Chapter 9

Individual additional tags: N/A
Other additional tags: Happens in Gallus's test during 'What Lies Beneath', consider it a deleted scene with slight alterations to the canon events. A desperate griffon finding relief after escaping from his test before meeting up with Smolder. Just a twist on the scene with desperation added in. Mostly just fetish fuel, so it might be rather rushed. Nothing sexual implied at all, so no foalcon.

"Fail the test and here you will stay!"

After that ominous warning, our headmare, despite being a sparkly version of herself, disappeared in a flash of light. Blinding white filled my vision as I felt myself being spirited away from my friends, the anxiety in my chest growing with every passing second.

When my vision finally cleared, I was in a small, crystalline room, with rays of light projected from seemingly nowhere. My long-time fear of small spaces quickly caught up to me, but that wasn't even my main concern today. A sharp pain in my lower half reminded of my true crisis, the one reason that I wanted to get out of here as quickly as possible.

I usually visited the bathroom immediately after school ends, and I wouldn't need another until the night comes. Griffons don't need to pee as frequently as ponies do, and they have only about half the number of bathroom visits a pony makes in a day. I don't even need to have what they call a "morning pee" - the long periods of dehydration in my sleep would do little to fill my bladder. A release during midday and one final leak before bed was usually enough for a griffon, even a young one like me.

Unfortunately, that also meant that I wasn't used to skipping the intended bathroom visits. I would have gone to take care of my business today as well, except for the fact that my mind was too caught up with the dumb test coming up soon. I headed straight to the library with the rest of the group, and studying, no matter how little I remember, meant that my mind had postponed the need of taking a leak completely. The feeling of desperation never showed up until we climbed down the trap door, and by the time I realized it, which was too late, there was no time left for me to piss.

Now, the effects of a missed bathroom break was finally catching up to me. There was a sharp pain in my bladder, begging me to just let everything that I have been carrying around since morning go. I swallowed as I took in my surroundings again. I have to find some way to exit this enclosed space, look for my friends and then find relief for myself...

While I was pondering over my thoughts, my wings accidentally touched a ray of light, which dissipated into nothingness upon contact. I stiffened as the walls started to move closer to me. My fear was starting to make itself known, but I was more consciously aware of the fact that I was close to wetting myself out of shock.

Okay... I must find an exit. At least I can move those rocks, right? I bent down slightly to move a crystal rock out of the way, an action that pained my bladder a lot. I winced visibly as I shoved the rock aside, trying to keep the ocean within me from breaking free. Worst of all, my back foot accidentally touched another of those rays, causing the room to cave in even further.

With the fear of the walls closing in on me and the pressure above my crotch, I was starting to feel devastated. Grabbing my crotch, I frantically went through possible solutions in my mind. I could be crushed to death by these crystal surfaces - or I could end up wetting myself like a baby because I forgotten my regular bathroom schedule. What puzzled me was that I was more afraid of the second possibility than I was of the first. Even though I could argue that my pride was leaving me no room to think that I could be excused if I had an accident at this age, but I should have been more concerned about the lack of actual room the space around me was providing. It made no sense.

"Okay... this is just a test... there's got to be a way out."

Squinting slightly at the small gap that was visible, I noticed that the rays of light were different in color - some of them were blue, while some of them pink. It was only then I realized that I had been touching the pink rays all along...

I was scared that what I was going to do was going to make the roof cave in completely, or risk being trapped down here forever, but sitting around isn't going to help me either. We're either trapped down in this stupid tree cave forever... and it'll certainly be unpleasant. Unpleasantly wet, for me. No matter what, I had to do something. Reaching out, I hesitantly lifted my claw and touched a ray of blue light.

To my surprise and delight, the cave walls started to move further away.

"Ha ha!" Nothing can bring this griffon down! Not when he has a full bladder. I winced after my temporary moment of victory. I wasn't going to last much longer - in fact, I don't recall a moment in the past when I had been this desperate. Being someone who doesn't really care about schedules, I would admit that I had quite a few close calls in my life when it came to bathroom breaks, but none of them had ever made me wish for a bathroom so badly. Angling myself, I leaped slightly into the air to hit another blue ray.

