Shadow Rift's career is important to him, and for a short time, becomes his life. But when a beautiful mare enters the picture, Shadow's world changes.

An up and coming stunt colt, Shadow Rift has been working for the past year to build his reputation up and become one of Equestria's most well known celebrities. For the past year, and almost most of his life, Shadow Rift's entire career becomes his life, and he becomes more determined than ever to achieve the expectations his parents and all of Equestria, and go down as one of the greatest stunt colts of all time.

Things, however, start to change when a young and beautiful mare enters his life, seeking his love and trying to show him there is more to life than his dangerous career, while also trying to be as supportive as possible of the young athlete and his possibly life threatening lifestyle.

Despite all of this, both the mare and Shadow have demons out for both of them. Demons in their past that will stop at nothing to ensure that both of them are left broken and reminded of their deeds and sins. Will they be able to achieve the life they both want for one another? Or will the past come back to finish the job it had started long ago? Will it be their Daybreak?

Or Nightfall?

Contains: First time sex, sock and collar uniform, mild fetish, (more to come)

I had originally made this story as a means of getting away from my life at the time, which, in all fairness, wasn't doing so great. I decided to reboot it because the previous installment had nothing I liked about it, and nothing that I personally felt comfortable with.

This go around, I plan on making an actual story that is more than what I originally made. Hopefully, this story will also be my Daybreak.

(Also, quick side note, yes, the Aryanne in this story isn't technically a Nazi. It'll be explained over a period of time, but for now, just know that I will not have a "Nazi Aryanne".)

I'd like to thank Miss Thresha8 for her amazing art work here. It's the closest I've gotten so far to what it's originally based on.

And I'd like to thank those of you who are willing to read this story, and even more those of you who support my idea of rebooting it. I didn't do it out of selfishness, but rather to give you all what you wanted and what I wanted to see of it.

EDIT: New Cover Art by Mister FoughtDragon! Much appreciation to him for this phenomenal piece of beauty!

Chapter 1: Posters

As the night began to steadily approach, the sun set creating its vibrant colors of orange, red, and yellow, it brought on the all too familiar cool air of night, calming and relieving Shadow as he continued on through the streets of Ponyville, while chilling other ponies to the bone.

Flying at this time of day would've been a thought he'd enjoy, soaring along the heavens and feeling the cool air brush against his body and through his mane. A smile crept against his face as he thought of that, just flying up there against the sherbet of different colors. Flying, for him was more than a sport or an activity to be taken advantage of. It was an escape. An escape from reality where nothing really mattered, there were no ponies to push him along his path, to become the stallion that everypony knew and hoped he would become some day.

An escape from all the expectation, all the stress, all of his built up anger. Nothing mattered up there... It was a safe haven.

The more Shadow thought of this, the more he felt his wings flapping, wanting desperately to get him off the ground. He would've agreed with them, and allowed himself to take flight, but the aching feeling in his body and the, quite frankly, painful movement of his wings, were enough to have him remember that he wasn't in any condition to do any flying. At least, for the remainder of today.

This pain wasn't anything new to Shadow, as he had started to become accustomed to it, he had begun to wish he never did. It wasn't so much the pain that got to him, though it was a big factor in his exhaustion towards it, but more or less the feeling afterwards. Pain leads to exhaustion, exhaustion leads to not being able to do what he loves. Not being able to do what he loves meant no more shows, and there was no way in Tartarus he was going to give those up. The shows were fun, regardless as to how many ponies would show up, generally anywhere from 80 to 175 ponies, with some of them even occasionally getting more than that if he was lucky.

Today was one of those days, thankfully. Lots of ponies came this time around, and he was thankful for it. For one thing, it meant that there would be more money coming his way, and for another, it meant that more ponies could see his performance, spread the word, and hopefully either catch the attention of other ponies or some of Equestria's elite citizens. The more turnouts at the shows, the better, with the tremendous roar of the crowd cheering him on always motivated him to put his all into his performance.

Did that exactly make up for the pain in his wings and body, along with the cut in his left arm? No, but in his mind's eye, it wasn't exactly a waste either. It was fun, and because of it, maybe more ponies would spread and the word and others could join them.

A small chuckle erupted from deep inside him as he held his arm, feeling the fresh bandage wrapped around it before letting his arm fall back down to the ground and continue on his track home. It wasn't anything he was proud of, but it was the risk he ran when it came to the performances he'd put on. Daring leaps and obstacles that were far too dangerous for any mare or stallion to attempt, yet he did for the pleasure of his fans. That being said, however, it sometimes came at a cost. Today was nothing compared to some of the other injuries he had acquired through his young career as a stuntcolt, and a simple cut was something he could tolerate. It's just that he found them extremely pesky, especially when doctors would keep you around for hours just to get you bandaged up like Shadow's Doctor did with him. To the doctor's credit, he could understand why he'd be so concerned, but all he needed was a couple stitches and a bandage wrapped around his arm. Not a half hour lecture on why he should've come in sooner or how he was lucky he wasn't later otherwise this, that, and the other.

Equestria's number one problem with doctors, he thought to himself as he made it in front of his apartment building, they never get to the point.

Thankful he only had to climb up two flights of stairs, Shadow took out the keys from his saddle bag and placed them into the key frame of his apartment door, opening the door and immediately flicking on the light switch to allow the soft and clean light flood the apartment. It wasn't exactly a very bad place for all it was worth, a living room with a state of the art kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Just the necessities without being overly complicated.

Just what he needed.

Throwing his saddlebags to some unforeseen corner of his living room, his ears twitched as the sound of the bags meeting contact with some type of cardboard box, slightly catching him off guard as he travelled to the site of the sound to find a large cardboard box next to his door. On it was a note that simply read, "Shadow Rift".

Curiously opening the box, he rolled his eyes and chuckled slightly as he was met with the sight of a new design for posters, later finding that the whole freakin' box was full of them. The design of said poster was simplistic, but extremely effect for anypony who may have wanted them. It was just a simple shot of Shadow Rift taking flight with a strange font on the front of it reading "Take to the skies here in Manehatten with Shadow Rift" before listing off a few different days and times for each show.

