Chapter 10 (Rewritten)

Four days after everyone had moved into their home. Satou, Isacc, Eliza and Frostine had left the Crystal Empire and ventured back to the Frosted Valley to help gather resources for Isaac’s bow; along with helping them all to level themselves up.

The day before they left; however, Dainn had traded some of the Silver collars Satou had received for red and black. Of which Satou had stored in his bag, was ordered to use them to capture anything that either attacked him or wished to become his slave.

They had been out in the valley for a day, having camped in a nearby cave for the night. Using this as a chance to get more training in as possible.

During one of their expeditions into the valley, the group took a break. Satou stood nearby guarding, watching for any monsters while the others used any Potions they had to recover. His eyes were glancing around when something caught his eyes.

Satou turned to his right to find a strange object on the ground snow. After a few seconds, he walked towards the object, kneeling down and picked it up. Standing back up, he slowly turned it in his hands.

The object was a small device, one that appeared to be designed like a gun, but without anything suggesting it needed ammo. The design seemed to be a little different though, as the handle and trigger was holding technology on both ends, each part holding some strange ball of tech at the end.

‘What the hell is this thing?’ Satou thought to himself. His thoughts halted, witnessing a dim white and baby blue lights across the device, before displaying a hard light window to him. It looked to be a contract of sorts.

By signing this contract, I do hereby agree to a mutual contract with the displaced known as Sonya Rose, to whom I pledge a vow to protect the weak from those who would seek to harm them. As a member of the Protectorate, I accept this Matter Manipulator and the responsibilities that come with it as an agent of Justice.

Alert: To seal this contract, you must meet the contractor in a time-independent pocket dimension first. Please click accept to set up a meeting.

“Okay… I have a lot of questions about this one… and I doubt I’ll find out anything without signing it and asking this “Sonya”.” Satou said to himself before clicking the accept button. “... So… What now.”

Time began to slow around him. He could see falling snowflakes begin to stop in mid-air. A wall of white nothingness enclosed on him. Once it reached him, he was left sitting in an office-like space in front of a bipedal feline woman whose four tails sat idly behind her. She was in uniform, her vest showing a symbol like the device Satou had just seen, with wings. Her face had a calm expression, paired with a sapphire embedded in her forehead which seemed to glow slightly. Her blue eyes were focused entirely on him.

"Congratulations. You are the first to have found my token. I'll admit it caught me off guard, but nonetheless, welcome to the interview." The cat; presumably Sonya; greeted.

“Thanks… I guess.” Satou responded nervously, rubbed the back of his head. Sonya smiled and got down to business.

"Now then. If you want to use the Matter Manipulator as more than a means of summoning me, I'll need to evaluate you as a potential Protector. If you'd like to know, it allows for matter storage, quick weapon switching, instant crafting at the associated crafting areas, as well as a means to access teleportation networks. Would you like to join the Protectorate, or simply have me as a contact?" She asked.

“Back up a second… I have no idea what you mean by the Protectorate, and a potential protector of what?” Satou asked curiously.

"Ah. The Protectorate is my little organisation of intergalactic peacekeepers. It's our job to protect the innocent, at any cost we deem necessary. A Protector's greatest call to fame is overthrowing a tyrant." Sonya explained.

‘This is going to be awkward.’ Satou thought to himself. “I see. What would joining your group entail?”

"Essentially, making your world, or even universe; assuming you can achieve space flight, a better place. It will also grant you license to use weapons in areas that typically don't allow it, be it in your world or others."

“Okay. I think I understand what you mean.” Satou responded. “Is there anything else I need to know before we start?”

"Not really. I think I've covered the basics, so let's begin. What kind of situation are you in back home? I'd like to know, so I can get a feel for the general morality of the world." She opened with.

“I can’t comment on the entire world… But from what I know of it, I wouldn’t say it’s great.” Satou responded. She raised an eyebrow.

"How “not good”? Are we talking apocalypse? Seven deadly sins? Planet gonna blow up?" She asked. She was insistent.

“How do you place, an extreme lack of Human rights between an entire race, in the favour of a single-sex?” Satou asked. She leaned back, nodding in understanding.

"Ah, slavery. In essence, seven deadly sins category. And if it's worldwide, how is it you plan to protect the innocent? As I understand it, it's a hard world to handle." Sonya asked. She seemed to have her answer, or at least somewhat of an idea of what Satou's answer might be.

“If I could tell you an answer to that I would. I know simply cutting off the head isn’t an option, it could just lead to someone worse taking the guys place. The best way I was going with, was to influence the guy in control and manipulate his choices to reduce the risk to those innocents.” Satou responded, then added. “I know that it’s not the best option, but with the limited knowledge of the world I’m in, it’s the best option I have right now. Violence only breeds more violence after all.”

"Wise. I myself would not be equipped to handle this situation as you could. Everyone has their own means of resolving this. While my method certainly would not be easy, I would have begun with a simple strike to the root of the problem. How long do you think your method might take?" She asked.

“I don’t exactly have a timeline… I mean I am very close with the man leading the group. But he isn’t exactly the issue, he’s bound by laws he can’t get rid of.” Satou admitted.

Sonya seemed to think this over. "I get it. You need to find the heart before you can strike it, right? I guess that's not as easy as I thought. The matter Manipulator should help, at least. It can generate waypoints and an active map of the area as you travel, and you can keep a copy of all your notes and objectives in the codex feature."

