Heat of the Dragon Lord

On the outskirts of Equestria, in the east, was a barren and desolate land that no pony dared to go without a very good reason. This was the Dragonlands, home to the vast majority of dragons in Equestria.

It was a rocky and mountainous region devoid of nearly all plant life and very few creatures. The only things that were in an abundance here were dragons and their gemstones. They greedily kept their treasures deep within caves on the sides of the mountains. The deeper into the Dragonlands one went, the more dragons resided with even greater hoards of treasure and in the center of all this was a castle carved out of the largest mountain. This was the home of the Dragon Lord, the dragon who ruled and could command any and all of the other dragons. The current Dragon Lord’s name was Ember. She was a small blue dragon with red eyes and curved horns on the sides of her head and sharp blue spikes that ran down her back and a small pair of blue wings.

Princess Celestia, had long since lowered the moon and her younger sister, Princess Luna had raised a crescent moon for all those living in Equestria to sleep under including the dragons. They were all nestled close to their treasures, dreaming of all the treasures they would add to their horde the next day. Dragon Lord Ember was asleep too or at least she was attempting to as she tossed and turned unable to become at ease. Her body was sweating profusely and she was even mumbling words in her sleep. “It’s time,” she moaned before heavy pants. “It’s time. It’s time.” Her claws scratched and scraped at her scales all over her body as she groaned even louder. When they were on her chest and atop her breasts, she couldn’t help squeeze them and moan feeling a tenderness to them that had never been there before. Her claws were barely big enough to contain them and as she clenched down tighter she cried out orgasmically before letting go. “It’s time! It’s time!” Panting even harder like she couldn’t catch her breath, her claws made their way lower down her body to her crotch. Two of her claws slipped in passed the lips of her pussy and she started to finger herself. “Oh!” she moaned louder still feeling the euphoria as she pleasured her vagina faster and faster. “It’s time! It’s time!” Her juices leaked out the more she went at it and her body was sweating even more. “It’s time!!! It’s time!!!” She shouted and though she was too far away for any other dragon to hear her normally they all suddenly awoke and began to roar, growl and moan just as loud, filling the Dragonlands with noise. Bats hidden in the cave rooftops retreated in fright at the sudden commotion and then soon after, the caves started to leak light from their mouths. The scales on all the dragons began to glow, itch, and burn. It was a sign the Dragon Lord was summoning them.

“It’s time!!! It’s time!!!” cried Ember still on the verge of awakening. She continued to toss and turn wildly until finally opened her eyes. “Spike!”

“Wah!” came a cry that startled Princess Twilight Sparkle from her sleep. She was a purple Alicorn, a pony with both wings and a horn. Her purple were eyes, as was her mane and tail. The two later both also had a pink streak in them. Her cutie mark was of a pink star with five smaller white stars around it.

“Spike?” she yawned. “Is that you?”

“Woah!” he shouted loudly and fully awoke Twilight who leapt out of bed and galloped down to his room.

“What’s going on?” asked Starlight Glimmer who had also been woken by Spike’s outbursts. She was a pink unicorn with purple eyes. Her mane and tail were also purple and similar to Twilight, they had a light blue streak in them. Her cutie mark had a purple star on it with a light blue swirl over top of it.

“Something is wrong with Spike,” Twilight answered and Starlight joined Twilight in racing to Spike’s room. “Spike! Are you okay?”

“T-Twilight!” he called from the other side of the doors to his room. “Please! Please don’t come in here!”

“Why?” she asked stopping in front of the doors. “What’s going on in there?”

“Uh,” Spike hesitated for a moment. “I just had a bad dream is all.” He let out a nervous chuckle. “No need to come in. J-just go back to bed.”

“I just want to check on you real quick,” she said.

“There’s no need to,” begged Spike. “Just go away!”

“It sounds like there’s something in there that he doesn’t want us to see,” Starlight commented. “Usually when he has a nightmare he’s the one who runs to your room in a panic.”

“I know,” answered Twilight, her horn glowing as she magicked the door to Spike’s room. “Spike, I’m coming in!” With magic, she forced the door open.

“T-Twilight! Starlight!” Spike greeted them nervously hugging his blanket tightly over his body. He was a purple dragon with green eyes and green, curved spiked going from the top of his head running down is back to his tail. While several years ago he used to be smaller than Twilight or any of the ponies, he had gone through a lot of growth over the years and had become significantly taller than an average stallion. He had also grown out of his baby fat and gained a slightly muscular build, though compared to most dragons he was still smaller and weaker. He was also the only dragon around that lacked a set of wings. Like all the dragons in the Dragon Lands, his scales were also aglow and he struggled to keep his blanket covering him and scratching his burning scales. “I told you I’m fine.”

“But you’re glowing,” Twilight pointed out. “That means that the Dragon Lord is summoning all the dragons in Equestria.”

“Kind of a weird hour to do something like that,” Starlight commented. “It’s the middle of the night. Couldn’t this wait till morning?”

“My thoughts exactly,” agreed Spike. “Why don’t we all just get some sleep and we can deal with this in the morning?”

“But doesn’t the summons burn and itch like crazy?” asked Twilight seeing Spike fail to act like it didn’t bother him.

“A little, but I’ve been summoned by Ember lots of times before and I’m used to it,” he explained.

“But you are still acting strange,” Starlight noticed. “You’re hiding something under that blanket.”

“I don’t know what you are talking about,” he stated, but from how profusely he was sweating it only made him more suspect.

Using her magic, Starlight attempted to pulled the blanket from Spike, but he clung to it tightly. Twilight then used her magic on Spike to help Starlight to wrench him from his cover and with enough effort they succeeded, unintentionally shredding his blanket as he desperately clung to it with his claws. “Oopsie,” the said not meaning for that to happen, but their attention changed back to Spike when they discovered what he had been hiding with a bit of shock and embarrassment.

“D-don’t look!” cried Spike attempted to cover over his cum-covered crotch. There was so much that it was all over his cock, on his waist front and oozing down his legs. There was a lot more also on his blanket.

“Oh, Spike,” Twilight spoke in the calmest voice she could manage though the look on her face showed that this wasn’t something she had been prepared for. Still, she tried her best to tactfully handle the situation. “This is nothing to be ashamed about. It’s a natural part of growing up and everyone is bound to have a wet dream at some point in their life. It’s no big deal.”

“But it was so weird,” he explained feeling more at liberty to confide in them now that he had been exposed. “I was having this dream about Ember and it was like she was calling out to me saying ‘it’s time’ over and over. I woke up screaming and the next thing I knew I had cummed in my bed. That’s when I screamed again. I didn’t even know that I was glowing till you mentioned it to me.”

“Well, let’s get you cleaned up,” Twilight said, leading Spike to the bathroom. Spike went in alone and closed the door before he started running the water.

“It is kind of strange that this happened at the same time that he got a summons from the Dragon Lord,” commented Starlight. “Do you think there’s a connection?”

“I suppose it is possible,” agreed Twilight. “But we won’t know for certain until we find out why Spike was summoned in the first place. I’d hate to write a letter to the her at this time of night, but if Ember summoned Spike at this hour then she must be awake as well and I can just send her a scroll just like how Spike can receive them from Celestia.”

“Looks like you might not need to bother,” replied Starlight as she spotted a twin trail of smoke floating through the air towards Twilight. Then out of the two trails of smoke appeared two scrolls, one written for Spike and the second for Twilight.

“Seems Ember wanted to make sure we were up to speed,” figured Twilight. “Hey, Spike. We got some letters from Ember. You almost done in there?”

“Uh, all clean,” Spike said bashfully coming out. He took the letter written for him and started to read it. Immediately, Spike started to blush even more than he had earlier and trembled a bit getting weak in the knees and sweating.

“Is something the matter?” wondered Twilight. “What’s it say?”

“Its, uh, private,” stuttered Spike. “But it basically says I need to get over to the Dragonlands right away so I better get to packing.” Hurrying back to his room, Spike slammed the door and breathed heavily as he went to read the letter once more.

Dear Spike,
By the time you have gotten this I suspect you have already had a rather rude awakening. I would like to apologize for any embarrassment that might have caused since that was my fault. You see, while I have helped you and Twilight learn a great deal about your dragon heritage, there was one thing in particular I have neglected to mention, the Dragon Mating Season.

It is an event that occurs when the Dragon Lord’s body is in heat. For my father, Torch, the previous Dragon Lord, it occurred much, much later in his rule like it does for most Dragon Lords. For it to happen now, after only seven years is unprecedented, but I believe I may know the reason. While the Dragon Mating Season relies mostly on the biology of the Dragon Lord, should they find someone they fall in love with and yearn to mate with, that can hasten this.

