used before, though it´s cover had now changed to depict all of the Mane Six. "And I must say they are some lovely mares. Prude and infuriatingly virtuous, but not without merit. I would say this Twilight Sparkle intrigues me the most. Smart, yet very naive. Good looks, too. She will make a fine bride, once I conquer Equestria again."

"I like the pink one!"

"Of course you do..."

Out of curiosity out of all our 'heroes' from From Twilight and company to Shining armor and Princess Cadence, which do you think is the most damaging to our goals? passively and if they found out aggressively.

Eros scratched his chin at that question. "Difficult to say. I doubt that the new Crystal Empress could be much of a threat currently. She has to run her own realm. Real shame, by the way. To see what Sombras kingdom has become...my heart bleeds."

His hand patted Celestia's broken face on the side of his throne. "Celestia will probably be the most dangerous. She already has a tight grip on public morale. If she ever finds out something is going in Ponyville there is no doubt she will react. Though, as I know her, she will probably first try to be subtle about it. She never liked intervening directly, unless she had to."

Your agent and our dear friend seems to have gotten smitten by dear Princess Twilight, any thoughts of that?

At that question Eros growled and even Liliths expression took on a disapproving expression. "He should get that out of his head as quickly as possible. It will impede his judgement and even worse, it will make him weak. Love is something for the fools and idiots. A true stallion or mare shouldn't care about his or her mates feelings. They should just take what they want."

"Zexis needs to stop that nonsense. If you fail at that, I will do it myself if I need to. There is no way I will let this deteriorate into namsy-pansy love story."

Do you know and know the difference between Intelligence and wisdom?

Oh oh! Can I answer that? Pleeeeease!", asked Lilith, hopping up and down in the air with her arm raised, as if she was in school.

Eros just waved his hand. "Fine. Go ahead."

The goddess grinned and hovered in front of the screen. "Intelligence is being smart. Wisdom is about being wise."

...

"Is...is that all?", asked Eros.

Lilith looked at him, like he was stupid. "What? Too difficult?", she said, before sighing, as if she was talking to a six-year old. "One can be smart, but still do stupid things. One can be wise, without ever reading a book. Intelligence is the potential of one's mind. Wisdom is about what you do with it. Simple!"

Eros just blinked and then shook his head. "There you go. Next question, please."

Have you ever (,had forgive me for using such a strong word for this pathetic creature) an opponent like 'Spoiled Rich' that wasn't Celestia or Luna?

Eros thought for a moment. "What about that wizard? You know, with the beard?", asked Lilith.

"Never met him. He was gone before I fucked up his student. She never told me where he went.", answered Eros and tapped with one finger on his throne. Then he got it. "Well, there was this shaman in Zebrica. Anansi, he called himself. When I corrupted Zebrica he was the one who tried to organise the resistance. When he failed at that, he took his tribe and fled. He was a rather tricky fellow. My demons tried to catch him multiple times and he managed to fool them every time. He even evaded me once."

"Oh yeah, that guy!", said Lilith and frowned. "That was before my time, though. What happened to him?"

Eros shrugged his shoulders. "He got away. I saw no use in pursuing him, once he left my domain. He never challenged my rule again and instead founded a new realm away from Zebrica. Somewhere in the west of the continent. Zhana, I think it was called. No clue if it still exists."

Did you ever find out how ponies can such uncannily accurate names?

"I have no idea, what you mean...", said both Eros and Lilith in unison.

Last one, Do you think yo- no WE will win, we fight for similar if not the out-right same goal. back to it at hand, do you think we will win?
Farewell, and I hope my questions greet you well.
Gentle breeze guide you path, a warm smile welcome you home.

"Undoubtedly.", said Eros confident. "Celestia has grown complacent over the millenia. And the current progress indicates a good chance of this succeeding. Just keep low, until Zexis is strong enough and has enough influence. If everything goes right, I should acquire enough power to break out of Tartarus and subjugate Equestria."