“If I get it working that is.” Satou responded. “But even if it was their leader that was the issue, without the belief of those that follow their leader, all it would cause is the distrust of those around me, and a grapple for power from others who want it.” Satou responded calmly. “When there is a peaceful solution that doesn’t require the death of someone else, I would rather protect the lives of everyone rather than sacrifice someone who could potentially do good for the world.”

Sonya leaned back in her chair. "And yet sometimes death is necessary. There exist those for whom change is impossible without completely destroying who they are, and rewriting them into an entirely different person. Is that not a form of death in itself?"

“And you make people that can do that sound like the ultimate serial killers.” Satou responded while rubbing the back of his head.

"Whether they are or aren't is a topic of another debate. I'm simply gauging your personality and opinions. Back to the matter, some may say that being forced to live with the guilt of crimes you committed is a fate worse than death. Some people may deserve that fate. What's your take on this?"

“Well, that would depend on the person in question. If they killed someone because they find that they enjoy it, guilt isn’t going to be a punishment because they don’t see themselves as guilty, I guess the same would go for a genocidal dictator.” Satou responded.

Sonya smiled. "And what of those whose heart may be changed? For some, it may not be too late." One could tell she was liking where this was going.

“Well… I wouldn’t know myself the psyches of most people, but I would make the assumption most would need to be watched closely, I doubt many could live with it without support and those that could either fall into my previous category or are made of harder stuff.”

"I see. You have a good head on your shoulders. I think you're fit for the job." She said, concluding the interview. She stood up and held out a gloved hand.

“Thank you, I guess.” Satou responded, holding out a hand nervously before taking Sonya’s hand and shaking it. After the shaking, the white room faded, and both were standing back where Satou had found the Matter Manipulator. “Okay… I better ask just to be sure, but you are Sonya right?”

Sonya nodded. "Yes. I am the one who wrote this contract." She answered. She began to take in her surroundings, shivering a little. "Damn… wish I'd made the right protection pack at this point…"

Satou reached into his bag and pulled out a coat that would only just cover Sonya’s entire body. Passing it to her as he calmly said. “Take this, it may be a bit small, but it’s better than nothing.”

She smiled in appreciation. "Thanks." She said, before putting it on. It was a bit awkward due to her tails, but at the very least it was more protection than her fur was providing. She certainly seemed to be the kind of cat that was adapted to handle Desert conditions.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t give you something more comfortable, but it's the best I have.” Satou said apologetically.

"I'm grateful anyway. Thank you. Back in my world, Equis was completely destroyed. I'm still looking for a way to kill the god that did it, but I haven't done much since we escaped the planet." She explained her own lack of preparation.

“Considering you go off a dying planet that sounds like an awful lot of prep anyway.” Satou pointed out, checks over Sonya. “But I better ask if you are currently okay.”

She nods. "Yeah. We managed to save everyone on the planet. I knew the Ruin was coming three months in advance, so we had a lot of time to build custom ships and evacuate. We cut it close though. Ruin arrived just as we got everyone on board, and I flew us outta there." She shared. "And now I gotta find everyone a new planet to call home, at least till I can destroy this evil god."

“I can imagine that must be very stressful for you.” Satou responded calmly as he looked at the others behind him who were just finishing recovering from their journey into the valley.

Sonya eyed them up, noticing the collars. Her ears folded back in clear displeasure. "I take it, this is what you meant?"

“As in the collars… pretty much yeah, they see all females as no more than slaves at best here.” Satou responded sadly.

"And I suppose my position as Grand Protector means nothing to them?" She asked in reference to the males of this world.

“As in the people of this reality, most likely not… unless you have a collar like them, you’ll probably be taken as a slave the second anyone sees you.” Satou responded, his head lowered shamefully.

Sonya sighed. "If any of them try, they'll be in for a fight they probably can't handle. I doubt there are many that can actually stand up to an embodiment of Harmony, let alone someone with psionic power as absurdly strong as mine. But I'll respect your desire to remain peaceful." She responded calmly. She pointedly omitted the fact that she recognised those collars from some porn pictures she'd seen back on Earth before she was displaced… and she also chose to omit that she thought it'd be hot as hell if she let them. But she quickly shook these thoughts from her mind, unaware they were being fed to her by the Crystal Cocks.

Satou looks at Sonya again. “Are you sure you're okay? You look a bit ‘hot under the collar’ so to say.” He asked.

"Yeah, nothing to worry about." She waved it off with a smile. Her face hid her dirty thoughts well after that. She began to head towards the group, interested in introductions. "Hello, all. I'm Sonya. May I know your name?"

“What ‘even’ are you?” Isaac asked, suddenly levelling his bow at her as he pulled the string back while Frostine quickly pointed her spear towards Sonya.

“Stop.” The woman who has been watching both of them spoke to the tense human and lizard-lady. “Lower down your weapons.”

“But Eliza! We don’t know what she is! She could be another monster from this area!” Isaac shouted.

Sonya rolled her eyes. "Sure, a monster that can talk and carry an intergalactic cop's badge. I can totally see why you'd come to that conclusion about a desert cat." She said in a displeased sarcastic tone, with her hands on her hips. She didn't even look like she was bothered by the weapons, seeing as she wasn't poised to dodge.