Just add that one to the other five we've made so far, Chromium... Shadow thought to himself as he closed the box, taking only one poster for himself and placing it with the other five he had mentioned before. Looking at the posters, he was happy to look back at the day and be able to say that he managed to, for the most part, almost sell out of them entirely. This newest artist he had hired to help him work for some of them was amazing at what he did, and it was a miracle to think that such a simple piece of merchandise could be so easily created. Sure, it cost a lot to normally make said posters, but at the very least, they would normally make the money back. Shadow had thought at one point to charge for signatures, but immediately thought against it since it was probably a bad move for somepony so low on the totem pole to try and accomplish looking ponies in the eye and telling them to give him there money just for him to give them his name.

Bad for business and bad if you wanna make money without thinking of the money first, Shadow would think to himself every time he did-

Interrupted, Shadow's ear once again twitched as he heard the soft sound of the door being knocked, restraining himself from sighing as his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Great, he thought to himself as he slowly made his way to the door, the landlord. Thought I told her that I'd make sure she'd get the rent by the end of the month...

"Who is it?" Shadow asked, doing his best and successfully holding back any negative tone in his voice. No answer came from behind the door as he rested his ear against it, furrowing his brow as he waited for the reply that never came. "Look I told you that..." Shadow began as he opened the door, trailing off as he looked through the door frame to see his landlord, expecting to see her face of annoyance and her left hoof placed against her hip. A clever and sarcastic quip even came to his mind to address said mare.

But all thoughts of said quip and expectations were completely thrown out the window as Shadow stood in silence like an idiot in the door frame.

Instead of seeing the stuck up expression of his landlord, Shadow was met with the sight of a white coated mare, with a beautifully rich and vibrant blond mane that gracefully flowed down to her shoulder. She stood up straight and took her gaze away from the ground beneath her, moving her eyes to meet Shadow's, her eye color being that of a clean and beautifully blue lake. As she stood up straight, she grasped her left forearm with her right hoof,  keeping it close to her body as a small blush grew on her face.

Her outfit, if you could call it that, consisted of a pink collar placed around her neck, and a pair of matching socks covered her forearms, almost all of which looked and probably were expensive.

Confused, Shadow's brow furrowed as he stared at the mare, whose gaze would occasionally shift between him and the ground. She was beautiful, but why she was here, Shadow was left to assume for himself. A couple of assumptions came to mind, but one or two of them were related more... Interesting intentions. "Can I help you?" Shadow asked, finally deciding to just bite the bullet and ask why rather than who first. The mare's ear twitched once as Shadow spoke to her, and immediately her sight turned back up to him. "I'm sorry... If I'm troubling you, I can come back later..." She responded with a rich accent in her voice, perhaps from some area in Trottingham. "No need... I mean, nothing's really keeping me up now." Shadow said, now leaning against the door as the mare's blush continued to grow, looking back at his barebones apartment. "So... Do you need anything?"

The mare opened her mouth as though to respond to Shadow, her eyes moving around as though she were picking out the right words to say and, eventually, shaking her head as she looked back up at Shadow. "You are Shadow Rift, correct?" She asked, seemingly already knowing the answer as her brow slightly furrowed. "One and only..." Shadow said with a proud smile, "What can I do for you?"

"I was hoping to purchase a poster from you..." She said immediately afterwards, her blushing growing to a pure red as her grip on her arm tightened. "I'm sorry... Was that too forceful?" She asked a little taken a back herself, making Shadow chuckle slightly and shake his head. "It's cool, I get it." He said as he pointed his hoof towards her, "You want a poster? Alright, I'll get you one, free of charge."

"Are you sure? I wouldn't want to hurt your sales in any way."

"Believe me, I'll be fine. I've got plenary of other posters I could sell. One free poster isn't gonna kill me." He said as his body came off from the doorframe and his hoof extend forward. "Nice to meet you." He said, the mare hesitating slightly as she debated with herself with accepting his offer before finally taking hold of his hoof and giving it a shake. "Come on in, I don't mind ponies being in here." He said as he let go of her hoof and proceeded inside of his apartment. "Are you sure?" The mare asked, Shadow turning back and shrugging his shoulders. "You don't have to if you don't want to. I'm just saying you don't have to stand out there either. Besides, there's not much in here really worth taking."

Nodding her head, the mare entered into his apartment. As Shadow turned into his bedroom, he immediately took down the various posters available from the top of his closet, throwing each box on to the bed and shutting the door with relative ease. As he opened the boxes and took out one of every poster, he would occasionally look back at the mare, now sitting on a chair in the kitchen and taking in the sight of his apartment. Celestia only knew what was running through her head at the moment, though if he were to guess, chances are she was just taking in the apartment since her eyes were traveling all around it. "Uh, I didn't catch your name, by the way... What was it?" He asked as he pulled out the last poster, looking at all of them proudly, lined up side by side with one another and proudly displaying himself and a time of date for his appearances. "Oh, my name?"

"Yeah... And could you come in her for a minute? I've got all the posters set... Oh." Shadow shouted before looking back and seeing the mare in the doorway, standing upright again as she leaned slightly against the doorway. "Sorry... Didn't see you there..." He said, rubbing the back of his head and nervously smiling at the mare, who returned the favor with a soft smile of her own while she made her way into the room and looked down at the bed, all of the five posters displayed proudly as she looked through them all.

A little while had passed before Shadow decided to break the air by clearing his throat. "So, see any you like?" He asked as he stood by her side. "Aryanne..." She said softly, making Shadow furrow her brow as she turned her head to face him, "that's my name... Aryanne..."

