OK! I just had to eat my sister let alone fight myself so I didn't eat you!, OK... I'm not... I'm the exact opposite of OK I'm ..mortified. psychotic sick in the head a freak….I'm... I'm a monster!’ screamed Sweetie internally. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo concerned. as her friend just looks on blankly. 'I...I...but I almost ate you Scoots how I... mm I just supposed to live with...I'm a.......so....hungry no.I won't be like her I...I I wonder if Apple Bloom tastes like app..no I won't I... so hungry' thought Sweetie fighting her hunger cravings as a new mindset tries to take hold of her. "Uh...Sweetie?!" repeated Scootaloo hearing Sweeties stomach growl as her friend licks her chops. "Are ya OK Sweets ya lookin at us like-?" asked Apple Bloom cut off as Sweetie mumbles something. "Crmlapl- I'm sorry Sweets what?" asked Apple Bloom, looking at Sweetie questioningly as her friend licked her lips and began to drool slightly making her a bit nervous. "Oh no Sweetie stop don'-!-mmm...mmm. mmm" said Apple Bloom, calling out before being cut off. "Sweetie! Stop this isn't you control yourself, fight it; you're not like her sto -" yelled Scootaloo cut off stunned as Sweetie stuffs Apple Bloom in her mouth watching in horror/shock as her shrunken friend's hind legs and tail flail about as they stick out of Sweeties lips. 'come on it's just one friend no I... they love you, either way, remember I.. I...' thought Sweetie fighting herself as she felt her friend flail in between her lips as she drools and sucks on her like a pacifier. "Swee mmmm...Sweetie...mm. belle" tried A.B as she's smacked with her best friend's tongue. "Sweetie don't... Fight it... It's not you get a hold of yourself-" shouted Scootaloo helpless in her shrunken state as she sees Sweetie slurp up Bloom and slush her friend around. "Sweetie!" yelled Scoots as she desperately tries to snap her best friend out of her vore n drug-induced trance and stop her from mindlessly devouring Apple Bloom. 'mmm, caramel apple" thought Sweetie as she pressed Apple Bloom to the roof of her mouth. "Please..mm.cough.no Swee.. oomph. Sweetie, mm-ell ...Y'all never mmmm...not be my mmm. BFF" said Bloom coughing up her friend's saliva as she realizes she wasn't coming out of this one. "Sweetie no!" shouted Scootaloo as she watched her best friend swallow Apple Bloom. 'that wasn't that bad she tasted jus- NO!' thought Sweetie as the realization hits her like a runaway train. "Appl...I... Did I really mnng...no" shuddered Sweetie. "Sweetie, stay calm we can fix this we just need to stay- " started Scootaloo cut off seeing her friends dilated bloodshot eyes start to water as she mumbles before panicking. "STAY CALM STAY CALM JUST STAY CALM I JUST ATE APPLE BLOOM MY BEST FRIEND AND YOU' ALL YOU CAN SAY IS STAY CALM!" boomed Sweetie Belle cutting her friend off devastation and panic taking hold as Scootaloo shoves her hooves as hard against her ears as she can her eyes watering just by the sheer volume of her friend's voice. "HOW IN TARTARUS DO EXPECT ME TO STAY CALM!?" roared Sweetie as she absentmindedly throws Scootaloo out of her levitation spell in blind rage/panic. "Sweetie please calm daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-oomph -humng!?" tried Scoots before she found herself flying across the room slamming into the bottom of an open jar lying on the floor taking the air out of her lungs the force causing the jar to turn upright. "NO I won't! Huh -Scootaloo!" finished Sweetie realizing what she'd done as she runs over to her friend the chain her sister shackled to her hooves clanking behind her coming taut and tripping her, coming muzzle to, glass with Scootaloo. "Mm mnng hammer!?" mumbled Scoots incoherently as she staggered around before falling on her rump. "Scoots!?" asked Sweetie worriedly as she watching her friend stagger before falling on her flank. "I'm prettier than a clown on Monday- flowerbed- muh- I'm fine Sweetie...stop listen!" stuttered Scootaloo before shaking her dizzy sight and possible concussion off and trying again to get through to Sweetie. "Scootaloo I-" started Sweetie before her friend stops her mid-apology. "Sweetie! You need to listen" demanded Scootaloo cutting her friend off. "Mm-hmm" murmured Sweetie full of fear and dread as sob-less tears stained her cheeks. "OK first I need you to pinkie promise me you won't do that 'again' then take me over to that table and do everything I say no questions asked OK," said Scootaloo oddly calm as she instructed Sweetie. "OK" squeaked Sweetie as she did as told. 'I'm so sorry Apple Bloom I... I'm a monster I didn't even deserve you as the friend you were to me and now 'you're' gone' thought Sweetie silently crying remembering how she and bloom first met as she walked over to the table. (https://youtu.be/Jkdgg51_yZ8?t=172) 'this is worse then the nightmare I got when I sabotaged sapphire shores headdress because I thought my sister..." thought Sweetie stopping her thoughts short as she remembers what Luna had shown her. https://youtu.be/L_cZ3K8EnwU?t=2 'so that's why I went down my sister's throat oh-ugh she tried to warn me and I wasn't even- oh why?!' thought Sweetie scorning herself as a feeling of stupidity temporarily takes place of the guilt before it comes back full force. As she sets Scootaloo's jar on the table before letting herself fall on her flank head down in frustrated shame dreading what was happening to her best friend. "OK Sweetie this started with the book so "it's gonna" end with the book" said Scootaloo drawing a dreading/questioning look from Sweetie. "No just listen" finished Scoots before her friend could pose one. "Sweetie you need the book" stated Scoots as she sees her friends hesitance to grab it off the floor next to her. "Mmnt uh" denied Sweetie almost inaudible as she wonders in fear of what cursed fate she'd bring on her other friend if she dared to. "Come on Sweetie we don't have time for this! Do you want to save Apple Bloom?" said Scootaloo the question getting her friend's attention. " Wah...-uh huh!" answered Sweetie as confusion/hop rise. "On page three hundred and eighty-seven there are instructions on emergency- Impulse-v-victim-rescues" explained Scootaloo as Sweetie grabs the book and opens it to the specified page. 'and just how do you know' thought sweetie preparing the question and shocked to see she was right. "How did-" asked Sweetie as she looks at the illustrations cut off. "There's no time Sweetie just do what it says but read it all the way through as many times as you need to " instructed Scootaloo as she tries not to cry about what she was about to reveal. Pg.387 chapter 56 E.I.V.V.R or emergency impulse voraphile victim rescue, *so you lost control don't worry in this chapter you find ways to undo what's been done if you've accidentally eaten a friend skip to section three.* 'oh please' thought Sweetie a new and distasteful hope rising as she read and skipped to the specified section. "Scoots?" 'Is she trying to say she's done this before but that means... I she oh Scootaloo why?!*' asked Sweetie ending in an angered thought confused/shock on her face. "I'm so sorry I didn't think it was Rarity's I... I. I I VOLUNTEER! page three hundred and ninety through ninety-four!" confessed Scootaloo volunteering for the disturbing endeavor. "You. Knew?" asked Sweetie a saddened anger in her voice. "I thought it was R.D's Sweetie I've been initiated Rainbow- -shut up just shut up!*" said Scootaloo trying to explain voice cracking as she tries not to cry cut off wincing as her friend yelled at her. Sweetie stairs at her friend in disbelief and anger. 'why i... I trusted you I'LL..." ' no. If I'm any indication I know what she's been through I... I I'll deal with this latter' she thought judgingly. Trying to do just that and failing as anger surges through her like an Untamed beast with no cage and a weak chain holding it back as she tries to keep a cool head. *so an impulse got the better of you no problem just follow the detailed instructions and illustrations* Step 1 Gather the following materials. ~ diluting gel ~Flim n' Flam Cough Syrup ~one shot glass or a one tablespoon measuring spoon ~one combination lock lidded jar. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo nervously as she watches her friend read over the book. "What!?*" answered Sweetie with a death stair on the brink of pure rage at her friend's knowledge of the subject. As she goes over the instructions. "Huh?" hummed Sweetie as her friend just points in response looking over at the area Scootaloo was pointing to she sees what she needs there on the wall to her left scripted in bold bright red letters E.I.V.V.R kits. 'E.I.V.V.R?' thought Sweetie as she uses her magic to grab the kit and brings it over to her. 'emergency impulse vore victim rescue kit, but if she knew then... But why!' thought Sweetie realizing her best friend might as well be responsible for her current nightmare "why didn't you say something before ... I was left with the worst choice... To either eat my sister or let her eat us all because of this stupid book and you didn't... You knew ...WHY!"shouted Sweetie her voice trembling with fear and blood boiling rage as she yelled at her. "I'm sorry I wanted to but I couldn't Sweetie-" started Scootaloo cut off her voice breaking as she fights back tears. "-WHY!!" screamed Sweetie hatred and accusation in her voice. "Because I couldn't Sweetie you don-" tried Scootaloo. "YOU'RE RIGHT I DON'T UNDERSTAND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS WOULDN'T TELL ME OR GIVE A WARNING!!" Sweetie yelled her voice thundering or at least it was to her shrunken friend's ears, evident by the way she covered them. "Sweetie I- you're not my friend!, friends warn each other! no matter the consequences!they don't... You let this--Sweetie I- no shut up!! i can't even .... I don't even know how I could have become friends with such such a...you!!!" spat Sweetie cutting her x friend off the venom in her voice alone shattering Scootaloo the words of her friend constricting her heart tell it breaks in two. And she finally lets herself go falling on her face and sobbing uncontrollably curling into a tight ball at the bottom of the jar. Sweetie just stared at her old friend in confused pain and hatred hot tears streaking her cheeks as she sits chained to the floor of her sister's dungeon-like basement and tries to contemplate her situation. "Sweetie i'm- -Yeah sure just tell me what to do!" cut in Sweetie not caring what her x friend had to say anymore. "Just open the kit it'll have instructions" answered Scootaloo wincing at her friend's backlash. Meanwhile, inside sweetie acidic gut, a horrified farm filly contemplate whether her current reality was true or not. 'it's just a horrible nightmare yea that's it A. J's probably trying to wake me but why won't I?' thought Apple Bloom wincing with every stroke the devil mare she came to hate gave to her mane as she lies there curled in a tight ball in her captor's Lapp staring at the bone hoof rest her captors other hoof was on frozen in fear. Outside sweetie tries to reason with herself. 'I can't believe she...she knew everything and didn't even care enough to tell or even give the slightest of a warning I... I hate her!' Sweetie screams internally as she reads perhaps the most disturbing instructions she couldn't even believe to even exist. Sweetie now rummaging through the various implements included in the E.I.V.V.R kit/ one bottle of super strength cough syrup, a shot glass, three miniature full body harnesses, one vial of black solvent with a brush of some kind built into its cork, and several small bundles of nylon kite string. Letting out a grimace as she read what each implement was for. Sweetie looks at her x friend angry and unsure how she should go about following the instructions listed. meanwhile at sweet apple acres "where is she it's almost an hour past bedtime?!" said A.J as she paces a near grove in the living room floor. "Something's wrong I just know it I'm gonna go n check the clubhouse!" Voiced A.J worriedly as she runs out the door. meanwhile in a fashionistas basement. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo. "what!*" answered Sweetie still upset and giving x friend Scootaloo a pained disappointed look. "Sweetie I-sniffle- sorry I should've told you I just thought- please I-" said Scootaloo. "No Scootaloo I'm the one who's sorry-" started Sweetie cutting Scootaloo off. Letting out a wince Scootaloo waits for Sweetie's full rejection. "It's my fault all this happened if I hadn't of brought that stupid book none of this would have happened" confessed Sweetie realizing the two main denominators in her current nightmare were her and the book, not her brainwashed sister not her tortured friend just the book and her muzzle. scorning herself she tries to think straight the drug and hunger-induced mindset trying to take over saying she should just eat her too there wasn't anything wrong with that decision and tried hard to ignore it but it was still there taunting and sickening as it was. "I'm sorry I would've-!..I... uh what?" said Scootaloo her appease for mercy cut short as she stares at her. "Wait, you're sorry but none of this would've hap-" she said confused and cut off again. "No Scoots we would be home safe... normal if I had kept my muzzle to myself!" said Sweetie as fresh tears tried to flow but her eyes were just to dry. "But if I'd told you -" started Scootaloo cut off again as she looks at the distressed unicorn filly she new as her first and best friend tear-drenched face, matted fur mane and all. "No I'm not arguing your my best friend Scootaloo and so is Apple Bloom please you were trying to tell me something important and I let my anger I had at... myself out on you I'm sorry" Finished Sweetie ashamed at herself her actions angry at her lack of self-control and the scatterbrain she found herself with. "Sweetie I... I'm sorry too... I should've told you... I've already been through this with Dash... Sweetie, I'm what's called a vore-filly an initiate Voraphile....and an.d... Sweetie dash ate me! That's how I now about the E.I.V.V.R kit because I've experienced it!" Scootaloo shakily confessed as the last of her resolve crumbled around her, openly crying again and thinking about apple bloom and the deathly similar situation she was in. "Sweetie I'm sorry we'll talk latter there isn't much time left I'll walk you through it; you have to pull together just for a few minutes and we have even fewer to do this before you..ng" tried Scootaloo wincing as a horrid realization hits her. "before wha. -groan-gurgle- ...ng ml" started Sweetie cutting herself short as the answer sucker punches her metaphorically and fiscally in the gut. 'digest!' she finished internally as she starts hyperventilating. "It's OK Sweetie just try and stay calm- as you can and do everything I say, first let me out of the jar so I can get ready!" said Scootaloo hurriedly as Sweetie shakily does what she's told knocking the jar over in the process. "Easy Sweetie," said Scootaloo as she hits the table, the jar rolling off the table, hitting the floor, shattering, and startling Sweetie. "ahh huh ml" let out Sweetie whimpering as she tries to maintain what little sanity she could as her mind raced faster than her pounding heart. "Its OK Sweetie quickly drink the cough syrup the whole thing no exceptions no matter how bad it tastes," said Scoots as comfortingly as she can as she hurriedly puts on the harness with the size label small and picks up the other small and the Medium harnesses and clips them to her side and the extra nylons to her other side. She new with Rarity being an experienced voraphile there was a chance she might still be alive feasting disturbingly on the ponies already in sweeties gut the thought making her wince and move faster. "uh huh n ml " whimpered Sweetie as she used her magic to lift the Flim n Flam Anti Cough Tonic whimpering as she pressed it to her lips and started to drink immediately chugging it the moment it reached her tongue her favorite toast and jam and puts it back on the table in disappointed emptiness craving more. "OK now take the vial with the black stuff in it and use the brush to- you know what skip the brush just dump half on me the rest on the string's." directed Scootaloo not wanting to waste precious time as she finished the double lock knots on each harness and clips all the remaining pins, clips, and gadgets to the remainder of her harness. "mg, pluh mumble good now let me tie the other end of the string off on this and then eat me!" instructed Scootaloo wincing at the memory of the process of being some ponies snack. "n plasssse I...I dfntt sss wanton ssto" mumbled Sweetie in denial the medicine already having done its job. Numbing her throat, and tongue. "Its OK Sweetie I'll be fine," said Scootaloo trying to be reassuring. inside detrimental fillies, gut sat a rather disturbed farm filly 'How long has it been why can't I wake up?! Luna please I'm scared!" thought Apple Bloom. "It's OK It'll all be over soon Apple Bloom; But I must say I didn't think you would be first, honestly, I thought it would've been Scootaloo?" said the evil white unicorn mare calmly slight supersize in her sickeningly kind voice. 'I just want to go home' thought Apple Bloom whimpering as the bone/ rawhide fashioned lounge chair rocked back and forth in the center of the boiling pool of gastric acid skulls and bones floating this way and that. "Oh quit shuddering your fine, in fact, its an honor to have your friend be the one who eats you mmpleh- " said Rarity cut off as she's showered with something sticky "-cough seems like 'she's' thirsty," she finished as she wiped the substance from her eyes. 'Luna please ah' OCH ng-" thought Apple Bloom pleading with the guardian of dreams. as her hoof slips nearly causing her to fall into the gastric acid letting out a yelp as the stuff burns and devolves the fur off her hoof leaving a second-degree burn in its place yelping she instantly pulls it out falling back and stammering into her friend's evil sister as she whimpers in pain. "You know darling you don't have much time left to decide it's only a matter of a minute or two before this lovely fashioned chair sinks completely. So I'd start thinking off how you want to honor her' there are two options left either dive in head-on or wait for the inevitable; Actually three if you want I can speed things up and put you down myself in my gut that is.-giggle-" said Rarity giggling at their fate like it was just a fun game and not a life or death situation. 'Maybe she's right there are dreams that you don't wake up from Intel you practically die in them!" reasoned Apple Bloom as she sat up in Rarity's Lapp holding her burnt hoof as she contemplated her option's her hoof just going into a numbing throb. meanwhile outside sweetie shook her head at what her friend was yelling at her to do. "mm uh" denied Sweetie. "Sweetie theirs no time I'll be fine just do it!" demanded Scootaloo. she knew if Rarity was still alive then Apple Bloom was probably alive as well. 'come on Sweetie please I can't lose you and her!' she thought to herself. "ml muh whut ifft ii mloossse Yueh stew" mumbled Sweetie not wanting to lose her as well. "You don't have a choice do you want to save her or not?... just eat me.,. EAT ME NOW!" shouted Scootaloo. "ml m uh huh ng mm" answered sweetie slur-idly. as dry tears burned her eyes. "then eat me eat me now hurry!" yelled Scootaloo demandingly jumping and dancing on her hooves wondering if she should just force herself down her petrified friend's throat as the horrid thought hit her ' the drugs they must be warring off she's losing her apatite!' as she reaches her conclusion she suddenly feels herself lifted up "I'll be fine just do it quickly!" finished Scoots looking at her newly carnivorous friend. 'I don't think this a good idea maybe I shouldn't...No she's done this before she'll be mnng... You just better come back Scoots!' thought Sweetie as she lifts the first friend she ever made up off the table and magic's her into her waiting maw 'just two tugs and I pull her back out I just need to stay calm, Here goes nothing... I hope' she thought to herself as she slurped up the excess string and chokes her best friend down the best she could. 'did I swallow I didn't feel it...I guess I did?' thought Sweetie as she watched the rest of the excess string slide and feed into her mouth while she held the long x shaped object the other end was tied to in her magic grip. "Good now just swallow Sweetie it'll be OK just swallow," Scootaloo told herself more thane she told her friend. "come on Swee-ng -gulp-" started Scootaloo cut off as she's suddenly jerked down her friend's gullet. Scootaloo tried not to think too much about the slimy compressed feeling as she focused on her mission at hoof, saving Apple Bloom. inside a churning belly, a filly thinks about her ridiculous and deadly situation. 'OK so if I'm stuck in a nightmare then why does it feel so real?' thought Apple Bloom in contemplation.'wait, you cant feel pain in dreams at least not physically!' she thought, remembering the agony of her hoof as it throbs and burns but was mostly numb now as she tried to figure out what was and why it was happening to her. 'OK just stay calm there has to be a more reasonable explanation!?' thought Apple Bloom as she begins to realize what was happening panicking as she does so. "I don't wanna be soup!" said Apple Bloom realizing that it wasn't a dream and her friend really did eat her as she grabs onto Rarity like she was her last Savior. "Easy darling your going to have to face it eventually," said Rarity as she holds the trembling Apple Bloom in her Lapp. "No I don't wanna be..gulp... Digested!" yelled Apple Bloom as she looks at a floating unicorn skull as it sinks whimpering as it does. meanwhile at sweet apple acres. "Rainbow Dash what are you doing here?" asked A.J as she runs up to her sister's clubhouse. "Hey A.J you haven't seen Scootaloo around have you she was supposed to be at her house so I could pick her up for tomorrow nights wonder-bolts gig but she's not there or here?" asked Dash lying about the reason for the pick up as she swooped down to meet Applejack. "No have you seen Apple Bloom?" said A.J hopefully too worried about her sister to notice the difference in her friend's tone. "No why?... You mean she missing to?!" answered R.D seeing her friends worry. "No...I...I don't know!" answered A.J fearfully. As she wonders where her sister could be at this time of night. meanwhile, in the midst of a faithful rescue mission, a pegasus filly tries to ignore the slime she was covered in. "This is disgusting!" thought Scootaloo before passing through and into Sweetie's gut. "Uaaaaah-cough-cough- bluhhk-ugh- Apple Bloom!?" gasp/coughed Scootaloo as she resurfaced and celled out. meanwhile, in said churning gut, a filly tries to think of something else then what she found herself surrounded by. "I just wanna go home!- -Apple Bloom?- -huh" said Apple Bloom crying as she's held in Rarity's Lapp looking around for what she thought was sompony calling her. "Scootaloo?" replied Apple Bloom questioning if she really was hearing her best friend 'wait how isn't this acid uh' she thought wondering as the idea to test that came to mind. "Over here darling" answered Rarity as she held Apple Bloom and increased her light spell. "Uh, Apple Bloom? Ahh Rarity E.I.V.V.R!" said Scoots turning around as a light brightens calling out the moment she saw Rarity. "Wait" called Scoots swimming over to the thing her friend and Rarity were on and gaging the moment she realized what it was slightly unnerved she stairs at a bone an rawhide throne. "Ah Scootaloo care to join us?" asked Rarity vigor in her voice. "Ahh -E.I.V.V.R Sweetie- Egress Apple Bloom," said Scoots as she used as many terms and phrases used by the secret vore community that she was sure she had remembered correctly. "Oh I see so- Au grand serieux Ex per expert expert-o credite- there are consequences" responded Rarity pointedly. 'OK I think I've had enough this is just crazy first the book then Sweetie eats me now Scootaloo's swimming in acid OK I've officially lost it' thought Apple Bloom as she stairs at Scootaloo swimming toward her covered in some sort of black stuff with a string trailing behind and up. "A’la bonne neur" said Rarity as she used her magic to bring Scootaloo over to her. "Ab-sit invidia!" stammered Scoots in fear as she's suddenly picked up and brought over to her friend's evil sister. "Bien entendu Custos morum" said Rarity as she sets Scootaloo down next to Apple Bloom. Scootaloo looks her friend over before speaking "Apple Bloom I don't have time to explain but you need to put this on and quickly!" said Scoots as she looked her mortified friend in the eyes as Apple Bloom just stairs at the harness in her friend's hooves mentally shut down. 'I don't have time for this looks like I'm just gonna have to play an awkward game of dress up' thought Scootaloo uncomfortably. "OK A.B, just work with me here," said Scootaloo as she unstraps the small harness and begins to put it on, Apple Bloom. 'really just when I think it can't get any weirder it jumps straight to embarrassing?! I can't take it anymore!' thought apple bloom as she begins to struggle and panic against the intruding friend. "Apple Bloom, hold still I'm trying to help you!?" said Scootaloo as her friend started fighting against her efforts. 'theirs no time' she thought "Rarity a little help here- Crise de nerfs?!" asked Scootaloo wondering if that was the best idea. "Aussitot dit aussitot fait" said Rarity in reply. "Ahh" gasped Scootaloo as a beam of magic fizzes by her ear and hits her struggling friend in the face "Rarity?!" chided Scoots before Apple Bloom went limp in her hooves. "Che sa-ra, sa-ra" came Rarity's careless reply. "Ad referendum- a little warning next time!" said Scootaloo grumpily as she pulls Apple Bloom up into a position easier to work with positioning the final shoulder strap. "Ce-te-ra de-suite" said Rarity loosely with a harrumph. "Ugh just shut it and put this on- Ad Astra per Aspera- Fata viam invenient- for sweetie's sake- Amor patriae- Desipere in loco et sic de si-mi-Li-bus- she needs you without you there isn't any -En famil-Le or self security/sanity she's slipping" continued Scootaloo explaining. As she finished the final straps before she grabs the last harness and give 's it to Rarity while she takes the shorter nylon and begins looping the length through the lock knots of her and her friends harnesses. "Your the first thing she's gonna ask me about when we get topside so," said Scootaloo as she put the final knots in the nylon connecting her and Apple Bloom. "Do-c'en-do dis-ci-mus A’ bientot - but I....- A Bras ou-vert's?" questioned Rarity. "A Bras ou-vert's A coup sur " replied Scootaloo in honesty as she looked pleadingly at her. meanwhile outside a filly sits in anxiety as she waits for her friends signal. 'should I pull her back out now it... Is it supposed to take this long... I can't live with myself if I lose her too uh maybe I should just... Oh, Scootaloo please!?' worried Sweetie in thought and fear of what she should do. "Scootaloo please uh" she pleaded as an abrupt feeling caught her attention. "Uh....oh" ' oh Scootaloo...you...you just better be OK!' said Sweetie worriedly ending in thought as she feels two more tugs on the nylon sticking out of her mouth and began pulling. meanwhile, outside in the open world, two concerned pony run side by side. "Where do you think they would've gone?" asked R.D as she hovered alongside A.J on there way, to Rarity's an expressionless look on her face as a new realization struck her gut. 'she wouldn't have she couldn't have their her friends and she knows what A.J and Rarity would do to her I told her oh Scootaloo where are you?' she thought in slight panic. the thought of her adopted sister snacking on her friends and hiding as she regretted the choice of doing so, running through her mind. " I don't know but if we can't find them then we'll have Twi... Twilight she can use one of those search spell things" answered A.J instantly changing directions the moment the idea hit her. 'why didn't I think of that first?' she thought as R.D landed next to her as they ran to the golden oaks library. "Yeah, she'll find them in no time at all no worries" answered R.D as their destination comes into view. a minute later at the said library. "What da ya mean you can't find Em?!" asked A.J impatiently as she paces in front of the purple unicorn mare. I don't understand it myself Applejack it's as if they, well I don't know ponies don't just up and disappear ugh....wait I think I know what's happened but your not gonna like what I have to say" answered Twilight perplexed as a grim thought came to her. 'if their life signatures are this low then something not right' she contemplated the thought of tracing the fillies energy to find the warm yet lifeless body's driving s sharp chill down her spine. meanwhile, a relieved yet uncertain filly hack up the last of the string hopping her friends had made it out in one piece. -cough hack plough- "Scootaloo Apple...Rarity?!" hacked out Sweetie excitedly after pulling her friends out changing tones the moment she saw her sister "you...why?" said Sweetie asking her friend why she wouldn't have just left her to her fate. "Dam-Na-nt quod non intelegunte!?" shouted Rarity with a distasteful tone of voice. "Huh what?" said Sweetie not sure if she had heard right as she stares blankly at her sister. "It's the book Sweetie it does things to you!" said Scootaloo as if it were all the answer her friend was going to need. hide!"OK so let me get this straight what yer telling me... That... That just can't be right" said Apple Bloom confused holding her hoof out as rarity put burn bomb on it wincing as she began Wrapping it in a bandage. "Please tell me that...it can't be it just can't if she.. ugh are ya seriously saying that...the book... No?!" finished Apple Bloom pushing her puzzler to the max. "I'm afraid so...-darling?" said Rarity realizing that she had a similar echo as her sis and scoots exchange looks before Scootaloo could even think about jinx she noticed her friends face. "Don't you worry about it we've got your back she won't be getting to you without going through us first?" said Scoots in an as reassuring a tone she could manage with her own doubts. "But she's?" said A.B rubbing her bandaged hoof cut off. "I know darling we all put our trust and our faith in her but its the truth celestia's the one who wrote it every bit of the blasted thing too" finished Rarity as she rose to her hooves and brought the confused filly into an excepted but awkward feeling embrace. "So now that were all the same size again well and were all initiated- Now what Sis" interrupted Sweetie before Scootaloo could finish the sentence. meanwhile at the library. "Where did ah go wrong... Why... What....what happened to them! The truth Twilight I'm warning ya please?" said A.J through sobs and clenched teeth. "I'm sorry A.J buh....huh?" said Twilight a feeling coming to her. "I'm waiting, Twi...what r ya... What is it Twilight!" said A.J concerned interest replacing impatience, regret and worry. "I...I think I but that"- tried twilight cut off -" jumping hopscotch Twilight what is it" cut in A.J panicked it had been three hours since they got to the library and thirty-eight spells latter twilight finally got a possible hit. "I think I found them but I could be wrong the spell says there? 'under' the boutique?" answered Twilight hesitantly unsure of it. "Well what are we waiting- wait, Whah 'there' under the boutique?" said A.J as she's making a mad dash for the door before stopping in confusion. "elsewhere a few moments later. "So.. ugh are you, OK sis, you look... -shhhh" shushed Rarity. "What is it sis?" whispered Sweetie a thump upstairs giving her all the answer she needed as her and her friends rushed behind the only available adult in response. meanwhile just a moment earlier upstairs. "soo there? "Under"..the boutique?" said R.D questioningly looking around as A.J looked hastily under everything in sight even a book on sowing Techniques that had fallen out of the fabric scrap recycle Bin she had tossed aside earlier. meanwhile below them. "so what is it ..who's up there?" whispered Scoots restating Sweetie's question. "remember how I said that if and when were found we- well excuse number two sounds good if you're OK with it sweetie?" Rarity whispered in response. "are you sure we have to make an excuse can't we just tell them instead?" asked Apple Bloom in a hushed tone the option of doing either giving her a bad feeling in her heart and gut. "are you crazy!? If your sister finds out now if they find out!" said Rarity in a slightly panicked tone as she whipped around and brought Apple Bloom muzzle to muzzle the filly giving a similar yet freaked out expression with a wince to match it. "Rarity calm down we don't even know if it's them or not it c... It could be somepony else what do we do?!" said Sweetie as she realizes a crucial fact what if it was sompony else as she feels her entire body go cold before her sister drops Apple Bloom and brings her face to face. "I don't know! I.. I. I. oh ahh aaahuah ouh " panicked Rarity as she shook her sister by the withers as she began hyperventilating. "Crise de nerfs" said Scootaloo as she tackled Rarity and looked at Sweetie for support. "meanwhile oblivious to what was below them a group of mares tried to find evidence of their quiry so for unsuccessful. 'where is she oh ugh' Twilight where is she you said she was at the boutique?!" thought A.J yelling in panic. "A.J calm down your driving yourself up the walls literally!" shouted R.D as A.J climbed to the top shelf of fabric falling at the suddenness of the voice the shelves giving out one by one landing herself in a tangled heap of wool, linen, silk, and other choice fabrics the resulting crashing breaking Twilight's concentration. "Seriously girls I- wait huh seriously how 'd I miss... Girls this way I think I see a way down" said Twilight annoyance replaced by hope as her scanning spell found a hidden door only to find it required an unlocking spell 'drat' she thought as her friends approached. "Ah hear ya I'm a' comen around the mountain!?" said A.J in her deteriorating mentality as she ran blindly toward her friend's voice with a piece of fabric wrapped around her face. "A.J watch..." 'I can't take this anymore she's gonna hurt herself think think think uh," said Twilight as a quick thought hit her. "Twilight what'd you do that for?!" said R.D a confused look on her face as she looks at the Unconscious A.J. at that same moment just below them, a farm filly had much the same reaction to her predicament. "Sweetie?!" said Apple Bloom in shock at the now Unconscious Rarity snoozing on the floor in front of them. "What was I supposed to do she was giving herself a heart attack!?" exasperated Sweetie trying to remain calm. "Sweetie she's was the only one who knew what to do!!" panicked Apple Bloom biting her hoof. "Its OK Sweetie, Just do aversion option three, shrink us put us in your mane and hide in the air vent" said Scootaloo as if that was just the answer and not there only option now that there disturbingly friendly mentor was out cold; ignoring her panicking friend for the time being as she tried to keep Sweetie sane the memory of her friend's mad side sending a shiver up her spine 'never again' she thought as she herd Apple Bloom fall over and looked over her shoulder to see her sucking her hoof and rocking back and forth on her back in a fetal position. "Are you sure?" asked Sweetie hesitantly thinking over her sister's third option idea. "Yes and Apple Bloom is a bit out of it so your just gonna have to take my word on her part... we'll be fine you know you can trust me we don't have time for an argument Sweetie do it know I think I hear them coming!" said Scootaloo ending in a hurried tone as she heard groaning and grinding sounds coming from the top of the stairs. "OK?!" answered Sweetie unnerved but initiating the plan. "OK, I think I got it," said Twilight as two shelves of fabric separate revealing a hidden door not wanting to waste time she decides to just break the second lock and head's in horn ablaze R.D following suit. "girls?/Scootaloo?" called Twilight and R.D in unison as they descended the dimly lit stairs gasping at the scene that lay strewn before them jars lying empty or shattered covering the floor lighting her horn finding and turning on the only light switch her gut lurches left. "why," said R.D looking at several familiar feathers laid about lifelessly bellow a set of chains and shackles on the wall across and to her left and a torn strand of pink fabric below the set next to it as her gut flips upside down and knots. 'scootaloo I...no' she thought as she walks to the center-left portion of the room to find a third set of shackles laying next to a steel rectangular table a tuft of white fur caught in the hinge of one of the shackles its chain anchored to the floor behind a matching chair while empty jars and Tupperware littered the table and floor underneath. meanwhile, upstairs a mare is coming to her senses. "ugh mmm where ah'm I? gasp! Apple Bloom!" moaned A.J staring at the sealing gasping as the memories flooded her mind quickly shooting upright and noticing an open secret passage before running down only to be met with a scene straight from a horror film. at that same moment, a filly hades hoping her presence wouldn't be noticed as she tried to remain calm. 'just stay calm and everything will be fine' Sweetie told herself as she holds onto the jar that she found to put her friends and sister in. Her back against the grate of the ducts fan as she keeps her friends hopefully temp housing arrangement tightly embraced against her pounding chest. meanwhile just outside the vent and to the left, a purple unicorn scans the area bathing it in her magic "Twilight?" said R.D as she looked back at her friend with pleading eyes. "........." "Apple Bloom?" came the call from upstairs before a detrimental A.J made it to the bottom of the stairs only to stop cold. "Twilight, where's, is sh-sh-she ain't hurt right?" asked A.J as she goes over the scene before her, blood running cold the moment her eyes met the left far corner 'no no no no no' she thought as she nearly plows Twilight over pushing her aside and running to the corner in response. 'how could she' thought Twilight in disbelief not understanding how Rarity the element of generosity could've done something as sinister as eating her own sister but her friend's sisters/sisters best friends. 'she wouldn't of....but there the only full-sized signatures all the others register as micro or mini' she thought as she scanned the room repeatedly there wasn't any fresh sing that she had left the room either it didn't make sense. 'Rarity why she hasn't even gotten her mark why?!' thought R.D as she picked a broken feather off the floor and just started her heart nearly falling out of her chest. meanwhile, inside a ventilation shaft, a filly tries to stay as quit trying to stifle her whimpers. 'keep it together just oh no' thought Sweetie as a dreading sensation tickled her muzzle. ahh aah....sitting as still as possible with a hoof to her snout she lets out a small sigh and listens to the conversation it was A.J, R.D and distressingly enough Twilight. 'no why her why does the world hate me....and my friends' she thought absentmindedly taking her dominant hoof off her muzzle and putting it on her chin in thought instantly regretting it.... -ahchoo! sneezed Sweetie as her blood stops cold. at that moment a pegasus was walking by the vent. "wait did you hear something?" said R.D stopping the conversation ears at attention. "hear what I-shh" shushed dash cutting Twilight off as A.J being that she lived next to the everfree honed in on the sounds general direction an air vent. inside the vent, sweetie dreaded her mistake. 'no no no no please just stay calm everything- wwrrr -snag gagh! throng-ring buzz-click-whimper/moan' thought Sweetie pleadingly as the ducts fun started to spin snagging her tail just as it was about to reach full speed entangling her tail and jamming before a built-in breaker shots it off sensing an obstruction all the while she let out a yelp/cry of pain moaning as she thinks 'oh why I don't wanna be food!' hearing the sound a.j jumps into action. "Apple Bloom!!?" said A.J ripping the vent cover off and shove/shimmying her way in before R.D could even think about blinking. "ahh mmng nono no p-p-pl-plea-se I don't wanna be lunch!" let out Sweetie as A.J's head came into view in the corner thanking the stars her intruder was too big to make the turn. "Appl-" started A.J heart dropping in, multiple ways at what she's greeted with "Swe- wheres- its OK Sweetie where's Apple Bloom?" asked A.J fearing the worst as tears started to fall looking at a small mortified tear-drenched face, sweaty n matted fur disheveled n ruined mane of one of her sisters best friends. looking closer she noticed her tail was tangled and stuck in the ducts fan taking in the full scene she noticed jars of familiar ponies as well as one jar concealed in a death grip embrace a mess of two-toned mane covering sum as well as the left side of her face bloodshot fear filled eyes staring back. 'what do I do I could shrink her no that would leave the duct open and she's too big to reach me I... what do I do why me why now?!' thought Sweetie as she pushed herself as far back as the grate would allow. meanwhile, outside two pony's are les\ft confused looking at there friend half sticking out of the ventilation shaft. "A.J did you -is Scootaloo in there!" asked R.D before rushing over in hope demanding to know who she'd Found. 'why can't I get a clear reading I can't even tell who she's found' thought Twilight frustrated as she makes her way over trying to get a better scan. meanwhile inside said duct a filly rambles out mumbling. "S'il Vous plaît Restez dos Custos morum Enami Restez dos Restez dos Audi alteram Es tut uns leid Bar-m-herzig-ke-it!" said Sweetie pleadingly as she began to sob. A.j just stared most of the multilingual sentence flying over her head. 'what did-did she just talk the way I think she did...hear the other side mercy but that's something you say when...oh no no Sweetie please no you couldn't of but she's the only one left she'd had to of... no' thought A.J her hope, dropping as she tried to give an as assuring/dead serious I will hurt you if you don't spill now look she could muster '3. 2. -better start talking Sweetie" said A.J through her teeth and under her breath as Sweetie murmurs before saying something she didn't expect. "Je jure nigh Manger a-mi Je Manger sœ-ur S'il Vous plaît Dum vi-vi-mus vi-va-mus" balled Sweetie as she gripped the jar tighter as and looks pleadingly at A.J her chin resting on the lid. "huh ugh Sweetie you don't have ta talk that da way were secluded just-just talk normal wh-wh-where's Apple Bloom" said A.J biting her tongue knowing she needed to be gentle no matter how hard it was or how loud the voice in her head told her to just eat her fighting this she tried to think straight before she's surprised a second time a request this time one she knew quite well. "Custos mo-rum" said Sweetie trying to make her signature puppy eyes face but finding that her eyes burned too much to manage for long losing herself to more sobs as she tries to maintain a calm/strong demeanor also failing. "huh, Sweetie I-" responded A.J cut off as the plea is repeated. "Custos mo-rum swear please I can't do this alone I just please I je ne sa-is pas I found Rarity's book! she-she-she I mng mng I ate rarity-her hung mgn instead! ng ngsco-sco E.I.V.V.R. applom uhn mm" confessed Sweetie before her last shred of strength gave way and she started rocking back and forth crying as she tightened her grip on her friends/sisters jar. 'she..... Rarity you monster she's your sister why-why wouldn't ya just take er ta twi have er whip er memory..... I have to get to the bottom of this' thought A.J heartbroken at what she saw and what she feared might of happened to her sister. "Swe-Sweetie just... I swear Custos mo-rom please just tell me what-where-Apple Blo-oo-oom mng ng I need ta know I huh- gurgle/groan" said A.J realizing she wouldn't get anywhere she made the oath starting to cry stopping as she hears the sounds of hunger 'oh no... wait that's not me- oh please no' thought A.J as she realizes the tables had stacked against her one vorefillies and initiate voraphiles had little to no control over the hunger/urges and impulses two she was stuck and within range of a hungry recently turned cannibal unicorn. one second earlier 'I know she's the element of honesty but Rarity said she's been a voraphile two years before the wedding when ng why why'd it have to be my sister I... I. I don't trust her I don't even know her anymore I need to be sure' thought Sweetie as she tries to think of a way to test A.J's trust and honesty as her stomach starts to twist and groan and she freezes in place. "-huh-groan gurgle- uh Sweetie yo-you-r-your still in there right Custos morum?" asked A.J the roll of who fears who doing a complete 180. "minty-no I won't I so -groan- hungry," said Sweetie in a drag monotone a blank stair across her face as her thoughts raced ' no I won't I can still fight it oh why can't I just stay full why' thought Sweetie as she fought with herself. 'come on A.j think save yourself you know what she's done it's obvious what happened no no I control me not you shut up Apple Bloom wouldn't want that she'd want me to help her not arrgh' thought A.J fighting her own urges and decides what to do help her no matter the cost. "Sweetie listen, sager cube it's, not you," said A.J as Sweetie levitates three jars and takes out the first victim levitates the pony in and swishes her tongue around and swallows while simultaneously taking the second out as she stares blankly ahead. ' come on A.J think she looks more brain dead then R.D was at Pinky's last vore party that's it!' thought a.J trying to think quickly remembering a past experience as she sees Sweetie absentmindedly eat the second pony and sees cheerily was next before she blurted pleadingly Ex per expert expert credite Il est tout en vous êt es tête il est le livre ne laissez pas vous contrôler-vous vous contrôlez pas le livre' seeing that she had her attention she continues "you make the final choice there just suggestive persuasions ya can't ignore em but ya can control em" finished A.J as Sweetie's eyes dilate slightly tears flowing free like a river. "A.J answer me... is she in there who is it... please tell me it's Scootaloo- A.J!" said R.D demanding an answer slapping A.J on the flank and getting her face bucked in response as well as a muffled reply. "ah mnmed scwisers awnd dwont wuch mah frank awgin," said A.J wiggling to try and get a hoof out. "aghmeh ow fine be that way don't expect me to come running when you need me next time," said R.J grumpily as she begins to pace back and forth. 'what did she say?' thought twilight " A.J what did you say?" asked twilight louder to be sure she'd be heard. "Ahmed scwisures !" came the reply clearer this time 'scwesures?.... scissors!' thought twilight deciphering the slurred mumble. "It's OK Sweetie just tell me what happened ah can't take it much more please just tell me" pleaded A.J using every shred of herself to hold herself together tears flowing freely. "How can I even trust you and don't say because of your element either!?" asked Sweetie demandingly as she held the scissors in her magic threateningly. "I I... I don't know Sweetie how can ya, she probably told ya everything I've... Please, I ng just wanna see mm..m'ah sis mmng again I I... I'll do anything!" pleaded A.J sobbing as she lets her head rest on the vent floor in a small pool of her own tears. 