Satou said. “Isaac, Frostine! Behave yourselves!”

“Sorry dad.” Isaac responded as he lowered his bow.

“Sorry master.” Frostine added as she let her spear held in her weapon hand, her head lowered in shame.

“It’s not me you need to apologise to;” Satou said, pointing his thumb at Sonya. “It’s her.”

“Sorry, Miss.” Frostine and Isaac responded hesitantly, both of them bowing their heads.

Sonya sighed exasperatedly. "Forgiven. Just try using better logic next time. If it can talk and doesn't immediately threaten you, you can probably reason with it. Take that as a general rule." She advised.

Neither of them responded, Frostine looked away from Sonya while Isaac rubbed the back of his head. Isaac looked towards Satou tears forming in his eyes.

Satou then shook his head before adding. “Isaac, you know why I did that so don’t try using tears to make me take your side.”

“Sorry dad...” Isaac responded, walking up to Satou and standing next to him gripping his hand tightly.

“Why am I the only calm one in the group.” Eliza sighed sadly as she got up from the snowy grounds.

Sonya chuckled. "I know the feeling. I had to take measures back in my world to stop a whole court of nobles from killing a changeling that was legitimately one of them." She said. "Anyway… introductions?"

Eliza places a hand to her chest. “I am Ez-004; though Satou and the others called me Eliza instead.” She nodded to Sonya. “It is nice to meet you.”

“The kid behind me is Isaac, and the Lizard girl is Frostine.” Satou added as Isaac hid behind Satou’s and Frostine seemed to only mutter something to herself.

"Nice to meet you all. Hope we'll get along." Sonya replied formally. She turned to Satou. "So what exactly is it you plan to do? I don't have all the information as of yet."

Satou didn’t respond for a second before speaking up. “Does anyone else want any more training for now or should we call it a day?”

“For now let's go back to the cart and cut our losses. Besides; we should let the monsters come back again anyway so we can use this place in the future.” Isaac responded nervously.

“You need anything else, Eliza?” Satou asked. Eliza shook her head, he looked to Sonya. “I’m guessing you won’t mind travelling with us.”

"Sure, why not? I guess I'll need to wear a collar though?" Sonya asked.

“I wouldn’t say you’d need to right now, I can just say I didn’t bring any with me when we reach the town… That's unless you want to wear one.” Satou responded, seemingly looking at something in front of him.

"I think I'd better get used to it sooner rather than later." Sonya stated, though with a blush. She raised her Matter Manipulator and started browsing through it. "Though I guess I should also change to a new set of clothes. My uniform isn't… well, slavey enough." After she stated that, her uniform dissolved into pixels, which rearranged into a new uniform. One made up of embroidered lingerie and some fluffy stockings on her arms and legs.

“Are you sure? “ Satou asked, “If I put a collar on you, you're pretty much declaring that you're my slave.” Satou pointed out.

"Eh. I've done worse." She shrugged. Though she said that in reference to kinks, not in general… though she didn't elaborate.

Satou didn’t respond as he reached into his bag again, pulling out a red collar before warning Sonya one last time. “Last chance to say no to this.”

Sonya rolls her eyes. "Go for it." She gestured as well, didn't seem to care what it meant.

Satou walked up to her, saying. “Head back.” She obeyed, moving her hair out of the way. Satou placed the red collar around her neck and it attached itself, sealing in a continuous loop around her neck as golden runes lit up around the collar. He could see as her eyes dilated for a second but looked no less clear.

"Huh. Feels pretty weird to have magic trying to mess with my head." She commented. Then, giving a cocky grin, she continues. "Emphasis on trying." She paused as she looked down at her waist, and blushes. "Oh. Guess it messes with more than my mind…"

“You sure you're okay?” Satou asked as he placed an arm on Sonya's shoulder. “If you don’t like that on, I can take it off right now.”

"I kinda like it, actually. Might take a few back with me, use them on bounties. What is this material?" She asked.

“I don’t actually know, I haven’t asked about them yet. I just got handed a ton and told to keep a few on me in case anyone tried to attack me, supposedly they can be used to make people follow orders and become more submissive to whoever put them on the wearer.” Satou admitted. “You do realise, you didn’t need to change what you were wearing?” Satou said in confusion. “It’s kinda counterproductive to wear less clothing if you wanted to keep warm.”

"The uniform didn't help anyway. Besides, I figured with the slave collar, I'd be more… Well, I'd fit in better in something more attractive." She replied with a shrug.

“What made you think that? Frostine only doesn’t wear clothes because she can’t feel the cold, and as you can see Eliza is wearing clothes anyway.” Satou pointed out.

"Have you seen Princess Leia's slave outfit? It's minimal at best." She tried to give an excuse so she didn't have to admit it was because she wanted to.

“I suppose, although she was on a desert planet; not a frozen one.” Satou responded, looking at Sonya with a knowing smile before leaning in and whispering. “Or is there a more personal reason for it?”

She pouted. "... I'm weird, okay?" She huffed. "I've got a lot of kinks and I know you don't wanna hear half of them."

Satou thought for a second before whispering again. “I’m sure we can find a way to help you explore a few of them while you're staying here.”

She blushed harder, but whispered in return. "Even… Vore?"

