Chapters Windy and Shy: Cruise Controlled
Flying down the highway in her polychromatic convertible, Windy and Evershy sped towards the harbor under the summer sun.
“Easy, Windy.” Evershy grabbed the seat as they changed lanes for the twelfth time in three miles. “
“Sorry, Shy.” Windy laughed as she expertly weaved the vehicle through traffic with all of two fingers on the wheel. “I’m just excited. This is the first trip you and I have been on in years.”
“I’m excited too.” Evershy adjusted her crooked glasses. “All the more reason to get there alive .”
Evershy squealed as Windy put her hoof to the pedal even more while they continued to race along. The suburban scenery soon turned to beautiful coastline and the air grew salty as they neared the docks. Pulling off the highway, Windy guided them to a multi-tiered parking structure and found a safe spot for her car on the third level from the roof. She lowered the canvas top and activated the alarm while Evershy got their luggage from the small trunk. Down the elevator to the ground level they traveled, embarking on the lengthy hike to pier number eleven where their vessel awaited. Their goal was the Radiance of the Sea, a privately owned cruise ship that was playing host to a weeklong ocean voyage exclusively for the fairer sex. As they neared pier eleven, they could see the long line of guests waiting to board and took their spot at its end.
“Quite the turnout.” Windy peered down the line.
“This is a lovely ship.” Evershy beheld the stunning craft which spanned 200 meters in length and 40 meters in breadth. “This was so nice of our girls to set up for us.”
“Good to know they still think about their moms, huh?” Windy chuckled.
“I don’t get to see Fluttershy much since she started college.” Evershy sighed in reflective thought. “The house feels a little empty now that she and Zephyr are gone.”
“It has its advantages.” Windy elbowed her. “Now that the house is empty, Bow and I have been getting pretty… experimental .”
“Windy.” Evershy shook her head with a restrained smile.
“What?” She shrugged. “Life is too short for hang-ups; I see that more than ever now that I’m tap-dancing on 42.” She grabbed Evershy’s shoulders and jostled her back and forth. “Same goes for you , you need to get loose.”
“Okay.” Evershy giggled as she held her glasses steady. “I’ll keep that in mind.”
The line moved slowly but surely as the guests signed in and boarded. Finally getting to the front; they were offered room keys, a map of the ship’s layout and a schedule of activities. They headed up the boarding steps and proceeded to lower deck 2, room number 17. While they walked the ship, they began to notice that all the crew members they passed were younger guys wearing little more than shorts and hats.
“That’s some uniform.” Windy critiqued, noticing that some of the guys’ shorts were more ill-fitting than others. They were nice enough though, waving and offering their salutations as the ladies walked along. When they reached the room, Evershy slid the key card and pushed the door open.
“Oh my.” She looked over the quaint cabin. A pair of twin beds rested against the far side of the rear wall. A dresser sat against the wall across from the beds with a 30 inch flat screen atop its surface. An opened door to the right led to an adjacent sitting room with a couch, two chairs, second television, coffee table and kitchenette with a sink, microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker. The door to their left led to the bathroom which consisted of a dual sink vanity, toilet and oversized shower. Lastly, between the beds was a night table with a long bodied lamp, phone and directory card.
“Cozy.” Windy wheeled her luggage to the foot of the farthest bed. “Dibs.” She spread her arms and wings, falling back onto the mattress. “Not bad, a little stiff but nothing a few elbow drops won’t fix.” She rolled onto her side and watched Evershy unpack. “So, what should we do first?”
“Well, the schedule says there will be an official ‘welcome aboard’ delivered by the ship’s lead cruise director.” She read. “We should hear what he has to say.”
“Okay.” Windy bounced off the bed and onto her hooves. “Let’s get moving, I don’t want to waste a minute.”
The duo ascended back to the main deck and headed for the bow where the event was scheduled. They stood around for nearly an hour, just talking and watching the area fill up with dozens of other guests. Crew members began to appear as well and soon a voice spoke out over the loud speaker.
“Ten minutes till departure.” The voice informed. “All hands and guests, welcome aboard the Radiance of the Sea.” As the loudspeaker ceased, a figure made his presence known on the above deck that overlooked the main deck. A black stallion in full, nautical regalia with a white great coat that flowed down to his hooves; he held a microphone to his lips as he bowed before the assembly below.
“Ladies, welcome aboard.” He began, his smooth voice flowing from the P.A. system. “My name is Solstice, lead director of this ship and right hand to the captain.” He stood up straight and smiled down at every creature. “Speaking of whom, this ship is helmed by Captain North Star.” He gestured towards the bridge; the silhouette of another stallion could be seen waving to them from behind the shaded glass. “Now then; this will be a week long voyage out into the beautiful Atlantic and you can be assured that we have more than enough food, drink and entertainment to fill every second. Some of you have been with us before, so for those that are new, I would like to offer these words. This ship is about indulgence and I welcome you to do so to your heart’s content. The staff here is at your disposal to see to your every need and want. Please seek them out; no question is too simple and no request is too outlandish. Ladies such as yourselves deserve to be celebrated and life is not just for the young to live; so live and make this a trip you will remember.” He lowered the mic and bowed again as the crowd applauded and registered their excitement. As his speech ended, cart pushing crew members began to wander the deck, offering drinks to the guests.
“Hello ladies.” A sharp eyed griffon pushed his cart closer to them. “Care for a drink?” He gestured over a set of disposable cups containing a lime green drink with pinkish swirls.
“What’s this?” Windy asked as she took one of the cups.
“It’s the ship's specialty.” He informed. “We call it the Breath of Fresh Air.”
“Catchy.” She snickered.
“Is it alcoholic?” Evershy asked.
“It can be.” He reached down with a laugh and produced a bottle of rum.
“Now we’re talking.” Windy held her cup out. “Hit me, sweetie.”
“Can do.” He generously spiked her drink. “And you, ma’am?”
“No, this is fine.” Evershy waved the bottle away with a smile.
Windy took a swig as he moved on and swished the drink in her mouth before swallowing. “Not too shabby.” She sucked her teeth. “Could use some sweetener.”
Evershy took a mild sip of hers. “Fruity, but a little rough for my tastes.”
“Well come on, let’s get the party started.” Windy put her arm around Evershy’s waist and pulled her along.
They spent a few hours meandering the vessel, grabbing a bite at one of the satellite restaurants and hanging out over a few glasses of wine at the bar. By now the ship was well out at sea and the shore had long since vanished in the distance. The air cooled as the sun began to sink for the day so they decided to return to their cabin to change into something warmer. The distinct sounds of panting could be heard as they rounded the port side corner of the third tier deck and they stopped in their tracks at the sight of one of the guests having sex with a member of the crew. The mare was seated on the metal railing, her dress wide open as the stallion took her. Her arms were around his neck, her face contorted in ecstasy as she pleaded for more.
“Oh dear.” Evershy quickly averted her eyes.
“Wow, they weren’t kidding about the service around here.” Windy smirked.
“Let’s uh… go this way instead.” Evershy grabbed her wrist and pulled her back around the corner. They went back the way they came and traveled down to the main deck on the starboard side of the ship. Passing one of the pools, they stopped again as they saw a griffon lying out on a long beach chair with a pegasi’s head buried between her thighs. “Again?” Evershy’s face reddened as she looked down.
“Okay, have sex in front of me once, shame on you. Have sex in front of me twice… and something weird is going on.” Windy grabbed the back of Evershy’s dress and pulled her head up.
“Let’s just get back to the cabin.” She hurried along, holding her gaze dead ahead.
They managed to make it to the room without running into another show. As they went in, Windy sat on the edge of her bed and hummed in thought. “Hey Shy, do you still have the pamphlet for this place?”
“Yes, Fluttershy put it in my purse.” Evershy retrieved her purse from the dresser and pulled out the tri-fold advertisement.
“Lemme see.” Windy held her hand out. She was given the ad and opened it up to start reading. “Ah, I see.” She folded it back up and winged it over onto Evershy’s bed with a grin.
“What?”
“Our little girls basically booked us a trip on the No-Tell Motel of the seas.”
“What!?” Evershy snatched up the ad and looked it over.
“The whole thing is filled with innuendo.” Windy sat back on her palms. “Fluttershy is too innocent to pick up on that stuff and I doubt Dashie made it past the front cover before she just agreed with the idea.” She laughed.
“This isn’t funny, Windy.” Evershy gave her a harsh glance.
“It kinda is, Shy.” Windy rebutted. “Besides, it isn’t the end of the world.”
“But every creature is going to be having sex out there.”
“So, it’s just sex.” Windy stood. “I’ve had it; you’ve had it… every creature has it.”
“Oh, I think I need another drink.” Evershy sat on her bed.
“Well, that’s what room service is for.” Windy went to the phone. “We can get whatever we want, this is all expense paid so we only have to cover booze and delivery.” She picked up the receiver. “What do you want; wine, something harder?” She bobbed her eyebrows. “Maybe a pizza with extra sausage ?”
“Windy.”
“I’m kidding.” Windy brushed off her stare. “Remember what I said about loosening up?” She ordered them a bottle of cabernet along with a vegetarian pizza. Twenty minutes later, a knock came at their door. Windy answered and accepted their order, tipping him a five for his trouble. Flipping the glasses, she poured them both some wine and brought the pizza over to Evershy’s bed. “Here you go; one sausage free pizza.”
“Thank you.” Evershy took up her glass and a slice.
“This is the way to live, huh?” Windy toasted her with the pizza slice.
Evershy laughed and brought her slice to Windy’s. “Sure is.”
With their stomachs full and the alcohol hitting them, they stayed in the cabin for the rest of the night. The next morning, Windy immediately went about making a pot of coffee for them to take the edge off of their leftover buzz.
“Just what the doctor ordered.” Windy handed Evershy a cup.
“Thanks.” She quickly began to drink.
“So, are you going to be able to handle it out there?” Windy chuckled as she sat beside her on the bed. “Cause your face was almost as red as your hair last night.”
“Of course I can.” Evershy said, half surely. “Like you said… it’s just sex. We can still enjoy the cruise, there are lots of things we can do on board.”
“That’s the spirit.” Windy patted her back and headed for the bathroom. “I’m going to change.”
Windy switched into her knee length, jean shorts that conformed to her toned legs, a white tee shirt that was honestly a size too small and her favorite short-sleeved, red jacket. Evershy wore her floral patterned, dual layered sun dress with 360° 4 inch frill trim that ran around the collar and shoulder line. They headed back up to the main deck and found the scene relatively normal and free of any scandalous activity.
“Morning ladies.” Another cart wielding crew member approached them. “No better way to start the day then with a Breath of Fresh Air.”
“Whoever came up with that name is very proud of themselves, aren’t they.” Windy laughed as she took another pair of the drinks. “Thanks.” She handed one to Evershy as he continued on his route. Windy downed hers rather quickly and wound up finishing Evershy’s as she still couldn’t develop a taste for the concoction. They spent the morning taking in some live music at the outdoor bandstand before catching brunch at around 10:30. As the day heated up, so did the guests as they observed more and more random pairings unabashedly going at it in full view. Evershy did her best to ignore the voyeur’s paradise around her as she and Windy carried on with their day.
“Hey there.” They stopped as they were approached by one of the crew; a lean, twenty something stallion whose fur was swirled with white and mocha like a freshly stirred cappuccino.
“Hi.” Evershy smiled politely as he stepped up to them.
“Sorry to just pop over like this.” He held out his hand. “I’m Daydream. You must be Mrs. Shy.”
“How did you know?” She asked as she took his hand.
“From the room registry.” He smiled. “Look, I hope this doesn’t sound weird but I noticed you when you came on board and I’ve wanted to introduce myself.”
“That’s not so weird.” She gestured back to Windy. “This is my friend, Windy.”
“Howdy.” She saluted.
“Nice to meet you.” He waved shortly. “Um, we’re supposed to keep ourselves free but I wanted to let you know that I would be happy to be your personal server on this trip.” He ran his eyes over Evershy’s pleasantly plump and curvy body. “You’re a first timer; so maybe I could help show you around, maybe grab a drink… or anything else you might want.” His grin belied the meaning behind his words.
“Oh.” Evershy realized she was being hit on and she made the unfortunate mistake of glancing down to see him running this thumb over the bulge in his shorts. She quickly raised her eyes back to his and smiled. As Windy watched the scene with amusement she felt a bizarre presence behind her.
“You must be…” A voice registered in her right ear.
“Mrs. Whistles.” A second voice finished in her left.
Rapidly turning, she found herself face to face with a pair of young griffons. They were twins, virtually identical save for three distinguishing features. The plumage on the head of the right griffon came down over his left eye and his white face was accented by a brown patch over his right eye. On the contrary, the plumage on the head of the left griffon came down over his right eye and his brown face was accented by a white patch over his left eye. They wore only spandex shorts, their effeminate bodies complete with narrow shoulders, slender arms and fairly curved hips.
“Whoa.” Windy absorbed the sight of them. “Hi there.”
“My name is Aron.” The one on the right introduced.
“My name is Nora.” The one on the left introduced.
“We’re pleased to…” Aron began.
“Meet you, ma’am.” Nora concluded.
“Okay.” Windy smiled. “It’s... nice to meet you too.”
“We would also like to offer…” Aron started.
“Our service to you.” Nora finished.
“Do you two always talk like that?” She asked candidly.
“Like what…” Aron tiled his head right.
“Mrs. Whistles.” Nora tilted his head left.
“Uh, never mind.” She laughed, finding the odd pair interesting.
“Windy.” Evershy decided to allow Daydream to give them more information and turned to let Windy know; she gasped at the sight of the eerie brothers.
“Oh, I see you met the twins.” Daydream chuckled.
“Sure did.” Windy nodded.
“Hello…” Aron stepped up to Evershy.
“Mrs. Shy.” Nora went to his side.
“Hello.” She waved nervously.
“This is Aron and Nora.” Windy put an arm around each of their necks. “Creepy huh?”
“That’s not very…” Aron looked up at her.
“Nice, Mrs. Whistles.” Nora did the same.
“Aw, I’m just messing with you.” Windy squeezed them. “I’d be happy to have you around.”
“Well, Daydream is coming with us too.” Evershy informed. “I figured he could at least let us know what’s going on.”
“My pleasure, ladies.” Daydream put his hands on Evershy’s shoulders.
“Yes, well...” She jumped forward as she felt something press into her butt. “Please, lead the way.” She motioned for him to walk in front. Daydream led them along, Evershy at his back and Windy bringing up the rear with a griffon on either side of her. “Daydream, to be honest, our daughters booked this trip for us and it’s apparent they didn’t really understand what this cruise was.”
“Oh.” He glanced back at her. “So, you didn’t know this was a… pleasure cruise?” He chuckled.
“No.” She shook her head. “I mean, Windy and I are married.”
“Well, congratulations.” He twisted back with a smile.
“Not to each other, smart ass.” Windy tittered. “Not for lack of trying though.” She reached forward and pushed Evershy slightly.
“Oh stop.” Evershy smiled back at her.
“Still, that isn’t uncommon.” Daydream continued. “Like 80% of the women here are married.” As they crossed into a more open area they saw quite a number of guests and staff having some intense fun. “That’s kind of the point.” He watched the lovemaking. “Married or not, some women just want to get away and have a wild time with no strings attached. What happens on the ocean and all that, right?”
“If you say so.” Evershy didn’t really agree with the concept.
They passed by a bar cart and Daydream snatched up a shot of vodka while Windy took a shot of whiskey. “I’ve been here for a little over a year now.” Daydream carried on. “I was part of a mass hiring. The only two original crew members left are the Captain and Solstice. The Captain is also the owner of this ship; this whole operation is a private enterprise of his design.”
“Must be a fun guy.” Windy noted.
“Honestly, I couldn’t say.” Daydream admitted.
“Why not?” Evershy asked.
“No one…” Aron chimed in.
“Sees the Captain.” Nora ended the tidbit of info.
“Only Solstice.” Aron added.
“Solstice only.” Nora repeated.
They traveled up to the highest deck, a DJ was playing music and many were dancing on the large floor. In the floor’s center though, a massive stallion that was two heads taller and a set of shoulders wider than any other aboard was getting a deal of attention. A lithe dragon and a heavy set mare were on their knees, practically worshipping his impressive stallionhood. He effortlessly held a pegasi by the hips; holding her up to his mouth as he pleasured her with his broad tongue, her legs draped over his powerful shoulders and holding his large ears like handles.
