Luna placed a hoof in front of her sister, abruptly stopping them before a large pair of double doors flanked by a solar and lunar guard. Beyond them lay one last security checkpoint before the war room itself and the significance of crossing this border gave Luna pause. “Sister, are you sure about this?” She asked, nervously,nodding towards the large doors. “What if they do not agree, or see through our ruse?”

Celestia smiled warmly and placed a comforting hoof on her sister’s shoulder. “Trust me Luna, Shining Armor is not the most observant pony around and if push comes to shove, I know Cadence would agree even if we dropped all pretense. Besides, it's not entirely a ruse.” She chuckled. “Just, mostly.”

“Still…” Luna wavered, glancing over her shoulder at the long hall that separated the war room from the rest of the castle.

A gentle golden glow gripped the alicorn’s chin and pulled Luna’s gaze into her sister’s. “Do you trust me, sister?”

Luna sighed. “With my life.”

Celestia smiled and pulled her sibling into a brief but powerful hug. “If your nervous then let me do most of the talking, they trust me almost as much as you do.”

The darker alicorn blushed and nuzzled the larger alicorn briefly before pushing away. “As always, you are right Tia.” A sudden smirk grew across the dark alicorn’s lips and she couldn't help but giggle suddenly. “Oh I hope this works, I cannot wait to see that belly of yours bulging with life once more!”

Celestia blushed slightly. “I hope you get knocked up with triplets, you are so sexy with a huge bulging belly.”

Luna blushed even harder. “Not as sexy as you got when you were pregnant with quintuplets that one time. Your breasts were nearly as big as my head!”

The solar princesses’ face had nearly turned completely red at this point and she struggled to resist the urge to fan herself with a hoof. “They had to be, you nearly drank all the milk meant for our little ones.”

The lunar princesses smirked. “You begged me to do that, or do you remember spending hours whining about how tight your teats had gotten?”

Celestia’s cheeks were so bright red they almost glowed in the low light and she was forced to look away from the giggling alicorn. “Yes well, I will just be glad that this heat will not end like the last one.”

Luna rolled her eyes. “At least this time neither of us are hoarding the stallions.”

“Augh, don't remind me. If anypony ever knew we started a civil war over the few stallions capable of breeding alicorns we would never live it down.” Celestia remarked with a groan.

Luna lifted an eyebrow and glanced at the guards that were only a few feet away. “Can't they hear us?”

“No. I used the silence spell so only we can hear each other, remember?”

Luna visibly relaxed and made her way over to the door and opening it wide for her sister. “After you, Tia.”

Celestia tittered and bowed slightly. “Thank you miss Luna.”

The alicorn of the sun stepped inside, followed closely by her sister. With the door slamming shut behind them the two guards were now completely alone, leaving them standing there awkwardly, trying to stay professional.

The lunar guard coughed nervously, glancing at his counterpart. “Do they know the entrance to the restricted area nullifies such spells?”

The solar guard rolled his eyes. “Probably. The last time Celestia used that trick she less than subtly hinted that she had started the second griffin war over a lack of cake frosting on a gift she received from their king.” He shrugged. “She's just messing with us like always, I wouldn't worry about it.”

The lunar guard frowned. For Celestia that makes sense but Luna never jokes, unless it's a pun or a knock knock joke. He shivered, his mind going back to the last time Luna had tried telling a joke. Maybe she's been around Celestia too long.

He shrugged, reasoning that either way it was way above his pay grade.


Mere moments ago, inside the war room, two nervous alicorns and a strangely nonplussed unicorn sat patiently, awaiting the arrival of the ponies that had summoned them. Twilight glanced from the door back to the clock and back to the door once more, nervously grinding her teeth while rubbing her forelegs together impatiently.

The alicorn to her right extended a foreleg over the nervous mare’s shoulders and gave the pony a gentle squeeze. “Calm down Twilight, your making me even more nervous.” Cadence remarked.

“I’m sorry Cadence, but it's the war room for harmony’s sake! Whatever is happening must be huge for Celestia and Luna to summon us here, and while you two were on vacation no less!” Twilight slumped to the table, her chin resting on the cold wood.

Shining Armor shrugged and rubbed the spot between his sister’s wings in slow circles. “Take a breath Twily, nice and slow.” The purple alicorn did as instructed, earning a smile from her brother. “Good, now when was the last time we were summoned here?”

Twilight blinked. “When someone stole all of Celestia’s secret emergency pies?”