Bad idea. When I landed, my long tail had accidentally swept up another pink ray, causing the room to shrink again. Worse yet, the motion had added unnecessary pressure to my bursting bladder, which caused a spurt of urine to escape and hit the floor.

Horrified, I looked down to examine the damage I had caused. The yellow liquid was indistinguishable from water on the rocky floor... but it was no less scary. I knew I had to go really badly, and I'd rather get out of this terrible, small room before I gave in to this bodily function. However, with every step I took, the liquid waste sloshed around heavily in my bladder and I was almost sure that I'd end up dumping all of it in this cave before I made it out.

Fortune favored me on that day though, cause with some difficulty (due to the unending anxiety and constant reminder that I already almost had an accident) and a few more mishaps, I hit the last blue ray, panting and gasping as I did so. Sighing, I slowly climbed out of the tiny space, with each movement being torture to my bladder which was practically screaming for release. Nothing was more tempting than getting to enjoy a long piss at the moment, not even finally beating Ocellus in an exam (which, technically, is impossible).

The small cave closed up completely behind me after I exited it, almost startling me into wetting myself again. With a small sigh of relief, I looked around me and somehow, I knew the way back to the entrance of the tree. I took a few steps forward, before another pang in my bladder halted me in my tracks.

... No, this was impossible. Something told me that my friends were not out of their own predicaments yet, whatever they might be. Even if I make it to the entrance completely dry, there was no guarantee that I would be granted bathroom access immediately. Wetting myself was bad enough, but such a thing happening in front of my friends was unacceptable. I didn't want to go back to them with a full bladder and risk emptying it while they watch.

Besides, I wasn't in any danger of being crushed to death now. I was free to find some well-needed relief before I made my way back. No one would even know. It was not like I had any trouble doing my business outside - I'm a male griffon, after all, and public urination isn't at all frowned upon in Griffonstone, as long as you don't do it where everyone could see you. And I needed to go now. All I needed was a little bit more privacy, and I can relieve myself in peace.

With my mind made up, I looked around to see if there were any empty caves for me to walk into and empty my bladder. I couldn't risk walking along the correct path, in case I encounter any of my friends on the way. I would very much prefer it if I did my business quietly and stealthily. I may not have problem with peeing outside of an actual toilet, but that didn't mean I had to announce it to the world.

Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a tunnel that wasn't previously there. I knew it didn't lead to the exit, and I was quite sure that it wasn't there a few minutes ago... oh well. I was not one to question a miracle, especially not one that particularly favored my current condition. I moved towards the tunnel, not bothering to fly as I knew that I might lose control entirely and spill everything in the air.

I stepped into another crystalline room not unlike the one I was trapped in moments ago - but it didn't have those claustrophobic walls closing in on me, and it was devoid of colorful beams. It was a wide but still relatively small room, with a dead end and a particularly large rock in the middle. Upon closer look, a deep hole was carved into the rock. I raised my eyebrow at the fact that I just wandered into a cave with a perfect makeshift urinal for me to use. Did this tunnel just... open up for me?

Not bothering to question any further, I moved over to the rock, which was just about the right size and height for me. I stood on my hind legs before exposing my member, aiming it over the rock. A light pink dusted my cheeks as the pinkish rod came into view. It wasn't like I had never been this... naked in public before, and using a public school toilet meant having to expose myself every time I took a leak. Yet, somehow, revealing my private bits now made me feel slightly embarrassed.

Well, there was no time for personal comfort. This was as close to a toilet as I could possibly afford right now. I inhaled deeply, ready to let go and be free of the liquid burden I was carrying...

... except that even after a few seconds, I didn't start peeing at all.

Come on, Gallus! You conquered your worst fear, your bladder is about to explode, surely you can do something as simple as urinating in public... But no matter how much I tried to reassure myself, I found all my bladder muscles stiff and frozen in place, unwilling to relax.

... Oh. Maybe because I still had some qualms about relieving myself in a mysterious cave that just opened up for me out of nowhere. I hated to admit this, but I was concerned that Headmare Twilight, if she had opened this tunnel at the first place, would catch me peeing and sabotaging her property.

But everything seemed so perfectly laid out, as if the rocks were begging for me to dump my golden ocean on them... if whoever opened this tunnel up for me, they must have wanted me to use it, right? Though I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask...