'it's almost like she cares it's sickening... No I know she cares the only way to fake what I've seen is if she's been lying her whole life if theirs any love I know from experience it's a sister's love for there sister theirs only one way to test that and it comes down to how she reacts' thought Sweetie in contemplation. "A.J?" asked Sweetie getting her attention. "Yeah Sweetie ah promise ah wont do anything that could hurt ya is she did ya...mmng ng ah mmnnn why I'm sorry sis I thought if mng ng ah ah no o o!?" said A.J in response losing herself to more sobs as she looks pleadingly at the only one who knew what happened to her sister. ' that's enough for me just one more test' she thought "A.J can I trust you to keep me safe from twilight and R.D please Pas tout est ce qu'il semble Cutie mark croisés toujours... Custos mo-rum please" asked Sweetie hoping the reaction would be on the plus side. ' so she's really gone I...I'll kill her cook her inta stew I'll-no no no shut up that's not what she'd want me to do I'm so sorry Apple Bloom it's all my fault' fought A.J internally fighting with herself deciding to do what she knows her sister would want her to. "Yes it's what she wouldda wanted me ta do I swear Custos mo-rum" 'flying colors' thought Sweetie holding back her emotions as much as she could before asking her final question before she'd fully trust her. "Now one more thing can you show mercy I don't mind punishment as long as she live's through it in honesty from the nightmare and fact that it was either eat my friends or have her eat us n the fact that i ate her instead before losing it my self and eating them any way being in that shut down mindless Crise de nerfs I just lost my sister state of mind I can honestly say she completely lost it when she found that I knew and shut down or something but please ill tell you the entire story latter but fore now I need you to hold off on torture and whatever because i lied to see if I could trust you Non fat-al-ê Cutie mark croisés toujours De profundis please Pas tout est ce qu'il semble she had no idea what she was doing tell after so try not to be mad at least not now i..." explained sweetie pleading for her sisters mercy before revealing the jar in her death grip. 'what's she talking bout... Er, sister's alive why I'll...' thought A.J before gasping at what she saw "ahh apple bloom oh I thought I lost-RARITY! Ill..rrrrgh agh humph" gasped A.J a look of heavy relief quickly turning to rage the moment she saw the white unicorn before shifting to a mix of the two as she sees that they were all sleeping it was a touching scene minus what she'd done with Apple Bloom's head resting on Rarity's foreleg the mares other foreleg holding the filly close while Scootaloo sprawled out on top using Rarity's mane as a makeshift pillow while Apple Bloom used Scoots tail as a blanket with Rarity slightly curled around Apple bloom and the mare's tail covering them both. "Please Enami will you help me keep them safe especially from twilight I want her out of here or I won't come out please Custos morum" asked sweetie pleadingly. "Of course but don't think ah'm automatically gonna help her out if dash goes ballistic though " answered A.J sucking up tears while new tears found their way through. "I know thank you I I ...mng ng mmn mmn don't know whah ta do" let out sweetie unsure of herself. "You shouldn't worry much the jar ya got em in repels and defuses magic not to mention it'LL only open from the inside they should be fine in honesty it took twi an entire week ta get one open after she'd accidentally closed it" said A.J assuringly a slight choking giggle at the memory catching her breath as her sobs start to subside. "A.J are you trying to get out?" asked Twilight seeing her friend wiggle like an earth worm. "Ah hung," said A.J as clearly as she could. "Do you need help?" asked twilight readying her magic. "Rrhh sigh ml-uh " came the reply "OK Rainbow Dash grab her leg I got the other one," asked Twilight as she grabs one of A.J legs and her and Rainbow started pulling before being yelled at. "Ahh, stop-stop!" shouted A.J feeling like her head was about to pop off. "What whats wrong?" asked Twilight as they stopped pulling. Her shoulders stuck tight but head visible. Its fine now just stop pull'in listening twi she's real scared Rarity's done an spilled everything bout us she's terrified of ya and she wants ya upstairs now ah already swore so please just wait upstairs" said A.j explianingly demanding that she'd leave. "Whuh ...sigh OK," said twilight now leaving to go up, her head held low. "Easy rainbow hear er out first," said A.J standing in front of an irrational and fuming Pegasus. 'She's protecting her' thought a completely feral Pegasus. "for all the damn cider A.J she ate your sister!" Fumed dash as she tries to get around the Apple former to make a meal out of the terrified unicorn filly missing a rather large chunk of tail a short fury stub in its place. ?"I can't take this much longer," thought a cowering sweetie as she hid behind A.j in the air vent. "Now rainbow just hear her..." tried A.J cut short by an irrational athlete. "Hear her out?, she ate Scootaloo she ate your sister too how are you so calm she-" said R.D cut of by pleading shaky shout. "Nonfatal nonfatal- yes I ate em but they're okay- E.I.V.V.R! ...Scootaloo volunteered for Apple bloom n sis they're all fine!" Blurted sweetie. "Oh really so if they're all ok then where-" started R.D annoyed and unbelieving before being cut off. "It was sister initiation 23 I chose option 3 I ate her but I lost myself to the drug's and I ate Apple bloom I almost ate scoots to but she got through she told me about E.I.V.V.R and volunteered she got rarity out too please she lost it when she found I knew she wasn't herself even afterward I literally had a mentally shut out sister please mercy she wasn't thinking straight when she came back she was all most suicidal afterward she helped me initiate bloom and then she heard you and panicked I had to knock her out an...and then we didn't have any option so I please don't heart her" quickly explained sweetie before presenting the jar. 'She ate her sister her sister forced her into, Scootaloo-E.I.V.V.R they... ' thought R.D as she listened before the jar comes into view. "Scoots-argh Rarity??" Blurted R.D. 'ill rhhgh ill-sniffle squirt!" She finished in thought before overpowering Applejack. "Mercy!" Managed sweetie before being grabbed and nearly crushed by an overwhelmed cyan pegasus. "Omphnghhhrrmmng" let out sweetie now in a choking hug as she's lifted in the air. "You're not going to hurt her...me-us?" Asked sweetie In a confused choked voice. "Oh don't worry she's in doe punishment as are you F.Y.I Apple initiations are Apple clan only she may have sworn but that's only her there's a whole clan gonna be on you and your sis I don't have to lift a hoof." Told R.D. ? "ugh come on why can't I get a good scan?" Groaned twilight as she paces in front of the secret passage. ?"Huh what oh hey gummy," said pinky her pet resting on her muzzle. "It's two thirty in the AFTERNOON!!" She exclaimed seeing her clock. Running to the window to find out it was still dark. "Huh" she pondered as she looks to see her clock was wrong giving a tap the hooves jump to the correct time two thirty-six am and sighs "but why do I feel like-though-" she continued before her pinky sense kicked in. "Sweetie belle oh and I pinky swore I wouldn't let anything happen to her oh some Godmother I am" she scolded herself as she runs down to the bakery and grabs the bam ware frying pan and runs out the double western styled doors to raritys.? "So you'll explain to them what happened?" Asked sweetie. "Ah'll see what I can do thing is words all ready out but I'm sure if I send a message now at least good number of em will get it" explained A.J telling sweetie and rarity who was all most full size apparently returning fillies and full grown ponies at the same time made for singularities considering they were all the same size. "And I'm going to have to find you some tail extensions you look dreadful" came rarity looking at her sister's stub for a tail. "Seriously you just tried to eat me not ten minutes ago when you and I finished initiating bloom and all you can think about is my tail!?" Ranted sweetie offended by her sister's socialistic prioritization her right eye twitching before she tackled her sister and got muzzle to muzzle. "I have half a mind a creepy sickening side of me and right now it's telling me too mm" Continued sweetie before her sanity slides and her new additional personalities take hold of her "to eat you slowly and mm m painfully as I chew and tare inside your succulent flesh and drink your sweet bloody mm ugh lips mm and" continued sweetie as she moaned and bit off a small chunks of her sisters lips before forcing herself off fighting with her split personalities "no no no get the buck out of my head arrrrgh" she fought before- "She slipping quickly!" Said Scootaloo hurriedly as she looks at bloom before they both tackle their friend. 'There's no way, ah ain't gonna go through that again' thought Apple bloom recalling her friends sick twisted perversely insane dark side before making her move. calmer watersIt had been several hours of explaining mainly because of how long it took to convince a certain pink pony that everything was fine and had already been handled. "Sis, what's going to happen to Apple Bloom and Scootaloo?" Asked sweetie concerned about her friend's fates. "Well darling I can't say that they aren't going to be punished but I doubt that R.D and A.J will do anything too rash and as for you darling I feel sorry for you, you may not have known this at the time but refusing a meal has consequences" responded Rarity soothingly as she and her sister Sat in the basement discussing what would most likely be happening in the next few hours. "But it was my fault why are they going to be punished... it was my stupid muzzle?" Asked Sweetie a face of worry drawing her sisters attention. "Oh darling I know this is hard but trust me when I say that R.D and A.J would never do anything that could truly hurt them" coed rarity trying to be reassuring as she rubbed her sister's shoulders soothingly. meanwhile at sweet apple acres. "Ow" whimpered Apple bloom as A.J pulled her by the ear. "Wh, where are ya taking me and why am ah blindfolded?" She asked as she feels her sister guide her to where she didn't know 'where's she taking me it smells like cider' -she thought as a slight stream of drool runs into the center of her left ear- '-bleghk' she groaned as her sister stopped. "Sigh I'm sorry sugar cube but there just ain't much choice now" 'no thanks to rarity not keeping her sister's muzzle in check!**' answered Applejack ending in thought as she bent down to open the Apple cellar trap door a subtle and hunting creaking startlingly her sister. "A.J !?" Whimpered Apple bloom suddenly realizing where she was. she had heard stories of how filly knappers would take their victims to their basement and no matter what she told herself she couldn't shake the feeling that she should high tail it. "Ah know ah don't like it either sugar cube. watch your step now" said A.J solemnly as she guided her sister down any chance at escape now gone as she takes her sister inside. elsewhere in a cloud mention on the outskirts of ponyville. "Uh dash what's gonna happen to bloom her sister wouldn't just up and eat her right?" started Scootaloo Nervously, feeling guilty. " please tell me I couldn't live with myself if something happens to her knowing that I might have been able to do something why couldn't I just tell them why'd I just 'argh' what's wrong with me there's so much I could've done but I just let it happen and what about sweetie her sisters a complete statistically perverted monster sweetie's probably already half-way to bones by now and it's all my fault!!!!" Cried out the Orange Pegasus her tough front failing as she begins to break down and sob into her idol. "well If that's what you think then I've failed you miserably" stated dash the phrase catching the younger off guard evident in the teary eyes that shot up to look at her. "Listen, squirt and listen well cuz yall tell none ya hear ah been bucking. Trees long as ah can r'ecall any mother fu**** mess 'with my sis has bitten off more'han they can chew" spoke R.D in as heavy a Sutherland accent she could manage, giving all the answers needed evident from the half crying/laughing Pegasus as she brings the mess in for as comforting an embrace she could manage in the awkward position. "Sniffle mmm ahh thanks D. I just couldn't Baer loosen my friend's," said a now more emotionally stable Scootaloo. "I-wzzrrring" Started R.D interrupted by an alarm clock before looking at her adoptive sister with a sad yet predatory smile "-well sigh times come so since it was more my fault you kept your mouth shut rather than knowing what to do in a situation like that hence I should have taught you to just find me or something like that I'll let you pick the potion and punishment yourself" "You know I kinda wanna try soft v insertion vore ritual number eighteen ageless fertility full-length full size and not the short version but the one where I get to see you from the inside while I gorge myself and..." started Scootaloo Nervously as she rubbed her forelimb with her hoof. "-!Whoo you mean geez scoots and I thought I was the sick one, wait are you sure you know what you're saying squirt?" Asked a flustered dash showing a rather dark blush. "If it means you take me in and the potion regresses my age whilst adding that age to my life expectancy then yes?" Said Scootaloo in a nervous plea. "Uh yeah" was all that the cyan Pegasus could say as a little more than eager and perverted Pegasus licked her chops an even bigger sadistic predatory smile across her muzzle causing her idle to give a nervous seriously look. meanwhile below the boutique Sweetie Sat wondering what would have happened had she not come back from the clubhouse. "Sweetie, I'm sorry but the book as sickening and wrong as it is rules are rules darling now I'm stuck with the fact that I have to punish you but because of my actions you have to punish me as well, Now I've chosen something that will be beneficial for the both of us though you still have to punish me afterward sigh" explained rarity sighing she levitate's a strange bottle of blurry white bubbling liquid and placed it in front of her sister. "Rarity?" Asked Sweetie nervously looking at what smelled like nothing she could determine. "it's a muscle relaxant though it won't paralyze you it will make your body feel like a pile of bricks" explained rarity sighing she makes her way to what appeared to be a closet hearing her sister gasp when she reveals a second room hidden behind the exceedingly simple door. "This, this room is very special not only for the fact that it cost me around two point three million bits in total cost but the fact that it has over six thousand plus enchantments that keep any form of dust pathogens INSECTS etc. Out but will keep my dearest succulent morsel in tell din..he hem sorry bad habits die hard anyway with the ritual I've chosen I'll not only be able to protect you but also make you and I a thousand times stronger and closer together than ever before Mahwah haha hack cough heh heh hehe... squee" told rarity creepily ending with an evil Laugh only to wind up choking on it finishing with a nervous giggle she looks over to see her sister cowering in the corner of the room. "It's ok she's just lost a couple of marbles nothing to get freaked out about oh crap she's looking at me, SHE'S GONNA EAT ME!!!!!" Thought sweetie trying to assure herself that her sister wasn't going to hurt her failing miserably and panicking. "Oh my I'm sorry I just got carried away with the moment darling I...ill give you space but just listen, I oh, I've really scared you didn't I sigh," tried Rarity sighing as she makes her way to her sister stopping a little ways away from her noticing her sisters fear. "d.d.don't eat me!" Let out sweetie taking a peak with one eye she sees that her sister had stopped a few yards away from her and was laying on her stomach a soothing smile letting her know she wasn't going to feast on her, yet at least. "S.s.s. Sis?" Asked sweetie shaken. "Yes, darling" responded Rarity in a comforting tone. "What are you going to do to me?" Asked a death shaken sweetie as she got as small as she could make herself. "a.J?" Asked Apple Bloom nervously as she takes the final stair down. "Ah know sugar cube but its unavoidable ah'm not one of the heads of the Apple clan vore community there's not much ah can do" Said A.J walking over to one of four giant cider barrels and sliding several wooden disks and rings unlocking the secret door as the giant barrel opens revealing a series of rock may sound underground paths. "Apple clan vore community?" Asked Apple Bloom before she's startled by the grinding groan of something. "Shh be completely silent sugar cube if ya talk in here, well newbies and initiates ain't allowed ta talk unless spoken to and if you do they may make me eat ya or worse" explains A.J silencing her sister. "What!?" Exclaimed A.B stammering back and falling on her rump. "Shh shh easy it's gonna be OK but no matter what ya can't say anything please promise me not a squeak and don't take off the blindfold only certain ponies are allowed ta talk an see the leader's please Bloom ah'm begging ya ah can't face losing ya, what they'll make me do" said a.j emphasizing the importance of being silent and leaving the blindfold on as she caught up with her squirming sister and pinned her to the ground. "Ah.ah ah'm scared w.whats"- stammered apple bloom cut off- "shh easy ah'll see what I can do they may make me punish ya and ah hope so because I won't do anything that'll, well kill ya-easy it's gonna be fine but whatever ya don't talk unless spoken to and don't take off the blindfold please ah can't even say how important that is pinky promise please Bloom ah'm begging ya" exclaimed A.J pleading that her sister would do as told as she takes the mortified filly into an embrace the trembling mass fighting back from the death grip. elsewhere in the basement. Five hours after the confession. "So when this is over I can go see my friends!?". Asked sweetie questioningly as she hopped it was sum nightmare And her friends were fine as she slowly walked towards her sister in the strange glowing doorway. "Yes, darling but we both need a good bathing I'm just glad I can't smell anything I don't even want to think about it!" Answered Rarity truth be told she lost touch with smell hours ago as she lured her younger sibling closer into what she hoped would be a friendly trap. "Sis-your not gonna eat me right!??" asked a nervous/traumatized sweetie slowing her pace as she waited for confirmation and assurance. meanwhile in a cloud mention with a cyan pegasus. "Ahhh heerp urrp" R.D belched out a red puff of potion after mist having finished the vore ritual as empty bottles of different varieties littered the cloud bed a distended gut giving an occasional wriggling. "Ugh hey dash how long does this ritual take exactly?" Asked an oddly calm meal in a voice that started to sound, board. "Well let's see mm nn huh well it takes a unicorn about twenty-eight to thirty hour's and huh well that's gonna be tight" voiced R.D realizing a tight schedule fit. "What what is it!?" at that same moment below ground "Take one more step I dare ya" warned A.J standing protectively over her sister as Apple Bloom held blindly onto her right forelimb like a vice. Things had gone south fast despite her sister's silence the entire council had accused treasonous actions against her saying she had convulsed with the unicorn hoard a group that had plagued their community for generations. "Y'all know the incident, what I've done to keep her out of this morbid and murderous community" continued a.j holding her ground. "Ya dare doubt a' member of the Apple clan an element" fumed a.j looking at her sister she makes her choice. "Ah call on the judgment of the high elders let my Sis ta' me!" Yelled a.j albeit respectfully as everypony cloak an all went silent and looked toward four figure's in brown and red clokes who then began communing with themselves before looking at her sister and spoke. "And what do you suggest as clemency?" Asked the elders in unison the vocal effect sending a chill down her spine. "That she be given a chance to prove herself and I be the one to tend, punish, and care for her" responded a.j as she held her sister closer and waited for the response. The room was Erie as the elders discussed before there final judgment. "She has six moons tell final judging if she fails to meet standards she will be your punishment"-slam* with the mallet struck and judgment made a.j sighs. "the leader's have spoken..." A.j Shuts out the sound of the adviser as the underground council hall began to clear out. Meanwhile, a more certain unicorn filly inquires further on her sister's intentions trying her best to relax. "So I just relax Intel I'm all soft and my fur's like silk? Isn't this just another bath?" Asked sweetie as she soaked in the thick clear white liquid in an eight-foot-wide circler pool built into the floor of the room the liquid giving a faint glow. "a very special bath" came rarity's reply as she did her mane. "Hey, I thought you said we couldn't dry off or it would make the Ritual Harder or even fail?" Complained Sweetie looking at her own Wet and unkempt mane. "No darling I said if your mane was dry it would make it harder that's why your soaking dearie." Said rarity as she comes out from the bathroom her mane sporting its natural curls.' now that your marinating I can get started' she thought giggling as she sees her sister give an all to familiar pout. "Oh, so what happens when I'm done soaking?" Asked sweetie pulling a hoof out as the clear oily liquid fell back into the pool in strings. "Well, how heavy do you feel you remember that spell I taught you right?" Asked rarity as she joined her sister in the thick liquid the liquid gaining a brighter glow. "Like I haven't slept in days and I'm out of energy but full of energy at the same time but not as tired either yet sleepy?" Answered sweetie questioning her choice of wording as she felt a lot happening around and within herself. "Wonderful darling now you can still use your magic right?" Rarity asked as she rested her neck on the rim of the tub and watched her sister carefully. "Yeah why?" questioned sweetie looking at her sister. "Because we're going to start Darling," said Rarity as she began casting the first spell on her sister carefully watching for negative feedback. "Oh OK so do I cast my spell now?" Asked sweetie as her sisters magic washed over her as its warm soothing embrace calmed her she began to relax. 'this feels much better' he thought as the soothing feeling almost made her melt. "Yes darling now you cast your spell on me remember to start slow and ease your way into it" answered rarity watching as her sisters shoulders relaxed and fell below the thick liquid 'oh darling I'm going to hate myself for this I just hope your not too scarred by the end... if only I had enough potions you'd sleep through the worst of it' she thought as she sees her sister gain a soft smile brightening her mood though it did little to help her Guilt. "Hmm ok" sighed sweetie as she began casting the spell her sister had taught her. she giggled as her horn felt fuzzy and her magic tickled as it washed over her sister before becoming taught as her sister began pulling it in and around her the fuzzy feeling becoming warm and slightly prickly. 'Now to start the ritual stage one soul binding step one, synchronize are ora's' thought rarity as she began the ritual going over each stage and step one by one as she completes them. "Rarity?" Asked sweetie as she began to feel tired yet somehow full of warm energies. "Shh darling just keep concentrating on my energy... you can cast the second phase now sweetie" answered rarity as she feels her sisters magic begin to blend with her own before her sisters warm energy pulled it in and it became taught opening her eye she sees the rim of the tub glow with symbols seeing that they were in order she began to merge her and her sisters magic ora's 'there now step two life energy's' she contemplated as she began the next spell "careful now rarity one miss step and you either absorb her soul or her entirely!' She told herself as she felt her sister's life drainage being careful to leave enough in her sister to ensure she wouldn't die and began to pull her own life energy's and blind them in the center of the tub making sure she and her sister had an equal amount in them. she took a peek to see the swirling energies in the center of the warm liquids turning back to the spell before dividing the warm blinded energies between her and her sister the fuzzy feeling bringing a smile to her face. "Rarity I feel funny giggle like I'm weightless yet pulled in every direction at once!?" Called sweetie questioningly giggling at the strange feeling. "It's fine Darling just relax and concentrate" soothed rarity as she leveled out the energy's between her and her sister and now feeling one with her sister's life force's she began casting the third spell. 'OK now stage two psychokinesis' thought rarity as she began casting the telekinetic linking spell being careful not to mix memories as she delved into her sister's mind and began linking her and her sister's mentality. "OK, darling now let your mind go blank" tried rarity telepathically. "Ok" replied sweetie. 'I feel like I could stay in here for Day's' she thought to herself as she felt loose and relaxed all her worries forgotten. Rarity hearing her Sister's thoughts finalizes the spell a mental pinch signaling its completion. 'Good night rarity I love you sigh mmm' mentally Droned sweetie tiredly. "I love you to Darling it will all be over soon sigh," said rarity watching her sister's chest rise and fall 'now that Your sleeping I can begin stage three I just wish I didn't have to put you through this but it's either that or I have to, oh I can't even bring myself to think about it, it's so dreadful but at least I can heal you my sweet little marshmallow' she thought as she knew the ritual would make her sister stronger. scrambled"Moolbelppa moolbelppa! Ouh?" Said sweatie happily as she tackles her friend. "Uh a.j?" Began applebloom as an eager friend nearly hugs her to death before gaining a confused look. 'She's. She's fried?she's a complete mess! Rrrggh rarity!!' Thought a.j fuming as she watched, sweatie happily yet oddly tackle her sister. 'What's wrong with her, why's she looking at me that way? oh no is there something wrong with my face!' Questions sweatie as she looks at the strange scrunched raised eye brow look her friend was giving her. "Moolbelppa?" She asks again the strange look only growing more confusing. 'Why what the hay did rarity do to you!?' Thought applebloom as her friend blurted nonsense a little slower this time though. 'Can't she speak did she lose her voice?! Oh no why, what did she do to you?' Thought sweatie as she felt her nose burn. "Moolbelppa?" She asks as she's bringing her friend in for a hug. 'What's wrong with her?' Thought applebloom as her friend embraced her and began sniffling. "It. Its ok ng..emph" began applebloom before the air is forced out of her longs by a massive squeeze. 'She,oh why..auh' thought sweatie before nearly crushing her friend at the sound of her voice. 'That's it,that's wait moolb?wait bloom, she's not fried she's scrambled?! Ah think, gonna have ta listen ta know fur sure' contemplated a.j as she watched her sister gently stroke her friends mane. "Era ouy thgirla?" Asked sweatie sniffling as she felt her friends warm embrace. 'Ah can't just let er talk and not say anythin rrgh rarity why' thought applebloom trying to think of how she'd help her friend as she felt her sob and sniffle into her shoulder. "Its OK sweetie yer fine now I'm fine um ya remember when we tried getting are marks as translators" soothed apple bloom getting an idea . "Sey I rebemer ouy tog eugnot tghf splgh by hlu nm? Rrgh uhmph?!" Spoke sweatie as her tongue knots. "Ya remember how long it took us ta, well talk right?" Continued applebloom as her friend spluttered. "Asdblop sdrop splease muy thung numnb!?" Tried sweatie failing. "U murk snow ut u id" slurs sweatie as her friend giggled. "Peter piper picked a smek a spleh bluh blouse whah?" Tried applebloom tying herself up in the process "ugh snout sme stew" finished bloom unable to keep a straight face as she began in contagious laughter her friend joining her. "Sngggk haha ya two sound bout as bad as pinkie n poison joke!" Laughed out a.j getting up and bringing the two over tight in embrace nuzzling her sister. "BwA ha ha yeah total spitty pie moment huh ow hay no kicking in there!?" Laughs R.D before she felt her new aficial sister give a rather painful jerking. "ah ha ha oh heh auh sigh sorry sigh that was funny though, hey can I talk to sweetie and apple bloom now yawn auh sigh please dash? asked scootaloo yawning as she apologized. "If you can stay awake long enough" said dash with a light challenge. "Now hold on that depends on the girls" broke in a.j but before she could finish she's interrupted "Ah still have a few thing ah wanna ask yawn her" cut in applebloom the contagious laughter replaced with yawns. "w,Ate scootaloo us ear?" Came sweetie's scrambled response as she shoots upright nearly catapulting applebloom off as she sat up. "Yeah she's around?" Said a.j not sure if sweatie could handle one more detail looking at her 'in a heap sister' for support. "Uh sweats um dash, we'll yeah?" Added applebloom not sure how she should word it. "She.. Uh ng ate Or gulp v?" Swallows sweatie nervously not sure what to hope for. "Yeah she huh wait you know bout th's stuff?" Said applebloom surprised getting a nervous nodding in response she continues. "....v..." She murmurs hearing a hard swallow in reply. "its OK sweats um dash could ya go over there so I can make sure she's OK?" asked scootaloo hopefully. "Uh um that, that's just wrong ng" said sweetie as she began to make her way over but stopped when she realized she wouldn't have to. "Yer handling th's stuff a lot better then ah did" said applebloom as she watched R.D make her way over. "Oh trust my I not" murmured sweetie as dash sat down in front of them. "Alright five minutes course I wanna take a nap yawn" said dash yawning as she felt her sister squirm inside her once more. "uh hehe hey sweetie um well other than being board I'm actually quite cozy in here hehe" started scootaloo nervously not sure what to talk about. "Uh hi so my sister ng gave birth to meand now your uh, when are you um doe?"tried sweatie warming up as she felt her friends embrace. 'Why'd I let her chose this?!' Thought dash mentally berating herself as she watched applebloom hug sweatie. "whenever I want, wait your sister did what?!" responded scootaloo taken back. "Uh ng um so you want to come out now? Heh heh" diverted sweetie just wanting to forget the experience. ".." "Scootaloo?" Asked sweetie as she put her ear against Dash's gut as she felt her friend wriggle. "um yeah, that. well I don't want to come out now because if I stay in longer my wings might get bigger" said scootaloo nervously. "Uh but, but I want to see you and, I can't.. I want you" stammered sweatie trying to wrap her head around the reasons her friend would stay in such a place. "its OK sweats I'll be here, its just I don't want to miss any chance I might have at flying" said scootaloo feeling selfish. "Ya think it'll work?" Asks applebloom as she puts her ear against Dash's gut as she continued hugging sweatie. "uh yeah, I mean if I just came out now I might not get another chance, I mean its not every day you get to be reborn n whatever" said scootaloo not sure of what she should say. "......if you think it'll help I'm OK with it, I just want um you out here with me...an, I really hope it works" said sweetie as she felt her friend wriggle again. "Yeah scoots I think it's worth a go,um just don't take to long I need ya out here with me" added applebloom trying to be supportive despite what she wanted. " thank you guys!, don't worry I won't be to long I promise it yawn sigh" said scootaloo happily as she felt tired. "Yeah uh scoots?" Asked sweatie as her friend drones off. "Did she really just fall asleep?" Asks applebloom out loud as she listens for her friend to answer her. "Come on y'all I think I yawn agree with scoots" yawned a.j as she looks at her sisters as she hugged sweatie. "Yeah yawn I think I could use a nap" added dash. "Uh a.j where's my sister?" Asked sweatie nervously as she let dash lay down. "She's out side, uh ah'll go get her fur ya" started a.j as she made her way to the door. "Um could you not tie her.. I mean thanks" said sweatie catching herself as her hooves felt like they were tied together knowin that they weren't meant rarity's were. "Yeah sh..uh... Ah'll get er?" Responded a.j a bit caught of guard as she opens the door and goes out. 'how the hey did she know that?!' She thinks as she closes it behind her. 'Sigh too close rarity said I can't tell anypony just keep it together its just, oh who am I kidding I'll be a nut case by tomorrow!' Thought sweatie nervously as she felt herself guided into a lying position. 'Come on sweetie just hang in there' thought applebloom hopefully as she noticed sweatie's dead pan stair. 'Please don't break again ah just got ya back' she thought as she guided her freshly moldable friend to lay down watching as sweetie just went with whatever movement she guided her into. 'I just need to relax she's fine I know she is because of that freaky binding ritual! Breath in breath out sigh I'm safe warm, my friends are OK and so is sis' sweatie told herself as she felt herself pulled in tighter in her friends warm and calming embrace. 'How'd she know that? Did..sigh just a few days an everythin handled' thought a.j as she comes out of the fort and closes the door behind her. 'Why what was I think... Was I thinking? Oh sweetie I'm so sorry I wish you would've just eaten me at least then you wouldn't of gone through as much' thought rarity scorning herself. 'Rrgh ah can't believe ya... Ah can't believe ya would do this ta yer own sister' thought a.j as she walks over to a motionless hog tied unicorn. 'At least I know that she's safe if the ritual worked that is, I'll just let her sleep she probably doesn't ever want to see me again' contemplated rarity as she felt like she was in a warm embrace. Sigh perhaps I can get one of the girls to put...no stop thinking like that oh who am I kidding huh... Well at least I won't be hear fur much longer' she thinks as she heard somepony coming toward her and looks over to see a.j's expressionless face a few feet away. 'She won't be like sweatie was, would she?' Thought dash watching as the Two slept like two pees in a pod. 'At least she's doing better now' she thinks as she felt her sister move once more as she watched laying on her side as sweatie and blooms chests rose and fell. 'What's going to happen to me? I don't want to be a cannibal!' Thought sweatie as she let her friend hold her. 'Ah don't wanna eat ponies especially my friends n family! I won't eat ponies ah won't!' Thought applebloom defiantly as she held her friend tighter. 'This has ta be some kind of nightmare it just ain't right!' She thought denying anything as truth. 'Why, why us?' Thought sweatie and the more she did the more she thought of their fates. 'Wait she wouldn't would she?' Thought applebloom thinking back to sweetie absentmindedly sleep walking to gnaw on her sister. Worried her friend might sleep eat her. ' but wait my sis is at least three time her size would that even work? Ah was shrunken when she went an ate me so?' She thought a little more at ease the more she did. 'Maybe ah'm just, ah just don't know anymore, what if she shrinks me in her sleep! no stop thinking like DAT she's my best friend she was drugged; but she still ate me!' She continued perturbed at the memory an mear thought of it happening again. 'Why, what's wrong with me why'd I put my sister through this?' Thought rarity as she staired at one of her friends. "Hey?" Said a.j looking at the mess that lay before her. "Ya in there?" She asked as her friend just stairs at her. 'What's she going to do to me?' Thought rarity as her friend addresses her. 'Oh please just get it over with' she thought, waiting for whatever her friend was going to do with her. "Yer sis asked if I'd come n get ya, and if you try anythin ah'll make ya pay regardless ya hear?" Said a.j annoyed she was doing this despite herself. But it was for sweetie and her sisters sake's and she'd made a promise one she planned to keep. 'Please just get it... Wait she..?' Thought rarity caught off guard by what was said not believing it. As a.j began untying her. "Yeah I think she needs ya ta answer somthin fur er" said a.j noticing the distant look her friend had as starts unwinding the rope from rarity's legs. "And I think she might be a sleep eater" finished a.j raping the rope up and putting it over her shoulder watching as her friends legs just go limp and slumped to her chest. Sighing she grabs rarity by the tail and drags her to the forts woven sheet and pillow door. 'She wants to..question?' Thought rarity as she feels herself dragged across the floor not caring as she tries to think of what her sister would ask. 'She wouldn't oh I hope she isn't' she thought before working the nerve to ask. "A. A.j?" Tried rarity nervously as she found herself by the forts door. 'Sigh why... huh?' Thought a.j going to open the door stopping as she hears her name murmured turning to see a pleading face looking up at her. "Ah don't know she didn't sound mad yet again she didn't show anythin really" said a.j answering the most likely question. "And ah think it would be better if ya walk in yerself" she finished seeing a few tears streaming her friends cheeks as she thought of what she might be able to do in her current position. 'She's probably hungry uh oh my saddle bags or I could just offer myself, no it's her decision she needs me and I'm not going to leave her not like that, OK rarity you can fix this oh why?' Thought rarity as her mind started to race. 'Come on say something!' She berates herself trying to think of what she would say n do when she saw her sister. "I.. I saddlebags" she murmured as she started looking around still on her back. 'I don't know why but ah feel like ah'm safe right now; but why shouldn't ah feel like... well uh sigh what's going to happen now that we're.? Sigh why, ah'm I gonna have to eat ponies or well what ugh this is so confusing?!' Thought applebloom wondering what she and her friends lives would be like after everything was said and done. As she listened to her friends heart beat the rhythm making her feel safer and calmer for a reason she couldn't put a hoof on. 'At least we're alive I don't think ah'd be able to go on if somthin happened to them' she finished as she began weighing the good things. 'She, why'd she oh rarity you idiot! Rgh I'll... I..I love you oh please' thought sweetie the earlier experience coming back to her. 'Oh my ng she, wait are we still sisters or what?' She thought as a few unfriendly things started toying with her thoughts and views of her sister. Gripping her friend tighter the more she thought about it. Before she felt something stroking her mane. 'So am ah a cannibal now or um I ate ponies so...huh?' Contemplates applebloom before she felt sweetie tense up to hear a small whimper escaping her friend. "Its OK sweats I'm still here yer fine," said applebloom soothingly as she began stroking her friend's mane and holding her tighter. "I'm scared I I I don't know anymore what if I ng I I I ng sleep?" whimpered sweetie as she felt like giving up. "It's going to be OK" assured applebloom soothingly in hear friends ear as sweetie berried herself into her more. "Shh just rest I'm still here scootaloo's, well fine just try an rest" finished applebloom soothing her as much as she could as she felt sweetie loosen up a bit. 'But what if I eat you?!' Thought sweetie trying to stay awake but finding it harder the more her friend comforted her. 'Please? I'm hungry I don't want to sigh eat yawn you mnn sigh' finished sweetie thinking she had said it out loud as she drifts off into nothingness. "Shh yer fine everything will be fine yawn ah love ya sweats sigh yawn good night mnn sigh" soothed applebloom before she started dozing out. "Everything's fine yawn sigh" she droned out falling asleep herself resting her head in sweatie's mane. "Here, now ah'll check on em while ya figure out what yer gonna do," said a.j hoofing rarity her saddle bags, rarity grabbing them with her magic looking more distant the canterlot. '......?' Oh what am I going to do?' Thought rarity as she watched a.j open the forts door and quietly go in. "Mmmm oh I know, no uh maybe just talk,sigh OK she's sleeping now so I better get ready ouh she's starving I haven't felt that kind of hunger before oh I hope I brought enough' she thought using the physic connections with her sister to determine what she'd need as she goes through her bags taking out a few Jared pony's cucumber sandwiches, marshmallow treats, chocolate, and other choice treats. "Oh I hope I have enough Verity's she can be such a picky eater sometimes" said Rarity as she thought of how hungry her sister felt to her. 'Oh I hope you knew what this entailed scoot I really do' thought R.D as she gave her belly a few rubs. 'At least you'll have your friends to talk about it' she thought opening her eyes to see Applebloom embracing sweatie using her mane as a pillow. 'Sigh I can't wait till you get your flank out here I wonder how long you'll wait yourself' pondered R.D as she heard familiar grumbling. "So?" Asked R.D not bothering to look knowing the grumbling anywhere. "Sigh a mess" murmured a.j not bothering to go into detail as she made her way over to her sister and sweetie. "Sigh sleeping?" She finished noticing the soft slow breaths of the two fillies. "Yeah, is she still uh?" Responded R.D asking her own question. "Better just silent an such ya know?" Said a.j looking towards dash and the door behind her as she sits down. "Think she'll recuperate?" Asks R.D as she gives her stomach a short pat resting her hoof over it. "She better and soon cause ah need er thinking straight so ah can give er a!..sigh why'd she do this what could've made er think that this was...what better?" Responded a.j rising her voice slightly before lowering it not wanting to disturb her sister or sweetie. "I don't know but what I did is when scoots found out I knocked her out and imprisoned her for twelve hours ate her tell she's almost soup before i finally wised up and even after she told me everything was fine i still kept her locked in the house for three daysdays" responded R.D listing the irrational things she did. "And even during all that not once did twilight cross my mind" she finished letting a.j ponder for a bit. "You know I love scootaloo like my own hek after this she will be if she wants that she's my sister and now by blood she my dogh,..ter oh celesta why'd I let her talk me into this?"continued R.D just realizing what she was. 'I'm not ready to be a mom!!' She screamed internally a light whimpering escaping her lips. 'She's right it's easy ta snap under that kind of pressure just the thought of losing her makes me slightly less rational' thought a.j, as a strange sound made it to her ears starting low but growing looking towards dash, was all the answer she needed. "Didn't think things out did ya uh wait she convinced you huh well good luck n all but ah gotta go n check on rares?" said a.j nonchalantly as she made her way out. 'I hope she's ready by now' thought a.j opening the door and heading out closing it behind her she turns around to find the strangest assortment of packables littered in front of her from jars to sandwiches."rares whatta ya doing?" Candy's to fruit. "Sigh need help?" She asks looking at a dishevelled unicorn currently trying to fit everything back in her saddle bags. 'Oh is it enough, OK wait how'd I fit all this?' Thought rarity not noticing a.j tell she glanced in her direction. "Oh hey um darling um hehe squire" stammered rarity shoulders jumping a bit from being startled. "Sigh ya want help?" Asked a.j motioning to the mine field of treats and food that laid strewn before her. "Heh heh um maybe?" Murmured rarity still trying to fit everything. "Sigh yes, I have no idea how I even fit it all in the first place" she finished letting a.j bring her things as she put them away. "So do ya know what her gonna do?" Asked a.j grabbing a few things and putting them away. "I I'm oh wh... A.j am I sane?" Asked Rarity not looking towards a.j as she filled the left side of her saddle bags. "Uh sigh yer as sane as ya can be with all this, yer crazy but not insane," said a.j thinking of the time she'd known her. as she finished filling the right bags with packables closing the flap. "Mn wh...how bad is it, her I mean how is she up top?" Asked rarity looking down her voice cracking. "Uh she was a bit off apple bloom helped she's sleeping now ...sigh ya scramble er rares?" Responded a.j "A.j the truth...ng don't mg" stammered rarity closing the left side of her saddlebags her hoof shaking as she does. " sigh ok ok she was more maulable than clay whatever position ya put her in she kept it eyes straight forward but she's fine now applebloom got her out," said a.j explaining "Sh...dea...sho...wh ng I horrid in horrid sister what w..I wasn't thinking why mg" stuttered rarity her voice choking as she began shaking. "Its OK she OK now uh she wants to see ya she's sleeping now ah think she needs ta see a familiar face when she wakes up" countered a.j knowing the drama she'd be there for hours as brought rarity over to the fort as she used her magic to bring her saddlebags over. 'Oh Celestia I'm a mother I... just relax your cool how hard can it be she's been with me for six days in my house just go to the foster center and sing a few peppers not that hard breathe oh celesta why'd I let her do this, wait did she plan this oh you little mng sigh' contemplated dash as her thoughts raced not noticing the two joining her company. "Sigh just find where yer comfortable and get some rest ah think she might be a sleep eater so we're gonna have ta deal with it n all but fur now just let er rest" whispered a.j as she made her way to lay next to her sister rarity doing the same putting her saddle bags in the corner next to a.j's. 'Sleep eater? Oh, dear' thought rarity as she moved to lay down next to her sister bringing herself to rest as close as she could manage without disturbing her. Oh rares ya really gone an screwed up this time sigh just three more days an everything 'll be fine' thought a.j lay down next to her sister bringing herself to rest as close as she could manage without disturbing her sibling. Resting her eyes as she listings to her sister's soft light breathes she wonders what her sister could be dreaming if she wasn't having a nightmare as she slowly allows herself to drift. prologueIt was a seemingly normal day at carousel and rarity was as busy as she ever was. her sister was over helping again as she remembered she'd left something important in her room. “Sweetie Belle in my room in my vanity drawer there's a list of orders and clientele would you be a dear and grab it for me?” asked Rarity as she looked at her sister redoing the display as she swapped old dresses out with new ones. “OK, then when you're done with your orders you can teach me how to knit” answered Sweetie excitedly happy to spend time with her sister as she sat next her watching her sister placing a new dress on the display. 'then we can finally have some time to ourselves she's so busy it's like she never gets a break' she thought going over the past two days having an entire month with her sister. “Knit?” repeated Rarity questioningly. looking at her sister puzzled. "You know you promised me yesterday that you would teach me knitting remember?" questioned Sweetie, wondering why her sister seemed ill-informed of this fact as she sat looking at her confused. 'she honestly forgot I told her yesterday!' she thought surprised. 'she must be super busy but when doesn't she forget?' she finished as she thought of a possible reason her sister would forget. "(Uh oh right oh I'm sorry Sweetie but)- these orders can't wait,” finished, Sweetie as she felt like her sister was avoiding her. ‘Sigh she always forgets’ she thinks as she sighs inwardly. "Yes. I. I'm ..sorry darling I just got caught up I'm sure if I..um. How about tomorrow” said Rarity as she noticed the disappointment in her sister's eyes. ‘I have to do something about this workaholism..thing Twilight keeps mentioning’ thought Rarity scolding herself as she set up the dresses to where they showed their best colors. “OK,” said Sweetie half-hearted. ‘sometimes It feels like she’s avoiding me but why?’ she thought as she heads up the stairs. ‘I wonder what Apple Bloom and Scoots are doing right now’ pondered Sweetie as she opens her sister's door, heads over to her sister's vanity and opens the top left drawer. ‘Maybe they're doing something fun’ she thought as she grabs the clipboard and closes the drawer. ‘ I'll ask Rarity if I can go see Apple Bloom’ voiced Sweetie as she heads down the stairs. "Rarity is it OK if I go and see what Apple Bloom and Scoots are up to." Asked Sweetie giving Rarity the list. "Um sure darling just be back before supper you’re saddlebags are in my room next to my sewing supplies” answered Rarity.as she takes the list from her sister looking it over not even looking her sister's way. 