“Who is that ?” Windy asked as her eyes drank in his muscular body.
“Oh, that’s Big Ben.” Daydream said with a sigh.
“Fitting name.” Windy smiled.
“It isn’t his real name.” He continued. “Nobody knows his real name, we just started calling him that and it stuck.”
“Ben is popular.” Aron noted.
“Very popular.” Nora emphasized.
The new group spent the afternoon together. Daydream told them more about the ship and detailed places that were less sexually active. They had lunch at the bistro and he continued his heavy flirting with Evershy who worked diligently to play it off. Windy began to take to the unique twins, delighting in their vocal quirk and sincerely sweet nature. Beginning to feel overwhelmed by the public displays, Evershy soon decided she needed a break from life on deck and they headed for their cabin.
“Well, thank you for taking the time for us.” Evershy said as they neared the stairs to the lower decks.
“Anytime.” Daydream lightly took her hand and gave it a squeeze. “Will I see you tomorrow?”
“Maybe.” She lightly shrugged. “We’ll definitely be around.”
“Have a good…” Aron tipped his head to Windy.
“Night, Mrs. Whistles.” Nora copied the stance.
“Thanks for the company.” She laid a hand to each of their heads and ruffled their feathers. “You little weirdoes.”
As the boys left them they headed downstairs. Evershy let out a huge sigh as they walked down the hall towards their cabin. The passage was filled with languid moaning and they came upon a tall, dragoness who had a pair of stallions on their knees, greedily lapping at both her holes. She smiled at them as they walked by, giving Windy a wink. Windy pointed her finger back at her with a smirk of her own. When they got into the room, Evershy immediately excused herself to the bathroom and slammed the door.
“Oh my, I don’t know if I can take five more days of this.” She sat on the sink and took several deep breaths. She pulled up her dress up and slid her hand underneath the skirt, feeling her panties and finding them soaked. “Ugh, what’s wrong with me? I can’t believe I got so worked up.” She pressed her fingers against the moist spot and rubbed herself. “This is… so wrong.” Her mind and body wrestled as her fingers worked to gratify her need. “But.” She let out a low moan and her mind flashed an image of Daydream. Biting her lip, she pulled her hand up and slid it under the cotton. Evershy gasped and quickly clapped her other hand over her mouth, whining into it as she worked her fingers inside. She recalled the feeling of Daydream pressing himself against her from behind, wondering what it would have felt like if only their clothes weren’t in the way. “No.” She pulled her fingers out and pushed her dress down. “What am I doing?” Turning the sink on, she pooled some cold water in her hands and rubbed in on her face. Taking a moment to collect herself she turned off the light and went back into the bedroom. She recoiled in shock as she saw Windy writhing on her bed, her shorts undone and her hand thrust down them. “Windy!?”
“S… sorry, Shy.” She panted, rolling her breast in her opposite hand. “I guess… all the action out there got me more excited… than I thought.” She moaned as she hit a particularly sensitive spot.
“What in the world has gotten into you?” Evershy asked as she looked away.
“Mm, your fingers I hope.” She smiled. “Your tongue if I’m lucky.”
“Windy!”
“Don’t be like that, Shy.” Windy rolled her lust fogged eyes up at her. “I heard you in there.”
“I... I was…” Evershy’s cheeks reddened.
“You were thinking about that little hotty, Daydream.” Windy said knowingly. “Or at least part of him.” She slid off the bed and went to Evershy, gently taking her wrists and bending down to look into her eyes. “Believe it or not… I was kind of hoping something like this might happen.”
“What?” Evershy raised her head in surprise.
Windy smiled and ran her fingertips up Evershy’s arms. “You know, I still think about that night we had together way back when.”
Evershy’s mouth dropped open at the mention of it. “That was… a long time ago, Windy.”
“Going on twenty years now.” Windy clarified. “Just a couple of college girls having some fun, but it was more to me than that, Shy. I’ve been thinking about that night ever since… thinking about you .” They backed up against the wall and Windy pressed her body against hers.
“Windy, stop it.” Evershy said sternly.
“Are you really telling me there isn’t a part of you that wants this?” Windy asked with a hint of frustration.
“I don’t… I mean…” Evershy struggled.
Windy brought her head closer. “You want to know something, I’ve always fantasized about stealing you away someday.” She moved in and kissed her cheek. “So Bow and I could share you.”
“Please, Windy.” Evershy pushed her back. “Enough.”
“Come on.” Windy huffed. “You’re horny, I’m horny… let’s fuck.” She moved in again.
“I said stop!” Evershy reeled back and slapped her as hard as she could.
Windy stumbled away and looked at Evershy with stricken eyes as she held her sore cheek. “Shy… I…” She stuttered. “I’m sorry.” Evershy rushed past her and out into the hall, heading back up to the main deck. She went to the railing and looked out over the sea while catching her breath. Glancing down at her hand, she found it was still bright red from how hard she hit Windy. After a long five or six minutes she went back down and returned to the room. Stepping in, she heard the shower running behind the closed bathroom door. Evershy went to the door and held her ear to it, her heart dropping at the sound of Windy sobbing.
“Windy.” She called softly. “Can I come in?”
“Sure.” Windy’s voice answered weakly after a long pause.
Evershy opened the door and entered the steamy room. She could see Windy’s blurry form behind the misty glass and the top of her sporty cut peeking over the sliding door. “Are you… okay?” She asked as she rested against the vanity counter.
“I just told my best friend I wanted to tag team her with my husband. What do you think?” She asked in return.
“Yeah, that was certainly news.” Evershy acknowledged.
“I’m so sorry, Shy.” Windy spoke, her voice cracking through her crying. “I wanted to say all that stuff to you but… not like that . I don’t know what happened… I….” She started crying too much to speak anymore. Evershy couldn’t stand hearing her in this state. She shed her glasses and clothes, pulling the door open and stepping in with her. “Shy?” Windy stopped weeping out of shock at seeing her.
“It’s okay.” Evershy hugged her. “I’m not mad at you.” She laid her cheek to hers. “I’m sorry I hit you.”
“Shy.” Windy threw her arms around her. They stood in the cascading water for several minutes not saying a word, Evershy just holding her close until Windy stayed her tears. “I’m sorry.” She finally spoke up. “I’ve spent so long trying to keep my feelings for you buried and I’ve always been able to. But tonight… I don’t know; maybe it was the drinks or all the sex or both or whatever… I just couldn’t keep it inside anymore.” She sighed, trying to keep herself from tearing up. “I wanted you. I needed you so bad I felt like I was going to explode.”
“I’m the one who’s sorry.” Evershy held her tighter.
“For what?” Windy asked.
“For making you feel like you couldn’t talk to me about all this.” Evershy pulled back and looked into her eyes. “Have you really been holding this in for all these years?”
“I had to, Shy.” Windy held her cheek. “I know you’re not like me. After college you met Cirrus Breeze and settled down and… as badly as I wanted to pour my heart out to you I just couldn’t bring myself to lay all of that on you.” She tried to smile. “I met Bow and had Rainbow Dash but… deep down a part of me was in love with you and I couldn’t shake it no matter how hard I tried.”
Evershy put her hand over Windy’s and pushed her cheek into her palm. “Let’s talk about this in the bedroom.” Windy agreed and they dried off, wrapping themselves in towels and sitting beside each other on the bed. “You’re not the only one who thinks about that night, just so you know.” Evershy laid her hand on Windy’s leg.
“Really?”
“Of course.” She sighed. “I’m not blind, Windy; I know how predictable and safe my life has become. That night we shared was so wild and freeing.” She laughed. “You always bring out the worst in me in the best possible way.”
“I am a bad influence.” Windy managed to laugh. “So, do you have any feelings for me at all?”
“I can’t just say yes or no to that, Windy.” She frowned a bit. “I always feel like I'm in a mental tug-o-war with myself when it comes to stuff like this. I’m not as… open as you are about things like sexuality. I was raised not to be.” She shook her head. “The only thing I know right now is that I feel frustrated. All those creatures out there just having sex with whoever they want and wherever they want, not caring who sees… that should be disgusting to me but… I’m jealous .” She lowered her head in a sort of shame. “And I feel terrible for feeling that way, all I can think about is what Cirrus would say if he knew what was going on in my head.” She looked back up at Windy. “And you; hearing you confess all of that just now, even though it may not have been the ideal way you wanted to.” She laid her hand on top of Windy’s. “I don’t ever want you to feel like you have to keep part of yourself locked away from me. But you did, because I’m always so locked away from myself.”
“Then let’s cut all the crap.” Windy reached up and took her cheek. “Let’s unlock everything and just be honest with ourselves about ourselves. There’s nobody else here; just you and me, hundreds of miles away from anything else that influences our lives.” Her enthusiastic smile returned. “Shy, I love you and I’m so mad at myself for being too scared for twenty years to say it to you. Still, I feel so much lighter having finally gotten it all out and off my chest.” She ran her thumb just under her glasses. “I know I’m married and so are you, but I want this.” She lightly gestured between the two of them. “I want this more than you could ever know. So just be straight with me, Shy. If you honestly don’t want to be with me like that then just say so and I promise you won’t hear about it again.”
Evershy forced her mind to abandon the dozens of questions and concerns that usually impeded her deeper feelings and emotions. She reached up to her cleavage and grabbed the towel, tugging it until it came undone and fell from her body. “I don’t know what happens after this but… I’ll worry about it later.” She smiled. “I just want to be with you right now.”
“Shy.” Their heads slowly got closer until their lips finally met. Windy yanked off her own towel and they put their arms around each other, their hands wandering the other’s body freely. Their kiss, fueled by so much repressed desire, sent their hearts racing. “Oh, Shy.” She whispered as she pulled away to take a breath. “Your lips are just as soft as I remember.”
“They are?”
“Believe me, I never forgot what it felt like to kiss you.” She smiled and sat back. “Did you enjoy that?”
Evershy blushed and nodded. “Yes.”
“Do you want to keep going?”
“Yes.” She smiled warmly. “Just, go slow… okay?”
“Anything for you, Shy.” Windy reached out and laid her hand to the base of Evershy’s neck, running it down and over her hanging breast. “God I love your body, Shy.”
“You still think I look good? Even after all this time?”
“You’re damn right I do.” Windy grinned as she firmly grasped Evershy’s breast and ran her finger over her larger areola. “Just looking at you makes me wet.”
“Windy.” She shied from the graphic idea.
“What?” Windy snickered. “No more holding back, right?”
“Right.” Evershy reached out in return and ran her hand across Windy’s thigh and up her stomach, her fingers dancing in the ridges of her abs. "I’m jealous though, you look exactly the same as you did back then. Actually, you might be in even better shape now.” She looked down at her own body. “And there is just… more of me.”
“Hey.” Windy pushed her back onto the bed and climbed on top of her. “That may be true but trust me…” Her hand swam over Evershy’s left breast and down to her plump rear. “You’ve got it in all the right places.” Falling forward onto her chest, they fell into another kiss. Windy pried Evershy’s legs open with her own and massaged her pussy with her thigh. Evershy held onto the base of Windy’s wings as she moaned at the sudden stimulation. “I missed those cute noises you make.” Windy giggled as she moved in, kissing Evershy’s neck. “You still okay?”
“Yes.” She answered in a fevered whisper.
“So, were you really thinking about Daydream in the bathroom?” Windy asked.
“I… I don’t…”
“It’s okay if you were you know.” Windy pushed herself up a bit and looked down into her eyes. “You don’t have to feel ashamed.”
“I know.” Evershy conceded.
“Then just be honest about it.” Windy smiled and flexed her leg, working her muscle into Evershy’s labia. “Just say you want to fuck him.”
“Windy.” Evershy panted. “I… I want…”
“Come on, you can do it.” She teased.
“I want to… fuck… him.” She finally managed.
“What was that?” Windy lowered her ear to her lips.
“I want to fuck him, Windy.”
“Holy hell!” Windy gasped as she sat back up. “Did you hear that!?”
“What!?” Evershy looked around in a panic.
“Absolutely nothing.” Windy laughed. “You said it out loud and look, the world didn’t end.”
Evershy lowered her head back to the bed with an exasperated sigh. “Ok, I get the point.”
Windy chuckled and laid down at her side, she hooked her leg over Evershy’s and braced her head in her hand while she leaned on her elbow. “Do you?”
“I do.” Evershy rolled her torso over and draped her arm over Windy’s waist.
“Doesn’t it feel better to just say it?” Windy asked.
“Yeah.” She admitted.
“So, you want to invite him over?” Windy winked. “I don’t mind.”
“No!” Evershy laughed and slapped her hip. “What would Cirrus think?” Besides, being like this with you right now is already a lot to process.”
“Hey, I don’t think you give Cirrus enough credit.” Windy rubbed their hooves together. “Trust me, every guy has their freaky side. He might be into it.”
“Not every couple is as freaky as you and Bow seem to be.” Evershy caressed Windy’s perky chest. “Speaking of which, does he know about your little fantasy?”
“Yeah, I told him.”
“You did?” Evershy asked in surprise. “W…what did he say?”
“He got rock hard and we fucked like teenagers.” Windy ran her finger over Evershy’s lips with a grin. “Best part was.” She moved closer and kissed her. “We were both thinking about you the whole time.”
“You two are terrible.” Evershy smiled. “That’s so…”
“Hot.” Windy cut her off. “I know.” She laughed and looked at Evershy with a relaxed smile. “I love being able to just lay here with you and talk like this now.”
“Me too.” Evershy took Windy’s hand and kissed it, laying her palm over her heart. “I could get used to this.”
“We’ve still got five more days till the real world comes back.” Windy wriggled closer and pushed their bodies together. “How about we just cut loose from here on out and we can hash out the details when we get home.”
“That… sounds fun.” Evershy accepted another long kiss from her.
“Shy, since you still want to go slow with this.” Windy began as their kiss broke. “There’s something I’d really like.”
“What?” Evershy asked.
“I want to watch you touch yourself.” Windy reached down her body and ran her fingers over her clit.
“Oh.” Evershy looked down at herself nervously. “O… okay.” Her hand slowly lowered to her loins; she held her hooves together and parted her knees like a butterfly’s wings. “Like this?” Her fingers began treading over her lips.
“Yeah.” Windy confirmed through a husky breath. She watched her intently as Evershy slowly worked herself up. Clearly a bit embarrassed at first, as her body began to get what it was screaming for her inhibitions melted away and soon she was roughly burying her fingers in herself. Windy matched her pace, completely enthralled by the look of lust on her sweet, bespectacled face. Keeping one hand on herself, she moved her other to Evershy’s bouncing breast; holding it still as she craned her neck down to suck on it. A throaty gasp broke free from her at the additional attention, her head whipping back and forth on the bed.
“Oh, Windy.” Evershy panted. “I’m… I’m close.”
Upon hearing that, Windy immediately straddled her again. She braced her left hand on the bed, holding her whole body up as she hovered her crotch above Evershy’s. She worked herself relentlessly as she looked down at her impassioned friend. “Shy, cum for me. I want to see your face when you do it.” Evershy fell into a cacophony of cries and grunts as she brought herself off. Windy could hear her squirting onto the bed and completely lost it as she joined her in climaxing. “Shy!” Windy barely held herself up as she came, her own juices flowing down onto Evershy’s stomach as she stared down at her. Windy pushed herself off and crashed down onto the bed again, chest rising and falling rapidly. Evershy lay a panting mess, the sheets below her drenched from her much needed orgasm. “Holy shit… I needed that.” Windy rolled onto her back with a spent laugh.
“Me… too.” Evershy admitted as they both laughed up at the ceiling. She felt Windy’s hand come down onto hers and flipped her palm up, interlacing their fingers.
“I love you.” Windy said again.
“I love you too, Windy.” Evershy rolled her head over to see Windy looking at her with slightly damp eyes. “I’m sorry it took me so long to say it.”
They rewrapped themselves in their towels and Windy ordered another bottle of wine to enjoy as their bodies came down from the high. She poured them both a glass and they sat on the couch, giggling as they looked into each other’s eyes and tapping their glasses together. Sharing a deep sip of the merlot, they settled in and rested their heads together.
“That was amazing, Shy.” Windy rubbed Evershy’s leg. “You are one sexy mommy.”
“Thanks.” Evershy smiled with great embarrassment.
“I was thinking though.” Windy twisted her lips in thought. “This all may have worked out but… I’m really sorry I came after you like that.”
“It’s okay.” Evershy promised. “You don’t have to keep apologizing.”
