"The most important part of flying is not crashing." Rainbow Dash flexed her wings and struck a pose, but she couldn't stop looking at the strange wings that Midnight had. "Okay, so first thing, spread your wings as far as you can," she demonstrated with her own, "and flap them once."

Midnight watched Rainbow Dash jump a little into the air, then settle back down on her hooves again. Her own wings were much bigger, dwarfing Rainbow's entire body when taken together. She spread them out and flapped down. An aquamarine line of power ran down each wing, and she raised her voice and squealed when she looked down to see the ground falling away.

"Keep them out, you will float back down!" Rainbow gave her own wings a few pumps, reaching Midnight's height. "Or just keep flapping slowly like that… yeah." She rolled her eyes, but there was something a little like her in Midnight, and she found herself struggling not to like the dark alicorn's attitude.

Staring around, Midnight laughed and got a little unstable, but flapping her wings slow and steady kept her in the air. "This is awesome!" She both was and wasn't Twilight Sparkle: she had all the sense of wonder and delight at the world, but she had none of her jailer's fear of power. "What's next?"

The arrogance mixed with excitement encouraged Rainbow Dash to throw her plan out the window. "Well, tilt forward and flap those wings from front to back." The moment she said it, Midnight followed the instruction and took off.

"Ha!" A thrill flew through Midnight, and she laughed for the sheer joy of it. "I'm flying! Holy moly… This is awesome!" She wasn't exactly zooming around like she remembered Rainbow Dash in her own world do, but she was flying and that was all that mattered.

"Yeah, it is awesome." Rainbow Dash, in that moment, connected with Midnight in a way that transcended any normal relationship; they were flying together. "Turning is easy. Flap less with one side than the other." Cruising along, neither was going fast enough yet to be able to glide.

Midnight tried left, and it was a little rough but she did turn. Then she tried right and felt her left wing start to get a bit sore. It was a minor twinge, and she ignored it to focus on actually flying. Closing her eyes, she lowered her voice. "This is one of the greatest things ever…"

Rainbow Dash didn't expect Midnight's left wing to spasm with pain and stop, but when her new pupil turned hard and thumped into a tree, Rainbow moved faster than the wind. "I got you!" With a burst of speed, Rainbow Dash zoomed her smaller body under Midnight, her own wings taking most of their weight and gliding them to the ground.

As her hooves found the ground, Midnight's heart started to slow a little from the roaring pace it had set. But what got her attention all of a sudden, was the pegasus that was literally under her. Rainbow's back was firmly against Midnight's belly, and it felt good to have a pony in just this position. So good, in fact, that her heart was now racing for a different reason. "Thank you…"

"D-D-Don't mention it!" Rainbow Dash tried to rush out from under Midnight, but the alicorn's legs squeezed at her hips for just a moment, before releasing her. "Y-Y-Your wings will be like that for a while. You haven't used them b-b-before!" The stuttering was more from shock, and an intense feeling of being in the wrong place.

"Pinkie and Fluttershy agreed to play." Midnight stalked around, moving to stand right in front of Rainbow Dash. She never saw the hoof coming, and felt her head jerk around to the side as Rainbow hit her with a solid thunk.

"I am never going to let you do that stuff to me!" Rainbow's blood pumped hot in her veins, and she took a fighting stance in the face of an alicorn that looked shocked at her striking them.

Midnight knew rage and anger. She felt both rise in her at the strike, but she saw a mare before her carrying the same for much better reasons. She had read the situation completely wrong—had read Rainbow Dash wrong. Some anger Midnight would clutch tightly and use, but Rainbow deserved none from her. "I am sorry, Rainbow Dash." She dipped her head. "I know what it is like to be forced into things you don't want, and it is wrong for me to do that to others."

An apology was not what Rainbow expected. She relaxed her stance and tilted her head. "Then why are you forcing Twilight to be your…" She stopped at the snort from Midnight. "What?"

"I am not forcing Twilight into anything." Midnight lifted a hoof up to gingerly touch the tender side of her muzzle. "I wrapped her up in my most powerful magic. I sealed her tight and locked her magic away, and she teleported out of it all when she wanted to and not a moment later."

"What are you trying to say?" Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes; she had a good idea what Midnight was saying, but she didn't want to admit that it actually interested her.