The unicorn rolled his eyes. “And do you remember how that ended?”

Twilight visibly shrunk, realization dawning on her. “She actually ate all of them while she was sleep walking.”

“Exactly. The fact that we haven't seen hide nor hair of any rampaging monsters, or other such magical calamities makes me think this might be more along the lines of Celestia’s pies and less like Tirek.” Shining Armor said with a chuckle. “Besides, if it was a big deal wouldn't she also summon the other element bearers?”

“I suppose, but it's not like we wield the elements anymore.” Twilight replied.

Cadence flashed her husband a proud smile. “Still, Shiny is probably right. It's most likely nothing serious so why don't we take a deep breath, sit back and-”

The door suddenly flew open, Luna’s magic tossing aside the huge wooden doors before the alicorn herself leaped into the room and cast a quick glance left, then right, before relaxing slightly. “It is clear, sister.”

Celestia appeared behind her sister, a cautious smile on her face. “So it is, thank you Luna.”

The darker alicorn smiled slightly before her gaze shifted over the room’s three occupants. “You three! Tell me something only you would know!”

Twilight’s eyes went wide. “I wet the bed until I was twelve!”

“Lies! Everyone knows that!” Luna shouted back.

Twilight gasped and covered her mouth. “Really?!”

Celestia rolled her eyes and pulled her sister back slightly, stopping her from leering down at the embarrassed purple alicorn. “That is quite enough sister, the fact that they are here and passed the wards is proof enough.”

Luna’s eyes narrowed and her gaze lingered over the other three ponies. She pointed with one hoof to her eye before pointing it back at the three ponies while mouthing the words ‘I’m watching you’ before finally taking a seat beside her sister.

Shining Armor coughed awkwardly. “So uh, I assume this meeting has something to do with changelings?”

Celestia nodded slowly. “You are right captain Armor. We have reason to believe that these Neulings as ponies have come to refer to them are not as peaceful as we once believed.”

Twilight gasped, the blush slowly leaving her face, replaced by visible confusion. “But I thought king Thorax was still in charge?”

Celestia nodded solemnly. “He is indeed, last I checked.”

Cadence cocked her head. “Then what seems to be the problem? Thorax seemed like a good pony, er, changeling.”

Luna stopped casting angry glares at the shadows and slammed her hoof on the table. “Don't you see dear niece? Tis all a part of their clever ruse!” The dark alicorn leapt onto the table with a flap of her wings. “These skittle bugs are using us! Lying in wait for when our defences drop, then Bam!” She slammed her hoof against the table in emphasis, causing Twilight to nearly vibrate out of her chair. “They swoop in and take over!”

Shining Armor lifted an eyebrow at that and glanced at Celestia who remained calm and collected as always, only the smallest hint of nervousness showing past her regal facade. “Is this true Celestia? What evidence do you have of this?”

The solar alicorn frowned slightly. “I’m afraid most of our evidence is circumstantial at best.” She lit her horn as Luna settled back into her seat. After a second of concentration a strange graph shimmered into existence above the table. Several lines of various colors spread across the bottom, indicating types of magic. While along the left side of the graph indicated the level of thaums of said magic. “Twilight, could you tell the others what this is?”

Twilight leaned forward, her eyes narrowing. “I think that's a magical signature graph but it's unlike any I’ve ever seen.”

Shining Armor gasped suddenly. “Is that a changeling signature?

Celestia smiled. “Exactly, this-” She gestured to the graph. “- is the magical signature of a natural changeling and this-” She lit her horn once more, creating a second, nearly identical graph. “Is a graph of one of the neulings.”

Twilight blinked owlishly. “But they are nearly identical? I thought the tests on the neulings showed extensive physiological changes? Surely they should be more different than that?”

Cadence leaned forward as well, pointing to a blue bar off to the side. “Except for the fact that the nuelings have a higher propensity for harmony magic they seem identical.”

“Be that as it may.” Luna announced. “The small increase is negligible and doesn't even bring them up to the level of a griffon.”

“That is true.” Celestia added. “Furthermore, I would draw your attention toward the readings on the side.” Her magic flashed once more and the small readouts on the sides of the graphs grew in size. “As you can see the neulings have a far larger mana pool as well as an increased total magical output capacity.”

Shining Armor tapped his chin thoughtfully. “Strange, I didn't sense their power level increasing and private Scouter was very thorough in his tests.”