“It isn’t just that… something was… wrong .” Windy tried to find words to express what she was thinking. “I mean, those were definitely my feelings but I felt like they were overtaking me… I couldn’t control myself.”
“What are you trying to say?” Evershy sat up straight and gave her a concerned look.
“I don’t know.” Windy admitted. “I just feel like something’s wrong.”
“Well, I’ve definitely been feeling more… excited … since we’ve been here.” Evershy thought back over the last two days. “I’ve been having some pretty out of the ordinary thoughts but I’ve been able to keep it in check… nothing like what you’re describing.”
“We’ve been together the whole time.” Windy continued her thought. “I don’t know what could be different.”
As Evershy considered Windy's words her gaze wandered the room until it came to rest on one of the disposable, red cups. Her mind re-winded through events and she suddenly jumped up from the couch. “Breath of Fresh Air.” She muttered.
“What?” Windy asked.
“The drink.” She pointed to the cup. “Every creature on the ship has been sucking that stuff down, especially you … but not me. You’ve had almost a dozen of those over the past two days and I’ve only had like two and half.”
Windy began to catch up to her logic. “Are you saying that stuff is… drugged or something?” She rose and went to the dresser, picking up the cup and looking down at the small amount of liquid left.
“Maybe.” Evershy shrugged. “It’s the only thing that makes sense. Every creature is so calm in the morning but by the afternoon this place turns into a floating porn movie. Not to mention the crew is always handing it out right and left to any creature that will take it.”
“Hmm. You might be on to something, Shy.” Windy put the cup down and leaned against the dresser.
“But we can’t be sure.” Evershy sighed.
“We can’t… but I know who we can ask.” Windy smiled.
“Daydream.” Evershy caught on.
“Yeah, and the twins.” She nodded. “Daydream has obviously got it bad for you. You’ve got his balls as blue as the water out there.” She pushed herself from the dresser and put her hands on Evershy’s shoulders. “It should be easy for you to get him back in here so we can have a little chat.”
“You want me to… seduce him?” She asked unsurely.
“He’s already seduced, Shy.” Windy noted with a smirk. “Just spend some time with him, bat your eyes, shake that cute butt of yours and invite him down. While you’re dealing with him, I’ll track down the twins. We’ll get them back here and see what we can get out of them.”
“Okay.” Evershy nodded. “Sounds like a plan.”
“Great.” Windy retrieved the bottle of wine. “Now let’s get buzzed.” She walked over to her and wiggled the bottle. “Wanna do body shots?” Windy’s eyebrows hopped up and down suggestively.
Evershy held her glass out for a refill. “This is fine.” She laughed. After polishing off the bottle they lost their towels and nestled down with each other in the drier of the two beds.
Author's Note
This is my initial shot at a mature tale with a more involved plot and also my first anthro story. I'm hoping to make this a series utilizing more of the marvelous matrons of the MLP universe. With respect to Mr. & Mrs. Shy, I chose the name Evershy for her as I felt it was a sweet name that fell in line with her daughter's. I named Mr. Shy, Cirrus Breeze, with cirrus being a type of cloud that is also known as a 'mare's tail', so it works on various levels.
Windy and Shy: Cruise Controlled
Evershy roused at the feeling of Windy’s hand caressing her arm. When her eyes managed to open they beheld her smiling new lover.
“Morning.” Evershy greeted through a light yawn.
“Morning, Shy.” Windy gave her a peck on the lips. “Gotta say, it feels nice waking up next to you.” With a grin she hefted Evershy’s breast. “And these things are the best pillows I’ve ever laid on.”
“Thanks, I think.” Evershy giggled.
“So, ready to go guy hunting?” Windy asked with a nudge.
“As ready as I’m going to be.”
One set of morning routines later, the duo got ready to seek out Daydream and the griffon twins. Windy put on her incredibly form fitting yoga pants and an extra-long tee with her baseball cap. Evershy wore a short sleeve, summer blouse along with a knee length, side slit skirt. They headed out and split up to locate their targets; Evershy walked the main deck, her eyes wandering the landscape while Solstice’s voice came over the P.A. to make the daily announcements. Several cart servers passed her, offering her more of the suspicious beverage which she politely declined. She made a round of the starboard side and stern before ascending to the first upper deck.
“Mrs. Shy?” Daydream’s voice hailed.
Evershy turned to see him eagerly approaching. “Oh, Daydream.” She smiled. “How are you?”
“Great, now that you’re here.” He playfully laughed. “What are you up to?”
“Well, Windy is off on her own for now.” She began. “Since we had a nice time yesterday I thought we could spend some more together.”
“Absolutely.” His eyes lit up at the suggestion. “I’m all yours.”
“Alright.” Trying to follow Windy’s instruction, she rapidly blinked at him.
“Uh… something in your eye?” He asked.
“What?” She smiled innocently. “No, it’s just… bright today.”
“Oh.” He stepped closer to her. “Well how about we start off with breakfast?”
“Sure.” She nodded as he put his arm around her, leading her to the morning breakfast buffet.
Across the ship, on the third tier of the port side deck, Windy finally found her unique companions. She was surprised to see them sitting alone in a quieter part of the deck’s pool area.
“Hey boys.” She stood over them with a wide smile. They looked up, their usually dour faces cheering at the sight of her.
“Mrs. Whistles?” Aron smiled.
“You came looking for us?” Nora did the same.
“Well yeah, we had fun yesterday didn’t we?”
“We did.” Aron stood.
“A lot.” Nora stood at his side.
“No sense in stopping then.” Windy laid a hand to each of their heads. “Come on, cuties; let’s live it up.” She took one of them under each arm. “And stop calling me Mrs. Whistles. Just call me Windy.”
“Of course…” Aron nodded.
“Mrs. Windy.” Nora did likewise.
“Eh, close enough.” She laughed and pulled their heads into her breasts. They grabbed junk food snacks and hit up the casino, the two griffons measuredly cheering her on at the blackjack table; at least until she tapped out after winding up two hundred bucks in the hole, their talons patting her back as her head fell to the tableside. From there, she dragged them up onto the karaoke stage to sing; the dainty duo not surprisingly having choirboy like voices. As odd as they were, Windy couldn’t help but find them charming in their own way. They treated her like a princess, always polite and ever diligent in their efforts to show her a good time. As the sun reached its apex in the sky, Windy decided to take them in search of Evershy; whom she was certain had Daydream with her by now.
Evershy and Daydream had spent a deal of time just talking; as much as it was clear that he wanted her, he started opening up to her about his personal life and hobbies. As they slowly bonded in the shade of one of the umbrella tables that lined the stern of the second deck, she heard Windy call to her.
“There you guys are.” Windy strolled over with her feathered arm candy.
“Hey, Windy.” She smiled. “Looks like you three have been having fun.”
“Hell yeah.” Windy bent down and pulled them with her. “These two really start to grow on you after a while.” She grinned. “Check this out. Hey Aron, tell Evershy what we did today.”
“Well, we started off…” As Aron cut off as he always did, Windy clamped her hand over his beak.
“Getting popcorn, pretzels and sodas.” Nora continued unimpeded. “We went to the casino hall below deck where Mrs. Windy proceeded to lose her money. After that we…” Windy clamped her other hand on his beak and let Aron’s go.
“Sang with her at the karaoke lounge.” Aron continued on. “Then we shared a few drinks at the bar, which is why Mrs. Windy is in an especially good…” Windy clamped her hand on his beak again and let Nora’s go.
“Mood.” Nora concluded.
Windy snorted with a massive smile on her face. “Isn’t that nuts !”
“That’s… something.” Evershy nodded.
“We really wish…” Aron looked up at her with a hard eye.
“You wouldn’t do that.” Nora gave her a similar look.
“Hahahah!” Windy laughed and kissed the tops of their heads. “I love these two, they’re like freaky little salt and pepper shakers. I wonder if Bow will let me keep them.”
“They sure seem to have taken a liking to you .” Daydream noted. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen them that happy.”
“Mrs. Windy…” Aron smiled.
“Is the best.” Nora copied him.
“Damn right.” She giggled. “Hey, since we’re all here, how about we take this back to the cabin.”
“Yeah, good idea.” Evershy nodded.
“Really!?” Daydream nearly leapt from the table but quickly returned to playing it cool. “I mean, yeah. Let’s go.”
The five of them returned to the room, Evershy popped the door and went in with the boys behind her. Windy followed in last and leaned up against the door as she shut it, her arms folded. Evershy sat on the edge of the bed and gave Daydream a serious look.
“Daydream, I know coming here got your hopes up, but… we actually brought you here to talk.” She informed.
“Oh.” Daydream glanced back and saw Windy blocking the door. “We’ve been talking all day.” He laughed nervously. “Something wrong?”
“I want you to tell us what Breath of Fresh Air is.” She asked. Even though their questioning was based on a hunch, the look on his face was all the proof they needed to know that the hunch was correct.
“Breath of Fresh Air?” He repeated innocently. “It’s just a drink, kind of the ship’s signature.”
The twins began to grow anxious. “Maybe we should…” Aron started.
“Just go.” Nora finished.
“Oh no you don’t.” Windy grabbed them both by the back of the neck. “No creature is going anywhere until we get the truth.”
“What the hell?” Daydream asked defensively. “Were you just trying to get us down here to grill us?”
“We should have known...” Aron said bitterly.
“You were just pretending to like us.” Nora struggled.
“No one ever…” Aron looked up at Windy, his eye registering a sincere degree of hurt.
“Really likes us.” Nora’s eye belied the same pain.
Windy immediately let them go, their words yanking her heartstrings. “Hey, it isn’t like that.” She knelt down in front of them. “I do like you, a lot.” She promised. “That’s why we’re asking you about this. You three don't seem to be like every creature else around here, we feel like we can trust you to tell us the truth.”
“She’s right.” Evershy looked Daydream in the eye. “We know something weird is going on with this cruise, please just tell us what you know.”
Daydream sighed, silently cursing to himself. “Fine.” He conceded. “Breath of Fresh Air isn’t a normal drink. There’s something in it… something that jacks up your libido to crazy levels.”
Evershy quickly stood, giving him an angry glare. “So you’ve been trying to drug us so you could have sex with us?”
“What!?” Daydream backed up a step. “No!” He shook his head. “It isn’t a drug… it’s all natural.”
“Yeah, well your ‘natural ’ drink damn near drove me to rape my best friend.” Windy detailed.
“Natural or not, it’s still manipulation.” Evershy added. “It’s making creatures do things they wouldn’t normally do.”
“It… it doesn’t work that way.” Daydream defended.
“What do you mean?” She asked.
“It doesn’t…” Aron spoke up.
“Create desire.” Nora continued.
“It only amplifies the….” Aron carried on.
“Desire that is already there.” Nora ended.
“Well, that would explain what happened to me.” Windy said as she thought back to the overwhelming lust for Evershy that she felt the night before.
“Yeah.” Daydream nodded. “A lot of the women here are already repressed, Breath of Fresh Air just helps them… let it out. It’s safe and no creature gets hurt.”
“You can’t be sure of that.” Evershy toned. “Look, I know this cruise is designed for ‘off the record’ fun, but you have to know that this is wrong.”
“I… I know.” Daydream admitted. “That’s why I haven’t been offering it to you. I meant what I said Mrs. Shy, you really caught my eye and I wanted to make this happen without Breath of Fresh Air.”
“That true?” Windy looked over the twins.
“Yes, Mrs. Windy.” Aron nodded.
“We like you.” Nora did the same.
“Ladies always avoid us.” Aron said shallowly.
“They’re scared of us.” Nora said in similar tone.
“But not you, you…” Aron began with a smile.
“Accept us how we are.” Nora mirrored the expression.
“Aw geez.” Windy hugged them. “I can’t stay mad at you two. Shy is right though, this situation is messed up. We need to get some solid proof about this and report what’s going on here.”
“No!” Daydream cried. “You can’t do that.”
“Why not?” Evershy asked.
“Look, I get that you’re not down with how things work here.” He sighed. “But if you start asking questions or go snooping around, we’re all in deep shit if Solstice and the Captain find out.”
“Pssh.” Windy scoffed. “What’re they going to do, fire you?”
“If we’re lucky .” Daydream looked at her gravely. “Don’t forget, this is a private vessel and we’re in international waters. They’re the law out here and they can do whatever they want.”
“Oh…” Windy looked over at Evershy. “That’s certainly a lot more ominous when he puts it that way.”
“Please, Mrs. Shy.” Daydream went to her. “You can think I’m as big a piece of shit as you want, I deserve it. But I really do care about you and I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“I don’t think that, Daydream.” She smiled and put her hand on his chest. “But I’m also not going to ignore this.”
“Why don’t we just call this in to the coast guard or something?” Windy suggested.
“That won’t work, your…” Aron shook his head.
“Phone is dead here.” Nora did the same.
“They’re right.” Daydream nodded. “There’s a dish on the roof of the bridge, it’s connected to a device on the Captain’s control that jams cell signals. If we’re ever asked about the reception, we just say it’s because we’re out in the middle of the ocean.”
“What movie villain designed this ship?” Windy asked with a huff.
“Hmm.” Evershy sat back down. “Is there any creature else on this ship we can trust to talk about this with?”
“Well… maybe.” Daydream thought.
“Big…” Aron looked to his brother.
“Ben.” Nora looked back.
“That giant stallion?” Evershy asked.
“Yeah.” Daydream affirmed. “He’s never agreed with Breath of Fresh Air and he doesn't offer it to any creature who comes to him. He doesn’t need it anyway; all he has to do is whip it out and most of the ladies on board can’t wait to get on their knees.”
“Anyone else?” Windy asked.
“Ben is the only one we can trust 100%.” Daydream answered. “Most of the crew just go along with this because it gets them laid easier, so they won’t go against the Captain and screw up a good thing. Some of them are really loyal to Solstice though, they’re his eyes and ears and if they catch wind then… well, you know.”
“Alright then.” Evershy rose from the bed. “Let’s go find him and bring him back here.”
“Okay.” Daydream nodded and looked to the twins. “Stay here with Mrs. Whistles till we get back.”
“We won’t…” Aron began.
“Go anywhere.” Nora ended.
As Evershy and Daydream left, Windy went to the couch and patted the cushions on either side of her. “Come sit with me, sweeties.” The twins sat at her sides. “I’m sorry I made you think I tricked you, we good?”
“Of course…” Aron laid his head to her right shoulder.
“Mrs. Windy.” Nora laid his head to her left.
"Glad to hear it." She turned on the television and put her arms around them, running her fingers through the soft feathers on their chests. They both rolled onto their sides, each laying a talon across her waist. As they cuddled and watched the news, the brothers matched their single eyes; the two communicating a great deal without uttering a word.
“Mrs. Windy, can…” Aron gazed up at her.
“We kiss you?” Nora finished the question.
Windy smiled at the innocent request. “I’d really like that.” She tilted her head left and gave Nora a tender kiss, moving her head over and giving Aron the same. Their claws delicately ran up and down her legs as she languidly went back and forth between the two. “Hold on.” She drew her arms back around and pulled her shirt off, tossing it on the table and then removing her bra. “That’s better.” She added the undergarment to the pile and laid back against the couch. The two griffons immediately set themselves on one of her breasts, their beaks pinching her nipples as they licked and sucked. “Mm, two heads are better than one.” She ran her tongue across her palms and slid a hand down each of their shorts, taking a firm hold of their erections. They mewled into her breasts at the feeling of her hands, their slender tails twitching in delight as they humped up into her fists. Aron and Nora slowly lowered their talons to the dampening region of her yoga pants. “Watch the claws, boys.” Windy eyed the sharp nails.
“We would never…” Aron said as he raised his head.
“Hurt you, Mrs. Windy.” Nora finished as they pressed their digits against her.
“Ah yeah.” Windy allowed her head to fall back, enjoying the full body attention she was receiving. After a few minutes, a needy groan left her as she was ready for more. “Okay, clothes need to go now.” She stood and peeled the pants and underwear from her body. “Lose the shorts and get on the bed.” She commanded.
“Whatever we can do...” Aron got up and did as he was told.
“To please you.” Nora followed suit. They hurried into the other room, Windy palming their rears as they climbed up onto the bed.
“Please use us…” Aron laid down onto his back.
“However you want.” Nora laid beside him.
