Twilight Sparkle: The Princess of Friendship With Benefits

The next morning, Twilight woke up feeling very well rested. She immediately noted that she felt very good. She felt very similar to how her strange illness first made her feel. Content and happy. But unlike then, there were no negative side effects. Her stomach was just fine, her mind felt clear, and her nethers had finally settled down.

'I feel better now. My illness must be gone. But, what cured it? Was it...?'

She looked to her side to see Spike slumbering away right next to her. She suddenly remembered what happened last night, and blushed furiously.

'Oh no! I gave Spike my...! He took my...!' After a moment of flustered embarrassment, she looked back at him and smiled. She kissed his cheek.

"...He took my virginity..."

Twilight watched him sleep for a while.

'He really is a cute little dragon, isn't he?'

After a while of watching him sleep, Twilight was surprised to hear him finally stirring from his slumber.

"...aauugh... I feel so tired..."

Twilight smiled and said, "Good morning, Spike!"

"Ahhhh!" Spike nearly jumped out of his skin.

"T-twilight!" Spike said, jumping out of bedand looking at his friend. He looked around and said, "Why are we in your room?"

Twilight said nothing. She blushed.

"No... It couldn't be! Don't tell me we actually...!"

Twilight again said nothing, but blushed harder, Twiddling her thumbs now.

"Oh. My. Celestia. That means I took your-"

"It's fine, Spike." Twilight cut him off, but then she blushed again. "I've always wanted to give it to you."

"R-really?" spike said, astonished.

"Really!" Twilight smiled back at him.

Spike lay back down in bed, staring up at the ceiling, a smile on his face. "It sure felt good though."

"It sure did."

Spike looked over at Twilight to see her grinning.

'Last night must have been some party to make her this happy.' Spike thought as he grinned back.

"So, Twi? Breakfast?"

"Of course, Spike. Thank you."

"No need to thank me. I'm your number one assistant after all."

Twilight got out of bed and stood up, turning to look at Spike, who did the same. "You're not just my assistant anymore Spike."

Spike looked confused for a second. "I'm not? Then what else am I?"

"You're my number one lover too!"

All was silent. And then, after what felt like hours, they both blushed.

"Um...yeah...right." Spike said, scratching his head nervously.

"Um...Spike?" came Twilight's voice, breaking through his embarrassment.

"Yes?"

"Breakfast?"

"Oh, right! Coming right up!"

Twilight giggled as she watched him leave. Her lover could be so cute sometimes.

But then it hit her. Spike was her lover now. What did that mean for their relationship? Would Spike not want to be her assistant anymore?

She shook her head and put those thoughts to the side for now. She had breakfast to eat!

But, as she left her room to follow spike to the dining room, she suddenly realized she was forgetting something important.

'I still need to see Celestia about my illness!'

She quickly looked around her room. She needed to take a shower again, after what happened last night she smelled like sex. And although she liked it, because it reminded her of Spike, she knew other people wouldn't.

She quickly went through the daily routine, with a few added points to make up for time, and spent the rest of the time until breakfast searching for something to wear when she visited the castle.

When she finally found it, she made her way downstairs to the dining room, where she saw Spike, who had just finished making her favorite Rose and cherry sandwiches.

"I hope you made a lot of those Spike, because we're going on a little trip."

Spike looked confused again. "Of course I did. A trip? Where?"

"To Celestia's!" Twilight flared her wings and flew towards the basket he put on the kitchen counter. Snatching it up along with Spike, she flew out of the castle and made her way towards Celestia's own castle in Canterlot.

ONce there she touched down upon the front steps of the large mountainside structure and knocked three times, eliciting an instantaneous, almost automatic response from the two guards posted at the door.

"Halt! State your business!" The guardsmen stated together. They both examined her. They stared all the way from her feet to her face, Then it hit them.

"Oh! Princess Twilight!"

"Yes, it's me. I thank you for being so good at your jobs, but could you please let us in?" She gave them a nervous smile.

"Of course, Princess!" With that, they let her in, allowing her to walk the halls of the castle.

Twilight had expected Celestia to have heard her knocking and to already be at the door. 'Huh, must be a pretty big place for them to not have heard me. Not that I didn't know that already of course. I can be so silly sometimes.'

She smiled to herself as she made her way to Celestia's chambers on pure autopilot. She didn't even have to pay attention to get there. Just like before, with the library, she was so used to this place that it was like a second home.

Once there, she looked up at the door. The grand chamber doors that she had been through so many times before suddenly seemed so terrifying once she remembered what she came here for.

After being dragged around for nearly the entire trip, Spike finally decided to speak up. "So, what are we at Celestia's for?"

"You'll find out soon enough. I promise." came Twilight's reply.

"Aww, come on, Twi! I just got dragged, by my tail I might add, all the way out here! What are we doing? Please tell me."

Twilight turned to her lover with a serious expression on her face. Spike suddenly felt a horrible sensation crawl up his spine.