"Oh..." Shadow said, his brow still furrowed as he looked back down at the posters before quickly looking back at her, "Nice name. Very unique." He said, making the mare giggle slightly as her gaze returned back down to the posters. Well, that's a good sign, he thought to himself as he awaited her response. "The one here is from your first show. I remember seeing it when I went." She said, pointing down at a simple poster of him spreading his wings and staring down a ring of fire. "You went to it?" He asked, making her turn back to face him, gripping her arm once more and nod, both of which accompanied by a blush and a small smile. "I've been to almost all of them, save for only one or two..." She nervously began, "I try my best to go to as many as possible but... Life seemed to meddle with me for a bit and prevented me from going."

"Well... Do you like them?" He asked, taken by surprise as he heard that this beautiful mare would even think of going to his show. "I mean, I'm sure some ponies would like them but, do you?"

"More than you know..." She replied in a hushed voice as she hid behind her mane, preventing him from seeing her beautiful eyes. "May I have this one?" She asked, as she took up a corner of the poster, Shadow nodding as a reply. "Yeah, go ahead. It's yours." He said as Aryanne turned back to look at him. "Is it possible I could have it... Signed?"

"Well... That's gonna cost you..." Shadow said, shrugging his shoulders and rolling his eyes over his shoulder. "It... Will?" She asked, adjusting her collar and her grasp of the poster loosened. "A date." Shadow said as his eyes turned back to meet her, "That's all. You and me. Tom-"

"Yes" she said without hesitation and almost in a shout as she looked back at Shadow, "Yes, I will."

"Really?" He asked in a questioning tone, the mare nodding as she brushed her mane to the side. "Yes. I'd love to." Furrowing his brow again, Shadow was a little bit surprised to hear her almost immediate response, yet was still happy she would agree to him and simply shrugged his shoulders. "Alright, I know a nice little place in town that we can go to in the morning. For now..." He began, stretching his arms up in the air and letting out a yawn, "I could use some rest. I'm sure I can trust you not to steal anything while I put away this stuff and head to bed?" He asked, Aryanne hesitant to begin as she placed the poster down and looked at Shadow, a shy expression on her face as she began. "Actually... I..." She hesitated before going on as Shadow began to put away the posters. "Yeah...?" He said, placing the first box away in his closet and going back for the second, "I was just hoping I... That we..."

"Uh huh?" He asked as he grabbed the second box and placed it back up on the shelf. "Well... It's just... I'm not sure if you would, but if we could I'd..." She said as Shadow went back to the bed, instead of grabbing the third box, grabbing her shoulders and gently squeezing them. "Just... Take a deep breath in..." He said, Aryanne complying and taking in a deep breath, "and let it out..." He continued in a calm voice, immediately being met with the calm breath out as her gaze hit the floor.

"Now..." He began, his hoof being placed under her chin and tilting it upwards for him to see her, now blushing profusely as her cheeks were a dark shade of pink and on the verge of turning red. "Tell me..." He asked in a calm voice, trailing down her shoulder and making contact with the pink cloth of her sock before eventually grabbing her hoof. "It's okay. Just tell me whatever you need to. Say what you need to say."

Aryanne hesitated for a moment as she choked a few ones on her words, but eventually managed to do what was requested of her. To say what she needed to say. "May I stay with you tonight?" She asked, gripping Shadow's hoof tightly as she asked. Not knowing how exactly to respond, let alone how to react, Shadow gave a smile and delicately placed a kiss on Aryanne's lips, letting go of her hooves and making his way towards the kitchen.

"So, do you wanna sleep with me, or do you want the couch tonight?"

Chapter 2: Sex in the Morning (clop)

The bed that night felt a lot more warm and full then it had before as Shadow held Aryanne is his arms, smiling to himself as he watched the mare peacefully, with a cute smile on her face and her arms wrapped around his neck. The clock behind her shined the numbers of 8:00 AM in the darkness, and if Shadow were to open the blinds of the windows, he'd swear the entire room would be filled by the bright light of the sun. At first he had thought to just simply get out of bed and get to his normal routine in the morning, that being some type of breakfast food before he went out to train, but the pain from the day before could still be felt and prevented him from doing such. Besides, if he were to get out of bed, chances were that he would wake the sleeping mare from whatever dream she was having. She seemed content in his arms, and he was perfectly fine staying in bed just a little bit longer with her.

Eventually, time did pass and she awoke from her slumber, yawning and stretching her arms up in the air before her sight turned on to Shadow, smilingly as he placed his hoof against her cheek. "Morning, sleeping beauty..." He said playfully, making Aryanne blush and giggle tiredly, "did you sleep well?"

"Very..." She whispered as she pressed her body closer against his and burying her head in his chest, Shadow's instincts taking over as he wrapped his and wings around her. "You know it's 8 in the morning, right?" He asked as he looked down at Aryanne in his her arms, making her tilt her head upwards to face him. "I had assumed it was early in the morning. It's just that I didn't expect it to be that early..." She said as she nuzzled his chest. "I'm just telling you in case you wanna get something to eat right now." Shadow replied, placing his hoof on her head and slowly brushing down her long beautiful mane, feeling silky smooth and soft as he traveled down to the bottom and rested his hoof against her back.

Rumbles came from Aryanne's stomach as she looked up at Shadow, smiling and giggling rather nervously as the eruption came from her stomach. "A bit of food would go quite a way, Mister Rift..."

"That's Shadow to you." He said with a smile, "Mister Rift just makes me sound like an old jackass..." Shadow chuckled, his response triggering another giggle from Aryanne. "Very well... Shadow it is..." Aryanne finally replied, accompanied by a kiss underneath Shadow's chin, catching him slightly off guard as he looked down at her, debating his next move very carefully as he looked into her beautifully deep blue eyes.

His mind made, he shut his eyes and slowly moved his head down to her, placing his lips against her's and letting the affection her felt for her be shown this gesture.

As Shadow continued to kiss her, he could feel Aryanne's heart beat increase in tempo and continue to pick up in pace. Unknown to him, Aryanne's eyes were as wide as saucers. She was surprised by Shadow's sudden display of affection, and just as much surprised that the colt she had the same feelings for would be so open to show them. A million thoughts ran through her mind, and almost all of them were focused on him and their potential future together.

