Author's Note

This chapter has much more of a loving theme and tone, but goes a lot farther into crazy town. I know it’s a very strange turn, but my intuition tells me that this is where the story goes. No one dies or is hurt in this one at all. (And in case you’re creeped out by me, I promise you I have never killed nor harmed anyone in real life.)

An Unusual Turn

Months had passed since the events at the schoolhouse, and Scootaloo tucked herself into bed for the night. During this time, her favorite thing to do was to lovingly remember Rainbow Dash and everything about her, the sexy nature of her death as plant food, and snuggle with her final pair of panties every night. Sometimes she would still dream of her and Dash would have a relaxing effect on her mind. She breathed softly and settled herself to sleep.

In the middle of the night, she drifted awake and noticed someone lightly walking into her room. The figure sat down on the edge of her bed, to her left. It felt like Rainbow Dash’s presence. Careful not to jostle herself awake, Scootaloo reached out a hoof slowly towards the figure. “Rainbow?” she asked softly.

The figure said nothing, but moved her left hand slowly underneath her hoof. Scootaloo could feel the palms of her hand, noting that they felt real, like tangible flesh. “Rainbow,” she whispered. “It’s you. You’re here.”

Scootaloo felt the palms of her hands for a little while longer, before the figure got up and left. In the aftermath of this, she was intrigued as to what the experience was. If it really was her, then she pondered why she would come to the person most responsible for her death. Was it possible she could be upset and seeking some sort of retribution? But it didn’t feel like that, her presence was calm and gentle. So, Scootaloo was unsure, but feeling more open to connection.

In the following month, the figure came to her about five times in the middle of the night, with the same ritual. Scootaloo was beginning to look forward to her visits, getting increasingly excited about what it could mean. She tried to talk to her and was always met with loving silence.

During one of the visits, Scootaloo felt like a song was playing in her head, specifically Soul Sister with an emphasis on the lyrics “like a virgin, you’re Madonna, and I’m always gonna wanna blow your mind.” Scootaloo began to wonder what experience she was a virgin to exactly. Was her mind going to be blown by something of a spiritual nature? Was it like an orgasm she had never before experienced? Scootaloo pondered this in anticipation, not knowing what to expect.

On a very storm night, Scootaloo drifted off to sleep, having one of the deepest dreams she’d ever had. Images and words played in her mind about someone being there for her. After a little while, Scootaloo opened her eyes awake, lying on her side. She noticed it was still storming outside. What got her attention more was that she was being spooned. There was an arm around her in a snug embrace and the feeling of breathing coming from behind her.

Scootaloo smiled widely as her heart started to get excited and her mind did not know what to do. She did not want to jostle or interrupt anything since that might make the figure want to leave. So, she just laid there being spooned, listening to the figure’s soft inhales and exhales. This did not seem to end for over five minutes and her side was getting uncomfortable. She was becoming desperate to turn herself, so finally she slipped away from the arm, flicked on a small lamp near her bed, and looked directly at her.

Scootaloo’s jaw went slack as she let out a small gasp. “Rainbow?” she asked.

“Hey, squirt,” she said softly. She straightened herself up to a sitting position on the bed, dressed in her normal clothes she used to wear when she was alive.

Scootaloo’s eyes widened as excitement seeped into her heart. “I can’t believe it. Are… are you going to stay?”

“Yes, I’m staying.”

Scootaloo felt joyous to hear this. “But I thought you died?”

“Dying is an experience just like eating a hot dog, kid.”

“But… I thought you might be upset over the fact that you died?”

Rainbow only laughed. “What facts? What’s there to be upset about when you know that death is not real?”

“Then you’re not mad at me for what I did to you?”

“Let’s get one thing straight. You were magnificent. You were in your element, your excitement, your passion. That was your experience.”

“But… we pushed you to your breaking point… we…”

Rainbow chuckled. “There are no breaking points, squirt. The only thing beyond your breaking point is more of yourself.”

Scootaloo did not know what to say. “So that means… that… you’re alive?”

“Well I’m not dead, kiddo. You've felt the palms of my hands.”

“And Cheerilee?”

“She enjoyed her after-death experience beyond description and she eventually decided to cool off, or perhaps I should say, transition to experiences that are of another nature. At any rate, she still talks about it like it was the greatest thing ever. She’s having a lot of sex in the afterlife and it’s the good stuff.”

“Um…” Scoots hesitated. “Will I… get to experience that too one day?”