"Your princess, Twilight Sparkle, enjoys playing very adult games that have very strict rules." Running her tongue around the inside of her mouth, she didn't feel any loose teeth. "She might be the most powerful pony in Equestria, and be an amazing leader, but…" She trailed off at the bark of derision Rainbow gave. "What I am getting at is, Twilight has tastes in the bedroom that have nothing to do with how you view her."

"And you could tell all that from one night?" Rainbow found herself lulled into a more relaxed stance by the tone of the conversation, not the topic.

"Do you forget who I started off as?" Midnight rolled her eyes. "Twilight… my Twilight," just the thought of her made Midnight's blood boil a little, "has similar tastes, but she lacks any hint of what I would have brought in the bedroom. I doubt that little flower could even think to ask for what Princess Twilight begs me for."

"She really begged you?" Rainbow Dash wasn't sure why, but the image of Princess Twilight Sparkle, one of her closest friends, begging somepony for something so naughty had her grow aroused. It was more than an idle thought, though, Rainbow felt an intense jolt inside.

Midnight wished she had more experience reading people, and especially more reading ponies. "She begged me when I asked her nicely." She folded her legs and lay down on the grass, giving Rainbow height over her.

Rainbow was more and more surprised at how un-villain-like Midnight was. Before she could catch herself, she found herself asking, "What's it like?" Blushing with an intense heat, Rainbow shook her head. "Not that I want to—"

"It feels amazing." Midnight closed her eyes and remembered the moment when she had told Twilight her intentions. "I told her I was taking control of her for the night, that she could only call me Mistress, and that she wasn't allowed to use magic."

Rainbow clamped her tail down tight, and had to fight her wings' attempt to jump out in surprise. "Uh, what did she say to that?" It was worse than reading a Daring Do book, she wanted to know more and more, and everything Midnight told her seemed to make her want to learn extra still.

"She said, 'Yes, Mistress Midnight.' " Midnight opened her eyes and looked at Rainbow Dash; the mare was almost squirming where she stood, and it was perfectly obvious that she was very excited about the conversation's topic now. Midnight had a hypothesis. "Tonight, when I play with Twilight, would you like to come and play too?"

"What?!" Rainbow Dash's eyes were wide, her wings flew up to full-stretch in shock and, worst of all, her tail rose to reveal both the scent and sight of her arousal; Midnight wasn't able to see, but she could now smell something new.

"You can just watch if you like, and we can wait until Twilight is so well bound that she won't know it is you." Midnight pushed, both asking and getting to play with Rainbow would be grand experiments, and there was enough nerd in Midnight to appreciate how perfect a theory this could create.

Rainbow Dash's mind raced, but when it came time for her to tell Midnight no, to tell her that she would never do these things to one of her best friends, she couldn't. "She… she really likes it?"

"Despite what some would think of me, I am not a monster." Midnight leaned her head down and rested her chin on the ground, putting herself as low before Rainbow Dash as she could. "She even decided on a simple word to stop our fun, and when she spoke it I stopped and listened to her."

"She asked you to stop? And you did?" Rainbow blinked at the concept. "How does that even work? You had all the control!"

"Even when I had the Princess bound as tight as could be, she held that power over both of us." As Midnight explained, she realized the truth of the situation, and that it made things a lot sweeter to her taste.

"Uh, but if you like gagged her, how could she say this special word?" Rainbow Dash was so used to nonverbal communication that thoughts of it came naturally. She watched as Midnight blinked in shock.

"We… we are still working things out." It was a painful thing for Midnight to admit, but she slumped. "I need help. I need somepony to think of these sorts of things, and I need somepony to cover for me while I read up on more things."

"I'll do it." Rainbow Dash was more surprised than Midnight at her quick agreement. She was poised to contradict her assent when an image of Twilight—wearing the same gear that Midnight had put on Twi when they first appeared—blinked into her head.

"I knew I could trust you to help." Midnight felt a bubbly feeling inside, one that threatened the roiling ball of anger inside her, but neither seemed ready to fight for control of her emotions. "So, what I thought we would do is—"

"Hi!" Pinkie pronked up to Midnight and Rainbow, causing them to halt their naughty conversation. "Did you want a cupcake?" She reached into her mane and pulled out two baked treats; one was covered in rainbow frosting, the other swirls of purple, black, and aquamarine. She held them out to each of the two mares.