"And I will help!", chirped Lilith proudly.

Eros grumbled, but nodded. "Next one, please."

The ground begins to quiver as a slag of some type of black rock shoots forth from the ground. The molten stone began to eat away any light that touched it. Whispers soon sprouted from the rock that resembled moans and static combined together. Suddenly, the pitch black slag's surface pooled into a mirror-like shape. The whispers grew as an image came into focus upon the mirror.

"Well, well, well lookie at what we got here," said a voice that cut through in a taunting tone. "I finally catch up and you reward me with a Q&A right off the bat. How utterly kind of you... It makes me sick."

The fuzzy image sharpened and there sat a giant odd looking kitsune. The beast was slim and even its whitish gray coat could not hide its bones. The wolf's eyes were pools of ever-moving scarlet and lustful pink, caught in a captivating battle.

"Well, I suppose it can't be helped. No matter how much I'd enjoy whispering of hunger and lust into Zexis' ear, I shall not do so. Instead I am here to gain knowledge of the quaint little world we wish to possess. After all, what good is prey if you don't know the juiciest parts?

"I wish to know the political situation amongst the ponies. Who is in power? Do any companies influence the lives of these ponies? Are there groups who disagree with the purity laws?

"I have some tangent questions to ask you. What happened to the diamond dogs? How was Ponyville founded? Where does The Will come from? What's your take on homosexuality? Do you have any friends? How much does a lust demon cum? Have you ever taken it up the bu-..."

The fox breaks off and the static gets louder. The kitsune shakes its head and starts to growl and moan.

"Mmm... I grow hungry for pleasures and I must feed. May you set us both free from purity and quench our hunger, Eros..."

The slag melts away.

The god sat for a few seconds silent on his throne. His expression was blank and collected, but one could see by his clenched fist that he was tense. Even Lilith had stopped bouncing around, being uncharacteristically serious. You...you connected to them, too? Sure, we are desperate, but isn't that...dangerous?"

Eros didn't answer immediately, instead thinking a bit, before levitating a flask from his cupboard and taking a big sip from it. His mouth quirked into a satisfied expression at the taste and he concentrated on the screen again. "We need all the allies we can get. I can work with the Yokai, if I need to. And he has some interesting questions. Or she. Or it. You never know with them."

He cleared his throat. "I’ve no clue, who is currently directing Equestria beside Celestia. I have only limited access to information and most of them come from Zexis. So, if you want to find out, you got to direct him to do it. Though, back in my day nobles were the most important class. Whether it were the hereditary dukes of the unicorns or the elected mayors of the earth ponies or the trained commanders of the pegasus."

"Granted, Celestia will have probably curbed their power. But I´m pretty sure some influential families remain. Maybe some new ones came to power as well. As far as I know..." He held up the paper again. "Princess Twilight Sparkle comes from a noble family, as well. A lesser house, but it's old blood and that is pretty important for unicorns."

"As for the diamond dogs, that is actually a simple question with a complicated answer. Without getting into too much detail, the dogs are usually divided by different clans. Where ponies separate by things like wings or horn or lack thereof, dogs are usually very similar in body-type. At least, they were in the beginning. At some point they split their society into different groups. Clans, as they call them."

"These clans all follow one particular trait and profession. The Stone Dogs include masons and builders. The Wood Clan are hunters and such. The Iron Clan have the most warriors and smiths. Over time more clans got founded, as new resources and professions were discovered. The Gold Clan developed as the first banks popped up. The Steel Clan was founded, when the dogs discovered the miraculous Blacksteel. And so on."

"These clans work out the hierarchy between them. It is a fluent system that adapts with the times. At the beginning the Wood Clan was the most powerful one, when the world was still young and untamed. Then the Iron Clan rose to power at the age of war. Every dog nation decides for itself which clans are the most important and it reflects their traits and politics to the rest of the world. The dogs of Teutschland are currently ruled by the Blood Clan and the Iron Clan. The twin-monarchy of Pawstria and Hungery favors the Steel Clan and the Gold Clan."