Windy was getting extremely turned on by their submissive nature. Laying on the bed with her legs hanging off the end; she took Aron into her mouth and stroked Nora. After a few bobs of her head, she pulled her mouth from Aron, working him in her opposite hand as she brought her head down onto Nora’s waiting cock. The brothers squirmed under her vigorous attentions, their delicate moans and pants serving to spur her on even more. Windy’s nether region was dripping and crying out for satisfaction; she quickly got up onto the bed and straddled Aron, lowering herself onto him. While far from the largest she’d had, his barbed shaft nevertheless rubbed her in all the right places as she took all of him inside. “Oh, Aron… fuck, you feel good.” She looked over at Nora with a hungry smile. “There’s plenty of room for one more, hon.” Nora got behind her and joined his brother in her warmth. A guttural growl rose from deep within Windy at the feeling of both of them inside her; she braced herself on her palms and held her hips high enough for both of them to move freely. “Fuck me, boys.” The twins thrusted in perfect sync, their feline cocks stimulating almost the entirety of her interior at once. Nora lightly dug his left talon into her hip and Aron did the same for her breasts. Aron in turn went to work on her nipples while Nora coated one of his claws in saliva and lightly pushed it into her ass.
“Mrs. Windy, you…” Aron whispered as he moved his beak from one breast to the other.
“Feel like heaven.” Nora said as he worked his claw in time with his hips.
“You two are incredible .” Windy gripped the sheets, the twins eagerly pleasuring all of her at once. “Grab my wing, Nora.”
“Of course, Mrs. Windy.” He removed his talon from her hip and gripped the base of her left wing, using it as leverage.
“Ah! That’s it.” She grunted. “Aron, bite them harder.”
“Of course, Mrs. Windy.” He obeyed and used his beak to clamp her nipples.
“Oh fuck!” Windy rammed her hips back into them in time with their thrusts. “Push your claw in deeper!”
“Yes, Mrs. Windy.” Nora compliantly dug his talon deep into her ass.
“Holy shit!” She grit her teeth. “Are you close, boys?”
“We won’t cum until…” Aron moaned.
“You tell us to, Mrs. Windy.” Nora groaned.
Windy was quickly overcome by the abundance of stimuli wracking her at once. “Cum! Cum inside me!” She shouted as she felt herself reach her peak.
“At once, Mrs. Windy!” They cried in unison. Seemingly having full control of their bodies, they immediately began spurting into Windy upon her request and she came hard as their hot seed coated her insides. They held themselves inside of her as she rode out her orgasm, holding onto her as she violently bucked her hips against them. Windy fell forward onto Aron with a long sigh, smothering him in her cleavage; they pulled out and she rolled off of him and onto her back. Her eyes slowly opened and she jumped a bit as she saw them both staring down at her with an unblinking eye.
“Are you pleased with…” Aron began.
“Our service, Mrs. Windy?” Nora ended.
“That’s an understatement.” She reached up and pulled them down on top of her. “I may really end up taking you home with me.” She laughed as she ruffled the feathers of their wings.
“We would love to…” Aron laid his head on her left breast.
“Be yours , Mrs. Windy.” Nora laid his head on her right.
“You two are just too cute.” She kissed their heads.
“Shall we…” Aron started.
“Continue?” Nora finished.
“I’d love to, but we’d better get dressed before Shy and the others get back.” The twins slipped back into their shorts while Windy threw her clothes back on. Nearly ten minutes later they heard the door opening, Evershy and Daydream came in followed by the enormous stallion who needed to duck to get under the doorframe. “Wow!” Windy looked up at him. “I thought he was big from a distance.”
“Mrs. Whistles.” He greeted in a heavy baritone. “A pleasure to meet you.”
“Same here, B.B.” Windy held her hand out only to watch it disappear into his.
“We gave him the gist of what’s going on.” Daydream informed.
“He said he’d hear us out.” Evershy sat on the bed. “Please, have a seat Ben.” She offered the spot beside her.
“Thanks.” He stepped over to the bed and sat down, the mattress sank and Evershy spilled over onto his lap. “Sorry.” He laughed.
“That’s okay.” Evershy found herself in the shadow of the massive bulge in his shorts and quickly pushed herself upright, working her way to the elevated corner of the bed.
“So.” Windy sat with the twins on the opposite bed. “Do you know anything we haven’t already heard about this Breath of Fresh Air junk?”
Ben rubbed his chin. “I know that even though it was apparently the Captain’s idea, the chemical in the drink is Solstice’s work.”
“It is?” Daydream asked. “How do you know that?”
“He told me.” Ben put his hands on his knees. “I’ve had a few conversations with him, he told me a little about his past.”
“Solstice never…” Aron looked up at him.
“Opens up to any creature.” Nora gave him a similar gaze.
“Well, he did to me.” Ben shrugged.
“He probably wants you on his side more than any creature else.” Windy noted. “I know I would.”
“What do you know about him?” Evershy asked.
“Said he’s known the Captain for nearly seven years now, helped him design this ship and handled the business side of things when it came to the cruise.” Ben relayed. “Highly educated, said he had a masters in chemical engineering.” He continued. “Never really got into his personal life… got real touchy when I brought it up.” He pointed to the floor. “His lab is somewhere in the bowels of the ship, if he’s making the stuff on board then it’s down there.”
“Then that’s where we have to go.” Evershy said boldly.
“You’re all serious about going against him, aren’t you?” Ben asked.
“We are.” Evershy confirmed.
“Even you?” He looked to Daydream.
“If Mrs. Shy is doing this… then I’m going to keep her safe.” He looked over to see Evershy smiling warmly at him.
“The same…” Aron proudly began.
“Goes for us.” Nora said surely.
“We’re going to…” Aron smiled up at Windy.
“Protect Mrs. Windy.” Nora, as always, did the same. Windy hugged them both tightly.
“Alright then.” Ben stood, Evershy collapsing as the bed bounced back up. “I’ll help too.”
“You will?” Evershy asked as she sat up again. “Thank you, Ben.”
Ben nodded solemnly. “I’ve never cared for him using that stuff. I may sleep around with other creatures' wives, but only because they want to… not because they’re driven too by some kind of science goop.” He laughed. “I know that isn’t much of a moral code, but every creature on this crew is here because they’ve got issues… I’m no different.” Daydream and the twins reflected on his words, knowing that he was right. “Anyway, if you plan on going down there, best to wait till late in the night. Most of the crew and guests are out cold from fucking all day.” He bluntly informed.
“Right.” Evershy looked at the clock. “It’s only twenty three past seven. We should get some rest, get back up around two or three?” She offered the plan to the room.
“Works for me.” Windy nodded.
“I’ll meet you back here at two then.” Ben said as he lumbered from the room.
“See you…” Aron waved.
“Soon, Mrs. Windy.” Nora waved as well.
“See you boys.” She slapped their butts as they headed for the door, giving them a wink on their way out. “Be right back, bathroom break.” She excused herself as she went into the bathroom, leaving Evershy and Daydream alone.
The young stallion sighed and smiled. “This trip isn’t going exactly how I planned.”
“Thank you for helping us, Daydream.” She went to him and took his hand. “And… thank you for caring so much about me.”
“Hey.” He shrugged. “I can’t have you thinking I’m just some horn dog.”
Evershy went back to the bed and sat. “I don’t understand.” She looked over him curiously. “You’re such a nice, fun and handsome young guy. Why are you on this ship? I can’t imagine you’d have much trouble finding a girlfriend.”
“That’s just it.” Daydream joined her on the bed. “I hate girls my own age, I always have.” He clasped his hands between his legs. “They’re always wishy washy, they never know what they want and they’re always playing some kind of stupid ass game. I like actual women… like you.” A small smile graced his face. “Problem is, they’re always married or engaged or already seeing somebody regularly. That’s why I’m here.” He admitted with degree of shame. “I can get all I can handle of exactly my type, and Breath of Fresh Air made it that much easier; it’s like having a free pass to an all you can eat buffet that only serves your favorite food. Which… sounds pretty scummy now that I say it out loud.” He let out a lackluster laugh. “Big Ben is right… we’re all fucked up.”
“You’re being too hard on yourself.” Evershy put her hand on his shoulder. “It’s so easy to fall into something like this and I can understand why you’re frustrated. But don’t give me too much credit.” She laughed. “I’ve learned a lot about myself the last few days and it’s safe to say that even I still don’t have everything quite figured out in life.”
Daydream chuckled. “I’m glad I got to meet you, Mrs. Shy.” He looked into her eyes with a genuine adoration.
“Me too.” She smiled.
“Well… I should go before I do something stupid to ruin the moment.” He pushed himself up from the bed. “I’ll be back with the others tonight, see you then.”
“Right.” Evershy nodded as he left.
“He’s a good guy at heart.” Windy noted as she came back into the room.
“He is.” She agreed. “They all are.”
“Yeah.” Windy plopped down beside her. “B.B. is a lot more soulful than I would have thought though.” She grinned. “Did you see how big he was? Looked like he had a sleeping bag stuffed down his shorts.”
“Windy.” Evershy slapped her arm.
“What?” Windy asked innocently. “I’m just saying.” She stood up and pulled her shirt back off.
“I suppose we’d better get what sleep we can, going to be a long night.” Evershy began to undress, she shed her blouse and pulled her skirt off. As she folded them and put them on the dresser, Windy came up behind her and started undoing her bra.
“Allow me.” She whispered into her ear.
“Thank you.” She giggled as she felt the clasp come undone and slipped out of the brazier. A sharp yelp flew from her mouth as Windy’s hands came around and groped her heavy breasts. She felt her lips on the back of her neck and her chest pressing into her back. “That feels good… but is this really the time?” She asked, despite enjoying her touch.
“Sorry, I’m still worked up after taking it from Aron and Nora.” Windy ran her nails down Evershy’s stomach and around her hips.
“You slept with them?” Evershy glanced back at her.
“It was great.” Windy informed, kissing the spot between Evershy’s wings. “It didn’t even feel like two guys, it was like being with one guy who has two heads, two dicks and four arms.” She laughed. “Now turn around.” Windy backed up as Evershy spun to face her; she immediately brought their bodies together again and kissed her. Their hands flowed over each other as their tongues waltzed; Windy pulled away and slowly sank to her knees, pulling Evershy’s panties down along the way.
“Windy.” Evershy panted as she watched her. “We should really sleep.”
“We will.” Windy promised as she lifted Evershy’s right leg and hooked it over her shoulder. “I just want to eat first.” She opened her mouth and wrapped it around her pussy.
“Ah!” Evershy gripped the edge of the dresser, her legs curling as Windy’s tongue went spelunking.
Windy worked her upper lip on Evershy’s clit, her sexy moans and heavy breathing making her leak onto the carpet. She spread her knees and jammed her middle and ring fingers up into herself, massaging her own clit with her palm. “Shy… you taste so good.” Windy licked her soaked chin as she paused for a breath.
“Keep going.” Evershy pleaded as she grabbed Windy’s head, pulling her face back into her crotch.
Windy gladly obliged, swirling her nimble tongue deep within her. Evershy's sounds of passion were music to ears; her head being dragged to and fro as Evershy swiveled her hips, inching closer to the edge. “Come on, Shy.” Windy said as she extracted her tongue. “Give me what you gave the sheets last night.” Evershy reached down with three fingers and rubbed herself wildly; Windy smiled and leaned back, pushing her chest up as a nice big target. “That’s right.” She panted. “Give it to me, babe.”
“Windy!” Evershy pulled her lips apart, a forceful jet spraying out all over Windy’s breasts.
“Oh, fuck yes!” Windy screamed as the warm fluids ran down her belly and onto her mound. “More!” Evershy arched her back as she punished her clit, sending several more squirts onto Windy’s body as she came. “Oh my god!” Windy ran her free hand through the cascade and crammed her fingers into her mouth, nearly gagging herself as she sucked down Evershy’s essence. Her eyes rolled back and she bit down on her fingers as her orgasm finally hit, wings spreading out to their fullest as heavy waves of pleasure rushed through her quaking frame. She fell backwards onto the carpet, soaking wet and with a lopsided smiled plastered on her face. “Ohh…I can die happy now.”
Evershy started to laugh as her senses returned. “You’re too much.”
“And you love it.” Windy gave her a thumb up.
“God help me, I do.” She reached down and took her hand, pulling her up and into a loving kiss.
Windy and Shy: Cruise Controlled
The alarm on Evershy’s phone went off at one thirty in the morning. She reached over and flipped the screen to silence it, rolling over and rubbing Windy’s arm.
“Windy, time to get up.” She whispered.
“I know.” Windy grumbled, having heard the offensive beeping.
They roused and got dressed, making some coffee for themselves as they waited for the boys to show. Two o’clock on the dot came with a light knock at their door, Evershy answered and their four new friends joined them in the cabin.
“Hey, Mrs. Shy.” Daydream greeted. “Ready for the world’s worst date?”
“Absolutely.” She laughed.
“So how do we get down to the lab?” Windy asked as she finished her coffee with a large swig.
“Best place to get into the lower levels is through the fitness center.” Ben explained. “The maintenance crew need a quick access to the main steam valves for the sauna in case of emergencies or repair, from there we can get to the lowest levels surrounding the engine room.”
“Okay.” Evershy nodded. “Let’s go.”
The six of them headed up to the main deck. Eerily silent at such an hour, the only noise was the rushing of the night winds and the flapping of the flags that adorned the upper railings. As Ben had said, there was virtually no activity to be found as they proceeded to the stern and down to the lower level areas. Fortunately, even the robust fitness complex was devoid of guests and Ben led them to the back to where the maintenance hatch rested. Ensuring the coast was clear of both eyes and surveillance cameras, they slipped down into the much hotter worker levels of the vessel. Moving slowly, they explored the metal halls until finding another hatch leading deeper in the bowels of the ship. Voices could be heard as they reached the next level, they huddled in two separate corners as the talking drew closer to their position. A pair of workers passed by, casually discussing some matter relating to the boiler room and slowly vanishing down the corridor.
“Which way…” Aron whispered.
“Do we go?” Nora said in equal fashion.
“Not sure.” Ben sighed.
“I thought you knew?” Daydream looked up at him sharply.
“I said I knew his lab was down here.” He clarified. “He never actually showed it to me.”
“Let’s split up.” Evershy suggested. “Aron, Nora; go with Windy down the east path. Daydream and Ben can come with me down the west.”
“Alright.” Windy nodded, looking to Evershy's escorts. “Take care of my Shy, you two.”
“We’ve got it covered.” Daydream promised.
They parted ways; creeping through the claustrophobic passages with the low roar of the ship’s engines reverberating in the steel walls. Windy and the twins worked their way through various rooms with equipment that was beyond their scope of knowledge. Upon hearing another approaching worker, they scrambled to pull open a heavy metal door and hide before he rounded the corner.
“Whew.” Windy laid her head against the door; a sudden chill ran through her and she turned around to see that the room was refrigerated. Large crates lined the walls and long metal tables rested in the room’s center. “What the hell is all this?” She asked.
The twins went to one of the stacks of crates and looked for any form of identification. “This one…” Aron ran his claw over a shipping label.
“Says, papaver somniferum.” Nora read along with him.
“Huh?” Windy walked over to one of the tables, finding a shipping log on its surface. She opened the log and began flipping through pages. “Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, salvia divinorum, tetrahydrocannabinol, areca catechu… what in the world is this stuff?”
“We should…” Aron began.
“Photograph this.” Nora concluded.
“Right.” Windy pulled out her phone and began taking pictures of the crates and the log book. They heard another, louder voice and the sound of the door beginning to open. “Shit, hide.” Windy harshly whispered as she dove behind the crates in the far right corner of the room. The twins flew up to the top of the stacks and receded into the shadows.
“Damn it!” A crew member, clearly an officer from his garb, stormed in with a pair of workers behind him. He snatched up the log book and pointed it at them. “I told you not to leave this lying around.” He scolded. “Solstice leaves this in my care, if anything happened to it he’d toss me in the ocean. If that happens I swear I’ll drag you two to the bottom with me.”
“Sorry sir.” One of the workers meekly apologized.
“Just get to the surveillance office and relieve Holiday.” He ordered with a frustrated sigh.
“Sir.” They saluted and the three of them left the room.
The twins jumped down and Windy crawled out of her hiding spot. “I'm trying really hard not to say I’m too old for this.” She dusted her knees.
“Did you hear…” Aron went to her.
“What he said?” Nora followed.
“Yeah, surveillance room.” Windy nodded. “Sounds like something we should check out.” She held her ear to the door and heard nothing of note. “Let’s keep moving.”
On the west side of the ship; Evershy, Daydream and Big Ben managed to find their goal. A unique room, lined with high windows and additional ventilation. Evershy tried the door but found it locked.