'now if I finish today I should have enough time by Saturday to finally spend a day with her why I always get extra orders when she visits is beyond my understanding at least it's good for business' she thought as she watched her sister in the corner of her eye. “Thanks, Rarity,” said Sweetie as she runs back up to her sister's room- ‘I wonder what Scoots is doing’ -wondered Sweetie as she grabs her saddlebags. ‘Rarity sure did a great job fixing my bags- uh?’ thought sweetie and as she grabs them a book falls and hits her in the muzzle- “oww,” - she let out as she picks up the book. 'V.O.R.E? What's vore’ she questioned - ‘huh’ - she shrugged putting it in her saddlebags and heading out. ‘Maybe I should ask Rarity...no from the way she’s got it marked it looks personnel’ concluded Sweetie going down the stairs. “By Rarity,” she called back, heading out the door and closing it behind her. Fast forward “so what is it ya wanted ta show us Sweetie?” asked Apple Bloom as she sits next to Scoots in their clubhouse. 'she looks nervous I hope it's nothing that will get us in trouble' she thought as she waited for her friend to explain what she was hiding. “It's a bit disturbing I really don’t know if I should even have it... to be honest,” said Sweetie. looking nervously at her friend's as they sat in a circle. what i'm I doing rarity going to be mad at me? ' she thought worried and embarrassed she had taken something she figures she shouldn't have as she felt a pit sink in her stomach the book giving of an ill feeling energy. “come on Sweetie it's not like it's her diary,” said Scoots. making a passive gesture with a hoof as she looked curiously at her friend's saddlebags. 'can't be too dangerous if sweetie has it' she thought as she sat next to apple bloom eager to see what her friend brought. 'she looks embarrassed is it something like what I found in my aunt's room that was disturbing I didn't need to see that' she thought as she sweetie went through her saddlebags. “-sigh- OK” sighed Sweetie as she presents the book in question. One minute later. -Heumlk..mmmm- “OK that's just. Just WRONG!?” exclaimed Scootaloo as Apple Bloom and Sweetie hurl out of windows on opposite sides of the clubhouse while Scootaloo just gags. 'well it's not something you shove but I wouldn't be bothered if she shoved this into a blender' she thought as her friends lost their lunch. " who in Equestria would….who in Tartarus could do... Mmm hum blah...who's the author?” asked A.B throwing up a second time. 'that's so sick' she thought the thought and image making her hurl again. 'i've never read something so disturbing in my entire life there's something wrong with her sister' she thought as she caught her breath. "Uh, it doesn’t say I checked” answered Sweetie. Catching her breath and walking over. whipping the spittle from her mouth as the taste of stomach acid made her want to throw up again. 'why do you have such a thing what the hell are you into' she thought not sure what to do as her view of her sister changed. “You said that you found this in Rarity's room right?” asked Scoots. Sweetie putting the cursed book in her saddlebags and looking shyly at her friend. 'if it's rarity's that means sweeties in trouble big time I should get rainbow dash' she thought concerned for her friend knowing rainbow dash didn't take kindly to her snooping around when she visited her house. “Sweetie? You know what that means don't you?” Asked Scootaloo as she sat thinking about what she was reading curious about why her friend's sister would have it. “um,” said Sweetie not wanting to answer. as she sat down in the same spot as before. “It means yer sis is a cannibalistic monster!” exclaimed A.B angrily as she looked at sweetie in disgust. 'i can't believe rarity has something so perverted and sick in er room what the hell is she doing when she's all to herself like my sis does every so often reading her fancy novels and leaving a mess on her bed' thought apple bloom as she came to sit with her friends. “MY SISTER'S NOT A MONSTER!” yelled Sweetie in denial. Meanwhile back at the boutique. “Have a nice day dear,” said Rarity as Fluttershy exits the boutique. "Well now let's see Fluttershy -grrrrgle- oh be quiet,” said Rarity going over the day's checklist when she starts to feel hungry. “Hello → yes come in" answered Rarity as a new customer comes in the boutique. “ Welcome to Carousel Boutique, where every garment is chic, unique and magnifique. How can I help you?” asked Rarity. As the customer comes in. "hi, I was passing through PonyVille on my way to whitetail wood to meet up with my friends for a hiking trip and my pack ripped. I asked around and I was told you might be able to help?” said incline explaining. 'wow, what a nice place she's beautiful' he thought looking around admiring the lovely mare in front of him as he walks up to her. "Well, you certainly came to the right place I was just about to take lunch. Why don't you come over here and I'll fix it right up” said Rarity. ‘this is perfect I haven't added a hiker to my collection before I wonder if he tastes like s'mores. no Rarity stay strong you're doing so good. you know you want to hmm. s'mores no, I..I...I oh screw this stupid diet I'm starving’ thought Rarity fighting her hunger-induced impulses and failing as she stitches the pack “they're good as new” she said watching her new prey. "So how much do I owe you?” asked Incline. “not a thing darling” answered Rarity casting a spell while he looked the other way. “really? Wow you're so generous, thank you so- humph,” said Incline before the spell knocked him out. “No ~~thank you~~,” said Rarity as she heads to the secret basement that no pony knew existed. levitating incline. ‘Oh, I wonder what I'll have you with dates dried fruit oh maybe a Keish giggle’ thought Rarity reaching the hidden door behind the storage room fabric shelves. Back with the crusaders. “Are you sure about this” asked Sweetie. looking at her friends uncertain of the idea.'their crazy I can't shrink her what if I hurt her' she thought, scootaloo's idea playing on her mind as she looked through the book finding what she was looking for as she ignored everything else. “I'm positive if you're sister can shrink a pony I'm betting you can get your cutie mark in uh well what would you call a pony that shrinks ponies for a living?” said Scoots not sure what to call the talent as she held the book to a specific page. 'what was it called there has to b a name for it' she thought as she encouraged her friend. “I don't know it looks really complicated,” said Sweetie questioning the idea as she goes over the spell in the book uncertain of herself. 'what if she gets squished or we lose her in the grass there's way to much risk' thought sweetie as she went over her friend's idea to get back at their bully. “Maybe Twilight can help?” suggested Apple Bloom as she grabbed an apple from a branch that needed to be cut just outside the window. 'know I know twilight can shrink easy she can literally lift an Ursa and put it back into the woods' she thought as she went over the memory of how snips and snails brought an Ursa to town. “what if she...what if I accidentally make diamond explode! or melt or turn inside out!?” asked Sweetie a worried expression on her face. not hearing her friend as she panics about the idea while Apple Bloom lays the apple on the floor for Sweetie to test out. “Relax you’ve been practicing with Twilight for what a year I mean you're going Mondays and Wednesdays now as well," said Scoots. "What's the worst that can happen- fleer nm-pop/squelch/splat-sizzle,” said Scootaloo as said apple turns into burnt applesauce and explodes all over her face and the clubhouse. “bluhhk,” said Scootaloo as she wipes it off. “What if I do that!” exclaimed Sweetie pointing a hoof at the said mess. Eyes wide pupils small the thought and image of her school bully suffering the same making her stomach twist into a knot. Back at the boutique. “Let's see ah perfect now where's that book oh right upstairs I'll get it later, besides it's not like you're going anywhere, giggle you look absolutely divine,” said Rarity as she adjusts the lettuce tuxedo with her magic keeping a keen eye on the mortified Incline as he looks around the room he found himself in, Jared ponies on shelves and in hamster habitats, with wheels? Only to notice his attire. “What did you mmm. mmm” said Incline cut off by salad dressing. "Oh hush I don't like it when my food talks back,” said Rarity looking down at her hoof work and silencing him with salad dressing. Incline was now no bigger than a pygmy mouse easily able to fit inside a spoon. Meanwhile with twilight. “No..no..no no, where is it!?” said Twilight asking no pony in particular as she paced around the room searching for something, the library was a mess as usual. "Here Twilight,” said spike finding the scroll she was looking for. "Thank you Spike?” thanked Twilight. spike letting go as to avoid an all too familiar cliche was twilight levitated the scroll to herself. "So what are you doing Twilight?” asked Spike as Twilight goes over the tome in question. "Celestia wants me to reverse engineer a very complicated spell” answered Twilight. Back with the crusaders. "Come on Sweetie just one more try,” said Apple Bloom encouragingly as she looked at the mess of apple related disaster around her, curious towards the possibility to shrink something keeping her interest in sweetie's chance abilities rather than angry at the mess. "I’ve already tried seventeen times I can't do it,” said Sweetie dejectedly as she frowns never really into the idea of shrinking diamond in the first place. 'i'll just hurt her why am I even trying why do I listen to her she's always the one who drags us into some crazy stunt' she thought as she sat and looked to see more apple muck everywhere. "Well just give it one more go” suggested Apple Bloom as she tried to encourage her friend setting another fruit down in front. 'she's getting close I can feel it' she thought eager to see the look on diamonds face when they towered over her shrunken form. "I just can't.” repeated sweetie head down. 'i just can't risk it i'll ask my sister about the book tomorrow' she thought, feeling a little insecure as she felt her horn buzz feeling fuzzy with the effort. "come on sweetie you've never given up on anything before, ” said Scootaloo. “yeah, why, start now?” finished A.B “I..i..i just don't want to end up hurting any pony” exclaimed Sweetie getting frustrated at her friend's persistence as she raised her voice. "Just- OK one more try!” said Sweetie agitatedly her friends pushing her buttons as she gathered her magic and tried again with little difference in the outcome... “...Is it gonna stop?” asked A.B as she watches the apple shrink out of existence. “Ugh.. see” groaned Sweetie giving up as she looked the other way embarrassed by her lack of ability. "Oh, come on you guys! that was better, this time, one more tr-no!” exclaimed Sweetie cutting her friends off and turning to face the other way. "Maybe Rarity can help?” asked Scootaloo gaining looks of shock and confusion from her two friends as she gave them, a plain face. " I know dash has a few things left to teach me but I can't just tell them what we do together it personal and it feels weird talking about it' she thought as she noticed the looks she received thinking back to the last crazy trust exercise she did with her idol. "Are ya kidding me ya just read the book how can ya suggest dat?” asked A.B dumbfoundedly as her friend seemed to disregard the implication true or otherwise... 'she crazy but that's just scootaloo she's always like that' she thought as she gave her friend a quizzical look. "You said it yourself Sweetie she's not a monster” reasoned Scootaloo trying to convince her friends as she looked to the disappointed filly. 'i wish I could tell them but i'll just tell rainbow dash once she picks me up tonight' she thought as she thought of a way she could help her friends. “Uh, she eats ponies” stated Sweetie flatly not believing it herself as she pawed the floor with her hoof. 'now that just sounds wrong why do I feel like this I know that's not true' she thought not sure what to make of the book as it made her uneasy. "Yeah but that's just an assumption we don't know that for sure" argued Scoots. As her friends just stared at her eyes laden and in frowny-faced annoyance. Meanwhile in Rarity's basement. “Mmm.mm,” said Rarity wiping the blood and dressing off her chin with a personally fashioned handkerchief. “Grrbrrgle- guess I'm still hungry,” she said getting up and grabbing a nearby jar. 'Mmm divine' she thought as she looked at the tiny pony hungerly. "Oh Carrot Top nothing goes better with salad than carrots right- giggle,” said Rarity moving back over to the table taking carrot top out and placing her on the plate and adding more salad, spinach. olives, cucumbers, and two more ponies. "You're a monster!" Yelled carrot top before Rarity's maw took her in and slushed her around before chewing and swallowing. Crunch-crunch hmm.mm "yum thank you, dear, I take that as a compliment" Said Rarity after swallowing. Back with twilight. “-boom- giggle well that hasn't happened to me in a long time are you OK Spike?" said Twilight after her magic failed for the second time but this time exploded. "Yeah… uh what are we trying to do exactly?” said Spike asking the question as he stayed at a safe distance. "I'm trying to help Celestia, one of her students at C.S.G.U managed to somehow turn the entire cafeteria into solid gold And Celestia thinks I’m the one to help figure out why and how, but there's no actual spell all I got are the students notes and descriptions of what she was doing when her magic flared out of pressure and anger,” explained Twilight as she went over her own notes crossing things off and circling others. “Oh,” said Spike as he thinks ‘no wonder it exploded the same thing happens every time she gets like that only she explodes rather than turning into gold’ thought Spike remembering her firey maned friend. Back with the crusaders. "It's getting late I should be heading home,” said Sweetie sheepishly as she looked outside to see the sun starting to set. 'i just hope the book has nothing to do with reality' she thoughts she made her way to the door stopping as she feels a pit in her stomach. "By Sweetie see you tomorrow," said Scootaloo and A.B. as they looked at each other noticing the nervousness in their friend's voice but not sure what to do. 'she's scared but I doubt its true ponies don't do that it probably just some fetish like with my sister and her pregnancy fetish I guess she just really wants a foal' she thought as she waved good-bye. "what's wrong ?" asked Bloom noticing Sweetie's hesitance taking a tentative step forward. "I...I...uh...could you walk with me I...I...I'm,” said Sweetie hesitantly as she stands by the open clubhouse door. 'why am I scared she'd never do anything like that it's just a book' she thought as she felt afraid wishing her friend could walk home with her. “Sure thing we’ll both come with ya,” said A.B coming up next to her and giving her bump on the shoulder as she tried to ease her friend’s worries. 'plus my sis can be forgiving she won't just ground me if i'm a bit late I just have to be honest and she'll forgive me' she thought as she walked over to her friend. "Yeah the CMC always stay together” added Scootaloo joining them as they head to Rarity's walking past sweetie with an assuring smile. 'i need to get Rainbow dash and tell her she has to know about this then she'll help me' she thought as she made it to the second ramp looking back up as her friend followed her. "Oomph,” said Sweetie as her saddlebag gets caught on the door causing her to trip. 'dumb bag' she thought as she moved to get up. "You OK Sweetie?” asked Apple Bloom helping her friend to her hooves as sweetie dusted herself off. 'that was rough but she stronger than that come on sweets I gotta get home myself to' she thought as she checked to see if her friend was ok. 'she's fine' she confirmed as she went to exit noticing her friend delay. "Yeah my bags just got caught on the door," said Sweetie picking her saddlebags up noticing the small tear. "My sister's gonna..mm,” said Sweetie cutting herself short not sure how her sister would punish her anymore. 'this is ridiculous pull yourself together' she thought berating herself as she noted her sister would just have to restitch her bags. "You're fine she won't uh. She won't punish ya over that, Come on Sweetie the sun's starting to go behind the hills if we don't go now I'm gonna be late,” said A.B cheering Sweetie up as much as she can. 'wow that book really got to her maybe I should... Nah she'll be fine she always pulls through' she thought as she encouraged her friend offering her support. "Come on guys you're gonna make me late and Dash is supposed to pick me up tonight for... not important I just don't wanna miss it let's just go,” said Scootaloo eagerly. elsewhere back with Twilight. “Come on almost there ha uh oh -boom,” said Twilight as she concentrates and sees the apple turn gold before exploding sending golden muck everywhere. “Darn it almost had it if it's not... What am I doing wrong then?" Exclaimed Twilight asking herself as she wipes the gold applesauce off her muzzle. Back with Rarity “oh my I’ve lost track of time! Sweetie should be home soon and I haven't started dinner yet!” exclaimed Rarity as she hurriedly closes and conceals the basement door and runs to the window. “Oh good she’s not here yet but she will be!” said Rarity rushing in to get started on dinner. Meanwhile “come on Scootaloo pretend it's a race or something we're gonna be late” exclaimed A.B as Scootaloo races through ponyVille as every pony already was or was on their way indoors as the streetlights come on in a crisscross pattern. "theirs the boutique we're gonna make it whoa oomph, Scoot!?" Exclaimed A.B after Scootaloo hits a rock sending them flying to land in Rarity's trash cans as Rarity herself was levitating them to the curb at a distance mind you the mare had an even more grotesque look as she let out a startled cry when three fillies come flying at her. “wah ha aaaah” let out the delicate mare avoiding the flying mounds of trash. “Oh my girls are you alright?” asked Rarity as she looked to see she was still clean seeing her sister wasn't as fortunate. 'oh dear looks like bath time ugh she smells like last weeks septic disaster' she thought as she set the trash bins down. “We're fine” answered Scootaloo popping her head out of the trash can tongue out in disgust as her friends moaned in response. "Well you might as well get cleaned up when you’ve hosed off come inside and use the guest shower,” said Rarity as she picks up their saddlebags “-thump- huh,” said Rarity picking up a filth covered book as she used her magic to clean it off ‘no Sweetie no oh why, I told you time and time again to watch where you stuck your muzzle oh Sweetie now.... I don't have a choice!’ thought Rarity as a single tear stained her cheek. Placing the book back in her sister's saddlebags she picks up the other bags and cleans as much off of them and her sister's as she can using her magic. Back at Twilights. “Um Twilight,” asked Spike as he watches twilight concentrate seemingly oblivious to his existence. "Yeah, Spike?" Answered Twilight half listening as she took notes. "it's dinner time should I start something?" Asked Spike. "Um, I, uh, dinner uh, I'm sorry what?" Asked Twilight to distracted by her work. "I said it's dinner time do you want me to make you something?" Repeated Spike "oh yeah I'm in need of a break anyway” answered Twilight getting up and heading into the kitchen. Back with Rarity "if and when you three are done in there I have dinner ready” said Rarity pacing thinking ‘why...how oh I should’ve been more careful how am i going to explain this to A.J and Rainbow Dash and the others we all have vorarephilia but they said they were off limits and I agreed so long as they agreed to stay away from Sweetie oh what am I- wait I know just what to do and how to do it it's perfect a whole new bonding experience!’ thought Rarity weighing her options. and getting a devilishly exciting idea. “Ready!” said Sweetie Belle as she and her friends came down the stairs looking refreshed with a small smile. 'at least I'll have them this is ridiculous i'm scared giggle just relax I'll ask her about the book tomorrow' she thought as she smelled dinner in the kitchen glad her friends would be spending the night. "Ah, girls good now I'll explain everything tomorrow so don't you two worry about A.J or dash being mad OK, dinners on the table come, and remember you two are guests so manners,” said Rarity ushering them to the table as Sweetie follows suit. "Thanks, Rarity we haven't had a sleepover at your house yet this is going to be fun,” said Scootaloo taking her spot at the table as A.B and Sweetie do the same. “Don't thank me, thank Sweetie she convinced me. And I expect you to be on your best behavior,” said Rarity levitating four plates of food out and onto the table in front of Sweetie herself and each guest. “we almost did but you had to cancel” finished A.B adjusting her seat as she remembered the detour to Fluttershy's a chill running down her spine a the thought of almost being turned to stone. “Well, I guess this pretty much makes up for it then, ” said Rarity grabbing three drinks and something else for herself. "Well, I hope this will be fun for you then,” finished Rarity after a moment of awkward silence as she's placing the drinks in front of them within respect to her devilish idea. "So how was your day Sweetie do anything special?” asked Rarity getting a nervous no not really from Sweetie. As she stuffs her mouth with food and drinks her spiked juice. “Well how about you two anything different happen today,” asked Rarity smiling as they take a drink of they're spiked juice. "Well then let's eat I for one am starving,” said Rarity hearing audible chokes from the three but pretending not to notice. "Oh when you're done maybe we can play my favorite sleepover game!” said Rarity excited. “and what's that?” asked Sweetie trying her best not to look nervous ‘she's your sister Sweetie mare up she'd never do anything like what was in that book’ thought Sweetie as she rubbed her foreleg with her forehoof. As her friends began to yawn droopy-eyed. "Why, War Of The Pillows of course,” said Rarity smiling as she noticed the drugs taking effect. 'sorry darling but we can have our own little sleep over latter' she thought as her sister addressed her smiling sweetly as her sister fidgeted with her hoof. “Oh OK, hey Rarity can I be done I don't feel like eating any more in fact, I'm full, ” lied Sweetie as her sister gives her a questioning look. "Sure, in fact, I think we’ll have to play the game another time your friend's look as if they might pass out,” said Rarity as she and Sweetie looked over. as Scootaloo looks at Sweetie. “Run,” was all she got out before she and Bloom went face first into their plates. “Sis?” squeaked Sweetie looking wide-eyed at her sister. “I knew it was only a matter of time darling I'm so sorry,” said Rarity before Sweetie looks at her drink and as she loses consciousness she asks “why?”-cause I love you too much” answered Rarity as she moves the plate so her sister doesn't get messy. “And I ask myself that all the time darling” finished Rarity as she levitates the now unconscious CMC to the basement. Meanwhile in a jar in the basement sits Octavia “oh how could I have been so foolish” said Octavia scorning herself as she hears the door creak open. ‘Please just pick me already it's been two months since I’ve seen the sun please just get it over with’ she thought as she hears hoof steps and instantly rushes to look out of her glass prison ‘you monster’ she thought upon seeing her captors latest victims. “Oh Sweetie..no take me instead!” yelled Octavia as she pounds on the glass. “m mg ng nhh ah ng no.n..no” finished Octavia crying as she slumps to the bottom and sobs. “Oh darling I wish there was another way I really do” said Rarity as she puts shackles on her sister's hooves and latches the chain to the anchor embedded in the concrete floor "there you go darling nice and secure” said Rarity as she puts her sister in a chair while she uses her magic to shackle Scootaloo and Apple Bloom to the wall. "Now let's see ratted out no, oh yes so you’ve been discovered... hmm la de da ah sister's yes hmm. Oh, this is perfect page one hundred and forty initiations” said Rarity aloud as she reads the book index. “Oh it's perfect!” exclaimed Rarity causing Sweetie to stir. “Uh..mm...Rarity?” asked Sweetie eyes laden by the drug her sister had given her feeling groggy. "Oh you're awake good are you hungry?” asked Rarity walking over to the shelves of jarred ponies. "Yeah an..and my heads spinning..and I'm? …..starving!” exclaimed Sweetie as her sight swims and her mind clouds. But wakes up as much as the drug would allow. “Why-why she's your sister you monster she doesn't even have her cutie mark yet!” exclaimed Octavia as she watches the events unfold her captor seeming to suddenly notice her. “Oh, Octavia?” called Rarity as she walked over to a shelf of jars one in particular. “What what do you want you monster?” asked Octavia enraged as she saw the white mare canter over to look into her prison. "Oh, just a snack for my darling Sweetie Belle she's just starving” answered Rarity as she opened the jar and pulled the earth pony out. "you...you fiend you beast...you- oh be quiet my Sweetie needs her nutrition” finished Rarity silencing her with a spell as she levitates her out along with several others and puts them in a bowl of fruits. Back with Twilight. “Spike, have you seen jukebox I'm craving some musician?” asked Twilight going through her collection of jars. looking back at the swirling portal of a door that led back to the library. "Uh, no have you tried the j’s?” asked Spike backing out of the secret magic pocket room she made three years ago. “I'm in the js...Spike!” exclaimed Twilight holding her tongue as she found something an angry look crossing her face... "Yes, Twilight?” answered Spike nervously as he backed up further looking around. "Come here," said twilight holding a jar labeled jukebox with a clawed off lid as she looked at her shifty-eyed assistant. "I'm sorry! I...i..ahh” said, Spike, as he's magiced face to muzzle with her "heh heh, ” said Spike with a nervous chuckle. back with the crusaders. “Uh..mmmn Scootaloo?” mumbled A.B led mouthed as she shifted feeling tight metallic bracelets hold her in place. "uh...ghn.. mmm uh” replied Scootaloo. "Where are ng- scoots wake up!” said Bloom in a hushed tone noticing her blurry surroundings the drug wearing off. "What wauh!" gasped Scootaloo "where's?- here you are, Sweetie, you must have been hungry this is the there'd batch” said Rarity cutting Scootaloo off answering her question as she looks to see Sweetie her four hooves shackled together sitting in a chair and being hoof fed. Ponies!. "au?" gasped Apple Bloom. As she sees Sweetie eating what appeared to be Twist?!. "Sweetie, darling we better stop we still have dessert,” said Rarity as she levitates the last pony into her sister's agape maw her sister's eyes looking around drearily. “OK,” said Sweetie meekly as she swallows the live squirming pony. "Where's ss..?” asked Sweetie drawing a dark smile from Rarity "Scoo. sc. appl Apple Bloom Scootaloo!” exclaimed Sweetie as she starts fighting the drug remembering what happened. “Mm, mg hm..ng mg mm uh what did you...WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY FRIENDS!” yelled Sweetie as she falls out of the chair and wriths trying to get free. "Oh, well I was hoping we could eat them together but it would seem we need to move on to stage two -giggle-,” said Rarity. And Sweetie instantly stops struggling, watching as her younger sister went rigid. "What I. I. I ate- not yet but soon, soon you and I can spend more time together than ever before all you have to do is pass an initiation test!” explained Rarity excitedly as she watched the blank stare her sister had. “Wh..what.. a. test, ” said Sweetie in a confused haze. “yes darling an initiation test,” said Rarity flipping a switch with her magic and revealing her friend's. “Appl. Scoot. girls!?.sniffle” said Sweetie sniffling as she looked there way seeing the shackles that held them to the wall. 'this has to be a nightmare' she thought scared. "Sweetie, it's OK ya didn’t eat us we're fine,” said Apple Bloom a nervous smile crossing her face seeing the look on her friends face. "OK. Sweetie in this test all you have to eat them and you pass” explained Rarity giddy as she licked her lips feeling hungry herself. "Whathh...what!” squeaked Sweetie as she starts to sob. 'eat them but that means... noo' she thought the drugs giving her a headache. "Either that or I eat you and them, I can't have you three going around telling every pony my secret. You know what they’ll do, don't you?” said Rarity as Sweetie stared straight through her. 'Mmm marshmallow... no oh please sweetie just eat them' thought rarity fighting with herself on how to handle the situation feeling hungry as she felt herself drooling at the thought of having three fillies squirming in her belly "Oh come now it's not as bad as what Fluttershy would do if she so much as thought you knew, she eats foals you know. It took a lot of silent death threats and glares to be sure I could trust her with you” said Rarity which at this point Sweetie was crying her eyes out. 'poor dear you really should have minded your own business I do hope I won't have to eat you' she thought she would enjoy the endeavor but she couldn't risk losing her sister in such a manner as she fought with her cursed impulses. “It's my fault I'm sorry I should...shoul- should’ve kept your muzzle where it belonged” chastised Rarity as Sweetie crumbles to the floor. she sobs so hard that she coughs up Twist. “?twis. s. twist! I......I'm wha how..” said Sweetie cut off dreading what she'd done ‘did I..did she...have I been eating ponies!?’ thought Sweetie panicking as twist looked at her petrified by fear before she's picked up via levitation looking at her sister in fear as she realized where her school freind had just been. "giggle eh ha hmm oh well open wide Sweetie,” said Rarity as she levitates Twist over to Sweetie as Sweetie backs away from her. "Come now Sweetie do you honestly think she's the only one?” asked Rarity snidely as Sweetie reaches the end of her chain stumbling over the there'd basement step. 'relax darling just eat her so we can be together' thought rarity feeling twisted up as she watched her sister cower hoping the snack in her magic would help sate her hunger towards her sister's marshmallow form. "You're making me hangry Sweetie do you know what hangry means?” asked Rarity aggravated as her stomach growled. "Angry and...ng...hungry?” answered Sweetie inching away as her sister licked her lips. "That's right darling angry and-mm. slurp. gulp-hungry” said Rarity as she presses Twist against her lips before slurping and swallowing her. 'Mmm like peppermint sticks oh come now darling you can't be this scared you know I won't hurt you gurgle... just eat her you have magic make it painless.. argh and it did nothing oh I hope I can hold out long enough to get her on board if not in my belly' she thought torn between herself as she felt the urge to swallow her sister whole and have her friend's as dessert she thought of anything she could use to help convince her sister to join her less sh join the churning soup in her stomach first. “Oh well I thought you and I were sisters,” said Rarity as she charges her horn. "-Sis?- I'm sorry darling” said Rarity cutting her off as she levitated her up. 'don't worry darling once your a nice soupy goo I'll absorb you then we can spend the rest of our lives together. no oh I really don't want to but you leave me without much choice' she thought as she licked her lips her magic washing down her throat as she swallowed air casting a spell on her sister her mouth open wide as she listened. “uh. hmm...r...ra...RARITY WAIT PLEASE!” yelled Sweetie shakily as she looked down her sister's throat saliva sparkling like gemstones squirming as she frantically tried to escape... “Yes” answered Rarity dispelling the spells as she allows her sister moment feeling her throat pulse with the spells magic her stomach churning in anticipation. 'well she went rather quickly Mmm divine for a filly as plump as her' she thought, contemplating her snacks aftertaste as she felt her stomach reduce the filly to raw nutrients sympathizing her sister's undying fate as a part of her being. 'i wonder how warm her soul is?' she pondered as she listened to her sister stammer out. "Can...c.c.can...can we talk first?!” exclaimed Sweetie squeaking breathing heavy as her sister sets her down. 'think think think what's a good reason to not eat me why's she doing this, I thought she loved me!' her mind screamed at her unable to give herself answers stammering as her sister addresses her yammering the first thing that came to mind “I suppose it wouldn't hurt” pondered Rarity as she looked at her fear stricken sisters face frowning. 'Oh, hush darling it won't hurt just a tingly feeling as you melt into me' she thought, trying to reason with herself as she knew she wouldn't be holding her sister aside from feeling her warmth within herself. “I...uh..mm..when did all this start?” asked Sweetie hurrying to come up with as many questions as she can too by time. 'oh, no sweet Celestia she's going to eat me!' she contemplated trying to stay calm as she felt like falling apart. rarity listened as she responded calmly thinking back to when she had found herself entrapped in the mess she tried to keep her sister safe from sense. “Well after the wedding Twilight and Celestia pulled me aside apparently I had eaten some sort of vore cake without knowing, I'd rather not go into detail. later I started to get strange cravings every pony I looked at even you darling i... I had the urge to..to.to eat you!" she explained the memory making her think of all the ponies she'd eat to avoid the meal in front of her as she continued. "having had enough of that I went to see Twilight it was apparently around her lunch or was it snake time, anyway I wasn't thinking I had this craving on my mind and I walked in on her meal. at first I wanted to scream seeing her laid-back gorging herself with her own kind earth unicorn and Pegasus alike at first we just stared at each other but then she offered me one... and I accepted, it was the most mixed disgust-joy flavor-fully disturbing experience I’ve ever had... and I've been doing it ever since, a few days later and she gave me this book the same one you stuck your muzzle oh Sweetie why? I don't want to do this but Celesta's book it has rules and- Celesta's rules are law finished Sweetie. "yes Sweetie that's right I really wish there was another way" said Rarity sighing. 'Oh, darling as good as your going to be you really should have been more careful this is your own fault' she thought as she tried to justify her actions feeling her gut churn as the miniature mush that was left vanished into her intestines enjoying the pleasing sensations as she hated herself for it. "Does it hurt when...uh..you eat them?” asked Sweetie surprising herself at how calm she was. 'just talk to she's your sister why'd she want to eat you?' she thought forcing herself to stay calm. “Here look up page thirty-two,” said Rarity giving her the book. Upon reading Sweetie finds she hears Celestia herself speaking to her in her words the book goes over everything answering almost every question. Except one why didn't her sister ever stop. "Uhm...Rarity?” asked Sweetie nervously. "yes, darling?” answered Rarity as she looks at her tear-drenched, dry-eyed sister. 'Oh, darling i'm so sorry' she though pained as she could almost feel the twisting storm of feelings behind her sister's eye's "Why? ..ha... have you ever thought about stopping?” asked Sweetie getting a wince from her sister as she levitates her. "Mm, ng.aw..mmm" stammered Sweetie scared at first but hugging her sister the moment she was close. "Well, the thing is...Sweetie mm..." -began rarity posing as her face contorted into a wince before turning cold and hardened- "we're done here now what is it going to be!?” Said Rarity doing a complete one-eighty pulling Sweetie out of the hug and levitating her to face her muzzle to muzzle. "I..i..i..i I need mm... mm ...more time they're mmmm ng my friends!” exclaimed Sweetie sobbing taken back by her sister flip back as she squirmed freaking out before forcing herself to stay calm. "No Swee...Sweetie, please don't make this hard on me, on you, on us,” said Rarity seeing her sister's teary signature puppy eyes and pouty lip face melting a little in the process. "Oh...mm OK here you decide how you want them I'll give you five minutes no more OK/” gave in Rarity levitating the book to her. 'then I can hold you as I rub you're squirming belly giggle my sweet little morsel' she thought a darker pleasure crossing her mind. 'no shut up get out of my head I don't have to oh who am I fooling if I don't then I have to eat them all' she thought fighting with herself as a side of her tries to twist her sense of morals. "Mm.mm ng..the..thank..yu..you sis!” exclaimed Sweetie sobbing as she grabs the book and hugs her sister. " You know Sweetie I've been looking for a way out for a whole year now maybe you and I can find one together,” said Rarity as she shed a few hard and hot tears herself. "What do you think they're talking about over there?” asked Scootaloo wriggling more to get comfortable now rather than struggling like before as she watched her friend talking with her sister not sure what to make of it. why's she hugging her she... wasn't she about to eat her?' she contemplated confused. “Whaddaya think their talkin bout scoots er sis is gonna make er eat us!” exclaimed Apple Bloom falling more and more back on her accent as she looked to her imprisoned friend feeling hopeless, “I...well... I don't care I’d offer my life for hers any day!” exclaimed Scootaloo frustrated and defeatedly. as her wings flailed helplessly at her sides. “Me too, hmm ng ah hmm” agreed Apple Bloom as they both start sobbing. "Shhh mm, ng mg they're coming, be strong!” exclaimed Scootaloo whispering As she sees Sweetie and her sister approaching. "Yeah mg mm, ng” agreed Apple Bloom "don't let er have da joy of our pain!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom in a hushed tone. As she sucks up her tears as best as she could. Scootaloo already having done so. "Are you ready darling have you made your choice?” asked Rarity walking over to follow her sister as she notices her walking toward her friend's. "Mm..ng sniffle yeah” answered Sweetie sobbing and sniffling as she steels herself for her choice and goes over what her sister said ‘you know Sweetie I’ve been looking for a way out for a year now maybe you and I can find one together, yeah sis maybe, together?’ thought Sweetie solemnly as she looks up at her friend's they're long tear-ridden faces making her cringe. "It's OK Sweets... no matter what happens we're still your friend's,” said Scootaloo confidently as her friend approached her looking angrily at rarity who seemed to show little concern for them. "Yeah cutie mark crusaders forever!” cheered Apple Bloom a frowned joy on her tired and tearful face as she saw sweetie carrying the book making her nervous as what was to happen. 'she wouldn't, would she?' she thought as her fear is confirmed eyes going wide as she realized what she feared was happening now wishing she had more time to think of an escape plan. "Uh.. umm...Rarity can you um help me learn the spell on page one o five ..uh. please?” asked Sweetie trying to hold strong as hot dry tears burned her face looking away from her friends as her gut twisted with what she knew she had to do. "Sure darling” answered Rarity levitating an apple out of a nearby basket and setting it on the table. "I could do it for you” offered Rarity now standing next to Sweetie as she felt the spell wash over her stomach feeling the loosening flesh warm up and moisten. "No! ...no, i..i.i want to learn it myself” denied Sweetie quickly adjusting her tone not wanting to upset her sister knowing she wasn't in any position to draw an argument. ”that's the Sweetie I grew up with, independent,” said Rarity in a proud tone as she rubbed her sisters should like she was going to enter a championship arena offering her support. “now rather than concentrating on the fruit itself concentrate on the energy inside it and think of the size you want it” instructed Rarity a small smile at actually spending some time teaching her sister some magic. “K,” said Sweetie as she focused her magic and casts the spell - squelches- sigh. she sighed as she failed determined to do it she looks at her sister shyly. 'come on if I can't do this then everything's for anything!' she thought, yelling at herself knowing the spell was her only hope left. "Almost darling just a little deeper now close your eyes and focus on the energy you feel when you touch the apple with your magic” Rarity instructed further smiling sweetly at her sister as she looked at her sisters would be meals. 'what am I, huh oh yes I can leave there remains in the woods near fluttershy's oh come on rarity you sick little bastard' she thought berating herself at the thought. “mm.hg, ” said Sweetie a short struggle. eyes closed in concentration as she felt the object change " that's it, look, Sweetie, you did it!" Exclaimed Rarity excitedly seeing her sister complete the spell. “I did it I did it I..ii.. yeah” exclaimed Sweetie her joy zapped from her the moment she looked up at her friend's sad smiles. 'no I no I don't want to... but you have to it's the only way then go get twilight so she can help' she thought, screaming internally "It's OK Sweets we love ya either way, ”said Bloom choking back her tears as she watched her friends success sealing her fate. "Yea, Sweetie me too either way” agreed, Scoots as her face reddens looking at rarity with resentment. “I want to. one more.. to be- sure darling take all the practice you need” said Rarity cutting her off and bringing out an entire basket of more fruits. And placing them in front of Sweetie. 'my darling first true spell' she thought happily as she let her sister practice helping her get the spell down. 'Mmm i wish I could do more for the two of you but I have priorities to keep my sister comes first you will do nicely for protein at least you can fill something of a purpose in filling her up' she thought as her sister shrunk several fruits at once seeming to have it down. "good job Sweetie that's five in a row I think you're ready darling” said Rarity proudly as she cast a spell on her sister sighing as she didn't seem to notice. "Yeeaah sigh ready uh um...girls can you..mm close your eyes... mmn ng please no matter what please don't open mm ng them?” asked Sweetie sobbing her mustered resolve slipping her. 'i need to do it quickly' she thought as she readied her magic. "You got it Sweetie remember either way!” exclaimed Scootaloo as she gave a final glare to the white mare sticking out her tongue. "yeah once a crusader always a- crusader!” finished Sweetie cutting her bowed friend off as she charges her horn and they close their eyes. sweetie looked her friend's over and seeing they had closed their eyes as she looked to her sister and smiled sheepishly feeling like a nervous wreck. “Mm. hg,” she groaned as she shrinks her two best friends and as she's levitating them over her sister's words ring through her head once more. "Um...I love you Rarity...ng. m so much..ng,” said Sweetie sobbing. as she wrapped her magic around the ones she loved. feeling dizzy as the drug made it harder to do much of anything in full strength. "Once a crusader always a"--> "crusader" --> 'you bet you're lucky horseshoes, Sweetie, we’ll always be friend's and don't you forget it!’ finished Apple Bloom internally as she breaks her promise and opens her eyes for a peek. “Uh,” said Apple Bloom shocked at what she sees. " I love you rarity mn sniffle" Sweetie sniffles holding her miniature sister in her hooves smiles in half relief and half agony. "I love you too Sweetie more than you may ever know,” said Rarity as her sister opens her maw-mm.ng..mm.gulp.ng mm ah mg ng.” sobbed Sweetie as she hooves her sister in, not wanting to chew, her throat swelling as she forces herself to relax and forcefully swallows her. “Sweetie!” exclaimed Apple Bloom causing Scootaloo to open her eyes as well.'she just ate her she just oh my Celestia she actually...' she thought as her mind nearly breaks "What is it over ?” asked Scootaloo as she too realizes what's happened. "Sweetie you just ..uh Sweetie oh no Apple Bloom the face” exclaimed Scootaloo knowing the brain-dead Sweetie look all too well as Sweetie levitated her closer to her, maw agape. "No SWEETIE BELLE SNAP OUT OF IT WAKE UP! It's not working!" exclaimed Bloom as she and Scoots dangle above their friend's mouth her pearly white teeth shining a smile of death. “We have no choice~ ear rape!” shouted Bloom as her friend nods in agreement. "SWEETIE BELLE SCREEEAAAaM!!!!. Ear raped Scoots and Bloom. the blood-curdling scream snapping their friend out of her trance-like state a little too late. "ahhgmn!” exclaimed Sweetie accidentally closing her maw on Scoots. 'huh ooh Mmm no not food huh why do you taste like an orange?' she though stunned before realizing she intended to swallow holding herself. "SWEETIE DON'T SWALLOW JUST OPEN YOUR MOUTH YA GOT SCOOTS IN THERE! "Shouted Apple Bloom wide-eyed. Sweetie froze a tangy orange taste in her mouth replacing the marshmallow aftertaste of her sister as she remembers the conversation with her. 'later I started to get strange cravings every pony I looked at even you darling I...I had the urge to..to.to eat you!’| ‘have you ever thought about stopping?” Well, the thing is...Sweetie mm...we're done here now what is it going to be!?' thought back Sweetie as she fought the urge to swallow. 'she tastes like MMm no stop I don't want to'' she fought herself as she found her friends flavor to make it difficult feeling her friend wriggling in her mouth. "SWEETIE!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom snapping her out of her reverie. “Mmm?’- ‘no I won't be like her!’ thought Sweetie “mmm..ng pluh” spat Sweetie as she forces herself to spit her friend out of her mouth and into her levitation spell. "Geez Sweetie how long did you plan on keeping me in there?” asked Scootaloo as she shakes within the levitation field. “Hey watch it Scoots!” shouts Apple Bloom as she's sprayed by slime. "yeck guh now I need a bath oh sweetie it’s ok you didn't eat use, uh oh" she finished before remembering the white mare that she watch inter her friends body the large lump descending her friends throat still fresh on her mind as she shivered. "uh Sweetie are you OK?” asked Scoots noticing Sweetie's blank stare her pupils small. OK! OK I just had to fight myself so I didn't eat you OK I'm not .. I'm the exact opposite of OK I'm..mortified. Psychotic sick in the head a freak….I'm... I'm a monster!!’ screamed Sweetie internally. sixty two hours later"A.J?" Asked Apple Bloom not sure about what her sister had told her, she hadn't slept much since yesterday and minutes felt like hours 'how long till I can see, oh who am aah kidding they're probably gone, eaten, dead !and it's my fault!' Thought Apple bloom dreading what was an had happened to her friends. "Its just a meeting relax sugar cube, ..." soothed A.J as she guided her sister through the maze of tunnels. 'She's barely slept every ten freaking minutes she'd wake up screaming' thought a.j thinking back, they'd left the council at four am but no matter what she tried her sister couldn't sleep more than a fifth an hour at a time and that was Saturday, now it was Monday sundown it had been over forty-two hours since the incident. 'Ugh rarity when sweetie's out, mngh why'd ah make that stupid promise its a good thing it's only against fatal vore mmng when ah get my hooves on ya yer gonna wish it was fatal!' Mentally fumed a.j as she approached her destination. "Ya know sweetie n scoots'll be there," said a.j hoping to lift her sister's heavy spirit. "Really you mean their OK!