For the last seven years, we have worked together with Princess Twilight in trying to bridge the gap between dragons and ponies with varying successes. In that time, we have grown closer and I have seen you go from an odd little shrimp, into a strong and noble dragon. I must confess that I have been feeling a strong connection to you for a while now and with the mating season about to begin I am now convinced about it.

While the Dragon Mating Season is meant to allow dragons to breed, it is also the time for the Dragonlord to choose a mate to bear a prince or princess. Dragons still don’t party or hold hands and sing songs like ponies do, but for dragons this is a big deal and this is why I ask that you, Spike, please come meet me in the Dragonlands, in the place that we first met. Please come and be my mate.

Ember

P.S.
The glowing, burning, and itching, won’t go away till you come, so it isn’t like you can ignore the call of the Dragon Lord, however, Rarity showed me some romance novels a while back and I thought I’d try make this whole thing more romantic. I’m not sure if it is working. Just please destroy this note after you have read it and don’t speak to anyone about it pony or dragon or whatever. If you do, I’ll kill you.

“I can’t believe she wants me to be her mate,” Spike panted with his heart racing excitedly. “I always did have feelings for her since we first met, but I didn’t know if dragons experienced love if they didn’t even have friendship.” Looking down at the post script once more, Spike chuckled. “She might be in heat, but at least she’s still the same old ember.” Taking a deep breath, Spike blew green flames from his maw to destroy the letter as he was instructed, but instead it turned to smoke that made its way to Celestia. Eyes wide and seeing his mistake, Spike tried to retrieve the smoke, but it slipped past his claws and out the window of the castle. “WHY!!!” he cried loudly waking up everyone in Ponyville.

“Uh, so what does your letter say?” asked Starlight trying to ignore Spike’s latest cry.

“This is so unbelievable!” exclaimed Twilight. “I have to prepare! I’ll need lots of scrolls and quills. And I should call the girls. We’ll need all the help we can get!”

“Prepare?” asked Starlight. “For the dragon summons? I understand Spike needing to get ready, but can’t we at least wait till morning?”

“No!” answered Twilight leaving the scroll for Starlight to read. “This is a once in a lifetime event. We can’t afford to waste even a second!”

“Just what is written here that is making everyone act so crazy?” wondered Starlight as she read the letter.

Dear Twilight,

By the time you get this I’m sure that you have learned that Spike has been summoned by me to come to the Dragon Lands. This letter is to inform you NOT TO GET INVOLVED! This is the Dragon Mating Season and it is much too dangerous for ponies to be around dragons even more so than usual. During this time, dragons will be overcome with sexual lust and behave more aggressive and desire driven than normal. Even Spike and I will be influenced by our hormones and even we may pose a threat. If you were to come, there is no way I could guarantee your safety, which is why I am advising you to stay out of it.

With all that said and knowing you all too well, you better be as discreet as possible. And please, no photographs.

Dragon Lord Ember

“That answers that question,” yawned Starlight starting to get sleepy again. “And now I get the feeling I should have just stayed in bed.”

“Ok, this should be enough scrolls and quills,” cheered Twilight energetically as she hurried back over to Starlight wearing a saddlebag stuffed full of quills and parchment. She was hovering another equally stuffed saddlebag she dropped onto Starlight who nearly collapsed from the sudden weight placed on her back, but managed to remain on her hooves. “We’ll split up. I’ll get Rainbow Dash and Applejack. You get Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie and we’ll meet up at Rarity’s so we can all get costumes to blend in when we get to the Dragon Lands. Then we’ll be able to take notes and I’ll be able to write another book on dragons. Oh, this is so exciting! Are you as excited as I am?”

“Yup,” sighed Starlight. “I should have just stayed in bed.”

Celestia had already raised the sun high by the time Spike managed to reach the Dragon Lands and make his way to the gathering grounds. The Dragon Lord’s summons had worn off shortly after he arrived despite Ember still being nowhere in sight. “She has to be around here somewhere,” pondered Spike. “She lives here so there’s no way I could have arrived first.

As he searched, Spike began to recall the first time he had received the calling from the Dragon Lord. It was when the previous Dragon Lord, Torch, decided it was time to choose his successor by competing in a trial known as the Gauntlet of Fire. It had been one of the most dangerous things he had ever had to do, but it had also been one of the courageous and memorable things he had to do too. It was where he first met Ember and where he had triumphed over the other dragons to win the gauntlet before he chose to give the title of Dragon Lord to Ember in good faith and friendship.

Since then, he had been back many times after whenever Ember did a summons. However, this time he could sense things were far different than they usually were. The smell of lust was thick in the air coming from the many other dragons already gathered around, himself included. The musk in the air seemed to further stimulate everyone’s hormones as male dragon’s were walking around with their cocks out on full display and letting them bounce about as they attempted to advertise themselves to the others. He saw some even pressing their dragonhoods against one another attempting to see who was bigger if even by the slightest margin.

The female dragons were hardly any better doing what they could to get noticed by anyone and everyone, groping their breasts and spreading their legs wide as possible. Anything to draw in males and there were very few that didn’t have a crowd gathered around to watch the show before moving on to see who else was strutting their stuff. Spike couldn’t help being turned on too, but kept his focus on finding Ember. He only hoped his balls didn’t empty before he found her by how much pre had been leaking out of his stiffy since he arrived.

Spike had never seen such shameless behavior in Ponyville and felt as out of place here as he often did when he participated with the dragons in most of their activities. “I guess dragons don’t need love to find their very special somepony, or rather, their very special somedragon. But that’s fine with me. I am well beyond doubting myself for not being a typical dragon.”

“Well, well,” rang an obnoxious voice that Spike knew all too well. “If it isn’t the pony in dragon scales, little Spikey Wikey.”

“Hello, Garble,” Spike replied with little enthusiasm. Garble was a large red dragon with beady black eyes and orange spikes going down his back. He had thick bushy eyebrows and large, teeth with the top ones visible even with his mouth closed. His wings had tears and holes in them, but were still capable of flight. Ever since they first met, Garble had always been much taller and stronger than Spike and though Spike managed to catch up a bit in both regards over the years, Garble had managed to grow a few feet taller and stronger in that time too. His body was solid as a rocky with intimidating muscles all over, including a six pack. His own dick was out on full display like all the other male dragons and Spike didn’t need to do a comparison to see that Garble was probably the biggest around by a decent margin and Spike was in the middle of the lower tier. The only thing that he didn’t seem to improve the least bit in all these years was his attitude. “I figured you’d pop up before long with your usual putdowns.”

“What can I say?” he scoffed. “Thanks to you and those pony pals of yours more and more dragons around here just reek of that love and friendship crap. I had hoped that the mating season wouldn’t be messed with either, but seeing that you’re here I can only guess you brought some pony pussy to fuck cause no real dragon here would go for that little pony prick of yours.” He gave a mean laugh and flicked a claw at Spikes dick making Spike fume with anger and nearly lose his cool.

“First off,” Spike said jabbing Garble with a claw in his chiseled chest. “I came here by myself so you don’t have anything to complain about. Secondly, the mating season wouldn’t be happening now if it wasn’t for me. After all, who do you think it was that Dragon Lord Ember chose to be her mate?”

“You?” asked Garble looking ready to bust a gut laughing. “You might have filled her head with all that girly pony nonsense, but she would never choose a shrimp with an even shrimpier dink when she has someone like me around. Cause the Dragon Lord doesn’t choose a mate based on who is the most pathetic. They choose based on the biggest and that’s me in all regards.”

“You wanna make a bet then?” asked Spike deciding to cut Garble down to size. “How about, if Ember chooses you then I’ll give you every last gem I have. And if she chooses me then I get all of yours.”

“Why would I bet all mine for, what, three measly gems?” asked Garble snorting and snickering.

“Oh, I’ve got plenty,” Spike assured him. “But I can understand why you’d say that. You are too afraid to take the bet.”

“Me? Afraid?!?” Garble growled falling for Spike’s taunt. “Fine! You’re on! If you win you can have all my gems and I’ll even let you fuck my ass!”

“Uh, I’ll gladly take the gems, but you can keep your ass,” Spike said feeling a bit awkward after hearing that.