“I’m sure something could be arranged.” Satou replied in a quiet voice. “I bet almost any fetish could be on the table with some preparation.”

Sonya was floored; shocked that he didn't recoil in disgust. And on top of that… the idea of actually fulfilling a fantasy of hers got her to shudder with unrestrained lust. "I sincerely hope you aren't just playing with me here." She prayed out loud.

“I could be, or I may be telling you the truth... It’s up to you to decide.” Satou responded.

Sonya didn't take long to decide as she pulled him into a hug. "I'll fucking love you forever if you can help me with my whole list!"

“I think I know what you chose.” Satou responded with a chuckle as he saw Frostine seemingly glare at Sonya.

Sonya let go after a moment. "So then… I think I'm ready to go to the Crystal Empire. I never got to see it in my world, so I'm excited to see it outside the show." She said. If she noticed Frostine's look, she didn't show it. However, Frostine heard Sonya's voice in her mind. “Jealous? No need to be. I know how much he cares for all of you.” A telepathic message. Though Frostine didn’t respond and kept glaring at the feline.

Satou didn’t respond as he simply shook his head before looking at the group. “Anyway, there doesn’t seem to be any more monsters right now in the area, so let's get back to the cart and go home.” With that said; the entire group began to make their way to their cart and out of the Frosted Valley.

As the group reached the cart, Satou walked inside the cave to find Sunny and Sapphire both asleep in the back of the cart. Satou looked to them both as he said. “Girls we need to get moving, it’s time to head home.”

“Okay.” Sapphire responded as she climbed out the back of the cart with Sunny soon following. Both mares moved in the front of the cart, Satou linked them up to it.

“Everyone, you might as well climb on, so we can get moving.” Satou told the others as he climbed onto the front of the cart. Soon enough, everyone was in, with Sonya taking a seat by Frostine, Eliza sitting across from the two and Isaac sitting beside Satou.

Satou looks over his shoulder one last time before calmly asking. “Girls, are you all ready to go? Don’t need to do anything before we get moving?”

Sonya decided to answer for everyone but Eluza after looking at them since she could read in their expressions and minds. "Yeah, we're all good." But she continued mentally. “Though I think I may have forgotten to mention my psychic powers. Sorry if I forgot. I'm used to everyone knowing at a glance.”

Returning his sight back on the path, Satou gave the go and both mares began moving the cart forward. He mentally said back to Sonya. ‘Think you could teach me how to do that as well?’

“If you have the capacity to learn psionic abilities, sure. But I'll have to figure out how to teach it first. It's a racial ability for me.” Sonya replied. “It probably helps me a lot that the spirit of the Tree of Harmony jumped into my soul at one point.”

‘The Tree of what now?’ Satou thought in confusion.

“Tree of Harmony. It's the main force that allows Equestria to protect the balance of order and Chaos, among other things. It's got the absolute strongest magic in every Equestria. As far as I know. Although, there is a chance the one in this world could have been corrupted with lust…”

‘And that would mean?’

"Probably would explain this weird sense of lust I'm constantly feeling. Been getting stronger the closer we get to the empire."

‘I can’t be sure about this tree being the cause of that… it could be in part because of the collar.’

“Oh, I've been feeling it since I got here. And the collar is only doing so much.”

‘Heads up, it’s only going to get worse considering those Crystal Cock things are in the empire and all that, just try and keep your head on straight okay.’

“Crystal Cock? What?” Sonya's facade broke into a confused stare towards Satou.

‘Something the Caribou made the day I arrived, it seems to lower the inhibitions of all males and females instantly start acting like submissive or domesticated pets… kinda worried you’ll start acting like a kitten or something like that.’ Satou responded seemingly completely unphased by his answer.

“Oh. Interesting… I'll be taking some with my matter manipulator then. For um… ‘studying purposes…’ Maybe I'll make my own things out of it.” Sonya decided. Though for now, she hides her tool in one of her numerous tails.

‘Sure; let's go with that, definitely won’t be for more erotic purposes will it?’ Satou asked before adding.‘We’ll be travelling for a while, if you want to run down a list of things you want to try while you are here, you're free to tell me.’

“Sounds good. Let's see… I have so many, it's kinda hard to keep track of it all at once, even with my boosted mind. Off the top of my head, I can think of tentacles, egg pregnancy, fetish parasites, Slimes, maybe possession if the possessor uses me for kinks, and pretty much everything associated with Vore except weight gain and hyper parts.” She listed, though the response was rather rehearsed. “I've been asked for a full kink list a lot. It's usually never complete.”

‘I’m gonna have a lot of work on my hands with you ain’t I?’ Satou thought.

Sonya chuckled across the connection. “Not to worry. I'm well aware that request work takes time, and can't always be worked on due to higher priorities. For a lifetime of not being able to pay for art commissions, it's a lesson in patience I learned early on.”

‘And something a lot of Video Game designers I used to know desperately needed to learn.’ Satou added to which Sonya chuckled.

“Ah. Reminds me of that time I made a boss rush game from online gifs. It was a shitty game I never actually released. Cuz I'm kinda defeatist.” Sonya admitted.

‘You have no idea how many times ideas were made like that and never saw the light of day.’Satou stated as Sonya sighed.