But for now, returning the favor did nicely as she leaned into his kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him in deeper to the kiss.

They both stayed like this for some time, simply enjoying one another's display of affection for the other, time passing by slowly as they did so. As Shadow rose from the kiss, he saw the blushing beauty that was Aryanne, with a single tear rolling down her cheek and her eyes staring up at him with both timidity and a strange awe. "You're beautiful..." He said, stroking back her mane as the warmth he felt in the bed continued to rise in temperature. "T-T-Thank you..." Aryanne  stammered as she held her hoof close to her lips, unable to look at him as her pink cheeks turned to a full rose red shade of blush. Shadow softly smiled as he placed his hoof on one of her own, raising it into the air and taking a firm hold of it, which was firm, but smooth and soft because of the fabric covering it.

Studying it for a bit, Shadow Rift eventually placed the bottom of her hoof against his lips, giving it a soft kiss and garnering a giggle from the mare. "Why did you do that?" She asked, looking up at Shadow yet not denying him her hoof. "Sorry..." He said with a little shyness, bring her hoof down from his lips only a short distance, "thought you'd might like it..."

"I admit it did feel... Nice..." Aryanne said as her eyes went along her shoulder to the end of her hoof. "Oh really?" Shadow questioned, bringing her hoof back up to his lips yet keeping a gap between it and him. "Yes..." She gasped, Shadow smiling as he placed another kiss against her hoof, instead of a giggle coming from the mare came a soft sigh of content. Shadow did this another three times before, eventually, a soft moan of pleasure had come from Aryanne. At first, Shadow wasn't sure what to make of the situation, but after Shadow's leg became wrapped in Aryanne's legs and a warm feeling came from her, it didn't take long for him to put two and two together.

I don't believe it, he thought to himself as he placed her hoof against lips again in a much more passionate kiss, she's in heat.

"Uh... Aryanne..." Shadow said, looking down at his leg while feeling the warmth around it growing in intensity and her grip around his leg tightening. Opening her eyes, Aryanne came back to reality as she stared down at her current position, her legs wrapped around his and the feeling of warmth in her marehood causing her face to go red in embarrassment. "I'm I'm I'm I'm... I'm so sorry, Shadow! I didn't... I mean I had no idea... I was... I'm sorry..." She finally said as her head hit his chest in shame and a torrent of tears came flooding into her eyes, a few even coming out and causing a small stream to trickle down her face.

"Hey, it's okay. It's fine..." Shadow said as he heard Aryanne slowly begin to whimper, bringing her in close and stroking her mane. "It's fine, trust me." Shadow reassuringly said, tilting her head up to face him and kissing her lips, "I don't mind..."

"W-W-What do you m-m-mean?" Aryanne chocked out, wiping away her tears. "I've... I mean I... I..." Shadow said with a shrug, starting off confidently but falling short after not knowing what exactly to say, "I like you a lot too... Enough for... Well, that, I guess."

"R-Really?" She asked, a little shocked at Shadow for being so open to the idea. "Well..." He began, trailing down her arm and taking hold of her collar, just as smooth as it had appeared, "only if you're willing to." He whispered, gently wrapping his hoof around her collar and toying around with it, waiting patiently for her response.

She didn't know what to think, let alone do. She was infatuated with the idea of allowing him to rut her a bit, bend to his will and do as he wanted, but if she did, it'd mean shed be giving her first time to a stallion she's just met. The thing she had been saving for the perfect stallion in her life, the stallion she would trust forever, was strong and protective, yet soft and kind. Shadow was kind hearted, but whether or not he was the perfect stallion would be left for time to decide. She wanted to, but she was scared to... Horribly scared to. But if she'd let anypony have her first time... She wanted it to be him. Even if he isn't Mister Perfect, he was handsome, kind, and playful. Besides... She had put on what she had for attention... His attention. May as well have made use of it.

Her mind made, she looked up at Shadow and shyly nodded. Before that, however, Shadow simply laid there watching her expressions change, as though she were debating with herself with this, keeping him on edge. "Are you sure you want to do this?" He asked, still getting over Aryanne's long time of silence. "Yes..." She said with a soft smile, "I do. I want to. I'd love nothing more than to do that with you, Shadow."

"We've only really known each other for, what? Not even 12 hours. Are you sure?" He asked, now a little concerned about whether or not they should or shouldn't and if this was too soon in a relationship to do so.

All of his concerns, however, floated away as Aryanne placed her lips around his, leaving them there for a short yet passion filled moment as she backed away, staring deeply into his eyes. "Please...?" She asked with her eyes half lidded, placing her arms over Shadow's shoulders, "I want you..."

She's not as timid as she appears, I like that... Shadow thought as a devilish smile plastered itself on his face, his hoof darting upwards to her collar and yanking her forwards. But I'll be damned if she out does me...

"Alright..." He said, holding her closely to him before yanking her collar once more, bringing her lips closer to his as she cried in excitement, long enough for her mouth to be opened and Shadow's tongue to travel down her throat. Aryanne was shocked by the sudden change, but figured it was all part of the act as she closed her eyes and allowed her tongue to latch onto Shadow's, his breath tasting of mints and her's of rich candies as their tongues danced with one another for dominance. Eventually, the fighting stopped, simply turning into romantic dancing as they passionately gave in to one another.

As it continued on, Aryanne was caught by surprise when Shadow's hoof had begun to travel down her curvaceous body and finally make a resting place against her cutie mark. As he continued to lustfully kiss her, Shadow decided to toy with her a bit, teasing her as he circled around her cutie mark with the tip of his hoof, sending shockwaves up Aryanne's spin and coming out as lustful cries of pleasure into Shadow's mouth. As he did so, Shadow could already feel her marehood begin to warm up and burn for attention. He was going to comply to her wishes since his own colthood had come to life, proudly standing straight up and twitching from the desire of being clamped tightly by her marehood.

It was a thought he enjoyed, wanting to desperately give his colthood the attention it desired. But he also wanted this to last. He wanted her to know that he treated his mares right, especially when it came to sex.