But that sensation faded as her expression softened. "I'm sorry, Spike. I know I dragged you here without letting you know why we were coming, and you deserve to know. I just couldn't tell you what was happening to me because I didn't know the answer to that myself."

"So something was going on with you! I knew it!"

"Exactly, Spike. And that's exactly what we're here to find out about. I need to find out what this is so I can fix it. And to do that i'm going to need to talk to Celestia. So please, wait until we get inside?"

Spike thought about it for a moment. "Oh...alright, I guess I can wait a little longer."

"Thank you so much." She walked up to Spike and kissed him deeply. "My lover." She batted her eyelashes at him, causing him to blush.

With that done, she walked up to the doors, all fears forgotten, and knocked three times, just like with the front door.

"Come in, Twilight! It's open!" came Celestia's voice.

Twilight was a little shocked, but made her way inside her former teacher's chambers. It brought back so many memories to be back here after all these years.

"How did you know it was me princess?"

"Besides Discord and Cadence, you're the only one who ever visits me anymore."

"What about my brother?"

"Cadence and Shining Armor are a package deal, Twilight."

"Then What about Discord?"

"I just got done speaking with him the other day. The only one left was you. And it was only a matter of time before you came along as well."

"You did? But what could you and discord possibly have to talk a-"

The blush on Celestia's face told Twilight everything she needed to know.

"So, Twilight. What was it you needed to come and talk to me about?"

"How did you know I had a problem?"

"How long do you think i've known you Twilight. I'm practically your mother. And I can tell when my daughter has a problem. Now sit down and tell me all about it."

While Celestia's tone of voice did indeed make her feel like a little filly again, it actually made Twilight feel more comfortable. She liked having an authority figure around. Being one herself made things very hard for her sometimes.

"Well, you see. I have this problem...with my body."

"Your body? Whatever do you mean, Twilight?"

"I believe it to be some sort of an illness."

"An illness? Have you felt unwell recently?"

"Yes. You see, Princess."

"Ah, ah, ah. Call me Celestia now, We're equals now remember? Friends? Although I considered you a friend a long time ago."

"Yes, well, Celestia. Over the past few days, I haven't been feeling right."

"Is it a bad feeling?"

"Well, yes and no. I woke up a few days ago feeling really hot for some reason. My stomach felt uncomfortable and I thought I had a fever, until I noticed that I also felt...horny."

Celestia nodded. "Yes, yes. Continue."

"Right. Well, Despite all that, there was this feeling of...rightness in it. Like this was a good thing. I felt...comfortable. And then the day after that, I thought it had gotten worse."

"Worse, how, exactly?"

"Well the stomach pain was still there, but there were other things too. Like, my mind was clouded, my chest felt heavy, I was sweating from head to toe, and the feeling of comfort I had the day before was gone. That and...I was even more horny. Oh! And, I was acting strangely. Doing strange things."

"I see. When you say strange behavior, how do you mean?"

"Well, I was starting to notice things about myself that I hadn't before. Like how attractive I was to myself. Before now I had never noticed my own body in this way."

"About time you did. I've been telling you you were gorgeous for the longest time." Celestia commented, chuckling to herself.

Twilight on the other hand, did not laugh. "Oh come on, Princess! I'm serious!"

"Alright then. I'll forgive you for calling me by my title again, if you can tell me what's going on."

"Sorry, Celestia."

"Its fine, Twilight. Now continue."

"Yes! Well, Um...I...um..."

"Come one Twilight. You can tell me everything that's on your mind. You know I won't judge you for anything."

"Yes, Thank you, Celestia." Twilight gulped.

'Well, here goes nothing.' Twilight steeled herself and looked directly into her former teacher's eyes.

"Spike and I...had sex."

Celestia's chamber was silent. The tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Not that Celestia felt it, and if she had, she certainly didn't show it. As Twilight watched her, she calmly sipped her tea, as though Twilight hadn't said anything. Then, once she put the cup down, she wiped her mouth with a napkin held in her magic, and said,

"I see. So it's finally happened has it?"

Twilight was stunneed into silence. That is until she said, "WHAT?!"

Celestia looked confused. "What? Whatever is the matter Twilight? Is this not a good thing?"

"No! It's not! I just had sex with one of my best friends Celestia! I'm confused! I'm at a loss for what to do. I don't even know if everything will be the same after this..."

Celestia finished her tea and focused all her attention upon Twilight as she spoke her next words. "That is natural, Twilight. Expecially given that it is that time of year for you."

Now it was Twilight's turn to be confused. "What do you mean, Princess?"

"I mean, Twilight Sparkle, that you are experiencing a special moment in every alicorn's life. A time when they are at one with that which makes them special. Every alicorn experiences this, and I've been waiting for the moment when you would finally get to experience it yourself."

"You've been...waiting for this?"

"Yes, I have. You can't imagine how much it means to me that I get to watch your magic grow to new heights."

