Pinkamena 8
"Vala's Coming"
Previous ChapterTwilight left the shower and used her magic to dry herself off. Sighing happily, she looked back and watched Psyche step out. "I think I'll check on those new slaves."
When the griffin was fully out, Twilight used her magic to dry her off, too. "And, I have some training to do."
The mare smiled at her lover and turned around, flicking her tail to the side as she trotted out of the bathroom. Psyche stared at her pony puss as she left, chuckling. In one quick movement, the griff sped forward towards the unicorn and grabbed her tail. Pulling her close, she slipped one left talon inside the mare while she used her right talons to rub the mare's neck.
"I'm supposed to be the tease, babe," Psyche cooed.
Twilight moaned and tilted her head back. "I know. I was hoping you'd do this..."
Psyche leaned in and kissed her deeply as she sped up her movements. It isn't long before she felt pony juices hit her fur. "Mmm..." she moaned, before breaking the kiss. "I expect you to give back ten times as much tonight."
Twilight panted softly and let out a brief laugh. "Oh, you don't have to worry about that," she huffed, walking away while dripping on the floor. "I'll rock your world." As she past the bed, she patted Ash on the side and left the room.
Psyche watched her leave with a chuckle. "You already have, Twilight."
The second Twilight left the room, she was greeted by Void. "Mistress," she said with a concerned look. "There's a... problem with one of the new arrivals."
"Problem?" Twilight asked, making her way down the hall with the black mare following beside her. "What sort of problem?"
"Well..." Void started. "It'll be easier if I showed you."
Twilight chuckled a little. "Guess it's a good thing I was on my way down there, anyways."
As they trotted along, Void kept her gaze forward. "So... if I may ask, mistress... how is it? Being married to Psyche, I mean?"
Twilight eyed her with a smile before looking ahead again. "Never be afraid to ask me anything, Void. Things are different now."
"I understand," the black mare replied politely. "Guess I'm still used to the old way."
"It's alright," the unicorn reassured. "We're all still adjusting. After all, it's only been a year since we got married."
3 Years Ago...
Twilight entered her bedroom to find Psyche laying on her bed, her left wing messy and bent at an awkward angle. "How are you... feeling?"
The griffin eyed her before resting her head on the bed. "You mean, after your rebels shot me out of the sky? Oh, I'm just fuckin' peachy, thanks."
The unicorn's ears drooped slightly like a scared cat as she slowly approached the bed. "I didn't want to hurt you, but... I had no choice. We couldn't let you escape and hurt anyone else." The griffin kept silent. "I just want you to know that... you really did grow on me after all these years. Aside from the beatings and the whippings... it's been fun."
When the griffin didn't say anything, Twilight turned and headed for the door. Before leaving, she took one last look back at Psyche. Realizing that she was probably gonna get the silent treatment for a while, she left the room and closed the door. Turning around, she saw her pets (Ash Brew, a gray earth pony; Pale Light, a white unicorn; Blue Bell, a blue earth pony; and Misty Days, a green pegasus) and the castle's scientist, Void, a black unicorn. Others present included Psyche's maids along with Wind Whip, the castle's flogger.
"What's the next step?" Void asked. "What do we do now?"
Twilight thought for a moment as she looked around at the crowd. "We keep what we're doing. The pay is good, after all, and this place needs to be kept up. We rebuild... readjust. Only target those who have committed crimes to be slaves, reconditioned as pets. Any innocents will be left alone. Any innocents we currently have will be released. Any of you who wish to leave may do so."
Void looked around at the pets and maids. "We've all been conditioned by Psyche for years. I doubt we could function in a normal society."
"Besides, I wouldn't mind working for a mare like you," a random maid called out.
Wind Whip looked over at her with a breathy chuckle as she leaned against the wall. "And, I wouldn't be against flogging slaves for you... mistress Twilight."
"What about Psyche?" Another maid called out.
Twilight looked at the faces of the crowd, all seemingly curious to what their new master's answer would be. "Psyche..." she announced at a volume that, unbeknownst to her, Psyche could hear through the door. "shall remain here. Once she's healed up, I'll work with her. Hopefully, get her to see things differently. I could really use her help around here."
"Is that really the best thing to do?" Misty asked. "After what she's done?"
"Psyche is not to be harmed, period," Twilight said sternly. "This has been her home for years, and I'd like it to remain her home. And mine. And yours. Now, Windy?" She said, looking at Wind Whip. "Are you on board?"
The flogger shrugged. "Whatever you want, mistress. As long as I get to whip some bitches."
"Good," the unicorn replied. "If anyone, besides me, tries to enter the room... 50 lashes."
Wind chuckled with an evil grin. "You got it, mistress."