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom Brightening up at the mention of her friends. "Yes, in a way but not the way ah know yer thinking," said a.j seeing the confusion on her sister's blindfolded face she continues "their alive but its complicated anyway we're here" finished a.j as she stop's her sister far enough so the door wouldn't hit her. " meanwhile just inside rarity listens to her cyan friends story "So> she literary told you she wanted you to..." Started, Rarity not sure how to finish the sentence as she sat on one of her custom ground Pillow's and looks at her friends distended gut. "Yeah.." -R.D posed- "...Rarity I'm worried about her health the way she looked at me when she said it, it wasn't right!" Said R.D as she looked at her current special package said package giving A short wriggling. "I'm sure the fact that she can talk to them about it now rather than holding it all in will help darling," assured rarity having her own distended gut. "So what ritual did you do?" Asked R.D as she looked at a disheveled unicorn. But before she could say anything there was a knock on the westerly door. Looking at each other they call out their code call. "What's tastier than tekiela?" Called R.D and rarity in unison. "Cider Cocktails!" Came the response hearing the current passphrase rarity uses her magic to unlatch the door. a moment earlier just outside the door. "It's gonna be fine, Rarity and R.D wouldn't do anything that could hurt them but no matter what same rule as the council ya promise?" said A.J reminding her sister of the undergrounds golden rule asking her sister that she promise to follow the rule as she knocked on the door. "Only if you pinkie promise, to not 'gulp' eat me or hurt my friend's," said Apple Bloom asking for assurance as she heard somepony respond from the other side of the door. "Cyder cocktail!" Said A.J responding to the call as she brings her sister in for a close nuzzling before answering her. "cross my heart hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye" finished A.J doing said motions. Before guiding her sister in. "Darling does she really need that filthy thing?" Questioned rarity noticing her sisters best friend in what to her was the most ghastly looking jet black blindfold as A.J guided the youth over. "Yes it is, so long as she's down here undergrounds golden rule remember," responded A.J in an irate tone reminding her friend of the reason for the blindfold as well as the calling of the meeting particularly the latter. As she placed one of her sister's hooves on a table in the center of the small room with four magic infused doors one at each point of the compass. "Um darling you seem stressed," said rarity trying to lighten the mood knowing full well the reason giving a nervous smile as her irritated friend started towards her. "A.J I kno.." Started R.D not sure what to say and gaining a death glare from her friend cuts herself short watching as an infuriated A.J made her way to a nervous wreck of a unicorn. "Ya'll think, this is what's keeping ya safe...' Started a.j through her teeth poking rarity in the gut. '..no no, oh rarity ya couldn't be more wrong...' She said in a softer tone as she brings the petrified unicorns, chin up. '..look me in the eye when I'm talkin ta ya!...' Said a.j now looking into the eyes of the one responsible for her sister's position. '...oh no its because I promised yer sis I wouldn't, that 'd show ya mercy..." Finished A.J giving her friends package another poke for emphasis. "A.J you're scaring Apple Bloom," said R.D noticing a familiar bow sticking out from under a table. "I'm warning ya! huh?" Said a.j hearing the mention of her sister she turns to see a familiar and shivering filly. "Sigh bloom are ya OK?" Asked A.J as she made her way over to her Distressed sister. "Where's sweetie and scootaloo ya said they'd be here?" Questioned A.B quivering as she holds onto one of the tables legs like it was going to disappear. "And I wasn't lying and ain't lying now either sugar cube if and when ya want to come out ah'll guide ya to em" assured A.J as she stopped next to the table leg her sister was holding. "So Whatcha wanna do?" she asked. "Ah wanna see my friends," Said a shivering and nervous filly. "Oh Bloom ah assure ya their fine but remember how I said that their alive just not in the way you're thinking, now I can't tell ya how, yer gonna have ta ask their sister's sugar cube promise me ya won't freak, ah know what yer gonna think; but it ain't like that now I'll guide you to them when yer ready," soothed A.J seeing her sister stretch her hoof out blindly she puts her own hoof where her sister could find it "ah assure ya their fine now come I'll take ya to em" said A.J as she guided her sister over. 'What could be different then what I'm thinking if their alive then what?' Puzzled Apple Bloom as she took her sisters hoof and came out from under the table. Now guided by her older sibling she makes her way to where she assumed her friends would be. "Alright take two more steps and you'll find sweetie," said A.J as she let go of her sister and watched as A.B bumped into rarity. "Uh, sweetie?" Questioned Apple Bloom as she bumped into what she assumed was her friend but lodger then she remembered. "Not exactly darling but you're getting hotter," said Rarity as she put a hoof on the youth's shoulder the action getting a small wince. 'If this is rarity then where's sweetie?' Thought Apple Bloom as she blindly put a hoof on her friend's sister. "Your there darling," said Rarity as Apple Bloom's hoof brushed the bulge that held and protected her sister. 'But she said she was alive ah don't...huh?' Thought Apple Bloom as she felt the fury bulge that she realized held her friend as a wriggling broke her train of thoughts. 'Ah she, she ate her I'll rrhh' contemplated Apple Bloom. "Rrgh why, why'd ya eat 'er!" Yelled Apple Bloom as she tackles Her friend's sister. "Why?!" She yelled as she began strangling Rarity. "Scgh let.cgh me explain chhk" strained rarity as a small hoof is jammed in her jugular. "Why she was yer, Sis... My best friend! why'd ya eat er?!" Yells Apple Bloom shaking rarity lake a rag doll the unicorns head occasionally hitting the floor. "I did..dint.. Ea.a.eat her.ererer!" tried rarity as her head felt like it was going to fly off. "Why!... wait, what? " Shouted Apple Bloom as she stops shaking the brains out of rarity. "No stop apple bloom you're hurting us she didn't eat me!" Yelled sweetie. "Ahh!" Gasped Apple bloom startled as her friend yells at her dumbstruck as the voice comes from rarity's lips. "Get off!" Groaned sweetie. "Uhh... Swe.sweatie?!" Questioned Bloom as she's shoved off. "Sigh its complicated hmm just listen in short its some weird ritual can you promise me you won't do that again you see if she gets hurt I get hurt we're linked or something like that nmgh I'm getting a headache just listing to her please I'm fine don't worry" Explained sweetie taking advantage of her sycho telekinetic link. Albeit getting a headache as a result. "Uh??..OK?" Said, Apple Bloom, as she tried to make sense of what happened. "Uhng my head..." moaned rarity rubbing her head as it pounded. "Uh um, Rarity... WHAT th hay did ya do ta sweetie?!" Questioned Apple Bloom startling the mare. "Huh whah..oh hey I blacked out there for a minute, huh oh sorry the boutiques closed" droned Rarity vaguely remembering two minutes earlier. "Rarity!" Shouted Bloom getting Rarity's attention. "Whah Appl..? Apple Bloom! Please, I didn't eat her I swear!" Said Rarity coming back to reality. "Then why's she in yer stomach!" Shouted Apple Bloom getting close and pointing a hoof at where she knew her friend was. "She's not in my stomach, I didn't eat her," said rarity emphasizing the later. "But then why's your ng..." Started Bloom realizing where her friend was. "I'm gonna be sick" she finished turning her head and gagging as she remembers what she'd read from the book and why she threw up at the clubhouse. "I can assure you she's perfectly safe after all it's completely natural" stated rarity as Apple Bloom passes out from shock. some time later. "Come on A.J she's fainted three times already and thrown up" stated R.D as she looks over at the disheveled filly in a sisterly embrace. "Not to mention the fact she's been up all night plus yesterday night which is about thirty-seven hours minis Friday" continued rarity seeing the sleeping ball of fur in a warm embrace. "I know but every time she falls asleep she has nightmares!" Said A.J frustratedly eyeing rarity darkly. "And every time ah try an put er dawn she holds tighter at me before she starts squirming and fighting begging that...sigh," said A.J ending with a sigh as her sister jumps straight into the latter. "Ah nono pleas A.J no don't ahhh mn mn ng ahah-" began Applebloom as she started fighting and sobbing " -Shh shh it's OK your safe everything's gonna be fine," cooed A.J trying to calm her sister down. "Sis wh whah why can't ah see?" Asked Applebloom giving an occasional struggle. "Couse, it's dark out but everything's fine ah'm here ya just had a bad dream it's late ya can sleep with me if that'll help?" Soothed A.J Deciding to leave out the more traumatizing details. "Mm-hmm" Murmurers Applebloom as her sister brings her over to a pile of pillows. "Sniffle a.a. A.J?" Questioned Applebloom as she's lead to what she hoped was her sister's room. "Yeah?" Answered A.j as she lays down with her sister and brings her close. "...ah keep having the same nightmare don't ah?" Asked Applebloom getting as tightly embedded in her sister's embrace as she could. "Uh huh and complaining in her sleep begged ah don't eat ya or hurt scootaloo n sweetie ta stay back why em ah doing this. So tell me how much of it do ya believe?" Responded A.J nuzzling her sister. "Ah don't know ah know ya wouldn't but every time ah wake up it's the same cycle of questions n answers just phrased differently then it's the same nightmare!?" Said Applebloom shivering. Not sure of dream from reality. "Huh and have ya thought bout asking a different question?" Tried A.J giving Rarity a hurt and angered look. ".........no..ah ah just don't know what's real anymore" came Apple Bloom's tired response. "sounds ta me like yer stuck in a nightmare cycle," said A.J not sure where she was going. "What's a nightmare cycle?" Questioned Applebloom yawning. "It's exactly like it sounds a cycle of waking from a nightmare only to fall back into it too tired ta stay awake long enough to tell the difference" came A.J trying to explain what she thought was happening. "But how do ah tell them apart?" Asked applebloom letting out another yawn. "Because of this...ow," told A.J as she pinched her sister's shoulder electing a yelp. "hay that hurt!...physically and? ah...? You can't feel that in dream's!?" Complained Applebloom as she realized she was in fact awake. "Exactly' that's just one way ya can test it by trying to touch things and ah'll help" assured a.j nuzzling her sister. "Really...but what's the other way?" Said applebloom with a brief smile. "Ya know ya tend ta move when yer sleeping," told a.j pulling her sister closer. "Ah, sometimes wake up at the bottom of the bed but why?" Responded applebloom not sure how it would help. "Ya know when yer having a nightmare and ya can't move no matter whatcha try?" Asked A.J thinking of how she was going to make her idea work. "Yeah like my hooves been glued to the ground or I've ah ah been ng shackled" answers applebloom ending with a whimper. "Shh easy yer fine an yeah that can happen when yer tangled in yer sheets n the like so ah'm gonna help by keeping those kinda things from happening an when yer squirming ah'll let ya know everything's fine" explained a.j encouragingly. "But how-' Shh yer fine and ah'm right next ta ya whenever ah see ya struggling ah'll help" shushed A.j as her sister droned on before nodding in and out of sleep. "Good night little sis... "Good night yawn mngnmmn," said A.J her sister giving a tired yawning murmur as she drowned off to sleep. A few moments later "Are you sure about this?" Questioned rarity as she helps R.D rearrange the furnishings moving the tables, cushions, and the like in accordance with the idea. "Yeah, it helps me and Scoots" answered R.D as she moves the other end of the table into position. "Hmm, and you're sure an ed-glue made of a couch, two table's some sheet's and a boatload of cushions is going to help?" Asked rarity tying the last sheet corner to the left table's outer leg. "Well it helped scootaloo sleep the first night and I'm thinking you know full well what you put her through*," said R.D as she watched rarity levitate the final cushions against the inner wall of the tables. "It's not like I had many choices, she stuck her muzzle in it," said Rarity with a harrumph. "You could have taken her to twilight's have the memory wiped," said R.D suggesting what she could have done. "I WASN'T THINKING, I...I couldn't bear losing her let alone her memories! I just thought that if i... We-maybe, well you know how it feels to avoid the ones you care for most, I I just thought, I don't know, now I just feel worse" said rarity vehemently before quieting down remembering the reasons for the fort. "I. I knew it was just a matter of time' I just wasn't ready and I lost it, it was like I'd gone ferial like an animal" finished rarity solemnly as she sat in front of the fort. "I know, when squirt found out I tried to explain, but I couldn't get through to her, she caught me on the out skirt's of town near flutters, if I had just been patient and waited till I got home; but I hadn't felt hunger like that I was just about done when I noticed her the look still gives me nightmare's" started R.D telling rarity she wasn't alone. "And you lost it." Said rarity looking dawn. "No I let go, my whole world came down she tried to say something; but she turned and ran then it hit me not just did I lose my whole world she was my world and I wasn't just gonna watch her, let her leave nor could I she probably wouldn't but I couldn't take the risk I caught up to her I knocked her out grabbed her looped back grabbed what was left and went home, I made the cloud in a spare room hard to the point if you threw a vase at it, it shattered." Told R.D as rarity just listened in contemplation "I sealed us in an waited for her to wake up hunger was a nightmare I fought for what felt like forever when she woke up she just wouldn't listen I'd go to a corner she'd go to the other. I finally got close enough to grab her, I just held her let her struggle, cry and beat on me. tell she gave up we just sat there, but I wasn't there mentally" said R.D looking down as she continued her story devoid of any emotions. "when I came around enough I heard her ask me to say it wasn't true that she'd had a nightmare. When I didn't say anything she just sat there crying. When I finally had the nerve to talk all I could say was sorry. She'd go to say something but shy away from it, I couldn't stand her being that way I hated myself all could manage was short murmured answers I barely realized I was answering her; but the last question made my heart sink she asked me how I'd feel if I ate her, If I ate her, rarity you know how horrible I am when it comes to those things" reminded R.D as rarity just nods solemnly keeping to herself offering what little solace she could. "It wasn't Intel she asks again that I answered I said I'd feel dead inside that I'd feel like my heart dried out and shriveled up or at least that's what I'd say now sigh. I don't even remember to be honest; but what I do remember is what she said afterwards and it still haunts me, she asked me if I wanted to, to eat her and that she didn't care as long as I was happy that I was the only sister she wanted and nothing I did could change that so longs I told her why." Said R.D as she feels a hoof put on her shoulder albeit ignored as she continues. "When I finally stopped crying enough I told her why, there wasn't an emotion on her not in her voice just a blank face and when I asked her why she'd except that, she said because she loved me and she wanted to be a part of my life even if it meant she had to be my next meal to do it. Pretty soon she started asking me if I would if I would eat her. And we keep talking in circles before she began asking me what she tasted like after that she started asking me to, and eventually I couldn't help it hunger was starting to hurt me." "but I kept strong tell she put her hoof in my mouth saying if I didn't eat her it would mean I didn't care either way and eventually hunger got the better of me, she didn't even move or even try to and I didn't even fight myself till afterwards and I spent the next hour trying to talk her out of it when I asked if she really really wanted to spend the last moments melting inside me; but when she stopped responding I took it upon myself and forced her out. even when I look at her now It still haunts me. If it wasn't for zecora shed still be missing her fur and covered in burns! ng MHG ah ng." Finished R.D as she breaks down. Rarity couldn't speak all she could do was hold and embrace a broken Pegasus as the mess let out bottled emotions about her favorite fledgling. "its OK she's fine now we can't dwell on a mistake if we do it won't get any better" tried rarity hoping she had said the right thing as she offered her best comforts. "And ya have a right ta be but listen so long as ah'm still bucken their ain't anything that's gonna dare hurt ya, ya hear" said a.j as her sister clings to her like super glue. "R.r real. lyly, but ya-" stammered applebloom as she imbedded herself against her sister she was awake fully now only to be told the truth of what was and what wasn't nightmare. "Ah said ah wouldn't let it happen now sweetie's almost ready for ya and remember yer in an enclosed area five high, five wide, and five long space with one in an out yer gonna be fine" assured a.j as she tried to get up but was held down by a petrified fillies stone solid death grip. "Sweetie? Sweetie, Equus to sweetie?" Tried rarity as her sister just looked straight through her. 'What the (by some Apple's) just... did I...did she ng oh bucken.....she just... Then she..she...ngh hrmmk ng my sis just.... And now she's, she's... Bucking LICKING ME CLEAN!!!!' Tried sweetie screaming internally. "I think you broke her," said R.D as she watched rarity levitate and lick the blood and slimy clear fluids off her sister. 'Why the bucking hell am I watching this and why in the (by some Apple's) hell can't I look away!?' Thought R.D cursing herself only to find drool running down her chin. 'Because you like it you want to lick her too-no shut up get out of my head!' Fought dash as a side of her tries to take over. "Ya mean like split personalities!?" Asked applebloom at hearing her sisters words. "Yeah, it happens when ya try ta keep yer vore life separate from yer public life. Purty soon ya got a sick twisted voce whispering, teasing an tempting ya ta do horrid nasty twisted things" explained a.j as her sister just froze. "But don't worry ah don't got one and ya won't get one because ya got sweetie scootaloo an me ta talk to, it only happens to the ones who hold it all in" Continues a.j noticing her sister start shaking and quivering. 'Caruption?..... Cur...CURSE!' Tried applebloom mentally before she stammers "Ya mean ah..swe. Scoo. We... We're CURSED!!!!??" Said applebloom ending in a shout as she felt limp. "Ah know but yer fine ah won't let it happen," said a.j reassuringly seeing her sister turn pail feeling her limpen "......" "Ya know what ah think will cheer ya up?" Tried a.j hugging her sister. "...." "..n." "Seeing yer friends" said a.j trying to put as much enthusiasm in her voice as she could hoping it would in encourage her sisters hopes. ".." "There fine sugar cube ah never lied ta ya ah may have left out a lot but that was ta try n keep ya out of this damn hell! Ng mn ngn mm ahmmm Sar sarsar saaryy ah emph ng mm nonmng" said a.j trying not to show weakness before shattering as her sister began bear hugging her. "... A. A.J ah don't won't ta go through it anymore can ya ng put mmn sigh ah love ya ng" tried applebloom ending in a sigh as her sister showed she got the message. 'Sigh at least this way ah won't dre... dream...sigh' thought a.b losing consciousness in her sisters choke hold sighing as her mind goes blank and everything goes black. A.j lets her limp sister out of her hold in stunned panic 'what'd ah just do? No!' She thinks as she checks her sisters pulse "oh thank heavens" said a.j in relief hugging her sister as she sets her down. "It'll be alright ah promise" said a.j as she leaves the makeshift furniture fort closing the woven fabric n pillow door as she left. "Sweetie..ng rarity!?" Started a.j as she stair's at a disgruntled filly being licked clean like a newborn giraffe. "Almost done darling just got to get behind her ears" said rarity nonchalantly like it was the most natural thing to lick some pony clean. "Uhmmn?" Murmured a.j as she watched sweetie's left eye twitch in succession to her right ear as her sister licked an unblinking eye before moving to to her ears. "Yeah I think she might be broken" began R.D as she walked over to a.j with bloodshot eyes. "Their both broken!?" Said a.j as she pointed an exclaimed hoof at the two in questionable and possibly shattered sanity. "Well how's bloom faring?" Asked R.D as she sat down next to a.j as she continued to watch as rarity whispered something in her sisters ear. "Uh ng ah.. she's out like a light ml" stammered a.j as she tries to make sense of what had happened. "Are you alright you're looking like you did when pinky... Oh my gosh did you eaulp mmm mn mm" began dash before a hoof is shoved in her blabbing pie hole. "No! Just out cold" exclaimed a.j remembering the length she'd gone once to ensure her sisters safety the flashback of several ponies with their heads turned backwoods ex military guard stile eyes glazed over rushed through her head before a feeling of something squirming brought her back. Dash tried everything but nothing could free her from the death hold a.j had her, poised to snap her neck before suddenly being released. 'Huh' thought a.j before realizing she had one hoof covering her friends mouth her hind leg locking her in place as she had her right arm around the throat. "Oh damn it I'm sorry ah just can't take much more of this dash my sis literally asked me ta choke er out and ah didn't even hesitate!" Exclaimed a.j in shock releasing her. "Cough cough humlk ah I'm OK I think we're both pretty near our breaking point Gee's Jacky ya liften th' barn r som'n?." Said dash catching her breath letting her humour out to try and lighten the mood. "Ahm sorry ah ah ah just don'no what- A.J your fine I forgot a trigger its no problem your fine." Said dash before her friend went on apologizing for the next hour. "There all clean darling" said rarity distracting a.j and r.d from a would be argument. "Is she ready now?" Asked a.j in impatience as rarity gave her sister a few finishing licks before pinching her cheeks and kissing her on the forehead. "Almost she just has a meal to finish and she'll be good as new" answered rarity before levitating a bowl of fleshy mush from behind her and spoon feeding it to her sister. "Ah don't got time fur this!" Told a.j moving to sweatie's position grabbing the bowl of mush gagging as she saw what it was. R.d watch jaw dropped as a.j plugged sweetie's nose lifting her muzzle up and having the mush pure down the fillies throat. Meanwhile in said fillies fragile mind. Why?....….............I her babies....eating...it do no taste no my do from me...why!!!!! Oh fore all the..ng what am I do what why huh no I taste its wrong with me I love sis candy jinker fishing?!........ Duh...??' Thought sweatie as her mind scrambles out of control absentmindedly swallowing each time her mouth was full. "O...ky that just happened" said r.d coming back from her wandering mind to see the final contents of the bowl slip down the stone stiff fillies gullet which squelching gulps. "Hmlk sigh" choked back a.j as the last of the repulsive mushy flesh slides down the fillies gullet which to her surprise didn't fight her curious she moves sweetie's head back as far as it would go and let go nothing she was like a manikin that held what ever pose you put it in. "She's broke.... No just dead shocked she'll be fine when she sees my sister' thought a.j heartbroken seeing that the dramatized ball of fur wouldn't be moving on her own she moves her herself. 'Uh OK?' Thought R.D as she watched a.j pick up sweetie by the scruff of the neck as tears threatened to fall knowing full well why as she carried the small filly in her mouth. 'Why?' Thought a.j as she feels sweetie curl up in a fetal position as she begins carrying her toward the makeshift fortress of what she hoped would be solitude moving the sheet n pillow door she goes in closing the door behind. "Sigh" ' why, why couldn't she just gone ta twi' Thought a.j as she walked in the makeshift fort closing the door behind her turning around filly in mouth she looks to her unconscious sister as she thinks 'Why of all the damned things did it have ta be this?!' Walking over and setting the stiff malleable filly next to her sister watching as sweatie fell over but didn't show any sings of movement. "Apple Bloom?" Asked a.j nearly crying not sure if she should just let them rest as she looks at sweatie wondering what was going through the frozen fillies mind. 'oh any moma heyberger hungry chosen me day n mm mm mm drug by bye!?!... My my my may I MySISTERGAVEBURTHTOME!!!!!..maple gut'. Tried sweatie finally contemplating what had happened as her chaotic thought train took off again. 'Cornsarnet rarity! This is all yer fault!... An mine, why?' Thought an irate a.j as tears started to fall. Sniffle aahamngh sob sniffle "why?" Said a.j as she cries to herself. "Rarity, Rarity. Rarity!?" Said rainbow trying to get her mind numb friend to keep talking failing as the mare stared through her rambling on about random things as far off as food from fabrics. "A.j's right their both broken uhg why me?!" Said dash preparing to high tail it if it went south. "Oh sweetie diner Its your favorite chary carpet stew with a side of- slaap..." Rambles rarity before she's slapped across the face. "Uh she didn't even, oh crap!" Started R.D before rarity started to make a strange sound it started as a murmur but grew in volume. "Nnnmnmmnmnmnmmnrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaggh!!!!!!!" Let out rarity before chasing a fleeing Pegasus. "Whaaa, help!!" Shouted dash as she took off running before taking to the air. 'At least they look peaceful sigh' thought a.j before hearing a familiar pony cry out. "Ugh what now?!" Groaned a.j as she made her way out. "What n Tarnation Is going on!!?" Exclaimed a.j as she watched a rainbow blur dragging an enraged unicorn behind as the mare jet skied around the room. "Rrgh that's it" said a.j as she grabbed her rope n lasso. 'Bad idea bad idea' thought R.D as she dragged rarity around the mare's jaw clinched shut on the rainbow appendage making a final lap before finding herself lassoed to the mare. "What in th' blue fu** s wrong with you two!" Fumed a.j as she bound the two together. "Uh she-" started the two before their cut short. "Ah don't CARE just look at yerselves!" Exclaimed a.j as her friends look down in shame; but before she could scold any further she hears her sister. "Now look whatcha gone n done" said a.j as an idea grabbed her attention. "Hey?!" Complained R.D as an apple is stuffed in her mouth. "Mmm nmn sigh" tried r.d albeit ignored as a.j walked away grabbed her saddlebags and interred the fort. "A.J?, A.J?! Ah can't see,ahh" called applebloom confused, gasping as she's brought into a sudden but welcome embrace. "Shh it's OK" soothed a.j as her sister stayed limp before returning the embrace. "Sis ah ah.ca.ah..see sweatie?" Uttered applebloom scared and confused as she begins to remember things as her sister holds her. "In a minute can ya close yer eyes fur a sec?" Asked a.j reassuringly getting an almost in addable murmur in reply. "Ya promise ta keep em closed?" Said a.j asking for confirmation. "Mm-hmm" "Good now keep em closed" repeated a.j as she began untying the blindfold. "Uhmmn" mumbled applebloom confused as her sister removed the blindfold wondering if it was OK to look yet. "Not yet" said a.j sweetly as she tossed the blindfold aside and replaced it. "A.J?" Asked applebloom wondering what her sister was doing as she felt her mane being redone. "Yer fine......OK don't take it off but ya can look" said a.j as she put her sisters mane in a bun and tied the pink bow around it holding it in place. "Ah..?" Questioned applebloom confused. "Their modified welder's goggles" explained A.J as she sees her sisters confusion. "But th... Council??" Began applebloom confused whether or not to open her eyes. "Oh sugar cube it's OK please, sweetie's sleeping right next ta ya" soothed a.j the latter getting her sister's attention. "Re.really? Whah sis ah can barely see.." Said applebloom confused as she's only able see a few feet in front of her the rest becoming near outlines as she looks around. "Oh swea!?..What's wrong with her eye's?" Said bloom excitement turning to worry as she looks closer at her friend nuzzling her. "Sis?!" Questions bloom as she began sniffling. "Sigh its called dead shock, she's in there aware of everything but just not 'here' here" sighed a.j explaining the reason for sweetie's motionless verbally unresponsive absent-minded state. "Whah? She..ah...?" Tried apple bloom not understanding. "Sigh it's like th's she's aware yet absent" continued a.j as she moved to demonstrate what she meant. "Ah...?" Tried apple bloom trailing off, watching as her sister picked up sweetie by her scruff as she sees sweetie move into a fetal position. 'She...she's..?' Thought applebloom trying to comprehend what her sister was portraying. ''Oh sweetie come on ya can't be this far gone' thought a.j as she moved the ponykin like fillies legs into a standing position. "Swee, sweetie?" Murmured apple bloom watching as her sister manually moved sweetie's limbs before setting her down. 'She's not..?...'there' there?' She thought as she watched her friend stand motionless eyes forward her pupils small tiny dots against purl white saucers. "When do you think she'll be back?" Asked R.D turning as far as the rope's would allow. Hearing no response as she listened to the subtle sniffling of her friend behind her. 'I..I..I just... Then I...what's wrong with me! I just then... I was just licking...then I..a.j feed my...to..she. Didn't..respond or real or fight i my sister.... I BROKE MY LITTLE Sister!!' thought rarity sobbing as her mind slowed down enough for things to start registering. 'Wait squirt what if sh.. but she asked me to she's aware of...isn't she?' Thought dash worriedly as she registers what she might be putting her adoptive sister through in the next few hours. [hn "Sweetie? Come on sweetie please ah can't do this alone please?" Tried applebloom hugging her friend as she lies limp in her embrace as tears fell and soaked sweetie's fur. "A.j whada ah do?" She asks looking at her sister for guidance. "Ah don't rightly know besides being there talking and comforting her, try reminding her of the good um the happy moments ah guess?" Answered a.j not sure if she'd be much help as she watched her sister trying to resist the urge to hurt rarity. "....." " hey sweetie ya remember when we tried getting are cutie marks in mimeing but we couldn't keep quite enough?" Started applebloom recalling the funny things "Or when we had are first sleepover?" Recalling the joy.'Sniffle ah really miss that" said bloom as she lays down guiding sweatie to do the same sniffling as she does. "And remember the time the three of you tried getting yer marks as pie chief's ah swear you three looked like ya went through the dough mixer yerselves" ads a.j with a light chuckle as she lied down next to sweetie her long foreleg bringing both fillies closer. "Yeah that was ridiculous" said applebloom a small giggle escaping as she remembered the incident. "Remember the fist time ah took ya and scoots ta zecora's an got lost but you found the right path again I was just bout ta give up but you said we'd find it an ya were right. Sweetie yer a lot stronger then ya give yourself credit fur" continued applebloom as a few tears fell sinking into sweatie's mane. "I..she my fed ... ....I..no she did ...do my my!.. A..Apple a.b? Oh applebloom sorry its all my fault you don't deserve this I'm dumbbell an idiot am so sorry a.b mmn." Thought sweatie as her mind began to settle allowing her a straight thought. "Ya remember when y'all had yer first sleepover in the clubhouse anya caught me taking a picture of the three of ya curled up in a ball as tight as ya could make yourself?" Said a.j noticing sweatie's ear twiitch twice but continuing as her sister giggles. 'How could I forget she wouldn't stop talking about it tell you gave her the photo or at least a copy....an.. why can't I move I can't even feel...anything at least I deserve it and I don't want to either' thought sweatie as her mind began settling as she felt something wet hit her eye and blinked. 'Iiii..I.didn't I'm sorry ng' she though as sh felt her muzzle twitching. "yeah and scootaloo freaked out and tried getting the camera" laughed applebloom warm tears running down her cheek and into sweetie's eye followed be a short blinking as another ear twitched. 'I.I... Yeah that was funny ii can.can you forgive me? I'm sorry I didn't know what it was' nmmng nnm" thought sweetie as she feels her nose begin burning. "Yeah an...sniffling..." Began applebloom a light whimpering causing her to lose the thought as a new one takes its place. "Sweetie please its OK now please don't stay in there ah miss ya, yer singing calming voice ya remember when ah fist caught ya mid song ah swear sweatie you can jump twice as high as me" continued bloom as her friends ear twitches. 'I..im crying? Why am i.. She's huggi...holding me ...? My throat hurts and my tummy burn's ugh my head pon pounding my eyes burns oh my everything?! Em I crying?' Thought sweetie as her mind swims. "Come on sweetie please, once a crusader always a crusader, ah ah love you sweetie please yer my best friend, ya stood up fur me an ah got yer back please when ya ready ahm here, ah'll always be here fur ya nmm mm ah when yer ready" said applebloom encouragingly watching as her friends ear twitched thrice. "Ah love ya" finished applebloom tiredly as she nuzzled up to sweetie holding her, hoping her company offered enough solace. "Ah know ahm probably not a voice ya wanna hear but ahm here fur ya, keep my sis company ah gotta go see if scootaloo's ready yet" said a.j softly in sweatie's ear before hugging them both and leaving to check on two tied up mare's. "Hey!" Called a.j angrily coming out of the fort to find R.D bickering at rarity. "I am the prettiest unicor..make it stop!" Shouted R.D cutting off rarity's ramblings. "Ugh riiight, OK then?" Thought a.j seeing rarity bobbing her head to a tune she couldn't hear. "Pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows" sings rarity repeatedly. "Ugh I can't think" groaned a.j at the broken record of a unicorn before yelling " shut up!" As she began to get a headache. "........" "Sigh finally- that goes fur ya to dash!" Retorted a.j silencing them both as she rubbed her temples. "...." 'It's almost noon just tree days an everything's handled' thought a.j as she looked at the clock its loud ticking making her left ear twitch with every passing second. "OK then, shut up an let me talk" snaps a.j like a whip R.D mouth shutting with an audible chomp. "...." "Let's start with scootaloo how long tell my sis can see er?" Asked a.j moving towards the cyan Pegasus. "...." "How long?" Asked a.j as she strokes a hoof across rainbows gut getting a short wriggling as a result. "..umm....to" stammered dash as her favorite fledgling reoriented herself. "I'm sorry what's that?" Asks a.j as she puts an ear to R.D's gut as scootaloo moved again this time hearing the fluids churning and sighs. "Ya know I wonder if her wings 'll come out right this time?" Pondered a.j as she moves away giving dash a predators smile. Gulp "i ugh, ok I admit it I don't know when she'll come out yet!" Blurted dash watching as a.j 's hoof drags across her belly. "Uh huh so ageless fertility where it's her decision to an when to come out or not huh, the records three years ya know" stated a.j putting her face up next to dash's distended gut as it gave another short wriggle. "so you wanna come out yet scootaloo" Asked a.j hearing R.D wince. "...." Silence. "See she's not ready she hasn't even finished redevelopment yet" stated dash as she lets out a sigh of relief. "uh I can't decide, so how's sweetie?" came a muffled voice. "Huh, are ya sure bout that dash?" Asks a.j as she looks at a dumbfounded Pegasus. "......." "Are Ya?" Asked a.j resting her hoof on the side of scootaloo's living arrangement. "But that's... Um, scoots?" Murmured dash as her gut gave another short wriggle. "umm hello? I'm kinda board in here... Wait you mean if I stay in longer my wings might get bigger awesome I'm totally staying then! oh how's sweats, she's not... Please dash I wanna hear her voice" responded scootaloo her muffled voice making her sound older. "Uh" said dash trying to come to terms with her talking gut. "She's sleeping but ahm sure applebloom would love it" said a.j as she gave dash a warning look. "oh ok how's she doing, ya didn't eat her...right?" asks scoots at hearing her friends name. "Of course not why is it DAT Everypony thinks ah'd eat my sis, she means more ta me than anythin th's crazed world could give me in a lifetime!?" Exclaimed a.j pointedly realizing she was yelling into her friends gut she pulls away. "Uh why don't ah take ya, ya both to er" said a.j staring daggers at the latter. "Ya try any-thin an ah'll make yer life miserable ya hear" said a.j darkly as she moved to untie the knots. "Uh huh gulp" murmured R.D as a.j began untying knot's. "Ah mean it" said a.j seriously as she hogtied rarity the mare speaking random gibberish. "I know" responds dash as she followed a.j to the fort. "Shh wait here" shushed a.j as entered closing the door on Dash. "Ah love ya sweetie" murmured applebloom sleepily as she curled tighter around sweatie as her sister walks In. 'Sigh why?' Thought a.j closing the door and turning to see her sister nuzzled up with a now sleeping friend held tight in embrace. 'Why them?' She asked herself as she lies down next to her sister nuzzling her as she brings them closer. "Yawn a.j?" Yawned applebloom sleepily as she felt movement. "Yeah ahm here" said a.j embracing her younger sibling. "Ah sweatie's gonna be fine right?" Asked bloom concerned. "She'll be fine ya know why?" Countered a.j trying to keep her sister from worrying. "Ah,no why?" Responded applebloom sadly. "Cause she has you sager cube" answered a.j her sister giving short smile as she hugs her. "Yeah" said applebloom a smile across her muzzle disappearing as she thinks where her other best friend could be. "Um a.j is scoots uh?" Began bloom not sure if shed like the answer. "Sigh she's fine she just.." Started a.j not sure how to tell her. "....just what, please?" Asked applebloom a short whimper escaping her as she worried about her friend. "She's fine its just well she's like sweetie was with rarity except she can talk n stuff" tried a.j as she felt her sister tens up. "Ya mean sh..she unberthed?!" Asks applebloom ear twitching as she holds sweetie tighter. "Yeah but conscious and she can talk with ya, ya wanna see. Um talk with her?" Responds a.j trying to explain her friends situation. "Um ah guess?" Answered a.b unsure of herself. "Easy squirt your gonna hurt something?!" Complained R.D as her fledgling squirmed inside her. "sorry its just a bit cramped you mind standing for a bit?" came a familiar guttural response. "Sigh fine by the way are you head up or down?" Asked dash as she stands up for what felt like the fifteenth time. "uh let me check" said scootaloo as she reoriented herself albeit to R.D's discomfort. 'Ugh sigh why'd I let her chose this?' Thought dash as she felt her sister stretch out two hooves imprinting her stomach. from the sound of your heart an the way gravity feels I think I'm head up and back side down explained an eager voice as she got comfortable. "Good now you comfy yet?" Asked dash as she felt scootaloo settle. yeah for now anyway but if you sit down again try sitting straighter answers scootaloo as she nuzzled her self in. "OK but please don't move so fast next time" said dash as the forts door opened revealing a bemused a.j. "um so, when do I get to well speak with bloom?"asked scoots timidly. "Well how bout now?" Responded a.j showing R.D a sly smile getting a slight blush in response. "ok, uh hurry up I can't get there on my own you know?!" said an eager fledgling. "Ok then um, she's a bit unnerved bout the unbirthing thing so?" Responds a.j eyeing R.D discerningly. "oh uh, ok I won't say much, unless she asks" said scootaloo as she felt her carriers movement. 'Ah Hope you wake up soon ah don't know how much more ah can take' thought applebloom as she held sweetie close listing to her friends heart beat, offering as much warmth and comfort as she could. "Sagercube?" Asked a.j as she came in seeing her sister raise her head and look in her direction. "Yeah" responded applebloom trying to see her sister as much as the goggles would allow. " are ya ready" asked a.j moving to where her sister could see her. ".." "Ah guess?" Said applebloom not sure of herself. "She's fine, oddly happy but fine" said a.j assuringly at seeing her sisters frown. "Ok" said applebloom meekly as she rests her head on sweetie's neck. "Alright" responds a.j as she makes her way out. "..." 'Ah wonder how she feels; but how can she talk, shouldn't she be... What if she is suffocating!... Why? ah hate this!' Thought a.b worrying about her friend as she let a few tears go. "OK but please don't move so fast next time" said dash as the forts door opened revealing a bemused a.j. "um so, when do ah get to, well speak with applebloom?" asked scoots timidly. "Well how bout now?" Responded a.j showing R.D a sly smile getting a slight blush in response. OK uh, hurry up I can't get there on my own you know?!" said an eager fledgling. "Ok then um, she's a bit unnerved bout the unbirthing thing so?" Responds a.j eyeing R.D discerningly. "oh uh, ok I won't say much, unless she asks" said scootaloo as she felt her carriers movement. 'Sigh ah hope she won't be to freaked out' thought a.j as she opens the door and comes in. ".." "Its fine sager cube ain't nothen to worry bout" said a.j assuring her sister that everything's fine. seeing her smile she walks over to her letting dash close the door behind her. 'Sigh I just hope she doesn't say anything stupid' thought R.D as she made her way over sitting next to a.j watching as she brought her sister and sweetie closer. 'Please don't faint again' mentally begged a.j as she Nuzzled her sister. "Sis?" Asked applebloom nervously as her sister pulled her in closer. "Its fine, whenever yer ready" soothed a.j as her sister gave an occasional tremor. "Sweetie ah.." Began a.b unsure what to say or ask. "She'll be fine, tell ya what ah'll hold er close when ya go sound good?" Said a.j soothingly. "When yer ready" she added. "hey when em I gonna talk with her I can barely hear her?!" exclaimed an inpatient muffled voice. "Huh um....?" Said applebloom nervously as she looked in the direction of a familiar sounding voice. "See ah told ya she's fine, ya ready now?" Responded a.j as her sister froze staring mouth slightly ajar. "It's a bit weird but, ya kinda get used to it" said dash trying to be encouraging. 'Seriously ya couldn't of come up with anything better¿' mentally face hoofed a.j as her sister began to move. "Is she...really, in there?" Asked applebloom nervously as she got up. "uh where else would I be, wait is that you bloom?"asked scootaloo as she realizes who was talking. "Ummm yeeaah, yer not suffocating are ya!?!"said a.b before exclaiming and rushingly placing an ear against R.D hugging the the large bulge. "ay easy your gonna squish me!" exclaimed scootaloo as she tries to reorient herself. "Gasp yer drowning!?" Gasped a.b as she hears slushing as she felt her friend squirm. "What no!" Said R.D and scootaloo simultaneously. "applebloom calm down there's plenty of air in here, plenty!" continued scoots as she felt her friend loosen up. "Re. Really?" Asked a.b confused 'this just don't make a heap a sense' she thinks As she rested herself against the large bulge as she felt a short wriggling. "yeah I got this cord thing sticking out of my gut thats attached the one of the super soft mushy, and smooth walls in here it's totally awesome" Said an over eager Pegasus. "Ng uuhh hhuuh, yep ah need ta lay agh sigh" slurs applebloom as falls on her back fainting. "uh applebloom ya there?" asks scootaloo as she felt the pressure her friend's weight had put on her lessen before fading completely. "to much?" she asks as she reoriented herself. "She's out squirt" stated dash as she looks at a heap of filly on her back in a fetal position an occasional hoof giving a small twitching. "Yep" drones a.j as a short squirming grabs her attention. 'Where em I mm smells like cinnamon, no honey mmm apple pie mm apple's' thought sweetie as she felt her stomach rumble. 'Is she coming around? Oh please sweetie' thought a.j pleadingly as she allowed the small filly room to move. 'Uh' thought dash as she watched sweetie sniff the air and lick her chops. 'Well this will be interesting' she figured as said unicorn locked on to the source of the smell and rose to her hooves eyes closed taking a few more whiffs. 'This is good now bloom won't have ta face ng...' Thought a.j stopping dead as she felt somepony give her forehoof a good long lick. 'Strange it tastes like Apple pie but mmm smells good, oh ta heck with it!' Though sweetie tasting a slight difference paying it no mind as she bits down and Begin's socking on her tasty treat and takes her first swallow, only to hear a shout, opening her eyes as she finds herself staring at a slightly familiar and upset face. 'Uh?' A.j thinks before feeling something chomp and swallow her hoof cuff n all. "ay!" Let's out a.j startling her sister awake as she quickly looks to see sweetie's maw engulfing her hoof as the fillies eyes shoot open, now staring back at her Leiden and confused. "Ogh a.j?...sweetie. Ng sweetie?" Came applebloom before starting dumbfounded as she sees her friend gnawing on her sister. "..." ' OK now that's funny I wish I had my camera!' Thought dash watching as sweetie and a.j staired at each other one gnawing away not a care in the world. "Uh" mussed applebloom as she made her way over as R.D held back a snicker. 'She's not even registering' thought a.j watching as a care free filly gnawed and socked away on her hoof eyes Leiden like a foul with a bottle. 'Is she..no she sucking? Like a foul?' Puzzled a.b as she looked at her sister concerned confusion written on her face. "Uh, its harmless um mind grabbing my saddle bags?" Said a.j unnerved looking to her sisters scrunched up face as she allowed an increasingly hungry unicorn filly to use her hoof like a teething ring. "Uh, OK" responds applebloom thinking 'this IS nut's!' As she looked for her sisters saddle bags. "So, get yer hoof caught in the cooky jar?" Asked R.D trying to hold back her Laugh's watching as a.b grabs a.j's saddlebags. 'Mmmm I'm soooo hungry! Sigh Apple's' thought sweetie as she felt her stomach groan and she gave another, stronger swallow. "Auh" let out a.j as her hoof is taken in glutinously another few inches, 'Sigh why?' She thought annoyed as her sister brought her saddlebags over to her using her spare hoof she takes out what she needs. "A.j.....?" Asks applebloom as she sees her sister pull a large Tupperware container out and try to open it struggling a bit. "Sigh she's fine just a little numb ugh can ya get this?" Responds a.j trying and failing and giving it to her sister to open. "Uh, th's don't bother ya?" Asked applebloom opening the container to find an entire and still warm cinnamon Apple pie. 'Huh still warm' she thought as she hooves it to her sister. Watching as her sister began wafting it in front of sweetie's now twitching nose. 'Mmmm app..huh oh mmm that smells like huh sigh good mm' thought sweetie following the stronger pie smell. "See?" Said a.j as she continued to waft the fresh slice of apple pie in front of sweetie's nose as she began sliding her hoof out of the carnivorous fillies maw. "Uh so how often has this happened?" Asks applebloom watching as her sister's hoof comes out of her friend's mouth with slurp sound and a slice of pie is inhaled almost taking her other hoof with it. "Happened with pinkie a few times" answered a.j as her hoof is nearly chomped in a squelching gulp as she grabs the tray and brings it to the fillies awaiting maw an eager eater horphing it down ending in an impressive belch. 'Sighhh mmmm much better now where am I huh..... A.j? dash? gasp applebloom!' thought sweetie as things began registering. "Gasp moobelppa ouyrko!" Said sweetie or tried to with a gasp. "Huh," said the group in unison as a.j just sighs. '......please be joking' thought applebloom pleadingly as she staired blankly at her friend's odd smile.