“Oh no.” She silently cursed.
“Let me, Mrs. Shy.” Ben went to the door and placed his hand above the handle. She watched his powerful arm flex as he pressed against the steel door, with a heavy grunt he leaned in and it popped open; Ben having forced the latch to decouple from the doorframe.
“Holy shit.” Daydream gasped.
“Great job, Ben.” Evershy laid her hand to his arm with an excited smile. He merely nodded and allowed them in as he closed the door behind them. “Oh my.” Evershy looked about at the chemist’s paradise. Dozens of vials with a variety of extracts and fluids within them sat across the many tables. A pair of industrial chemical mixing machines sat against the far wall and trays of colored, paintball sized pellets sat on the table adjacent to them.
“Whoa.” Daydream picked up one of the pellets and squeezed it. “This is weird.”
“That’s one word for it.” Ben said as he went to the chemical mixers. “This is a lot of equipment just to make one additive.” He noted.
“Yeah, I mean look at all of these.” Daydream scanned the various mixtures.
“I’ll take pictures of all of this, we can think about it later.” Evershy got her phone out and began snapping shots of everything she could.
Daydream pulled out a sealing sandwich bag he had brought and took up one of the vials. “We should take a sample, just in case.” He poured a portion of the contents in the bag and tightly sealed it.
“Good idea.” Evershy praised.
“Got to learn something from watching ten different forensics shows.” He smirked.
“Okay, I’ve got enough.” Evershy opened her messenger. “I’ll contact Windy and let her know to head back.” She sent out her message, receiving an answer a few moments later. “Okay, let’s get out of here.”
“Don’t have to tell me twice.” Daydream peeked out the door to make sure the way was clear. “We’re good.”
They retraced their steps and returned to the point where they split. Windy and the twins showed up a few minutes later and they hurried back to the safety of the main deck. Their tension left them as they returned to the open air but they kept up their rapid step all the way back to the cabin. The home stretch of the familiar hallway was a welcome sight, but as they neared the door the sound of heavy hoof steps sounded from the far end. The sound was accompanied by the distinct shuffle of a coat that Daydream knew well.
“Get in the room, now .” He whispered to the mares. All but pushing them inside, the boys stood idle as Solstice slowly made his way down the hall.
“Well.” He smiled. “You four are up and about rather late.” He stopped before them.
“Oh, hey Solstice.” Daydream played it as cool as he possibly could. “Don’t see you down here all too often.”
“Just making rounds.” He chuckled. “I’m not above tending to these types of matters. So, why the late night gathering?”
“Nothing special.” Ben answered. “Quiet hours like this are the only time we get to just hang out.”
“Is that so?” He looked to the twins who gazed back at him nervously. Daydream saw this and raised his hands in concession.
“Alright, you got us.” He sighed, the others glancing at him in surprise.
“Oh?” Solstice raised his brow.
“Truth is, there’s a couple of guests that we’re pretty sweet on.” He smiled innocently. “I know we’re not supposed to play favorites and keep ourselves available to all the guests but… well, we’re into them so we’ve been sticking with them exclusively.”
“I see.” Solstice hummed as he looked at the door. “Well, I suppose there is no real harm.” He reached up and tapped the number on the door. “We are about fifty patrons under maximum capacity so we have extra staff floating around.” He stepped past them and continued on. “Have your fun… carry on.” As he headed up the stairwell and vanished, Daydream let out a long breath.
“Fucking hell.” He looked up at the ceiling.
“Nice cover.” Big Ben patted his shoulder. “Not like it isn’t the truth either.”
“That was…” Aron sighed.
“Too close.” Nora sighed.
The door cracked open and Evershy stuck her head out. “We were listening at the door, get in here.”
“That was intense.” Windy noted. “Can’t believe he bought that.”
“He didn’t.” Daydream said as he sat on the bed. “At least not fully.”
“What do you mean?” Evershy asked.
“He doesn’t do rounds, some creature must have told him we were out.”
“Actually, there might be a reason for that.” Windy cut in. “We found a room filled with monitors, every inch of the public areas are being watched 24/7.”
So they saw us moving together.” Daydream nodded. “Well, we may have looked suspicious but there’s no proof we did anything. But even though the story I gave him will check out, we’ll be under a microscope now. He noted what room you’re in too, and he made sure we saw him do it.” He put his head in his hands. “Shit… shit shit shit .”
“Hey.” Evershy sat beside him and put her arm around his back. “He can’t prove anything outright.”
“Shy is right.” Windy added. “All we have to do is lay low and keep our mouths shut.”
“Mrs. Windy…” Aron started.
“Has a point.” Nora ended.
“Ben.” Daydream sat back up. “Order us some food and drinks, enough to make it look like we’re having a party in here. Having that on the order log will help verify our story.”
“Right.” Ben went to the phone and got on with room service.
They all sat quiet until Windy finally grabbed the remote and turned on the television. “Hey.” She called their attention. “Cheer up, we accomplished what we wanted and we’re all still here.” She went through the guide until finding the music channels, she picked the R & B channel and a decade old hit filled the room. “If our cover story is that you’re partying with us, then we might as well party.” She tossed the remote on the dresser.
“Room service is on its way.” Ben informed.
“Perfect.” Windy took his hand in hers. “Now show me some moves, B.B.”
Windy managed to get them into the spirt of things and they started partying through the wee hours of the morning. When the food and drink arrived they broke out the bottles and got themselves sauced. Windy convinced the twins to show off their singing as they sang along with the music from the television and Evershy danced along with Daydream, getting a little frisky with him as her inhibitions lowered. As five o’clock rolled around, the lightweight twins petered out and went to sleep on one of the beds. Windy lowered the music and pulled the blanket over them.
“Might be time to call it a night… or morning.” Evershy laughed.
“Mind if we stay too?” Daydream asked. “I honestly don’t feel safe leaving you two alone now.”
“Of course you can.” Evershy nodded. “I do feel safer with you all here.”
“Cool.” He went to a chair and sat, kicking his legs out.
Evershy went into the bathroom and changed into her nightgown. When she came out she noticed that Windy had already killed most of the lights and Daydream was trying to curl up in the chair. “Hey.” She went to him. “I’m not going to make you sleep in this chair, you can sleep with me.”
“I… I can?” He asked.
“I don’t mind.” She said with a warm smile.
“Oh, thanks.” He smiled back and followed her over to the bed; carefully lying next to her and trying to stay close to the edge.
Windy came out of the bathroom, having changed herself, and saw Ben sitting on the couch in the adjacent room quietly watching the second television. “Hey, B.B.; still not tired?” She asked as she sat next to him.
“Just thinking.” He said as he stared at the mindless infomercial.
“Lot of that going around.” She leaned on the arm. “What’s on your mind?”
He glanced over at her. “Going through with this is going to put us out of a job, I was just wondering where I’ll go from here.” He laughed shortly. “Assuming we make it back.”
She eyed him with a hint of wonder. “How’d you wind up here anyway?”
“Ha.” He thought back over his life. “Dropped out of high school for one.”
“Really?” She asked in surprise. “I never would have guessed, you seem pretty well rounded.”
“Thanks, Mrs. Whistles.”
“Windy.” She kicked his knee. “You boys keep trying to make me feel old.”
“Sorry, Windy.” He smiled down at her. “Anyway, a friend of mine was part of a big hiring wave here. He let me in on it and got me recruited. No diploma required and an endless stream of women… every drop out’s dream job.”
“Don’t sound so excited.” She noticed his always somber attitude.
He laughed and nodded. “It feels good down here.” He grabbed his cock. “But after a while… not so good up here.” He tapped his finger to his temple. “I regret not finishing school; at the end of the day I’m just an uneducated boy toy. It sounds fun on paper but it’s not all its cracked up to be.” He sighed heavily. “Even sex isn’t always a thrill for me. Other guys are always jealous but they shouldn’t be, being this… big … has its drawbacks.”
“Like what?” She sat back up.
“I haven’t found a woman who could actually take me.” He explained. “I tried once a few years ago; I got into it and I… really hurt her.” His face saddened. “Ever since I always held back. Mostly, sex for me is just oral or a tit job if I’m lucky; but I won’t try to actually have sex with any creature. I don’t want to hurt anyone again.”
“Geez.” Windy laid her hand on his knee. “Poor thing, all the women want you but you can’t really have them.”
“Like a monkey paw wish.” He chortled.
Windy got up and closed the door leading to bedroom. She went back to him with a smile and bopped his nose with her finger. “You want to fuck me ?”
“Huh?”
“I can take you.” She said surely.
“Well… I want to… but…” His unsure eyes looked into hers.
She took his massive head and kissed him; his hands enveloped her waist as he kissed her back. Windy parted her lips, his broad tongue filling her mouth as she sucked on it aggressively. Reaching down, she groped the expanding bulge in his shorts and gave him a solid squeeze. “You might want to take these off.” She whispered as she broke their kiss.
“Sure.” Ben stood and ditched the restrictive article of clothing before sitting back down.
“Mm.” Windy got on her knees and wrapped her hands around his still growing erection. She licked and kissed it, rolling her palm on the tip until he finally reached his full length. “Fuck.” She rubbed her cheek against it and massaged his heavy balls. “You must be so pent up, B.B." Her hand glided up and down his length. "I bet you just want to cut loose and slam this baby in some creature.”
“Yeah.” He said softly, greatly enjoying her eager foreplay.
“And these big boys.” She wrapped her mouth around one of his testicles, his deep moan rumbling through his body and into her own. She sank lower and dragged her tongue over the sweaty orbs, gripping the base of his cock firmly.
“Windy.” He looked down at her. “Are you sure about this?”
“Uh huh.” She licked her way up his shaft as she stood, taking the head into her mouth and sucking the built up pre out of him. “You’re a bit bigger than my husband." She noted as she popped him out of her mouth. "But nothing I can’t handle.”
“Just a bit?” He repeated.
“Well… about twenty percent.” Windy pulled off her night shirt and took down her panties. She stood on the couch, her feet firmly planted on either side of him. Reaching down and grabbing him, she teased herself with the tip of his cock. “Ready?”
“Yes.” He nodded.
“Okay.” Windy began to squat, pressing him into her and gradually descending. With slow pace and calm breaths, she went lower and lower; her abdomen visibly distending with the outline of his stallionhood. “Oh fuck.” She muttered as quietly as she could. “So big.” She bit her lip as she lowered even more, his thick ring popping into her.
“God.” Ben panted as he felt himself go deeper inside of her. “You’re so tight.”
“Every creature is tight for you, honey.” Windy breathed a laugh. “But thank you.” She slipped down onto her knees as the last bit of him filled her to the absolute limit. “There.” Her hands wandered his chiseled chest. “How’s that feel?”
“Amazing.” His head fell back against the wall. “I’ve never been all the way in before.”
She fell forward onto him, running her fingers around his shoulders, triceps and biceps. “Ohh, I wish Bow was here.”
“Your husband?”
“Yeah.” Windy moaned. “I’d have him put it in my ass.”
“Wow.” Ben said in sheer awe of her appetite. “He's a lucky guy.”
“Aw, thanks.” She pecked his cheek with a kiss. “Now, let me just…” She began moving her hips in an oval and dragging her nipples across his course fur. “Damn… I think…” She stared into his eyes. “Put your arms around me.” He wrapped his strong arms around her and held her close. “Oh god, B.B… you’re a mountain .” She panted faster and faster. “I gonna cum just having you inside me.” With a heavy whine she buried her face in his neck as a sudden orgasm claimed her, she growled into his shoulder to muffle the sound as he held her shivering body. She took a minute and gathered herself before pulling back, a lustful look in her eyes. “Fuck me, B.B.” He took her ass in both hands and raised her halfway up his length. With utmost caution he began to move his hips; his breath rapid as his mind was overwhelmed by the experience. Seeing that he was still holding back, she brought her lips to his ear to give him some encouragement. “I’m not made of glass, babe.” She whispered. “I said fuck me.”
“Windy.” Ben growled her name as he stood, easily hoisting her into the air. He grabbed the base of her tail in one hand, her left hip in the other, and forced her down on his cock. Handling her like a doll, he pulled her up until he nearly popped out and brought her down again.
Windy reached around and grabbed a fistful of his mane. “Yes! Like that!” She held onto him tightly. “Fuck me! Use me! Use me until that big, fucking dick of yours explodes !” With heavy snorts and deep grunts he slammed her down onto him repeatedly, using her as a life sized sex toy. Ben started to lose himself in the moment, having never felt anything like this in his life; the head of his cock repeatedly smashed into her cervix and quickly brought him to the edge. Windy yanked on his mane; biting his shoulder and digging her fingers into his back as she came again, the feeling of being taken so forcefully too much for her senses.
“I’m cumming!” Ben throbbed inside of her, with nowhere for his seed to go it quickly began spraying out of her with every successive thrust; leaking onto his balls and down his legs to the carpet. He fell to his knees and laid Windy on her back, pushing her legs forward with his forearms as he continued to pound her.
“Oh god!” Windy reached up and held onto his neck. “You’re still going?”
“Not stopping.” Ben managed through his rapid breathing. “I’ve needed this for so long... and you feel too good.” He maintained his intense pace, staring down into her eyes with a deep seated hunger.
“Fine by me.” She returned the look. “Give me all you’ve got.” Ben lowered his forehead to hers as he felt himself swell. He slowed a bit and switched to long, hard thrusts as he worked to build himself up again. Windy cried out with each stroke, his balls slapping against her raised ass like a leather purse. "Fuck, B.B... I... ahhh!" She came a third time, slamming her head against the carpet as she writhed under his powerful body. He held himself deep inside her as she spasmed, slowly dragging himself all the way out as her body calmed.
“Turn over.” He ordered through a hard breath as he sat back onto his knees.
Windy gladly got on her hands and knees, her gaping pussy twitching as she pushed her ass up for him. “Yes.” She looked back at him with passion crazed eyes. “Keep going… I want more !” Ben grabbed her waist and impaled her, immediately resuming his fevered pace. He gripped her tail in one hand and grabbed her neck and right shoulder with the other, pulling her back into him. “Come on!” She demanded. “Harder ! Fuck me, damn it!” Windy gripped the carpet as he did as she asked. She was amazed by his seemingly endless stamina; finding her fourth orgasm from the nigh thirty minutes of nonstop sex.
Ben’s mind was almost blank as he desperately tried to drive himself to a consecutive orgasm. For him, Windy was the find of a lifetime and he had no intention of leaving anything behind in this encounter. “Windy.” He fell forward, palming her breast and laying his head over her shoulder. “Tell me how much you love this.”
“I love your cock, babe.” She grunted. “It’s so good!”
“Yeah?” He asked, feeling himself building once more.
“Fuck yes, B.B.” She said breathlessly. “I can’t get enough!” Her head twisted and she brushed her lips against his cheek. "Cum for me B.B. Please... I want it all over me."
“Oh… Windy!” He pulled out and started jacking himself off. Windy flipped onto her back, mouth and legs wide open. “Fuck !” He let out a staggered moan as he finally came again, everything he had left shooting out onto the sweat soaked mare.
“God yes!” Windy fingered herself under the thick rain, bringing herself off for the fifth time.
Ben sat back on his calves, fully spent for the first time in as long as he could remember. His eyes rolled down to Windy, she was staring up at him with a satisfied grin. “Thank you.” He said through an exhausted breath.
Windy got to her hooves and stepped over to him, brushing the sweat matted mane from his eyes. "Anytime." She kissed his nose and pushed him back onto the carpet; laying on top of him and getting comfortable. "Feel better?"
"You have no idea." He laughed and put his arms around her. "You're something else."
"I do my best." Windy collected a dollop of his cum on her finger and stuck it in her mouth. "So, ready to keep going?"
His casual smile faded in shock as he realized she was serious.
Windy and Shy: Cruise Controlled
When Evershy awoke, she found that at some point during the night she and Daydream and scooted closer and cuddled together. He was still asleep, his face buried in her chest. She smiled, finding waking up in such a fashion rather comforting after their earlier exploits.
“Daydream?” She softly called, running her fingers through his mane.
Daydream mumbled and settled into her even more. “Mrs. Shy… you’re so… soft…” He muttered in his unconscious state.
“Daydream.” She shook him a bit harder, holding back her laugh at the sweet display.