“You seriously don’t know anything,” groaned Garble. “Dragon’s don’t have sex just to mate. In fact, dragons are only fertile when the Dragon Lord starts the mating season. The rest of the time we use it as an assertion of power. You either fuck or get fucked and I have shoved my mighty rod into the pussy or tailhole of just about every dragon here with the only exceptions being you and Ember meanwhile I haven’t been penetrated even once. So with this bet I’ll have gotten everyone.”

“So, if I win then I’ll be the top dragon around here,” concluded Spike. “Ok, it’s a bet.”

“You mean a sure thing,” cackled Garble. “I didn’t even want to waste my time on your ass, but now that I think about it, hearing you cry like a baby while my monster dick tears you in half would be too much fun to pass up on.

“Oh!” called Ember flying down to Spike and Garble. “There you are. I was getting worried I wouldn’t find you.”

“Well, here I am,” replied Garble. “The mate you’ve been lusting for since you became Dragon Lord.”

“Uh, I wasn’t looking for you,” Ember replied. “Didn’t Spike tell you I picked him to be my mate.”

“Wait! He is!” cried Garble feeling his world crumble and then he turned his anger on Spike. “You tricked me! You made me bet knowing she picked you!”

“I did tell you, but you didn’t believe me,” Spike reminded him with a rather smug look on his face. “So I’ll be around later for those gems of yours. Oh, and I’ll make sure to save you plenty of time to give that ass of yours the pounding it’s been missing out on.”

“Oh, man,” whimpered Garble and recalling how sore dragons were after he gave them their first pounding and rubbed his rear.

“So, what was that all about?” asked Ember. “Garble being Garble?”

“Yeah, but I think he just learned an important lesson that even if you’re the best fisherman with the best bait it doesn’t mean anything if the fish just aren’t interested in biting,” Spike chuckled starting to really enjoy himself.

“Ugh, it’s so hot in here,” complained Rainbow Dash, a blue pegasus with with pink eyes, a rainbow mane and tail and a cutie mark of storm cloud and a lightning bolt. She along with Twilight, Starlight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy were all hidden in the middle of where all the dragons had gathered wearing disguises that resembled rocks to hide in plain sight. While the dragons were distracted with their own horniness they had managed to slowly make their way in and were now in position to watch it all unfold. “I thought we were cool with the dragons now, so we didn’t need to wear disguises.”

“I already told you,” Twilight reminded her. “The dragons are going to be controlled by their hormones. It’d be dangerous for us to be out in the open which is why we must remain hidden.”

“Dangerous,” whimpered Fluttershy shaking so much she almost gave herself away. Fluttershy was a yellow pegasus with blue eyes, and a pink mane and tail. Her cutie mark was butterflies. “Are you sure this is such a good idea for us to be here? I am friends with a lot of animals, but when they are in heat there is no telling how they might act to anyone who gets too close to them.”

“As long as we remain calm we’ll be fine,” promised Twilight. “And if we do get in danger Starlight and I will be ready to send us all back home in an instant.”

“Besides, why would you want to leave now?” asked Pinkie Pike, a pink pony with blue eyes, a curly pink mane and tail, and balloons for her cutie mark. “The party hasn’t even started yet and all these dragons look so excited for it. And seeing them so excited makes me excited and it makes me want to try and throw a party like this when we get back.”

“I don’t think Ponyville is ready for this kind of party,” Starlight commented and panting as she found it hot and hard to breathe as much as all the others.

“Is it just me or has it just been getting hotter and hotter since we got here?” asked Applejack an orange pony with freckles on her face, blond hair and a tail, green eyes, and three red apples for her cutie mark. She also had on her trademark hat. “Cause I’m sweating more than a hog at harvest time.”

“It’s not just you,” explained Twilight checking on a thermometer. The mercury inside it was slowly, but noticeably rising up. “It was around 70 degrees around the time we got here, but now it’s nearly 90 and rising. This is so incredible!”

“Shh!” the other ponies hushed her.

“Sorry,” Twilight apologized more quietly.

“How is that incredible?” asked Rarity, a white pony with a well-styled, purple mane and tail. Her eyes were blue and she had a cutie mark of diamonds. “I don’t like to sweat unless we’re at the spa and I see no towels, massage ponies, or scented baths.”

“There’s some mud over there,” pointed Pinkie.

“Yeah, but that mud’s not imported,” Rarity told her.

“Please everyone,” Twilight said steering the conversation back to the research. “The temperature has been rising bit by bit as more dragons arrive. It seems that this mating lust they have is raising up their body temperature and for creatures capable of breathing fire it is a significant increase. And with so many gathered it is even enough to raise the temperature of the environment.”

“Kind of gives new meaning to being in heat,” joked Starlight. “But in all seriousness, how hot is it going to get?”

“I’m not sure, but the temperature is nearly 100 degrees now,” Twilight explained. “It’s hard not to sweat now. I just hope that the dragons don’t pick up our scent.”

“They seem too busy to even care,” observed Rarity. “And I doubt they’d notice the smell of a few sweaty ponies when there are a hundred dragons reeking of perspiration. Oh, this must be what a hoofball team’s laundry must smell like.”

“That isn’t sweat you’re smelling,” Twilight corrected. “Well, there is the smell of sweat mixed in, but the dragons’ sex glands are giving off pheromones to help make them more alluring. It’s easy to see this whole thing turning into one massive orgy once things get started. I’m a little amazed they haven’t started already, Dragon Lord or not.”

“Uh, about these pheromones,” Fluttershy wondered trying to cover her muzzle. “They won’t have an effect on us, will they?”

“I suppose it is possible if we let our guard down and give in to temptation,” admitted Twilight. “But so long as we keep our wits I see it not being a problem.”

“You know,” commented Rarity looking out at the dragons with a dreamy look on her face. “When I take a closer look at them, some of these dragons do have a very sexy appeal to them. So strong and built. Not to mention, they seem to have equipment that would put a few stallions I know to shame.”

“Looks like we might be at more risk than you thought,” Rainbow Dash observed seeing Rarity starting to get lost in the lust. Instinctively, she started to lift up her disguise and make her way to the dragons.

“Rarity, get ahold of yourself,” Starlight whispered to her and used her magic to quickly cover her with her disguise before any of the dragons noticed.

“Huh? Wha?” Rarity replied coming to her senses. “Did something happen?”

“You were about to run out there and join in on the mating,” Twilight told her concerned. “Maybe I should send you home if you are having trouble controlling yourself.”

“N-no,” Rarity replied. “I’m fine now.”

“Are you sure?” asked Applejack. “We will get into a heap of trouble if we’re discovered.”

“I assure you,” Rarity stated quite adamantly. “As a lady I will remain calm and composed throughout.”

Sighing, Twilight decided to give her the benefit of the doubt and then returned to her research. With a quill floating with magic, she started to write down notes. “The mating should be starting soon so we better be fully prepared to write down all we can. And as long as we focus on research we shouldn’t be affected by the dragon pheromones ourselves. Everyone got that?”

“Uh, huh,” they replied rather unsure if they could be as into research as Twilight to keep themselves from getting aroused. Already they were all unable to deny how much in heat they themselves felt. Their hearts were racing and their vaginas felt moist and sensitive. They did their best to keep from leaking, but they desperately craved release and that desire only increased each time they got another whiff of the dragon lust. Even Twilight could barely keep focus on her work. Her quill writing, though it had started out neat was quickly getting sloppy and full of mistakes. Her sentence structure was also become less refined and was quickly devolving into fragmented sentences that couldn’t even stay in a straight line. She had also started doodling pictures of cocks on the paper every time she paused to think of what to write next.

“I- I- j-just have to focus on my research and I’ll be fine,” Twilight told to herself, her hooves finding their way down to her crotch to rub it. She was amazed how quickly her body had reacted to the pheromones and wanted to take note of it, but all she managed to write down on her notes was, “So horny… Wanna fuck!”

“What’s the matter, Spike?” Ember asked seeing him smiling nervously and keeping his crotch hidden behind his legs. They were sitting atop a large flat stone that was a couple levels higher than where the other dragons were. Spike looked around and in all directions they were surrounded by dragons growing impatient to start and looking towards the two of them for the go ahead. As Spike had expected, and only adding to his nerves, the Dragon Lord and her chosen mate, they were in the center of it all.

However, that was only half of what was intimidating Spike. Looking at Ember he felt like he was seeing her in a whole new light. He noticed her breasts that looks first yet temptingly squeezable. Clenching his claws, he wondered if his hands were wven big enough to grope them properly. Next, looking down, her vagina had been moist and ready since she had arrived and leaked some of her sex juices on the rock where she sat. Looking at his friend, he saw a young dragoness in her prime and in heat while all her desire was aimed at him. Taking all this in, Spike doubted he was ready or worthy for what he was tasked to do.

