"What's your connection with him anyway?" Luna asked.

"Do you want the long or short part of it?" Allan asked.

"Long." Luna replied

"Six thousand years ago, yes I'm that old, he wasn't evil, in fact quite the opposite he was a member of the first age guardians, there were eight in total, before I became one. There was Tempero, the fire guardian and elder of the clan, then Hydrica, the water guardian, she was a few years younger then our elder. Then came Arcibus and Hibernor, the guardians of lightning and ice, Windu, guardian of the wind, Shadow guardian of the dark elements, Mitilda guardian of the earth element, and Shivina, guardian of the rarest element, light, youngest of all the guardians. Master Windu sought me out and brought me to the temple, back then the dark elves were the main threat against the peace, lead by Melkum. Each one trained me to harness the elements and help train the younglings and them in the art of combat. For years I have had the title of greatest swordsman of the West coast it intrigued them enough to bring me to their home. Years of training and warding off the dark elves then all ended by a war that ended their lineage. But as the years moved by Shadow became more and more isolated, he, being master of the dark elements was in charge of guarding black magic, the same magic the dark elves used to fight us.
Everyone noticed it but did nothing about it, we all hoped he could contain the darkness but it was not meant to be as my daughter reached her 23rd birthday the darkness took over Shadow and he killed, Arcibus, first and wounded Tempro and Hydrica then fled east to what we now call Ered Gorgoroth, the Mountains of Terror. There he created his fortress in the land of darkness, anything that lived there died, rivers of water became lava, save for a few ponds so he had drinking water, and the land became a desolate waste land, nothing could inhabit it. He then made a pact with the zburators, beings of half wold half dragon to be his army in exchange for the elven forest, where my kind live, will half my kind the other half were humans. They agreed and soon after came the Dark War. A six hundred and fifty year war that Shadow started and pushed us back far to the West coast, leaving three quarters of our once peaceful world under his rule.
The war dragged on through the years, as he created stone sentinels and recruited other creatures that inhabited the Eastern main land of the dragon realm such as chimera's, other dark dragons, men from the east answered his call and many others. The cities and villages he captured were either put into slavery building his fortress and fortifying the land or put on the front line of his army, death either way for many. Once he had three quarters of the world in his grasp he wanted to eradicate those that remained defined of his rule, myself and the remaining guardians that didn't get killed during other battles in this war.
Having only a handful of guardians, fire, water, earth, wind, light and myself we rallied up as many as we could, even two purple dragons, twins even and we pushed Shadow's forces back. Twenty fives years it took to finally end his rule, the dark elves were extinct as where the humans, elves, dwarves and a few other races and Shadow killed the two purple dragons, my family and the rest of the elders except the decedents of Tempero and Hydrica, they stayed back while I pushed on, killing the bastard and burying him in an unmarked grave having returned the peace to our world. After the war the remaining two elders seeked a home and raised younglings of their own and I vanished for a few millennials before I was on the path, traveling from place to place, never to be heard from for a long time."

It was safe to say that everyone was stunned by the story, a once mighty guardian turned evil by dark magic and started a six hundred year war, no one saw that coming. For the longest time they remained silent not sure how to respond to that, their mouths opened but nothing came out until Luna finally spoke up.

"Sorry for your lose, I now see why you hate him as you do, if he has killed my sister I have no doubt I'll feel your anger towards him."

"Let us hope it hasn't come to that. The hour grows late you all need your rest." Allan said walking out of the room without so much as a good night.

"Think we struck a nerve." Shining said and the rest nodded. As the evening progressed into night the Princesses headed to bed, Luna headed for Twilight's room.

"Luna?! I thought you were with Spyro and Cynder?" Twilight asked.

"They are sharing a moment." Luna said, blushing when she heard the soft moans coming from beyond their door.

"Well the more the merrier." Rarity said.

"Thank you for letting me stay."