Rainbow clamped her tail back down as tight as she could, and ruffled her wings a little. Then she got the best idea ever and flapped her wings front to back once, scattering her scent. "H-Hi Pinkie." She took the cupcake and bit into it. Like always the taste was amazing, and made her feel like flying.

Midnight's eyes went wide when she bit into the treat, and she froze in place. The taste was not just good, it was heavenly. She closed her eyes and ate more, not stopping before she could—and did—stuff the last of the cake in her mouth.

Pinkie leaned to Rainbow, lifting one hoof to attempt to muffle her words—to little actual effect. "I think she liked it."

"Nopony could dislike your muffins, Pinkie." Rainbow Dash had managed to stop herself from scoffing down the whole thing. "So, what's up?"

"Oh yeah!" Pinkie reached into her mane and riffled around for a little while before pulling out a note. Grabbing an empty envelope from her mane too, Pinkie carefully put the note in the envelope, licked the flap, and sealed it up. "This is for you!" She passed the sealed letter to Midnight.

Her mouth still full of cake, Midnight carefully took the letter in her hoof, before remembering her magic. Lifting the note up, she carefully trimmed the end of the envelope open and drew out the note.

"What is it?" Rainbow Dash walked around to Midnight's side, to try to spot the writing. "It's an invitation to a very special party." Pinkie blurted out the topic, and then covered her snout with her forehooves.

Midnight actually blushed at the writing on the paper, and when Rainbow Dash tried to look at it she quickly folded the paper closed. "Uh…" Her brain was frazzled by the ideas, and at least one description involving two hang-gliders and a two-tier chocolate wedding cake. "This… We can't do all of this in one night…"

"Well duh," Pinkie stepped forward and booped Midnight Sparkle on the nose, "you silly billy. The plan was for two years, and I need to make this the best and longest running party ever!" Wheeling her trusty party cannon out from behind her, Pinkie shot streamers into the air above Midnight.

"R-Rainbow… help!" Midnight tried to look to Rainbow Dash for help, but the open expression of excitement and anticipation on Pinkie's face was something nopony could resist. "Please…?"

"Oh no. This is something everypony in Ponyville has to go through without interference. Looks like we will have to rain check our… fun." A moment of relief rose within Rainbow, that she was going to have a little more time than half a day to deal with her… feelings.

Pinkie gasped at the realization that she had interrupted something. "Oh no! No, no, no!" She shook her head. "If you were both planning a special night then…" She reached out and grabbed the letter from Midnight, pulled a quill from her mane with a hoof and scribbled on it. Passing the letter back to Midnight Sparkle, she grinned.

"Now I am allowed to bring a 'plus one'?" She froze at the idea, and looked at Rainbow Dash, then at Pinkie. "We were going to play some… special games with Twilight."

"Ooo." Pinkie bounced in place. "What sort of games?" Rainbow coughed as loud as she could, but Pinkie would not be dissuaded. "Were you going to tie her up and tease her sexually for hours on end?"

The color drained from Rainbow Dash's face. "Igottagosomewheresomethingimportantwithcloudsandflyingbye!" A rainbow streak shot away from Midnight and Pinkie faster than anypony but Rainbow Dash herself had ever moved.

Midnight looked at the colors, then to Pinkie. "Well, actually yes we were. Are you interested in—" She leaned down and nuzzled Pinkie's ear, only to have a toothless alligator clamp their gums on her snout. "What the…!"

"Oh! You found Gummy!" Pinkie reached up, tapped the alligator's snout and retrieved it from Midnight. "Silly. Of course I would love to do that. Using ropes, straps, or maybe some of that fun-looking stuff you used on Twilight?" She stroked Gummy's head and looked at Midnight without a single hint that she had asked how Midnight wanted to top her. "If you want me to pick, I would go with a nice collar and leash."

"P-P-Pet play?" Midnight gulped. "You like being a bottom?"

"What? No silly. I want you to break me, I love it when a pony just crushes my fight." Pinkie squirmed in place, the first physical sign that she was actually talking about sexy things at all. "Of course, I like breaking ponies too. Interested?" Midnight "eeped" and took a step back. "Oh, you're a top only? That's great. Look, I better go get Dash, or she will never come tonight."

Midnight's brain was a little frozen. "Y-You are…"

"Of course, if she comes, she will come a lot!" Pinkie waved, lifting Gummy up and waving his little foreleg too. "See you later!"