"Uh, hey?" I called out, my voice echoing slightly as it hit the walls. No response. "Um, Headmare Twilight, or whoever that's responsible for opening this tunnel, you do know I need to piss badly, right? If you did, and that you provided me a toilet, I feel the need to say thank you. If you didn't... I'm really sorry, but I can't hold it any longer. I hope you don't mind if I water these rocks for a bit."

With those words, the dam finally broke as my insecurities were put to rest. My bladder did not wait a second longer before forcefully ejecting all of its contents into the rock urinal, turning my attention to the mess I was making.

A strong, thick stream of urine escaped my member and landed in an arc in the rock. There was no buildup to my relief - the stream started out thick and strong, creating a loud hiss as it made its way out. It was only then that I noticed that the walls around it were tall enough to make sure that the excessive liquid waste would not spray out, and that it was still low enough for me to use. Alright, this was definitely made for me, I thought, satisfied as I continued to relieve myself.

It was euphoria, watching my yellow piss become indistinguishable as it made contact with the rock surface, and I couldn't help but sigh in extreme relief. The release did wonders to my strained bladder, and soon all feelings of dread, anxiety and pain were washed away with the liquid waste I was expelling from my body. I didn't even have to aim - my urine stream landed perfectly in the middle of the urinal that was so generously provided for me.

With another contented sigh, I closed my eyes and let the sound of my piss splashing onto the rock reach my ears. Despite the fact that the urinal had almost everything I needed, it seemed to not be soundproof, as I was pretty sure that the sound of my peeing could be heard from even a mile away, if there was anyone around at all. Somehow, I didn't care anymore, and I was satisfied that my stream was splattering loudly, a sign of my extreme desperation prior to this release. At this point, I probably wouldn't even have minded if someone was holding a camera and taking in the entire scene, as my body was completely numb, overwhelmed by the pleasure.

It wasn't just the size of the stream that I was producing - the sheer amount of liquid waste that was pouring out of me was enough of an indicator that I would have exploded if I waited even a few more seconds. Griffon bladders were nowhere near massive, but they could hold an impressive amount when put to work. I was only mildly surprised that my urine puddle had grown so huge that it was starting to fill up the rock, the splattering sound turning into the sound of water hitting water rather quickly. If I hadn't known better, it would have sounded exactly like pissing in a real toilet.

Sadly, all good moments had to end, and for a male, the process of urination often ended faster than you'd expect, even when your bladder is exceptionally full. The yellow arc eventually weakened and slowed down, up to a point where I had to adjust my aim so that it was just a jet of urine shooting straight at the quarter-full urinal. After a few more squirts, my bladder was finally empty. Satisfied, I gave my member a few shakes to dislodge any clinging drops of pee before standing back on four legs again.

I looked in the urinal and once more, I was impressed at the amount I was able to produce. The entire space was almost half-full with the vivid yellow liquid, which emitted a strong smell. I sighed in relief, happy to be free of the dreadful pressure that was above my crotch a minute ago. I must have peed for at least one whole minute, to be able to fill this makeshift toilet up so quickly. I was also thankful that I had the privilege of being a male griffon, which was the ability to relieve themselves at almost any place.

With one last look at the mess I made, I flapped my wings and flew out of the cave, now with the pressure alleviated. I still had to find my friends before the exit closed off... and now that the pleasure was no longer clouding my senses, the feeling of embarrassment came back as I recalled what I was doing a while ago. I would rather be as far away from the crime scene as possible.

As I left, I swore I heard the sound of rocks moving and shifting to close up the tunnel behind me, but I wasn't sure. I didn't bother to check, either.

Author's Note

Wait... I'm back?

Probably not for long.

I'm really, really busy and when I rewatched a few episodes, this came into my mind, I just had to write it down :P I would probably be releasing the POVs of all the Young Six, and then I'd probably go into hibernation again. In fact, I probably won't be very active at all for this year.

Please keep in mind that because they are still mostly cut scenes from the original clips, all of them will be relatively short (and maybe a little rushed) and of slightly lower quality than my usual chapters.

Until I have more free time, enjoy! (I'm still no good at writing male characters, rip)