inpolse control“Hey watch it scoots!” shouts Apple Bloom having been sprayed by slime. “Uh Sweetie are you OK?” asked Scoots noticing her friend's blank stare. ‘OK? OK! I just had to eat my sister let alone fight myself so I didn't eat you!, OK... I'm not... I'm the exact opposite of OK I'm ..mortified. psychotic sick in the head a freak….I'm... I'm a monster!’ screamed Sweetie internally. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo concerned. as her friend just looks on blankly. 'I...I...but I almost ate you Scoots how I... mm I just supposed to live with...I'm a.......so....hungry no.I won't be like her I...I I wonder if Apple Bloom tastes like app..no I won't I... so hungry' thought Sweetie fighting her hunger cravings as a new mindset tries to take hold of her. "Uh...Sweetie?!" repeated Scootaloo hearing Sweeties stomach growl as her friend licks her chops. "Are ya OK Sweets ya lookin at us like-?" asked Apple Bloom cut off as Sweetie mumbles something. "Crmlapl- I'm sorry Sweets what?" asked Apple Bloom, looking at Sweetie questioningly as her friend licked her lips and began to drool slightly making her a bit nervous. "Oh no Sweetie stop don'-!-mmm...mmm. mmm" said Apple Bloom, calling out before being cut off. "Sweetie! Stop this isn't you control yourself, fight it; you're not like her sto -" yelled Scootaloo cut off stunned as Sweetie stuffs Apple Bloom in her mouth watching in horror/shock as her shrunken friend's hind legs and tail flail about as they stick out of Sweeties lips. 'come on it's just one friend no I... they love you, either way, remember I.. I...' thought Sweetie fighting herself as she felt her friend flail in between her lips as she drools and sucks on her like a pacifier. "Swee mmmm...Sweetie...mm. belle" tried A.B as she's smacked with her best friend's tongue. "Sweetie don't... Fight it... It's not you get a hold of yourself-" shouted Scootaloo helpless in her shrunken state as she sees Sweetie slurp up Bloom and slush her friend around. "Sweetie!" yelled Scoots as she desperately tries to snap her best friend out of her vore n drug-induced trance and stop her from mindlessly devouring Apple Bloom. 'mmm, caramel apple" thought Sweetie as she pressed Apple Bloom to the roof of her mouth. "Please..mm.cough.no Swee.. oomph. Sweetie, mm-ell ...Y'all never mmmm...not be my mmm. BFF" said Bloom coughing up her friend's saliva as she realizes she wasn't coming out of this one. "Sweetie no!" shouted Scootaloo as she watched her best friend swallow Apple Bloom. 'that wasn't that bad she tasted jus- NO!' thought Sweetie as the realization hits her like a runaway train. "Appl...I... Did I really mnng...no" shuddered Sweetie. "Sweetie, stay calm we can fix this we just need to stay- " started Scootaloo cut off seeing her friends dilated bloodshot eyes start to water as she mumbles before panicking. "STAY CALM STAY CALM JUST STAY CALM I JUST ATE APPLE BLOOM MY BEST FRIEND AND YOU' ALL YOU CAN SAY IS STAY CALM!" boomed Sweetie Belle cutting her friend off devastation and panic taking hold as Scootaloo shoves her hooves as hard against her ears as she can her eyes watering just by the sheer volume of her friend's voice. "HOW IN TARTARUS DO EXPECT ME TO STAY CALM!?" roared Sweetie as she absentmindedly throws Scootaloo out of her levitation spell in blind rage/panic. "Sweetie please calm daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-oomph -humng!?" tried Scoots before she found herself flying across the room slamming into the bottom of an open jar lying on the floor taking the air out of her lungs the force causing the jar to turn upright. "NO I won't! Huh -Scootaloo!" finished Sweetie realizing what she'd done as she runs over to her friend the chain her sister shackled to her hooves clanking behind her coming taut and tripping her, coming muzzle to, glass with Scootaloo. "Mm mnng hammer!?" mumbled Scoots incoherently as she staggered around before falling on her rump. "Scoots!?" asked Sweetie worriedly as she watching her friend stagger before falling on her flank. "I'm prettier than a clown on Monday- flowerbed- muh- I'm fine Sweetie...stop listen!" stuttered Scootaloo before shaking her dizzy sight and possible concussion off and trying again to get through to Sweetie. "Scootaloo I-" started Sweetie before her friend stops her mid-apology. "Sweetie! You need to listen" demanded Scootaloo cutting her friend off. "Mm-hmm" murmured Sweetie full of fear and dread as sob-less tears stained her cheeks. "OK first I need you to pinkie promise me you won't do that 'again' then take me over to that table and do everything I say no questions asked OK," said Scootaloo oddly calm as she instructed Sweetie. "OK" squeaked Sweetie as she did as told. 'I'm so sorry Apple Bloom I... I'm a monster I didn't even deserve you as the friend you were to me and now 'you're' gone' thought Sweetie silently crying remembering how she and bloom first met as she walked over to the table. (https://youtu.be/Jkdgg51_yZ8?t=172) 'this is worse then the nightmare I got when I sabotaged sapphire shores headdress because I thought my sister..." thought Sweetie stopping her thoughts short as she remembers what Luna had shown her. https://youtu.be/L_cZ3K8EnwU?t=2 'so that's why I went down my sister's throat oh-ugh she tried to warn me and I wasn't even- oh why?!' thought Sweetie scorning herself as a feeling of stupidity temporarily takes place of the guilt before it comes back full force. As she sets Scootaloo's jar on the table before letting herself fall on her flank head down in frustrated shame dreading what was happening to her best friend. "OK Sweetie this started with the book so "it's gonna" end with the book" said Scootaloo drawing a dreading/questioning look from Sweetie. "No just listen" finished Scoots before her friend could pose one. "Sweetie you need the book" stated Scoots as she sees her friends hesitance to grab it off the floor next to her. "Mmnt uh" denied Sweetie almost inaudible as she wonders in fear of what cursed fate she'd bring on her other friend if she dared to. "Come on Sweetie we don't have time for this! Do you want to save Apple Bloom?" said Scootaloo the question getting her friend's attention. " Wah...-uh huh!" answered Sweetie as confusion/hop rise. "On page three hundred and eighty-seven there are instructions on emergency- Impulse-v-victim-rescues" explained Scootaloo as Sweetie grabs the book and opens it to the specified page. 'and just how do you know' thought sweetie preparing the question and shocked to see she was right. "How did-" asked Sweetie as she looks at the illustrations cut off. "There's no time Sweetie just do what it says but read it all the way through as many times as you need to " instructed Scootaloo as she tries not to cry about what she was about to reveal. Pg.387 chapter 56 E.I.V.V.R or emergency impulse voraphile victim rescue, *so you lost control don't worry in this chapter you find ways to undo what's been done if you've accidentally eaten a friend skip to section three.* 'oh please' thought Sweetie a new and distasteful hope rising as she read and skipped to the specified section. "Scoots?" 'Is she trying to say she's done this before but that means... I she oh Scootaloo why?!*' asked Sweetie ending in an angered thought confused/shock on her face. "I'm so sorry I didn't think it was Rarity's I... I. I I VOLUNTEER! page three hundred and ninety through ninety-four!" confessed Scootaloo volunteering for the disturbing endeavor. "You. Knew?" asked Sweetie a saddened anger in her voice. "I thought it was R.D's Sweetie I've been initiated Rainbow- -shut up just shut up!*" said Scootaloo trying to explain voice cracking as she tries not to cry cut off wincing as her friend yelled at her. Sweetie stairs at her friend in disbelief and anger. 'why i... I trusted you I'LL..." ' no. If I'm any indication I know what she's been through I... I I'll deal with this latter' she thought judgingly. Trying to do just that and failing as anger surges through her like an Untamed beast with no cage and a weak chain holding it back as she tries to keep a cool head. *so an impulse got the better of you no problem just follow the detailed instructions and illustrations* Step 1 Gather the following materials. ~ diluting gel ~Flim n' Flam Cough Syrup ~one shot glass or a one tablespoon measuring spoon ~one combination lock lidded jar. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo nervously as she watches her friend read over the book. "What!?*" answered Sweetie with a death stair on the brink of pure rage at her friend's knowledge of the subject. As she goes over the instructions. "Huh?" hummed Sweetie as her friend just points in response looking over at the area Scootaloo was pointing to she sees what she needs there on the wall to her left scripted in bold bright red letters E.I.V.V.R kits. 'E.I.V.V.R?' thought Sweetie as she uses her magic to grab the kit and brings it over to her. 'emergency impulse vore victim rescue kit, but if she knew then... But why!' thought Sweetie realizing her best friend might as well be responsible for her current nightmare "why didn't you say something before ... I was left with the worst choice... To either eat my sister or let her eat us all because of this stupid book and you didn't... You knew ...WHY!"shouted Sweetie her voice trembling with fear and blood boiling rage as she yelled at her. "I'm sorry I wanted to but I couldn't Sweetie-" started Scootaloo cut off her voice breaking as she fights back tears. "-WHY!!" screamed Sweetie hatred and accusation in her voice. "Because I couldn't Sweetie you don-" tried Scootaloo. "YOU'RE RIGHT I DON'T UNDERSTAND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS WOULDN'T TELL ME OR GIVE A WARNING!!" Sweetie yelled her voice thundering or at least it was to her shrunken friend's ears, evident by the way she covered them. "Sweetie I- you're not my friend!, friends warn each other! no matter the consequences!they don't... You let this--Sweetie I- no shut up!! i can't even .... I don't even know how I could have become friends with such such a...you!!!" spat Sweetie cutting her x friend off the venom in her voice alone shattering Scootaloo the words of her friend constricting her heart tell it breaks in two. And she finally lets herself go falling on her face and sobbing uncontrollably curling into a tight ball at the bottom of the jar. Sweetie just stared at her old friend in confused pain and hatred hot tears streaking her cheeks as she sits chained to the floor of her sister's dungeon-like basement and tries to contemplate her situation. "Sweetie i'm- -Yeah sure just tell me what to do!" cut in Sweetie not caring what her x friend had to say anymore. "Just open the kit it'll have instructions" answered Scootaloo wincing at her friend's backlash. Meanwhile, inside sweetie acidic gut, a horrified farm filly contemplate whether her current reality was true or not. 'it's just a horrible nightmare yea that's it A. J's probably trying to wake me but why won't I?' thought Apple Bloom wincing with every stroke the devil mare she came to hate gave to her mane as she lies there curled in a tight ball in her captor's Lapp staring at the bone hoof rest her captors other hoof was on frozen in fear. Outside sweetie tries to reason with herself. 'I can't believe she...she knew everything and didn't even care enough to tell or even give the slightest of a warning I... I hate her!' Sweetie screams internally as she reads perhaps the most disturbing instructions she couldn't even believe to even exist. Sweetie now rummaging through the various implements included in the E.I.V.V.R kit/ one bottle of super strength cough syrup, a shot glass, three miniature full body harnesses, one vial of black solvent with a brush of some kind built into its cork, and several small bundles of nylon kite string. Letting out a grimace as she read what each implement was for. Sweetie looks at her x friend angry and unsure how she should go about following the instructions listed. meanwhile at sweet apple acres "where is she it's almost an hour past bedtime?!" said A.J as she paces a near grove in the living room floor. "Something's wrong I just know it I'm gonna go n check the clubhouse!" Voiced A.J worriedly as she runs out the door. meanwhile in a fashionistas basement. "Sweetie?" asked Scootaloo. "what!*" answered Sweetie still upset and giving x friend Scootaloo a pained disappointed look. "Sweetie I-sniffle- sorry I should've told you I just thought- please I-" said Scootaloo. "No Scootaloo I'm the one who's sorry-" started Sweetie cutting Scootaloo off. Letting out a wince Scootaloo waits for Sweetie's full rejection. "It's my fault all this happened if I hadn't of brought that stupid book none of this would have happened" confessed Sweetie realizing the two main denominators in her current nightmare were her and the book, not her brainwashed sister not her tortured friend just the book and her muzzle. scorning herself she tries to think straight the drug and hunger-induced mindset trying to take over saying she should just eat her too there wasn't anything wrong with that decision and tried hard to ignore it but it was still there taunting and sickening as it was. "I'm sorry I would've-!..I... uh what?" said Scootaloo her appease for mercy cut short as she stares at her. "Wait, you're sorry but none of this would've hap-" she said confused and cut off again. "No Scoots we would be home safe... normal if I had kept my muzzle to myself!" said Sweetie as fresh tears tried to flow but her eyes were just to dry. "But if I'd told you -" started Scootaloo cut off again as she looks at the distressed unicorn filly she new as her first and best friend tear-drenched face, matted fur mane and all. "No I'm not arguing your my best friend Scootaloo and so is Apple Bloom please you were trying to tell me something important and I let my anger I had at... myself out on you I'm sorry" Finished Sweetie ashamed at herself her actions angry at her lack of self-control and the scatterbrain she found herself with. "Sweetie I... I'm sorry too... I should've told you... I've already been through this with Dash... Sweetie, I'm what's called a vore-filly an initiate Voraphile....and an.d... Sweetie dash ate me! That's how I now about the E.I.V.V.R kit because I've experienced it!" Scootaloo shakily confessed as the last of her resolve crumbled around her, openly crying again and thinking about apple bloom and the deathly similar situation she was in. "Sweetie I'm sorry we'll talk latter there isn't much time left I'll walk you through it; you have to pull together just for a few minutes and we have even fewer to do this before you..ng" tried Scootaloo wincing as a horrid realization hits her. "before wha. -groan-gurgle- ...ng ml" started Sweetie cutting herself short as the answer sucker punches her metaphorically and fiscally in the gut. 'digest!' she finished internally as she starts hyperventilating. "It's OK Sweetie just try and stay calm- as you can and do everything I say, first let me out of the jar so I can get ready!" said Scootaloo hurriedly as Sweetie shakily does what she's told knocking the jar over in the process. "Easy Sweetie," said Scootaloo as she hits the table, the jar rolling off the table, hitting the floor, shattering, and startling Sweetie. "ahh huh ml" let out Sweetie whimpering as she tries to maintain what little sanity she could as her mind raced faster than her pounding heart. "Its OK Sweetie quickly drink the cough syrup the whole thing no exceptions no matter how bad it tastes," said Scoots as comfortingly as she can as she hurriedly puts on the harness with the size label small and picks up the other small and the Medium harnesses and clips them to her side and the extra nylons to her other side. She new with Rarity being an experienced voraphile there was a chance she might still be alive feasting disturbingly on the ponies already in sweeties gut the thought making her wince and move faster. "uh huh n ml " whimpered Sweetie as she used her magic to lift the Flim n Flam Anti Cough Tonic whimpering as she pressed it to her lips and started to drink immediately chugging it the moment it reached her tongue her favorite toast and jam and puts it back on the table in disappointed emptiness craving more. "OK now take the vial with the black stuff in it and use the brush to- you know what skip the brush just dump half on me the rest on the string's." directed Scootaloo not wanting to waste precious time as she finished the double lock knots on each harness and clips all the remaining pins, clips, and gadgets to the remainder of her harness. "mg, pluh mumble good now let me tie the other end of the string off on this and then eat me!" instructed Scootaloo wincing at the memory of the process of being some ponies snack. "n plasssse I...I dfntt sss wanton ssto" mumbled Sweetie in denial the medicine already having done its job. Numbing her throat, and tongue. "Its OK Sweetie I'll be fine," said Scootaloo trying to be reassuring. inside detrimental fillies, gut sat a rather disturbed farm filly 'How long has it been why can't I wake up?! Luna please I'm scared!" thought Apple Bloom. "It's OK It'll all be over soon Apple Bloom; But I must say I didn't think you would be first, honestly, I thought it would've been Scootaloo?" said the evil white unicorn mare calmly slight supersize in her sickeningly kind voice. 'I just want to go home' thought Apple Bloom whimpering as the bone/ rawhide fashioned lounge chair rocked back and forth in the center of the boiling pool of gastric acid skulls and bones floating this way and that. "Oh quit shuddering your fine, in fact, its an honor to have your friend be the one who eats you mmpleh- " said Rarity cut off as she's showered with something sticky "-cough seems like 'she's' thirsty," she finished as she wiped the substance from her eyes. 'Luna please ah' OCH ng-" thought Apple Bloom pleading with the guardian of dreams. as her hoof slips nearly causing her to fall into the gastric acid letting out a yelp as the stuff burns and devolves the fur off her hoof leaving a second-degree burn in its place yelping she instantly pulls it out falling back and stammering into her friend's evil sister as she whimpers in pain. "You know darling you don't have much time left to decide it's only a matter of a minute or two before this lovely fashioned chair sinks completely. So I'd start thinking off how you want to honor her' there are two options left either dive in head-on or wait for the inevitable; Actually three if you want I can speed things up and put you down myself in my gut that is.-giggle-" said Rarity giggling at their fate like it was just a fun game and not a life or death situation. 'Maybe she's right there are dreams that you don't wake up from Intel you practically die in them!" reasoned Apple Bloom as she sat up in Rarity's Lapp holding her burnt hoof as she contemplated her option's her hoof just going into a numbing throb. meanwhile outside sweetie shook her head at what her friend was yelling at her to do. "mm uh" denied Sweetie. "Sweetie theirs no time I'll be fine just do it!" demanded Scootaloo. she knew if Rarity was still alive then Apple Bloom was probably alive as well. 'come on Sweetie please I can't lose you and her!' she thought to herself. "ml muh whut ifft ii mloossse Yueh stew" mumbled Sweetie not wanting to lose her as well. "You don't have a choice do you want to save her or not?... just eat me.,. EAT ME NOW!" shouted Scootaloo. "ml m uh huh ng mm" answered sweetie slur-idly. as dry tears burned her eyes. "then eat me eat me now hurry!" yelled Scootaloo demandingly jumping and dancing on her hooves wondering if she should just force herself down her petrified friend's throat as the horrid thought hit her ' the drugs they must be warring off she's losing her apatite!' as she reaches her conclusion she suddenly feels herself lifted up "I'll be fine just do it quickly!" finished Scoots looking at her newly carnivorous friend. 'I don't think this a good idea maybe I shouldn't...No she's done this before she'll be mnng... You just better come back Scoots!' thought Sweetie as she lifts the first friend she ever made up off the table and magic's her into her waiting maw 'just two tugs and I pull her back out I just need to stay calm, Here goes nothing... I hope' she thought to herself as she slurped up the excess string and chokes her best friend down the best she could. 'did I swallow I didn't feel it...I guess I did?' thought Sweetie as she watched the rest of the excess string slide and feed into her mouth while she held the long x shaped object the other end was tied to in her magic grip. "Good now just swallow Sweetie it'll be OK just swallow," Scootaloo told herself more thane she told her friend. "come on Swee-ng -gulp-" started Scootaloo cut off as she's suddenly jerked down her friend's gullet. Scootaloo tried not to think too much about the slimy compressed feeling as she focused on her mission at hoof, saving Apple Bloom. inside a churning belly, a filly thinks about her ridiculous and deadly situation. 'OK so if I'm stuck in a nightmare then why does it feel so real?' thought Apple Bloom in contemplation.'wait, you cant feel pain in dreams at least not physically!' she thought, remembering the agony of her hoof as it throbs and burns but was mostly numb now as she tried to figure out what was and why it was happening to her. 'OK just stay calm there has to be a more reasonable explanation!?' thought Apple Bloom as she begins to realize what was happening panicking as she does so. "I don't wanna be soup!" said Apple Bloom realizing that it wasn't a dream and her friend really did eat her as she grabs onto Rarity like she was her last Savior. "Easy darling your going to have to face it eventually," said Rarity as she holds the trembling Apple Bloom in her Lapp. "No I don't wanna be..gulp... Digested!" yelled Apple Bloom as she looks at a floating unicorn skull as it sinks whimpering as it does. meanwhile at sweet apple acres. "Rainbow Dash what are you doing here?" asked A.J as she runs up to her sister's clubhouse. "Hey A.J you haven't seen Scootaloo around have you she was supposed to be at her house so I could pick her up for tomorrow nights wonder-bolts gig but she's not there or here?" asked Dash lying about the reason for the pick up as she swooped down to meet Applejack. "No have you seen Apple Bloom?" said A.J hopefully too worried about her sister to notice the difference in her friend's tone. "No why?... You mean she missing to?!" answered R.D seeing her friends worry. "No...I...I don't know!" answered A.J fearfully. As she wonders where her sister could be at this time of night. meanwhile, in the midst of a faithful rescue mission, a pegasus filly tries to ignore the slime she was covered in. "This is disgusting!" thought Scootaloo before passing through and into Sweetie's gut. "Uaaaaah-cough-cough- bluhhk-ugh- Apple Bloom!?" gasp/coughed Scootaloo as she resurfaced and celled out. meanwhile, in said churning gut, a filly tries to think of something else then what she found herself surrounded by. "I just wanna go home!- -Apple Bloom?- -huh" said Apple Bloom crying as she's held in Rarity's Lapp looking around for what she thought was sompony calling her. "Scootaloo?" replied Apple Bloom questioning if she really was hearing her best friend 'wait how isn't this acid uh' she thought wondering as the idea to test that came to mind. "Over here darling" answered Rarity as she held Apple Bloom and increased her light spell. "Uh, Apple Bloom? Ahh Rarity E.I.V.V.R!" said Scoots turning around as a light brightens calling out the moment she saw Rarity. "Wait" called Scoots swimming over to the thing her friend and Rarity were on and gaging the moment she realized what it was slightly unnerved she stairs at a bone an rawhide throne. "Ah Scootaloo care to join us?" asked Rarity vigor in her voice. "Ahh -E.I.V.V.R Sweetie- Egress Apple Bloom," said Scoots as she used as many terms and phrases used by the secret vore community that she was sure she had remembered correctly. "Oh I see so- Au grand serieux Ex per expert expert-o credite- there are consequences" responded Rarity pointedly. 'OK I think I've had enough this is just crazy first the book then Sweetie eats me now Scootaloo's swimming in acid OK I've officially lost it' thought Apple Bloom as she stairs at Scootaloo swimming toward her covered in some sort of black stuff with a string trailing behind and up. "A’la bonne neur" said Rarity as she used her magic to bring Scootaloo over to her. "Ab-sit invidia!" stammered Scoots in fear as she's suddenly picked up and brought over to her friend's evil sister. "Bien entendu Custos morum" said Rarity as she sets Scootaloo down next to Apple Bloom. Scootaloo looks her friend over before speaking "Apple Bloom I don't have time to explain but you need to put this on and quickly!" said Scoots as she looked her mortified friend in the eyes as Apple Bloom just stairs at the harness in her friend's hooves mentally shut down. 'I don't have time for this looks like I'm just gonna have to play an awkward game of dress up' thought Scootaloo uncomfortably. "OK A.B, just work with me here," said Scootaloo as she unstraps the small harness and begins to put it on, Apple Bloom. 'really just when I think it can't get any weirder it jumps straight to embarrassing?! I can't take it anymore!' thought apple bloom as she begins to struggle and panic against the intruding friend. "Apple Bloom, hold still I'm trying to help you!?" said Scootaloo as her friend started fighting against her efforts. 'theirs no time' she thought "Rarity a little help here- Crise de nerfs?!" asked Scootaloo wondering if that was the best idea. "Aussitot dit aussitot fait" said Rarity in reply. "Ahh" gasped Scootaloo as a beam of magic fizzes by her ear and hits her struggling friend in the face "Rarity?!" chided Scoots before Apple Bloom went limp in her hooves. "Che sa-ra, sa-ra" came Rarity's careless reply. "Ad referendum- a little warning next time!" said Scootaloo grumpily as she pulls Apple Bloom up into a position easier to work with positioning the final shoulder strap. "Ce-te-ra de-suite" said Rarity loosely with a harrumph. "Ugh just shut it and put this on- Ad Astra per Aspera- Fata viam invenient- for sweetie's sake- Amor patriae- Desipere in loco et sic de si-mi-Li-bus- she needs you without you there isn't any -En famil-Le or self security/sanity she's slipping" continued Scootaloo explaining. As she finished the final straps before she grabs the last harness and give 's it to Rarity while she takes the shorter nylon and begins looping the length through the lock knots of her and her friends harnesses. "Your the first thing she's gonna ask me about when we get topside so," said Scootaloo as she put the final knots in the nylon connecting her and Apple Bloom. "Do-c'en-do dis-ci-mus A’ bientot - but I....- A Bras ou-vert's?" questioned Rarity. "A Bras ou-vert's A coup sur " replied Scootaloo in honesty as she looked pleadingly at her. meanwhile outside a filly sits in anxiety as she waits for her friends signal. 'should I pull her back out now it... Is it supposed to take this long... I can't live with myself if I lose her too uh maybe I should just... Oh, Scootaloo please!?' worried Sweetie in thought and fear of what she should do. "Scootaloo please uh" she pleaded as an abrupt feeling caught her attention. "Uh....oh" ' oh Scootaloo...you...you just better be OK!' said Sweetie worriedly ending in thought as she feels two more tugs on the nylon sticking out of her mouth and began pulling. meanwhile, outside in the open world, two concerned pony run side by side. "Where do you think they would've gone?" asked R.D as she hovered alongside A.J on there way, to Rarity's an expressionless look on her face as a new realization struck her gut. 'she wouldn't have she couldn't have their her friends and she knows what A.J and Rarity would do to her I told her oh Scootaloo where are you?' she thought in slight panic. the thought of her adopted sister snacking on her friends and hiding as she regretted the choice of doing so, running through her mind. " I don't know but if we can't find them then we'll have Twi... Twilight she can use one of those search spell things" answered A.J instantly changing directions the moment the idea hit her. 'why didn't I think of that first?' she thought as R.D landed next to her as they ran to the golden oaks library. "Yeah, she'll find them in no time at all no worries" answered R.D as their destination comes into view. a minute later at the said library. "What da ya mean you can't find Em?!" asked A.J impatiently as she paces in front of the purple unicorn mare. I don't understand it myself Applejack it's as if they, well I don't know ponies don't just up and disappear ugh....wait I think I know what's happened but your not gonna like what I have to say" answered Twilight perplexed as a grim thought came to her. 'if their life signatures are this low then something not right' she contemplated the thought of tracing the fillies energy to find the warm yet lifeless body's driving s sharp chill down her spine. meanwhile, a relieved yet uncertain filly hack up the last of the string hopping her friends had made it out in one piece. -cough hack plough- "Scootaloo Apple...Rarity?!" hacked out Sweetie excitedly after pulling her friends out changing tones the moment she saw her sister "you...why?" said Sweetie asking her friend why she wouldn't have just left her to her fate. "Dam-Na-nt quod non intelegunte!?" shouted Rarity with a distasteful tone of voice. "Huh what?" said Sweetie not sure if she had heard right as she stares blankly at her sister. "It's the book Sweetie it does things to you!" said Scootaloo as if it were all the answer her friend was going to need.
hide!"OK so let me get this straight what yer telling me... That... That just can't be right" said Apple Bloom confused holding her hoof out as rarity put burn bomb on it wincing as she began Wrapping it in a bandage. "Please tell me that...it can't be it just can't if she.. ugh are ya seriously saying that...the book... No?!" finished Apple Bloom pushing her puzzler to the max. "I'm afraid so...-darling?" said Rarity realizing that she had a similar echo as her sis and scoots exchange looks before Scootaloo could even think about jinx she noticed her friends face. "Don't you worry about it we've got your back she won't be getting to you without going through us first?" said Scoots in an as reassuring a tone she could manage with her own doubts. "But she's?" said A.B rubbing her bandaged hoof cut off. "I know darling we all put our trust and our faith in her but its the truth celestia's the one who wrote it every bit of the blasted thing too" finished Rarity as she rose to her hooves and brought the confused filly into an excepted but awkward feeling embrace. "So now that were all the same size again well and were all initiated- Now what Sis" interrupted Sweetie before Scootaloo could finish the sentence. meanwhile at the library. "Where did ah go wrong... Why... What....what happened to them! The truth Twilight I'm warning ya please?" said A.J through sobs and clenched teeth. "I'm sorry A.J buh....huh?" said Twilight a feeling coming to her. "I'm waiting, Twi...what r ya... What is it Twilight!" said A.J concerned interest replacing impatience, regret and worry. "I...I think I but that"- tried twilight cut off -" jumping hopscotch Twilight what is it" cut in A.J panicked it had been three hours since they got to the library and thirty-eight spells latter twilight finally got a possible hit. "I think I found them but I could be wrong the spell says there? 'under' the boutique?" answered Twilight hesitantly unsure of it. "Well what are we waiting- wait, Whah 'there' under the boutique?" said A.J as she's making a mad dash for the door before stopping in confusion. "elsewhere a few moments later. "So.. ugh are you, OK sis, you look... -shhhh" shushed Rarity. "What is it sis?" whispered Sweetie a thump upstairs giving her all the answer she needed as her and her friends rushed behind the only available adult in response. meanwhile just a moment earlier upstairs. "soo there? "Under"..the boutique?" said R.D questioningly looking around as A.J looked hastily under everything in sight even a book on sowing Techniques that had fallen out of the fabric scrap recycle Bin she had tossed aside earlier. meanwhile below them. "so what is it ..who's up there?" whispered Scoots restating Sweetie's question. "remember how I said that if and when were found we- well excuse number two sounds good if you're OK with it sweetie?" Rarity whispered in response. "are you sure we have to make an excuse can't we just tell them instead?" asked Apple Bloom in a hushed tone the option of doing either giving her a bad feeling in her heart and gut. "are you crazy!? If your sister finds out now if they find out!" said Rarity in a slightly panicked tone as she whipped around and brought Apple Bloom muzzle to muzzle the filly giving a similar yet freaked out expression with a wince to match it. "Rarity calm down we don't even know if it's them or not it c... It could be somepony else what do we do?!" said Sweetie as she realizes a crucial fact what if it was sompony else as she feels her entire body go cold before her sister drops Apple Bloom and brings her face to face. "I don't know! I.. I. I. oh ahh aaahuah ouh " panicked Rarity as she shook her sister by the withers as she began hyperventilating. "Crise de nerfs" said Scootaloo as she tackled Rarity and looked at Sweetie for support. "meanwhile oblivious to what was below them a group of mares tried to find evidence of their quiry so for unsuccessful. 'where is she oh ugh' Twilight where is she you said she was at the boutique?!" thought A.J yelling in panic. "A.J calm down your driving yourself up the walls literally!" shouted R.D as A.J climbed to the top shelf of fabric falling at the suddenness of the voice the shelves giving out one by one landing herself in a tangled heap of wool, linen, silk, and other choice fabrics the resulting crashing breaking Twilight's concentration. "Seriously girls I- wait huh seriously how 'd I miss... Girls this way I think I see a way down" said Twilight annoyance replaced by hope as her scanning spell found a hidden door only to find it required an unlocking spell 'drat' she thought as her friends approached. "Ah hear ya I'm a' comen around the mountain!?" said A.J in her deteriorating mentality as she ran blindly toward her friend's voice with a piece of fabric wrapped around her face. "A.J watch..." 'I can't take this anymore she's gonna hurt herself think think think uh," said Twilight as a quick thought hit her. "Twilight what'd you do that for?!" said R.D a confused look on her face as she looks at the Unconscious A.J. at that same moment just below them, a farm filly had much the same reaction to her predicament. "Sweetie?!" said Apple Bloom in shock at the now Unconscious Rarity snoozing on the floor in front of them. "What was I supposed to do she was giving herself a heart attack!?" exasperated Sweetie trying to remain calm. "Sweetie she's was the only one who knew what to do!!" panicked Apple Bloom biting her hoof. "Its OK Sweetie, Just do aversion option three, shrink us put us in your mane and hide in the air vent" said Scootaloo as if that was just the answer and not there only option now that there disturbingly friendly mentor was out cold; ignoring her panicking friend for the time being as she tried to keep Sweetie sane the memory of her friend's mad side sending a shiver up her spine 'never again' she thought as she herd Apple Bloom fall over and looked over her shoulder to see her sucking her hoof and rocking back and forth on her back in a fetal position. "Are you sure?" asked Sweetie hesitantly thinking over her sister's third option idea. "Yes and Apple Bloom is a bit out of it so your just gonna have to take my word on her part... we'll be fine you know you can trust me we don't have time for an argument Sweetie do it know I think I hear them coming!" said Scootaloo ending in a hurried tone as she heard groaning and grinding sounds coming from the top of the stairs. "OK?!" answered Sweetie unnerved but initiating the plan. "OK, I think I got it," said Twilight as two shelves of fabric separate revealing a hidden door not wanting to waste time she decides to just break the second lock and head's in horn ablaze R.D following suit. "girls?/Scootaloo?" called Twilight and R.D in unison as they descended the dimly lit stairs gasping at the scene that lay strewn before them jars lying empty or shattered covering the floor lighting her horn finding and turning on the only light switch her gut lurches left. "why," said R.D looking at several familiar feathers laid about lifelessly bellow a set of chains and shackles on the wall across and to her left and a torn strand of pink fabric below the set next to it as her gut flips upside down and knots. 'scootaloo I...no' she thought as she walks to the center-left portion of the room to find a third set of shackles laying next to a steel rectangular table a tuft of white fur caught in the hinge of one of the shackles its chain anchored to the floor behind a matching chair while empty jars and Tupperware littered the table and floor underneath. meanwhile, upstairs a mare is coming to her senses. "ugh mmm where ah'm I? gasp! Apple Bloom!" moaned A.J staring at the sealing gasping as the memories flooded her mind quickly shooting upright and noticing an open secret passage before running down only to be met with a scene straight from a horror film. at that same moment, a filly hades hoping her presence wouldn't be noticed as she tried to remain calm. 'just stay calm and everything will be fine' Sweetie told herself as she holds onto the jar that she found to put her friends and sister in. Her back against the grate of the ducts fan as she keeps her friends hopefully temp housing arrangement tightly embraced against her pounding chest. meanwhile just outside the vent and to the left, a purple unicorn scans the area bathing it in her magic "Twilight?" said R.D as she looked back at her friend with pleading eyes. "........." "Apple Bloom?" came the call from upstairs before a detrimental A.J made it to the bottom of the stairs only to stop cold. "Twilight, where's, is sh-sh-she ain't hurt right?" asked A.J as she goes over the scene before her, blood running cold the moment her eyes met the left far corner 'no no no no no' she thought as she nearly plows Twilight over pushing her aside and running to the corner in response. 'how could she' thought Twilight in disbelief not understanding how Rarity the element of generosity could've done something as sinister as eating her own sister but her friend's sisters/sisters best friends. 'she wouldn't of....but there the only full-sized signatures all the others register as micro or mini' she thought as she scanned the room repeatedly there wasn't any fresh sing that she had left the room either it didn't make sense. 'Rarity why she hasn't even gotten her mark why?!' thought R.D as she picked a broken feather off the floor and just started her heart nearly falling out of her chest. meanwhile, inside a ventilation shaft, a filly tries to stay as quit trying to stifle her whimpers. 'keep it together just oh no' thought Sweetie as a dreading sensation tickled her muzzle. ahh aah....sitting as still as possible with a hoof to her snout she lets out a small sigh and listens to the conversation it was A.J, R.D and distressingly enough Twilight. 'no why her why does the world hate me....and my friends' she thought absentmindedly taking her dominant hoof off her muzzle and putting it on her chin in thought instantly regretting it.... -ahchoo! sneezed Sweetie as her blood stops cold. at that moment a pegasus was walking by the vent. "wait did you hear something?" said R.D stopping the conversation ears at attention. "hear what I-shh" shushed dash cutting Twilight off as A.J being that she lived next to the everfree honed in on the sounds general direction an air vent. inside the vent, sweetie dreaded her mistake. 'no no no no please just stay calm everything- wwrrr -snag gagh! throng-ring buzz-click-whimper/moan' thought Sweetie pleadingly as the ducts fun started to spin snagging her tail just as it was about to reach full speed entangling her tail and jamming before a built-in breaker shots it off sensing an obstruction all the while she let out a yelp/cry of pain moaning as she thinks 'oh why I don't wanna be food!' hearing the sound a.j jumps into action. "Apple Bloom!!?" said A.J ripping the vent cover off and shove/shimmying her way in before R.D could even think about blinking. "ahh mmng nono no p-p-pl-plea-se I don't wanna be lunch!" let out Sweetie as A.J's head came into view in the corner thanking the stars her intruder was too big to make the turn. "Appl-" started A.J heart dropping in, multiple ways at what she's greeted with "Swe- wheres- its OK Sweetie where's Apple Bloom?" asked A.J fearing the worst as tears started to fall looking at a small mortified tear-drenched face, sweaty n matted fur disheveled n ruined mane of one of her sisters best friends. looking closer she noticed her tail was tangled and stuck in the ducts fan taking in the full scene she noticed jars of familiar ponies as well as one jar concealed in a death grip embrace a mess of two-toned mane covering sum as well as the left side of her face bloodshot fear filled eyes staring back. 'what do I do I could shrink her no that would leave the duct open and she's too big to reach me I... what do I do why me why now?!' thought Sweetie as she pushed herself as far back as the grate would allow. meanwhile, outside two pony's are les\ft confused looking at there friend half sticking out of the ventilation shaft. "A.J did you -is Scootaloo in there!" asked R.D before rushing over in hope demanding to know who she'd Found. 'why can't I get a clear reading I can't even tell who she's found' thought Twilight frustrated as she makes her way over trying to get a better scan. meanwhile inside said duct a filly rambles out mumbling. "S'il Vous plaît Restez dos Custos morum Enami Restez dos Restez dos Audi alteram Es tut uns leid Bar-m-herzig-ke-it!" said Sweetie pleadingly as she began to sob. A.j just stared most of the multilingual sentence flying over her head. 'what did-did she just talk the way I think she did...hear the other side mercy but that's something you say when...oh no no Sweetie please no you couldn't of but she's the only one left she'd had to of... no' thought A.J her hope, dropping as she tried to give an as assuring/dead serious I will hurt you if you don't spill now look she could muster '3. 2. -better start talking Sweetie" said A.J through her teeth and under her breath as Sweetie murmurs before saying something she didn't expect. "Je jure nigh Manger a-mi Je Manger sœ-ur S'il Vous plaît Dum vi-vi-mus vi-va-mus" balled Sweetie as she gripped the jar tighter as and looks pleadingly at A.J her chin resting on the lid. "huh ugh Sweetie you don't have ta talk that da way were secluded just-just talk normal wh-wh-where's Apple Bloom" said A.J biting her tongue knowing she needed to be gentle no matter how hard it was or how loud the voice in her head told her to just eat her fighting this she tried to think straight before she's surprised a second time a request this time one she knew quite well. "Custos mo-rum" said Sweetie trying to make her signature puppy eyes face but finding that her eyes burned too much to manage for long losing herself to more sobs as she tries to maintain a calm/strong demeanor also failing. "huh, Sweetie I-" responded A.J cut off as the plea is repeated. "Custos mo-rum swear please I can't do this alone I just please I je ne sa-is pas I found Rarity's book! she-she-she I mng mng I ate rarity-her hung mgn instead! ng ngsco-sco E.I.V.V.R. applom uhn mm" confessed Sweetie before her last shred of strength gave way and she started rocking back and forth crying as she tightened her grip on her friends/sisters jar. 'she..... Rarity you monster she's your sister why-why wouldn't ya just take er ta twi have er whip er memory..... I have to get to the bottom of this' thought A.J heartbroken at what she saw and what she feared might of happened to her sister. "Swe-Sweetie just... I swear Custos mo-rom please just tell me what-where-Apple Blo-oo-oom mng ng I need ta know I huh- gurgle/groan" said A.J realizing she wouldn't get anywhere she made the oath starting to cry stopping as she hears the sounds of hunger 'oh no... wait that's not me- oh please no' thought A.J as she realizes the tables had stacked against her one vorefillies and initiate voraphiles had little to no control over the hunger/urges and impulses two she was stuck and within range of a hungry recently turned cannibal unicorn. one second earlier 'I know she's the element of honesty but Rarity said she's been a voraphile two years before the wedding when ng why why'd it have to be my sister I... I. I don't trust her I don't even know her anymore I need to be sure' thought Sweetie as she tries to think of a way to test A.J's trust and honesty as her stomach starts to twist and groan and she freezes in place. "-huh-groan gurgle- uh Sweetie yo-you-r-your still in there right Custos morum?" asked A.J the roll of who fears who doing a complete 180. "minty-no I won't I so -groan- hungry," said Sweetie in a drag monotone a blank stair across her face as her thoughts raced ' no I won't I can still fight it oh why can't I just stay full why' thought Sweetie as she fought with herself. 'come on A.j think save yourself you know what she's done it's obvious what happened no no I control me not you shut up Apple Bloom wouldn't want that she'd want me to help her not arrgh' thought A.J fighting her own urges and decides what to do help her no matter the cost. "Sweetie listen, sager cube it's, not you," said A.J as Sweetie levitates three jars and takes out the first victim levitates the pony in and swishes her tongue around and swallows while simultaneously taking the second out as she stares blankly ahead. ' come on A.J think she looks more brain dead then R.D was at Pinky's last vore party that's it!' thought a.J trying to think quickly remembering a past experience as she sees Sweetie absentmindedly eat the second pony and sees cheerily was next before she blurted pleadingly Ex per expert expert credite Il est tout en vous êt es tête il est le livre ne laissez pas vous contrôler-vous vous contrôlez pas le livre' seeing that she had her attention she continues "you make the final choice there just suggestive persuasions ya can't ignore em but ya can control em" finished A.J as Sweetie's eyes dilate slightly tears flowing free like a river. "A.J answer me... is she in there who is it... please tell me it's Scootaloo- A.J!" said R.D demanding an answer slapping A.J on the flank and getting her face bucked in response as well as a muffled reply. "ah mnmed scwisers awnd dwont wuch mah frank awgin," said A.J wiggling to try and get a hoof out. "aghmeh ow fine be that way don't expect me to come running when you need me next time," said R.J grumpily as she begins to pace back and forth. 'what did she say?' thought twilight " A.J what did you say?" asked twilight louder to be sure she'd be heard. "Ahmed scwisures !" came the reply clearer this time 'scwesures?.... scissors!' thought twilight deciphering the slurred mumble. "It's OK Sweetie just tell me what happened ah can't take it much more please just tell me" pleaded A.J using every shred of herself to hold herself together tears flowing freely. "How can I even trust you and don't say because of your element either!?" asked Sweetie demandingly as she held the scissors in her magic threateningly. "I I... I don't know Sweetie how can ya, she probably told ya everything I've... Please, I ng just wanna see mm..m'ah sis mmng again I I... I'll do anything!" pleaded A.J sobbing as she lets her head rest on the vent floor in a small pool of her own tears. 