“Yeah… It's gonna be one of my pre-displaced regrets. That, and never beating Supreme Calamitas.” Sonya joked to raise levity.

‘There are many regrets we’ll have in this life, but it’s what we do with what we have left that matters.’ Satou responded before adding. ‘Anyway, it’ll be a few hours before we reach the Empire so if you want to rest and get some sleep; you might as well.’

Sonya yawned, though she turned it into a cute "Nya" while she stretched. “Alright, Master.” She made sure her tone told him that was intentional.

Satou paused before he vocally spoke to Issac beside him. “Isaac, mind swapping places with Sonya?”

“I’m guessing you want to let her spend time getting to know you better, Sure.” Isaac responded before climbing into the back of the cart and saying to Sonya. “Hey, my dad wants you up next to him, you might as well take the chance.”

Sonya giggled. "Well alright." She heads up front, stepping as quiet as a cat past the others. Once she was up there, she sat by his side. "Something you wanted to say in person?"

“I thought it may be nicer for you to sit at the front, and besides,” Satou said as he wrapped a blanket around her. “You are both my guest; and temporary newest “pet”, so there is no harm in treating my little kitten right.” Sonya giggled in response.

"How thoughtful~." She purred. She leaned over him, laying her head on his lap. "Thanks. I'll really owe you a lot after this, huh? Already thinking a Mech will do nicely." She said as she closed her eyes.

Satou didn’t respond as he just rubbed the back of Sonya’s neck while they continued on their way to the Crystal Empire. He looked back at the cargo seats to see Frostine asleep with Isaac resting his head against Eliza’s shoulder who Satou assumed was meditating.

Sonya began waking up on her own as the Empire came close. So many minds coming in close proximity disturbed her, and she was forced to go through her old training exercise to shut them all out. She groaned as she sat up, holding her head. "Ugh. Great, now I'm super horny. Stupid psychic powers showing me everything these meatheads are thinking…"

Satou didn’t respond as he continued slowly rubbing the back of Sonya’s head. Sonya was appreciative, and soon her headache went away. “Feeling any better?” Satou asked calmly as he looked down at Sonya. Sonya nodded and smiled at him.

"Yeah. Just wasn't prepared to ward off the minds my powers would listen to. Should be smooth sailing from here."

“As long as you're okay, that's all that matters.” Satou responded as he stopped rubbing her neck.

As they came up to the gate, Sonya began to put on an act- or maybe it wasn't. Regardless, she allowed the collar to work its influence.

Eliza leans at the edge, watching every caribou or ponies doing their thing. Push herself back to a layback position as she watched the sky but occasionally glanced at Sonya observantly.

The group stopped at the gates, multiple guards began to swarm the cart before stopping as one said. “Don’t even bother, he goes right in.”

“You sure? Isn’t that against the rules?” A second guard responded.

“I’m sorry for this, Sir Pendragon. He’s new on the job.” The first guard responded. “Head right in with whatever you’ve got with you.”

“You know, if you're too lenient, someday things might go wrong.” Satou responded.

“Maybe it will, but I don’t think today's that day.” The caribou guard responded before looking at Sonya, he seemed to lick his lips. “The only new thing I can see is this cute Abyssinian slave you’ve acquired, and I can’t see any issues with her. None at all, she’s just purrfect.”

Sonya gave a cute little meow in response, adding in a little purr as she raised one of her tails to stroke the caribou's chin. Although the show of affection only lasted a few seconds, she made sure she left a positive impression.

The guard didn’t say anything else and just chuckled before the gate opened behind him. He waved Satou in. “The others did make me aware that a certain annoying former owner keeps trying to break into your home. He’s been kicked out each time, but he may appear again.”

“Thanks for the warning.” Satou responded as the cart began to move forward into the Empire. They passed through the gate to find the street slowly clearing of most erotic activities as he and Dainn had agreed.

One of the few things that were happening was a single male trying to grab hold of a nearby mare before stopping as he received glares from those around him. Sonya definitely took notice of this, and looked at Satou, assuming he was responsible to some degree.

“Not telling.” Satou responded with a smirk. Sonya just chuckled and returned to purring. As soon as she saw the Crystal Cocks, she narrowed her eyes. She could put two and two together based on their name. She glanced around, but seeing way too many people around, chose to do nothing for now. She was, however, beginning to drip constantly on her seat, and began squirming from lust. "Nng.. those things are… really effective…" She whispered to Satou.

“Just try and stay calm okay.” Satou responded as he rubbed Sonya’s neck again, slowly moving down her back. As much as it helped, Sonya really couldn't help it. Her hands twitch every few seconds, which was a clear indication of just how bad she wanted to cum.

Satou didn’t respond at least a moment before looking at her and said. “If you need me, just say.” Sonya huffed, gritting her teeth to hold back her lust.

"...I need to rub one off…" Sonya whispered. "I can't hold back much longer. I was not prepared for this."

Satou didn’t respond instantly, switching hands he was using to control the cart before reaching down between Sonya’s legs. “Do you want my help?”

Sonya nodded. "Y-yes… please…" She begged. Her face hid nothing. She was getting desperate.

Satou only nodded before pushing his fingers into Sonya’s groin slowly, rubbing the inside her groin sinking his fingers deeper; slowly moving them around. She moaned eagerly. It didn't take long for her to speak up to comment.