Instead of giving into her marehood's wishes, Shadow continued to toy with her as his hoof took hold of her cutie mark tightly, feeling like a plush little pillow as it made the mare moan once again into his mouth and almost melt into his arms. Not as tough as I thought she'd be... Shadow thought to himself as his other hoof finally released its grasp of her collar and travelled down her chest, where it stayed for some time as Shadow took time to appreciate her soft coat before it continued on its path to her other cutie mark, gripping tightly on to it and making Aryanne's marehood only rise in heat intensity and a long moan to fall down into Shadow's throat.

While all of this way happening to her, Aryanne had no idea what to do. It was her first time, and through it all, she had no idea where to begin with her own pleasuring of the stallion. It was even more difficult to think when Shadow's hooves felt almost magical as they gripped her plush soft rear end. For now, she was too preoccupied to think as to where to start with him, it was just better to let him have his way first before she had her's.

Shadow continued his toying with the mare, gripping her butt tightly and occasionally gracing past her marehood, now almost completely soaked in her own fluids. She was more or less ready, but one last thing to do was ensure her readiness. Taking his left hoof off of her cutie mark, Shadow's hoof placed itself against her now soaked marehood, pressing against it slowly as Aryanne's eyes widened in surprised pleasure. She moan as he did so, but as she did, she came off of their kiss and cried out in pure bliss, shifting their position on the bed and placing Shadow underneath herself. She had grown incredibly impatient from his constant teasing, and now her marehood Bruner with the intensity of Celestia's sun, begging for Shadow's colthood within herself.

"Just do it..." She pleaded, eyes wide and pupils dilated as she stared down at Shadow, who was devilishly smiling as his hooves came from her and onto his now hard colthood, twitching in the open air. "I'm not sure you want it that bad..." He said as his left hoof raised upwards and onto her chest, his smile never falling as he looked into her eyes, "I don't think you're ready yet..."

"PLEASE!" Aryanne screamed in a sex filled craze, "Just please! I want you in me! I need you in me! Just please do it!!!" She screamed, making Shadow thankful that he had no neighbors. However, even he couldn't take his own teasing anymore. His colthood was twitching with pride and begging for the same attention she was, and a large part of his brain wanted to take over and turn him into a sex fueled beast, ready and wanting to fuck her brains out. H couldn't take it anymore, and neither could she. The need was too great.

Slowly, he took his colt hood in his right hoof and her check in his left, bringing her head down to his and the tip of his colthood just the opening of her marehood, teasing it by massaging the tip against her opening. "You really want to do this? Are you willing?" He asked lustfully through half lidded eyes, Aryanne's breathing now hesitant as he brushed his colthood against her opening. "Y-y-yes...!" She breathed, placing her legs against his and pinning him down so that he couldn't help but give her what she desired. Complying, Shadow placed the tip of his colthood against her, making her hesitant breathing pick up in pace as she opened her eyes. "W-w-w-wait!" She screamed, looking down at Shadow who looked up at her, his pupils now just as dilated as he desired the feeling of her marehood wrapped around him. "B-b-be... Gentle... P-p-p-please...?" She asked, with Shadow responding with a nod as he pressed the tip of his colthood against her, slowly driving into her and making her cry out in lust as his entire length entered into her, eventually reaching her sweet end and pressing against her womb, making her shriek out in pleasure.

That's it... She thought to herself, he took it...

Though the thought of Shadow taking her marehood made her go cold, she wanted more. His colthood was thick, and it felt incredible as it pressed against her womb, but she wanted more of this incredible feeling. There was a trick that she had learned that supposedly gave mare's and stallions more pleasure, and trying it now that she had a stallion to try it out on made her want to experiment. For now, however, she wanted pleasure and to pleasure her stallion. This was her opportunity.

Bending forward slowly, she arched her back forward for Shadow to get a clear view of her round rear end, raising her hips up and electing a moan from Shadow , who had been lost in a sex fueled frenzy of thoughts, such as how tight the mare was and how amazing slick and warm her marehood was. He loved the feeling, and he loved how round her butt was as he looked over her back.

Aryanne soon slammed her hips back down Shadow's colthood, electing a moan from both of them as the squishing sound of both their liquids resonates in the room. That felt incredible... She thought to herself through their heavy gasping, making her do it again and electing another moan of pleasure from them both. Aryanne continued to do this and soon began to pick up the pace, going quicker and quicker and making the bed shake with each time she brought down her hips against Shadow's lap. This didn't satisfy her enough, however, and she soon  pushed herself off of Shadow's body and into the air, her entire body standing proudly as she bounced up and down Shadow's lap, making him moan throughout the entire ordeal as Aryanne's walls around his colthood tightened and constricted around him. For both of them, it was an incredible experience that neither of them wanted to end. Shadow had never had sex as good as this before, and Aryanne was lost in her thoughts, perfectly content with this first time and enjoying every second of it. As a first time, it was amazing... She always knew that sex was a great feeling, but up until now, had never really experienced it. Now that she had, she could safely say it was as great as it was built up to be.

Eventually, her mare juices had built up so much that her feeling of relief was coming. The ultimate release. If she was going to do it, however, she was going to do it correctly. Falling back down on Shadow's body, she wrapped her lips around his, arched her back, and gave a few more hard falls into her womb before the flood of mare juices trickled down her marehood and onto his shaft, a small puddle forming at the base as she fell limp on his chest, feeling accomplished and relieved.

Not far behind, Shadow immediately whipped his length out of her, accompanied by a popping sound as it flew out. Not knowing where else to place it, Shadow placed his length under her stomach and allowed his white fluids fly out of his hardened colthood, hitting her in the stomach and going as far as her chest.

By the end of their excursion, neither Shadow of Aryanne had so much as a word to say to one another. Words couldn't even begin to describe how incredible that all felt for the both of them. The afterglow of their sex made them both incredibly light headed, and the smell of their sex was ripe in the air, coming off as romantic to Aryanne, but fairly disgusting for Shadow. As the both of them stayed there with one another, soaking in one another's juices and contemplating their reaction to the encounter, each of them came to their own conclusions. For Shadow, it was great, incredibly. For Aryanne, it was an amazing first time, and meant to her more than Shadow could ever hope to understand.