'it's almost like she cares it's sickening... No I know she cares the only way to fake what I've seen is if she's been lying her whole life if theirs any love I know from experience it's a sister's love for there sister theirs only one way to test that and it comes down to how she reacts' thought Sweetie in contemplation. "A.J?" asked Sweetie getting her attention. "Yeah Sweetie ah promise ah wont do anything that could hurt ya is she did ya...mmng ng ah mmnnn why I'm sorry sis I thought if mng ng ah ah no o o!?" said A.J in response losing herself to more sobs as she looks pleadingly at the only one who knew what happened to her sister. ' that's enough for me just one more test' she thought "A.J can I trust you to keep me safe from twilight and R.D please Pas tout est ce qu'il semble Cutie mark croisés toujours... Custos mo-rum please" asked Sweetie hoping the reaction would be on the plus side. ' so she's really gone I...I'll kill her cook her inta stew I'll-no no no shut up that's not what she'd want me to do I'm so sorry Apple Bloom it's all my fault' fought A.J internally fighting with herself deciding to do what she knows her sister would want her to. "Yes it's what she wouldda wanted me ta do I swear Custos mo-rum" 'flying colors' thought Sweetie holding back her emotions as much as she could before asking her final question before she'd fully trust her. "Now one more thing can you show mercy I don't mind punishment as long as she live's through it in honesty from the nightmare and fact that it was either eat my friends or have her eat us n the fact that i ate her instead before losing it my self and eating them any way being in that shut down mindless Crise de nerfs I just lost my sister state of mind I can honestly say she completely lost it when she found that I knew and shut down or something but please ill tell you the entire story latter but fore now I need you to hold off on torture and whatever because i lied to see if I could trust you Non fat-al-ê Cutie mark croisés toujours De profundis please Pas tout est ce qu'il semble she had no idea what she was doing tell after so try not to be mad at least not now i..." explained sweetie pleading for her sisters mercy before revealing the jar in her death grip. 'what's she talking bout... Er, sister's alive why I'll...' thought A.J before gasping at what she saw "ahh apple bloom oh I thought I lost-RARITY! Ill..rrrrgh agh humph" gasped A.J a look of heavy relief quickly turning to rage the moment she saw the white unicorn before shifting to a mix of the two as she sees that they were all sleeping it was a touching scene minus what she'd done with Apple Bloom's head resting on Rarity's foreleg the mares other foreleg holding the filly close while Scootaloo sprawled out on top using Rarity's mane as a makeshift pillow while Apple Bloom used Scoots tail as a blanket with Rarity slightly curled around Apple bloom and the mare's tail covering them both. "Please Enami will you help me keep them safe especially from twilight I want her out of here or I won't come out please Custos morum" asked sweetie pleadingly. "Of course but don't think ah'm automatically gonna help her out if dash goes ballistic though " answered A.J sucking up tears while new tears found their way through. "I know thank you I I ...mng ng mmn mmn don't know whah ta do" let out sweetie unsure of herself. "You shouldn't worry much the jar ya got em in repels and defuses magic not to mention it'LL only open from the inside they should be fine in honesty it took twi an entire week ta get one open after she'd accidentally closed it" said A.J assuringly a slight choking giggle at the memory catching her breath as her sobs start to subside. "A.J are you trying to get out?" asked Twilight seeing her friend wiggle like an earth worm. "Ah hung," said A.J as clearly as she could. "Do you need help?" asked twilight readying her magic. "Rrhh sigh ml-uh " came the reply "OK Rainbow Dash grab her leg I got the other one," asked Twilight as she grabs one of A.J legs and her and Rainbow started pulling before being yelled at. "Ahh, stop-stop!" shouted A.J feeling like her head was about to pop off. "What whats wrong?" asked Twilight as they stopped pulling. Her shoulders stuck tight but head visible. Its fine now just stop pull'in listening twi she's real scared Rarity's done an spilled everything bout us she's terrified of ya and she wants ya upstairs now ah already swore so please just wait upstairs" said A.j explianingly demanding that she'd leave. "Whuh ...sigh OK," said twilight now leaving to go up, her head held low. "Easy rainbow hear er out first," said A.J standing in front of an irrational and fuming Pegasus. 'She's protecting her' thought a completely feral Pegasus. "for all the damn cider A.J she ate your sister!" Fumed dash as she tries to get around the Apple former to make a meal out of the terrified unicorn filly missing a rather large chunk of tail a short fury stub in its place. ?"I can't take this much longer," thought a cowering sweetie as she hid behind A.j in the air vent. "Now rainbow just hear her..." tried A.J cut short by an irrational athlete. "Hear her out?, she ate Scootaloo she ate your sister too how are you so calm she-" said R.D cut of by pleading shaky shout. "Nonfatal nonfatal- yes I ate em but they're okay- E.I.V.V.R! ...Scootaloo volunteered for Apple bloom n sis they're all fine!" Blurted sweetie. "Oh really so if they're all ok then where-" started R.D annoyed and unbelieving before being cut off. "It was sister initiation 23 I chose option 3 I ate her but I lost myself to the drug's and I ate Apple bloom I almost ate scoots to but she got through she told me about E.I.V.V.R and volunteered she got rarity out too please she lost it when she found I knew she wasn't herself even afterward I literally had a mentally shut out sister please mercy she wasn't thinking straight when she came back she was all most suicidal afterward she helped me initiate bloom and then she heard you and panicked I had to knock her out an...and then we didn't have any option so I please don't heart her" quickly explained sweetie before presenting the jar. 'She ate her sister her sister forced her into, Scootaloo-E.I.V.V.R they... ' thought R.D as she listened before the jar comes into view. "Scoots-argh Rarity??" Blurted R.D. 'ill rhhgh ill-sniffle squirt!" She finished in thought before overpowering Applejack. "Mercy!" Managed sweetie before being grabbed and nearly crushed by an overwhelmed cyan pegasus. "Omphnghhhrrmmng" let out sweetie now in a choking hug as she's lifted in the air. "You're not going to hurt her...me-us?" Asked sweetie In a confused choked voice. "Oh don't worry she's in doe punishment as are you F.Y.I Apple initiations are Apple clan only she may have sworn but that's only her there's a whole clan gonna be on you and your sis I don't have to lift a hoof." Told R.D. ? "ugh come on why can't I get a good scan?" Groaned twilight as she paces in front of the secret passage. ?"Huh what oh hey gummy," said pinky her pet resting on her muzzle. "It's two thirty in the AFTERNOON!!" She exclaimed seeing her clock. Running to the window to find out it was still dark. "Huh" she pondered as she looks to see her clock was wrong giving a tap the hooves jump to the correct time two thirty-six am and sighs "but why do I feel like-though-" she continued before her pinky sense kicked in. "Sweetie belle oh and I pinky swore I wouldn't let anything happen to her oh some Godmother I am" she scolded herself as she runs down to the bakery and grabs the bam ware frying pan and runs out the double western styled doors to raritys.? "So you'll explain to them what happened?" Asked sweetie. "Ah'll see what I can do thing is words all ready out but I'm sure if I send a message now at least good number of em will get it" explained A.J telling sweetie and rarity who was all most full size apparently returning fillies and full grown ponies at the same time made for singularities considering they were all the same size. "And I'm going to have to find you some tail extensions you look dreadful" came rarity looking at her sister's stub for a tail. "Seriously you just tried to eat me not ten minutes ago when you and I finished initiating bloom and all you can think about is my tail!?" Ranted sweetie offended by her sister's socialistic prioritization her right eye twitching before she tackled her sister and got muzzle to muzzle. "I have half a mind a creepy sickening side of me and right now it's telling me too mm" Continued sweetie before her sanity slides and her new additional personalities take hold of her "to eat you slowly and mm m painfully as I chew and tare inside your succulent flesh and drink your sweet bloody mm ugh lips mm and" continued sweetie as she moaned and bit off a small chunks of her sisters lips before forcing herself off fighting with her split personalities "no no no get the buck out of my head arrrrgh" she fought before- "She slipping quickly!" Said Scootaloo hurriedly as she looks at bloom before they both tackle their friend. 'There's no way, ah ain't gonna go through that again' thought Apple bloom recalling her friends sick twisted perversely insane dark side before making her move.
calmer watersIt had been several hours of explaining mainly because of how long it took to convince a certain pink pony that everything was fine and had already been handled. "Sis, what's going to happen to Apple Bloom and Scootaloo?" Asked sweetie concerned about her friend's fates. "Well darling I can't say that they aren't going to be punished but I doubt that R.D and A.J will do anything too rash and as for you darling I feel sorry for you, you may not have known this at the time but refusing a meal has consequences" responded Rarity soothingly as she and her sister Sat in the basement discussing what would most likely be happening in the next few hours. "But it was my fault why are they going to be punished... it was my stupid muzzle?" Asked Sweetie a face of worry drawing her sisters attention. "Oh darling I know this is hard but trust me when I say that R.D and A.J would never do anything that could truly hurt them" coed rarity trying to be reassuring as she rubbed her sister's shoulders soothingly. meanwhile at sweet apple acres. "Ow" whimpered Apple bloom as A.J pulled her by the ear. "Wh, where are ya taking me and why am ah blindfolded?" She asked as she feels her sister guide her to where she didn't know 'where's she taking me it smells like cider' -she thought as a slight stream of drool runs into the center of her left ear- '-bleghk' she groaned as her sister stopped. "Sigh I'm sorry sugar cube but there just ain't much choice now" 'no thanks to rarity not keeping her sister's muzzle in check!**' answered Applejack ending in thought as she bent down to open the Apple cellar trap door a subtle and hunting creaking startlingly her sister. "A.J !?" Whimpered Apple bloom suddenly realizing where she was. she had heard stories of how filly knappers would take their victims to their basement and no matter what she told herself she couldn't shake the feeling that she should high tail it. "Ah know ah don't like it either sugar cube. watch your step now" said A.J solemnly as she guided her sister down any chance at escape now gone as she takes her sister inside. elsewhere in a cloud mention on the outskirts of ponyville. "Uh dash what's gonna happen to bloom her sister wouldn't just up and eat her right?" started Scootaloo Nervously, feeling guilty. " please tell me I couldn't live with myself if something happens to her knowing that I might have been able to do something why couldn't I just tell them why'd I just 'argh' what's wrong with me there's so much I could've done but I just let it happen and what about sweetie her sisters a complete statistically perverted monster sweetie's probably already half-way to bones by now and it's all my fault!!!!" Cried out the Orange Pegasus her tough front failing as she begins to break down and sob into her idol. "well If that's what you think then I've failed you miserably" stated dash the phrase catching the younger off guard evident in the teary eyes that shot up to look at her. "Listen, squirt and listen well cuz yall tell none ya hear ah been bucking. Trees long as ah can r'ecall any mother fu**** mess 'with my sis has bitten off more'han they can chew" spoke R.D in as heavy a Sutherland accent she could manage, giving all the answers needed evident from the half crying/laughing Pegasus as she brings the mess in for as comforting an embrace she could manage in the awkward position. "Sniffle mmm ahh thanks D. I just couldn't Baer loosen my friend's," said a now more emotionally stable Scootaloo. "I-wzzrrring" Started R.D interrupted by an alarm clock before looking at her adoptive sister with a sad yet predatory smile "-well sigh times come so since it was more my fault you kept your mouth shut rather than knowing what to do in a situation like that hence I should have taught you to just find me or something like that I'll let you pick the potion and punishment yourself" "You know I kinda wanna try soft v insertion vore ritual number eighteen ageless fertility full-length full size and not the short version but the one where I get to see you from the inside while I gorge myself and..." started Scootaloo Nervously as she rubbed her forelimb with her hoof. "-!Whoo you mean geez scoots and I thought I was the sick one, wait are you sure you know what you're saying squirt?" Asked a flustered dash showing a rather dark blush. "If it means you take me in and the potion regresses my age whilst adding that age to my life expectancy then yes?" Said Scootaloo in a nervous plea. "Uh yeah" was all that the cyan Pegasus could say as a little more than eager and perverted Pegasus licked her chops an even bigger sadistic predatory smile across her muzzle causing her idle to give a nervous seriously look. meanwhile below the boutique Sweetie Sat wondering what would have happened had she not come back from the clubhouse. "Sweetie, I'm sorry but the book as sickening and wrong as it is rules are rules darling now I'm stuck with the fact that I have to punish you but because of my actions you have to punish me as well, Now I've chosen something that will be beneficial for the both of us though you still have to punish me afterward sigh" explained rarity sighing she levitate's a strange bottle of blurry white bubbling liquid and placed it in front of her sister. "Rarity?" Asked Sweetie nervously looking at what smelled like nothing she could determine. "it's a muscle relaxant though it won't paralyze you it will make your body feel like a pile of bricks" explained rarity sighing she makes her way to what appeared to be a closet hearing her sister gasp when she reveals a second room hidden behind the exceedingly simple door. "This, this room is very special not only for the fact that it cost me around two point three million bits in total cost but the fact that it has over six thousand plus enchantments that keep any form of dust pathogens INSECTS etc. Out but will keep my dearest succulent morsel in tell din..he hem sorry bad habits die hard anyway with the ritual I've chosen I'll not only be able to protect you but also make you and I a thousand times stronger and closer together than ever before Mahwah haha hack cough heh heh hehe... squee" told rarity creepily ending with an evil Laugh only to wind up choking on it finishing with a nervous giggle she looks over to see her sister cowering in the corner of the room. "It's ok she's just lost a couple of marbles nothing to get freaked out about oh crap she's looking at me, SHE'S GONNA EAT ME!!!!!" Thought sweetie trying to assure herself that her sister wasn't going to hurt her failing miserably and panicking. "Oh my I'm sorry I just got carried away with the moment darling I...ill give you space but just listen, I oh, I've really scared you didn't I sigh," tried Rarity sighing as she makes her way to her sister stopping a little ways away from her noticing her sisters fear. "d.d.don't eat me!" Let out sweetie taking a peak with one eye she sees that her sister had stopped a few yards away from her and was laying on her stomach a soothing smile letting her know she wasn't going to feast on her, yet at least. "S.s.s. Sis?" Asked sweetie shaken. "Yes, darling" responded Rarity in a comforting tone. "What are you going to do to me?" Asked a death shaken sweetie as she got as small as she could make herself. "a.J?" Asked Apple Bloom nervously as she takes the final stair down. "Ah know sugar cube but its unavoidable ah'm not one of the heads of the Apple clan vore community there's not much ah can do" Said A.J walking over to one of four giant cider barrels and sliding several wooden disks and rings unlocking the secret door as the giant barrel opens revealing a series of rock may sound underground paths. "Apple clan vore community?" Asked Apple Bloom before she's startled by the grinding groan of something. "Shh be completely silent sugar cube if ya talk in here, well newbies and initiates ain't allowed ta talk unless spoken to and if you do they may make me eat ya or worse" explains A.J silencing her sister. "What!?" Exclaimed A.B stammering back and falling on her rump. "Shh shh easy it's gonna be OK but no matter what ya can't say anything please promise me not a squeak and don't take off the blindfold only certain ponies are allowed ta talk an see the leader's please Bloom ah'm begging ya ah can't face losing ya, what they'll make me do" said a.j emphasizing the importance of being silent and leaving the blindfold on as she caught up with her squirming sister and pinned her to the ground. "Ah.ah ah'm scared w.whats"- stammered apple bloom cut off- "shh easy ah'll see what I can do they may make me punish ya and ah hope so because I won't do anything that'll, well kill ya-easy it's gonna be fine but whatever ya don't talk unless spoken to and don't take off the blindfold please ah can't even say how important that is pinky promise please Bloom ah'm begging ya" exclaimed A.J pleading that her sister would do as told as she takes the mortified filly into an embrace the trembling mass fighting back from the death grip. elsewhere in the basement. Five hours after the confession. "So when this is over I can go see my friends!?". Asked sweetie questioningly as she hopped it was sum nightmare And her friends were fine as she slowly walked towards her sister in the strange glowing doorway. "Yes, darling but we both need a good bathing I'm just glad I can't smell anything I don't even want to think about it!" Answered Rarity truth be told she lost touch with smell hours ago as she lured her younger sibling closer into what she hoped would be a friendly trap. "Sis-your not gonna eat me right!??" asked a nervous/traumatized sweetie slowing her pace as she waited for confirmation and assurance. meanwhile in a cloud mention with a cyan pegasus. "Ahhh heerp urrp" R.D belched out a red puff of potion after mist having finished the vore ritual as empty bottles of different varieties littered the cloud bed a distended gut giving an occasional wriggling. "Ugh hey dash how long does this ritual take exactly?" Asked an oddly calm meal in a voice that started to sound, board. "Well let's see mm nn huh well it takes a unicorn about twenty-eight to thirty hour's and huh well that's gonna be tight" voiced R.D realizing a tight schedule fit. "What what is it!?" at that same moment below ground "Take one more step I dare ya" warned A.J standing protectively over her sister as Apple Bloom held blindly onto her right forelimb like a vice. Things had gone south fast despite her sister's silence the entire council had accused treasonous actions against her saying she had convulsed with the unicorn hoard a group that had plagued their community for generations. "Y'all know the incident, what I've done to keep her out of this morbid and murderous community" continued a.j holding her ground. "Ya dare doubt a' member of the Apple clan an element" fumed a.j looking at her sister she makes her choice. "Ah call on the judgment of the high elders let my Sis ta' me!" Yelled a.j albeit respectfully as everypony cloak an all went silent and looked toward four figure's in brown and red clokes who then began communing with themselves before looking at her sister and spoke. "And what do you suggest as clemency?" Asked the elders in unison the vocal effect sending a chill down her spine. "That she be given a chance to prove herself and I be the one to tend, punish, and care for her" responded a.j as she held her sister closer and waited for the response. The room was Erie as the elders discussed before there final judgment. "She has six moons tell final judging if she fails to meet standards she will be your punishment"-slam* with the mallet struck and judgment made a.j sighs. "the leader's have spoken..." A.j Shuts out the sound of the adviser as the underground council hall began to clear out. Meanwhile, a more certain unicorn filly inquires further on her sister's intentions trying her best to relax. "So I just relax Intel I'm all soft and my fur's like silk? Isn't this just another bath?" Asked sweetie as she soaked in the thick clear white liquid in an eight-foot-wide circler pool built into the floor of the room the liquid giving a faint glow. "a very special bath" came rarity's reply as she did her mane. "Hey, I thought you said we couldn't dry off or it would make the Ritual Harder or even fail?" Complained Sweetie looking at her own Wet and unkempt mane. "No darling I said if your mane was dry it would make it harder that's why your soaking dearie." Said rarity as she comes out from the bathroom her mane sporting its natural curls.' now that your marinating I can get started' she thought giggling as she sees her sister give an all to familiar pout. "Oh, so what happens when I'm done soaking?" Asked sweetie pulling a hoof out as the clear oily liquid fell back into the pool in strings. "Well, how heavy do you feel you remember that spell I taught you right?" Asked rarity as she joined her sister in the thick liquid the liquid gaining a brighter glow. "Like I haven't slept in days and I'm out of energy but full of energy at the same time but not as tired either yet sleepy?" Answered sweetie questioning her choice of wording as she felt a lot happening around and within herself. "Wonderful darling now you can still use your magic right?" Rarity asked as she rested her neck on the rim of the tub and watched her sister carefully. "Yeah why?" questioned sweetie looking at her sister. "Because we're going to start Darling," said Rarity as she began casting the first spell on her sister carefully watching for negative feedback. "Oh OK so do I cast my spell now?" Asked sweetie as her sisters magic washed over her as its warm soothing embrace calmed her she began to relax. 'this feels much better' he thought as the soothing feeling almost made her melt. "Yes darling now you cast your spell on me remember to start slow and ease your way into it" answered rarity watching as her sisters shoulders relaxed and fell below the thick liquid 'oh darling I'm going to hate myself for this I just hope your not too scarred by the end... if only I had enough potions you'd sleep through the worst of it' she thought as she sees her sister gain a soft smile brightening her mood though it did little to help her Guilt. "Hmm ok" sighed sweetie as she began casting the spell her sister had taught her. she giggled as her horn felt fuzzy and her magic tickled as it washed over her sister before becoming taught as her sister began pulling it in and around her the fuzzy feeling becoming warm and slightly prickly. 'Now to start the ritual stage one soul binding step one, synchronize are ora's' thought rarity as she began the ritual going over each stage and step one by one as she completes them. "Rarity?" Asked sweetie as she began to feel tired yet somehow full of warm energies. "Shh darling just keep concentrating on my energy... you can cast the second phase now sweetie" answered rarity as she feels her sisters magic begin to blend with her own before her sisters warm energy pulled it in and it became taught opening her eye she sees the rim of the tub glow with symbols seeing that they were in order she began to merge her and her sisters magic ora's 'there now step two life energy's' she contemplated as she began the next spell "careful now rarity one miss step and you either absorb her soul or her entirely!' She told herself as she felt her sister's life drainage being careful to leave enough in her sister to ensure she wouldn't die and began to pull her own life energy's and blind them in the center of the tub making sure she and her sister had an equal amount in them. she took a peek to see the swirling energies in the center of the warm liquids turning back to the spell before dividing the warm blinded energies between her and her sister the fuzzy feeling bringing a smile to her face. "Rarity I feel funny giggle like I'm weightless yet pulled in every direction at once!?" Called sweetie questioningly giggling at the strange feeling. "It's fine Darling just relax and concentrate" soothed rarity as she leveled out the energy's between her and her sister and now feeling one with her sister's life force's she began casting the third spell. 'OK now stage two psychokinesis' thought rarity as she began casting the telekinetic linking spell being careful not to mix memories as she delved into her sister's mind and began linking her and her sister's mentality. "OK, darling now let your mind go blank" tried rarity telepathically. "Ok" replied sweetie. 'I feel like I could stay in here for Day's' she thought to herself as she felt loose and relaxed all her worries forgotten. Rarity hearing her Sister's thoughts finalizes the spell a mental pinch signaling its completion. 'Good night rarity I love you sigh mmm' mentally Droned sweetie tiredly. "I love you to Darling it will all be over soon sigh," said rarity watching her sister's chest rise and fall 'now that Your sleeping I can begin stage three I just wish I didn't have to put you through this but it's either that or I have to, oh I can't even bring myself to think about it, it's so dreadful but at least I can heal you my sweet little marshmallow' she thought as she knew the ritual would make her sister stronger.
scrambled"Moolbelppa moolbelppa! Ouh?" Said sweatie happily as she tackles her friend. "Uh a.j?" Began applebloom as an eager friend nearly hugs her to death before gaining a confused look. 'She's. She's fried?she's a complete mess! Rrrggh rarity!!' Thought a.j fuming as she watched, sweatie happily yet oddly tackle her sister. 'What's wrong with her, why's she looking at me that way? oh no is there something wrong with my face!' Questions sweatie as she looks at the strange scrunched raised eye brow look her friend was giving her. "Moolbelppa?" She asks again the strange look only growing more confusing. 'Why what the hay did rarity do to you!?' Thought applebloom as her friend blurted nonsense a little slower this time though. 'Can't she speak did she lose her voice?! Oh no why, what did she do to you?' Thought sweatie as she felt her nose burn. "Moolbelppa?" She asks as she's bringing her friend in for a hug. 'What's wrong with her?' Thought applebloom as her friend embraced her and began sniffling. "It. Its ok ng..emph" began applebloom before the air is forced out of her longs by a massive squeeze. 'She,oh why..auh' thought sweatie before nearly crushing her friend at the sound of her voice. 'That's it,that's wait moolb?wait bloom, she's not fried she's scrambled?! Ah think, gonna have ta listen ta know fur sure' contemplated a.j as she watched her sister gently stroke her friends mane. "Era ouy thgirla?" Asked sweatie sniffling as she felt her friends warm embrace. 'Ah can't just let er talk and not say anythin rrgh rarity why' thought applebloom trying to think of how she'd help her friend as she felt her sob and sniffle into her shoulder. "Its OK sweetie yer fine now I'm fine um ya remember when we tried getting are marks as translators" soothed apple bloom getting an idea . "Sey I rebemer ouy tog eugnot tghf splgh by hlu nm? Rrgh uhmph?!" Spoke sweatie as her tongue knots. "Ya remember how long it took us ta, well talk right?" Continued applebloom as her friend spluttered. "Asdblop sdrop splease muy thung numnb!?" Tried sweatie failing. "U murk snow ut u id" slurs sweatie as her friend giggled. "Peter piper picked a smek a spleh bluh blouse whah?" Tried applebloom tying herself up in the process "ugh snout sme stew" finished bloom unable to keep a straight face as she began in contagious laughter her friend joining her. "Sngggk haha ya two sound bout as bad as pinkie n poison joke!" Laughed out a.j getting up and bringing the two over tight in embrace nuzzling her sister. "BwA ha ha yeah total spitty pie moment huh ow hay no kicking in there!?" Laughs R.D before she felt her new aficial sister give a rather painful jerking. "ah ha ha oh heh auh sigh sorry sigh that was funny though, hey can I talk to sweetie and apple bloom now yawn auh sigh please dash? asked scootaloo yawning as she apologized. "If you can stay awake long enough" said dash with a light challenge. "Now hold on that depends on the girls" broke in a.j but before she could finish she's interrupted "Ah still have a few thing ah wanna ask yawn her" cut in applebloom the contagious laughter replaced with yawns. "w,Ate scootaloo us ear?" Came sweetie's scrambled response as she shoots upright nearly catapulting applebloom off as she sat up. "Yeah she's around?" Said a.j not sure if sweatie could handle one more detail looking at her 'in a heap sister' for support. "Uh sweats um dash, we'll yeah?" Added applebloom not sure how she should word it. "She.. Uh ng ate Or gulp v?" Swallows sweatie nervously not sure what to hope for. "Yeah she huh wait you know bout th's stuff?" Said applebloom surprised getting a nervous nodding in response she continues. "....v..." She murmurs hearing a hard swallow in reply. "its OK sweats um dash could ya go over there so I can make sure she's OK?" asked scootaloo hopefully. "Uh um that, that's just wrong ng" said sweetie as she began to make her way over but stopped when she realized she wouldn't have to. "Yer handling th's stuff a lot better then ah did" said applebloom as she watched R.D make her way over. "Oh trust my I not" murmured sweetie as dash sat down in front of them. "Alright five minutes course I wanna take a nap yawn" said dash yawning as she felt her sister squirm inside her once more. "uh hehe hey sweetie um well other than being board I'm actually quite cozy in here hehe" started scootaloo nervously not sure what to talk about. "Uh hi so my sister ng gave birth to meand now your uh, when are you um doe?"tried sweatie warming up as she felt her friends embrace. 'Why'd I let her chose this?!' Thought dash mentally berating herself as she watched applebloom hug sweatie. "whenever I want, wait your sister did what?!" responded scootaloo taken back. "Uh ng um so you want to come out now? Heh heh" diverted sweetie just wanting to forget the experience. ".." "Scootaloo?" Asked sweetie as she put her ear against Dash's gut as she felt her friend wriggle. "um yeah, that. well I don't want to come out now because if I stay in longer my wings might get bigger" said scootaloo nervously. "Uh but, but I want to see you and, I can't.. I want you" stammered sweatie trying to wrap her head around the reasons her friend would stay in such a place. "its OK sweats I'll be here, its just I don't want to miss any chance I might have at flying" said scootaloo feeling selfish. "Ya think it'll work?" Asks applebloom as she puts her ear against Dash's gut as she continued hugging sweatie. "uh yeah, I mean if I just came out now I might not get another chance, I mean its not every day you get to be reborn n whatever" said scootaloo not sure of what she should say. "......if you think it'll help I'm OK with it, I just want um you out here with me...an, I really hope it works" said sweetie as she felt her friend wriggle again. "Yeah scoots I think it's worth a go,um just don't take to long I need ya out here with me" added applebloom trying to be supportive despite what she wanted. " thank you guys!, don't worry I won't be to long I promise it yawn sigh" said scootaloo happily as she felt tired. "Yeah uh scoots?" Asked sweatie as her friend drones off. "Did she really just fall asleep?" Asks applebloom out loud as she listens for her friend to answer her. "Come on y'all I think I yawn agree with scoots" yawned a.j as she looks at her sisters as she hugged sweatie. "Yeah yawn I think I could use a nap" added dash. "Uh a.j where's my sister?" Asked sweatie nervously as she let dash lay down. "She's out side, uh ah'll go get her fur ya" started a.j as she made her way to the door. "Um could you not tie her.. I mean thanks" said sweatie catching herself as her hooves felt like they were tied together knowin that they weren't meant rarity's were. "Yeah sh..uh... Ah'll get er?" Responded a.j a bit caught of guard as she opens the door and goes out. 'how the hey did she know that?!' She thinks as she closes it behind her. 'Sigh too close rarity said I can't tell anypony just keep it together its just, oh who am I kidding I'll be a nut case by tomorrow!' Thought sweatie nervously as she felt herself guided into a lying position. 'Come on sweetie just hang in there' thought applebloom hopefully as she noticed sweatie's dead pan stair. 'Please don't break again ah just got ya back' she thought as she guided her freshly moldable friend to lay down watching as sweetie just went with whatever movement she guided her into. 'I just need to relax she's fine I know she is because of that freaky binding ritual! Breath in breath out sigh I'm safe warm, my friends are OK and so is sis' sweatie told herself as she felt herself pulled in tighter in her friends warm and calming embrace. 'How'd she know that? Did..sigh just a few days an everythin handled' thought a.j as she comes out of the fort and closes the door behind her. 'Why what was I think... Was I thinking? Oh sweetie I'm so sorry I wish you would've just eaten me at least then you wouldn't of gone through as much' thought rarity scorning herself. 'Rrgh ah can't believe ya... Ah can't believe ya would do this ta yer own sister' thought a.j as she walks over to a motionless hog tied unicorn. 'At least I know that she's safe if the ritual worked that is, I'll just let her sleep she probably doesn't ever want to see me again' contemplated rarity as she felt like she was in a warm embrace. Sigh perhaps I can get one of the girls to put...no stop thinking like that oh who am I kidding huh... Well at least I won't be hear fur much longer' she thinks as she heard somepony coming toward her and looks over to see a.j's expressionless face a few feet away. 'She won't be like sweatie was, would she?' Thought dash watching as the Two slept like two pees in a pod. 'At least she's doing better now' she thinks as she felt her sister move once more as she watched laying on her side as sweatie and blooms chests rose and fell. 'What's going to happen to me? I don't want to be a cannibal!' Thought sweatie as she let her friend hold her. 'Ah don't wanna eat ponies especially my friends n family! I won't eat ponies ah won't!' Thought applebloom defiantly as she held her friend tighter. 'This has ta be some kind of nightmare it just ain't right!' She thought denying anything as truth. 'Why, why us?' Thought sweatie and the more she did the more she thought of their fates. 'Wait she wouldn't would she?' Thought applebloom thinking back to sweetie absentmindedly sleep walking to gnaw on her sister. Worried her friend might sleep eat her. ' but wait my sis is at least three time her size would that even work? Ah was shrunken when she went an ate me so?' She thought a little more at ease the more she did. 'Maybe ah'm just, ah just don't know anymore, what if she shrinks me in her sleep! no stop thinking like DAT she's my best friend she was drugged; but she still ate me!' She continued perturbed at the memory an mear thought of it happening again. 'Why, what's wrong with me why'd I put my sister through this?' Thought rarity as she staired at one of her friends. "Hey?" Said a.j looking at the mess that lay before her. "Ya in there?" She asked as her friend just stairs at her. 'What's she going to do to me?' Thought rarity as her friend addresses her. 'Oh please just get it over with' she thought, waiting for whatever her friend was going to do with her. "Yer sis asked if I'd come n get ya, and if you try anythin ah'll make ya pay regardless ya hear?" Said a.j annoyed she was doing this despite herself. But it was for sweetie and her sisters sake's and she'd made a promise one she planned to keep. 'Please just get it... Wait she..?' Thought rarity caught off guard by what was said not believing it. As a.j began untying her. "Yeah I think she needs ya ta answer somthin fur er" said a.j noticing the distant look her friend had as starts unwinding the rope from rarity's legs. "And I think she might be a sleep eater" finished a.j raping the rope up and putting it over her shoulder watching as her friends legs just go limp and slumped to her chest. Sighing she grabs rarity by the tail and drags her to the forts woven sheet and pillow door. 'She wants to..question?' Thought rarity as she feels herself dragged across the floor not caring as she tries to think of what her sister would ask. 'She wouldn't oh I hope she isn't' she thought before working the nerve to ask. "A. A.j?" Tried rarity nervously as she found herself by the forts door. 'Sigh why... huh?' Thought a.j going to open the door stopping as she hears her name murmured turning to see a pleading face looking up at her. "Ah don't know she didn't sound mad yet again she didn't show anythin really" said a.j answering the most likely question. "And ah think it would be better if ya walk in yerself" she finished seeing a few tears streaming her friends cheeks as she thought of what she might be able to do in her current position. 'She's probably hungry uh oh my saddle bags or I could just offer myself, no it's her decision she needs me and I'm not going to leave her not like that, OK rarity you can fix this oh why?' Thought rarity as her mind started to race. 'Come on say something!' She berates herself trying to think of what she would say n do when she saw her sister. "I.. I saddlebags" she murmured as she started looking around still on her back. 'I don't know why but ah feel like ah'm safe right now; but why shouldn't ah feel like... well uh sigh what's going to happen now that we're.? Sigh why, ah'm I gonna have to eat ponies or well what ugh this is so confusing?!' Thought applebloom wondering what she and her friends lives would be like after everything was said and done. As she listened to her friends heart beat the rhythm making her feel safer and calmer for a reason she couldn't put a hoof on. 'At least we're alive I don't think ah'd be able to go on if somthin happened to them' she finished as she began weighing the good things. 'She, why'd she oh rarity you idiot! Rgh I'll... I..I love you oh please' thought sweetie the earlier experience coming back to her. 'Oh my ng she, wait are we still sisters or what?' She thought as a few unfriendly things started toying with her thoughts and views of her sister. Gripping her friend tighter the more she thought about it. Before she felt something stroking her mane. 'So am ah a cannibal now or um I ate ponies so...huh?' Contemplates applebloom before she felt sweetie tense up to hear a small whimper escaping her friend. "Its OK sweats I'm still here yer fine," said applebloom soothingly as she began stroking her friend's mane and holding her tighter. "I'm scared I I I don't know anymore what if I ng I I I ng sleep?" whimpered sweetie as she felt like giving up. "It's going to be OK" assured applebloom soothingly in hear friends ear as sweetie berried herself into her more. "Shh just rest I'm still here scootaloo's, well fine just try an rest" finished applebloom soothing her as much as she could as she felt sweetie loosen up a bit. 'But what if I eat you?!' Thought sweetie trying to stay awake but finding it harder the more her friend comforted her. 'Please? I'm hungry I don't want to sigh eat yawn you mnn sigh' finished sweetie thinking she had said it out loud as she drifts off into nothingness. "Shh yer fine everything will be fine yawn ah love ya sweats sigh yawn good night mnn sigh" soothed applebloom before she started dozing out. "Everything's fine yawn sigh" she droned out falling asleep herself resting her head in sweatie's mane. "Here, now ah'll check on em while ya figure out what yer gonna do," said a.j hoofing rarity her saddle bags, rarity grabbing them with her magic looking more distant the canterlot. '......?' Oh what am I going to do?' Thought rarity as she watched a.j open the forts door and quietly go in. "Mmmm oh I know, no uh maybe just talk,sigh OK she's sleeping now so I better get ready ouh she's starving I haven't felt that kind of hunger before oh I hope I brought enough' she thought using the physic connections with her sister to determine what she'd need as she goes through her bags taking out a few Jared pony's cucumber sandwiches, marshmallow treats, chocolate, and other choice treats. "Oh I hope I have enough Verity's she can be such a picky eater sometimes" said Rarity as she thought of how hungry her sister felt to her. 'Oh I hope you knew what this entailed scoot I really do' thought R.D as she gave her belly a few rubs. 'At least you'll have your friends to talk about it' she thought opening her eyes to see Applebloom embracing sweatie using her mane as a pillow. 'Sigh I can't wait till you get your flank out here I wonder how long you'll wait yourself' pondered R.D as she heard familiar grumbling. "So?" Asked R.D not bothering to look knowing the grumbling anywhere. "Sigh a mess" murmured a.j not bothering to go into detail as she made her way over to her sister and sweetie. "Sigh sleeping?" She finished noticing the soft slow breaths of the two fillies. "Yeah, is she still uh?" Responded R.D asking her own question. "Better just silent an such ya know?" Said a.j looking towards dash and the door behind her as she sits down. "Think she'll recuperate?" Asks R.D as she gives her stomach a short pat resting her hoof over it. "She better and soon cause ah need er thinking straight so ah can give er a!..sigh why'd she do this what could've made er think that this was...what better?" Responded a.j rising her voice slightly before lowering it not wanting to disturb her sister or sweetie. "I don't know but what I did is when scoots found out I knocked her out and imprisoned her for twelve hours ate her tell she's almost soup before i finally wised up and even after she told me everything was fine i still kept her locked in the house for three daysdays" responded R.D listing the irrational things she did. "And even during all that not once did twilight cross my mind" she finished letting a.j ponder for a bit. "You know I love scootaloo like my own hek after this she will be if she wants that she's my sister and now by blood she my dogh,..ter oh celesta why'd I let her talk me into this?"continued R.D just realizing what she was. 'I'm not ready to be a mom!!' She screamed internally a light whimpering escaping her lips. 'She's right it's easy ta snap under that kind of pressure just the thought of losing her makes me slightly less rational' thought a.j, as a strange sound made it to her ears starting low but growing looking towards dash, was all the answer she needed. "Didn't think things out did ya uh wait she convinced you huh well good luck n all but ah gotta go n check on rares?" said a.j nonchalantly as she made her way out. 'I hope she's ready by now' thought a.j opening the door and heading out closing it behind her she turns around to find the strangest assortment of packables littered in front of her from jars to sandwiches."rares whatta ya doing?" Candy's to fruit. "Sigh need help?" She asks looking at a dishevelled unicorn currently trying to fit everything back in her saddle bags. 'Oh is it enough, OK wait how'd I fit all this?' Thought rarity not noticing a.j tell she glanced in her direction. "Oh hey um darling um hehe squire" stammered rarity shoulders jumping a bit from being startled. "Sigh ya want help?" Asked a.j motioning to the mine field of treats and food that laid strewn before her. "Heh heh um maybe?" Murmured rarity still trying to fit everything. "Sigh yes, I have no idea how I even fit it all in the first place" she finished letting a.j bring her things as she put them away. "So do ya know what her gonna do?" Asked a.j grabbing a few things and putting them away. "I I'm oh wh... A.j am I sane?" Asked Rarity not looking towards a.j as she filled the left side of her saddle bags. "Uh sigh yer as sane as ya can be with all this, yer crazy but not insane," said a.j thinking of the time she'd known her. as she finished filling the right bags with packables closing the flap. "Mn wh...how bad is it, her I mean how is she up top?" Asked rarity looking down her voice cracking. "Uh she was a bit off apple bloom helped she's sleeping now ...sigh ya scramble er rares?" Responded a.j "A.j the truth...ng don't mg" stammered rarity closing the left side of her saddlebags her hoof shaking as she does. " sigh ok ok she was more maulable than clay whatever position ya put her in she kept it eyes straight forward but she's fine now applebloom got her out," said a.j explaining "Sh...dea...sho...wh ng I horrid in horrid sister what w..I wasn't thinking why mg" stuttered rarity her voice choking as she began shaking. "Its OK she OK now uh she wants to see ya she's sleeping now ah think she needs ta see a familiar face when she wakes up" countered a.j knowing the drama she'd be there for hours as brought rarity over to the fort as she used her magic to bring her saddlebags over. 'Oh Celestia I'm a mother I... just relax your cool how hard can it be she's been with me for six days in my house just go to the foster center and sing a few peppers not that hard breathe oh celesta why'd I let her do this, wait did she plan this oh you little mng sigh' contemplated dash as her thoughts raced not noticing the two joining her company. "Sigh just find where yer comfortable and get some rest ah think she might be a sleep eater so we're gonna have ta deal with it n all but fur now just let er rest" whispered a.j as she made her way to lay next to her sister rarity doing the same putting her saddle bags in the corner next to a.j's. 'Sleep eater? Oh, dear' thought rarity as she moved to lay down next to her sister bringing herself to rest as close as she could manage without disturbing her. Oh rares ya really gone an screwed up this time sigh just three more days an everything 'll be fine' thought a.j lay down next to her sister bringing herself to rest as close as she could manage without disturbing her sibling. Resting her eyes as she listings to her sister's soft light breathes she wonders what her sister could be dreaming if she wasn't having a nightmare as she slowly allows herself to drift.