The girls waved their hooves, saying it's no problem and then they stared telling spooky stories and having the Princess of the night they all tried to scare her, only she found their stories humorous as she heard or made them before. Finally it was her turn, "get ready for a real spine chiller." Luna smiled a wicked smile.

"Many moons past there was a farmer, he and his wife harvest blueberries, but this farmer was a retired guard and has many battle scars. One night he felt restless and walked out to the barn, the scar on his right shoulder acting up, causing him to drop his lantern setting the barn ablaze. His wife smelt the smoke and rushed out to save her mate, she saw him laying there holding his shoulder. 'He's coming for me.' Said the farmer. His wife concerned asked 'who? Who is coming for you?' The farmer looked out towards the open doors, 'him' the wife looked in the direction of his gaze and saw a cloaked stallion. But this was no stallion, he was thin as a skeleton and a scythe in his hoof, standing just outside the flames was the angel of death himself, the grim reaper."

The girls were huddling together, shaking out of their horseshoes, Applejack was shaking the worse out of the six for Luna's story got her thinking about her barn up in smoke and seeing the stallion of death himself.

"Boo" Luna said and all six screamed and the night Princess laughed so hard to the point of crying from laughter. After they all calmed down, they told stories about their coltfriends, and Luna had a few stories about Zephyr that she thought Twilight would find funny. While next door their counter parts were sound asleep, sawing logs, the royal couple were cuddling, the young Princess was cocooned in her blankets. Allan was looking at the necklace he had around his neck, a memory of his wife, and Spyro and Cynder were having a blast in bed.

"Up for round two?" Spyro whispered, having Cynder's juices all over his muzzle.

"Oh yeah," she sighed, rolling onto her back for him. She looked up into his eyes and he brought her into a deep, passionate, loving kiss as he slowly edged himself over her, his throbbing meat aching as he excited her. He lowered his hips and smiled to himself when she gasped and shivered as he slowly rubbed his length on her glistening vagina. She looked at him with a desperate desire in her eyes. "Do it already," she moaned. Spyro pulled himself back and slowly entered her, sending a pulse of pleasure through her.

"Oooooooohhhhhh..." they both groaned at once as he continued to slowly push his cock into her, pleasure rippling through them as she stretched around him and squeezed him. He stayed inside her for a bit as they kissed each other, and moaned as he pulled out to start the rhythm. A sudden powerful craving for him took hold of her and she groaned as he paused, absolutely desperate for release.

"You're ready then?" he asked.

"Please...stop stalling..." she panted. "I want you so badly...please just do it..."

"If you say so," he said softly and lustfully, and pushed into her. Her painful desire turned into instant pleasure and she moaned loudly, wrapping her arms around his neck as he slowly thrust in and out of her. She wrapped her tail around his and let him take over as he slowly sped up. She didn't need to tell him to go faster or harder; as the desire came to her mind he sensed it and readily complied until he was ramming himself into her and making both of them scream with each thrust. Spyro shuddered with a loud moan as his cock spurted his hot pre-cum into Cynder, and she shivered as she felt him coating her insides. Spyro locked his lips to hers and went all-out as they lost themselves to each other in ecstasy and love. As usual, they excited each other even more by sharing their flame breath in each other's mouths, but Spyro tried something a bit different and used a few tiny sparks of electricity.

The new sensation sent Cynder over the edge and she flung her head back and screamed "SPYYROOO!!" as she climaxed, and the onslaught of her fluids around his member made him lose himself and he roared, shaking the ground with his voice as he finally released in her. Cynder shivered and moaned happily as she felt his hot waves of love gush into her. Spyro wanted her thoroughly satisfied and kept himself erect as long as possible, still thrusting in her even though his legs were wobbling from the intensity of his orgasm. He eventually pulled out as his member softened.