Luna scoffed. “Yes well, private Scouter is no doubt a fool or a stooge for the skittle bugs and their vile schemes!” The alicorn’s horn lit up, forcing the graphs to unzoom and a blue glow and a third graph to appear beside the first.”

Twilight raised her hoof and waved it in the air. “Oh oh, I know this one!” Celestia rolled her eyes and nodded at the mare. “The last one is the average pony, taken from a volunteer thirty years ago during the first testing of the magical signature capture machine or M.S.C.M.”

Celestia giggled softly behind a hoof. “Yes Twilight that is correct. It is still accurate for the most part and as you can see the output for almost every kind of magic is nothing compared to the neulings.”

Cadence gasped. “But I thought you said their capabilities didn't change that much? An average pony should be equitable to that of a normal changeling, right?”

Luna stood up suddenly, a wide confident smile on her face, only to be interrupted by Twilight. “Sort of, a normal pony usually has enough connection to harmony magic to allow them to go hoof to hoof with the average changeling. Due to the neulings having a higher ability to interact with that magic they are actually about twice as strong as the average pony, or at least magicly anyway.”

Luna shrunk slightly, shooting Twilight a glare. “And I had the perfect segway to.” She sighed. “No matter. Young Twilight’s assessment is correct but that is not all.”

The only unicorn in the room cocked his head. “Your going to tell us they are physically stronger as well, aren't you?”

Luna shrunk even more, crossing her forehooves angrily and pouting. “Yes, we were going to say just that.”

Celestia rolled her eyes and placed a gentle hoof on her little sister’s shoulders. “Calm dear sister. I’m sure you will have another chance to dramatically reveal some sort of information soon.”

“Fi!” Luna cursed.

Shining Armor glanced betweenthe graphs briefly. “I’m also assuming it's because their larger magical output has allowed them to gain a measure of strength in the same manner earth ponies do, yes?”

The solar princess nodded gravely. “Yes, it seems as though they are able to reproduce the magical strengths of our little ponies with relative ease, gaining a hint of both an earth ponies strength and a pegasus’ skill of flight and weather manipulation all while maintaining their potent spell casting.”

Cadence scratched her neck and glanced at Celestia. “Which means what exactly? So they are a little bigger and a little stronger and their magic is a little more potent? What does it all mean for Equestria?”

“Before we get to that I would like to reiterate my point one final time.” Celestia nodded to her sister. “Luna, if you would do the honors?”

The darker alicorn smirked proudly. “With pleasure dear sister.”

Twilight lifted an eyebrow. “What do you-”

Luna vanished in a flash, reappearing directly in front of the the purple alicorn. Gone was her usual appearance, replaced by the visage of king Thorax himself who wore a prideful smile. The sudden appearance of the fang filled visage of the changeling king filled the purple alicorn with terror and she let loose a blood curdling scream before falling backwards off her chair.

Undeterred by the sudden scream ‘king Thorax’ lifted his hoof triumphantly, striking a powerful pose. “My changelings are stronger, faster and more magical than the average pony. Our strength of arms and feats of magic easily eclipse the weak and sniveling ponies of Equestria! Long have we waited and much have we endured, all so that we may infiltrate this loving land but soon, very soon, we will do the will of our queen and Equestria will be ours, and then, the world!” The king threw back his head and crackle only for ‘king thorax’s’ voice to gain a more familiar sound to it.

Twilight, who had just picked herself up off the ground, gasped at the sound before suddenly slumping to the floor once more, having fainted. Nightmare king Thorax mad laughter suddenly stopped and he looked down at the purple mare with concern. “Was it too much?”

Cadence shook her head and got out of her chair, intent on helping her sister in law. “Yes auntie. I think that was, as they say, a little over the top.”

Shining Armor helped his wife lift his dazed and confused sister back into her chair. “I agree, perhaps you could take off that illusion now?”

‘Thorax’ shrugged. “Only if you understand my point young captain.”

Cadence flapped a wing in front of a recovering Twilight whose head rolled about on her shoulders while her eyes flickered open. “Whuh?”

The unicorn frowned and plunked back down in his chair. “You know, just because you’re older than everyone doesn't mean you can just add young before everypony’s name. It's kind of patronizing you know.”

Luna shrugged, gossamer wings buzzing. “You ponies are young, when you get to my age you earn a few privileges.” She leaned forward suddenly, glaring at the stallion. “Do you understand the gravity of our situation, young Armor?”