"The Diamond Dogs, however, they are the best example of a fallen clan. They already were at my times. At the beginning they were called the Dirt Clan, which they changed of course early on into Diamond. In the old days they were the rulers of the dogs and one of most important clans, due to the fact that they constructed the underground kingdoms and possessed huge wealth."

"When the dogs moved to the surface however after a series of devastating earthquakes, the Diamond Clan lost its relevance. Stone and Iron became more powerful and Gold grew richer. The Diamonds saw themselves growing weaker and weaker. Eventually they revolted, trying to retain their influence and kill off the other clans."

"To cut a long story short, they lost. The survivors were kicked out and their clan stripped of their place in dog society. They came to Equestria as refugees and have since tried to find a way of living here. They usually stay below ground, groveling in the dirt and dreaming of past glories. They are few in numbers and times will probably not have changed that. A pitiful lot."

Eros shrugged his shoulders at that. Uninteresting for him, as they held little power. His eyes went over the questions again. "Ponyville was founded early on during my reign. It grew from Chancellors Puddinghead holding Earth and first served as a haven for those that fled Canterlot, when I took it. When my army attacked it, Puddinghead surrendered immediately. First to spare his citizens, but later on, because he wanted to get a part of the cake that was my rule. It then grew into a thriving town thanks to its slave-market and training facilities that broke stubborn mares and other slaves. Celestia did away with all of that, of course."

"I've no idea where the Will comes from. It mostly is a form of freak magic, that gained sentience from the energy that fills this forest. Kinda like a spirit, just much, much stronger. I think it could even be described as some form of pseudo-deity, though I´m not sure. Treat it with caution."

"Let me handle the next ones!", said Lilith suddenly and yanked the Corruptor away from Eros, who grumbled but let haver her way.

"Erri isn't a big fan of homos, but doesn't stop them if they work for him. I like it a lot, especially if others see it as evil or disgusting. That let´s it fall into my domain and makes me stronger. Less so, if others have no problem with it. Then it can go fuck my ass, for all I care. Not that they would do it, anyway."

"He doesn't have any friends, because he is freakish loner and a neeeeerd. Just kidding! Friendship is stupid and we don't need it!"

"Not quite true. It is a useful tool and I won't discourage anyone who sympathizes with me. I appreciate the deeds of loyal servants and allies."

"Whatever! Next one! Lust demons cum a lot. Like a ton. Literally. Incubi can produce as much jizz as they want and they loooove creampies and inflations and impregnations. In the old days I had a couple whose only duty it was to fill my bathtub. Sooo relaxing..."

Eros. What a pleasure to have you grace us with another audience.

It's been a while. As you can see, our puppet is very active, if needlessly reckless at times. Against our wishes, in fact. But then, I suppose you need to burn yourself at least once before you understand not to touch a fire directly.

Anyway. I would like to hear more about your past now. Specifically, your influence on Mundus outside Equestria. We know you had little directly to do with the Changelings (by the way, many seem to have grown sentience while you were locked away) or with the Griffons, and Zebrica is one of your greatest successes, but what about other nations? Other peoples?

When you corrupted the Founders, all manner of species came to trade in mare meat. Celestia hardly had a chance to erase knowledge of you and your teachings from all of them. The Yaks have been fiercely isolationist after you were toppled. Perhaps they remember more of you than the ponies do? And dragons are ancient creatures. You have a powerful disciple in Lord Fimbulwinter even. How many elder dragons remember the desire to subjugate their females? Sell them for a handsome profit perhaps? There's many more, such as the kelpie, from which I drew my three little darlings, and the Diamond Dogs, whose females we haven't even seen yet. Could be they keep them locked away underground, used for pleasure and breeding? They were rather eager to enslave a good-looking mare like Rarity, never mind spanking her to get her to work...

