To Keep A Secret
Chapter 4 - Secret's Out?
Previous ChapterNext ChapterDark Light's room was free of windows and filled with books.
"Read much?" asked Nish.
The black-coated 'Pegasus' felt a lump in his throat as he recalled the content of the books.
"These books are all on magic use," he worried. "How will I answer if-"
FWOO
SLIDE
Nish levitated a book from the shelf that was titled 'Mastering Illusion'.
"Interesting...," he considered aloud. "I'm a naturalist myself but some of these spells in here could really help in a pinch."
Dark Light had to think fast.
"I've just always been curious about Unicorn magic," he firmly stated.
The tone of Dark Light's voice caused the room to grow silent.

"What?" the 'Pegasus' asked angrily after Nish used his magic to close and lock the bedroom door. "What is the meaning of this?"
"Shh," soothed the pierced pony while slowly making his way to Dark Light's bed. "I think some pony needs to get something off his chest."
Dark Light's temper flared as he watched the pierced pony sit his rump upon his bed.
"ENOUGH!" he boomed while stomping his hoof firmly upon the floor. "You and your sissy friend need to leave right this minute!"
Nish simply nodded his head and magically moved his rose-tinted glasses from his muzzel to a nearby nightstand.
"You can't hide from the truth forever," the orange Unicorn said simply. "It'll only make things worse for you later."
Dark Light's emotional control was fading fast. He wouldn't be able to keep up his disguise much longer.
"I'll just have to take my chances," he thought while looking into Nish's eyes. "I can take him. I've taken on royal guards and won and that was even before I gained all this wisdom from my travels to canine Crossroads."
"I'm waiting," coached Nish while patting an open space on the bed. "I can tell you a secret if it would make you more comfortable in sharing yours."
Dark Light was surprised by this statement.
"Yeah," he gulped . "Tell me your 'secret'."
"My real name's not Nish Pony," the orange Unicorn replied while maintaining eye contact. "It's Tiny Trunks."
Dark Light found his eyes gazing towards Nish's flank where he came upon the Cutie Mark of an elephant head with a short trunk.
"How is that a secret?" he pressed. "Your Cutie Mark pretty much gives it all away."
"Because," grinned Nish. "I like to see teenie-weenie-peenies."
The faux Pegasus found himself blushing as his body immediately went into a posture to hide his stallion parts.
"What?" he questioned with bewilderment. "Who goes around admitting to such things?"
"Quacky and I," replied Nish. "Our Cutie Marks kind of are a bit off the mark about what makes us special."
"How's that?" inquired Dark Light.
"I'm quite perceptive," added the pierced Unicorn as he lit his horn and magically brought out a plastic package from Dark Light's closet. "You're a piddle pants, too."
Dark Light's black face was crimson in color.
"I... I... I wet the bed," he groaned. "And why are you nosing around my room? You have no right to be doing this."
"Sorry," Nish shrugged while setting the pack of diapers upon the bed. "However the 'fun prints' on these seem to be a bit much for a bed wetter."
"Fine!" Dark Light snapped. "I, uh, may like to wear diapers. I mean, well, if you had bladder issues wouldn't you want to not feel so awful about it?"
"And that's Quacky's lil' secret," added Nish. "He's wonderful in caring for water fowl and actually has a pretty nice place between Canterlot and Ponyville. However he really likes to be cared for as much as he cares for his lil' duckies."
Dark Light felt his guard go down a bit.
"Okay...," he said. "So you two are strange and, uh, I'm weird, too."
"But there's more for you?" suggested Nish. "Now you can tell me or I'll just say it myself."
Dark Light knew this was it. The moment this Unicorn stated he was a wanted fugitive and was going to be taken in was when he'd hit him with the paralysis spell, bucked him in the head, and did the same to Quacky before hauling the pair out in the woods.
"Tell me," he encouraged while narrowing his eyes.
Nish nodded.
"You're a Trans-Pony," he replied.
"What?" gasped the 'Pegasus'.
"No shame," assured Nish. "You're a Pegasus who wants to be a Unicorn. You're honestly not the first pony I've met who wishes they were one, the other, or alll three."
Dark Light was speechless.
"Thought so," grinned the orange Unicorn as he got off the bed, trotted towards Dark Light, and rubbed his back. "Just know you can talk about it without feeling shame. We like what we like and it's all okay as long as we don't hurt any pony through our actions."
"Who is this pony?" thought Dark Light. "Is he trying to trip me up with this banter? Is this how S.M.I.L.E. operates? Mind games?"
"You seem tense," noted Nish as he brought one of the diapers over towards the pair. "Maybe some foal time will help you feel better? I'm sure Larimar loves being little with his dada."
"...," Dark Light gaped.
PSHOO
WHOOSH
PLOP
"Legs up!" mothered Nish as he started the diapering process. "Ooh! You're a 'big boy', too!"
Dark Light went to cover his privates but Nish had the diaper already well put into place before he could react.
"We'll get some powder on you when we get back into your nursery," grinned Nish as he levitated his rose-tinted glasses back upon his face. "Maybe you have another set of trap door pajamas and I can read you, Quacky, and Larimar a bedtime story."
"Wait!" cried Dark Light. "Stop!"
Nish used his magic to bring the faux Pegasus to his feet.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk," he corrected while shaking his head. "If you're like quacky you'll feel so much better after your nap."

"Okay crinkle-butt," teased Nish as he went behind Dark Light and patted him on the back of his diaper. "Let's go nappy-time!"
"What to do?" the faux Pegasus asked as he felt the orange Unicorn poke at his diaper anytime he'd slow his movements towards the nursery. "Is this it? Or are these guys seriously just two odd balls with no affiliation with S.M.I.L.E.?"
