Starlight stood in the library as Trixie walked around to inspect her. "I'd say I'm rather proud of my work" The showmare cooed giving Starlight a flirtatious smile & wink. Starlight just scrunched up her nose. "Oh don't be like that" Trixie pouted. "You know you look adorable!"

Starlight tried to resist but gave a small blush and smile none the less. Trixie wasn't wrong mind you, the soft yellow t-shirt she was wearing fit like a glove and the dark denim jeans practically looked like they had been painted. Mixed with the matching ear-rings there were plenty of mares and stallions that would view Starlight as a knock-out. "T-Thanks I guess" Starlight blushed. "No you idiot why are you thanking the mare that sexually tortured you last night. Your horn is free you could zap her, obliterate her, but...but" Starlight gulped as she continued her internal monologue. "I signed that damndable contract, if I break it.....and even if by some miracle it was a fake Trixie still has all those toys and tools....and I....I" Starlight gripped herself tightly. "I don't want to feel that kind of pain ever again" Starlight shuddered.

"Earth to Starlight" Trixie huffed snapping her fingers in front of the petite pink unicorns muzzle. Starlight snapping back to reality.

"I-I'm sorry mistress" Starlight stuttered. "I-I was lost in thought" The mare admitted.

"Oh Glim-Glam you poor dear" Trixie teased as she patted her on the head. "Your my pet now, so you should just leave all the thinking to me, ok" The cocky show mare sang in an overly innocent tone.

"Y-yes mistress" Starlight replied "Sorry mistress" She apologized bowing her head a bit a drooping her ears. Trixie letting out a devious smile admitingly somewhat delighted to see the usually stubborn and impulsive pony already beggining to fall in line.

"You want to what!?" Twilight asked in surprise staring in disbelief at the dark furred mare sitting across from here.

"I would like to work as a security guard at your school" Tempest bluntly stated. "My travels across Equestria have been fun and enlightening, true." Tempest began. "But living alone out on the road going from town to town, city to city can wear ones spirit down" Tempest chuckled. "When I was with the Storm King my single minded goal kept me going, my obsession justified my existence." Tempest sighed. "But now even as I am helping others I find myself feeling empty and without true purpose." Tempest continued. "I know it may sound silly to you princess, but I wish to have a place to call home again, wish to have a true purpose. And I was hoping my home could be Ponyville. And that my new purpose could be to serve you and protect both you and your students" Tempest finished giving Twilight a soft smile staring at the young alcorn with her deep alluring eyes.

Twilight just blushed and gave an awkward chuckle as she took a deep breath and a quick sip of her tea. "I, I am flattered Tempest truly I am" Twilight blushed "And I'd be remiss if I didn't admit I do have times I worry about the safety of my friends and students." Twilight admitted. "But are you sure working for me here in Ponyville is what you want?" Twilight asked. "You've traveled the world, helped conquer entire nations. Wouldn't being a security guard to a neurotic princess and a bunch of teen and twenty something creatures be a bit boring to you?" Twilight nervously chuckled once more.

"I am quite certain" Tempest replied without any hesitation. "I have my eyes set on you princess, and you know how I can get when I have an obsession" Tempest smirked as she raised an eyebrow.

"Oh is that true." Twilight teased. "Well I guess I'll have to say yes then" Twilight chuckled as she moved her hand across the table until it was touching tempests. "Fizzlepop Berrytwist: Captain of The Friendship Guard, he has a nice ring to it" Twilight teased.

"Please princess, you know I prefer Tempest" the dark mare replied giving a soft smile. The two's moment interrupted by the sound of the nearby clock tower.

"Oh my goodness it's already 9 A.M. I need to get to the school!" Twilight panicked as she jumped up and began to run towards the school she was supposed to be head mare of.

"Princess, wait for me!" Tempest called out as she to jumped up and began to run along to catch up to the surprisingly quick alicorn princess.

"You know your office is rather nice!" Trixie exclaimed as she looked around Starlight's student councilor room before she plopped down on the comfy green couch across from her pet. "Maybe you could convince your dear head mare Sprinkle to get me one" Trixie teased sticking out her tounge at Starlight. "Oh and you remember your instructions, right?" Trixie asked her tone turning quite serious.

"Y-yes mistress" Starlight stated nodding her head. "When Twilight comes by to say hi and ask how things were I say I'm fine and we had an excellent weekend." Starlight continued. "If she asks about the ear rings I'll just say we had a few too many ciders at the bar and we both got piercings on impulse, but that yours isn't in the most.....appropriate place." Starlight blushed. "And then after some bickering or small talk I'll say how I promised to go on a picnic with you and ask if I can take off early." Starlight finished.

"Good girl!" Trixie sang. You remembered it all. Now let's see how good of an actress you really are." She taunted as she pointed to the door, Starlight hearing steps coming down the door. And as if on que Twilight appeared in the room and to Starlight's dismay Tempest was right behind her.