prologueIt was a seemingly normal day at carousel and rarity was as busy as she ever was. her sister was over helping again as she remembered she'd left something important in her room. “Sweetie Belle in my room in my vanity drawer there's a list of orders and clientele would you be a dear and grab it for me?” asked Rarity as she looked at her sister redoing the display as she swapped old dresses out with new ones. “OK, then when you're done with your orders you can teach me how to knit” answered Sweetie excitedly happy to spend time with her sister as she sat next her watching her sister placing a new dress on the display. 'then we can finally have some time to ourselves she's so busy it's like she never gets a break' she thought going over the past two days having an entire month with her sister. “Knit?” repeated Rarity questioningly. looking at her sister puzzled. "You know you promised me yesterday that you would teach me knitting remember?" questioned Sweetie, wondering why her sister seemed ill-informed of this fact as she sat looking at her confused. 'she honestly forgot I told her yesterday!' she thought surprised. 'she must be super busy but when doesn't she forget?' she finished as she thought of a possible reason her sister would forget. "(Uh oh right oh I'm sorry Sweetie but)- these orders can't wait,” finished, Sweetie as she felt like her sister was avoiding her. ‘Sigh she always forgets’ she thinks as she sighs inwardly. "Yes. I. I'm ..sorry darling I just got caught up I'm sure if I..um. How about tomorrow” said Rarity as she noticed the disappointment in her sister's eyes. ‘I have to do something about this workaholism..thing Twilight keeps mentioning’ thought Rarity scolding herself as she set up the dresses to where they showed their best colors. “OK,” said Sweetie half-hearted. ‘sometimes It feels like she’s avoiding me but why?’ she thought as she heads up the stairs. ‘I wonder what Apple Bloom and Scoots are doing right now’ pondered Sweetie as she opens her sister's door, heads over to her sister's vanity and opens the top left drawer. ‘Maybe they're doing something fun’ she thought as she grabs the clipboard and closes the drawer. ‘ I'll ask Rarity if I can go see Apple Bloom’ voiced Sweetie as she heads down the stairs. "Rarity is it OK if I go and see what Apple Bloom and Scoots are up to." Asked Sweetie giving Rarity the list. "Um sure darling just be back before supper you’re saddlebags are in my room next to my sewing supplies” answered Rarity.as she takes the list from her sister looking it over not even looking her sister's way. 'now if I finish today I should have enough time by Saturday to finally spend a day with her why I always get extra orders when she visits is beyond my understanding at least it's good for business' she thought as she watched her sister in the corner of her eye. “Thanks, Rarity,” said Sweetie as she runs back up to her sister's room- ‘I wonder what Scoots is doing’ -wondered Sweetie as she grabs her saddlebags. ‘Rarity sure did a great job fixing my bags- uh?’ thought sweetie and as she grabs them a book falls and hits her in the muzzle- “oww,” - she let out as she picks up the book. 'V.O.R.E? What's vore’ she questioned - ‘huh’ - she shrugged putting it in her saddlebags and heading out. ‘Maybe I should ask Rarity...no from the way she’s got it marked it looks personnel’ concluded Sweetie going down the stairs. “By Rarity,” she called back, heading out the door and closing it behind her. Fast forward “so what is it ya wanted ta show us Sweetie?” asked Apple Bloom as she sits next to Scoots in their clubhouse. 'she looks nervous I hope it's nothing that will get us in trouble' she thought as she waited for her friend to explain what she was hiding. “It's a bit disturbing I really don’t know if I should even have it... to be honest,” said Sweetie. looking nervously at her friend's as they sat in a circle. what i'm I doing rarity going to be mad at me? ' she thought worried and embarrassed she had taken something she figures she shouldn't have as she felt a pit sink in her stomach the book giving of an ill feeling energy. “come on Sweetie it's not like it's her diary,” said Scoots. making a passive gesture with a hoof as she looked curiously at her friend's saddlebags. 'can't be too dangerous if sweetie has it' she thought as she sat next to apple bloom eager to see what her friend brought. 'she looks embarrassed is it something like what I found in my aunt's room that was disturbing I didn't need to see that' she thought as she sweetie went through her saddlebags. “-sigh- OK” sighed Sweetie as she presents the book in question. One minute later. -Heumlk..mmmm- “OK that's just. Just WRONG!?” exclaimed Scootaloo as Apple Bloom and Sweetie hurl out of windows on opposite sides of the clubhouse while Scootaloo just gags. 'well it's not something you shove but I wouldn't be bothered if she shoved this into a blender' she thought as her friends lost their lunch. " who in Equestria would….who in Tartarus could do... Mmm hum blah...who's the author?” asked A.B throwing up a second time. 'that's so sick' she thought the thought and image making her hurl again. 'i've never read something so disturbing in my entire life there's something wrong with her sister' she thought as she caught her breath. "Uh, it doesn’t say I checked” answered Sweetie. Catching her breath and walking over. whipping the spittle from her mouth as the taste of stomach acid made her want to throw up again. 'why do you have such a thing what the hell are you into' she thought not sure what to do as her view of her sister changed. “You said that you found this in Rarity's room right?” asked Scoots. Sweetie putting the cursed book in her saddlebags and looking shyly at her friend. 'if it's rarity's that means sweeties in trouble big time I should get rainbow dash' she thought concerned for her friend knowing rainbow dash didn't take kindly to her snooping around when she visited her house. “Sweetie? You know what that means don't you?” Asked Scootaloo as she sat thinking about what she was reading curious about why her friend's sister would have it. “um,” said Sweetie not wanting to answer. as she sat down in the same spot as before. “It means yer sis is a cannibalistic monster!” exclaimed A.B angrily as she looked at sweetie in disgust. 'i can't believe rarity has something so perverted and sick in er room what the hell is she doing when she's all to herself like my sis does every so often reading her fancy novels and leaving a mess on her bed' thought apple bloom as she came to sit with her friends. “MY SISTER'S NOT A MONSTER!” yelled Sweetie in denial. Meanwhile back at the boutique. “Have a nice day dear,” said Rarity as Fluttershy exits the boutique. "Well now let's see Fluttershy -grrrrgle- oh be quiet,” said Rarity going over the day's checklist when she starts to feel hungry. “Hello → yes come in" answered Rarity as a new customer comes in the boutique. “ Welcome to Carousel Boutique, where every garment is chic, unique and magnifique. How can I help you?” asked Rarity. As the customer comes in. "hi, I was passing through PonyVille on my way to whitetail wood to meet up with my friends for a hiking trip and my pack ripped. I asked around and I was told you might be able to help?” said incline explaining. 'wow, what a nice place she's beautiful' he thought looking around admiring the lovely mare in front of him as he walks up to her. "Well, you certainly came to the right place I was just about to take lunch. Why don't you come over here and I'll fix it right up” said Rarity. ‘this is perfect I haven't added a hiker to my collection before I wonder if he tastes like s'mores. no Rarity stay strong you're doing so good. you know you want to hmm. s'mores no, I..I...I oh screw this stupid diet I'm starving’ thought Rarity fighting her hunger-induced impulses and failing as she stitches the pack “they're good as new” she said watching her new prey. "So how much do I owe you?” asked Incline. “not a thing darling” answered Rarity casting a spell while he looked the other way. “really? Wow you're so generous, thank you so- humph,” said Incline before the spell knocked him out. “No ~~thank you~~,” said Rarity as she heads to the secret basement that no pony knew existed. levitating incline. ‘Oh, I wonder what I'll have you with dates dried fruit oh maybe a Keish giggle’ thought Rarity reaching the hidden door behind the storage room fabric shelves. Back with the crusaders. “Are you sure about this” asked Sweetie. looking at her friends uncertain of the idea.'their crazy I can't shrink her what if I hurt her' she thought, scootaloo's idea playing on her mind as she looked through the book finding what she was looking for as she ignored everything else. “I'm positive if you're sister can shrink a pony I'm betting you can get your cutie mark in uh well what would you call a pony that shrinks ponies for a living?” said Scoots not sure what to call the talent as she held the book to a specific page. 'what was it called there has to b a name for it' she thought as she encouraged her friend. “I don't know it looks really complicated,” said Sweetie questioning the idea as she goes over the spell in the book uncertain of herself. 'what if she gets squished or we lose her in the grass there's way to much risk' thought sweetie as she went over her friend's idea to get back at their bully. “Maybe Twilight can help?” suggested Apple Bloom as she grabbed an apple from a branch that needed to be cut just outside the window. 'know I know twilight can shrink easy she can literally lift an Ursa and put it back into the woods' she thought as she went over the memory of how snips and snails brought an Ursa to town. “what if she...what if I accidentally make diamond explode! or melt or turn inside out!?” asked Sweetie a worried expression on her face. not hearing her friend as she panics about the idea while Apple Bloom lays the apple on the floor for Sweetie to test out. “Relax you’ve been practicing with Twilight for what a year I mean you're going Mondays and Wednesdays now as well," said Scoots. "What's the worst that can happen- fleer nm-pop/squelch/splat-sizzle,” said Scootaloo as said apple turns into burnt applesauce and explodes all over her face and the clubhouse. “bluhhk,” said Scootaloo as she wipes it off. “What if I do that!” exclaimed Sweetie pointing a hoof at the said mess. Eyes wide pupils small the thought and image of her school bully suffering the same making her stomach twist into a knot. Back at the boutique. “Let's see ah perfect now where's that book oh right upstairs I'll get it later, besides it's not like you're going anywhere, giggle you look absolutely divine,” said Rarity as she adjusts the lettuce tuxedo with her magic keeping a keen eye on the mortified Incline as he looks around the room he found himself in, Jared ponies on shelves and in hamster habitats, with wheels? Only to notice his attire. “What did you mmm. mmm” said Incline cut off by salad dressing. "Oh hush I don't like it when my food talks back,” said Rarity looking down at her hoof work and silencing him with salad dressing. Incline was now no bigger than a pygmy mouse easily able to fit inside a spoon. Meanwhile with twilight. “No..no..no no, where is it!?” said Twilight asking no pony in particular as she paced around the room searching for something, the library was a mess as usual. "Here Twilight,” said spike finding the scroll she was looking for. "Thank you Spike?” thanked Twilight. spike letting go as to avoid an all too familiar cliche was twilight levitated the scroll to herself. "So what are you doing Twilight?” asked Spike as Twilight goes over the tome in question. "Celestia wants me to reverse engineer a very complicated spell” answered Twilight. Back with the crusaders. "Come on Sweetie just one more try,” said Apple Bloom encouragingly as she looked at the mess of apple related disaster around her, curious towards the possibility to shrink something keeping her interest in sweetie's chance abilities rather than angry at the mess. "I’ve already tried seventeen times I can't do it,” said Sweetie dejectedly as she frowns never really into the idea of shrinking diamond in the first place. 'i'll just hurt her why am I even trying why do I listen to her she's always the one who drags us into some crazy stunt' she thought as she sat and looked to see more apple muck everywhere. "Well just give it one more go” suggested Apple Bloom as she tried to encourage her friend setting another fruit down in front. 'she's getting close I can feel it' she thought eager to see the look on diamonds face when they towered over her shrunken form. "I just can't.” repeated sweetie head down. 'i just can't risk it i'll ask my sister about the book tomorrow' she thought, feeling a little insecure as she felt her horn buzz feeling fuzzy with the effort. "come on sweetie you've never given up on anything before, ” said Scootaloo. “yeah, why, start now?” finished A.B “I..i..i just don't want to end up hurting any pony” exclaimed Sweetie getting frustrated at her friend's persistence as she raised her voice. "Just- OK one more try!” said Sweetie agitatedly her friends pushing her buttons as she gathered her magic and tried again with little difference in the outcome... “...Is it gonna stop?” asked A.B as she watches the apple shrink out of existence. “Ugh.. see” groaned Sweetie giving up as she looked the other way embarrassed by her lack of ability. "Oh, come on you guys! that was better, this time, one more tr-no!” exclaimed Sweetie cutting her friends off and turning to face the other way. "Maybe Rarity can help?” asked Scootaloo gaining looks of shock and confusion from her two friends as she gave them, a plain face. " I know dash has a few things left to teach me but I can't just tell them what we do together it personal and it feels weird talking about it' she thought as she noticed the looks she received thinking back to the last crazy trust exercise she did with her idol. "Are ya kidding me ya just read the book how can ya suggest dat?” asked A.B dumbfoundedly as her friend seemed to disregard the implication true or otherwise... 'she crazy but that's just scootaloo she's always like that' she thought as she gave her friend a quizzical look. "You said it yourself Sweetie she's not a monster” reasoned Scootaloo trying to convince her friends as she looked to the disappointed filly. 'i wish I could tell them but i'll just tell rainbow dash once she picks me up tonight' she thought as she thought of a way she could help her friends. “Uh, she eats ponies” stated Sweetie flatly not believing it herself as she pawed the floor with her hoof. 'now that just sounds wrong why do I feel like this I know that's not true' she thought not sure what to make of the book as it made her uneasy. "Yeah but that's just an assumption we don't know that for sure" argued Scoots. As her friends just stared at her eyes laden and in frowny-faced annoyance. Meanwhile in Rarity's basement. “Mmm.mm,” said Rarity wiping the blood and dressing off her chin with a personally fashioned handkerchief. “Grrbrrgle- guess I'm still hungry,” she said getting up and grabbing a nearby jar. 'Mmm divine' she thought as she looked at the tiny pony hungerly. "Oh Carrot Top nothing goes better with salad than carrots right- giggle,” said Rarity moving back over to the table taking carrot top out and placing her on the plate and adding more salad, spinach. olives, cucumbers, and two more ponies. "You're a monster!" Yelled carrot top before Rarity's maw took her in and slushed her around before chewing and swallowing. Crunch-crunch hmm.mm "yum thank you, dear, I take that as a compliment" Said Rarity after swallowing. Back with twilight. “-boom- giggle well that hasn't happened to me in a long time are you OK Spike?" said Twilight after her magic failed for the second time but this time exploded. "Yeah… uh what are we trying to do exactly?” said Spike asking the question as he stayed at a safe distance. "I'm trying to help Celestia, one of her students at C.S.G.U managed to somehow turn the entire cafeteria into solid gold And Celestia thinks I’m the one to help figure out why and how, but there's no actual spell all I got are the students notes and descriptions of what she was doing when her magic flared out of pressure and anger,” explained Twilight as she went over her own notes crossing things off and circling others. “Oh,” said Spike as he thinks ‘no wonder it exploded the same thing happens every time she gets like that only she explodes rather than turning into gold’ thought Spike remembering her firey maned friend. Back with the crusaders. "It's getting late I should be heading home,” said Sweetie sheepishly as she looked outside to see the sun starting to set. 'i just hope the book has nothing to do with reality' she thoughts she made her way to the door stopping as she feels a pit in her stomach. "By Sweetie see you tomorrow," said Scootaloo and A.B. as they looked at each other noticing the nervousness in their friend's voice but not sure what to do. 'she's scared but I doubt its true ponies don't do that it probably just some fetish like with my sister and her pregnancy fetish I guess she just really wants a foal' she thought as she waved good-bye. "what's wrong ?" asked Bloom noticing Sweetie's hesitance taking a tentative step forward. "I...I...uh...could you walk with me I...I...I'm,” said Sweetie hesitantly as she stands by the open clubhouse door. 'why am I scared she'd never do anything like that it's just a book' she thought as she felt afraid wishing her friend could walk home with her. “Sure thing we’ll both come with ya,” said A.B coming up next to her and giving her bump on the shoulder as she tried to ease her friend’s worries. 'plus my sis can be forgiving she won't just ground me if i'm a bit late I just have to be honest and she'll forgive me' she thought as she walked over to her friend. "Yeah the CMC always stay together” added Scootaloo joining them as they head to Rarity's walking past sweetie with an assuring smile. 'i need to get Rainbow dash and tell her she has to know about this then she'll help me' she thought as she made it to the second ramp looking back up as her friend followed her. "Oomph,” said Sweetie as her saddlebag gets caught on the door causing her to trip. 'dumb bag' she thought as she moved to get up. "You OK Sweetie?” asked Apple Bloom helping her friend to her hooves as sweetie dusted herself off. 'that was rough but she stronger than that come on sweets I gotta get home myself to' she thought as she checked to see if her friend was ok. 'she's fine' she confirmed as she went to exit noticing her friend delay. "Yeah my bags just got caught on the door," said Sweetie picking her saddlebags up noticing the small tear. "My sister's gonna..mm,” said Sweetie cutting herself short not sure how her sister would punish her anymore. 'this is ridiculous pull yourself together' she thought berating herself as she noted her sister would just have to restitch her bags. "You're fine she won't uh. She won't punish ya over that, Come on Sweetie the sun's starting to go behind the hills if we don't go now I'm gonna be late,” said A.B cheering Sweetie up as much as she can. 'wow that book really got to her maybe I should... Nah she'll be fine she always pulls through' she thought as she encouraged her friend offering her support. "Come on guys you're gonna make me late and Dash is supposed to pick me up tonight for... not important I just don't wanna miss it let's just go,” said Scootaloo eagerly. elsewhere back with Twilight. “Come on almost there ha uh oh -boom,” said Twilight as she concentrates and sees the apple turn gold before exploding sending golden muck everywhere. “Darn it almost had it if it's not... What am I doing wrong then?" Exclaimed Twilight asking herself as she wipes the gold applesauce off her muzzle. Back with Rarity “oh my I’ve lost track of time! Sweetie should be home soon and I haven't started dinner yet!” exclaimed Rarity as she hurriedly closes and conceals the basement door and runs to the window. “Oh good she’s not here yet but she will be!” said Rarity rushing in to get started on dinner. Meanwhile “come on Scootaloo pretend it's a race or something we're gonna be late” exclaimed A.B as Scootaloo races through ponyVille as every pony already was or was on their way indoors as the streetlights come on in a crisscross pattern. "theirs the boutique we're gonna make it whoa oomph, Scoot!?" Exclaimed A.B after Scootaloo hits a rock sending them flying to land in Rarity's trash cans as Rarity herself was levitating them to the curb at a distance mind you the mare had an even more grotesque look as she let out a startled cry when three fillies come flying at her. “wah ha aaaah” let out the delicate mare avoiding the flying mounds of trash. “Oh my girls are you alright?” asked Rarity as she looked to see she was still clean seeing her sister wasn't as fortunate. 'oh dear looks like bath time ugh she smells like last weeks septic disaster' she thought as she set the trash bins down. “We're fine” answered Scootaloo popping her head out of the trash can tongue out in disgust as her friends moaned in response. "Well you might as well get cleaned up when you’ve hosed off come inside and use the guest shower,” said Rarity as she picks up their saddlebags “-thump- huh,” said Rarity picking up a filth covered book as she used her magic to clean it off ‘no Sweetie no oh why, I told you time and time again to watch where you stuck your muzzle oh Sweetie now.... I don't have a choice!’ thought Rarity as a single tear stained her cheek. Placing the book back in her sister's saddlebags she picks up the other bags and cleans as much off of them and her sister's as she can using her magic. Back at Twilights. “Um Twilight,” asked Spike as he watches twilight concentrate seemingly oblivious to his existence. "Yeah, Spike?" Answered Twilight half listening as she took notes. "it's dinner time should I start something?" Asked Spike. "Um, I, uh, dinner uh, I'm sorry what?" Asked Twilight to distracted by her work. "I said it's dinner time do you want me to make you something?" Repeated Spike "oh yeah I'm in need of a break anyway” answered Twilight getting up and heading into the kitchen. Back with Rarity "if and when you three are done in there I have dinner ready” said Rarity pacing thinking ‘why...how oh I should’ve been more careful how am i going to explain this to A.J and Rainbow Dash and the others we all have vorarephilia but they said they were off limits and I agreed so long as they agreed to stay away from Sweetie oh what am I- wait I know just what to do and how to do it it's perfect a whole new bonding experience!’ thought Rarity weighing her options. and getting a devilishly exciting idea. “Ready!” said Sweetie Belle as she and her friends came down the stairs looking refreshed with a small smile. 'at least I'll have them this is ridiculous i'm scared giggle just relax I'll ask her about the book tomorrow' she thought as she smelled dinner in the kitchen glad her friends would be spending the night. "Ah, girls good now I'll explain everything tomorrow so don't you two worry about A.J or dash being mad OK, dinners on the table come, and remember you two are guests so manners,” said Rarity ushering them to the table as Sweetie follows suit. "Thanks, Rarity we haven't had a sleepover at your house yet this is going to be fun,” said Scootaloo taking her spot at the table as A.B and Sweetie do the same. “Don't thank me, thank Sweetie she convinced me. And I expect you to be on your best behavior,” said Rarity levitating four plates of food out and onto the table in front of Sweetie herself and each guest. “we almost did but you had to cancel” finished A.B adjusting her seat as she remembered the detour to Fluttershy's a chill running down her spine a the thought of almost being turned to stone. “Well, I guess this pretty much makes up for it then, ” said Rarity grabbing three drinks and something else for herself. "Well, I hope this will be fun for you then,” finished Rarity after a moment of awkward silence as she's placing the drinks in front of them within respect to her devilish idea. "So how was your day Sweetie do anything special?” asked Rarity getting a nervous no not really from Sweetie. As she stuffs her mouth with food and drinks her spiked juice. “Well how about you two anything different happen today,” asked Rarity smiling as they take a drink of they're spiked juice. "Well then let's eat I for one am starving,” said Rarity hearing audible chokes from the three but pretending not to notice. "Oh when you're done maybe we can play my favorite sleepover game!” said Rarity excited. “and what's that?” asked Sweetie trying her best not to look nervous ‘she's your sister Sweetie mare up she'd never do anything like what was in that book’ thought Sweetie as she rubbed her foreleg with her forehoof. As her friends began to yawn droopy-eyed. "Why, War Of The Pillows of course,” said Rarity smiling as she noticed the drugs taking effect. 'sorry darling but we can have our own little sleep over latter' she thought as her sister addressed her smiling sweetly as her sister fidgeted with her hoof. “Oh OK, hey Rarity can I be done I don't feel like eating any more in fact, I'm full, ” lied Sweetie as her sister gives her a questioning look. "Sure, in fact, I think we’ll have to play the game another time your friend's look as if they might pass out,” said Rarity as she and Sweetie looked over. as Scootaloo looks at Sweetie. “Run,” was all she got out before she and Bloom went face first into their plates. “Sis?” squeaked Sweetie looking wide-eyed at her sister. “I knew it was only a matter of time darling I'm so sorry,” said Rarity before Sweetie looks at her drink and as she loses consciousness she asks “why?”-cause I love you too much” answered Rarity as she moves the plate so her sister doesn't get messy. “And I ask myself that all the time darling” finished Rarity as she levitates the now unconscious CMC to the basement. Meanwhile in a jar in the basement sits Octavia “oh how could I have been so foolish” said Octavia scorning herself as she hears the door creak open. ‘Please just pick me already it's been two months since I’ve seen the sun please just get it over with’ she thought as she hears hoof steps and instantly rushes to look out of her glass prison ‘you monster’ she thought upon seeing her captors latest victims. “Oh Sweetie..no take me instead!” yelled Octavia as she pounds on the glass. “m mg ng nhh ah ng no.n..no” finished Octavia crying as she slumps to the bottom and sobs. “Oh darling I wish there was another way I really do” said Rarity as she puts shackles on her sister's hooves and latches the chain to the anchor embedded in the concrete floor "there you go darling nice and secure” said Rarity as she puts her sister in a chair while she uses her magic to shackle Scootaloo and Apple Bloom to the wall. "Now let's see ratted out no, oh yes so you’ve been discovered... hmm la de da ah sister's yes hmm. Oh, this is perfect page one hundred and forty initiations” said Rarity aloud as she reads the book index. “Oh it's perfect!” exclaimed Rarity causing Sweetie to stir. “Uh..mm...Rarity?” asked Sweetie eyes laden by the drug her sister had given her feeling groggy. "Oh you're awake good are you hungry?” asked Rarity walking over to the shelves of jarred ponies. "Yeah an..and my heads spinning..and I'm? …..starving!” exclaimed Sweetie as her sight swims and her mind clouds. But wakes up as much as the drug would allow. “Why-why she's your sister you monster she doesn't even have her cutie mark yet!” exclaimed Octavia as she watches the events unfold her captor seeming to suddenly notice her. “Oh, Octavia?” called Rarity as she walked over to a shelf of jars one in particular. “What what do you want you monster?” asked Octavia enraged as she saw the white mare canter over to look into her prison. "Oh, just a snack for my darling Sweetie Belle she's just starving” answered Rarity as she opened the jar and pulled the earth pony out. "you...you fiend you beast...you- oh be quiet my Sweetie needs her nutrition” finished Rarity silencing her with a spell as she levitates her out along with several others and puts them in a bowl of fruits. Back with Twilight. “Spike, have you seen jukebox I'm craving some musician?” asked Twilight going through her collection of jars. looking back at the swirling portal of a door that led back to the library. "Uh, no have you tried the j’s?” asked Spike backing out of the secret magic pocket room she made three years ago. “I'm in the js...Spike!” exclaimed Twilight holding her tongue as she found something an angry look crossing her face... "Yes, Twilight?” answered Spike nervously as he backed up further looking around. "Come here," said twilight holding a jar labeled jukebox with a clawed off lid as she looked at her shifty-eyed assistant. "I'm sorry! I...i..ahh” said, Spike, as he's magiced face to muzzle with her "heh heh, ” said Spike with a nervous chuckle. back with the crusaders. “Uh..mmmn Scootaloo?” mumbled A.B led mouthed as she shifted feeling tight metallic bracelets hold her in place. "uh...ghn.. mmm uh” replied Scootaloo. "Where are ng- scoots wake up!” said Bloom in a hushed tone noticing her blurry surroundings the drug wearing off. "What wauh!" gasped Scootaloo "where's?- here you are, Sweetie, you must have been hungry this is the there'd batch” said Rarity cutting Scootaloo off answering her question as she looks to see Sweetie her four hooves shackled together sitting in a chair and being hoof fed. Ponies!. "au?" gasped Apple Bloom. As she sees Sweetie eating what appeared to be Twist?!. "Sweetie, darling we better stop we still have dessert,” said Rarity as she levitates the last pony into her sister's agape maw her sister's eyes looking around drearily. “OK,” said Sweetie meekly as she swallows the live squirming pony. "Where's ss..?” asked Sweetie drawing a dark smile from Rarity "Scoo. sc. appl Apple Bloom Scootaloo!” exclaimed Sweetie as she starts fighting the drug remembering what happened. “Mm, mg hm..ng mg mm uh what did you...WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY FRIENDS!” yelled Sweetie as she falls out of the chair and wriths trying to get free. "Oh, well I was hoping we could eat them together but it would seem we need to move on to stage two -giggle-,” said Rarity. And Sweetie instantly stops struggling, watching as her younger sister went rigid. "What I. I. I ate- not yet but soon, soon you and I can spend more time together than ever before all you have to do is pass an initiation test!” explained Rarity excitedly as she watched the blank stare her sister had. “Wh..what.. a. test, ” said Sweetie in a confused haze. “yes darling an initiation test,” said Rarity flipping a switch with her magic and revealing her friend's. “Appl. Scoot. girls!?.sniffle” said Sweetie sniffling as she looked there way seeing the shackles that held them to the wall. 'this has to be a nightmare' she thought scared. "Sweetie, it's OK ya didn’t eat us we're fine,” said Apple Bloom a nervous smile crossing her face seeing the look on her friends face. "OK. Sweetie in this test all you have to eat them and you pass” explained Rarity giddy as she licked her lips feeling hungry herself. "Whathh...what!” squeaked Sweetie as she starts to sob. 'eat them but that means... noo' she thought the drugs giving her a headache. "Either that or I eat you and them, I can't have you three going around telling every pony my secret. You know what they’ll do, don't you?” said Rarity as Sweetie stared straight through her. 'Mmm marshmallow... no oh please sweetie just eat them' thought rarity fighting with herself on how to handle the situation feeling hungry as she felt herself drooling at the thought of having three fillies squirming in her belly "Oh come now it's not as bad as what Fluttershy would do if she so much as thought you knew, she eats foals you know. It took a lot of silent death threats and glares to be sure I could trust her with you” said Rarity which at this point Sweetie was crying her eyes out. 'poor dear you really should have minded your own business I do hope I won't have to eat you' she thought she would enjoy the endeavor but she couldn't risk losing her sister in such a manner as she fought with her cursed impulses. “It's my fault I'm sorry I should...shoul- should’ve kept your muzzle where it belonged” chastised Rarity as Sweetie crumbles to the floor. she sobs so hard that she coughs up Twist. “?twis. s. twist! I......I'm wha how..” said Sweetie cut off dreading what she'd done ‘did I..did she...have I been eating ponies!?’ thought Sweetie panicking as twist looked at her petrified by fear before she's picked up via levitation looking at her sister in fear as she realized where her school freind had just been. "giggle eh ha hmm oh well open wide Sweetie,” said Rarity as she levitates Twist over to Sweetie as Sweetie backs away from her. "Come now Sweetie do you honestly think she's the only one?” asked Rarity snidely as Sweetie reaches the end of her chain stumbling over the there'd basement step. 'relax darling just eat her so we can be together' thought rarity feeling twisted up as she watched her sister cower hoping the snack in her magic would help sate her hunger towards her sister's marshmallow form. "You're making me hangry Sweetie do you know what hangry means?” asked Rarity aggravated as her stomach growled. "Angry and...ng...hungry?” answered Sweetie inching away as her sister licked her lips. "That's right darling angry and-mm. slurp. gulp-hungry” said Rarity as she presses Twist against her lips before slurping and swallowing her. 'Mmm like peppermint sticks oh come now darling you can't be this scared you know I won't hurt you gurgle... just eat her you have magic make it painless.. argh and it did nothing oh I hope I can hold out long enough to get her on board if not in my belly' she thought torn between herself as she felt the urge to swallow her sister whole and have her friend's as dessert she thought of anything she could use to help convince her sister to join her less sh join the churning soup in her stomach first. “Oh well I thought you and I were sisters,” said Rarity as she charges her horn. "-Sis?- I'm sorry darling” said Rarity cutting her off as she levitated her up. 'don't worry darling once your a nice soupy goo I'll absorb you then we can spend the rest of our lives together. no oh I really don't want to but you leave me without much choice' she thought as she licked her lips her magic washing down her throat as she swallowed air casting a spell on her sister her mouth open wide as she listened. “uh. hmm...r...ra...RARITY WAIT PLEASE!” yelled Sweetie shakily as she looked down her sister's throat saliva sparkling like gemstones squirming as she frantically tried to escape... “Yes” answered Rarity dispelling the spells as she allows her sister moment feeling her throat pulse with the spells magic her stomach churning in anticipation. 'well she went rather quickly Mmm divine for a filly as plump as her' she thought, contemplating her snacks aftertaste as she felt her stomach reduce the filly to raw nutrients sympathizing her sister's undying fate as a part of her being. 'i wonder how warm her soul is?' she pondered as she listened to her sister stammer out. "Can...c.c.can...can we talk first?!” exclaimed Sweetie squeaking breathing heavy as her sister sets her down. 'think think think what's a good reason to not eat me why's she doing this, I thought she loved me!' her mind screamed at her unable to give herself answers stammering as her sister addresses her yammering the first thing that came to mind “I suppose it wouldn't hurt” pondered Rarity as she looked at her fear stricken sisters face frowning. 'Oh, hush darling it won't hurt just a tingly feeling as you melt into me' she thought, trying to reason with herself as she knew she wouldn't be holding her sister aside from feeling her warmth within herself. “I...uh..mm..when did all this start?” asked Sweetie hurrying to come up with as many questions as she can too by time. 'oh, no sweet Celestia she's going to eat me!' she contemplated trying to stay calm as she felt like falling apart. rarity listened as she responded calmly thinking back to when she had found herself entrapped in the mess she tried to keep her sister safe from sense. “Well after the wedding Twilight and Celestia pulled me aside apparently I had eaten some sort of vore cake without knowing, I'd rather not go into detail. later I started to get strange cravings every pony I looked at even you darling i... I had the urge to..to.to eat you!" she explained the memory making her think of all the ponies she'd eat to avoid the meal in front of her as she continued. "having had enough of that I went to see Twilight it was apparently around her lunch or was it snake time, anyway I wasn't thinking I had this craving on my mind and I walked in on her meal. at first I wanted to scream seeing her laid-back gorging herself with her own kind earth unicorn and Pegasus alike at first we just stared at each other but then she offered me one... and I accepted, it was the most mixed disgust-joy flavor-fully disturbing experience I’ve ever had... and I've been doing it ever since, a few days later and she gave me this book the same one you stuck your muzzle oh Sweetie why? I don't want to do this but Celesta's book it has rules and- Celesta's rules are law finished Sweetie. "yes Sweetie that's right I really wish there was another way" said Rarity sighing. 'Oh, darling as good as your going to be you really should have been more careful this is your own fault' she thought as she tried to justify her actions feeling her gut churn as the miniature mush that was left vanished into her intestines enjoying the pleasing sensations as she hated herself for it. "Does it hurt when...uh..you eat them?” asked Sweetie surprising herself at how calm she was. 'just talk to she's your sister why'd she want to eat you?' she thought forcing herself to stay calm. “Here look up page thirty-two,” said Rarity giving her the book. Upon reading Sweetie finds she hears Celestia herself speaking to her in her words the book goes over everything answering almost every question. Except one why didn't her sister ever stop. "Uhm...Rarity?” asked Sweetie nervously. "yes, darling?” answered Rarity as she looks at her tear-drenched, dry-eyed sister. 'Oh, darling i'm so sorry' she though pained as she could almost feel the twisting storm of feelings behind her sister's eye's "Why? ..ha... have you ever thought about stopping?” asked Sweetie getting a wince from her sister as she levitates her. "Mm, ng.aw..mmm" stammered Sweetie scared at first but hugging her sister the moment she was close. "Well, the thing is...Sweetie mm..." -began rarity posing as her face contorted into a wince before turning cold and hardened- "we're done here now what is it going to be!?” Said Rarity doing a complete one-eighty pulling Sweetie out of the hug and levitating her to face her muzzle to muzzle. "I..i..i..i I need mm... mm ...more time they're mmmm ng my friends!” exclaimed Sweetie sobbing taken back by her sister flip back as she squirmed freaking out before forcing herself to stay calm. "No Swee...Sweetie, please don't make this hard on me, on you, on us,” said Rarity seeing her sister's teary signature puppy eyes and pouty lip face melting a little in the process. "Oh...mm OK here you decide how you want them I'll give you five minutes no more OK/” gave in Rarity levitating the book to her. 'then I can hold you as I rub you're squirming belly giggle my sweet little morsel' she thought a darker pleasure crossing her mind. 'no shut up get out of my head I don't have to oh who am I fooling if I don't then I have to eat them all' she thought fighting with herself as a side of her tries to twist her sense of morals. "Mm.mm ng..the..thank..yu..you sis!” exclaimed Sweetie sobbing as she grabs the book and hugs her sister. " You know Sweetie I've been looking for a way out for a whole year now maybe you and I can find one together,” said Rarity as she shed a few hard and hot tears herself. "What do you think they're talking about over there?” asked Scootaloo wriggling more to get comfortable now rather than struggling like before as she watched her friend talking with her sister not sure what to make of it. why's she hugging her she... wasn't she about to eat her?' she contemplated confused. “Whaddaya think their talkin bout scoots er sis is gonna make er eat us!” exclaimed Apple Bloom falling more and more back on her accent as she looked to her imprisoned friend feeling hopeless, “I...well... I don't care I’d offer my life for hers any day!” exclaimed Scootaloo frustrated and defeatedly. as her wings flailed helplessly at her sides. “Me too, hmm ng ah hmm” agreed Apple Bloom as they both start sobbing. "Shhh mm, ng mg they're coming, be strong!” exclaimed Scootaloo whispering As she sees Sweetie and her sister approaching. "Yeah mg mm, ng” agreed Apple Bloom "don't let er have da joy of our pain!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom in a hushed tone. As she sucks up her tears as best as she could. Scootaloo already having done so. "Are you ready darling have you made your choice?” asked Rarity walking over to follow her sister as she notices her walking toward her friend's. "Mm..ng sniffle yeah” answered Sweetie sobbing and sniffling as she steels herself for her choice and goes over what her sister said ‘you know Sweetie I’ve been looking for a way out for a year now maybe you and I can find one together, yeah sis maybe, together?’ thought Sweetie solemnly as she looks up at her friend's they're long tear-ridden faces making her cringe. "It's OK Sweets... no matter what happens we're still your friend's,” said Scootaloo confidently as her friend approached her looking angrily at rarity who seemed to show little concern for them. "Yeah cutie mark crusaders forever!” cheered Apple Bloom a frowned joy on her tired and tearful face as she saw sweetie carrying the book making her nervous as what was to happen. 'she wouldn't, would she?' she thought as her fear is confirmed eyes going wide as she realized what she feared was happening now wishing she had more time to think of an escape plan. "Uh.. umm...Rarity can you um help me learn the spell on page one o five ..uh. please?” asked Sweetie trying to hold strong as hot dry tears burned her face looking away from her friends as her gut twisted with what she knew she had to do. "Sure darling” answered Rarity levitating an apple out of a nearby basket and setting it on the table. "I could do it for you” offered Rarity now standing next to Sweetie as she felt the spell wash over her stomach feeling the loosening flesh warm up and moisten. "No! ...no, i..i.i want to learn it myself” denied Sweetie quickly adjusting her tone not wanting to upset her sister knowing she wasn't in any position to draw an argument. ”that's the Sweetie I grew up with, independent,” said Rarity in a proud tone as she rubbed her sisters should like she was going to enter a championship arena offering her support. “now rather than concentrating on the fruit itself concentrate on the energy inside it and think of the size you want it” instructed Rarity a small smile at actually spending some time teaching her sister some magic. “K,” said Sweetie as she focused her magic and casts the spell - squelches- sigh. she sighed as she failed determined to do it she looks at her sister shyly. 'come on if I can't do this then everything's for anything!' she thought, yelling at herself knowing the spell was her only hope left. "Almost darling just a little deeper now close your eyes and focus on the energy you feel when you touch the apple with your magic” Rarity instructed further smiling sweetly at her sister as she looked at her sisters would be meals. 'what am I, huh oh yes I can leave there remains in the woods near fluttershy's oh come on rarity you sick little bastard' she thought berating herself at the thought. “mm.hg, ” said Sweetie a short struggle. eyes closed in concentration as she felt the object change " that's it, look, Sweetie, you did it!" Exclaimed Rarity excitedly seeing her sister complete the spell. “I did it I did it I..ii.. yeah” exclaimed Sweetie her joy zapped from her the moment she looked up at her friend's sad smiles. 'no I no I don't want to... but you have to it's the only way then go get twilight so she can help' she thought, screaming internally "It's OK Sweets we love ya either way, ”said Bloom choking back her tears as she watched her friends success sealing her fate. "Yea, Sweetie me too either way” agreed, Scoots as her face reddens looking at rarity with resentment. “I want to. one more.. to be- sure darling take all the practice you need” said Rarity cutting her off and bringing out an entire basket of more fruits. And placing them in front of Sweetie. 'my darling first true spell' she thought happily as she let her sister practice helping her get the spell down. 'Mmm i wish I could do more for the two of you but I have priorities to keep my sister comes first you will do nicely for protein at least you can fill something of a purpose in filling her up' she thought as her sister shrunk several fruits at once seeming to have it down. "good job Sweetie that's five in a row I think you're ready darling” said Rarity proudly as she cast a spell on her sister sighing as she didn't seem to notice. "Yeeaah sigh ready uh um...girls can you..mm close your eyes... mmn ng please no matter what please don't open mm ng them?” asked Sweetie sobbing her mustered resolve slipping her. 'i need to do it quickly' she thought as she readied her magic. "You got it Sweetie remember either way!” exclaimed Scootaloo as she gave a final glare to the white mare sticking out her tongue. "yeah once a crusader always a- crusader!” finished Sweetie cutting her bowed friend off as she charges her horn and they close their eyes. sweetie looked her friend's over and seeing they had closed their eyes as she looked to her sister and smiled sheepishly feeling like a nervous wreck. “Mm. hg,” she groaned as she shrinks her two best friends and as she's levitating them over her sister's words ring through her head once more. "Um...I love you Rarity...ng. m so much..ng,” said Sweetie sobbing. as she wrapped her magic around the ones she loved. feeling dizzy as the drug made it harder to do much of anything in full strength. "Once a crusader always a"--> "crusader" --> 'you bet you're lucky horseshoes, Sweetie, we’ll always be friend's and don't you forget it!’ finished Apple Bloom internally as she breaks her promise and opens her eyes for a peek. “Uh,” said Apple Bloom shocked at what she sees. " I love you rarity mn sniffle" Sweetie sniffles holding her miniature sister in her hooves smiles in half relief and half agony. "I love you too Sweetie more than you may ever know,” said Rarity as her sister opens her maw-mm.ng..mm.gulp.ng mm ah mg ng.” sobbed Sweetie as she hooves her sister in, not wanting to chew, her throat swelling as she forces herself to relax and forcefully swallows her. “Sweetie!” exclaimed Apple Bloom causing Scootaloo to open her eyes as well.'she just ate her she just oh my Celestia she actually...' she thought as her mind nearly breaks "What is it over ?” asked Scootaloo as she too realizes what's happened. "Sweetie you just ..uh Sweetie oh no Apple Bloom the face” exclaimed Scootaloo knowing the brain-dead Sweetie look all too well as Sweetie levitated her closer to her, maw agape. "No SWEETIE BELLE SNAP OUT OF IT WAKE UP! It's not working!" exclaimed Bloom as she and Scoots dangle above their friend's mouth her pearly white teeth shining a smile of death. “We have no choice~ ear rape!” shouted Bloom as her friend nods in agreement. "SWEETIE BELLE SCREEEAAAaM!!!!. Ear raped Scoots and Bloom. the blood-curdling scream snapping their friend out of her trance-like state a little too late. "ahhgmn!” exclaimed Sweetie accidentally closing her maw on Scoots. 'huh ooh Mmm no not food huh why do you taste like an orange?' she though stunned before realizing she intended to swallow holding herself. "SWEETIE DON'T SWALLOW JUST OPEN YOUR MOUTH YA GOT SCOOTS IN THERE! "Shouted Apple Bloom wide-eyed. Sweetie froze a tangy orange taste in her mouth replacing the marshmallow aftertaste of her sister as she remembers the conversation with her. 'later I started to get strange cravings every pony I looked at even you darling I...I had the urge to..to.to eat you!’| ‘have you ever thought about stopping?” Well, the thing is...Sweetie mm...we're done here now what is it going to be!?' thought back Sweetie as she fought the urge to swallow. 'she tastes like MMm no stop I don't want to'' she fought herself as she found her friends flavor to make it difficult feeling her friend wriggling in her mouth. "SWEETIE!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom snapping her out of her reverie. “Mmm?’- ‘no I won't be like her!’ thought Sweetie “mmm..ng pluh” spat Sweetie as she forces herself to spit her friend out of her mouth and into her levitation spell. "Geez Sweetie how long did you plan on keeping me in there?” asked Scootaloo as she shakes within the levitation field. “Hey watch it Scoots!” shouts Apple Bloom as she's sprayed by slime. "yeck guh now I need a bath oh sweetie it’s ok you didn't eat use, uh oh" she finished before remembering the white mare that she watch inter her friends body the large lump descending her friends throat still fresh on her mind as she shivered. "uh Sweetie are you OK?” asked Scoots noticing Sweetie's blank stare her pupils small. OK! OK I just had to fight myself so I didn't eat you OK I'm not .. I'm the exact opposite of OK I'm..mortified. Psychotic sick in the head a freak….I'm... I'm a monster!!’ screamed Sweetie internally.