Shining Armor did his best to hold back a sigh. “Yes Luna, I am aware that there are some tough changelings out there but without a hive mind what can they really do?”

King Thorax discarded his disguise, revealing the form of princess Luna once more, who smirked and looked back at her sister. “Should you tell him or I?”

Celestia chuckled at her sister’s continued antics and gestured invitingly towards the trio of ponies on the other side of the table. “By all means, go ahead.”

“They do.” Luna announced proudly.

“They do what?” Twilight asked nervously.

“Have a hive mind.”

“Whuh?” Twilight muttered.

“But I thought they lost the connection to their former queen?” Cadence added.

“Yes but I’m afraid that did not stop them from developing their own. One powerful enough that our limited psychic ability cannot discern who it all connects to.” Celestia steepled her hooves ominously. “I should not have to tell you just how concerning this is.”

Again, Shining Armor sighed. “Alright so there are couple of strong ex-changelings that might have their own hive mind, how exactly is this situation worthy of a summoning to the war room.”

Luna smirked. “He keeps walking into these doesn't he sister?”

“Indeed sister. Though I would ask you let me handle this one as I think I have something fittingly dramatic.” Celestia remarked with a crooked smile.

Luna giggled giddily and pranced over to her sister before hopping off the table and flopping into her chair. “Do go ahead, dear sister.”

The other three ponies glanced at one another nervously, a darkly serious expression spreading across Celestia’s face. “I’m afraid we have yet to impart on you three the true depth of the danger Equestria is now in.” her horn lit once more and a fourth graph was added beside the two. This one was much different, every bar of the graph was significantly higher and the bar indicating the potency of the user’s harmony magic was much, much higher than average.

Twilight gasped, her eyes going wide before glancing from the graph back to Celestia. “Is that your signature?”

Celestia shook her head. “Yes and no. This is the average signature across known alicorns, note how similar our magic appears in the neulings and most specifically their harmony magic.”

Cadence frowned, tapping a hoof to her chin. “It looks similar but not that similar, they are still much weaker than the average alicorn.”

“True, but combine this with the hive mind that allows them to pool their magic and focus it into a single individual and…” Celestia’s horn lit once more and slowly the nueling graph morphed into one that much more closely resembled the last one, eliciting a gasp from all three of the other ponies.

Luna nodded solemnly. “Now you understand just how much peril we are in. Couple this with the incredibly high rate at which changelings breed…”

Shining Armor gulped and tugged at a collar that was not actually there. “That's scary, but what exactly does that mean?”

Celestia chuckled darkly. “I will save you the dramatics my sister so loves-” Luna stuck her tongue out at her sister. “- and just tell you what this means. With their newfound ability with harmony magic these neulings could potentially pull the very moon from the sky.”

The three ponies recoiled as if struck with Twilight nearly fainting as she realized just how dangerous things had truly become. “Or the sun!” Luna added, quite unhelpfully.

After several tense moments of stunned panic Twilight suddenly shot out of her chair. “Oh my gosh what are we going to do?!”

Celestia put her hoof up, gently biding the alicorn to sit back down, which she obediently did. “Calm dear Twilight, my sister and I have a plan but I warn you it is rather… unorthodox.”

Cadence cocked her head. “How unorthodox?”

“However unorthodox it is, I for one am wholly behind it. We must do everything we can to stop this plot before it has the potential to come to fruition.” Shining Armor declared.

The two eldest alicorns shared small grin at the male’s choice of words.

“Well I’m going to be frank with you my little ponies, what I’m asking of you may go against your morals but I would ask that you hear us out.” Celestia added.

Shining Armor smiled confidently. “Whatever it is, Cadence and I are behind you one hundred percent. There is no sacrifice too great for the safety of Equestria and the world, right sweetie?”

Cadence narrowed her eyes at the two alicorns across the table, a thin sliver of suspicion worming its way into her thoughts. “Let's just wait until we hear the plan before we commit to anything.”

Celestia wiped away the four graphs and scratched her neck awkwardly. “Well, we are going to need more ponies capable of accessing the same level of harmony magic as us…”

Twilight raised an eyebrow. “But that would mean decades of teaching. Selecting the best students and placing them directly under a respective alicorn in hopes that they are able to develop into their full potential. But that would take far too long and with Flurry heart being so young she would be the best option...” Twilight blushed suddenly, both hooves shooting over her mouth. “Unless you mean to-”

“Yes.” Luna slammed her hoof down on the table. “We will make more alicorns!”