"Oh, um...hey Twilight!" Trixie awkwardly smiled. "What brings you over, need some counseling" the mare nervously joked.

"Oh no, nothing like that" Twilight chuckled. "I just wanted to come by and say hi, and to apologize for running late. I had expected to met you and Spike at the castle before school started but I got...distracted." Twilight blushed as she rubbed the back of her head.

"Haha, I can see that" Starlight gulped waving at Tempest. The dark mare just waving back and giving her a devious grin.

"Yea, Tempest offered to help out and be a security guard for the school and a guard for us at the castle, can you believe it!?" The naive purple alicorn excitedly exclaimed.

"Hehe, no I can't" Starlight awkwardly laughed. Great now not only would she be under Trixie's thumb but under the watchful eye of the terror known as Tempest shadow!? "That's great" She lied.

"I know right!?" Twilight agreed "One of the toughest ponies in Equestria guarding the students, bet Chrysalis or Tirek would think twice if they saw her in their path" Twilight complimented causing Tempest to blush.

"Yea, they sure would" Starlight agreed trying to hide the disgust in her voice.

"Oh my gosh Starlight! What happened to your ear!?" Twilight asked in shock as she had just noticed the three ear rings on her first student's left ear.

"W-well you see" Starlight gulped. "There was cider and bad decisions and..." Starlight began to sweat.

"It was my fault Sparkle" A voice came from behind causing Twilight to jump.

"Trixie!? When did you get here?" Twilight asked in surprise.

"Seriously I've been here the whole time and you just now notice? Humph pretty rude for a princess!" Trixie taunted.

"Oh, ah...sorry" Twilight sheepishly apologized. "But wait....what do you mean this is your fault?" Twilight asked her tone getting much more stern

"Starlight and I wanted to have fun while you were gone and we may have had a few too many jugs of cider and gotten some...regrettable and impulse based piercings" Trixie chuckled. "But at least Starlight got her's on her ear. You do not want to know where mine is!" Trixie cackled.

"Where yours is?" Twilight repeated before realizing it must have been somewhere inappropriate. "Oh my" she exclaimed. "W-well you're both grown mares and what you do with your bodies is none of my business, so....I...I guess I should go and check on Applejack and make sure the students are paying attention and her's Apple Pie baking class, I'll see you two at the castle tonight I guess" The head mare finished as she began to walk off.

"Oh by the way Head Mare Twibright" Trixie cooed. "I hope it's not an inconvenience but Star and I were going to go on a picnic for lunch and we might just stay out all day? Is that OK?" Trixie asked in a ridiculously sweet and innocent way.

Twilight just sighed but not wanting to be part of an admitingly awkward conversation any longer she just told the two it would be fine as long as they could get Maud to cover for Starlight again as she and Tempest left the room.

Trixie giggled in delight as the two girls made their way to her special spot in WhiteTail Woods. Starlight following behind.

"Are we almost there yet?" Starlight asked in a tired huff. "We've been walking forever!" Starlight moaned.

"Almost" Trixie chuckled. "Infact it's right around her bend." She smiled as the two turned into a small secluded area where a waterfall and a small pond lay.

"Wow!" Starlight exclaimed. "This is actually really nice!" She smiled looking back at Trixie. "So, what's for lunch, got a meal hiding in that hat of yours?" She asked with a chuckle as a breeze blew through her mane. It felt nice, and she was pleased so far that all things concerned the day felt, almost normal. Maybe last night was just....a fluke.

All of a sudden Trixie began to manically cackle. "Oh my poor pet, the only thing on the menu is you. And I'm sure, you'll be delicious." Trixie cackled as she used her magic to force the magical limiter back onto Starlights horn the surprise causing the mare to fall back looking at Trixie with pleading eyes begging her not to do what she was thinking, but it was too late, The show mate had already magically removed Starlight's cloths and latched a black leather collar on to her neck and a leash she could use to tug her along. "Today your meal will be another lesson from your mistress, sound fun?" Trixie cackled. "And my meal will be the sweet taste of your juices, or your tears....whichever comes first." Trixie teased as she licked her lips. Starlight just gulped as she looked up at Trixie. She was about to be forced to engage in what would most likely be degrading and even painful sexual acts and once again there was nothing she could do.

Back at the school.

"Ms. Maud, are you listening?" The student asked.

"Yes, you have trouble making friends because you don't think you're cook enough, correct?:

"Yea" the young colt pouted.

"Then my advice would be to start acting more like a rock, everyone knows rocks are cool, right boulder?" Maud stated in her usual monotone voice as she looked at the small pebble on the desk, the student just staring confused.


Author's Note

Maud is rock hard counselor.

Anywho, next time Starlights second lesson. Twi is still oblivious, and Starlight begins to break. Spike and Tempest argue or something.