“Spike?” called Ember again in the friendliest voice she could managed as she crawled closer to him.

As she approached, it only made Spike’s tension worse. He looked at her, but all he could focus on were her breasts. He had to think of something to say to her now. His lips quivered as he tried to speak and prayed it wouldn’t be stupid whatever came out. “N-Nice boobs,” he finally uttered and quickly facepalmed. “No, I didn’t mean that. I mean they are nice, but have they always been so big? Urgh!” Spike tugged his ears in frustration. “Why can’t I say anything right?”

“They are a bit bigger,” she answered casually as she caressed them. “Ususlly I could cover them almost completely with my claws, but look at them now. And they are supposed to get even larger in the months to come. I’ll probably look ridiculous then. You probably think I look ridiculous now.”

“That’s not true,” retorted Spike. “I think you look amazing and I’m really glad you chose me to be your mate.”

“That’s better,” Ember told Spike as she sat facing him much closer now and could see he looked a little calmer, at least enough to converse with her again.

“I guess I’m just a little nervous,” he admitted. “This is going to be… my first time… ever, you know, doing it with someone else… ever.”

“Oh, you mean you’ve never done it with any other dragons or even with any ponies?”

“N-Never,” Spike answered suddenly feeling ashamed. “I never really had anyone to teach me about it. Well, Twilight tried to help me, but that turned into a research project and to make a long story short, I developed an acute fear to bananas. After that, I pretty much just took care of it myself once or twice a week, in my room, at night, after I made sure Twilight was already fast asleep.” Spike paused after hearing what he just said and buried his face in his claws. “Oh, Celestia! D-did I just tell you that now? I’m sorry. I must sound like such a dork.”

“Relax, Spike,” assured Ember smiling and placing her claws on his shoulder. “If there’s anyone who understands what you’re feeling right now, it’s me.”

“Y-You?” Spike stuttered in shock. “You are too? But- But how? You are so brave and strong not to mention you are the Dragon Lord and were the daughter of the previous one, a princess. How could you of all dragons still be a virgin?”

“Because I was the princess of the Dragon Lord all my life,” she explained. “It wasn’t that there was any rule that I couldn’t have sex with other dragons, but my dad was just too scary for other dragons to even think of attempting something. They were probably right to avoid me. I’m sure my dad would have eaten them or something.”

“What about when you became the Dragon Lord?” questioned Spike. “He wouldn’t have been able to do anything if you gave him a command.”

“The Dragon Lord is not allowed to have sex till the dragon mating when I experience it with my chosen mate. I don’t know how strict that rule is, but I’m certain that more of it still had to do with how big and scary my dad is.”

“Yeah, uh, speaking about, Torch, your dad,” Spike brought up nervously. “Where is he today, anyway?”

“I ordered him to stay home,” Ember answered. “So you’ll have nothing to worry about. So, just try and relax and go with the flow of things.”

“Nothing to worry about?” chuckled Spike sweating and trembling. “Your dad might not be here, but we’ve got every other dragon in Equestria looking our way right now. That’s more than a little pressure.”

“Just ignore them,” she encouraged Spike. “Once things get started they’ll be too wrapped up in their own mating to give us a second glance. Now, how about we just start things over?”

“Uh, alright,” agreed Spike as he tried to think of what he wanted to say to start things off. “Uh, hi, I’m Spike and you are?” There was a pause between them and Spike’s face turned a deep magenta. “Uh, too literal?”

“Heheh, usually I can barely stand adorable things, but you, Spike, are the exception,” Ember told him as she approached him on all fours. Spike couldn’t help but stare at her body as she swayed enticingly closer, her breasts in reach like forbidden fruit tempting him to grab at them. With him distracted, Ember was able to move his legs out of the way and see his hidden dragonhood and smiled. “Cute.”

“C-Cute?” blushed Spike, steam seeping from his nostrils as he felt his body temperature rise another twenty degrees. “D-Dragon’s aren’t supposed to be cute.”

“Heheh,” chuckled Ember fondling his package teasingly before she pinned him down and buried his muzzle with her breasts. “Just breathe deep. Inhale the pheromones in the air and my scent. That should help to take the edge off.”

Unable to breathe from his mouth, Spike had no choice but to comply and took in long deep breaths through his nose. He didn’t feel any different at first, but after a few inhales his heart rate increased and his cock twitched. His shaking and nervousness vanished like they were never there in the first place and his fear of bananas seemed to vanish as well. He looked up at Ember, a look of pure infatuation in his eyes.

“Ember,” he moaned with bliss and continued to breathe the scent in deeper and deeper as he pushed his face against her busty chest more. Ember watched as Spike let lust take him. His cock was twitching eagerly and he was emitting his own pheromones too.

“Much better,” smiled Ember and breathed deep herself. “Looks like we can st-ART!” Ember was caught off guard as Spike suddenly got up and pinned her on her back and took the top position. He had his claws on her breasts, giving into temptation. This time it was Ember’s turn to blush. “Wh-when did you get this strong?”

“Heheh,” smiled Spike with more confidence. “I’ve grown up. I’m no longer a runt.” Spike then pressed his lips against Ember’s and gave her a kiss that left her blushing even more.

“Wh-what was that?” she asked once Spike took his lips away.

“It’s called a kiss,” answered Spike. “How did you like it?”

“I don’t know,” she replied. “Let me give it a try.” The two of them pressed their lips together and kissed. Their hands moved to wrap around one another as they pulled one another closer together. They swapped saliva as they comtinued making out and enjoyed the passion for nearly a minute before stopping to take a breathe. “Yeah, I like it.”

“I thought you might,” stated Spike.

“Well, now that we’re warmed up, we should get the mating started,” she told him and stood up. Spike got up too and remembered that every dragon there had been watching them whole time in anticipation for the mating to start. The fear he had over all those eyes on him didn’t phase him while his mind was too full of lust for Ember to register thoughts of fear. “I think we’ve kept them waiting long enough. Would you care to do the honors?”

“Um, sure,” answered Spike, taking a few deep breaths of the pheremones in the air to keep his lust going strong and distract him from his nervousness. Stepping to the edge of the rock, his cock leaked pre that dripped over the side. “Dragons of Equestria!” he called out loudly. “We are all here for the Dragon Mating. Now start fucking. I command you!”

Letting out beastly roars and spewing fire into the air, the dragons immediately got to humping and pounding one another terribly pent up from the wait. Most dragons were only paired up with a single dragon of the opposite sex and were already shoving cock into pussy not holding back. Some dragons were paired up with lots of dragons and were enjoying their harem, poking claws into pussies or stroking and licking cocks, having fun teasing as they chose the first dragon they were going to mate with, a choice that didn’t last long with how bad their wanted to fulfill their own needs. The remaining dragons were still looking for an available mate that was interested in them. Some gave up trying to find someone of the opposite sex and grabbed the nearest dragon just to find relief from the lust. Others joined one of the harems to get in on the action. A few of the more aggressive dragons attempted to bully other dragons away from their partner and take them for their own leading with varying success. And the rest, their pride the only thing greater than their lust, were simply stuck there with an itch they didn’t have anyone to scratch for them.

“This sucks,” grumbled Garble among those itchy dragons. “I should be the one having sex with the Dragon Lord. I should be the one who everyone should be begging to have sex with. I shouldn’t even need to ask. I’m the top dragon around here.” Fuming mad, he approached a bunch of nearby rocks and sat down unable to do anything his pride wouldn’t allow.

“Oh, you gotta be kidding me,” whispered Twilight as she and the others were getting crushed under the weight of Garble as he rested on top of them. “He’s so heavy.”

“It might be a good idea to get out of here before he notices us,” Starlight suggested.

“What? But I don’t want to go yet,” argued Rainbow Dash. “I’m just getting into it. Uh, the research and everything.”

“You are?” asked Starlight surprised to find out that Rainbow Dash out of all of them would say that.

“Uh, yeah,” she continued hesitantly. “Writing notes and stuff like that.”

“Honestly, I don’t want to leave either,” Applejack chimed in. “It’d be a waste to leave just when things are getting started.”

“Well, things are getting pretty good,” admitted Starlight unable to deny that her whole body was aching for sex now too and she could clearly see the others were in the same situation. “Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, how about you two?”

“I suppose we could say for a couple minutes longer,” Fluttershy replied. The normal nervous stutter in her voice for being in such a dangerous situation was noticeably missing. “Or a few minutes or hours or, uh, however long the mating season lasts.”