"My...magic?"

"Allow me to explain. It is a right of passage of sorts. You are aware that every alicorn, save for myself and Luna, control some form of abstract force, are you not?"

"Yes, I am aware."

"Good. That makes this easier."

"Makes what easier?"

"I control the sun, and Luna controls the moon, but our powers do not stop there. I gain more power when the sun is up, and Luna gains more when the moon is out, I can control the sun's output and affect the growth or otherwise of plants in the fields, and I can even burn the entirety of equestria too a crisp should I deem it necessary. Luna can control the moon and flood the entirety of equestria should she see fit to do so in my place. I can dry out a person's body with a single finger. My sister can even induce nightmares, or even make them a reality.We can even travel back and forth through time, but that comes with dire consequences that even we aren't arrogant enough not to fear

Celestia lowered her voice and spoke in a whisper as she said her next words. "And as an added bonus, we can tell time without clocks, or any time method"

"Cadence fosters love in ponies and helps it to grow. She can cause relationships to form with a flick of her hand, or cause them to fail with a single foot stomp." She can sew seeds of mistrust and jealousy, greed and anger across all of equestria in a single night, completely destroying it without having to lift a finger. Well, maybe one, but that one finger will control the flow of everyone's emotions from that point forward. But there is a very delicate balance that must be maintained in the realm of emotions, or she could potentially drive someone insane, or force them to kill themselves. She can sustain herself off of love alone. I think she has been doing that anyway, what with Shining armor and the baby and all. And before you ask, Twilight..."

Celestia stopped her explanation to prevent Twilight from asking the question she knew for a fact she was about to ask.

"No, she is not a changeling." Another whisper. "And I heard she's great in bed too."

Twilight sighed in relief and slight embarrassment as Celestia continued. "Oh how wonderful this is. I can't wait to see how your powers will manifest. I imagine they'll be similar to my sister's or Princess Cadence's."

How would you know, Prin- Um, Celestia?"

"I would know Twilight, Because you are the Princess of Friendship. Friendship is a powerful magic all in itself Twilight. Oh the possibilities. You could create and or rip apart any friendships you so wish. Make them stronger or weaker according to your will. The perfect tool for revenge. You could induce absolute loyalty in others, and create a veritable army of followers, ready and willing to follow your every command. You could gift someone with courage, or wisdom beyond their years, or give someone the tools they need to ruin someone else's life. You could enter daydreams and help people with their problems. Or turn them into something more...interesting. Cadence has more access to this powr of course, but you could even feel the various emotions of others and even hear their thoughts depending on how close you are to that person. But there is one great weakness that you could possess."

"And what is that princess?"

"For the Powers of the Princess of Friendship to work, she must have friends of her own. It is a countermeasure against the misuse of their powers."

"But then, what is the countermeasure against your powers, Celestia?"

"That...would be you, Twilight."

"Me?"

"Yes, you and all the other princesses could destroy us should we get out of hand." Celestia said tjhis as though it was the easiest thing in the world for Twilight to destroy her former teacher, should the need arise.

"Well this is all well and good, Princess, but what does all this have to do with Spike and I having sex?"

"Oh that? Simple. Until you adjust to your powers, you will feel a strong desire to be 'friendly' with all those close to you. It's sort of like a hyper-strong aphrodisiac created from your intense love for your friends. I know you've always wanted to have sex with them, Twilight. You just couldn't let yourself believe it because of how close you are. Its your bodies way of telling you to embrace those feelings."

"Oh really? Because I thought I was in love with Spike. He even took my virginity."

"Oh, really? Well, I can't say you didn't love him, and i'm sure he loves you, otherwise it wouldn't have happened, but you're going to need more than Spike to tide you over eventually. I guess your number one assistant is going to have to make room for a number two, and three, and possibly four! Oh! And nice going Spike! I've wanted to do that for years!"

All was quiet as the two digested what had just been said.

"Celestia, are you saying you've always wanted to fuck me?"

"Fuck is a strong word but, yes, essentially. I would always imagine us rutting like beasts in heat!"

"Okay, I think i'm going to go lay down when I get home." Said Twilight, stunned.

All Spike, who had been quiet for the longest time, could say was, "Thanks, I guess?"

"Hey wait, Twilight! Before you go." Celestia said, as Twilight was getting up. She turned around.

"Yes?"

"Wanna have a round in the sheets? I could show you why they call me sunbutt."

At that, surprisingly everyone laughed, and then Twilight said the one thing that no one ever thought she would say.

"Sure! Let's all fuck! It'll be a three way!"

A slamming sound could be heard as everyone turned to see that Luna had burst out of her own chambers, looking furious.

"Do you know , how long, I've had to listen to you three go on and on about sex and fucking?"

Twilight tried to save them, until Luna said, "And you didn't even invite me?"

A collective "Um..." sounded from everyone present. Luna smirked.

"Make it a four way."