He finally began to rouse, his opening eyes peering straight down her nightgown. “Wha!?” He backed up and observed his situation. “Mrs. Shy?” He pulled his hands away from her. “I’m sorry, I must have…”
“It’s okay.” She promised. “I think we both decided to get more comfortable.”
Daydream laughed. “Hell of a way to wake up.”
Evershy sighed and laid her hand on his cheek. “I’m… sorry, Daydream.”
“For what?” He asked.
“I just feel like I keep teasing you.” Her thumb traced his jaw.
“It’s okay.” Daydream laid his hand over hers. “I’ve never really just been close to any creature like this. I like it.” He smiled.
“Well, that’s… oh!” Evershy gasped as she felt something jab into her thigh.
“Oh shit!” Daydream realized he was getting aroused and drew his hips back. “Sorry.”
“That’s alright.” She peered down the sheets. “Oh my, really… worked up, huh?” She laughed lightly.
“Uh, yeah.” He admitted with embarrassment. “I haven’t touched another creature since this trip started. I uh… was kind of saving it all for you.” His eyes shyly rolled away from her.
“Oh.” She blushed. “That’s… sweet.”
“I know you’re not looking to hook-up, I’ll keep it in…”
“It’s not like I haven’t thought about it, you know.” She interrupted.
“R…really?” He looked back to her in surprise.
“Of course.” Evershy’s hand drifted to his chest. “The fact that a handsome, young guy like you could find an old mare like me so desirable, feels… nice.” She smiled. “I like you, Daydream; it’s just that this is very complicated for me. I’ve already got a few things that I’m going to have to work out… if we can make it off this ship anyway.”
“We will.” Daydream nodded surely. “I’m not going to let Solstice lay a finger on you.”
“Thank you.” She gazed into his eyes and they slowly moved closer to one another.
“Morning!” Windy said cheerfully as she strode into the room, startling them greatly.
“Windy?” Evershy sat up and observed her. “Where are your clothes?”
“Oh, B.B. and I had some fun earlier.” She winked.
“Wait.” Daydream looked back towards the other room. “You actually fucked Big Ben?”
“Yeah.” She glanced back to see him still sleeping on the floor. “Took two rounds to tire him out. I had to really work for the third one.” She laughed. “After that he passed out, like a giant angel.”
“Your friend is something else.” Daydream whispered.
“She certainly is.” Evershy smiled.
“Hey, where’s Aron and Nora?” Windy looked over to the empty, second bed.
“I don’t know, they were there when we went to sleep.” Daydream noted.
“We didn’t hear them leave.” Evershy added.
Windy tried to imagine why they would have left without word. “I’m… gonna take a quick shower and go find them.” She hurried into the bathroom, having grown worried about them. Quickly cleaning up, she threw on some clothes and went to look for the twins. After some fevered wandering she found them at a table in the food court. “Hey, why did you take off like that? I was getting scared.” Windy asked as she stood before them, they looked up at her; startled from their quiet conversation. She noticed the depressed look in each of their eyes and frowned. “What’s wrong, sweeties?” They let out matching heavy breaths.
“We heard you…” Aron began.
“This morning.” Nora finished.
“You seemed to…” Aron looked up at her.
“Truly enjoy Ben.” Nora did the same.
“He seems to…” Aron turned to Nora.
“Be a perfect fit for you.” Nora turned to Aron.
“Which means you…” Aron said shallowly.
“No longer need us .” Nora said in equal tone.
“We can’t compare to him.” Aron sighed.
“Can’t compare at all.” Nora sighed.
“Hey… hey.” Windy sat between them. “That’s not the least bit true.” She wrapped her arms around their waists. “Geez, you two are pretty dry in the self-esteem department.” She thought for a moment. “Listen, you know what women like more than anything?”
“What’s…” Aron started.
“That?” Nora ended.
“Confidence .” She shook them. “And we really need to work on yours. If you constantly compare yourselves to every other guy then you’re never going to be happy; and you don’t need to compare yourselves anyway. B.B. is… unique, but so are the two of you. He brings things to the table that you can’t but you two brings things that he can’t. It isn’t a contest.” She pulled them into her. “Being with you two is an experience, just as much as being with B.B. is; they’re completely different experiences but they felt just as good.” Windy kissed them both. “I wouldn’t dream of giving you two up. After all we’ve been through on this looney trip, the three of us are a package deal until the end.” A sincere cheer returned to the pair's eyes.
“Thank you…” Aron smiled.
“Mrs. Windy.” Nora smiled.
“That’s better.” Windy cuddled them. “Come on, let’s get back and take a look at all the ‘you know what’ we found.” She took them back to the cabin; finding Evershy and a finally awakened Ben huddled around her notebook.
“There you are.” Evershy waved them over as soon as they entered. “Come take a look at this.” She looked back into the other room. “Daydream?”
“Coming.” He jogged in.
“What have you got, Shy?” Windy asked as they joined the conference.
“I’ve been looking up the materials you found in the shipment log.” Evershy looked up at her with great concern. “Solstice is dealing with some dangerous things.”
“Everything in those crates is some form of mind altering substance.” Ben continued. “Hallucinogens, mood modifiers, aphrodisiacs… the list goes on and on.”
Daydream balled his fist. “So he was lying about that ‘all natural’ BS. I’m sorry Mrs. Shy, I never would have let you drink…”
“It’s okay.” Evershy reached over and gave his knee a tender squeeze. “You didn’t know. I don’t blame you or any of the crew; Solstice and the Captain clearly have their own agenda that goes beyond just running this cruise.”
“But what?” Windy considered the options. “What does he have to gain by… getting every creature laid.”
“This goes farther…” Aron looked at the screen.
“Than Breath of Fresh Air.” Nora joined his observation.
“What do you mean?” Daydream asked.
“Breath of Fresh Air…” Aron began.
“Enhances sexual desire.” Nora ended.
“But many of these plants and chemicals…” Aron pointed to the screen.
“Have nothing to do with that.” Nora did the same.
“So you’re saying that he’s experimenting with more than just a creature’s sex drive.” Evershy surmised.
“Then who knows what else he’s doing to the guests.” Ben looked over his fellow crewmates. “To us .”
“There are three days left on the ship's tour.” Daydream noted. “What do we do?”
“Act natural for today.” Windy suggested. “Tomorrow, I say we take out that antennae so we can use our phones to call the authorities.”
“How the hell are we supposed to do that?” Daydream asked.
“Hey, I came up with the idea.” She put her fists to her hips. “Only fair that one of you figures out how to make it work.”
The unsettled group began to laugh, easing their tension. Ben stood tall and went to the door. “The four of us need to be seen on deck, doing our job.” He advised. “We have a solid alibi, if any creature asks you what was going on last night, just stick to our story.”
“I’m not keen on leaving them here alone, Ben.” Daydream crossed his arms.
“Daydream.” Evershy rose and put her arms around his neck. “We’ll be fine. Just go about your day and you can all come back tonight.”
“Alright.” He sighed in concession.
“Thank you.” She kissed his cheek.
“If anything happens…” Aron added.
“We won’t be far.” Nora nodded.
“Okay, keep your cool out there.” Windy ran a finger across both their beaks. “See you later.” As the boys left, Windy went into the other room and made a pair of gin and tonics. “After this, I’m going to need a vacation from this vacation.” She laughed and handed one to Evershy.
“At least we can’t say this trip wasn’t exciting.” Evershy took a long sip.
“Sure can’t.” Windy slid her arm around Evershy’s waist. “So, how about we get out of this room for a bit? I could use some air and honestly, being in a public space is probably safer.” She downed the rest of her drink, letting out a stiff exhale.
“Yeah. Sounds good.”
“And don’t worry.” Windy giggled and kissed her. “I’ll keep the guys off of you.”
“My hero.” Evershy laughed as she went to change clothes.
Daydream, Ben and the twins went about their day normally in spite of the knowledge with which their minds were now burdened. Four days in and with a generous helping of Solstice’s cocktail in the guests and crew, the cruise was basically an orgy at this point. The pleasure they typically felt at the sight of the haphazard lovemaking had been replaced with a gnawing fear and concern. Daydream pushed a bar cart, an easy way to be seen without having to engage much. He passed out alcohol as he lapped the decks, getting hit on but politely declining with the excuse of keeping up his route. His eyes often drifted to the bridge, the silhouette of the enigmatic Captain ever present; he wondered just what kind of creature could be capable of drugging an entire ship and didn’t much care for the answers his mind came up with. Ben had a harder time laying low, the popular stallion almost as much of an attraction as anything else on the ship. He happened across his close friend Cobalt as he walked the ship, the pegasi sped over to him and slapped his arm.
“There you are, haven’t seen you around much the last two days.” He smiled up at Ben.
“Yeah, sorry about that.” Ben said calmly. “Been spending some time with a particular mare.”
“What?” Cobalt looked at him in shock. “Has the ship’s resident love machine been wrangled?”
“You could say that.” He nodded. “Anything going on lately?”
“Just the usual.” Cobalt looked around. “Things are pretty much in full swing.”
Ben looked up at the bridge. “Hey, have you ever actually met the Captain?”
“Huh?” Cobalt followed his eyes up to the bridge. “No. I mean I always see him up there but Solstice is the only one who ever talks to him.”
“You don’t find that… strange ?” Ben looked back down at him.
“Never really thought about it.” He admitted. “Solstice said he’s one of those eccentric types. You know, reclusive and all that. Maybe he’s a germaphobe or something. Why the sudden interest?”
“Morbid curiosity I guess.” Ben laughed shortly.
“Well hey, I’ve got to get down to the casino.” Cobalt punched Ben’s solid stomach. “I’ll see you.”
“Right, see ya.” Ben waved as he continued his walkabout.
The twins had spent their time seated on the railing of the stern, not moving for the course of the day. Interest in them was always low so they were often left to their own devices. They stared up at the bridge, the shadows of Solstice and the Captain playing off the shaded glass. Their mysteriously connected minds pondered the problem at hand as the world passed by around them.
“Are you thinking…” Aron began.
“What you’re thinking?” Nora ended. “Yes, are we sure it will…”
“Work?” Aron continued. “Yes.”
“If we succeed then…” Nora started.
“The Captain and Solstice will fall, and…” Aron went on.
“We will have nowhere to go.” Nora concluded. “But that doesn’t matter to us anymore…”
“Does it?” Aron asked. “No, it doesn’t. We need to do what’s right and we need to…”
“Protect the guests and our crewmates.” Nora finished. “And we have to…”
“Keep her safe.” Aron carried on. “Mrs. Windy is important to us…”
“Isn’t she?” Nora asked. “Yes, she is. We feel something…”
“Special for her.” Aron nodded. “She and Mrs. Shy are good mares.”
“We must be confident…” Nora looked at Aron.
“As Mrs. Windy said.” Aron looked back at him.
“No more feeling weak.” Nora said surely.
“No more.” Aron said with equal measure.
Windy and Evershy kept off the main deck, staying mostly on the second and third lower decks. Most of the shows and other attractions were dead as the guests and crew spent the day fucking each other senseless. Keeping to themselves, they ate lunch and listened to the live music that still played unhindered.
“Kind of makes you wonder, huh Shy?” Windy’s eyes panned the large court.
“What?” Evershy asked.
“How much of this is them and how much is whatever they’ve been drinking?” She explained her question. “The boys said that Breath of Fresh Air just intensifies what’s already under the surface. Do they… even know what they’re doing anymore?”
Evershy considered the question. “I think they do know, they just don’t care.” She sighed. “You could write essays on the implications of all this and the motives behind it… but at the end of the day it just boils down to gratifying a need.”
“Well, I don’t need some creepy cocktail to know I need you.” Windy ran her hoof up Evershy’s leg.
Evershy laughed and reached over the table to take her hand. “Same here.”
“How about we head back and wait for the boys?” Windy brought her hand up and kissed it.
“Sure.” Evershy squeezed her hand.
They headed back up to the main deck, moving towards the bow to reach the access to the cabin levels. A feeling of unease washed over them as they traveled and the source of that unease soon made itself known.
“Ladies.” Solstice stepped from stairwell leading to the lower level as they neared. “Good afternoon.”
“Oh.” Evershy smiled as much as she could manage. “Hello.”
“I hope everything is well.” He said cordially.
“Yeah, everything has been great.” Windy nodded. “We were just going back to our cabin.” She took a step forward but he didn’t move.
“Miss, I am not one to mince words or waste time.” He looked over them. “I have sufficient evidence to suggest that you, at the very least, have accessed areas on this ship that are off limits to passengers. I think that we should speak.”
Windy stepped in front of Evershy. “We haven’t done anything like that, and there are four members of your own crew who know that we haven’t.”
“Yes yes.” He sighed. “Daydream, Big Ben, Aron and Nora. I have every intent to speak to them as well. Nevertheless, I require that you come with me.”
“We’re not going anywhere against our will.” Evershy noted.
“Forgive me, you seem to think I’m asking .” He glanced over their shoulders and two members of the crew blocked them off.
“Try it.” Windy challenged. “You should know that my daughter is a 2nd degree black belt in Jiu Jitsu.”
“That would concern me, why?” Solstice asked, unamused.
“Who do think taught her?” Windy pushed Evershy to the side, holding a stance in front of her. As the crew memebers came at her she stepped forward; hooking her hoof behind the stallion’s leg, gripping his shoulder and slamming him into the ground. She took the second by the wrist and dragged him into a standing arm-bar; she placed her palm to his back, swept his legs out from under him and drove him into the deck. “Let’s go!” She grabbed Evershy’s hand and pulled her along.
“Honestly.” Solstice looked down at the floored young stallions, he stepped over them and casually pursued.
“Daydream!? Ben!?” Evershy called as they crossed the bow.
“Aron!? Nora!?” Windy called in tandem.
“Mrs. Shy?” Daydream left his bar cart at the sound of her voice and ran to them. “Are you two okay?”
“Solstice tried to grab us.” Windy informed.
“He what?”
“Where are the others?” Evershy asked.
“The twins are near the stern, I haven’t seen Ben.” He pointed to the opposite end of the boat. “Let’s keep moving.”
The three of them ran towards the stern, catching the confused eyes of the guests they passed. When they reached the rear of the ship they saw the brothers still idling near the railing; the twins noticed their friends' hurried approach and quickly went to them.
“What is…” Aron began.
“The matter?” Nora ended the question.
“We’ve got trouble.” Daydream explained. “Solstice isn’t playing games anymore, he tried to abduct them.”
“What can…” Aron looked to Windy.
“We do?” Nora did the same.
“You can stop this nonsense.” Solstice’s voice called out as he approached with more crew at his sides. “This is a ship. Where exactly do think you can go?”
“Anywhere you’re not.” Windy answered.
“Cute.” He pointed at them. “Detain them, please.”
Daydream, Aron and Nora blocked the approaching crew. “Listen.” Daydream held his hands up. “Solstice is lying to you, he’s been lying to all of us.”
“Just come with us.” The dragon said calmly. “Whatever is going on, you’re only making it worse.”
“You’re not…” Aron barred his talons.
“Touching them.” Nora copied the defensive stance.
“Solstice!” A heavy voice echoed over the scene.
“Ah, the other one.” Solstice turned back to see Ben making his way over.
“You might be delegated authority, but you’re not in charge.” Ben challenged. “As members of this crew, we have every right to take any grievance before the Captain if we feel it necessary. We demand to see him, now .”
Solstice saw that the other guests were watching the commotion closely. He smiled and tipped his head. “As you wish.” Solstice looked over his loyal crew. “Return to work, I will see to this matter myself.” He gestured up to the bridge. “Follow me.”
With slightly hesitant looks, the group began following Solstice up to the bridge. In spite of the situation, he remained fully calm as if sure he was still in control. As they walked up the metal stairs and stood before the door, Solstice removed his personal keycard and unlocked the entrance. He stepped aside and held his hand out to the interior. “Please, after you.”
The six of them entered and were immediately assaulted by a heavy stench. Evershy cupped her hands over her mouth, screaming at what was before them. The gaunt and partially mummified remains of a stallion stood before the controls, held aloft and moving by means of an intricate rig of wires, pulleys and actuators like a macabre marionette.
“What the fuck!?” Daydream jumped as it turned to face them, moving to the other side of bridge and holding its position.
“Well, are you going to say your peace?” Solstice’s voice came from behind them; turning back, they found him aiming a silenced pistol at them.
“You sick bastard.” Ben said angrily. “What the hell is this?”
“The good Captain here died a few years ago.” Solstice waved his gun around whimsically. “Since the ship and this operation were in his name, I kept him around to keep things running smoothly.” He sighed heavily. “I’m disappointed you know, getting yourselves killed over a couple pairs of tits.”