Shining Armor scratched his forehead awkwardly. “What, you mean like cloning or… why are you looking at me like that?”

Cadence rolled her eyes and leaned close to her husband, whispering in his ear. The stallion’s expression went from confused, to even more confused then all at once grew bright red, his eyes instantly flying to his sister in shock. “Bwuh?” He muttered, aghast.

Celestia chuckled, a slight blush coloring her cheeks. “I can only assume you have stumbled onto the crux of our plan.” He nodded to the still baffled unicorn. “Yes, we were hoping you would be so kind as to assist us in this matter.”

The darker alicorn tossed her head back and laughed. “The expression on thine face is most amusing! Truly you should not be so surprised! You are one of the few stallions in all of history to be capable of impregnating an alicorn and in such short amount of time as well! Why your wedding feels like it was only yesterday.”

Cadence coughed awkwardly while Shining rubbed the back of his neck. Celestia took the opportunity to stand and shoot the couple a wide, confident smile. “I assure you, this is completely necessary. The changelings are able to replicate a fraction of anypony’s magic, meaning they might be able to do the unthinkable. We however cannot replicate this ability and so we must do this the old fashioned way. Any offspring Luna or I have will be imbued with the same ability to tap into and bolster our magic. Thus enabling them to assist us, should these foul creatures ever attempt to rest control of the heavenly bodies.”

Twilight cocked her head and opened her mouth to speak but found that Celestia suddenly shot her a sudden glare, the intensity of which made Twilight’s mouth clamp shut. Celestia tilted her head to the left, towards the door, urging the mare to stay silent until they could speak again later. Twilight frowned but nodded back to the alicorn.

Meanwhile Luna was busy rolling her eyes and scoffing at the stallion. “We don't have the time to gather sperm from all the males in Equestria and individually test their viability in creating Alicorns. You, young Armor, have been shown to be capable of impregnating an alicorn and ‘tis all that matters.”

Shining gulped, glancing nervously at his wife, a thin bead of sweat rolling down the side of his face. “Surely we could devise some kind of spell that would enable us to find a pony capable of such a thing, right honey?”

“I don't know Sweetie, Luna makes a good point.” Cadence remarked with a smirk.

“Of course I make a good, wait what?” Shining Armor muttered.

Cadence rolled her eyes. “I studied Alicorn fertility before we tried for Flurry heart and found that even when an alicorn becomes pregnant the foal is almost always mortal. Flurry is the first who wasn’t.” She crossed her hooves. “Which makes you one in a million out of an already small number of ponies. The chances of finding another pony capable of what you have accomplished are infinitesimal and might not even be possible.” Cadence announced with a hint of pride.

Shining Armor’s eyes narrowed and he peered intensely at his wife. “Are you saying that I could-”

Cadence blushed and held up a hoof. “I’m saying that if we go through with this plan, they would need you, but I have one question first.”

Celestia smiled gently. “Of course, ask away.”

“Why do you need me and Twilight?”

Luna cocked her head. “Why to make more alicorns of course. I thought that much was obvious.”

Twilight gulped, her face growing bright red as she slowly turned to her brother, while Shining Armor similarity changed color and turned to look at her. “You want us to… Ohstarsabove.” Twilight muttered, fanning herself with a wing.”

“Calm yourself, my little ponies. We are not saying you have to, but if we are unable to conceive of a suitable number then it may be necessary. But only if you want to. We are not going to make you two do anything you don't wish to.” Celestia smiled confidently. “I was actually hoping that Twilight would be able to assist us with the necessary planning and spells to help ensure everything goes smoothly.”

Twilight breathed a sigh of relief, her face still beet red. “I can do that… I think.”

Luna nodded to the smaller alicorn. “You have our thanks young Twilight. Though Cadence may be more experienced in the ways of love your penchant for organization and spell casting may be what saves Equestria!”

“By getting knocked up by my brother.” Twilight said under breath.

“What was that?”

Twilight shook her head. “Nothing.”

“Let us get back onto the task at hoof.” Celestia turned to the sole male in the room. “What do you say, Shining Armor.