"Ooh wow… It feels so much better than when I had a dick." She said with a hitch of her voice.

Satou didn’t respond as he dug his fingers as deep as he could, brought his finger and thumb up against where he assumed Sonya’s clitoris would be before squeezing them around it slowly rubbing it between them. Sonya's moans grew louder in response. She soon came, and her body tensed up as she rode it out. Breathing deep, she managed a quick "Thank you" before she laid her head in his lap again.

“Not a problem.” Satou responded with a smile, pulled his hand away placing both back on the reins controlling the cart. His finger and thumb were sticky and got a bit on the rein.

Eliza stood up. “I got something to do, I'll see you later.” Then vanish like static on a tv before fading.

Sonya stared at the spot Eliza had just left in surprise, uttering a very confused "What?".

“I have no idea.” Satou responded. Sonya shrugged it off and resumed cuddling up to Satou.

“You do realise that we will need to clean this mess up so it’s suitable for any other… visitors.” Satou responded as he rubbed the back of Sonya’s neck.

"Hmm? Oh, yeah. The matter Manipulator has an upgrade that allows it to collect liquids. Just use that." Sonya pointed out.

“How do I even use it?” Satou asked before adding with a chuckle. “This would be a good time for a tutorial to appear in front of me.”

He then paused as a small flashing symbol in the shape of a question mark appeared in the corner of his vision before a screen flicked up that read: The matter Manipulator acts much like a gun, but with a neural interface where you decide how it acts. To toggle modes, think of which mode you want to use. To use it, aim and pull the trigger. The smart targeting technology will only pick up what you want it to pick up.

Satou saw a small pulsating arrow at the side of the message which he gestured with a small movement of his finger, it flicked over almost like a book turning a page. He saw what looked to be an image that consisted of multiple grids, with the words below reading: There are six tabs in the Inventory menu, which can be accessed by viewing the manipulator from the side, as displayed below. Each grid square can hold up to 100 counts of whatever you place in it. The manipulator automatically sorts all matter placed in it's inventory, but you may choose how it's sorted. The picture showed the manipulator first being pointed forward, then turned to view it from its left face, where the menu was shown.

Satou looked over the message a few times making sure he understood it before closing the message and looking down to Sonya. “I just want to check, your token works like the one you use correct?”

"Yes, it does. It even comes with a starter inventory. Should have at least 3 upgrade modules you can apply as you want. And some basic crafting stations like the Inventor's table, furnace, Anvil, Workbench, and Apothecary."

“What are these upgrade modules?” Satou asked as he listened to her and focused on the road, still rubbing her neck with his hand, parts of Sonya’s fur sticking together under Satou’s touch.

"They're made to expand the base capabilities of the Matter Manipulator. Check the upgrade menu." She demonstrates how, by turning hers to face skyward.

“I’ll need you to lead me through that when we have time.” Satou responded.

"Alright then. I'll see about making something for you on my manipulator when we get where we're going. I think it'll come in really handy if you can find some good fuel for it." Sonya said. Her hips started to rub against each other with increasing lust after this. Seemed the effect was hitting her again.

“I’ll have to ask what you mean by fuel.” Satou responded as they continued on their way towards their home. “If you need anything from me just ask. Okay.”

"...Alright. The effect is hitting me again…" Sonya admitted.

“Do you want some help now or can you hold out this time?” Satou asked, looking down at her for a second.

"I think I got it this time. I should last until I get to bed." Sonya assured, with a bit of a blush on her face.

“No worries then.” Satou responded, looking forward again before adding. “If you need me at any point just ask and I'll try my best to help.”

"Thanks." Sonya went back to resting her head on his leg as they continued on towards the mansion.

As the group approached the mansion, Satou looked to Sonya. “Looks like we’re home… What do you think?”

Sonya raised an eyebrow, impressed as she looked it over from the front. "This is a pretty big place. How'd you get it?"

“The king gave me the place for free.” Satou responded calmly. “I suppose he wanted me to live somewhere that placed me above others.”

"Huh. Strangely generous." She remarked.

“That's something I can agree with.” Satou responded with a nod as the cart entered the mansion road, moving it behind the house to the barn. They parked inside and everyone climbed off, with Frostine unholstering the two mares before closing the door behind them, and walked towards the house.

However, Satou stops, looking back at where he and Sonya had been sitting to see a large damp spot on the seat. He reached into his bag, pulling out Sonya’s token. ‘So how did the tutorial say to do this again?’ Satou thought to himself. Holding the token towards the damp spot, he ‘will’ juices on the seat to be sucked up and pulls the trigger, the machine gives a soft glow. A lightning-like beam emitted from it, arcing forth to strike the mess, before said mess promptly vanished in a burst of pixels. These pixels then floated towards the manipulator, flowing into the lens on the front. All of this took less than a second to complete.

As soon as it was done Satou rubbed his hand over where the spot had been to find it completely dry with no marks remaining on the seat.

While Satou was doing this, Sonya took the time to appreciate the scenery at first. However, she did grab out her Manipulator and started going through screens it displayed. She stopped at one displaying a modular mech equip screen.

“What are you doing?” Satou asked as he caught up to Sonya. Sonya flipped the screen over, not answering for now. She goes through a crafting menu, before selecting one titled Mech Part Assembly Station.