“Wanna hump so bad!” cried Pinkie Pie as she started to hump at Rainbow Dash’s backside, but their disguises got in the way.

“Pinkie,” hushed Twilight. “You’re going to give us away. Uh, and I’m getting such important research done.” Twilight looked down at her notes, but everything she had written on her cum-covered scrolls had gone down to nothing more than pictures of dicks, humping dragons and ponies, and words like “fuck,” “sex,” and “horny” written all over the place. Starlight managed to snatch the papers away with magic and confirm her suspicious.

“We are all losing it out here,” Starlight stated. “We’re going to expose ourselves like Rarity almost did if we don’t teleport out of here right now.” Starlight paused a moment and then realized that one pony among them had been worryingly quiet the whole time. “Uh, Rarity?”

“So big, so strong,” drooled Rarity with lust as she gazed upon Garble’s cock and body. Normally, she greatly disliked him for how much of a brute he was especially to Spike, but she couldn’t deny that seeing his strong body up close and his endowment in a league of its own was overwhelmingly tempting. Too much for her to bear. With a burst of her magic she forced the rock disguise off of them and knocked Garble to the ground. “So mine!”

“Rarity!” cried Starlight now that they were exposed. The dragons that were already too busy mating didn’t notice, but all the other dragons did. “Not good.”

“Very good,” drooled Twilight as she and the others looked at all the dragons closing in on them. “Girls, looks like we’re about to learn about dragon mating from first hand experience!”

“You are just burning with lust right now,” Starlight stated able to easily see through her, though the same hormonal urges were going through her too.

“Yes!” Twilight admitted shamelessly. “Ok, boys, who wants a piece of me?”

“Us too!” Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie called out running to the crowd of dragons.

“I guess if you can’t beat them, join them,” sighed Starlight giving up on being the rational one.

“Huh? What?” asked Garble confused as he got up and looked around to see Twilight and the others. “Ponies? Here at the dragon mating? Urgh! Just what we don’t need. A bunch of ponies getting involved with more of our dragon culture. Just what kind of real dragon would willingly have sex with a pony?”

“You’re even better looking up close,” Rarity stated as she approached Garble looking quite infatuated with him. “That big bod of yours, all those muscles, and that great big dick.”

“Well, I suppose even a pony can tell a perfect specimen of a dragon,” bragged Garble unwilling to admit he was happy to finally get some attention.

“I have seen some big stallions before, but they don’t even come close to you in any respect,” she swooned.

“Heh, well duh,” Garble chuckled and flexed for Rarity a bit. “You can’t get any better than me.”

“Oh, yes, I agree,” she said moving even closer to him. “I have always been one who enjoys the finer things in life and you are certainly one of them.”

“Yeah, well,” he started to say, but was thrown off guard. “Wait, what?”

“Mine!” she shouted greedily and leapt at Garble knocking him onto his back and forced his massive cock into her vagina and began humping him.

‘Wh-what are you doing?” he stuttered in shock, but didn’t find her forcefulness displeasing.

“Oh, sweet Celestia!” she moaned feeling her insides strain and stretch against Garble’s massiveness. “It’s even better than I could have imagined. Where have you been all my life?”

“Here, sharing my cock with other dragons,” answered Garble trying to be defiant, but finding it hard with Rarity’s eagerness. “And I don’t share it with ponies.”

“Then you have to learn to be a bit more generous,” replied Rarity squeezing her thighs tight to Garble’s member she leaned closer to Garble’s head to look deeply into his eyes. “And I am the perfect pony to teach that to you.”

“Umph,” Garble groaned through gritted teeth. “N-not b-bad… for a pony, that is.”

“Just you wait,” she cooed nuzzling against his chest and feeling his scaley, toned body. “That was just an introduction. But now that pleasantries have been exchanged, how about we move on to the real fun?”

“What? Some namby pamby, pony fu-” he started to say, but Rarity started to hump him again faster and forcing him deeper inside with each thrust. Garble was in awe at her drive as she worked to fit his entire length inside of her, something even most of the other dragons hadn’t been able to do. “Fuck! And how is this supposed to teach me to be more generous? Feels more like you want me all for myself.”

“I meant more generous with me, of course,” she answered still picking up speed and moaning with incredible bliss. “Now hug me close and tell me you’re all mine.”

“And why would I ever say something like that?” questioned Garble defensively.

“Fine,” answered Rarity stopping. “Then I’ll just take my business elsewhere.” Slowly Rarity started pulling out, but just as she was almost out, Garble took her hoof.

“N-no,” Garble mumbled. He then said something that Rarity couldn’t understand.

“I beg your pardon,” she told him. “I can’t understand you.” Garble spoke again, a bit clearer, but his words were still too hard to understand. “You’re mumbling, darling. You have to speaker clearer.”

“Ugh!” groaned Garble before shouting out at the top of his lungs, “I am yours, okay?!? Are you happy, now?”

“Very,” she answered. “Now give me all you got!”

“You want it, you got it!” submitted Garble switching to take the top position. “I’ve seen some greedy dragons, myself included, but I don’t think we can even hold a candle to you.”

“You flatter me,” she replied before he started to pound her pussy with all his might and got her to scream and moan with delight at the top of her lungs. It was so loud it even momentarily stopped all the others for a moment to look around curiously at where it was coming from before going back to their own fucking.

All over, the dragon mating was in full swing. Every dragon (and pony) had managed to already find one mate already and were either still at it, taking a short break, or already moving onto another mate. Even after hours had passed, things hadn’t slowed down even a little. Twilight and the others were amazed at the endurance the dragon’s had as well as their own after all the sex they had.

“Dragon pheromones create an incredibly powerful lustful desire in all who inhale it,” Twilight noted as she was having sex with her third dragon. “Even after climaxing, signs of exhaustion or a need to rest are short or nonexistent. This appears to be true even after hours of intercourse and several orgasms.”

“Are all ponies as nerdy as you?” asked the dragon that was penetrating deep inside her.

“Oh, not at all, but I can’t let a little lust keep me from being very thorough in this once in a lifetime research report,” she told him. “Now, maybe you can answer a few questions.”

“Only if you’ll answer some of mine,” he replied actually taking notes too with a free hand. “I’ve been curious about the pony mating habits myself. Perhaps we can pick at each other’s brains a bit more after all this is through.”

“You just became a whole lot sexier,” Twilight murred and locked lips with him. While they kissed, they both wrote down some more notes.

“Okay! Who’s next?” Rainbow Dash called out. “I’m all set to go again so don’t hold back!”

“Wow,” commented Starlight. “I know everyone is not slowing down here, but you’re looking more eager than ever.”

“Are you kidding?” she answered. “This is awesome! I’m going for a record.”

“How many dragons have you mated with so far?”

“Twelve, though a couple came back for seconds and I did have a threesome once.”

“I think you’ve probably got the record,” Starlight stated. “I doubt any of us, ponies or dragons, are even close to that.”

“Cause I’m awesome,” bragged Rainbow.

“Always so competitive,” chuckled Starlight as she looked around. “Uh, hey, Rainbow Dash, we only came here, the seven of us, right?”

“Uh, yeah,” she answered. “Why are you asking that?”

“Well, then who is that over there?” she asked pointing to a different pony that was also joining in with the dragon mating.

“I think that's… Derpy?” said Rainbow Dash confused. “When did she get here? And is she mating with… Crackle?”

“I guess so,” answered Starlight.

“Eh, I’d ship that,” admitted Rainbow Dash.

“So who’s the top dragon now?” asked Spike lifting Garble’s tail out of the way as he pounded Garble’s rear with all his might.

“You are,” he grumbled as he felt his rear getting penetrated for the first time ever. Spike may not have been nearly as big as Garble, but he didn’t need to be with how tight Garble’s tail hole was. “And I thought you didn’t bring your pony friends here.”

“I didn’t,” Spike answered. “They came on their own, but looks like they’re having quite a lot of fun along with everyone else. I hope you haven’t been causing them any trouble.”

“Actually, I have to admit that they aren’t half bad… today,” he admitted.

“I’m surprised to hear that come from you,” Spike stated in disbelief.

“It’s the hormones talking,” he used as an excuse. “I’m not thinking clearly. I can go back to hating those dumb ponies when all this is done.”

“Oh, Spikey Wikey!” called Rarity watching them from a distance and waving to them. “Try not to hurt my Garble Warble too much.” She had a hoof rubbing against her vagina and she looked just as lustful as ever. “I’m getting eager for another turn. In fact, how’d you like to join in for a two in one special?”