“You think you’ll get away with any of this?” Windy asked. “You’re crazier than I thought.”
“I’ve done it before.” Solstice said evenly as he pulled the trigger.
“No!” Ben dropped down and took the bullet in his shoulder.
“B.B.!” Windy grabbed him.
“You’ll pay…” Aron rushed him
“For that!” Nora followed. They collided with Solstice, sending his next shot through one of the wires holding the Captain’s body up; the dried corpse dangling from one arm. Aron sank his talon into Solstice’s wrist, making him drop the gun. Nora pushed him up against the railing and the three of them spilled over the side and went crashing down to the main deck.
“Oh no!” Evershy ran out and looked down to see the three of them struggling to rise.
Back inside, Windy got Ben to his hooves; the bullet doing little to keep him down. “Daydream.” He pointed to the control. “Get on the P.A., let every creature know what is happening.”
“Right.” Daydream set himself to the console while Ben and Windy chased after the others.
Down on the main deck, the surrounding guests and crew stood stricken at what was happening. Solstice managed to get to his hooves and stared down at the twin griffons. “You miserable little parasites!” He kicked Aron in the stomach, lifting him into the air.
“Stop it!” Nora ran in but Solstice took him by the throat; trying to slash at him, the much larger stallion held him far enough away to avoid his swipes while he strangled him.
“Let go of my griffon!” Windy spread her wings and launched herself in the air, kicking Solstice in the shoulder and freeing Nora. Ben and Evershy helped Aron up and Solstice growled in irritation as he faced them. Before he could speak, Daydream’s voice came over the loudspeaker.
“Attention guests and crew.” He began. “This is Daydream, the Captain is dead. He’s… been dead. Solstice has been lying to the crew about everything, and to the guests about Breath of Fresh Air. If you’re drinking it, you need to stop immediately. The drink contains drugged additives that affect the mind and honestly, I can’t even say what all is in it at this point.” As he spoke, the deck began to grow crowded with crew and guest alike. “As a member of the crew here, I’m not going to lie and say we weren’t aware. But we were lied to about just what it was and how it worked… I know that isn’t an excuse but we’re trying to stop this now. I’m asking all of the crew here to stand up against Solstice; he’s dangerous, crazy and he’s trying to kill my friends. Get to the main deck now and help us!” Daydream’s voice ceased and Solstice looked about at the countless eyes that were on him.
“It’s over.” Ben stated. “Just stand down.”
Solstice laughed and began to remove his great coat. “Hardly, if you think I’m above killing every living thing on this ship then you’ve already lost.” His coat fell, revealing a tactical vest that was lined with the bizarre, paintball like pellets they had seen in his lab. His statement brought fear to the guests but the crew started to close in on him.
“Wow, Daydream is right.” One of them said. “You’re out of your mind.”
“Think what you will.” Solstice dismissed the claim. “As if any of you have any ground over me. I gave you all jobs, purpose, free food, endless entertainment and more females than you could ever handle. You all jumped at the chance; all of you adrift in your sad, pathetic lives. All I asked of you was to indulge and fuck your lives away so that I could continue to fund my work.”
“You're right about that.” Daydream said as he jumped down from the second deck. “And we’ll answer up for taking part in this, but you’re still done.”
“Fine then.” He plucked several of the pellets from his vest. “Come stop me.” Another griffon who was behind him tried to charge in, Solstice spun and slammed a blue pellet into his chest. As soon as it made contact, the griffon’s eyes welled with tears; he stumbled past Solstice and fell to the ground in the fetal position. Holding his eyes, he wailed like a baby to the combined terror of the others.
“What did…” Aron looked down at him.
“You do to him?” Nora stared down with equal unsettledness.
Solstice shuffled the pellets in hand. “Did you think lust was the only emotion I’ve mastered?” He asked mockingly, holding out the assorted rainbow of projectiles. “Lust, fear, rage, cheer, grief, agony… my research has given me the ability to make any creature feel whatever I wish them to and whenever I choose. These little balls here contain the purest form of each chemical compound, getting hit with one will spur you into the most extreme case of each emotional response.”
“Holy shit, he really is a movie villain.” Windy proclaimed.
“He’s still outnumbered.” Daydream said. “We can bring him down.”
“Am I?” Solstice tossed a red pellet into his opposite hand and pitched it into Amber, a larger dragon on par with Ben. He doubled over, his eyes burning as he punched the deck. Amber roared and sent fire into the air, those around him retreating.
“Shit.” Ben balled his fist. “I’ll deal with him.” He looked out over the crew. “Half of you get the guests to safety! The rest of you, help subdue Solstice.” Ben charged at the wild dragon and locked hands with him, narrowly dodging the blast of fire that was sent his way. The guests began to run under the aid of some of the crew while Daydream, Windy, Aron and Nora scattered.
“Mrs. Shy, let us handle this!” Daydream called back to her. “Get somewhere safe.”
Solstice whipped a handful of the balls at them. Daydream weaved while Windy and the Twins flew over him. They tried to get near him but their fear of getting hit successfully kept them at bay. More of the crew came in to help; Solstice pegged a pair of them, sending one into a violent fit of uncontrollable laughter and the other to the ground as his mind perceived unbearable pain.
"Damn you!" Cobalt appeared with a metal pole, he swung it at Solstice but missed and took a yellow pellet to the face.
"How brave." Solstice commended as the pegasi sailed by him. "Brave enough to stand up to pure terror?"
Cobalt dropped his weapon and shook in place, looking around in complete panic. "No!" He cried as he fell on his butt. "Help! Help me!" He waved his arms at unseen forces as he backed into the wall, other crewmates rushing over to try and calm him.
As they struggled with Solstice, Ben did his best to bring down the enraged dragon. His arm weak from the bullet wound, he quickly lost ground and suffered a rake to his chest.
“I’ll kill you!” Amber screamed as he bore down on Ben. His mouth opened to breathe fire but a heavy jet of water filled his maw and sent him back. Ben glanced over his shoulder to see Evershy with a firehose.
“Thanks!” Ben shouted back to her as he hurried in and drove his massive fist into Amber’s belly. As the dragon collapsed to his knees, another blow to the back of his head sent him into unconsciousness.
Solstice backed himself around to the port side where the deck was thinner, forcing his attackers into a chokepoint where he could easily hit them. Windy flew up to the second deck and ran down the port side to a position above him. The crew had to battle amongst itself as Solstice sent more of them into a blind fury, making them attack whoever was closest. Daydream, Aron and Nora took cover, finding themselves all that was left to deal with the threat.
“Damn it.” Daydream cursed. “Any ideas?”
“We need…” Aron started.
“A shield.” Nora concluded.
“A shield… a…” Daydream looked about and got an idea; he dashed out and across the deck, rolling behind the lift for the life boat. He reached out and grabbed the tarp that covered the interior of the small craft and threw it over himself. “Aron, Nora, be my eyes!” He stepped out and blindly ran down the deck towards Solstice.
“Left!” Aron called, guiding him away from a table.
“Right!” Nora called, steering him from extending wall.
Solstice’s pellets hit the tarp and did nothing so he braced for impact. Seeing that he had forsaken his weapon for a moment, Windy flew down behind him.
"Hey asshole." She called his attention.
"Arrogant bitch!" Solstice turned and sent his fist at her, Windy caught his arm and drove her knee into his stomach. She spun him to leave him disoriented and kicked him in the back, sending him straight for Daydream who approaching like a runaway train.
“Straight ahead!” The twins yelled in unison.
Daydream ran full force and collided into Solstice as he toppled forward; his shoulder rammed into his chest, causing the remaining pellets in his vest to burst simultaneously. Protected by the tarp, Daydream backed off as he heard Solstice cry out.
“No!” Solstice looked down at his chest. “You bastards, what have you…?” His body went stiff and he gurgled as exquisite pain began to course through his body. His brow furrowed and his eyes grew angry, but they overflowed with tears as he fell to his knees and began laughing maniacally. They watched in horror as Solstice convulsed, his angry screams of pain laced with hysterical howling. All at once he stopped, his face going completely blank before falling to his side in a heap.
“God.” Daydream huffed as he neared the body.
“Is he… dead?” Windy asked.
Kneeling down, Daydream watched Solstice’s chest and saw shallow breathing. “No. He’s still alive.”
Evershy and Ben hurried down the port side, coming to a stop at the silent scene. “Are you all okay?” Evershy queried.
“Yeah.” Windy nodded. “You?”
“We’re alright.” She said in exhaustion. “We subdued the crew that lost control.”
“Shit.” Daydream fell against the wall.
“Does this mean…” Aron began.
“That we've won?” Nora ended.
“Seems like it.” Ben walked over to the fallen Solstice. “What happened to him?”
“He got hit with all his crazy shit at once.” Daydream explained. “Looks like it fried his brain.”
“Good.” Ben said shallowly. “We need to deactivate the dish and call the authorities.”
“Right.” Windy thumbed back towards the stern. “I’ll check on the guests and the rest of the crew.”
“We will…” Aron stepped over to Solstice.
“Tie him up.” Nora followed.
“Okay, Mrs. Shy and I will go to the bridge.” Daydream went to the injured Ben. “You need to get to the staff doctor.”
“Right.” He nodded.
“Hey.” Windy called their attention. “Great job.” She smiled proudly. The group shared a tired smile before they headed out to begin securing the ship.
Windy and Shy: Cruise Controlled
It took some doing, but Evershy and her friends were able to get the ship under control. After securing the vegetative Solstice, Windy and the twins rallied the rest of the crew to begin calming the guests and bringing back some semblance of order. Daydream made an announcement over the P.A. system to assure the guests that they were safe and the proper authorities were being contacted. Once the signal jammer was disabled, Evershy was able to get in touch with the coast guard and readily recapped all that had happened. She was instructed to have the crew kill the ship’s engines and wait for help to arrive. Given that it would take more than a day for them to be reached, Daydream ordered all activities on the ship to be cancelled and for the crew to continue to provide food, drink and whatever else the guests needed. The crew’s medical staff saw to any creature that was injured or affected by Solstice’s chemical weapon; fortunately the effects proved temporary and their bodies naturally came down from the emotional highs. Ben was among the treated, having the bullet removed from his shoulder and the wound fully bandaged. He was released and returned to the deck to see how the others were doing in their efforts. Windy spotted him first and ran over to check on him.
“B.B.” She observed the thick, padded bandage. “How’s the arm?”
“No permanent damage.” He rolled the sore joint. “Missed the bone, just muscle and tissue trauma.”
“Fortunately you’ve got muscle to spare.” She smiled and pulled his head down for a kiss. “Thank you, B.B. You’re a real hero.”
“Thanks.” He smiled, a bit embarrassed at the grand title. “How’s the ship?”
“Well, the crew has been tending the guests and Shy got in touch with the coast guard. We’re sitting still until they show up.”
“Guess all we can do is wait.” He sighed.
“You should eat, get your strength back up after all the blood loss.” She grabbed his hand.
“Sounds good.” He nodded, following as she pulled him along.
After being on the phone, an exhausted Evershy returned to the cabin to take a nap. Sprawled out on the bed, having not even changed clothes, she was roused by a knock. She answered the door to find Daydream on the opposite side.
“Hey.” Daydream saw the tired look in her eyes. “I’m sorry, did I wake you?”
“It’s okay, come on in.” Evershy smiled as she rubbed her eyes and headed back to the bed. “How are things coming along?” She asked, sitting on the edge of the mattress.
“Surprisingly, the guests have been taking this pretty well.” He sat beside her. “I mean, there’s some hard feelings about Breath of Fresh Air.” He admitted. “But the crew has been apologizing and trying to make it up to them as much as they can; there’s actually a pretty good dialogue going on though and for the most part they aren’t being hard on us… even though we deserve it.” He smiled over at her. “How about you? You okay?”
“Yeah.” Evershy nodded. “Even based on what we knew, I didn’t expect things to get as wild as they did.” She sighed with a thoughtful bob of her head. “It was pretty scary; and now that the adrenaline has worn off I realize just how close we came to getting ourselves killed.”
“Yeah… I’ve been feeling that too.” He laughed.
Evershy rested her hand on top of his. “There is no way we could have done this without you and the others. Thank you, Daydream.”
Daydream took her hand and squeezed it. “I would say ‘anytime ’, but I really don’t want to go through anything like that ever again.” They both laughed and he slowly rose from the bed. “I guess I should keep an eye on things, get some rest.”
She watched him as he turned to leave and time seemed to slow while her mind reviewed the last five days of her life. For a brief moment, in the eye of the tumultuous storm that was in her mind, she felt an instance of clarity. “Daydream?” She stood and followed him.
“Yeah?” He turned back only to be yanked into a deep kiss; overwhelmed at first, his arms soon went around her and pulled her into his body. His heart pounded as their lips parted, seeing her smiling up at him with the sweetest face he had ever laid eyes on. “Mrs…”
“Evershy.” She said. “Daydream, I’m tired of trying to convince myself I don’t want this, because I do.” Her finger’s swam up his chest and held his shoulders. “Stay here with me.”
“There’s no place I’d rather be, Evershy.” He held her cheeks and kissed her, pure bliss running through him as this moment he had wanted so badly finally arrived. They stumbled back and fell onto the bed; her legs spread as she welcomed the feeling of his strained bulge grinding against her dampening panties. Between the two of them, they hastily got her clothes off and she nearly tore her bra straps as she ripped the undergarment off. As her voluptuous chest fell free, he immediately lowered and took her left nipple into his mouth. Evershy gasped and wriggled under his rough suckling, pawing at his head as she mashed his face into her breast. Daydream swapped to her right, reaching down and tugging his shorts off; his legs worked and kicked until he was free of them and he slid off the bed onto his knees. Taking the waistline of her panties firmly, Daydream snapped the elastic with an adrenaline fueled pull and buried his tongue inside her. She screamed in delight at the feeling; grasping her chest and kneading her breasts, her soft thighs closing around his head as he ate her pussy like a starving wolf. He sucked air through his nose, absolutely refusing to pull his mouth away from her as he lost himself in her flavor. Evershy cried out and bucked her hips as his tongue battered her interior walls, the pleasure she felt almost too much to bear.
“God, Daydream!” She reached down and buried her fingers in his mane. “You’re going to make me cum!” Just hearing that was more than enough to make him double his already fevered efforts. He gripped her hips, lifting her lower body into her air and forcing his tongue as deep into her as it could go. His upper lip pressed into her clit and Evershy released her hold on him, falling back onto bed as she filled the room with a heavy groan. Daydream sucked down the swell of warmth that she filled his mouth with; her hanging body jerking wildly in his arms.
Daydream breathed deeply as he finally pulled back, his chin and chest soaked from her orgasm. He laid her back down and braced his hands on the bed, a wide smile on his face as he looked up the mattress at the panting beauty. “You taste better than anything on this ship.” He crawled up her body and kissed her, sharing the sweet taste.
“That was wonderful.” She stared up at him with glassy eyes, her hands running up and down his arms.
“Only because you are.” He kissed her neck.
“I can’t wait anymore.” She gripped his biceps. “Put it inside me, I need to feel you.”
“Are… you sure?” He asked, familiar with her hesitance on the matter.
“Yes, Daydream.” She assured with a confident smile. “Please fuck me, as hard as you want… just fuck me.” She begged.
Needing no further encouragement, he reached down and guided himself into her well lubricated entrance. With a single thrust his entire length disappeared into her, his fingers dug into the sheets at the all-consuming warmth that wrapped around his sex starved member. Evershy felt him bottom out inside of her, making her realize that this was actually happening. The feeling of the passionate young stallion in her was unlike anything she’d felt in so many years now and it rocked her senses. Answering her call, Daydream surrendered himself to the moment as he repeatedly slammed into her; their moans and heated words combining into a symphony of ecstasy as their sexual frustrations towards one another poured out. He soon rolled her onto her left side, lifting her right leg straight up as he mounted the left to get even deeper inside. He hugged her leg, his hips a blur as he pounded her; Evershy’s heavy breasts bounced wildly as he took her, her supple body rippling with each collision of their pelvises.
“Fuck!” He whined into her calf. “I can’t get enough of you, Evershy. You’re even better than I imagined… better than any mare I’ve ever been with.”
“I am?” She managed through her stuttered breaths.
“Absolutely!” He pushed her leg back even farther and drilled down into her.