"Just making something you could use. And you can store it in your manipulator when you aren't using it." She scowled at the greyed out craft button and sighed. "Or I would be if I had some fucking Durasteel. Damnit…"

“Durasteel?” Satou asked as he looked at her curiously. “What's that and what can you use it for?”

Sonya put her manipulator back in her tail. "Basically, an extremely tough metal in my world that's stronger than titanium. Typically found on irradiated planets, I would need special equipment to even survive long enough to get any. Equipment I don't have yet."

“That's a shame, I was wondering what you were trying to do. But I guess It’ll be a surprise if you can ever manage it.” Satou responded as he looked back into the cart to find Isaac still asleep. He carefully put Issac on his back, allowing him to rest his head on his shoulder as he gave him a piggyback.

"Just a mech part assembly station. And mech part Equipper. Though all the basic recipes already on the Assembly table require titanium, Durasteel or some other materials from my world, you can still make your own blueprints." Sonya explained.

“I see, I’ll have to get you to teach me how to use that later then.” Satou responded.

"Eh. It's as easy as plugging in the Manipulator and using the crafting interface." Sonya stated as she headed in. She soon came across Eliza talking to four maids in the entrance room.

"Oh hey, whatcha doing?" Sonya asked, curious.

Eliza turned to face Sonya and gestured to the maids who bowed their heads and walked away. “We were discussing schedules.”

"Schedules? What for?" Sonya asked. She was beginning to ask questions of the curious sort. One may hope curiosity doesn't get this cat killed.

“Since these maids and butlers are going to be working around here, I might as well give them different tasks or similar. It keeps me busy at least.” Eliza responds as she spotted one of the maids walking by and gave a simple “Hi!” before heading off with Eliza marking something on her clipboard.

"Sounds good to me. At least I have the Alicorns helping me organize everything going on in my world." Sonya said, leaning on a table with a vase. She was careful though and didn't knock it off.

“I see,” Eliza said as she looked through an open path to see two maids cleaning up the lounge room, she wrote something on the clipboard again before continuing. “Well…” She stopped as she was looking in another direction, mentally distracted.

"Though, my question is, what is it about you that prevents my mind from reaching yours? You some kind of Android?" Sonya asked.

“11 percent nanomachine but was classified as me being android while the rest is human. However, I was created with the ability to not be affected by outside mental abilities such as telepathy. However; I can sense when someone attempts to me. Does that help?” Eliza replied again.

Sonya nods. "Yeah, it answers a few questions. Nanotech, you say? Mind if I get a scan of it so I can work on my own blueprints?" She asked with a curious expression.

“Sorry, creator had put a scan blocker on anything he created. That includes the nanomachines inside me.” Eliza apologized.

"Fair enough, I suppose." Sonya shrugged, not taking it personally. "Do you have any idea where the Alicorns of this world went?"

“Yes.” Eliza began, then raised an eyebrow. “Why?”

"Just curious, because I don't exactly see them giving up their freedom at any point. As I know them, they'd sooner run for it than give up their freedom, if a battle isn't an option."

“The caribou is only able to control the Frozen North, I think it's because of Satou that they haven’t gone further out yet.” Eliza guessed.

“I don’t think I’m the only reason for that,” Satou responded as he walked towards the group, “That wave may be accounting for it as well.”

“Sounds better...” Eliza turns to Satou. “Also, welcome back, I’ve been waiting here since you went to training.” She stopped as she looked into the lounge room and the maids still working; which is written on her clipboard again.

Sonya raised an eyebrow. "Wave?" She asked.

“How to explain it...” Satou said to himself. “Think of it like a boss battle in a game, it’s a large wave of monsters, hence the name that appears from nowhere. I don’t know anything more about it though, we only experienced one a few days ago, but Dainn did say he had. One occurred in his home before they fled to Equestria.”

Sonya stood there confused for a second. But then something clicked. "Hey… you wouldn't happen to have The Gamer's UI, would you?" She asked Satou.

“The what?” Eliza asked in confusion. “What’s ‘The Gamer’s UI’?”

"Basically when you have floating text managing everything around you in a similar style to a video game. Except it also lets you put points into things that end up directly affecting your performance, such as resistance, stamina, dexterity… things like that. Some also have a bottomless inventory they can stick items in… and a lot of items can have buffs to the gamer that others won't be able to use unless the gamer has the ability to share his UI with a party system." Sonya took a breath after that explanation.

Satou didn’t respond instantly as he looked at Sonya curiously before he spoke up. “Are you sure you don’t know more about me than… well me.”

Sonya chuckled. "I read a lot of Displaced fics before I became one. And anyway, it would explain why mental interaction with you feels so… Stiff for lack of a better word."

“If that’s an innuendo for something, I’m disappointed.” Satou replied. Sonya rolled her eyes in answer.

"No, but it is a metaphor. Kinda hard to describe mental interactions, really. Every mind is different." Sonya replied.

“Unless you're most Caribou, then they would almost all be the same.” Satou responded with a shrug of his shoulders. “By that; I mean non-existent.”

Eliza sighed and asked Satou and Sonya. “Is there anything you need from me? If not then I will take my leave.”

"I suppose not." Sonya replied. She turned to Satou. "You?"

“Right now I don’t believe so, but I bet you have a lot of things you need to sort around here.” Satou responded.