“I’ve been waiting so long to hear her say those words,” swooned Spike. “Wait? Rarity wants to have sex with you?”

“Wh-what about it?” asked Garble looking a bit flushed. “It’s no big deal.”

“I know that look on your face,” Spike stated. “It’s the same look I get whenever I gaze upon Rarity.” Smirking, Spike positioned his cock at the entrance of Garble’s tailhole. “Admit it. You’ve got a crush on a pony.”

“I- I do not,” stuttered Garble, his tone very unconvincing.

“You sure about that?” asked Spike shoving his cock into Garble’s rear all the way with one thrust. Garble winced in pain, his tail hole aching as it got stretched. “Can you look Rarity in the eye and tell her you don’t like her?” Garble looked over at Rarity again and felt his heart beating harder just seeing her and it beat even faster still seeing how aroused she was. He was so love stricken that Spike didn’t even need a confession from him to know, but wanted to hear it. Gripping Garble’s ass, he pulled out hard and thrust in even hard. “Say it!”

“Gah!” groaned Garble. “I- I- I don’t! I don’t like her.”

“I know you’re lying and I’m not going to stop pounding your ass till you tell the truth,” demanded Spike. “Now confess!”

With all his might Garble tried to resist, but with each thrust by Spike in his rear ached more and more. Each time Spike slammed into Garble, his proud, formerly untouched tailhole stretched out little by little and made it achingly sore. Finally, Garble couldn’t take it anymore. “Ok! Ok! I admit it! I like her! I like that pony! I like Rarity. I’ve never met anyone else like her. She’s got this generous side to her that is just so pony, but very intriguing. But then she’s also very greedy, even more than I’ve seen in most dragons that’s so attractive too. And the more I look at her the more I see she’s got this sexy appeal that I can’t seem to resist.”

“Yeah, she’s irresistible,” agreed Spike smiling dreamily at the pony he’s had a crush on for as long as he could remember. He then looked back down at Garble glad to finally have him at his mercy with an assful of his dragonhood. “There’s just two things I want to make clear right here, right now.”

“What are they?” moaned Garble feeling achy, but also finding the ass pounding starting to feel arousing along with Spike dominating over him.

“For starters, I had a crush on Rarity first so I am number one and you are number two. Never forget that. As for the second thing, if you ever do anything to hurt or upset Rarity in any way, then I’ll fuck you so hard that the pounding I’ve given you now will feel like you were being tickled by a parasprite. Do we have an understanding?”

“Y-yes, Sp-Sp-Spike,” he stuttered submissively.

“‘Yes, Spike’ what?” asked Spike slamming his cock into Garble again.

“Yes, Spike, Sir!” he cried.

“And who wants me to keep pounding your ass till I fill you full of my treasure?” continued Spike.

“M-m-me,” he whimpered getting more and more aroused by Spike’s assertiveness.

“Very good,” chuckled Spike, resuming his constant humping drawing close to his climax.

“What’s going on over here?” asked Ember as she approached Rarity who was watching intently at Spike and Garble. She had her hoof eagerly rubbing her pussy, but holding back enough to save it for when they finished.

“Oh, the boys are just going at it over there and I’m enjoying the show,” she explained. “I have to admit I’ve never thought I’d see the day that Spike would take on Garble on his own like this and come out on top.”

“I’ve heard that anything can happen during the dragon mating season with all the hormones running wild,” Ember told her. “To be honest, it was because of that, that I didn’t want anybody to come because of how unpredictably dangerous it could be, but I’ve already seen all the others and they’ve all been fitting in surprisingly well. It sure is a load off my mind that nothing awful has happened… at least… I hope not… since, well…” Ember couldn’t seem to find the words she wanted to say, but Rarity seeing her look down at her belly was evidence enough.

“Twilight did go over all the risks that we’d face in very great detail before we arrived,” Rarity answered Ember giving her belly a pat. “She wouldn’t let any of us come unless we were all completely ready for anything and that includes motherhood.”

“I’m not even sure if ponies and dragons can have children together,” Ember said.

“We’ll find out in a few weeks when we go to get checked,” Rarity smiled. “But no need to fret over that right now. We’re still in middle of the mating season.”

“Oh, yeah!” roared Spike as he shot his load into Garble, flames escaping his maw and he moaned with bliss.

“Looks like those two are finishing up,” smiled Ember. “Guess you want to go over to get in there too.”

“Oh, well of course you’re invited to come,” offered Rarity, her tone sounding very insisting. “The more the merrier. That is, of course, if you are still hungry for sex.”

“Are you kidding,” chuckled Ember. “With how long I’ve been waiting for this day to come, I’m not nearly satisfied yet.”

Dear Princess Celestia,

This is your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle, writing to you. I apologize for not writing sooner, but participating in the Dragon Mating Season was not something any of us expected to happen and after it ended we were so exhausted we all slept for days to rest and recover. Now that I’m feeling back up to 100% again and my insatiable lustful urges have passed I can write to you with a clear head.

Witnessing and even being a part of the Dragon Mating Season has truly been a unique and informative experience. With the notes I’ve taken I will be able to write a whole new volume on dragons. I just need to clean up my notes a bit first as they got a bit messy in the middle of all the “festivities.” I will write to you soon with more information, including the possibility that we all might be welcoming little bundles of joy down the road. As you can already imagine I have started my preparations in fireproofing the castle, setting up a nursery, and thinking of potential names. I’ll will keep you informed on how we’re all doing in the months to come.

Your faithful student and potential mother-to-be,
Twilight Sparkle

Several months later…

“Twilight,” Starlight called carefully making her way into library. “The Cakes are here to help with our birthing practice. We don’t want to keep them waiting again.”

“I’m coming,” Twilight said with quill writing on parchment via magic. “I just want to add a few more potential names to my list real quick.”

“Do you really need this many possible names?” asked Starlight looking at the mountain of scrolls behind the Princess of Friendship. “You don’t need more than one, right? And even if you were to have twins or even triplets I doubt you’d need several hundred names. Looking around, I’m sure you’ve probably exhausted every possible name anyway.”

“Oh, these are just possible names A-K,” she explained. “I’ve still got a lot more names to consider and the doctors are saying we should all be due in only a few more months. It is vital that I decide on the perfect name as soon as possible. After all, a proper name is integral to the development of any newborn. Without a name they will lack any sense of identity and that can be crippling to their self esteem. Furthermore, from all the psychology books I’ve read something as simple as a name can drastically affect a child’s growth and interests. So much as changing a single letter in their name could be the difference between them being the president of a major corporation and being a rodeo clown. Can you imagine if my child becomes something they don’t like because of the name I gave them?!? They might end up hating me for dooming them to a life of baggy pants and tomfoolery!”

“Twilight,” Starlight said trying to calm her teacher down. “Remember the number one rule of birthing class?”

“Of course, I do,” she answered. “It’s to… remain calm…” Twilight sighed. “Thanks. You’re a good friend to always be looking out for me.”

“I’ve learned from the best,” smiled Starlight. “Now let’s hurry on over. They brought a bunch of those sweets we’ve been craving. We better hurry before Pinkie Pie eats them all.”

“Pinkie!” cried Mr. Cake as they awaited Twilight and Starlight in the Map Room of the castle. “Those weren’t all for you.”

“But they were so yummylicious,” she replied with a belch at the end. “They were one yummy more than delicious. That’s how good they were.”

“I’ve never seen anyone with such cravings before,” commented Mrs. Cake. “Is this what it’s like for dragons giving birth?”

“Oh, these aren’t cravings,” Pinkie explained. “All these sweets are just really sweet and I am eating for two now.”

“It’s a good thing that business has really been booming as of late or I don’t think we’d be able to afford to feed you otherwise,” joked Mr. Cake.

“And I really appreciate all the help you’ve given me and my friends,” she told them. “Especially for the party I’ve been planning for all our newborns. It is going to be the biggest party Ponyville’s had since the last party I’ve planned.”

“We’re glad too since you’ve been practically family since you first came to live with us,” Mrs. Cake reminded her. “You even helped us raise our own little ones and now Pound and Pumpkin are eager to lend you a hoof in helping raise your own bundle of joy. We just hope taking care of your baby won’t be too much for them to handle.”

“Why?” asked Pinkie Pie. “Because he’ll be part dragon?”

“Uh, more because he’ll be part Pinkie Pie,” the Cakes joked.