The male wasn't sure why Celestia had put such inflection on his name. Partly because the situation hardly warranted such an emphasis and partly because Celestia was his first crush and she hardly needed to be sexy to have him on board with any plan that included a night in her bedchambers. The male gulped and looked from the steamy eyed alicorn across from him to the rather cross alicorn eying him up next to him. This entire plan and potentially the fate of the world now rested on this singular expression that was now on his wife’s face. From that expression he would be able to tell if he was about to fulfill every teenage stallion’s fantasy or spend his foreseeable future relegated to the dog house.

“So…” Shining gulped. “What do you think, hon?”

Cadence’s expression was one of withdrawn contemplation, meaning Shining’s hopes weren't dead yet, but there was something else in that expression, something strange that made gave him pause. It was that hint of impishness, of a small, almost non existent smile that threatened to bloom across the alicorn’s face at a moment’s notice.

Shining gulped once more and wiped the sweat from his brow, the contemplation slowly left his wife’s face and sure enough, that impish smile won out. “He’ll do it. On one condition.”

“He will?” Celestia asked giddly.

I will?” Shining Armor echoed.

“He will. If you are willing to have an orgy.” Cadence said simply, eliciting a choked gasp from the lavender mare to her right.

Luna nodded sagely. “Of course dear Cadence.”

Celestia seemed slightly less convinced and raised an eyebrow at the mare’s suggestion. “Why, exactly?”

Cadance smirked and lifted her nose proudly. “So I can make sure you don't try anything sneaky and to prove once and for all that I am the most sensual princess in Equestria.”

Celestia shared a laugh with her sister while Twilight went through a gambit of emotions ranging from confusion, to curiosity and finally settling on shameful interest. Shining Armor meanwhile was just sitting there, gaping like a fish, his mind unable to think of anything other then-

I’m going to have an orgy with the princesses’, like all the princesses.

Celestia shared a smile with her sister before pulling out a small stack of papers from a pocket dimension. “Excellent. I think we will take a short break then and meet back up in a week, this should give us ample time to ensure our schedules are clear and for Twilight to organize everything. As well as giving us enough time for the necessary spells and potions to be made ready.”

“Wait, what spells and potions?” She glanced down the page only to recoil slightly. “Why do we need so many?” Twilight floated the paper over to her and glanced down the laundry list of items Celestia had written down. “There are over thirty spells and twenty six potions here!”

Celestia coughed awkwardly. “Yes well, I was hoping we would be carrying at least three foals each in order to stay ahead of the nuelings long enough for another, more permanent solution to be discovered.”

“Which would necessitate some helpful spells to increase the amount of foals each mare can carry…” Cadence grinned. “I like it.”

“Now that we are all agreed do you have any other questions?” Luna asked before nodding at Twilight. “Yes, what is it Twilight?”

“I’m assuming you will be giving me all the necessary reading material for these spells? There are quite a few…”

Celestia smiled and pointed down on the sheet, indicating the last most page with her magic. “As you can see there is an entire bibliography at the back.”

Twilight sighed, already beginning to work things out in her head.

Cadence clapped her hooves together suddenly, knocking Shining out of his stupor. “Oh this is so exciting! Little Flurry Heart is going to get so many brothers and sisters.”

“Hopefully. That is the plan after all. Now if you are all agreed, we should probably get back to our day and prepare to meet back at the castle next week saturday, alright?” Celestia offered, glancing around the room.

Luna was beside herself with joy and stared at Celestia with what could only be described as lecherous intent. Shining Armor seemed only half snapped out of his stupor and he blinked owlishly, his mouth at least closed now. Twilight was busying herself reading the aforementioned bibliography Celestia had given her, a small blush still present on her face. All while Cadence seemed absolutely overjoyed and was taking away at Shining Armor who seemed only dimly aware of the conversation he was a part of. Celestia could tell her niece was thrilled with the news that her daughter would gain many new brothers and sisters, but Celestia had known the mare long enough to tell that wasn't the sole reason she was so excited.

Taking the silence as affirmation Celestia nodded to Luna who quickly got up and followed her to the door. “If that's everything, we have much to attend in order to make this all a reality and very little time to do it.”

Luna gave a slight bow towards the couple. “You have our, and Equestria’s deepest gratitude young sir Armor and Cadence.”

Cadence gave them an enthusiastic wave. “Don't worry auntie, we will have everything ready for the day, won't we Twilight?”

“-but that won't work with the second potion because the hydra mucus in it would counteract-” Twilight spared only a moment to give the diararch’s a nod of affirmation before diving back into her planning.

Celestia shook her head and chuckled, turning to her sister. “Shall we retreat to our quarters, sister?”