Eliza paused for a bit before looking towards Sonya. “Your planning to stay here for a bit are you?”

Sonya nods. "Time flows differently between worlds, but thanks to the contract I wrote, I have a hell of a lot of time I can spend here."

“There's a free room you can use for your stay, thing is that it’s next door to mine and two doors from Satou. If you are interested in it.”

“And I see no issue with you spending as long as you like here.” Satou added with a calm smile.

Sonya smiled. "Thanks. I'll go ahead and get myself acquainted." She said. She then frowned. "...Is that the right word? Eh. Whatever." She started to head off, presumably to explore the mansion.

Eliza spotted a crystal pony mare wearing a maid outfit. She called her over and she answered. “I want you to be by Sonya’s side, she is a guest here. If she needs something like food; drink or medical; things like that, you do your job. But remember the rules, okay Marble Stone.”

“As you wish miss.” Marble Stone bowed before running for Sonya.

“You know Eliza, if you want to act like the head maid, I’m sure we could get you a uniform for the role.” Satou responded with a smirk.

“Hah haha; very funny.” Eliza just rolled her eyes. “I’m doing it because I don’t trust you, Isaac, Frostine, Sunny or Sapphire to do a proper job. Thought it would be nice to have something to do.”

“And I wouldn’t trust anyone else with the task.” Satou responded. “Also for the record, I was serious about the uniform.”

“Nope.” Eliza answered, peeling off a circle sticker and slapped it on Satou's forehead with a D- on it. “D minus.” She stated with a smirk that actual emanated feeling.

“Really?” Satou responded, pulling the sticker off his head. “Where did you get that?”

“Not telling.” Eliza said as she started walking to the central dining room.

“Fine.” Satou responded with a sigh. “I’m going to get some rest anyway, I get a feeling I’m going to need the energy.”

Eliza stopped just inches away from the line between rooms. Recollecting something as she gave a sudden “Oh!” and she looked back to Satou. “I almost forgot. King Dainn wanted to see you at the palace today, something about a testing Collar. The one you mention to him I think, he wanted your approval. Since it's your idea after all.”

“Did he give you a time for me to meet him?” Satou asked curiously.

“Right after you come back but you can go tomorrow morning instead, he said either one will work.”

Satou paused for a moment before answering. “It’s better I do something like that when I’m wide awake, I’m in no state after that journey back here. If you could send a message to him and tell him I’ll meet tomorrow morning.”

“I’m not your messenger, Satou. The only reason I’m telling you this is because he actually came here while you were out training with the others.”

“We really need to get a messenger or a way to transfer messages between us.” Satou responded. Eliza shrugged as she walked away. Satou slowly walked towards his room. “I’ll figure something out.”

Sonya eventually stopped to talk with the maid that followed her. "So uh. Why are you following me?" She asked, curious. Though she didn't simply read her mind, because that'd be rude.

“Miss Eliza requested me to assist you while you're here, Miss Sonya.” Crystal pony mare answered with a chipper tone.

"Ah. How nice. I definitely could use help finding my room." Sonya admitted sheepishly.

“If you follow me.” Marble Stone gestured with an open palm to the stairs just a few feet away before walking towards it. Sonya just began following silently, still embarrassed to have to ask.

Reaching the top steps they turned right and walked past six doors with one door being far apart from the others; before reaching one door. Marble Stone stopped and did the same gesture to the door with a bow. “Here we are, Miss.”

Sonya smiled. "Thank you. Now, before I retire for the night, I've been hearing about some rules or whatever from the passing thought every now and then. Could you explain these rules to me? As a law enforcement officer, I feel I should know."

“Do you have permit papers of such claims?” Marble Stone asked as she pulled out her own clipboard that wasn’t present before.

Sonya nodded and showed her Matter Manipulator. "This is both my ultimate tool and my badge. Here's the document proving my graduation." Sonya tapped a few buttons, and sure enough, a hard light screen appeared, showing the certificate of graduation. One flick to the side showed a certificate of ownership for a Protector's vessel and the name of her assigned starship.

Marble looked confused and a little nervous while reading it. “Um, you sure this is real? Cause some of it sounds… ‘made up’.”

Sonya nodded. "These are from my world. The Protectorate is… Well, was the universe's peacekeeping force in my world until the Ruin came and wiped them all out. As the last surviving protector, it's my duty to help the Protectorate rise from the ashes and rebuild what was lost. And to destroy the Ruin before it accomplishes its goal of destroying all life everywhere." Sonya explained.

Marble blinked at this. “Oh. But what does that have to do with the rules around here?”

"So I know what rules to follow," Sonya replied. "And so that I'm not ignorant of them."

“It’s best that mister Satou explains the empire rules but if you're talking about the workers here then I would know… Sorry miss.” Marble bow in apologies.

"I see. Alright. One last thing… Do you mind getting me a pop tart if there are any in this world?" Sonya asked.

The mare sheepishly chuckled. “We don’t have pop tart here… I don’t think I ever heard one before.”

"Aw. That's alright, I'll just have to get some more when I get home." Sonya said reassuringly. "But I'll write up a recipe for toaster pastries tomorrow."

“If you need me I will be between both your and Eliza room.” The crystal mare said before leaving. Sonya nodded and headed to her room, enjoying a fresh bed for the night.