“Now I told you, Big Mac,” Applejack argued with her older brother from bed. A red-haired horse, green eyes, and a reddish orange mane. He had a harness on his neck like he usually did and he had a green apple half for a cutie mark. Compared to most stallions he had a notably bigger and stronger build. “I am still plenty fit to work the fields. I shouldn’t be due for a couple more months at least.”

“Nope,” answered Big Mac, a pony of few words.

“Oh, come on now,” pleaded Applejack now turning to her grandmother, Granny Smith. She was an elderly pony with pale green hair, a grayed mane and tail both done up in a bun, and yellowish orange eyes. She had a pie in a tin for a cutie mark. Her body was thin and wrinkled, but despite her age she still had a strong air of authority on their home in Sweet Apple Acres.

“Now listen here, child,” Granny Smith lectured. “You aren’t in any condition to putting any strain on yourself with a bun in the oven. Besides, half pint and her friends volunteered to pitch in and take care of your chores so there really is no need for you to fret. You’ll stay in this bed and take care of the little seed growing inside of you, do I make myself clear?”

“Yes, granny,” she conceded seeing that her her stubbornness had lost to her grandmother’s. “But do I gotta keep on drinking this apple broth? I like apples as much as the next pony, but I’ve been drinking three bowls of this a day ever since we found out I was pregnant and, well, enough is enough.”

“Fiddle faddle,” she scoffed. “This apple broth recipe has been in the Apple family for generations. There ain’t anything better for you to have while nurturing a life inside of you. It’s got plenty of nutrition and will keep away the morning sickness.”

“Only cause I’m sicker from drinking this all the time,” she retorted silently.

“Now finish the rest and then take your afternoon nap and I don’t want to hear any more complaints about it, right Big Mac?”

“Uh… eyup,” he answered after a slight pause and then left with Granny and closed the door.

Applejack took the bowl of apple broth and looked at it for a moment and groaned at the thought of taking one more sip and instead poured it into a nearby flower pot. She then rested her head on her pillow and stared up at the ceiling. “Ugh, I’m going stir crazy being cooped up in here. I bet Rainbow Dash doesn’t have to put up with all this.”

“I bet Applejack isn’t putting up with all this nurturing nonsense,” groaned Rainbow Dash to Fluttershy as she was laying on a couch in her friend’s cottage. The two ponies were surrounded by all of Flutttershy’s animal friends and led by Angel Bunny, keeping a close eye on them.

“Now, Rainbow Dash,” Fluttershy said calmly resting on the couch beside her. “We have to take it easy for our babies. We can’t do anything too strenuous and that includes things like flying.”

“Ugh, I know that,” grumbled Rainbow Dash. “But I’m going stir crazy just laying around and if that wasn’t bad enough, you can imagine the field day the other Wonderbolts had when I told them I needed to be on maternity leave. Half were just stunned, mouth agape and the others were poking fun that ‘super awesome and radical, Rainbow Dash, the greatest flyer the Wonderbolt’s ever had’ was retiring to be a mommy.”

“Well, that’s not so bad,” Fluttershy pointed out. “They did say you were the greatest flyer in the Wonderbolts ever, after all.”

“Actually,” she admitted. “I was quoting myself. Anyway, to save face a bit, I told them that not only was I not retiring to do mommy stuff, but I was coming back and bringing along the first ever dragon to join the Wonderbolts.”

“That sounds amazing,” smiled Fluttershy. “I just hope my own little bundle of joy will be happy and healthy. Oh, and get along well with everyone.”

“I doubt that will be a problem,” Rainbow commented. “All your animal friends are working this hard to take care of you as much as you usually take care of them. They’re probably just as excited for the birth as we are. Isn’t that right my little, cutie pie, uh, I mean, my big, bad, ultra rad dragon. You’ll be the most awesome thing to ever happen to the Wonderbolts since… well… me. But that only makes sense since you’ll be taking after me.”

As Fluttershy giggled watching Rainbow go on about how awesome her baby was going to be, Angel hopped over to Fluttershy with a fresh bowl of soup. Placing it on the table, he spooned some out, blew on it and brought it to her muzzle. “Oh, thank you Angel. You’re taking such good care of me and I know you’ll make a great godbunny too.” Angel nodded and got another spoonful of soup ready. “I wonder how all the others are doing now.”

“Hey, sis, are you sure the baby is going to need all these clothes?” asked Sweetie Bell looking at her boutique that was filled with months of work of baby clothes.

“But of course,” Rarity assured her. “I have to make sure that I make the right size clothes for my little darling and I’ll need an outfit that will go with the color of their scales. Since I have no idea what they will be like I have to cover all my bases and I’m sure the others will need outfits too so even the extras won’t go to waste.”

“If you say so,” she answered. “But is it a smart idea to use gemstones on the clothes? Won’t they just eat them?”

“I will only give the best to my child,” Rarity stated proudly. “And that includes gems whether they be for fashion or food. Oh, and speaking of food, could you be a dear and bring that bowl of rubies outside. My Garble Warble, is probably getting hungry.”

“He’s been out there for a couple months now,” noted Sweetie Bell. “All I’ve seen him do is scowl at anypony that walks by and snort smoke out his nose. And you’re saying he’s the father?”

“I am quite sure about that,” Rarity said. “And he does peek in from time to time. He’s got a lot of rough edges, but there is a beauty within. A diamond in the rough if you will.”

“Is that what you saw in him when you two had sex?” Sweetie Bell asked. “Cause when I asked the others they said it was because he had a-”

“Please, take these rubies out to him!” Rarity ordered abruptly her face blushing brightly and she practically shoved her sister out the door.

“Uh, here you go,” Sweetie Bell said holding out the bowl of rubies to Garble.

“These from Rarity?” he asked not making eye contact with her and just continued to look distant.

“Yeah,” she nodded. “Uh, you know, you don’t have to stay outside. You can go in. I’m sure it’d make Rarity happy if you did.”

“What makes you think I came here for her?” asked Garble trying to be aloof, but the Rarity in a heart t-shirt he had on did anything but mask his feelings for her. “Just leave the gems and I’ll eat them when I feel like it.”

Placing them beside Garble, Sweetie Bell took her leave. “It’s kind of strange seeing a dragon other than Spike pining over Rarity,” she thought. “Speaking of Spike, I wonder how he’s doing. He’s been in the Dragon Lands for a while now.”

“Pass the salt,” former Dragon Lord Torch requested to Spike, though with how loud and aggressive his voice blasted, it sounded more like a command. The two were in the castle of the Dragon Lord in the dining hall and, while it was quite vast, it was essentially a massive table that only gigantic creatures like fully grown dragons could sit at and properly eat from. For anyone else, they had to stand atop the table to get at the food.

“Uh, coming right up,” answered Spike as he walked over to the salt shaker that was larger than he was. It took all his strength to push it towards Torch.

“Some time today, if you would,” Torch growled getting impatient and Spike tried even harder. It took almost ten minutes, but he finally brought it close enough for Torch to pick it up and pour some onto his plate of gemstones. He then placed it down beside Spike. “You can put it back now.”

“Uh,” hesitated Spike for a moment not wanting to have to go through all that again. “Maybe later.”

“So, tell me young dragon, how has Ember been doing with my grandchild to be?” he questioned.

“She’s been doing fine,” Spike answered. “All the dragons from all over have been coming around to see her and her egg, but all the countless visitors have been getting her kind of testy. How long does it take for a dragon egg to hatch?”

“The time can vary,” he explained. “It can take anywhere from nearly a year to decades. Maybe even a century in some cases. There are some dragon eggs out there from even before my reign that have yet to hatch.”

“Oh, I hope that won’t apply to my friends,” worried Spike. “I don’t think they want to be pregnant for that long.”

“Could you pass me the pepper now?” asked Torch not particularly interested in what Spike had to say if he didn’t inquire about it first.

Looking back across the massive table, Spike saw the pepper shaker back where he started.

“Coming right up,” groaned Spike trudging over to get it.

Several more months passed and Twilight, Starlight, and all the other ponies made their way over to the Dragon Lands to meet up with Spike and Ember. They met at the very same meeting grounds as they did before, the need for disguises unnecessary. When they saw one another, they could all see that none of them were empty handed.

“Guys!” called Spike excitedly hurrying over. “It’s been ages. I’ve missed you all so much!”

“We’ve missed you a lot too, Spike,” Twilight replied happily. “There’s so much we have to tell you about.”

“And looks like you’ve got some things to tell us about,” commented Starlight noticing Spike’s body was considerably more muscular and toned since they last saw him. “Have you been working out?”