What say you? What peoples felt your... touch, so to speak?

Lilith scratched her cute head at this one and her mane waved again in a non-existent breeze. "I never saw much more than Equestria and the New World. Apart from the Badlands to the west, they are the Yaks in the north-east, the Crystal Ponies in the north and the Ice Dragons in the north-west. Then we have the Fire Dragons to south-west and a lot of nothing further south. Maybe something new has sprung up while we were gone, but fuck me if I know. Who wants to live in a jungle anyway?"

"They were civilizations there back in the day, like Zzaztek. Snakelings, a sub-brood from Changelings who mingled too closely with the local fauna. Blood rituals and a deep interest in the sun. But not really relevant for me, because they didn't leave their jungles. Maybe they are still around, though I doubt it. Their reproduction was difficult and required constant sacrifices and as far as I know Celestia, she wouldn't have allowed that. The fact that they probably worshipped demons wouldn't have helped."

"Then there is the Old World with Prance, Alba, Teutschland, Celpica, Eru, Pawstria and Hungery and so forth. Dozens of independent nations who spend most of their time warring with one another. Then there are the moose of Uppsala to the north and the reindeer, also known as caribou, the north-west in Kaleva. Further to the west are a lot of steppes and dry land and then we get the Empire of Quin, ruled by the deer. Off the coast then lies Nippon and its kirin."

Eros sighed. "The world is big, and I never got to see all of it. There is much more, like the Maharadja of the elephant kingdoms or Saddle Arabia or Zirrbabwe. If you want to know more, you will have to be more specific. Maybe I will try to establish a better connection for just that. I will see what I can do...", he said playing with the Corruptors interface.

"As for the Yakkies, they are weeeeird. Like, seriously. Good for a fuck and almost as big as minotaurs, but so ruude and stuck up. They were always happy to get some slaves or wifes, as they always said, but they never went beyond that. Always back to their stupid fortress in their stupid mountains and that was it! Much better relationship with Crystal Ponies, though."

"In general, you underestimate Celestia's persistence. She had one-thousand years to wipe all traces of my existence from the face of Mundus and she was meticulous. I doubt any mortal races even remember my name, apart from zebras. And the dragons are probably glad that they don´t talk about me. Not a proud part of their history, if they are concerned. Those who live through my time are rare as one thousand years is a very long time even for a dragon. Probably only the elders know who I am and as you can in Fimbulwinter´s case, they don't talk about me."

Eros propped himself up in his throne and threw his legs over to the side as he mused on the subject. "Granted, Celestia's influence in the more obscure nations shouldn't be strong, but neither was mine. The kelpies are a comparatively young race and they have other problems, like Leviathan for example. The Dogs actually place a big importance on their bitches - their name for their females, not an insult - and treat them with a lot of respect. And they must, after all. Every bitch bears four to six pups and they usually have the last say which dog they will breed with. Maybe the Diamond Dogs deteriorated in that regard, given their fall from grace, but that must have happened after my time."

"The races that were most influenced by me were the zebras and the ponies. And the latter mostly in the New World. I was planning on extending my influence to the Old World, but well...." Eros fell silent, as he remembered and he clenched his fist. He shook his head.

"Enough question time. I want to move on.", he said, despite Liliths childish protest. His hand wiped over the screen and called up the map of Equestria again.

"I´ve grown in strength since last time and the Corruptor has unlocked a new ability.", he explained and touched the screen. The map changed, now separating into multiple regions. Ponyville was in the center with a purple cloud inside of it, spreading its tendrils over the region.

"You can spend Corruption Points to influence entire regions. This will most of time only affect the common populace and the weak-willed. Strong personalities and so-called heroes will be unaffected, but that's not the point. With this you can accelerate the overall corruption of Equestria. My influence will creep into the heads of the ponies and slowly change them. It will provide you with a steady income of Corruption Points, depending how much you corrupt the regions. It took this long, because I had to make sure it stays undetected. But now I am confident. With this you will be able to turn entire masses into lust-filled studs and sluts."