“Well obviously,” giggled Rainbow Dash, giving her shoulder a light punch. “When you see what is out there, you will weep at the beauty of it, because you will think you’re not worthy. That’s when we might say you’ll no longer be a virgin to spiritual experiences. There will always be brand-new experiences to be excited about and choose through your own free will. There will be no more having to get permission for anything anymore; you will simply be whatever you want to be forever. This will involve your whole being, not a thinking mind that is limited to what it can imagine. And you will be beauty beyond anything you could ever measure.”

Scootaloo cheered. “Wow, I love to hear the good news! Speaking of which, how are you here right now telling me it?”

“That’s what you wanted. Is there another reason?”

“Wow… but I…”

“Listen squirt, I know you’re excited, but we have all the time in the world to talk about this. Let’s go back to sleep for now.”

Scootaloo nodded. “Oh… okay.” They snuggled up, knowing that that was all they wanted in the world, and drifted off.

The next morning, Scootaloo awoke to find that her companion was still with her, who also opened her eyes and snuggled in closer.

Scoots did not know why, but Rainbow’s breaths seemed to have an effect on her, as if calm, gentle energy was inhaled and exhaled, and soothed her brain in a way she had never before experienced. She began to notice that Rainbow was purposefully trying to synchronize their breaths. After a minute of this, Scootaloo suddenly quickened her breath to mess her up. They both burst out laughing and Scootaloo’s brain felt a little funny.

Scoots got out of bed and walked to the door. “Hey Rainbow, I betcha can’t catch me!” She ran quickly out of the door and shut it behind her, waiting to see if a physical obstruction would stop her.

Rainbow stuck her head through the door and then walked straight through it. “Yeah, I can do that.”

Scootaloo squee’d and ran to the kitchen. She remembered that she just needed to wash the dishes real quick before she would be able to go outside to play. Her parents were around, and she had to calm down around them. As she started washing the dishes, she jumped as she felt her hind legs being touched by Rainbow Dash. Scoots tried to focus on the cleaning while her flanks and upper thighs were frisked and prodded in a way that tickled her.

“Stop that,” she said through clinched teeth, but she wouldn’t stop, so she giggled as lightly as she could. She managed to finish the dishes without attracting anyone’s attention, and then she was off to be outside. She decided to walk in the direction of a place to eat breakfast.

As they walked, it was amazing to see Rainbow standing in the light. Scoots asked, “No one else can see you right?”

“I very much doubt that. You pretty much have me all to yourself. Isn’t that wonderful?”

“Yeah, but can’t you tell me more about how it works?” she inquired.

Rainbow considered. “Well, it’s like you’re tuning into my frequency like a radio station. Someone else could theoretically tune into the same channel, but that’s very unlikely if it’s not relevant.”

“Oh, that makes sense. So, are you always gonna stick around then?”

“That’s the plan. I can still leave whenever I want to, to go play with other friends in my galactic and soul family. When you are busy with something else, I might observe you or I might leave, but I will still know what you were up to. And whenever you check for me to see if I’m around, you’ll find me. It doesn’t really follow the logic of linear time like you’re used to. You’ll get used to it.”

“Is there anyone else other than you that might visit me?”

“You’ll probably see that from time to time, but I’m guessing you’re primarily interested in me and that’s fine. What you need to know is that I’m in your inner circle from now on. The inner circle includes any spirit guides and higher aspects of your consciousness that are involved in your life. When I physically died, I voluntarily chose to enter into your inner circle because we had a great potential for connection.”

“Did we know each other before this life?”

“Well of course,” nodded Rainbow. “But that’s not important now. Let’s go ahead and find this restaurant. I don’t have to eat of course, but I can share some of your physical sensations.”

They walked in silence for a moment.

“Just one more thing,” Scootaloo asked sheepishly. “Can we have sex?”

“I like sex,” said Rainbow smiling.

“So that’s a yes?” exclaimed Scootaloo.

“C’mon kid, I said I was going to blow your mind.”

“Yay!” she cheered. “But, what about all my fetishes and stuff?”

“Yeah, they’re all adorable to me, even the way you are in love with my underwear. Since I don’t really have fear, I’m willing to do whatever I want with you that you want. Taboo things add to sex so well because of the liberating nature of sex. It lowers the walls so that everyone can get their freak on and bring their fun to the experience. But, we’ll save that for tonight.”

“I love you so much, Rainbow Dash!” Scootaloo exclaimed, jumping up and down.

“I’m very fond of you too, squirt.”

And with that, Scootaloo went on to get her daffodil sandwich at an outdoor café, while Rainbow Dash rubbed circles on her tummy while she ate.