Before he could lie down next to her, though, she whipped herself around underneath him and took hold of his still-visible meat and began sucking him off, indulging in the taste of both her juices and his. He moaned and shuddered as she licked him just the way she knew he liked it, and she grinned to herself as his softening member grew stiffer again in her mouth. She took as much of him into her muzzle as she could, rolling her tongue over his sticky shaft and savoring his flavor. She was growing aroused again, and Spyro smelled her leaking out of herself and decided to return the favor. He lay on his side without interrupting her and ran his tongue over her dripping sex, and she moaned and sucked on him harder as his tongue entered her and began cleaning her. His mouth played with her opening as his tongue wriggled inside her, and she groaned as her arousal increased swiftly. Before she could react, she came again, and Spyro grinned as he lapped up her sweet nectar as it leaked from her. She had just barely managed to keep from biting him or roasting him in her orgasm, and furiously rubbed and licked his member until he moaned loudly into her and filled her mouth with the last of his cum. She tried to contain it all, but even for it being a second time he still had too much for her. They lay there for a few minutes, panting in their afterglow before thoroughly licking each other clean and coming together in a deep, loving kiss. They soon lost the battle with fatigue and fell asleep.

The next couple of days were uneventful, Allan spent his time in the training grounds where if any pony passed by would find a seat and watch. First off he starts in a ready stance, legs shoulder width apart, hands closed, out in front, head down, after a few seconds his head snaps up looking at his target, though no one is there, raises his arms up and brings the back down right in front left pulled back as he turns his upper torso, right leg in front, left behind. He then swings his left and over his right in a flowing motion, then repeats it with right over left, turns and punches the air with a side punch, (your fist is turned to the side, fingers pointing back at you), turning again and bringing his right hand down on some ones head, turning back and thrusting out his left palm, striking someone in the chest. He then grabs his sword and stands with his sword raised up and his left hand and leg out, slicing vertically while stepping forward with his right, following up with a revers slash, stepping forward again. Throwing his sword up he then spins, bring the sword down at the end of the spin, using its momentum to guide him as well as his foot work. Followed by what is called a snake, twirling the sword in front of and behind his body, he then spins counter clock wise and comes with a cut downward, spinning clock wise, grabbing the blade of the sword and thrusting the pommel into someone if they were there, then reversing his stance and thrusting the blade into the air.
Stepping back he twirl the sword before going into another stance where his right leg has 70% of his weight and the left only 30%, his sword leveled just below his chest, left hand straight out before spinning while doing the snake, rolling onto the ground, coming back up to go down on his right knee, left leg bent to the side, his sword stabbing just above the groin area. Staying there for a second or two before coming up again, snaking the sword around him as he walked backwards six steps before swinging the sword around, twisting his body to strike whoever would be behind him, twirling it around as he spun around, keeping foes at bay before leaping over something, rolling before sprinting up with a vertical slash, landing in a similar pose before hand, only revers the leg positions, right leg bent off to the side, left leg was on its knee, sword in the air. Looking up he got back onto his feet, spun around and brought his sword down as if cutting someone's head from their body, turning around he brought it up and stabbed the ground before going back into his calm, ready pose.

Most who watch are stunned at his training methods, it's never the same each day he's always working on something different. Though the nights seem to be more busy as girls would tell what they hope to happen with them and their coltfriends, Twilight, like the others hope Zephyr will propose to her and they have fillies of their own, do some redecoration in the castle to accommodate their children. Applejack will eventually take over the apple acher, as Big Mac is seeing more of Sugarbell, he will no doubt stay at the farm for work, and she will still have her little sister for help, both on the farm and raise her children while Hector will be at the palace working. Rarity hopes to travel with Fancypants, Pinkie Pie and Cheese sandwich, will everybody guessed it, they want to make a party house to plan their parties, raise their young and make them the next gen party ponies. The list goes on about what they want to do or hope will happen, the odd time Luna would visit for the night and say what her wishes are. Other nights she joins the young couple in sex and shows them a trick or two, or asks them not to do it if they were planning it.