He then pointed at Canterlot. "Do me a favor and do not mess with this region. It would probably tip Celestia off and that would be bad for all of us. You can, of course, still do it, but only if you must or you are sure that she is occupied with something else."

He then tipped on the screen again and multiple live-feeds appeared, showing the day-to-day life of the ponies. "This will show up every now and then, to show you the difference of your actions. See it as reward and as motivation, when you turn those boring hamlets and towns into dens of corruption and lust."

"Oh oh! Can I help? I have an idea!", said Lilith and took the Corruptor again, without waiting for an answer.

"I will serve a liaison between you and Erri! Unlike him, I haven't wasted my magic that I accumulated over a eight-hundred years on a floating disk! I can talk with you, answer questions and show you the result of your wonderful and debaucherous decisions. It will just like a sleep-over! You know, with pillows and rumors and getting stuffed by huge cocks until they come out of your mou--"

"Yeah, wonderful idea! Now give that back!", snarled Eros and snatched the screen away from the giggling mare. He huffed in frustration, but looked down on the device again.

"Anyway, that's how it will go. Keep in mind that Lilith is a bit of an airhead, or at least pretends to be one. So, don't expect too much from her. These session of ours will still be the only way you can ask the big questions and strengthen Zexis. Speaking of..."

He tipped on the screen again and Zexis’ profile appeared. "Go ahead. Make sure he gets all he needs and prepare to take on the Rich bitch. If you play your cards right, you can put her and Applejack in their place. Two flies, one stone. Do not disappoint me."

With that the connection grew weaker and the last that could be seen was Lilith waving a goodbye, before flashing her tight, juicy pussy with a wink followed by an exasperated Eros.

Author's Note

And finally, we have a new chapter for the new year!

I hope you all had some nice holidays or at least a good, fresh start. :twilightsmile:

I, for myself, had to battle with a crazy family, my body who still decides to break down here and then and a lot of chocolate (not good for my digestion, but oh so sweet...)

Anyway, on to the chapter. Procedure as always, vote for options you like. With one new addition. The regions you can now corrupt. They will be always open. So, if you gain CP, you can decide to spend them on the regions immediately. It does require a vote of at least FIVE other commentators for me to iniate it though and I do count votes AGAINST it, so we don´t have trolls wasting points or the like.

But why should you vote for regions, anyway? Well, as Eros explained, they will give you CP before an Interlude. This will be only a little bit at the beginning, but the more your corrupt them, the more CPs you´re eventually getting. Investing is important.

You will also getting some new sex-scenes, that will be unlocked at a certain Corruption count, so if you want some "action" or see what happens to side-characters in their corrupted regions, this is the way to do it. Wonder what happens to Coco Pommel in Manehattan, when the Counter reaches seven? Spend points and find out!

Ponyville in general can be fully corrupted and it will have little effect on the story. Well, it will have an effect, but don´t expect targets and main characters to suddenly cave or slut up. This option only affects unnamed background ponies or characters without too much impact. A balance, so to speak.

And keep in mind, that ponies still act on their own instincts. A fully corrupted Manehattan may decide to elect a corrupt mayor who legalizes drugs and opens whorehouses. Or a kingpin rises in the city and begin to create a criminal empire of sexual trafficing, etc.

Spend points and find out what hides behind all these regions. I promise, you won´t be dissapointed. :raritywink:

As for Lilith...well, let´s just say she meant what she said. She will answer small questions about Mundus and Eros and engage some of you, if she finds you interesting. She will more or less serve as my OC in the comments. You can still contact me, of course.

She will also occasionally pop up in the story proper, though I won´t spoil. :pinkiehappy:

Also, Longma-Irons. I can´t answer your messages for some reason, so I do it through this. Could it be that you blocked me? Either way, look if you did or ask the mods. Sorry for the trouble.

Other than that, I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I eagerly await your comments.