sixty two hours later"A.J?" Asked Apple Bloom not sure about what her sister had told her, she hadn't slept much since yesterday and minutes felt like hours 'how long till I can see, oh who am aah kidding they're probably gone, eaten, dead !and it's my fault!' Thought Apple bloom dreading what was an had happened to her friends. "Its just a meeting relax sugar cube, ..." soothed A.J as she guided her sister through the maze of tunnels. 'She's barely slept every ten freaking minutes she'd wake up screaming' thought a.j thinking back, they'd left the council at four am but no matter what she tried her sister couldn't sleep more than a fifth an hour at a time and that was Saturday, now it was Monday sundown it had been over forty-two hours since the incident. 'Ugh rarity when sweetie's out, mngh why'd ah make that stupid promise its a good thing it's only against fatal vore mmng when ah get my hooves on ya yer gonna wish it was fatal!' Mentally fumed a.j as she approached her destination. "Ya know sweetie n scoots'll be there," said a.j hoping to lift her sister's heavy spirit. "Really you mean their OK!" Exclaimed Apple Bloom Brightening up at the mention of her friends. "Yes, in a way but not the way ah know yer thinking," said a.j seeing the confusion on her sister's blindfolded face she continues "their alive but its complicated anyway we're here" finished a.j as she stop's her sister far enough so the door wouldn't hit her. " meanwhile just inside rarity listens to her cyan friends story "So> she literary told you she wanted you to..." Started, Rarity not sure how to finish the sentence as she sat on one of her custom ground Pillow's and looks at her friends distended gut. "Yeah.." -R.D posed- "...Rarity I'm worried about her health the way she looked at me when she said it, it wasn't right!" Said R.D as she looked at her current special package said package giving A short wriggling. "I'm sure the fact that she can talk to them about it now rather than holding it all in will help darling," assured rarity having her own distended gut. "So what ritual did you do?" Asked R.D as she looked at a disheveled unicorn. But before she could say anything there was a knock on the westerly door. Looking at each other they call out their code call. "What's tastier than tekiela?" Called R.D and rarity in unison. "Cider Cocktails!" Came the response hearing the current passphrase rarity uses her magic to unlatch the door. a moment earlier just outside the door. "It's gonna be fine, Rarity and R.D wouldn't do anything that could hurt them but no matter what same rule as the council ya promise?" said A.J reminding her sister of the undergrounds golden rule asking her sister that she promise to follow the rule as she knocked on the door. "Only if you pinkie promise, to not 'gulp' eat me or hurt my friend's," said Apple Bloom asking for assurance as she heard somepony respond from the other side of the door. "Cyder cocktail!" Said A.J responding to the call as she brings her sister in for a close nuzzling before answering her. "cross my heart hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye" finished A.J doing said motions. Before guiding her sister in. "Darling does she really need that filthy thing?" Questioned rarity noticing her sisters best friend in what to her was the most ghastly looking jet black blindfold as A.J guided the youth over. "Yes it is, so long as she's down here undergrounds golden rule remember," responded A.J in an irate tone reminding her friend of the reason for the blindfold as well as the calling of the meeting particularly the latter. As she placed one of her sister's hooves on a table in the center of the small room with four magic infused doors one at each point of the compass. "Um darling you seem stressed," said rarity trying to lighten the mood knowing full well the reason giving a nervous smile as her irritated friend started towards her. "A.J I kno.." Started R.D not sure what to say and gaining a death glare from her friend cuts herself short watching as an infuriated A.J made her way to a nervous wreck of a unicorn. "Ya'll think, this is what's keeping ya safe...' Started a.j through her teeth poking rarity in the gut. '..no no, oh rarity ya couldn't be more wrong...' She said in a softer tone as she brings the petrified unicorns, chin up. '..look me in the eye when I'm talkin ta ya!...' Said a.j now looking into the eyes of the one responsible for her sister's position. '...oh no its because I promised yer sis I wouldn't, that 'd show ya mercy..." Finished A.J giving her friends package another poke for emphasis. "A.J you're scaring Apple Bloom," said R.D noticing a familiar bow sticking out from under a table. "I'm warning ya! huh?" Said a.j hearing the mention of her sister she turns to see a familiar and shivering filly. "Sigh bloom are ya OK?" Asked A.J as she made her way over to her Distressed sister. "Where's sweetie and scootaloo ya said they'd be here?" Questioned A.B quivering as she holds onto one of the tables legs like it was going to disappear. "And I wasn't lying and ain't lying now either sugar cube if and when ya want to come out ah'll guide ya to em" assured A.J as she stopped next to the table leg her sister was holding. "So Whatcha wanna do?" she asked. "Ah wanna see my friends," Said a shivering and nervous filly. "Oh Bloom ah assure ya their fine but remember how I said that their alive just not in the way you're thinking, now I can't tell ya how, yer gonna have ta ask their sister's sugar cube promise me ya won't freak, ah know what yer gonna think; but it ain't like that now I'll guide you to them when yer ready," soothed A.J seeing her sister stretch her hoof out blindly she puts her own hoof where her sister could find it "ah assure ya their fine now come I'll take ya to em" said A.J as she guided her sister over. 'What could be different then what I'm thinking if their alive then what?' Puzzled Apple Bloom as she took her sisters hoof and came out from under the table. Now guided by her older sibling she makes her way to where she assumed her friends would be. "Alright take two more steps and you'll find sweetie," said A.J as she let go of her sister and watched as A.B bumped into rarity. "Uh, sweetie?" Questioned Apple Bloom as she bumped into what she assumed was her friend but lodger then she remembered. "Not exactly darling but you're getting hotter," said Rarity as she put a hoof on the youth's shoulder the action getting a small wince. 'If this is rarity then where's sweetie?' Thought Apple Bloom as she blindly put a hoof on her friend's sister. "Your there darling," said Rarity as Apple Bloom's hoof brushed the bulge that held and protected her sister. 'But she said she was alive ah don't...huh?' Thought Apple Bloom as she felt the fury bulge that she realized held her friend as a wriggling broke her train of thoughts. 'Ah she, she ate her I'll rrhh' contemplated Apple Bloom. "Rrgh why, why'd ya eat 'er!" Yelled Apple Bloom as she tackles Her friend's sister. "Why?!" She yelled as she began strangling Rarity. "Scgh let.cgh me explain chhk" strained rarity as a small hoof is jammed in her jugular. "Why she was yer, Sis... My best friend! why'd ya eat er?!" Yells Apple Bloom shaking rarity lake a rag doll the unicorns head occasionally hitting the floor. "I did..dint.. Ea.a.eat her.ererer!" tried rarity as her head felt like it was going to fly off. "Why!... wait, what? " Shouted Apple Bloom as she stops shaking the brains out of rarity. "No stop apple bloom you're hurting us she didn't eat me!" Yelled sweetie. "Ahh!" Gasped Apple bloom startled as her friend yells at her dumbstruck as the voice comes from rarity's lips. "Get off!" Groaned sweetie. "Uhh... Swe.sweatie?!" Questioned Bloom as she's shoved off. "Sigh its complicated hmm just listen in short its some weird ritual can you promise me you won't do that again you see if she gets hurt I get hurt we're linked or something like that nmgh I'm getting a headache just listing to her please I'm fine don't worry" Explained sweetie taking advantage of her sycho telekinetic link. Albeit getting a headache as a result. "Uh??..OK?" Said, Apple Bloom, as she tried to make sense of what happened. "Uhng my head..." moaned rarity rubbing her head as it pounded. "Uh um, Rarity... WHAT th hay did ya do ta sweetie?!" Questioned Apple Bloom startling the mare. "Huh whah..oh hey I blacked out there for a minute, huh oh sorry the boutiques closed" droned Rarity vaguely remembering two minutes earlier. "Rarity!" Shouted Bloom getting Rarity's attention. "Whah Appl..? Apple Bloom! Please, I didn't eat her I swear!" Said Rarity coming back to reality. "Then why's she in yer stomach!" Shouted Apple Bloom getting close and pointing a hoof at where she knew her friend was. "She's not in my stomach, I didn't eat her," said rarity emphasizing the later. "But then why's your ng..." Started Bloom realizing where her friend was. "I'm gonna be sick" she finished turning her head and gagging as she remembers what she'd read from the book and why she threw up at the clubhouse. "I can assure you she's perfectly safe after all it's completely natural" stated rarity as Apple Bloom passes out from shock. some time later. "Come on A.J she's fainted three times already and thrown up" stated R.D as she looks over at the disheveled filly in a sisterly embrace. "Not to mention the fact she's been up all night plus yesterday night which is about thirty-seven hours minis Friday" continued rarity seeing the sleeping ball of fur in a warm embrace. "I know but every time she falls asleep she has nightmares!" Said A.J frustratedly eyeing rarity darkly. "And every time ah try an put er dawn she holds tighter at me before she starts squirming and fighting begging that...sigh," said A.J ending with a sigh as her sister jumps straight into the latter. "Ah nono pleas A.J no don't ahhh mn mn ng ahah-" began Applebloom as she started fighting and sobbing " -Shh shh it's OK your safe everything's gonna be fine," cooed A.J trying to calm her sister down. "Sis wh whah why can't ah see?" Asked Applebloom giving an occasional struggle. "Couse, it's dark out but everything's fine ah'm here ya just had a bad dream it's late ya can sleep with me if that'll help?" Soothed A.J Deciding to leave out the more traumatizing details. "Mm-hmm" Murmurers Applebloom as her sister brings her over to a pile of pillows. "Sniffle a.a. A.J?" Questioned Applebloom as she's lead to what she hoped was her sister's room. "Yeah?" Answered A.j as she lays down with her sister and brings her close. "...ah keep having the same nightmare don't ah?" Asked Applebloom getting as tightly embedded in her sister's embrace as she could. "Uh huh and complaining in her sleep begged ah don't eat ya or hurt scootaloo n sweetie ta stay back why em ah doing this. So tell me how much of it do ya believe?" Responded A.J nuzzling her sister. "Ah don't know ah know ya wouldn't but every time ah wake up it's the same cycle of questions n answers just phrased differently then it's the same nightmare!?" Said Applebloom shivering. Not sure of dream from reality. "Huh and have ya thought bout asking a different question?" Tried A.J giving Rarity a hurt and angered look. ".........no..ah ah just don't know what's real anymore" came Apple Bloom's tired response. "sounds ta me like yer stuck in a nightmare cycle," said A.J not sure where she was going. "What's a nightmare cycle?" Questioned Applebloom yawning. "It's exactly like it sounds a cycle of waking from a nightmare only to fall back into it too tired ta stay awake long enough to tell the difference" came A.J trying to explain what she thought was happening. "But how do ah tell them apart?" Asked applebloom letting out another yawn. "Because of this...ow," told A.J as she pinched her sister's shoulder electing a yelp. "hay that hurt!...physically and? ah...? You can't feel that in dream's!?" Complained Applebloom as she realized she was in fact awake. "Exactly' that's just one way ya can test it by trying to touch things and ah'll help" assured a.j nuzzling her sister. "Really...but what's the other way?" Said applebloom with a brief smile. "Ya know ya tend ta move when yer sleeping," told a.j pulling her sister closer. "Ah, sometimes wake up at the bottom of the bed but why?" Responded applebloom not sure how it would help. "Ya know when yer having a nightmare and ya can't move no matter whatcha try?" Asked A.J thinking of how she was going to make her idea work. "Yeah like my hooves been glued to the ground or I've ah ah been ng shackled" answers applebloom ending with a whimper. "Shh easy yer fine an yeah that can happen when yer tangled in yer sheets n the like so ah'm gonna help by keeping those kinda things from happening an when yer squirming ah'll let ya know everything's fine" explained a.j encouragingly. "But how-' Shh yer fine and ah'm right next ta ya whenever ah see ya struggling ah'll help" shushed A.j as her sister droned on before nodding in and out of sleep. "Good night little sis... "Good night yawn mngnmmn," said A.J her sister giving a tired yawning murmur as she drowned off to sleep. A few moments later "Are you sure about this?" Questioned rarity as she helps R.D rearrange the furnishings moving the tables, cushions, and the like in accordance with the idea. "Yeah, it helps me and Scoots" answered R.D as she moves the other end of the table into position. "Hmm, and you're sure an ed-glue made of a couch, two table's some sheet's and a boatload of cushions is going to help?" Asked rarity tying the last sheet corner to the left table's outer leg. "Well it helped scootaloo sleep the first night and I'm thinking you know full well what you put her through*," said R.D as she watched rarity levitate the final cushions against the inner wall of the tables. "It's not like I had many choices, she stuck her muzzle in it," said Rarity with a harrumph. "You could have taken her to twilight's have the memory wiped," said R.D suggesting what she could have done. "I WASN'T THINKING, I...I couldn't bear losing her let alone her memories! I just thought that if i... We-maybe, well you know how it feels to avoid the ones you care for most, I I just thought, I don't know, now I just feel worse" said rarity vehemently before quieting down remembering the reasons for the fort. "I. I knew it was just a matter of time' I just wasn't ready and I lost it, it was like I'd gone ferial like an animal" finished rarity solemnly as she sat in front of the fort. "I know, when squirt found out I tried to explain, but I couldn't get through to her, she caught me on the out skirt's of town near flutters, if I had just been patient and waited till I got home; but I hadn't felt hunger like that I was just about done when I noticed her the look still gives me nightmare's" started R.D telling rarity she wasn't alone. "And you lost it." Said rarity looking dawn. "No I let go, my whole world came down she tried to say something; but she turned and ran then it hit me not just did I lose my whole world she was my world and I wasn't just gonna watch her, let her leave nor could I she probably wouldn't but I couldn't take the risk I caught up to her I knocked her out grabbed her looped back grabbed what was left and went home, I made the cloud in a spare room hard to the point if you threw a vase at it, it shattered." Told R.D as rarity just listened in contemplation "I sealed us in an waited for her to wake up hunger was a nightmare I fought for what felt like forever when she woke up she just wouldn't listen I'd go to a corner she'd go to the other. I finally got close enough to grab her, I just held her let her struggle, cry and beat on me. tell she gave up we just sat there, but I wasn't there mentally" said R.D looking down as she continued her story devoid of any emotions. "when I came around enough I heard her ask me to say it wasn't true that she'd had a nightmare. When I didn't say anything she just sat there crying. When I finally had the nerve to talk all I could say was sorry. She'd go to say something but shy away from it, I couldn't stand her being that way I hated myself all could manage was short murmured answers I barely realized I was answering her; but the last question made my heart sink she asked me how I'd feel if I ate her, If I ate her, rarity you know how horrible I am when it comes to those things" reminded R.D as rarity just nods solemnly keeping to herself offering what little solace she could. "It wasn't Intel she asks again that I answered I said I'd feel dead inside that I'd feel like my heart dried out and shriveled up or at least that's what I'd say now sigh. I don't even remember to be honest; but what I do remember is what she said afterwards and it still haunts me, she asked me if I wanted to, to eat her and that she didn't care as long as I was happy that I was the only sister she wanted and nothing I did could change that so longs I told her why." Said R.D as she feels a hoof put on her shoulder albeit ignored as she continues. "When I finally stopped crying enough I told her why, there wasn't an emotion on her not in her voice just a blank face and when I asked her why she'd except that, she said because she loved me and she wanted to be a part of my life even if it meant she had to be my next meal to do it. Pretty soon she started asking me if I would if I would eat her. And we keep talking in circles before she began asking me what she tasted like after that she started asking me to, and eventually I couldn't help it hunger was starting to hurt me." "but I kept strong tell she put her hoof in my mouth saying if I didn't eat her it would mean I didn't care either way and eventually hunger got the better of me, she didn't even move or even try to and I didn't even fight myself till afterwards and I spent the next hour trying to talk her out of it when I asked if she really really wanted to spend the last moments melting inside me; but when she stopped responding I took it upon myself and forced her out. even when I look at her now It still haunts me. If it wasn't for zecora shed still be missing her fur and covered in burns! ng MHG ah ng." Finished R.D as she breaks down. Rarity couldn't speak all she could do was hold and embrace a broken Pegasus as the mess let out bottled emotions about her favorite fledgling. "its OK she's fine now we can't dwell on a mistake if we do it won't get any better" tried rarity hoping she had said the right thing as she offered her best comforts. "And ya have a right ta be but listen so long as ah'm still bucken their ain't anything that's gonna dare hurt ya, ya hear" said a.j as her sister clings to her like super glue. "R.r real. lyly, but ya-" stammered applebloom as she imbedded herself against her sister she was awake fully now only to be told the truth of what was and what wasn't nightmare. "Ah said ah wouldn't let it happen now sweetie's almost ready for ya and remember yer in an enclosed area five high, five wide, and five long space with one in an out yer gonna be fine" assured a.j as she tried to get up but was held down by a petrified fillies stone solid death grip. "Sweetie? Sweetie, Equus to sweetie?" Tried rarity as her sister just looked straight through her. 'What the (by some Apple's) just... did I...did she ng oh bucken.....she just... Then she..she...ngh hrmmk ng my sis just.... And now she's, she's... Bucking LICKING ME CLEAN!!!!' Tried sweetie screaming internally. "I think you broke her," said R.D as she watched rarity levitate and lick the blood and slimy clear fluids off her sister. 'Why the bucking hell am I watching this and why in the (by some Apple's) hell can't I look away!?' Thought R.D cursing herself only to find drool running down her chin. 'Because you like it you want to lick her too-no shut up get out of my head!' Fought dash as a side of her tries to take over. "Ya mean like split personalities!?" Asked applebloom at hearing her sisters words. "Yeah, it happens when ya try ta keep yer vore life separate from yer public life. Purty soon ya got a sick twisted voce whispering, teasing an tempting ya ta do horrid nasty twisted things" explained a.j as her sister just froze. "But don't worry ah don't got one and ya won't get one because ya got sweetie scootaloo an me ta talk to, it only happens to the ones who hold it all in" Continues a.j noticing her sister start shaking and quivering. 'Caruption?..... Cur...CURSE!' Tried applebloom mentally before she stammers "Ya mean ah..swe. Scoo. We... We're CURSED!!!!??" Said applebloom ending in a shout as she felt limp. "Ah know but yer fine ah won't let it happen," said a.j reassuringly seeing her sister turn pail feeling her limpen "......" "Ya know what ah think will cheer ya up?" Tried a.j hugging her sister. "...." "..n." "Seeing yer friends" said a.j trying to put as much enthusiasm in her voice as she could hoping it would in encourage her sisters hopes. ".." "There fine sugar cube ah never lied ta ya ah may have left out a lot but that was ta try n keep ya out of this damn hell! Ng mn ngn mm ahmmm Sar sarsar saaryy ah emph ng mm nonmng" said a.j trying not to show weakness before shattering as her sister began bear hugging her. "... A. A.J ah don't won't ta go through it anymore can ya ng put mmn sigh ah love ya ng" tried applebloom ending in a sigh as her sister showed she got the message. 'Sigh at least this way ah won't dre... dream...sigh' thought a.b losing consciousness in her sisters choke hold sighing as her mind goes blank and everything goes black. A.j lets her limp sister out of her hold in stunned panic 'what'd ah just do? No!' She thinks as she checks her sisters pulse "oh thank heavens" said a.j in relief hugging her sister as she sets her down. "It'll be alright ah promise" said a.j as she leaves the makeshift furniture fort closing the woven fabric n pillow door as she left. "Sweetie..ng rarity!?" Started a.j as she stair's at a disgruntled filly being licked clean like a newborn giraffe. "Almost done darling just got to get behind her ears" said rarity nonchalantly like it was the most natural thing to lick some pony clean. "Uhmmn?" Murmured a.j as she watched sweetie's left eye twitch in succession to her right ear as her sister licked an unblinking eye before moving to to her ears. "Yeah I think she might be broken" began R.D as she walked over to a.j with bloodshot eyes. "Their both broken!?" Said a.j as she pointed an exclaimed hoof at the two in questionable and possibly shattered sanity. "Well how's bloom faring?" Asked R.D as she sat down next to a.j as she continued to watch as rarity whispered something in her sisters ear. "Uh ng ah.. she's out like a light ml" stammered a.j as she tries to make sense of what had happened. "Are you alright you're looking like you did when pinky... Oh my gosh did you eaulp mmm mn mm" began dash before a hoof is shoved in her blabbing pie hole. "No! Just out cold" exclaimed a.j remembering the length she'd gone once to ensure her sisters safety the flashback of several ponies with their heads turned backwoods ex military guard stile eyes glazed over rushed through her head before a feeling of something squirming brought her back. Dash tried everything but nothing could free her from the death hold a.j had her, poised to snap her neck before suddenly being released. 'Huh' thought a.j before realizing she had one hoof covering her friends mouth her hind leg locking her in place as she had her right arm around the throat. "Oh damn it I'm sorry ah just can't take much more of this dash my sis literally asked me ta choke er out and ah didn't even hesitate!" Exclaimed a.j in shock releasing her. "Cough cough humlk ah I'm OK I think we're both pretty near our breaking point Gee's Jacky ya liften th' barn r som'n?." Said dash catching her breath letting her humour out to try and lighten the mood. "Ahm sorry ah ah ah just don'no what- A.J your fine I forgot a trigger its no problem your fine." Said dash before her friend went on apologizing for the next hour. "There all clean darling" said rarity distracting a.j and r.d from a would be argument. "Is she ready now?" Asked a.j in impatience as rarity gave her sister a few finishing licks before pinching her cheeks and kissing her on the forehead. "Almost she just has a meal to finish and she'll be good as new" answered rarity before levitating a bowl of fleshy mush from behind her and spoon feeding it to her sister. "Ah don't got time fur this!" Told a.j moving to sweatie's position grabbing the bowl of mush gagging as she saw what it was. R.d watch jaw dropped as a.j plugged sweetie's nose lifting her muzzle up and having the mush pure down the fillies throat. Meanwhile in said fillies fragile mind. Why?....….............I her babies....eating...it do no taste no my do from me...why!!!!! Oh fore all the..ng what am I do what why huh no I taste its wrong with me I love sis candy jinker fishing?!........ Duh...??' Thought sweatie as her mind scrambles out of control absentmindedly swallowing each time her mouth was full. "O...ky that just happened" said r.d coming back from her wandering mind to see the final contents of the bowl slip down the stone stiff fillies gullet which squelching gulps. "Hmlk sigh" choked back a.j as the last of the repulsive mushy flesh slides down the fillies gullet which to her surprise didn't fight her curious she moves sweetie's head back as far as it would go and let go nothing she was like a manikin that held what ever pose you put it in. "She's broke.... No just dead shocked she'll be fine when she sees my sister' thought a.j heartbroken seeing that the dramatized ball of fur wouldn't be moving on her own she moves her herself. 'Uh OK?' Thought R.D as she watched a.j pick up sweetie by the scruff of the neck as tears threatened to fall knowing full well why as she carried the small filly in her mouth. 'Why?' Thought a.j as she feels sweetie curl up in a fetal position as she begins carrying her toward the makeshift fortress of what she hoped would be solitude moving the sheet n pillow door she goes in closing the door behind. "Sigh" ' why, why couldn't she just gone ta twi' Thought a.j as she walked in the makeshift fort closing the door behind her turning around filly in mouth she looks to her unconscious sister as she thinks 'Why of all the damned things did it have ta be this?!' Walking over and setting the stiff malleable filly next to her sister watching as sweatie fell over but didn't show any sings of movement. "Apple Bloom?" Asked a.j nearly crying not sure if she should just let them rest as she looks at sweatie wondering what was going through the frozen fillies mind. 'oh any moma heyberger hungry chosen me day n mm mm mm drug by bye!?!... My my my may I MySISTERGAVEBURTHTOME!!!!!..maple gut'. Tried sweatie finally contemplating what had happened as her chaotic thought train took off again. 'Cornsarnet rarity! This is all yer fault!... An mine, why?' Thought an irate a.j as tears started to fall. Sniffle aahamngh sob sniffle "why?" Said a.j as she cries to herself. "Rarity, Rarity. Rarity!?" Said rainbow trying to get her mind numb friend to keep talking failing as the mare stared through her rambling on about random things as far off as food from fabrics. "A.j's right their both broken uhg why me?!" Said dash preparing to high tail it if it went south. "Oh sweetie diner Its your favorite chary carpet stew with a side of- slaap..." Rambles rarity before she's slapped across the face. "Uh she didn't even, oh crap!" Started R.D before rarity started to make a strange sound it started as a murmur but grew in volume. "Nnnmnmmnmnmnmmnrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaggh!!!!!!!" Let out rarity before chasing a fleeing Pegasus. "Whaaa, help!!" Shouted dash as she took off running before taking to the air. 'At least they look peaceful sigh' thought a.j before hearing a familiar pony cry out. "Ugh what now?!" Groaned a.j as she made her way out. "What n Tarnation Is going on!!?" Exclaimed a.j as she watched a rainbow blur dragging an enraged unicorn behind as the mare jet skied around the room. "Rrgh that's it" said a.j as she grabbed her rope n lasso. 'Bad idea bad idea' thought R.D as she dragged rarity around the mare's jaw clinched shut on the rainbow appendage making a final lap before finding herself lassoed to the mare. "What in th' blue fu** s wrong with you two!" Fumed a.j as she bound the two together. "Uh she-" started the two before their cut short. "Ah don't CARE just look at yerselves!" Exclaimed a.j as her friends look down in shame; but before she could scold any further she hears her sister. "Now look whatcha gone n done" said a.j as an idea grabbed her attention. "Hey?!" Complained R.D as an apple is stuffed in her mouth. "Mmm nmn sigh" tried r.d albeit ignored as a.j walked away grabbed her saddlebags and interred the fort. "A.J?, A.J?! Ah can't see,ahh" called applebloom confused, gasping as she's brought into a sudden but welcome embrace. "Shh it's OK" soothed a.j as her sister stayed limp before returning the embrace. "Sis ah ah.ca.ah..see sweatie?" Uttered applebloom scared and confused as she begins to remember things as her sister holds her. "In a minute can ya close yer eyes fur a sec?" Asked a.j reassuringly getting an almost in addable murmur in reply. "Ya promise ta keep em closed?" Said a.j asking for confirmation. "Mm-hmm" "Good now keep em closed" repeated a.j as she began untying the blindfold. "Uhmmn" mumbled applebloom confused as her sister removed the blindfold wondering if it was OK to look yet. "Not yet" said a.j sweetly as she tossed the blindfold aside and replaced it. "A.J?" Asked applebloom wondering what her sister was doing as she felt her mane being redone. "Yer fine......OK don't take it off but ya can look" said a.j as she put her sisters mane in a bun and tied the pink bow around it holding it in place. "Ah..?" Questioned applebloom confused. "Their modified welder's goggles" explained A.J as she sees her sisters confusion. "But th... Council??" Began applebloom confused whether or not to open her eyes. "Oh sugar cube it's OK please, sweetie's sleeping right next ta ya" soothed a.j the latter getting her sister's attention. "Re.really? Whah sis ah can barely see.." Said applebloom confused as she's only able see a few feet in front of her the rest becoming near outlines as she looks around. "Oh swea!?..What's wrong with her eye's?" Said bloom excitement turning to worry as she looks closer at her friend nuzzling her. "Sis?!" Questions bloom as she began sniffling. "Sigh its called dead shock, she's in there aware of everything but just not 'here' here" sighed a.j explaining the reason for sweetie's motionless verbally unresponsive absent-minded state. "Whah? She..ah...?" Tried apple bloom not understanding. "Sigh it's like th's she's aware yet absent" continued a.j as she moved to demonstrate what she meant. "Ah...?" Tried apple bloom trailing off, watching as her sister picked up sweetie by her scruff as she sees sweetie move into a fetal position. 'She...she's..?' Thought applebloom trying to comprehend what her sister was portraying. ''Oh sweetie come on ya can't be this far gone' thought a.j as she moved the ponykin like fillies legs into a standing position. "Swee, sweetie?" Murmured apple bloom watching as her sister manually moved sweetie's limbs before setting her down. 'She's not..?...'there' there?' She thought as she watched her friend stand motionless eyes forward her pupils small tiny dots against purl white saucers. "When do you think she'll be back?" Asked R.D turning as far as the rope's would allow. Hearing no response as she listened to the subtle sniffling of her friend behind her. 'I..I..I just... Then I...what's wrong with me! I just then... I was just licking...then I..a.j feed my...to..she. Didn't..respond or real or fight i my sister.... I BROKE MY LITTLE Sister!!' thought rarity sobbing as her mind slowed down enough for things to start registering. 'Wait squirt what if sh.. but she asked me to she's aware of...isn't she?' Thought dash worriedly as she registers what she might be putting her adoptive sister through in the next few hours. [hn "Sweetie? Come on sweetie please ah can't do this alone please?" Tried applebloom hugging her friend as she lies limp in her embrace as tears fell and soaked sweetie's fur. "A.j whada ah do?" She asks looking at her sister for guidance. "Ah don't rightly know besides being there talking and comforting her, try reminding her of the good um the happy moments ah guess?" Answered a.j not sure if she'd be much help as she watched her sister trying to resist the urge to hurt rarity. "....." " hey sweetie ya remember when we tried getting are cutie marks in mimeing but we couldn't keep quite enough?" Started applebloom recalling the funny things "Or when we had are first sleepover?" Recalling the joy.'Sniffle ah really miss that" said bloom as she lays down guiding sweatie to do the same sniffling as she does. "And remember the time the three of you tried getting yer marks as pie chief's ah swear you three looked like ya went through the dough mixer yerselves" ads a.j with a light chuckle as she lied down next to sweetie her long foreleg bringing both fillies closer. "Yeah that was ridiculous" said applebloom a small giggle escaping as she remembered the incident. "Remember the fist time ah took ya and scoots ta zecora's an got lost but you found the right path again I was just bout ta give up but you said we'd find it an ya were right. Sweetie yer a lot stronger then ya give yourself credit fur" continued applebloom as a few tears fell sinking into sweatie's mane. "I..she my fed ... ....I..no she did ...do my my!.. A..Apple a.b? Oh applebloom sorry its all my fault you don't deserve this I'm dumbbell an idiot am so sorry a.b mmn." Thought sweatie as her mind began to settle allowing her a straight thought. "Ya remember when y'all had yer first sleepover in the clubhouse anya caught me taking a picture of the three of ya curled up in a ball as tight as ya could make yourself?" Said a.j noticing sweatie's ear twiitch twice but continuing as her sister giggles. 'How could I forget she wouldn't stop talking about it tell you gave her the photo or at least a copy....an.. why can't I move I can't even feel...anything at least I deserve it and I don't want to either' thought sweatie as her mind began settling as she felt something wet hit her eye and blinked. 'Iiii..I.didn't I'm sorry ng' she though as sh felt her muzzle twitching. "yeah and scootaloo freaked out and tried getting the camera" laughed applebloom warm tears running down her cheek and into sweetie's eye followed be a short blinking as another ear twitched. 'I.I... Yeah that was funny ii can.can you forgive me? I'm sorry I didn't know what it was' nmmng nnm" thought sweetie as she feels her nose begin burning. "Yeah an...sniffling..." Began applebloom a light whimpering causing her to lose the thought as a new one takes its place. "Sweetie please its OK now please don't stay in there ah miss ya, yer singing calming voice ya remember when ah fist caught ya mid song ah swear sweatie you can jump twice as high as me" continued bloom as her friends ear twitches. 'I..im crying? Why am i.. She's huggi...holding me ...? My throat hurts and my tummy burn's ugh my head pon pounding my eyes burns oh my everything?! Em I crying?' Thought sweetie as her mind swims. "Come on sweetie please, once a crusader always a crusader, ah ah love you sweetie please yer my best friend, ya stood up fur me an ah got yer back please when ya ready ahm here, ah'll always be here fur ya nmm mm ah when yer ready" said applebloom encouragingly watching as her friends ear twitched thrice. "Ah love ya" finished applebloom tiredly as she nuzzled up to sweetie holding her, hoping her company offered enough solace. "Ah know ahm probably not a voice ya wanna hear but ahm here fur ya, keep my sis company ah gotta go see if scootaloo's ready yet" said a.j softly in sweatie's ear before hugging them both and leaving to check on two tied up mare's. "Hey!" Called a.j angrily coming out of the fort to find R.D bickering at rarity. "I am the prettiest unicor..make it stop!" Shouted R.D cutting off rarity's ramblings. "Ugh riiight, OK then?" Thought a.j seeing rarity bobbing her head to a tune she couldn't hear. "Pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows" sings rarity repeatedly. "Ugh I can't think" groaned a.j at the broken record of a unicorn before yelling " shut up!" As she began to get a headache. "........" "Sigh finally- that goes fur ya to dash!" Retorted a.j silencing them both as she rubbed her temples. "...." 'It's almost noon just tree days an everything's handled' thought a.j as she looked at the clock its loud ticking making her left ear twitch with every passing second. "OK then, shut up an let me talk" snaps a.j like a whip R.D mouth shutting with an audible chomp. "...." "Let's start with scootaloo how long tell my sis can see er?" Asked a.j moving towards the cyan Pegasus. "...." "How long?" Asked a.j as she strokes a hoof across rainbows gut getting a short wriggling as a result. "..umm....to" stammered dash as her favorite fledgling reoriented herself. "I'm sorry what's that?" Asks a.j as she puts an ear to R.D's gut as scootaloo moved again this time hearing the fluids churning and sighs. "Ya know I wonder if her wings 'll come out right this time?" Pondered a.j as she moves away giving dash a predators smile. Gulp "i ugh, ok I admit it I don't know when she'll come out yet!" Blurted dash watching as a.j 's hoof drags across her belly. "Uh huh so ageless fertility where it's her decision to an when to come out or not huh, the records three years ya know" stated a.j putting her face up next to dash's distended gut as it gave another short wriggle. "so you wanna come out yet scootaloo" Asked a.j hearing R.D wince. "...." Silence. "See she's not ready she hasn't even finished redevelopment yet" stated dash as she lets out a sigh of relief. "uh I can't decide, so how's sweetie?" came a muffled voice. "Huh, are ya sure bout that dash?" Asks a.j as she looks at a dumbfounded Pegasus. "......." "Are Ya?" Asked a.j resting her hoof on the side of scootaloo's living arrangement. "But that's... Um, scoots?" Murmured dash as her gut gave another short wriggle. "umm hello? I'm kinda board in here... Wait you mean if I stay in longer my wings might get bigger awesome I'm totally staying then! oh how's sweats, she's not... Please dash I wanna hear her voice" responded scootaloo her muffled voice making her sound older. "Uh" said dash trying to come to terms with her talking gut. "She's sleeping but ahm sure applebloom would love it" said a.j as she gave dash a warning look. "oh ok how's she doing, ya didn't eat her...right?" asks scoots at hearing her friends name. "Of course not why is it DAT Everypony thinks ah'd eat my sis, she means more ta me than anythin th's crazed world could give me in a lifetime!?" Exclaimed a.j pointedly realizing she was yelling into her friends gut she pulls away. "Uh why don't ah take ya, ya both to er" said a.j staring daggers at the latter. "Ya try any-thin an ah'll make yer life miserable ya hear" said a.j darkly as she moved to untie the knots. "Uh huh gulp" murmured R.D as a.j began untying knot's. "Ah mean it" said a.j seriously as she hogtied rarity the mare speaking random gibberish. "I know" responds dash as she followed a.j to the fort. "Shh wait here" shushed a.j as entered closing the door on Dash. "Ah love ya sweetie" murmured applebloom sleepily as she curled tighter around sweatie as her sister walks In. 'Sigh why?' Thought a.j closing the door and turning to see her sister nuzzled up with a now sleeping friend held tight in embrace. 'Why them?' She asked herself as she lies down next to her sister nuzzling her as she brings them closer. "Yawn a.j?" Yawned applebloom sleepily as she felt movement. "Yeah ahm here" said a.j embracing her younger sibling. "Ah sweatie's gonna be fine right?" Asked bloom concerned. "She'll be fine ya know why?" Countered a.j trying to keep her sister from worrying. "Ah,no why?" Responded applebloom sadly. "Cause she has you sager cube" answered a.j her sister giving short smile as she hugs her. "Yeah" said applebloom a smile across her muzzle disappearing as she thinks where her other best friend could be. "Um a.j is scoots uh?" Began bloom not sure if shed like the answer. "Sigh she's fine she just.." Started a.j not sure how to tell her. "....just what, please?" Asked applebloom a short whimper escaping her as she worried about her friend. "She's fine its just well she's like sweetie was with rarity except she can talk n stuff" tried a.j as she felt her sister tens up. "Ya mean sh..she unberthed?!" Asks applebloom ear twitching as she holds sweetie tighter. "Yeah but conscious and she can talk with ya, ya wanna see. Um talk with her?" Responds a.j trying to explain her friends situation. "Um ah guess?" Answered a.b unsure of herself. "Easy squirt your gonna hurt something?!" Complained R.D as her fledgling squirmed inside her. "sorry its just a bit cramped you mind standing for a bit?" came a familiar guttural response. "Sigh fine by the way are you head up or down?" Asked dash as she stands up for what felt like the fifteenth time. "uh let me check" said scootaloo as she reoriented herself albeit to R.D's discomfort. 'Ugh sigh why'd I let her chose this?' Thought dash as she felt her sister stretch out two hooves imprinting her stomach. from the sound of your heart an the way gravity feels I think I'm head up and back side down explained an eager voice as she got comfortable. "Good now you comfy yet?" Asked dash as she felt scootaloo settle. yeah for now anyway but if you sit down again try sitting straighter answers scootaloo as she nuzzled her self in. "OK but please don't move so fast next time" said dash as the forts door opened revealing a bemused a.j. "um so, when do I get to well speak with bloom?"asked scoots timidly. "Well how bout now?" Responded a.j showing R.D a sly smile getting a slight blush in response. "ok, uh hurry up I can't get there on my own you know?!" said an eager fledgling. "Ok then um, she's a bit unnerved bout the unbirthing thing so?" Responds a.j eyeing R.D discerningly. "oh uh, ok I won't say much, unless she asks" said scootaloo as she felt her carriers movement. 'Ah Hope you wake up soon ah don't know how much more ah can take' thought applebloom as she held sweetie close listing to her friends heart beat, offering as much warmth and comfort as she could. "Sagercube?" Asked a.j as she came in seeing her sister raise her head and look in her direction. "Yeah" responded applebloom trying to see her sister as much as the goggles would allow. " are ya ready" asked a.j moving to where her sister could see her. ".." "Ah guess?" Said applebloom not sure of herself. "She's fine, oddly happy but fine" said a.j assuringly at seeing her sisters frown. "Ok" said applebloom meekly as she rests her head on sweetie's neck. "Alright" responds a.j as she makes her way out. "..." 'Ah wonder how she feels; but how can she talk, shouldn't she be... What if she is suffocating!... Why? ah hate this!' Thought a.b worrying about her friend as she let a few tears go. "OK but please don't move so fast next time" said dash as the forts door opened revealing a bemused a.j. "um so, when do ah get to, well speak with applebloom?" asked scoots timidly. "Well how bout now?" Responded a.j showing R.D a sly smile getting a slight blush in response. OK uh, hurry up I can't get there on my own you know?!" said an eager fledgling. "Ok then um, she's a bit unnerved bout the unbirthing thing so?" Responds a.j eyeing R.D discerningly. "oh uh, ok I won't say much, unless she asks" said scootaloo as she felt her carriers movement. 'Sigh ah hope she won't be to freaked out' thought a.j as she opens the door and comes in. ".." "Its fine sager cube ain't nothen to worry bout" said a.j assuring her sister that everything's fine. seeing her smile she walks over to her letting dash close the door behind her. 'Sigh I just hope she doesn't say anything stupid' thought R.D as she made her way over sitting next to a.j watching as she brought her sister and sweetie closer. 'Please don't faint again' mentally begged a.j as she Nuzzled her sister. "Sis?" Asked applebloom nervously as her sister pulled her in closer. "Its fine, whenever yer ready" soothed a.j as her sister gave an occasional tremor. "Sweetie ah.." Began a.b unsure what to say or ask. "She'll be fine, tell ya what ah'll hold er close when ya go sound good?" Said a.j soothingly. "When yer ready" she added. "hey when em I gonna talk with her I can barely hear her?!" exclaimed an inpatient muffled voice. "Huh um....?" Said applebloom nervously as she looked in the direction of a familiar sounding voice. "See ah told ya she's fine, ya ready now?" Responded a.j as her sister froze staring mouth slightly ajar. "It's a bit weird but, ya kinda get used to it" said dash trying to be encouraging. 'Seriously ya couldn't of come up with anything better¿' mentally face hoofed a.j as her sister began to move. "Is she...really, in there?" Asked applebloom nervously as she got up. "uh where else would I be, wait is that you bloom?"asked scootaloo as she realizes who was talking. "Ummm yeeaah, yer not suffocating are ya!?!"said a.b before exclaiming and rushingly placing an ear against R.D hugging the the large bulge. "ay easy your gonna squish me!" exclaimed scootaloo as she tries to reorient herself. "Gasp yer drowning!?" Gasped a.b as she hears slushing as she felt her friend squirm. "What no!" Said R.D and scootaloo simultaneously. "applebloom calm down there's plenty of air in here, plenty!" continued scoots as she felt her friend loosen up. "Re. Really?" Asked a.b confused 'this just don't make a heap a sense' she thinks As she rested herself against the large bulge as she felt a short wriggling. "yeah I got this cord thing sticking out of my gut thats attached the one of the super soft mushy, and smooth walls in here it's totally awesome" Said an over eager Pegasus. "Ng uuhh hhuuh, yep ah need ta lay agh sigh" slurs applebloom as falls on her back fainting. "uh applebloom ya there?" asks scootaloo as she felt the pressure her friend's weight had put on her lessen before fading completely. "to much?" she asks as she reoriented herself. "She's out squirt" stated dash as she looks at a heap of filly on her back in a fetal position an occasional hoof giving a small twitching. "Yep" drones a.j as a short squirming grabs her attention. 'Where em I mm smells like cinnamon, no honey mmm apple pie mm apple's' thought sweetie as she felt her stomach rumble. 'Is she coming around? Oh please sweetie' thought a.j pleadingly as she allowed the small filly room to move. 'Uh' thought dash as she watched sweetie sniff the air and lick her chops. 'Well this will be interesting' she figured as said unicorn locked on to the source of the smell and rose to her hooves eyes closed taking a few more whiffs. 'This is good now bloom won't have ta face ng...' Thought a.j stopping dead as she felt somepony give her forehoof a good long lick. 'Strange it tastes like Apple pie but mmm smells good, oh ta heck with it!' Though sweetie tasting a slight difference paying it no mind as she bits down and Begin's socking on her tasty treat and takes her first swallow, only to hear a shout, opening her eyes as she finds herself staring at a slightly familiar and upset face. 'Uh?' A.j thinks before feeling something chomp and swallow her hoof cuff n all. "ay!" Let's out a.j startling her sister awake as she quickly looks to see sweetie's maw engulfing her hoof as the fillies eyes shoot open, now staring back at her Leiden and confused. "Ogh a.j?...sweetie. Ng sweetie?" Came applebloom before starting dumbfounded as she sees her friend gnawing on her sister. "..." ' OK now that's funny I wish I had my camera!' Thought dash watching as sweetie and a.j staired at each other one gnawing away not a care in the world. "Uh" mussed applebloom as she made her way over as R.D held back a snicker. 'She's not even registering' thought a.j watching as a care free filly gnawed and socked away on her hoof eyes Leiden like a foul with a bottle. 'Is she..no she sucking? Like a foul?' Puzzled a.b as she looked at her sister concerned confusion written on her face. "Uh, its harmless um mind grabbing my saddle bags?" Said a.j unnerved looking to her sisters scrunched up face as she allowed an increasingly hungry unicorn filly to use her hoof like a teething ring. "Uh, OK" responds applebloom thinking 'this IS nut's!' As she looked for her sisters saddle bags. "So, get yer hoof caught in the cooky jar?" Asked R.D trying to hold back her Laugh's watching as a.b grabs a.j's saddlebags. 'Mmmm I'm soooo hungry! Sigh Apple's' thought sweetie as she felt her stomach groan and she gave another, stronger swallow. "Auh" let out a.j as her hoof is taken in glutinously another few inches, 'Sigh why?' She thought annoyed as her sister brought her saddlebags over to her using her spare hoof she takes out what she needs. "A.j.....?" Asks applebloom as she sees her sister pull a large Tupperware container out and try to open it struggling a bit. "Sigh she's fine just a little numb ugh can ya get this?" Responds a.j trying and failing and giving it to her sister to open. "Uh, th's don't bother ya?" Asked applebloom opening the container to find an entire and still warm cinnamon Apple pie. 'Huh still warm' she thought as she hooves it to her sister. Watching as her sister began wafting it in front of sweetie's now twitching nose. 'Mmmm app..huh oh mmm that smells like huh sigh good mm' thought sweetie following the stronger pie smell. "See?" Said a.j as she continued to waft the fresh slice of apple pie in front of sweetie's nose as she began sliding her hoof out of the carnivorous fillies maw. "Uh so how often has this happened?" Asks applebloom watching as her sister's hoof comes out of her friend's mouth with slurp sound and a slice of pie is inhaled almost taking her other hoof with it. "Happened with pinkie a few times" answered a.j as her hoof is nearly chomped in a squelching gulp as she grabs the tray and brings it to the fillies awaiting maw an eager eater horphing it down ending in an impressive belch. 'Sighhh mmmm much better now where am I huh..... A.j? dash? gasp applebloom!' thought sweetie as things began registering. "Gasp moobelppa ouyrko!" Said sweetie or tried to with a gasp. "Huh," said the group in unison as a.j just sighs. '......please be joking' thought applebloom pleadingly as she staired blankly at her friend's odd smile.