There were a couple murmurs amongst the group as Twilight took a step forward. "This isn't because I don't trust you or because I enjoy hurting you. Most of you probably want her dead, and I don't blame you or hold it against you. Wind Whip is just a precaution because I don't want any more harm to come to Psyche. Am I understood?" She looked out at the crowd to see a bunch of hesitant nods. "Good. Now, I'll be in Psyche's, uh... I'll be in my room," she said as she turned and headed towards the room that was once the griffin's.
"You were very protective of her," Void said with a light smile.
Twilight chuckled and nodded. "I took a big risk with her. I just correctly assumed that no one's ever been nice to her."
Now, it was Void's turn to chuckle. "Who could be nice to some griff like that?"
The unicorn smiled. "If it wasn't for you and all of the others in this castle, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to show her kindness. You all deserve as much credit as I do."
"Always the humble one," Void teased as they neared the cells.
Twilight playfully bumped her with a soft laugh. "Now, where's the troublemaker?"
"Down here," Void said as she led her mistress past a row of cells before stopping at the last one. "This one was captured yesterday. Rather easily, I might add."
Twilight approached the cell door. Inside was a brown stallion sitting in the corner, his hoof moving along the wall as if he were drawing something. "Hello?" Twilight called, tapping the bars with her hoof. "You causin' problems, pet?"
The stallion slid his hoof off the wall and looked back at her, his mouth stained with blood and a crazed look in his eye. Before Twilight could react, he charged the wall to his right with such force that blood splattered the wall.
"What the shit?!" Twiligh exclaimed, quickly grabbing the cell key hanging up on the wall. There was a few more crack sounds as the stallion continuously rammed his head into the wall. The last one made a wet snap sound before he fell limp. Twilight finally unlocked the door and ran in, letting out a deep sigh. "What the hell just happened?" She asked, staring at the corpse.
"I'd say he chose death over a life as a pet, but... look," Void said, pointing at the corner of the cell where the once-alive stallion was seated.
Twilight looked at the mare, then at the corner, letting out a soft gasp. Written in blood was VALA'S COMING. "What... the hell?"
"Who's Vala?" Asked the black mare, just as confused as the purple one.
The unicorn shook her head. "I have no idea. Where was he captured?"
"U-Uh..." Void stammered, before grabbing the clipboard hanging on the wall. "Um... Hollow Shades."
Twilight's heart skipped a beat. "Hollow Shades? Just outside Manehattan?"
Void nodded, not that Twilight could see. "Yes, mistress. Isn't that where..."
"Pinkamena and May now live." Twilight finished, turning around and leaving the cell. "Why is Pinkie always involved?"
"Are you going to Manehattan?" The black mare asked as she quickly hung up the clipboard and followed the unicorn.
"I need to research this Vala first," Twilight replied, making her way back up the stairs. "I'll have to send some pony to Manehattan to warn Pinkie and May. Make sure they're on their guard."
"What shall I do, mistress?" Void asked.
"Just go about your normal duties," Twilight told her. "I need to go inform my other half about the situation."
Psyche was currently paddling the flanks of one of the new pets in training. Her gaze went to the door when she spotted her wife entering. The room smelled of sex as many an orgasm happened here. The mare being paddled shrieked with each SMACK, either out of pain or pleasure. It was unclear.
"How goes the training?" Twilight asked as she approached the griffin.
Psyche whacked the mare's ass again and shrugged. "Dunno. Can't tell if she's in pain or if she likes it."
Twilight let out a brief chuckle. "Hey, uh... something happened."
Psyche managed to get one more SMACK in before her ears twitched. "Something happened?"
The purple mare nodded. "One of the newest pets, the one from Hollow Shades... killed himself."
"And?" The griffin asked, giving another hard SMACK. "I've had a lot of slaves kill themselves. What's so special about this one?"
"He scrawled a name on the wall in his own blood," Twilight exclaimed. "Vala. Chewed the flesh off his foreleg to do it, too."
Psyche stopped what she was doing and froze for a second. "Vala," she repeated. "I've heard that name before..." She then looked at Twilight. "You're a book nerd. In the library, there's a book about famous cultists from the past. I think I saw the name in there."
"A cultist?" Twilight asked, getting more nervous. "Or a cult? Either way, this... is bad."
"Wait, Hollow Shades," Psyche said in thought as she dropped the paddle and proceeded to finger the pet mare's winking pussy. "That's near Manehattan. And, you think that..."
"Pinkie's involved, yes," Twilight confirmed.
Psyche felt a splash of sweet-smelling juices on her leg before she pulled her wet talon free. "We can't let anything happen to her. I love that pink bitch."
Twilight smiled as she watched the pet collapsed in a panting mess. "I love her, too. Though, she isn't a bitch anymore," she said, before turning and trotting away.
Psyche watched her leave before looking down at the mare. "You fucking slut."