One night Cynder was drapped over Spyro, Luna cuddled in beside him, and she couldn't sleep, she didn't toss or turned, not wanting to wake her mate so she slide off him and the bed and walked down the hall. "Some fresh air should help some." She whispered to herself making her way to the throne room, fazing into shadow, she went through the doors and onto the balcony before turning back to normal. Taking a deep breath, she released it looking up at the beautiful night sky Luna decorated with the stars, but her stomach was unhappy for some reason, a strange but not uncomfortable feeling in her abdomen, moaning she held her belly for a while before laying on the cool crystal balcony which helped a little. She then realized what she was feeling and it startled her. "Oh crap crap crap....what do I do? How? why? I'm not in heat." then it dawned on her that she must have dreamed of having a family and left Spyro's semen inside her, but she wasn't in heat yet so why was she pregnant? "Cadence she might help!"

Cynder fazed into her shadow form and made her way to Cadence's and Shining's room. "Psst Cadence wake up I need your help." Cynder whispered into the pink mares ear. "Cadance please its important."

"Hmmm...wha...who..." Cadence groaned, looking up at Cynder with groggy eyes. "Cynder?"

"Sshh I have something to tell you it's important. Lets go to the throne room."

"O-okay." Not fully awake the alicorn followed the dragoness into the throne room, where Cynder casted a wind bubble around them so no one could hear them. "What is it?"

"I'm pregnant."

Cadence was in complete shock. "YOUR WHAT!!??" She then clapped her hooves around her muzzle but no one came rushing in. "Your pregnant?" Cynder nodded and hung her head.

"I didn't even enter my season yet, but I read about the symptoms and I have them. There is a way to stop the progress but only a dragon nurse knows how to do it safely. And I was hoping you can help slow the progress." Cynder said lowering her head and looking at the pink mare.

"I'll see what I can do, lay down on your back." Doing what she was asked, Cynder laid on her back and exposed herself to the Princess of love. Cadence walked up to Cynder's exposed sex and as she got closer the first thing she notice was a sweet aroma coming from the young dragoness. Taking a deeper breath it smelt like roses and vanilla, "Your sure your not in heat?" Cynder shook her head. "Ok wait here for a moment." Cadence left the room and quietly made her way into Twilight's room, opening one of her saddle bags she startled looking around till she found a seal on one that resembled a dragon, then another and another. Opening all three she read each one till she found what she was looking for, " Dragons go into heat twice a year, we, the females, give off a sweet aroma that attracts the males that are within the area. Sometimes we get a sight pain in our region. It can last for two weeks, longest recorded heat was three weeks."

Cadence closed the letter and put it back into her sister-in-laws bag before going back to Cynder. "How do dragons go into heat again in your world?"

"Our hormones would kick in, making us very needy, a slight pain in our lower region, we give off a sweet aroma, not a powerful one but enough to get our mates attention that we have gone into heat, why?"

"I found a letter from Lady Ember, a dragoness that Twilight has been in contact since she became ruler of the dragons here and her letter said that the female dragons here go into heat twice a year, giving off a strong yet sweet aroma and at times get a slight pain down there, nothing about hormones though."

"Yet I haven't felt the pain, or giving in to my hormones, only giving off the scent, normally saying I'm aroused, not in heat....you don't think that this world might have affected my heat so it's more like this world's dragons do you?"

"I'm no dragon expert, even though you and Spyro practically gave me a book of detailed information of your kind, that doesn't mean I know our world's dragons. Is it possible that your friend might know?"

"Allan? Maybe...should we wake him though?"

"I see no other way you wait here I'll go wake him." Cynder nodded and again quietly making her way down the hall, Cadence made her way to Allan's room, opening the door she made sure not to startle the large guy, closing the door she walked up to his bed, removed the blanket, and her eyes widen at the sight of the many scars he had just on his back. Shaking her head she shook him whispering his name, only to get a groan in response, she continued to shake him till he was looking at her with the hundred yard stare, ready to rip her head off.