“Indubitably, dear sister.” Luna said with a smirk, before the pair lit their horns and vanished in a flash.

Twilight looked up and blinked. “Oh, right. I should probably get started on this.” Then without even a word of goodbye she disappeared in a flash, leaving Shining Armor and Cadence alone.

“Oh thank the stars!” Cadence cried before leaping at her still semi catatonic husband...

...Who merely toppled off his chair, barely catching the alicorn in time. Cadence furiously pressed her lips against her husband’s, all but demanding he reciprocate. The stunned unicorn gained his wits quickly and eagerly kissed back, lying on his back and making out with his wife for several minutes before she suddenly pulled away, breathing heavily.

“You, me, right here, right now.” Cadence all but commanded.

Shining Armor gulped and glanced towards the door, that could open at any minute. “But Cadence someone could walk in and…”

Cadence trotted over to the table and lit her horn. The table glowed softly before blinking red. “There, nopony will enter unless it's an emergency, now then…”

His wife trotted slowly at the stuttering unicorn, an impish smile on her lips and a sexy shake to her hips. From his position still on the floor Shining Armor was granted an unobstructed view of everything his wife was putting on display, from her shapely hips to her swaying flanks to even the large breasts that swinging between her legs like twin pendulums. The male couldn't help but gulp at the sight, motherhood had treated his wife very well, swelling her already pornstar level curves to almost ridiculous levels.

Her eyes contained a predatory gleam to them and she licked her lips like some sort of great predator. She stopped just before the stallion still lying on the ground, his cock beginning to emerge from his sheathe.

The stallion gulped.


Alone in their room the two alicorns shared a steamy glance before lunging at each other like two great predators about to make a meal out of the other. The two alicorns connected in a mishmash of legs and tongues. The smaller alicorn seemed to be losing at first but a deft maneuver brought her out on top in the end, pinning the larger alicorn beneath her.

Luna pulled her lips away from her sister’s and smiles triumphantly. “Huzzah, bested once more! I would suggest going on a diet if I didn't love those gorgeous flanks of yours so much.”

Celestia blushed, giggling shyly. “I’ve seen the way you look at me dear sister and I’m pretty sure you would stuff me full of cake before you would convince me to join you during your nightly runs.”

Luna blushed, settling into her sister’s embrace and smiling contently. “True, the thought has crossed my mind…”

“I must say I’m rather proud of how you handled things back there. A little on the dramatic side but I think you convinced just about everypony.”

Luna chuckled. “All save for young Twilight Sparkle, it seems as though she trusts you to explain things to her at a later date.”

“Yes, well she has always been rather intuitive, but fortunately for us she doesn't keep a lock on her diary and I’m sure a short conversation will be all that is required to bring her over to our way of thinking.”

“Yes, that's wonderful.” Luna remarked blandly.

The larger alicorn gently brushed the mane from her sister’s face, revealing a strange and tortured expression just beneath. “Is something bothering you Luna?”

“I… can't help but wonder what will transpire after Shining Armor discovers our ruse.”

Celestia rolled her eyes. “Even if he did, I don't think he would care. He had a massive crush on me when he first started working here and I’ve seen the sidelong glances he gives you.”

Luna scoffed, throwing her nose in the air. “I care not for what that petty male thinks of me.”

“And yet you worry about what he may think if he were to discover that we weren't entirely truthful with him.” Celestia said with a smirk.

Luna blushed. “Yes well, the heart is a strange thing.”

“It is indeed my love.”


Now alone, with only a good book for company, Twilight Sparkle leafed through the text with the pace of a predator chasing down a juicy morsel. The last tidbit of information she needed to ensure her endurance spell would work was elusive and the original author seemed hell bent on rambling for pages upon pages without giving her the math she needed.

With a sigh she dropped the book to the table, then planted her face in the center of it, groaning in mock pain.Then, all of a sudden a strange feeling surged in her breast and her mind went back to that moment where her and her brother’s eyes met at the table.

They had been glassy and mirror like, reflecting the same hidden intensity that burned within the mare’s heart and all at once the same arousal she had felt in that moment returned with a vengeance. Once more the mare groaned in annoyance, this time due to the spreading warmth that wet her chair.

“Augh, why does it feel like I’m missing out on something?” She asked the empty room, when the library gave her no answers she cast a quick suppression spell on herself and went back to work, trying desperately to bury her arousal amidst her scholarly pursuit.