"I love you" Aryanne finally said, making Shadow come back to reality and furrow his brow. "Say again?" He asked. "I love you..." She said, her head pressed against his chest as she heard the elevated beat of his heart. "You don't mean that. Trust me. It's just the afterglow..." Shadow said, Aryanne offering no response as she laid there with a content smile on her face.

"Well..." He began with a sigh after a silent and short time had passed, "I think a shower is in order..." Shadow finished, grabbing Aryanne in his arms and floating off of the bed and revealing the puddles of juices they traded with one another, "Care to join me?"

Chapter 3: Bathing 'n Stress

As Shadow entered into the bathroom with Aryanne still in his arms, he placed her down on the toilet seat, thankful the lid was down, to turn the water on in his bath tub.

The warm water flowed from the faucet and hit the bottom of the linoleum tub, while the warm steam of the water filling up the room and relaxing both Aryanne and Shadow. With the tub being filled with the warm water, Shadow began working on Aryanne's attire, first removing her pink collar before moving on to her socks, wet and damp with Shadow's seed and her own juices. "Thank you..." She finally said, coming out of her daze and watching Shadow begin to slowly remove her pink socks. "What're you saying thank you for?" Shadow asked, a questioned look on his face as he completed his task of removing the sock, revealing her pearly white hoof. "For all of it..." She finally managed to say, shyly looking over her shoulder with half lidded eyes and dreamily looking down at the ground, "That was... Incredible..." She concluded, a smile coming across Shadow's face as he kissed the bottom of her now exposed hoof, drawing her attention up from the floor and into Shadow's ruby red eyes. "It was great for me too... You're great..." He smiled, now going to work on her other sock, taking less time to reveal her beautiful white hoof and placing her accessories in the bowl of his sink.

Eventually, the bathtub was filled with enough water for two. Turning off the faucet with a turn of the knob, Shadow placed his hoof against the surface of the water, judging it for a short while before coming to the conclusion that it was a nice and comfortable warm temperature. "Hey..." Shadow said, turning behind him to get the attention of Aryanne, her ear flicking up and her gaze turning to him, "Water's warm..."

"Alright..." Aryanne sighed, rising from her place on the toilet seat and stepping into the warm water, standing in the tub for a short while and slowly lowering herself down. As she finally hit the bottom, Aryanne smiled, closing her eyes and enjoying the warmth surrounding her. Making sure she was comfortable in the tub, Shadow entered in after her, finding a spot right next to her and grabbing a nearby cup, filling it up with water and pouring it over his head, enjoying the warm and refreshing feeling of the water as it washed away the stink and grime of the previous day. Looking over his shoulder, Shadow smiled as he saw Aryanne smiling back at him while laying on her side, ready to lose himself in those blue eyes of hers. Shame she was probably bought, must've cost quite a bit...

Debating with himself for a while, an idea sprang into Shadow's head.

"Hey..." He said, taking Aryanne's hoof and squeezing it to get her attention, "Move on top of me..." He said, Aryanne giving him a confused look yet still smiling. "Just trust me." He reassured her with a chuckle, Aryanne's response being a roll of her eyes as she slowly climbed on top of Shadow, wrapping her forearms around him and nuzzling his chest. Responding with a smile, Shadow wrapped his wings and arms around the mare, pulling her in closer with the water passing through his wings and across his body. "What is it?" Shadow asked when he noticed Aryanne biting her lower lip and her eyes trailing down his body.

"Nothing... just a funny thought..." she finally said, moving herself up to face Shadow eye to eye, giving him a small kiss on the nose and giggling as she felt the water begin to dampen her stomach. Wonder which one she works for... Shadow thought as he grabbed a bottle of shampoo, pressing down on the nozzle and letting a small amount of soap fall in the center of his hoof. Distributing the gel between both hooves, Shadow rubbed them together and placed them against Aryanne's mostly dampened mane. "Hope you don't mind..." Shadow smiled as Aryanne gave him a confused look before returning the gesture.

"Of course..." Aryanne said, taking a small pump of soap herself, running her soap covered hooves through Shadow's mane, scrubbing it in and causing a small chuckle to erupt from Shadow's chest. "Thanks..." He said as he continued his small circular motion in her mane, now fairly messy and full of the sweet smell of vanilla. "I never expected you to be the type to use vanilla..." Aryanne said, taking note of the smell, now also coming from Shadow's messy mane. "What can I say..." Shadow said with a shrug, "I like it. Makes me feel comfortable."

***************************************

By the time they finished, a good hour had already passed. Grabbing a towel as he exited the bathroom, Shadow shook his head as the phone on the counter began to ring. Damn... he thought as he heard Aryanne from the bathroom ask, "Do you happen to have a brush, Shadow?"

"Should be one in there..." Shadow responded, finally making it to the phone, "just keep looking under the sink and in the mirror..."

Taking it off of the receiver, Shadow simply said, "talk", before a stallion's voice came through the other end. "Hey, Rift. Glad you actually gave me the real number this time instead of some Pizza place or a sex hotline..." he spoke, clearly holding back annoyance. "Oh yeah... what can I say, I was bored and I was in need of a little fun." Shadow said, remembering the day as though it were just yesterday, a long and fairly thin stallion coming up to him and asking for his number to get into contact with him.

"Yeah... very funny..." the stallion said, clearly gritting his teeth as he spoke. "I'm sorry... besides, it looks like you used that last one for me..." Shadow said with a smile as he looked back down the hall. "What in Equestria are you talking about? I never ordered anything for you."

"Wait... what do you mean-?" Shadow began before being interrupted by the stallion. "Look, I don't know what you're talking about but that's not what I'm calling you for. I'm calling you to let you know that the owners of the stadium you plan on renting out for your show are gonna let you have it for the price we all agreed to. But..."