"Sorry to wake you so late but we got a slight problem....Cynder's pregnant."

His eyes widen, his mouth saying 'Oh shit' but it didn't come out, grabbing his under shirt he and Cadence made they way to Cynder. "Is it true? Your pregnant? " was the first things that he said and she nodded. Cadence then explained what she thinks about the dragons here, how their heat works compared to Cynder's and that the magic here might have affected her heat to be more like the dragons heat here. Allan was pacing back and forth wonder what to do know. "For sure your with little ones, it not just a bad stomach ache?" Cynder gave him a looked that said really and go to hell at once, raising his hands up in defense, "Just asking. I've never heard of something like this happening, then again I've never really dimension jump before so I don't know what to say. I take it only we know of the news?"

"Yes I don't want to tell Spyro other wise he might do something stupid."

"Hmmm I think our time table has just shortened if this world's magic hasn't affected her birth stages we got two weeks before she starts showing her pregnancy and that will make her Shadow's number one target. Cadence go wake up your husband and Luna, I'll get Zephyr."

"Why him?" Cynder asked

"Luna told me is an excellent strategist and we're going to need that. We'll meet back here, bring coffee for everyone to stay wake."

The two headed to find those they were looking for, Shining and Zephyr were easy to get up but Luna was a little harder to wake, not only was she curled in beside Spyro but it seems like she can be a heavy sleeper when she wants to be. Eventually they got her up, having to duck under the bed as they woke Spyro up as well. "Where you off too?" He asked still asleep.
"My nightly duties after all I am the Princess of the night." Spyro didn't argue he just fell back asleep and soon everybody was in the throne room. Allan told Cynder to release her wind shield as he casted another sound proof barrier around the entire room. Cadence explained everything and as to why they woke them up this late at night.

"So our time sheet just got cut short and now we need to bring the fight to the only known creature that actually captured Canterlot, GriffinStone, and Twilight's castle. And to add to our worries we got a pregnant dragon, no I'm not blaming you Cynder you didn't see this coming either, that has two weeks before the rest learn of her secret, we are going to need a miracle." Zephyr said

"No what we need is a game plan to bring the fight to them, and to do it in a short amount of time so put your minds together and let's think of an attack that gives us the home field advantage." Allan said then the room went quiet.

Everyone came up with various ideas but they forgot the vast number of changelings that now patrol the area. "I got it." Cynder said. "Why not have Zephyr, Allan, myself and Luna, teleport into Twilight's castle around night time, say two nights from now, kill those that are inside and lure the rest in once we have taken care of those inside. We know the layout of the castle better then them, Allan's a quick study and we got the right colors for a night time operation. And I'm only saying two nights so we can sleep for tomorrow night and be rested for the operation the next night."

Everyone was thinking it over and nodded in agreement. "But just to be safe make sure someone is near you Cynder at all times. We don't want you to miscarry your first clutch." Shining said and Cynder pointed at Luna who interned smiled in agreement.

"Then it's settled two nights from now we go inside the castle, wipe out the intruders, lure the rest in and terminate them. Sounds good, then go full scale on the royal palace with everyone in dark clothing or better yet armor. I'll talk to discord about the armor see if he will help." Cadence said.

"Oohh but of course I'll help the soon to be mom help in her grand scheme, as you do realize my girl will be no doubt part of the full scale attack and so will I, so I'll give everyone either dark clothing or armor, whatever they prefer." Discord said popping beside Cynder, rubbing her belly, getting her to murr from the carrying gesture.

"Thank you Discord." Cadence said.

"Think nothing of it." With that he snapped his fingers and vanished.

Allan took down his sound barrier and they all headed for the kitchen for some coffee and light snack, mainly fruits and vegetables, telling stories, sharing laughs, soon the others joined their, "early riser" for breakfast.

Author's Note

Made some changes to the back story of Allan as I've been currently writing his story and felt to update the story here to match his.