Evershy teared up at how good he felt, how good she felt. For all the worry, fret and concern that had plagued her over her feelings, she finally felt free and reveled in it. Reaching up and grabbing the back of his neck, she pulled herself into him even harder. “Daydream… cum inside me! I want to feel it!”
Her sultry order did not fall on deaf ears as he quickly swelled. “Shit! Here it comes!” Daydream grabbed her breast for extra leverage as he pushed himself over the edge; days’ worth of built up seed flooding every square inch of her.
“Yes!” Evershy got onto her back again and pulled his body down onto her as she came again, holding him tightly as he spurted and twitched within her. As his massive climax subsided, Daydream melted on top of her and rested his cheek against hers. Everyshy hugged onto him tightly and they held their quiet embrace as their bodies calmed.
After eating with Ben, Windy scoured the ship in search of Aron and Nora. As she walked the decks, she was surprised to see so many of the guests and crew just sitting and talking; undoubtedly working out everything that had transpired. High up on the empty, third level deck she finally found them. The duo was looking out over the water in paired reflection.
“Hey boys.” She called.
“Mrs. Windy.” Aron turned sharply at the sound of her voice.
“Hello, Mrs. Windy.” Nora turned back as well.
“Everything okay?” She asked.
“Yes, the ship…” Aron looked down over the railing.
“Is finally calm again.” Nora ended as he peered down as well.
“How is…” Aron looked back to her.
“Ben doing?” Nora did the same.
“Up and moving.” Windy rested on the rail. “The others are okay too, whatever Solstice did them wasn’t permanent.” She looked over them. “How about you two? You guys took a fair amount of the beating.”
“We’re…” Aron nodded.
“Okay.” Nora copied him.
“You two were real studs out there.” She smiled and palmed their heads. “Like you needed to do anymore to win me over.”
“We’re just glad…” Aron reached up and took her hand.
“You’re okay, Mrs. Windy.” Nora took her opposite.
“You’re very…” Aron smiled.
“Important to us.” Nora smiled with equal brightness.
“Boys.” She smiled lovingly.
“We know that we…” Aron began solemnly.
“Can’t be with you.” Nora said in similar measure.
“But we really…” Aron gazed up at her.
“Love you.” Nora shared his enamored stare.
Windy struggled to hide her tear, she grabbed the backs of their heads and mushed them into her breasts. “You two are too much.” She sniffled. “I love you guys too.”
“Mssh Wndee, we…” Aron mumbled into her right breast.
“Cnt Bweef.” Nora mumbled into her left.
“Oh, sorry.” Windy laughed as she let them go, wiping her eyes. Glancing over, she spied the pool and started over to it; shedding her clothes as she walked. She dove in and upon surfacing, waved the brothers over. “Get over here my little pool toys.” She ordered rather seductively; Aron and Nora looked at each other for a moment before ditching their shorts and jumping in to join her.
As the day grew later, Windy returned to the cabin only to find Evershy and Daydream snuggled in bed together. The startled pairing popped up from the covers to see her grinning at them.
“Well, it’s about damn time.” Windy chortled. “I was getting ready to fuck the poor kid myself.”
“Windy, we… wait, you were?” Evershy asked, a twinge of disapproving jealousy in her voice.
“Ooh, careful with that stare.” She giggled as she went to the dresser. “I’m glad, you two were about ready to explode.” Glancing back at the bed she noticed a few, heavy wet spots. “Although, maybe that’s exactly what happened.”
“Okay, you can stop it now.” Evershy blushed with embarrassment.
“She’s not wrong.” Daydream smiled as he hugged her.
“Hey, I’m not judging.” Windy pulled a new top out and swapped it with the one she had on. “Aron, Nora and I just ruined the third level pool.” She paused. “I hope nobody tries to swim in it now.”
“I’ll… make a note.” Daydream promised. “I should probably make another round of the ship anyhow, it’s been a few hours since I touched base with the rest of the crew.” He caressed Evershy’s cheek and kissed her. “I’ll see you tonight.”
“Okay.” She whispered, kissing his nose.
Grabbing his shorts, he threw them back on and headed out the door. Windy sashayed over to the bed and sat beside Evershy as she rested against the wall. “So, how was it?” She asked.
“It was great.” Evershy admitted with a sheepish smile.
“Well, since we both worked up an appetite, how about we grab dinner.” Windy suggested.
“Sure.” Evershy pulled the sheets off and stood from the bed, yelping as Windy’s hand smacked her ass. “Hey!” She looked back, rubbing her cheek.
“Sorry, you know I can’t resist that butt of yours.” Windy winked.
That night, the ship felt like a normal cruise for the first time. The guests were out under the stars; talking, laughing and dining with the crew. The specter of Solstice’s madness was no longer over them and they were able to relax. The night came and went, and come the early afternoon the ship was approached by a modest fleet of smaller crafts. Daydream, having assumed a role of leadership, met with the mainland authorities. Due to the nature of the situation, they had brought medical staff, a forensics team, a pair of trauma councilors and detectives from the city’s police department. They took command of the ship, as expected, and ordered the crew to put them on a course back to the harbor. Once the ship was underway, the rigorous process of investigating the situation began. Solstice’s comatose body was handed over and although still unresponsive, he was given a once over by the medical staff before being cuffed and restrained. The corpse of the Captain was also taken, placed into a body bag and moved into one of the lower level freezers for the time being. The guests and crew were all given numbers and called via the P.A. one by one to be interviewed and give statements. As their debriefing ended, they were then handed off to the trauma councilors for another interview to check on their mental and emotional health. Ben took the forensics team down below to show them Solstice’s lab as well as the numerous crates of illegal drugs. The day was long and exhausting for every creature; once both Windy and Evershy had their turn through the wringer they decided to get away from everything and relax in the fitness center’s sauna. Wrapped in towels, the two mares breathed in the steam while they rested against each other.
“Who knew the good guys could be just as stressful as the bad guy?” Windy sighed.
“I understand.” Evershy said. “I mean, this situation is absolutely crazy and I’m sure the investigation is going to carry on for some time.” Her eyes popped open. “Oh, there is no way this isn’t making the news… every creature we know is going to find out about this, not to mention the girls.”
“Easy.” Windy calmed her panicking bestie. “You’re right, but we’ll deal with that when we get back to the mainland.” She put her arm around her. “And we’ll deal with it together.” She tilted Evershy’s head and put her lips against hers.
“Sorry, I’m just stressed from all the questioning and interviewing.” Evershy admitted.
“Well, I might be able to help with that.” Windy nuzzled the top of her head.
“Can you?” Evershy asked with a laugh.
“Just let me work my magic.” Windy stood and pulled her towel off, tossing it across the sauna. She reached down into Evershy’s cleavage and pulled her towel open, her soft body glistening with sweat. Pushing her down onto the long, wooden bench; Windy licked the salty fluid from Evershy’s neck and chest. Laying on top of her; their slippery, warm bodies slid against one another as they kissed. Windy pulled Evershy’s leg up and laid back on the bench, scissoring her with a smile as their lower lips passionately kissed. Evershy fell into heavy moans as Windy ground herself against her, rolling her hips to create as much friction as possible. “Come on, Shy.” Windy growled. “You know what I want.” The two of them sat up, balancing on one arm and pushing themselves into each other as hard as they could. They sweated even harder in the heated room, their legs and thighs sliding across each other with ease as they worked their hips with abandon.
“Ah… Windy!” Evershy reached out with her free hand and pulled her into a kiss, screaming into her mouth as she drenched the bench. Windy let her fall back onto the seat as she kept going; leaning forward and pushing Evershy’s leg back, she rode her labia wildly.
“Fuck! I’m gonna cum, Shy!” The enclosed, brick structure echoed with her yell as she climaxed. Evershy gripped the edge of the bench as Windy thrashed, biting her lip as her sensitive clit was pleasured past its limit. Windy finally fell forward onto her, burying her face in Evershy’s neck. “Oh… phew…” She panted. “De-stressed now?”
“Uh huh.” Evershy hugged onto her, her breath strained from the steam. “But we should get out of here before we die.” She laughed.
“Yeah, good idea.” Windy chuckled, lightheaded from being overheated.
Making it back to the changing room and getting dressed again, the cool evening air felt amazing as they made it back up to the main deck. They noticed the lack of crew members about as they walked back to the cabin and began to wonder what was going on. The boys didn’t come back until nearly nine o’clock; as they filed into the room Evershy was quick to question them.
“There you are.” She looked them over. “We were getting worried, what happened?”
“Well, the crew was gathered for a mass meeting with the detectives.” Ben explained as he loped by them.
“Good news is, none of the guests are filing charges against us for what happened.” Daydream continued, his voice filled with relief. “We got an earful though and more than a few reminders of how lucky we are.”
“That’s great.” Evershy hugged him. “I was worried about that.”
“So what’s the bad news?” Windy asked.
“The ship is being…” Aron began.
“Taken by the authorities.” Nora concluded.
“So we are…” Aron continued.
“Officially unemployed.” Nora ended.
“I’ll take jobless birds over jail birds any day of the week.” Windy put her arms around them.
“We figured this would happen anyway.” Ben interjected. “So it isn’t that big a surprise.”
“What about Solstice?” Evershy inquired.
“Still out cold.” Daydream shrugged. “They’re going to take him in but he’s going to be in the hospital until they figure out just what the hell happened to him.” He sighed. “The captain is bagged and is going to be autopsied to find out the cause of death.”
“We should be back to harbor by the end of the day tomorrow.” Ben folded his arms. “Guess it’s really over.”
“Hey, we’ve still got one more day then.” Windy hugged his side. “Let’s just spend it together.”
“I can go for that.” Daydream took Evershy’s hands in his. “Might as well go out on a high note.”
“Free booze is on me!” Windy hurried over to the phone to contact room service under the laughter of her friends.
Finally able to be together to celebrate their victory as a group, they refused to let their last day together be a somber one. Despite the ship being under the control of the coast guard, the guests and crew made their final day aboard fun. The live bands took up their instruments again and the main deck was fashioned into a block party. The afternoon brought the mainland into the horizon and everyone packed up and prepared to disembark. The coast guard oversaw the process, making sure every creature on the passenger roster was accounted for. Windy and Evershy waited along the dock for Daydream and the others as the crew was released last.
“Evershy!” Daydream’s hand popped up amongst the moving crowd.
“Over here!” She waved back. The boys walked with them until they were at the base of the parking structure. Seeing it made them all a bit sad, the time finally coming to say goodbye.
“Well, guess this is it.” Daydream managed a smile as he went to Evershy.
Evershy hugged him tightly, setting her cheek to his chest. “Thank you, all of you. In spite of everything, this trip was amazing and I’m glad we got to meet you.”
“Same here.” He kissed the top of her head, nuzzling her fragrant hair. “I’m going to miss you, Evershy. I don’t know who your husband is… but I don’t think I’ve ever been more jealous of any creature before.” He laughed.
“Daydream.” She looked up at him with a sincere smile. “You’re a wonderful guy, I know that if you look in the right places you’ll find some mare even better than me.”
“I’m not holding my breath.” He kissed her.
“What about you, B.B.?” Windy slapped his good arm. “What’s the plan?”
“Well, we’ve actually been talking about that.” He slowly nodded. “We’re going to stick together for the time being; find some work and get a roof over our heads.”
“Really?” Evershy asked.
“Yeah.” Daydream confirmed. “Figure we’ve got a better chance together.”
“That’s awesome.” Windy applauded.
“Afer that…” Ben smiled. “I’m going to get my G.E.D. and look into some student aid for college tuition. I’m not going to spend my life being a boy toy.”
“That’s great, B.B.” Windy said proudly.
“Canyon.” He said.
“Huh?” Windy eyed him.
“My name… it's Canyon.”
“Canyon eh.” She smirked. “I like B.B. better.”
He laughed. “Me too.” Kneeling down he put his arms around her and squeezed her tightly.
“You’ll do just fine out there, B.B.” She patted his back. “You’ve got nothing to worry about; and I’ll be rooting for you the whole time.”
“Thank you.” He kissed her cheek.
Windy turned to the twins, their lone eyes deeply saddened at the idea of saying goodbye to her. “Boys.” She teared up as she went to them, realizing how attached she had truly become.
“We’ll miss you…” Aron said shakily.
“Mrs. Windy.” Nora said in similar fashion.
Windy lowered herself and placed her hands under the plumage over their eyes. She pushed it back over their heads, gasping as she found that their hidden eyes were emerald green. Smiling at the beautiful surprise, she set her hands to their cheeks. “I’m going to miss you guys too.”
“Will we ever…” Aron began.
“See you again?” Nora ended the question.
“I hope so.” Windy said earnestly. “You two take care of yourselves, and remember what I said about staying confident.”
“We will…” Aron hugged her right side.
“Mrs. Windy.” Nora hugged her left.
With a final round of farewells, Windy and Evershy ascended the parking structure and returned to her car. Windy quietly put their luggage in the trunk, finding Evershy sitting on the hood as she closed the door. “Shy?” She went to her, observing the distant look in her eyes.
“I’m scared to go home, Windy.” She admitted, looking up at her. “So much has happened and I… I have to tell Cirrus the truth. About you, about Daydream… all of it.” Her eyes watered. “I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
“Hey.” Windy sat at her side, putting her arm around her. “I’ll talk to him with you.” She promised. “I don’t know what’s going to happen either; but whatever happens, I’ll be with you the whole time.” She laid her head to hers. “I’m always going to be by your side from now on. I’ve spent too long wanting to be with you to be anywhere else.”
Evershy started to cry, hugging her fiercely. “Thank you, Windy.” She sobbed.
“I love you, Shy.” Windy pulled her as close as physically possible.
“I love you too.”
“Come on.” Windy ran her fingers through Evershy’s hair. “Let’s go face life, together.”
“Right.” Wiping her eyes, Evershy nodded confidently.
They hopped in the car and Windy sped out of the empty structure; taking to the highway with one hand on the wheel and the other holding Evershy’s.
Epilogue:
A detective walked the corridors of St. Marianne General, heading for the psychiatric ward. The grisled stallion made his way into the office, asking the receptionist to get the presiding physician.
“Ah, you must be Detective Anaheim.” The doctor took his hand. “Dr. Hancock.”
“Right, good to meet you.” Anaheim nodded. “So, what’s the deal with this guy?”
“Well, that’s… complicated .” Hancock bid him to follow. They entered the recesses of the ward, passing by observation rooms with various patients. Stopping at the third to last room, Hancock gestured to the viewing window.
“That him?” Anaheim asked. “Solstice, right?”
“According to records, yes.” Hancock confirmed.
“I got the gist of what happened from the police reports.” Anaheim watched as a nurse spoon fed Solstice while he stared at the glass with empty eyes. “Chemical weapon using heavy drug compounds. So what exactly happened to him?”
“Well, the labs are still trying to reverse engineer his concoctions.” Hancock sighed. “We know basically what went into them, but their full nature is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. It’s a shame, the work itself is genius.”
“Fine line between genius and lunatic, doc.” Anaheim said profoundly.
“I suppose so.” Hancock conceded. “In any case, he was exposed to all of the compounds simultaneously. His amygdala, and subsequently his limbic system, were overloaded and damaged beyond repair.”
“English.” Anaheim raised his brow.
“Basically, for a few agonizing moments, he felt everything at once… now… he feels nothing at all.”
“So he’s a zuchinni now?”
“No, he isn’t vegetative.” Hancock assured. “He just… is no longer capable of emotional response. We have to feed and bathe him because he no longer seems to feel the need or desire for self preservation.”
“How long is he going to be like this?” Anaheim inquired. “He’s got a lot to answer for, not least of which being homicide.”
“I can’t say if he will ever recover.” Hancock shook his head. “Like I said, we’ve never seen anything like this.”
“Fine, just keep the department updated on his condition.” With a sigh, Anaheim followed the doctor back out of the ward.
Back inside the observation room, the nurse finished Solstice’s feeding and began to clean up. “There we go.” She said cheerfully as she laid him down on the bed. “Now, just get some rest and I’ll be back tonight for dinner and a nice hot bath, doesn’t that sound nice?” She asked, her only response a blank stare. “I’ll turn the light out for you, sleep well.” As her footsteps echoed away, Solstice bolted upright; he swung his legs over the side of the bed and stared at the glass where the detective once stood. An audible crack sounded as his fist balled and his face began to contort. A sickly laugh came from his mouth as his furious eyes began to stream tears that flowed down his cheeks, coming to a rest at the peak of an unnaturally wide smile.