"Always gotta be a but, huh?" Shadow asked as he rolled his eyes. "There's good news and bad news. Which do you want first?"

"Bad." Shadow responded, reluctantly awaiting the response. "They're not allowing you to have the show on the date we requested because somepony already has it booked that day, some comedian or something like that." The stallion said, Shadow's hoof making contact with his forehead and a sigh escaping his lips. "So then what's the good?" Shadow asked. "The good is that you're still getting the show. Just two weeks from tomorrow..."

"Two weeks!?"

"What do you want me to do?" The stallion replied, now a little more frustrated than before, "that's the best that I can do for you. It was already a massive pain trying to get the place reserved in advance and if I had argued any more, then I may have lost us the whole reservation."

"I get that, and I thank you for it but..." Shadow said, brushing his mane back as stress soon followed. "Look, your last show was yesterday, anyways. Chances are you're still beat from it. Take the time off, get with friends or something, rest up. It's bad to go show after show like that immediately, anyways."

"Fine..." Shadow said, a period of silence coming soon after along with a few stressful thoughts came with it. He still had the money from his last show he could use for the next two weeks, which was just enough, but if this mare with him, and she was who she thought she was, then chances are that this morning wasn't going to be cheap. "Look, Rift, I'm sorry, but I gotta go now. There's about a million different other things I've gotta take care of right now. I'll call you back later." The stallion said without a second thought, the clicking sound of the other line hanging up being heard and eventually, a long buzzing sound following soon after before Shadow hung up the phone and placed it on the receiver.

Chapter 4: Financial Detour

The phone hit the receiver with a small click, and once it was free of gripping the object, his hoof made a straight beeline to Shadow's temple. Brushing it a few times before trailing down his face, Shadow's eyes had shut tight as he placed his hoof against the bridge of his nose, a faint feeling of a headache forming coming soon after.

Stress was never something Shadow had dealt with well. With others, he would brush it off with a few quips or a stupid joke, acting as though it were nothing while he was with others and immediately return home to do anything that could relax him. What it was that relaxed him usually varied between times, but it was normally just flying. No location set, no time needed, no altitude or sound speed needed to be broken. Just relaxation as he soared with the puffy clouds above.

Unfortunately, he was still in no mood or condition to even think about flying.

"Shadow...?" Said a soft voice from behind him, making his ear twitch, "Who was that on the other line? Is everything alright?" Asked the mare's voice an causing Shadow's hoof to instinctively shoot behind his neck, giving it a few rubs as he made his way down the hall and back into the bedroom. Beginning with a sigh, Shadow's eyes shut and his head went limp as it faced the ground. "Just something I've gotta take care of later... you don't need to worry about it, though. With all due respect, it isn't your problem, it's mine..."

As she heard this, Aryanne's movement of brushing her dampened mane down ceased, stopping at the middle of her mane when it met with her shoulder. She couldn't help but feel slightly hurt by Shadow's statement, as though he were asking her to stay out of his business right out. Choosing to say nothing about it, she set the name down and took a look at herself in the mirror. Though her mane was still damp, it wouldn't be long before it dried and, as it stood, she was satisfied with the way it was styled. Perhaps if she had a tad bit more to work with beyond Shadow's stallion products, she could get more accomplished... but it didn't matter in the long run. Just as long as it looked nice enough to be seen in front of him.

"Anyways..." Shadow said, breaking the silence that had enveloped them in the room, going towards the top of his dresser and retrieving a small bag of bits. "Here..." Shadow began as he trotted back to the bathroom, stopping soon after as he saw Aryanne leaning against the wooden frame of the bathroom door. Wow... Shadow thought to himself, swearing that if she were to have wings, Aryanne could easily be mistaken for an angel. Such a shame that such a beautiful mare would be working in the business she is now. Even more so a shame that she is so beautiful, as off the top of Shadow's memory, the more beautiful a mare is, the more expensive she is. Hopefully this one accepts the payment given...

"What is it?" Aryanna asked as she moved away from the doorframe and towards Shadow, looking at the bag with a confused expression. "It's a bag of bits. Not much, but I hope it's enough..." Shadow said as he rubbed against his neck once more, now becoming faintly raw. "Well I know what it is... I'm just asking for what purpose are you giving this to me." Aryanne said as she took the bag in her hooves, feeling it's heft for a small time before giving it back to Shadow, who now had the same confused look on his own face.

"Wait... you don't know why I'm giving this to you?" He asked, Aryanne pondering his question for a short amount of time before shrugging her shoulders and shaking her head. "You sure...?" Shadow asked once more, the faintest part of his being telling him that she was telling the truth. "I can't say that I do. Am I supposed to understand why you're giving it to me?" She asked as her left eyebrow raised up and her right went down. Of course there is, Shadow thought in his head and debated on saying before scraping the idea and shaking his head. "Uh, well..." he began, thinking on the spot for an excuse that would not insinuate anything about what he was really giving the mare the money for. "I noticed you don't exactly have anything to put on yourself!" Shadow proclaimed, amazed by his quick thinking and Aryanne's seemingly genuine belief in his answer. "Put on myself?"

"Yeah, like perfume or make up. Oh, wait-! Crap!" Shadow said as his right foreleg went limp as it was weighed down by the coins and his left hoof ran through his mane. Way to screw this up, idiot! The voice in his head screamed at him as he attempted to salvage whatever he could. "I mean, you don't smell bad you smell awesome... err... that sounds weird. I mean make up in case that's your thing. You don't need it, in my opinion but if you feel as though you do, but I don't... err... damn!" He shouted as he rotated his body to face towards the wall, both embarrassed and angered at himself for being such a helpless idiot in front of Aryanne.