“Well, I have had to pass some salt and pepper shakers around a lot for the last few months,” he told them chuckling. “And that was one heck of a workout.”

“What?” asked Starlight a bit confused.

“I’ll explain later, but don’t you all have something more important to show us?” asked Spike eagerly.

“Oh, well let us be the first to introduce you to our little bundles of joy,” Twilight said as she and Starlight showed Spike and Ember their newborns first. Looking at the babies, they saw they were half dragon and half pony. They had hooves for hind legs and claws for their front. Their bodies were covered in scales, but instead of spikes on their head and back, they had manes. Twilight’s little one had a bright red mane and sunny yellow scales. Her eyes were blue and she even had a horn and feather wings. Starlight’s child had navy blue scales and an indigo mane and gray eyes. He had a horn too and normal dragon wings.

“They’re so adorable,” stated Spike smiling with delight. “What are their names?”

“This here is Nova Flare,” Twilight said beaming with pride. “Seeing her bright sunny colors I decided to name her like the sun just like Princess Celestia.”

“And I named mine in honor of Princess Luna,” Starlight added. “My son’s name is Blue Moon.”

“Nice to meet you two,” said Spike rubbing their heads gently making them giggle and little embers come out of their maws.

“Were those the names you picked from the huge list I know you made?” Spike asked Twilight.

“I did make a list,” she admitted. “But when we saw them, we didn’t even need it.”

“Well, I think it fits them both perfectly,” stated Spike happily. “And they look like they like their names too.”

“Don’t forget about the rest of us now,” Applejack stated carrying over her own bundle of joy. “Here’s the apple of my eye so to speak, Pitaya.”

“Uh, Pit- what now?” asked Spike confused.

“Pitaya,” repeated Applejack, though the silence she got from the others showed they needed more of an explanation. “More commonly known as Dragon Fruit. For short we call him Pit. He’s a little fellow now, but I reckon he’ll be strong as an ox before long.”

Little Pit had fuschia scales and a light green mane and orange eyes. Spike tickled his belly with a claw only to have the young pony dragon show what a strong grip he had squeezing his claw tightly.

“You weren’t kidding,” chuckled Spike unable to get his finger free. “It must be that strong Apple blood he’s got in him.”

“Darn tooting,” Applejack agreed wholeheartedly.

“Well, if you think he’s cool, just wait till you see my awesome tot,” bragged Rainbow Dash showing off her child. “I wanted to name her something awesome like Super Mega Awesome Radical Dragon Dude, but that was a bit too much of a mouthful to say. Also, she’s not a dude. So I picked something shorter, but just as awesome. My little girl, and future Wonderbolt’s name is Storm Chaser.”

Storm Chaser had skyblue scales and scarlet eyes. Her mane had a rainbow colors in it just like her mother as did her feathered wings.

“If she’s going to be a Wonderbolt someday then she’s going to have a lot to live up to with you as her mother, second in command next to Spitfire and most skilled flier of all,” commented Spike.

“Not to mention breaker of all records even my own,” added Rainbow Dash. “But everyday I’m helping little Stormy here exercise her wings so she’ll be taking to the skies in no time. If you want to be awesome at something you have to give it your all from day one.”

“So, who’s next?” asked Spike still wrestling with Pit to get his claw free, but finding it hard even with his increased effort.

“I’ll go next,” answered Rarity bringing over 2 carriages.

“You had twins?” asked Spike a bit shocked as he went over to see. The first one had snow white scales and sapphire blue eyes and her mane was a shimmering gold. She was quietly asleep like a little angel. The other one had fiery red scales and scary orange eyes. Her orange mane was shorter and far more unkempt. This one was busy gnawing at her own tail despite its baby teeth had not come in yet.

“Let me guess,” commented Spike looking at the sleeping baby. “This one takes after you.” He then looked back at the other one that snorted some smoke out of her nose. “And this one takes after daddy, right?”

“Yes, but they are both equally my priceless treasures,” Rarity explained. “My little one getting her beauty rest on the left is Precious Gem and her sister on the right is Rough Diamond.”

“So, has daddy been around to see them?” asked Spike curiously.

“Quite constantly,” Rarity said. “But he’s always kept his distance usually peeking in from a window. It’s not like the door is even locked, but him and that stubborn pride of his.”

“Is it my turn yet?” asked Pinkie eagerly wanting to have her turn. She was rocking her baby eagerly in her arms and the little one was giggling happily, having fun. He had bright blue scales and eyes to match. His mane was a few shades darker and curly as Pinkie’s mane was. He was also noticeably a fair bit chubbier looking than all the other babies with his muzzle covered in gem dust. “I named my son after my dad so his name is Igneous Rock Pie, but I like to call his Iggy for short. I was so excited waiting for him to be born I’ve already planned out his first twenty birthdays, his wedding day and his first, tenth, and twenty fifth wedding anniversaries.”

“And looks like he’s got just as big of a sweet tooth as his mother does,” joked Spike seeing Iggy licking at the gem dust around his muzzle. He gave his belly a little poke with his free arm. Spike had already given up trying to free his other arm from Pit who was sucking on his claw now. “Now all that leaves from your group is Fluttershy.”

“She’s a bit shy,” warned Fluttershy as she brought her baby over. She had a blanket wrapped over most of her body, but they could see a pair of gray eyes peeking out at them curiously. “There there little one,” Fluttershy cooed. “It’s okay, everyone here is a friend who loves you so very much.” Fluttershy gently petting her child on the head as she carefully helped take the blanket off of her. Even when the blanket came off, she still hugged onto it tightly. This one had pale yellow scales and a white mane and feathered wings.

“She sure is shy,” agreed Spike. “What’s her name?”

“It was really hard to pick a name,” explained Fluttershy. “Angel had some ideas and so did Discord, but they were having a hard time agreeing on one. I just couldn’t decide for the longest time, but then we finally agreed on one. Her name is Summer Snow.”

“Uh, Summer Snow?” asked Spike a bit confused.

“Well, Angel wanted a seasony name and Discord wanted a chaosy name,” Fluttershy told him. “It wasn’t easy to find a name that worked for what they both wanted, but seeing Summer was so warm in my arms and yet her mane and wings were as white as snow it just came to us all at the same time.”

“That’s very sweet,” admitted Spike moving a bit closer to get a better look at Summer Snow only to have her hide under her blanket again.

“Sorry, it takes her a little while to warm up to new ponies, but she will in time,” Fluttershy said to them.

“That’s fine,” agreed Spike. “And now we can show you our child.”

“Let us be the first to introduce you to our daughter,” announced Ember. “Princess Blaze.” Holding her baby dragon in her arms for everyone to see, she was a full dragon like her parents. She had purple scales and green spikes just like her father, but she had her mother’s eyes. She also had her mother’s horns though they were just nubs right now and had a long way to go.

“She’s so beautiful,” stated Twilight. “You both did a wonderful job.”

“So did all of you,” replied Spike. “You think all our children will be just as much friends as we are to one another?”

“I don’t have any doubt about that,” smiled Twilight.

“If you are all done now with the chitchat,” interrupted Photo Finish. “It is about time for me to make the magics!”

“Oh, sorry about that,” Twilight apologized. “I think we’re all ready for the group photo. Everyone gather around.”

“Uh, Applejack,” Spike asked her. “Do you think you can help me get my claw back?”

“Come on now, Pit,” she said tickling his belly to make him laugh. “Let him go. You’ve got plenty of claws of your own to suck on.” Pit opened his maw to giggle happily and taking that opportunity Spike got his claw free, albeit covered in drool.

“Time to wake up little one,” cooed Rarity trying to gently wake Precious Gem but not upset her. Giving a slight yawn, she gently stirred awake.

“It’s okay, Summer Snow,” Fluttershy said calmly trying to take her blanket off her again. “We’re going to get our picture taken so you have to take off the blanket.” It took a bit of coaxing, but Fluttershy finally managed to win out. “Ok, we better take it quick.”

“Ok, Photo Finish, we’re all set,” announced Twilight.

“Then it is time to make with the magics!” she declared with her camera at the ready.

“Wait for us!” called Derpy as she flew towards all of them with Crackle right behind her and her own bundle of joy in her hooves.

“Is that Derpy and Crackle and a baby?” asked Spike surprised.

“I guess you didn’t see them back during the mating,” said Rainbow Dash.

“Eh… I’d ship it,” replied Spike.

A story I made a while back. I decided to edit it up a bit and have it submitted here for Spike Day. Enjoy.

Edit: Added some content around the parts with Ember to help with some continuity with the sequel.