"Shadow... it's okay, I understand..." she calmly said, taking note of his conflict and grabbing his hoof in an attempt at calming him as she turned him to face her and placed a warm smile on her face. "I understand why you would give me your earnings, and I very much appreciate you're generosity. But I am not a mare who prides herself in caking herself in layers of make up and perfume..." she began as she cupped his cheek in her hooves, turning his head to face her as he wore a somber expression on his face. "It's alright. You needn't be so upset..." Aryanne continued smoothly as she brushed a bit of Shadow's mane out of his and placed a small kiss on his forehead. "Thanks..." he replied as he gave her a hopeful smile, mentally celebrating his ability of recovering from his screw up with relative ease while returning her kiss with one of his own. "I'm sorry about that it's just a whole bunch of stuff getting to me... first you, now my manager, and shows... it wears on you, you know?"

"To an extent. Although I do hope I'm not causing you as much trouble as these other predicaments you appear to be dealing with currently..."

"Wait, what? No... if anything you're the least troubling thing in my life right now." Shadow defensively responded. "Care to elaborate on them a bit? Perhaps speaking to somepony may relief a bit of your worries?" Aryanne asked, trying once more to get to the bottom of what was troubling Shadow. "I already told you, I don't want you worrying about it. We barely know each other and the last thing I want is to push my troubles on to some mare I met yesterday..." Shadow replied with a shaking of his head, his mental celebration cut short and his little mental image of himself dancing like a moron stopping dead in its tracks. As he argued his point, Aryanne's mind was already made up on how to respond to Shadow's statement on their lack of knowledge of one another. Smiling, she placed her hooves against Shadow's sides, sighing as she pushed him against the bed and the sound of the metallic springs supporting their weight resonated throughout the room. "Well, why not try to fix that then?" She asked, Shadow chuckling slightly when he hit the bed and amazed at how she had caught him off guard. "Fix it? I don't think another round is going to give us anymore knowledge about the other..." he began before wrapping his wings around the mare, bringing her closer to his body as he placed his hooves against her similar to how she had him. "That said, I'd still like to..."

"Shadow..." Aryanne began with a small giggle, playfully pushing him away, "That isn't what I meant... I was implying we move our date to today..."

"I thought we agreed we'd go at the end of the week."

"We had but... I would really enjoy it if we could do it today. I have no other plans for today and spending more time with you would be incredibly exciting..." she began as she stared deeply into his ruby red eyes, "You're a very interesting Stallion, Mister Rift..."

"Not exactly. I'm not as interesting as you're making me out to be..." he said with a smile, thinking of just what he has done that could constitute him as anything near interesting, all of which went to a few dark memories he'd rather chose to suppress than remember. "Besides..." he said as he attempted to pull himself further away from the unwanted memories, "You're only buttering me up so that you can find out what's bugging me..."

"Is it working?" The mare asked, Shadow responding with a kiss on her lips and a smile. "Know what? Alright, I'll tell you. Just... promise not to worry too much about it, alright?" Shadow requested, Aryanne nodding her head softly as she gave him a toothy smile, her persuasion in turning the tides in her favor proving effective as she listened eagerly and ready to help Shadow in anyway she could. "My agent called me to let me know that my next show got moved by two weeks... meaning that the amount of bits I currently have is what I have to work with for the next two weeks."

"Okay...?" Aryanne said, her eyes darting to the side and her left hoof going under her chin as she debated Shadow's predicament. "Is the amount of bits you currently have enough?" She asked, Shadow nodding and shrugging his shoulders. "It's enough, I suppose. I've got enough here to keep me going, anyways..." he replied while choosing to hold the portions of date expenses to himself. She shouldn't have to pay for herself, right? Was his mentality when holding back the information. "If you need financial help, don't be afraid to say so-"

"Don't. Okay? Just please don't..." Shadow said as he cut off Aryanne, knowing fully well where she was going. "Look, I appreciate it but, I really don't want financial help. I'm sorry but I can't accept it, especially from somepony I've only known for about a day..."

"It's alright, I understand, Shadow. But if you do need it, don't be afraid to ask..."

"Believe me, the last thing I want is to take money from you." Shadow said as he felt his pride being kicked in the chest by the thought of having to take money from a mare. Especially a mare like her. It's not a problem if he can't do it, it's a question of if he should. And as far as he was concerned, Shadow's pride wouldn't allow him to take so much as half a bit from her. "Regardless, I'm keeping my offer on the table, should you require my services..." Aryanna said as she replaced her soft smile with a much more serious expression, obviously getting annoyed by Shadow's constant declining of her offer for assistance. If she wasn't going to have her way with him on the subject of financial support, knowing she offered it was enough.

In her heart of hearts, Aryanne meant well. Shadow could tell after the tone of her voice and her attitude changed drastically, and her clear unwillingness to back down. He could appreciate her offer, but he wasn't going to take it. Telling her that in her face was probably not going to be the better option either. Because of that, Shadow immediately set about thinking of a new topic of discussion, finally settling on one subject that would, with any luck, brighten the mood.

"Fine..." Shadow lied yet did his best to make it sounds as genuine as possible. Mission accomplished, he thought as a smile graced Aryanne's face. "Let's just try changing the subject here. What were you thinking for lunch?" As she heard the words, a sigh of relief came from deep within Aryanne and past through her lips, thankful that Shadow was the one to lighten the mood and get away from the topic of finances. "Well... I was thinking perhaps..." she began before rifling off a list of every restaurant imaginable near their current location.

And though highly dissuaded by the thought of all the various places to go on this date, Shadow gladly took it over the stressful nature of the call he had received that morning. I'll worry about it later, he thought through the various descriptions of restaurants that Aryanne would, on occasion, laugh and smile at.

Ending (April Fools!)

Got bored.

Excuse me?

Yeah, I got bored. So... that's it. Your story ends here Shadow and begins anew in the next story starring you.

But I don't want it to end yet. These people don't want it to end yet. Can't we just have this story be the one you don't reboot a million different times?

Nope. I've made up my mind.

This story needs to go on. It's not great or perfect, but you have fun writing it. I've seen you writing it and love it.

Yeah, but that was a while ago. Now I'm gonna have fun writing your new story.

...I hate you...

Oh well. Trust me, you and I and all these other people will have fun with your new story.
